发布时间:2017-06-04 15:31:07判断推理模拟题十一、演绎推理在下面的每道题中给出了一段陈述,在这项考试中,本陈述被假定是正确的,不容置疑的。请你根据这段陈述从四个备选答案中选出一个能够从陈述中直接推出的结论。1.作为中国文坛的一大创新,纪实文学近年来成为最热门的写作体裁。但辉煌过后,麻烦也随之而来,指控纪实文学侵害名誉权的官司频频开庭,眼下的一例是某作家的《法撼汾西》与《天网》引出的8位山西老乡当原告,北京市某区人民法院受理此案,成为京城的一大热点。由此可推知:A.纪实文学是中国人首创的B.某作家的两篇纪实文学侵害了8位山西老乡的名誉权C.纪实文学的辉煌时期已经过去D.某作家是一个纪实文学作家2.时间是有方向性的,总是从过去向未来流动。这就是时间之箭。在生物进化过程中,时间的过去与未来是不对称的,这是一个不可逆过程。但生物进化的时间箭头与熵增不同。熵增意味着退化,即旧事物的分解和衰亡;而进化是新事物的产生和发展,它的时间箭头是指向熵减少的。因此A.生物的进化只有一个方向B.生物的演化可分为退化和进化两大类C.生物进化过去用的时间短,未来用的时间长D.熵的变化是没有方向性的3.作为社会基础的生产过程是现实的,是以复杂的形式出现的,包括生产、分配、交换和 消费的全过程。社会睁代的特点是由主要的生产关系决定的,但是,以主要生产关系为中心,还并存着其它附属的生产关系。因此:A.只有存在纯粹的生产关系,才能使一社会时代具有鲜明的特征B.经济基础是综合的,是一社会全部生产关系的总和C.上层建筑决定着一社会的生产关系D.一社会时代主要的生产关系决定着该社会的一切特点4.情感是人类对世界的艺术掌握的重要特征。艺术审美正是要以情感规范艺术对象、以情感感染、启示艺术鉴赏者。因此:A.人类的生活实践是艺术的源泉B.人类对世界的艺术掌握即是情感的掌握C.一切艺术都与情感有关D.艺术都以高尚的人类情感为对象5.尽管资本是价值创造过程中的重要手段,其积累的确是经济增长不可缺少的物质条件,但作为物化劳动或死劳动,它不可能自己创造自己。离开了人的劳动,它只能是一堆不能增值的一般等价物而已。其二,资本并非个人努力的产物,而是集体或社会劳动的结果,从生理学的角度来看,每个人的劳动能力(无论是体力还是脑力)并不存在巨大差别。仅靠占有和积累自己的剩余劳动是不可能暴富的。所以说:A.资本是剩余价值的表现B.暴富只有靠占有别人的剩余价值才能实现C.资本都是社会全体成员的D.在一定条件下,资本也可以创造价值,6.然而,对测验的使用也有许多批评甚至攻击;使用测验有时甚至会带来事与愿违的不良后果。造成这种情况的原因,固然在于测验本身还不是尽善尽美,正像世界上许多东西都非尽善尽美一样,更多的在于人们对测验的误解和误用正像我们时常误解和误用世界上许多其它东西一样。因此:A.我们应该取消测验B.使用测验能使我们解决生活中的一切难题C.还应不断地完善测验并引导人们正确地认识和使用测验D.测验是可有可无的东西7.学者们已经证明;效率与公平是对矛盾统一体。实现共同富裕需要经历若干阶段性过程,不可能一蹴而就,但我们又不能不在每一个阶段为实现共同富裕作具体的准备。因此:A.我们要在重视效率的前提下,兼顾公平B.我们首先要重视公平C.我们要坚持效率优先D.效率与公平之间的矛盾永远不可能得到正确解决8.小刘、小李、小冯三人在英语四级考试后自己估计:小刘说: 我肯定优秀小李说: 我肯定及格了小冯说: 我不可能是优秀成绩下来以后发现;他们三个人全猜错了,并且不及格、及格、优秀各一个。可见:A.小刘丕及格,小李优秀,小冯及格B.小刘优秀,小李及格,小冯不及格C.小刘及格,小李不及格,小冯优秀D.小刘及格,小李优秀,小冯不及格,9.根据边际收益递减规律我们可以知道,在其他投入不变的情况下,随着某一投入量的增加,我们获得的产出增量越来越小,但是在边际成本等于边际收益之前,都是有利可图的。作为一个厂商我们应当:A. 尽可能地减少投入,以保证最大的边际收益B.增加投入,直到边际成本等于边际收益C.尽可能增加投入,以获得最大利润D.维持一个固定的投入量10.世界人均淡水量约8300立方米,但每年2/3以洪水形式流失,其余的1/3为饮用水和灌溉用水,由于工业化和人类用水量的增加,目前世界用水量与1990年相比增加了近10倍。未来的淡水不足是构成经济发展和粮食生产的制约因素之一。因此:A.要减少工业用水B.要减少生活用水C.一方面要节约用水,另一方面应开发利用新的淡水资源,以解决缺水问题D.必须减少人口总数以扩大人均淡水水量二、定义判断11.连续犯,是指行为人基于数个同一的犯罪故意,连续多次实施数个性质相同的犯罪行为,触犯同一罪名的犯罪形态。下列属于连续犯的是:A.某甲为了杀害乙、丙,一次性将药物放人其饭锅内,造成乙、丙同时死亡B.某赌徒为了偿还赌债,先后8次人室行窃,窃得脏款三万余万C.江西一恶匪,流窜全国,多次杀人、抢劫,窃得脏款三万余元D.某出纳员偶然发现单位财务制度存在疏漏,将3000元公款占为已有。后来又再次利用该漏洞贪污8000元12.行政处分,是指国家机关、企事业单位依照法律或规定赋予的权限,根据法律或有关规章制度,按照行政隶属关系,给予违反规章制度或犯有轻微失职行为尚不够刑事处分者的 种制裁。下列不属于行政处分的是:A. 因贪污而被开除公职B.工作失职而被给予党内警告C.因流氓行为被公安机关处以罚款D.