问题 In Rembrandt’s day, many of his fellow painters portrayed their characters much like the idealized gods of Greek and Roman mythology. Rembrandt differed by painting people in a more realistic and humble manner. He used himself, his family members, and even beggars as models. He viewed these individuals as being just as worthy of immortalization in art as mythological figures. He also fittingly enhanced his work by the use of chiaroscuro, a painting technique where light striking the foregrounded figures dramatically contrasts with a darkened background. Rembrandt reflected his paintings by remaining true to his singular artistic vision and casting his own light on the darkness of conformity.
The author of the passage is primarily concerned with

选项 A、defining the technical methods Rembrandt used in painting his various works
B、providing a brief memoir of Rembrandt’s motivations as a painter
C、explaining how Rembrandt differentiated himself from other painters of his time
D、cataloging the individuals Rembrandt used as models in his works
E、contrasting the works of contemporary painters to the works of Rembrandt

答案C

解析 The best answer is C. According to the passage, Rembrandt’s works differ from those of his contemporaries in several important ways. Explaining those differences is the main point of the passage.
