這文章老規矩，沒必要看到全部，以下關鍵在兩句話而已，其他的我就來隨便講好了，多少也要讓文章不要那麼留空，哈哈
首先看到了紅色的『分號』; rather，這就是表式我話還沒講完屁孩沒放完，我還想補充，所以補充說明用，那邏輯上來說必然延續前面的邏輯，那我們在抓主幹時，目的在於用極少內容得知道他的文章主題以及寫作文體，也就是哺陳方式，那此分號後段部分作為補充，比較我們的目的，他的存在略顯多餘，不要看！！接著往下看到雙重版本前方有個代名詞this表示上面內容有提過，這裡用代詞來做替換，那這裡講到dual『雙』，那我們往『並列』句找即可，因此望前找到 integration or the economic and moral promise of the American dream，中間的and是形容詞economic and moral，並列不是句子邏輯用的，我們就關心這個or即可，也就是主題句下來給出兩個東西是工存的， integration or promise，然後就呼應到主題句了啊，那這不就是補充的意思，講同樣一件事情，這感覺就好像白居易的琵琶行：『大絃嘈嘈如急雨，小絃切切如私語，嘈嘈切切錯雜彈，大珠小珠落玉盤。』如何～看到那個嘈嘈切切就是架構上的整合。所以一樣不用看，可是該句我們連主要子句都還沒看到，怎可如此斬釘截鐵，原因是accept，整句沒有出現負向字啊，那便當邏輯順承囉，我管他內容怎麼寫，不看就是不看。再往下看到Indeed這表示強調性的副詞啊，強調意思就是加油添醋，火上加油，錦上添花，所以邏輯還是同向啊，當是在做補充而已，當然，請再次忽略，別讓強調句耽誤您的人生，細節一在意，那可是GRE考一生啊，千萬不要～～，最後看到 for example, 這之前講過金城武的例子，我就偷懶了～～。真正該看的內容就這麼多，不到兩句。
In Raisin in the Sun, Lorraine Hansberry does not reject integration or the economic and moral promise of the American dream
主題就是這兩個integration，promise
But the play's complex view of Black self-esteem and human solidarity as compatible is no more "contradictory" than Du Bois' famous, well-considered ideal of ethnic self-awareness coexisting with human unity, or Fanon's emphasis on an ideal internationalism that also accommodates national identities and roles.（or開頭的並列，取一個讀就好）
這句話言下之意就是，Black self-esteem and human solidarity ＝human unity,可問題來了，主題句跟這一句都在講『團結統合』，可是幹嘛要有But，這轉折怎麼可以隨便出現呢？因此我們就必須探討他到底是在做文章的邏輯轉折，還是細節內部的對象對比，既然邏輯同向，因此就不是文章的邏輯改變了，所以我們來檢視第二種可能性，the play's complex view此表代名詞，意味著跟上一句話有關，那這樣我們上一句請出來，看到Isaacs, for example, cannot easily reconcile Hansberry's intense concern for her race with her ideal of human reconciliation.這可是舉例啊，然後轉折蘊含著地位對等的意思，同等地位屬性的東西才能比啊，通俗一點『懶叫比雞腿』聽說過吧，就是這種感覺，好的所以他在對比的東西正是Isaacs的論點，所以不用看了拉，在做細節上的補充，不會影響主幹，但我覺得這裡文章寫法實在是棒，我又多榴槤了一回，看！！cannot easily reconcile Hansberry's intense，無法調和對應到...as compatible is...可以兼容，完美展現BUT的張力，真厲害，ETS不簡單。
其實我真的只覺得只有integration，promise，這兩個該記而已
6.The author's primary purpose in this passage is to
(A) explain some critics' refusal to consider Raisin in the Sun a deliberately ironic play
(B)suggest that ironic nuances ally Raisin in the Sun with Du Bois' and Fanon's writings
(C) analyze the fundamental dramatic conflicts in Raisin in the Sun
(D) justify the inclusion of contradictory elements in Raisin in the Sun
(E) affirm the thematic coherence underlying Raisin in the Sun
解題：
那個副詞primary不是塑膠做的啊，這句意味著往主題句找，假設整個文章沒出現其他觀點，或是反駁觀點，剛剛已經分析過了那個BUT是細節裡面的東西，我們只要找主題句的內容直接去找相似的字就好了，因此integration＝coherence，結案，選（Ｅ）