因工作不称职而被强制辞退13.保险,是指投保人根据合同约定,向保险人支付保险费,保险人对于合同约定的可能发生的事故因其发生所造成的财产损失承担赔偿保险金责任,或者当被保险人死亡、伤残、疾病或者达到合同约定的年龄、期限时承担给付保险金责任的商业保险行为。下列不属于保险的一项是:A.某食品厂与保险公司签订了企业财产保险合同,食品厂按日交纳保险费,保险公司负责该厂的火灾保险B.李先生与保险公司投保自家的房屋C.村长向村民们保证;使用村委会提供的麦种一定会丰收,否则大家可以罢免他,并要求他赔偿损失D.学生在学校统一购买伤病保险14.不正当竞争是指经营者违反《反不正当竞争法》的规定,损害其他经营者的合法权益,扰乱社会经济秩序的行为。所谓经营者是指从事商品经营或营利性服务的法人、其他经济组织和个人。下列不属于构成不正当竞争行为的要素是:A.违反《反不正当竞争法》的规定B.在经营中吓唬顾客C.损害其他经营者的合法权益D.扰乱社会经济秩序15.挑拨防卫,是指故意挑逗他人对自己进行攻击,然后以 正当防卫 为借口对其加以侵害的行为。下列属于挑拨防卫的是:A.某甲与某乙妻子通奸,被乙痛打,遂产生杀人报复之念。甲先到乙门口把乙妻叫出来,乙追出来便打,甲用匕首将其捅死B.玉、赵二人争吵不休,王说: 你再骂,我就打你! 赵不甘示弱; 你打我试试。 二人是打了起来C.兄弟三人争夺一个家传古砚,老大一气之下将其摔碎,老二老三一起欧打老大,老大奋起反抗D.一无业人员抢夺别人皮包时被抓住,遭到欧打,于是拼命还手,造成对方伤亡,16.行政复议是指公民、法人或其他组织对行政机关的具体行政行为不服,依法向作出具体行政行为的行政机关的上级机关或法律规定的行政机关提出申诉,由其决定是否合法,适当重新审议并做出裁决的行政程序制度。则下列属于行政复议的是:A.一群农民因不满乡政府强制占用其耕地,集体上访,要求县政府为其作主B.菜行政槐关工怍人员因与上司关系不和,被无故停职遂向法院上告以讨还公正C.被告人因不满一审法院的裁决,因而提请上评,要求高级法院重审D.消费者向消费者协会投诉某食品厂生产劣质食品,损害消费者权益17.政治决策就是政府和政党等政治管理主体对政治生活的重大问题制定和选择行动方案的过程,它是对政治生活的方向、目标、原则、方法和步骤进行抉择的过程。下列不属于政治决策的特征的一项是:A.政治性,主要涉及政治生活B.指导性,它是关于政治管理的蓝图设计,决定着政治管理的整个实施过程C.条款性,必定以很多条款来规定D. 权威性,它的行为主体政府给它带来了权威性,18.政策分析是依据一定的政策理论、知识,运用各种分析方法和技术,帮助决策者制定和优化具体政策的过程。下列叙述有误的一项是:A.政策分析必须以一定的政策理论为基础B,政策分析要运用一定的方法和技术c.政策分析就是要把握领导的意图D. 政策分析的目标是帮助决策者制定和优化具体政策19.倾销,指垄断资本家为了击败竞争对手,夺取国外市场,在一定时期内以远远低于国内外市场的价格,甚至低于生产成本的价格抛售商品的一种行为。下列行为属于倾销的是:A. 中国某丝绸出口公司为打开销路,在欧洲五国开展 买一送一 优惠活动B. 江苏的洗衣粉价格普遍比浙江便宜C.日本照相器材企业为挤跨中国的民族产业,将其胶售低于成本五元出售给中国消费者D.美国出口到中国的小麦,由于路途被水淋坏,以原价的七价出售,20.行政实施是指从行政决策一经形成或最后批准时起,行政机关及其工作人员贯彻决策、实施决策的全部活动或整个过程下列不属于行政实施的一项是:A.行政部门为推行一项决策,检查行政决策是否与有关法律法规相抵触B.行政部门执行政策时遇上国庆,放假休息c.行政部门准备执行救灾措施所需要的经费和物资装备D.为推动群众爱卫护城自觉行动,县政府召开动员大会,发布动员令,参考答案1.D 2.B 3.B 4.B 5.B6.C 7.A 8.C 9.A 10.A11.A 12.C 13.B 14.D 15.C16.C 17.D 18.C 19.C 20.A
解放军文职招聘考试文学活动及其理解-解放军文职人员招聘-军队文职考试-红师教育
发布时间:2017-12-17 20:30:49第一节 文学活动及其理解一、 世界(即文学活动所反映的社会性质)文学是一种实践活动,文学活动的本质在于对自然世界的模仿和反映。(1)、古希腊的模仿说:对某事物的论述和对自然的真实反映,具有审美意义,按照A对照去做B。a.柏拉图认为现实世界是文艺的蓝本,文艺是模仿现实世界。b.它是现实世界、艺术世界的本源,因此艺术是 摹本的摹本 、 镜子的镜子 。c.亚里斯多德认为一切艺术实际上是模仿。区别:艺术模仿的不是柏拉图所说的只是世界的外形(现象),而是现实世界的普遍性和必然性。历史叙述已经发生的事情(客观真实、个别具体),诗歌描写可能发生的事情(未必真实、虚构),因此诗歌比历史显示出更多的普遍性和必然性。(2)、文艺复兴时期的镜子说:认为艺术应该向镜子一样,忠实的复现现实世界。(3)、十九世纪的再现说:a.侧重强调文学艺术的客观性和真实性原则,把文艺视为现实客观的真实再现。b.车尔尼雪夫斯基:艺术作品在任何时候都不及现实的美或伟大。(《西方文论选 下》 第411页)二、作者文艺作品是经文艺作家的头脑创作而来的,因此文艺与文艺家的思想、感情、理想、愿望乃至秉赋个性密不可分。表现论是从作者出发来认定文学艺术的本质,把文学归纳为主管内在的表现。