PrepTest 156 - Section 4 - Question 8

Show summary

Support Actors generally learn their lines by focusing on the meanings of the words, the motivations of the characters uttering them, and the physical and emotional dimensions of their own performances. ██ █████ ██████ ████ ██████ ███ ██ ████████ ██ ███████ ████ ██ ████████ ███████ ███ ████████ ██ ████ ████████ ██ ████████ ████ █████████ ████ ████ ████ █████████████

Summarize Argument: Phenomenon-Hypothesis

The author concludes that actors learn lines more effectively by focusing on the meanings, motivations, and physical and emotional aspects of performance, rather than simply using rote memorization. She supports this by hypothesizing that factors like emotion, action, and context can likely improve memory.

Notable Assumptions

The author assumes that, because factors like emotion, action, and context can likely improve memory generally, they also likely improve memory in the context of learning lines. She also assumes that the actors’ approach is more effective than rote memorization without considering any potential benefits of rote memorization.
