Many writers complain that their biggest difficulty is finding a subject. Sometimes that difficulty appears less complicated because the subject is identified in a writing assignment. But writing assignments vary in how they are worded, what they assume, and what they expect. For example, you may be asked to discuss two characters in a play you have read. This open assignment does not identify a subject; it merely identifies an area in which a subject needs to be developed. Another version of that same assignment might ask you to compare and contrast the way the two characters make compromises. This closed assignment identifies a subject, but it assumes you how to work with a specific form (comparison and contrast essay) and it expects you to produce specific information. In other words, although the second assignment restricts the subject, you must still select and arrange the subject matter of your essay.
When you have a free choice of subject ,your difficulties may appear more complicated. No one is helping you find your subject.. On the other hand, no one is telling you what to do or how to do it. You’re free to your own decisions. Rather than discussing two characters you have read about in a play, you may decide to compare and contrast two characters you know in your neighborhood. Or better still, you decide to analyze how your favorite character deals with the problem of making compromises.
Whether you are responding to an assignment or creating your own, you need to follow certain measures if you are to find all appropriate subject. First and foremost, you should write about a subject you know or can learn something from. The more you know about your subject, the more likely you’re to shape it according to your unique perspective. In particular, if your subject is familiar to most of your readers, then your personal experience with or research on the subject will help you write about it in terms of your observanons, your ideas and your values. Second, you must determine if your subject is a general subject that you must limit to a specific subject or not. A general subject is a large category of information, such as situation comedies on television. A specific subject focuses on a particular topic within that category, such as the portrayal of professional women. Or a specific subject can reflect a particular attitude or judgment that expresses the writer’s personal view of the general subject. The more you can limit or specify your subject, the more likely you are to concentrate your attention on concrete information rather than vague impressions. Third, to ensure that you are willing to spend time working on your subject, you need to ask yourself three questions about it. Is it significant? Is it interesting? Is it manageable?
选项
A、confine
B、control
C、migrate
D、extend
答案
A
解析
由题干的“restrict” in the first paragraph means定位到原文第一段最后一句In other words,although the second assignment restricts the subject.语义题。该词词义可根据对上文中两个例子的比较进行猜测,一个例子是“对剧本中的两个人物进行讨论”,另一个是“比较两个人物做出让步的方式”,很明显,第二个比第一个范围小得多,所以restrict应表示“限制,局限”,故选A)。[避错]B)“控制”、C)“移植”和D)“延伸”均不符合题意。