在文学四要素中,表现论注重作家与作品的关系。(一)、中国的言志表情说1、《诗大序》: 诗者,在心为志,发言为诗,情动于衷。 认为唐宋至清末,诗歌几乎围绕抒情言志展开。2、特点:①文学所表现的情感是由外物触发的。刘勰: 人禀七情,应物斯感。 ②不主张艺术是情感的直接表现,强调通过比兴寄托情感,使之形象化、客观化,寓情于景,借景抒情。(二)、西方的表现主义理论表现在语意上指通过行为或事物呈现,心理上指内心、情绪通过动作或表情呈现。文艺涉及艺术家在内在精状如何通过艺术传达。如 在心为志,发言为诗,情动于衷而发于言。1、情感表现说:文学的较高价值是表现个人独特的情感(源于浪漫主义)2、本能表现说:二十世纪西方现代美学崇尚直觉、本能和无意识,形成非理性主义的文学思潮。①柏拉图:灵感迷茫说;②柏格森:世界本质是向上创造生命冲动, 意识绵延 ,文学艺术是一种直觉,可以绵延;③弗洛伊德:精神分析说,认为本能欲望是生命最强大的原动力。文学艺术就是本能欲望转移和升华,是人在现实世界中没有得到满足,而通过想象得到代替性的宣泄和补偿,是一种 白日梦 。3、生命表现说:厨川白村(日):生命是人类的根本,在市计生活中生命力受到种种制约、压抑、 不能自由释放。文艺是生命力用绝对的自由而表现的唯一机会 。 郭沫若,二十年代针对达芬奇说艺术家应当作自然的老子,提出生命是文学的本质,文学是生命的反映。生命哲学文艺观(《郭沫若论创作》 上海文艺出版社 1987年)三、作品(自足性)1、作品自产生便具有客观独立性,成为 第二自然 。形式论就是侧重作品的角度来研究文学。2、形式论着眼于文学本身,强调作品独立性,把作品看作既不依赖外部环境,又不依赖创作主题的独立自主地本体。3、作品就是作品本身,仅是一种特殊的语言结构。(一)、形式论历史渊源a.古希腊,形式乃是艺术品的核心与本质。b.毕达哥拉斯主张万物本源不是物质而是数,同样的优秀文艺作品也遵循数的原则。c.康德:美是主观的,不加杂任何利害关系,不依赖概念。作品的形式才是真实和纯粹的每的判断对象,它与再现性内容无关。各种形式主义与纯艺术都直接法院于此。(二)、十九世纪下半叶的唯美主义a.十九世纪八十年代,欧洲主张 为艺术而艺术 ,追求纯粹的美(强调艺术不应涉及政治,须超越现实生活)。b.认为艺术是自足的,艺术的目的反是形成完美的存在,仅是美,是人类产品中具有最高内在价值的东西。(三)、二十世纪的形式主义理论a.提倡纯文学,情调艺术的独立性,英美认为文学不是模仿,不是反映而是创造。拒绝表现论。b.把文学当作语言的一种特殊类型,文学语言和普遍语言是对立的c.普通语言的主要功能与语言外的世界联系,文学语言是以自我为中心,其作用是引人注意它的形式特征。d.雅各布森: 诗歌不是别的东西,而是具有固定表达形式的语言,它对被表达的客体漠不关心附:语言的 陌生化陌生化,即文学通过破坏普通语言交流的方式,使每日耳闻目见的事情变得新奇、陌生、使读者失去的接受新鲜事物的能力得以恢复。(以语法规则的偏见,隐喻、象征、叠加意象等手法造成变异的语言)。艺术张力形式作用于视觉时产生的心理力。这种力类似于物理张力的特征成为张力。形式因素是否有张力,其力度如何并不只是取决于其自身的物理性质和强度,主要由主体心理上的尺度把握的。与常态有距离的或超过心理度的刺激就会产生视觉冲击,拉开的距离越大,张力感越强。艺术形式中也需要有这样一种势能,一种能量源泉,一种双向的引而未发的力,它一旦与人的心灵相对应,就会迸发强大的张力火花(冯骥才《高女人和矮丈夫》),使读者产生强烈的心理震撼和穿透感官的艺术张力,使小说审美价值增值。工具论的观点:实用论关注作品与读者的关系,认为文学是一种工具和手段,强调作品思想性对读者的教化作用。(一)、中国的 文以载道 说 仁爱 、 道是万事万物的本原中国传统观念认为,文学之本不是娱乐、审美,而是具有工具和教化作用。孔子: 诗三百一言以蔽之,曰,思无邪。 汉代《毛诗序》有: 经夫妇,成孝礼,厚人伦,美教化,树风格 的文学说。现代发展为文学为政治服务,文艺 主旋律 说。(二)、西方的 寓教于乐 说1、贺拉斯 寓教于乐 说 诗歌,既劝谕读者,又使人喜爱,才能符合众望 (贺拉斯《诗学》),在教与乐两者中,贺拉斯把教作为目的、根本,把乐作为手段、工具,开西方实用论的先河。2、席勒 对人类进行审美的艺术的教育者提升人性,净化灵魂,改造完善社会的基本途径和手法 (《审美书简》),这里,美是手段,德是目的,诗歌是教化工具,完善人性是根本目的。(三)、功用论的观点评说1、抓住文学作品作为人类一种实践活动的目的既能满足人类需要,有益于人类生存和发展的功利需要 善。2、美包含着善,文艺作品有其积极意义3、文学的基本品格是审美的和非功利的。功用论恰好把本质文学之外的东西当作文学来谈论,把非文学、非审美的东西当作文学的本质,而把属文学本性的所在的审美东西当作附属,作为道德、政治的工具和手段。四、读者1、是文学活动的又一基本要素。2、文学活动不只是作者的创作活动,也包括读者的阅读鉴赏活动3、读者在文论中的地位,受到忠实是在二十世纪六十年代兴起的接受美学之后。4、二十世纪六十年代以后在德国出现接受美学和读者反应批评理论,它将文学接受活动当成文学研究的焦点,其代表人物是姚斯等(读者中心论)5、姚斯将文学看成 读者的文学史 ,将读者提升到文学研究的中心位置。①文学的目的是读者, 文学作品从根本上讲,是注定为接受者而创作的,离开读者,就没有文字,即作品产生于读者与文本相遇和交流过程中,文学作品是作者和读者共同创造的,文学作品的意义乃是由各个时代读者所赋予的,不同时代读者可以从同一个文本中读出不同的意义。 一千个读者有一千个哈姆雷特。 ②读者作为文学接受的主体,不仅是与作者生活于同一世界,同一环境主体,同时也是使文本最终实现其价值的主体。只有经过读者阅读、接受,作者创作的作品才能实现其价值。③读者的接受并非消极的、被动的,而是积极的再创造活动,从更高的历史学层面上看,作品艺术的价值大小,艺术的再生产,从某种意义上讲取决于读者的感受。

