一 OG  真题 section 4  Question 8    P 387

8. Which of the following statements about Voltaire’s Elements of the Philosophy of
Newton can be inferred from the passage?
A Voltaire’s literary stature helped secure a large audience for this attempt to popularize Newton’s ideas.
答案解释说A时对的 ,因为文中给出的Voltaire’s book commanded a wide audience, according to Feingold, because “he was neither a mathematician nor a physicist, but a literary giant aloof from the academic disputes over Newtonian ideas.”中,literary giant代表了他有a large audience。我觉得理解不了?谁能解释下呢?

二 OG 真题 Section4  Q 14-16
阅读中的这句话如何理解Perhaps DuBois the novelist must wait his turn behind DuBois the philosopher, historian, and editor.  为什么后面Dubois和philosopher, historian, editor要连在一起?语法是什么结构呢?

这句话在下一段文章中:

It would be expected that a novel by a figure as prominent as W. E. B. DuBois would attract the attention of literary critics. Additionally, when the novel subtly engages the issue of race, as DuBois’ The Quest of the Silver Fleece (1911) does, it would be a surprise not to encounter an abundance of scholarly work about that text. But though valuable scholarship has examined DuBois’ political and historical thought, his novels have received scant attention. Perhaps DuBois the novelist must wait his turn behind DuBois the philosopher, historian, and editor. But what if the truth lies elsewhere: what if his novels do not speak to current concerns?

第一题,原文中的a wide audience对应选项中的a large audience,原文中说Voltaire的书吸引了一大群读者because he was  a literary giant,在not/neither...but...的句型中,重点在后半句。选项中 literary stature 对应原文literary giant
第二题,我的理解是 DuBois 他作为一个小说家的地位,要排在他作为哲学家,历史学家,和编辑的地位之后,其实隐含的意思就是他小说家的身份没有他其他的身份那么有名,就是没有肯定他在小说方面的成就。这样理解不知道对你有没有帮助~加油哈~
