编辑点评： GRE阅读考试的材料，非常强调逻辑的关系，所以逻辑要点是大家在解GRE阅读题的时候的关键，本文就为大家例举了这样一篇逻辑短文，供大家参考和练习。 随着GRE阅读考试的难度日益增加，大家需要有针对性地进行练习，本文为大家例举的就是逻辑短文的练习，文末还附有答案，供大家更好地练习。 Questions 10 to 12 are based on the following reading passage Hank Morgan, the hero of Mark Twain s A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur s Court, is a nineteenth-century master mechanic who mysteriously awakening in sixth-century Britain, launches what he hopes will be a 5 peaceful revolution to transform Arthurian Britain into an industrialized modern democracy. The novel, written as a spoof of Thomas Malory s Morte d Arthur, a popular collection of fifteenth-century legends about sixth-century Britain, has been made into three upbeat movies and two musical comedies. None of these 10 translations to screen and stage, however, dramatize the anarchy at the conclusion of A Connecticut Yankee, which ends with the violent overthrow of Morgan s three-year-old progressive order and his return to the nineteenth century,where he apparently commits suicide 15 after being labeled a lunatic for his incoherent babblings about drawbridges and battlements. The American public, although enjoying Twain s humor, evidently rejected his cynicism about technological advancement and change through peaceful revolution as antithetical to the United 20 States doctrine of progress. |