The movement was a furtherance of the Renaissance from the 14th century to the mid 17 th century.The purpose of the movement was to enlighten the whole world with the light of modern philosophical and artistic ideas.It celebrated reason of nationality, equality and science. It advocated universal education. Literature at the time became a very popular means of public education. With the introduction of the Enlightenment Movement into England, a revival of interest in the old classical works was in full swing. This tendency is known as the neoclassicism. The neoclassicists held that all forms of literature were to be modeled after the classical works of the ancient Creek and Roman writers. They believed that the artistic ideals should be order, logic, restrained emotion and accuracy, and that literature should be judged in terms of the thematic concern.*Alexander Pope (亚历山大.蒲柏)(1688~1744)Alexander Pope strongly advocated neoclassicism, emphasizing that literary works should be judged by classical rules of order, reason, logic, restrained emotion, good taste and decorum.

It was not American because it was the work mainly immigrants from England. It was not literature as we know it-in the form of poetry, essay, or fiction but rather an interesting mixture of travel accounts and religious writings.

His A True Relation of Virginia(1608)(《关于弗吉尼亚的真实叙述》)was considered to be the first book in American literature. His another well known book was A Map of Virginia with a Description of the County(1612).第三节 清教思想的表述 PuritanismAmerican Puritanism stressed predestination, original sin, total depravity, and limited atonement from God s grace.

