Among academic involved in the study of Northern Renaissance prints (reproducible graphic artworks), an orthodox position can be said to have Line emerged. This position regards Renaissance prints as passive representations of their time-----documents that reliably record contemporary consciousness. In contrast, pioneering studies such as those by Scribner and Moxey take a strikingly different approach, according to which Northern Renaissance prints were purposeful, active, and important shaping forces in the communities that produced them. Scribner, for example, contends that religious and political prints of the German Reformation (CA. 1517-1555) functioned as popular propaganda: tools in a vigorous campaign aimed at altering people's behavior, attitudes, and beliefs

S2 KW1,第一个论点,是一个长句,句子主干this position regards Renaissance print as passive representation. regard...as...,重点在as后面的词语,as后面的词语是抽象词,要找到有实际意义的词,于是往后看reliably record contemporary even, opinions, and beliefs,用来记录那个时代的时间,意见和信仰,后面破折号语义重复,不重要,可以略读
S3 注意提示词in contrast,提出第二轮点,kw2,前半句给出人名,并说different approach,后半句提出这两个人的观点。kw2与kw1对比,kw1=passive representation,kw2=purposeful, active, important shaping forces.
S4 for example, 给出论据,说明S的理论,主干religious and political prints functioned as popular propaganda,冒号后面语义重复,可略读。其中 altering people's behavior, attitudes and beliefs=popular propaganda=purposeful, active=not passive representation.
