Theater Critic: The play La Finestrina, now at Central Theater, was written in Italy in the eighteenth century. The director claims that this production is as similar to the original production as is possible in a modern theater. Although the actor who plays Harlequin the clown gives a performance very reminiscent of the twentieth-century American comedian Groucho Marx, Marx's comic style was very much within the comic acting tradition that had begun in sixteenth-century Italy.

The considerations given best serve as part of an argument that


modern audiences would find it hard to tolerate certain characteristics of a historically accurate performance of an eighteenth-century play

Groucho Marx once performed the part of the character Harlequin in La Finestrina

in the United States the training of actors in the twentieth century is based on principles that do not differ radically from those that underlay the training of actors in eighteenth-century Italy

the performance of the actor who plays Harlequin in La Finestrina does not serve as evidence against the director's claim

the director of La Finestrina must have advised the actor who plays Harlequin to model his performance on comic performances of Groucho Marx

考题讲解

情景:剧院批判者说:中央剧院正上映的剧LF的剧本是于18世纪在意大利完成的。剧的导演说这场剧拍得尽量接近原著。虽然饰演Harlequin小丑的演员演得很怀旧,模仿了20世纪美国演员Groucho Marx,但是,Groucho Marx的风格跟兴起于16世纪意大利的传统风格很像。

C选项:20世纪美国的演员培训是基于跟18世纪意大利的培训相近的规则。文段没有讲到过关于训练演员的事情。

D选项:
Correct. 饰演Harlequin的演员并没有违背导演的意图。因为导演说影片尽量忠实于原著,并且演员也是模仿意大利风格的,所以本选项是最可能被推理出来的。

LF的导演给饰演Harlequin的演员提了建议,让其模仿Groucho Marx文段中没有提到过这一点。