補充：
（Ａ） deliberately ironic play（Ｂ）ironic nuances（Ｃ）conflicts in Raisin in the Sun，這都是剛剛在話結構圖時都被我刪掉的東西，就是因為他不是primary
（Ｄ）剛好在考判斷那個BUT，所以它跟（Ｅ）一正一反。
7. Select the sentence that the author of the passage reinforce his criticism of responses such as Isaacs' to Raisin in the Sun
這題關鍵字在responses，有回應一定是內容之後，那我們要回應啥內容，這個Isaacs' to Raisin in the Sun，因此回看該句的位置，再往下看，只發現剩下一句，也真委屈，就是他了
But the play's complex view of Black self-esteem and human solidarity as compatible is no more "contradictory" than Du Bois' famous, well-considered ideal of ethnic self-awareness coexisting with human unity, or Fanon's emphasis on an ideal internationalism that also accommodates national identities and roles.
補充：
如果還有其他句子可以選怎麼辦，這裡就要開始去看到題目上的每個字的定義了，其中看到reinforce這表示額外的提示，做進一步的力道支持，那這樣我們看到the play's complex view這個the的用意不就是上一句的主題這一句繼續講，因此也就吻合reinforce定義，to strengthen by additional assistance，再來我們還是必須驗算看看是否他們倆是呈現相關性的，由BUT出發，所以知道邏輯相反，因此可已對到cannot reconcile ，無法調和對應到...as compatible is...可以兼容，兩句話完美結合。
8.The author of the passage would probably consider which of the following judgments to be most similar to the reasoning of critics?
(A) The world is certainly flat; therefore, the person proposing to sail around it is unquestionably foolhardy.
(B) Radioactivity cannot be directly perceived; therefore, a scientist could not possibly control it in a laboratory.
(C) The painter of this picture could not intend it to be funny, therefore, its humor must result from a lack of skill.
(D) Traditional social mores are beneficial to culture; therefore, anyone who deviates from them acts destructively.
(E) Filmmakers who produce documentaries deal exclusively with facts; therefore, a filmmaker who reinterprets particular events is misleading us.
解題：
關鍵字在reasoning，這表示他不是在考主幹了，他在考：請找出理由，理由就是要來說服大眾我說的主題是對的，因此等等考題必然是在細節裡挖，可是我剛剛都跳光光了，怎麼看，安拉～～我們在來整理一下順序，用麻吉弟弟的方法『倒著唸』來說明，首先文章BUT不管，因為他是在跟上一句的 for example,做對比，而他是細節沒錯，但是就是因為這個for example，使得我沒必要停留，因為文章結構是舉例必然伴隨在觀點之後，所以他是後面的東西，因此還要再往上找，此時我們找到Indeed，啊呀～～可惜了，這是強調句啊～所以也是所謂多出來加強邏輯用的而已，因此再往上，很好 Once we recognize this dual vision, we can accept the play's ironic nuances as deliberate social commentaries by Hansberry rather than as the "unintentional" irony that Bigsby attributes to the work.這句話很好的意思是因為綠色部分承接主題，逗點後句主題部分又承接以下的強調句跟舉例，所以他是『最重要的理由核心』，找到目標之後，把關鍵字拉出來，答案應該就呼之欲出了，ironic nuances as deliberate rather than as the "unintentional" irony ，（Ｃ）not intend，還真夠酸，選（Ｃ）
