最近在做TPO22第二篇閱讀的時候覺得有幾題有疑問不知道大家覺得如何 --- Paragraph1 Perceptions of the visible world were greatly altered by the invention of photography in the middle of the nineteenth century.In particular,and quite logically,the art of painting was forever changed,though not always in the ways one might have expected. The realistic and naturalistic painters of the mid-and late-nineteenth century were all intently aware of photography-as a thing to use,to learn from,and react to. Paragraph2 Unlike most major inventions, photography had been long and impatiently awaited.The images produced by the camera obscura,a boxlike device that used a pinhole or lens to throw an image onto a ground-glass screen or a piece of white paper, were already familiar-the device had been much employed by topographical artists like the Italian painter Canaletto in his detailed views of the city of Venice.What was lacking was a way of giving such images permanent form.This was finally achieved by Louis Daguerre(1787-1851),who perfected a way of fixing them on a silvered copper plate.His discovery, the“daguerreotype,” was announced in 1839. --- Q1.What can be inferred from paragraphs 1 and 2 about the effect of photography on nineteenth-century painting? O Photography did not significantly change the way people looked at reality. O Most painters used the images of the camera obscura in preference to those of the daguerreotype. O Painters who were concerned with realistic or naturalistic representation were particularly influenced by photography. O Artists used the long-awaited invention of photography in just the ways they had expected to. 黃金閱讀上這題的答案是第三個選項可是在Paragraph1中有提到 the art of painting was forever changed 那答案中的 particularly influenced 兩者部會很奇怪嗎? ---- Paragraph 4 The two processes produced very different results. The daguerreotype was a unique image that reproduced what was in front of the camera lens in minute, unselective detail and could not be duplicated. The calotype could be made in series, and was thus the equivalent of an etching or an engraving. Its general effect was soft edged and tonal. --- Q2. The word "duplicated" in the passage is closest in meaning to O copied O replaced O handled O clarified 這題的答案是第三個答案後面有註明有爭議我個人覺得是第二個因為怎麼看都不像是第三個大家覺得呢? --- Q3. The phrase "Its general effect" in the passage refers to O the camera lens O the calotype O the etching O the engraving 這題答案是第一個為什麼不是第二個選項呢? -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 59.115.177.11