It was a rebellion against the objectivity of Rationalism. For romantics, the feelings, intuitions and emotions were more important than reason and common sense.They emphasized Individualism, placing the individual against the group. They affirmed the inner life of the self and cherished strong interest in the past, the wild, the remote, the mysterious and the strange. Early American Romanticism was best represented by New England Fenimore Cooper and Washington Irving in fiction.*Walt Whitman(沃特.惠特曼)(1819~1892)Leaves of Grass《草叶集》It is a monumental work for its uniquely poetic embodiment of American democratic ideals. Most of the poems in it sing of the en-mass and the self as well.Song and Myself《自我之歌》In it, Whitman s own early experience may well be identified with the childhood of a young growing America, and he sets forth the principal beliefs of both the theory of universality and singularity and equality of all beings in value.Whitman is also innovative in terms of the form of his poetry.

A reaction against Romanticism, an interest in scientific method, the systematizing of the study of documentary history, and the influence of rational philosophy all affected the rise of Realism in American literature, the term Realism encompasses the period of time from the Civil War to the turn of the century during which Henry James, Mark Twain, and others wrote fiction devoted to accurate representation and an exploration of American lives in various contexts. As the United States grew rapidly after the Civil War, the widely felt disillusionment and frustration, the increasing rates of democracy and literary, the rapid growth in industrialism and urbanization, an expanding population base due to immigration, and a relatve rise in middle-class affluence provided a fertile literary environment for readers interested in understanding these rapid shifts in culture . What had been expected to be a Golden Age turned to be a Gilded Age . The Age of Realism is also called The Gilded Age by Mark Twain.Major Features of Realism in American Literature:1)Straightforward or matter-of-fact manner.2)Focus on commonness of the lives of the common people.3)Objective rather than idealistic view of human nature.4)Present moral visions.5)Usually open ending.II真题详解1.William Sidney Porter, known as O.Henry, is most famous for___C___.(2005)A.his poems B.his plays C.his short stories D.his novels2.Who wrote The American?(2005)CA.Herman Melville B.Nathaniel HawthorneC.Henry James D.Theodore Dreiser3.The Financier is written by__D___.(2010)A.Mark Twain B.Henry JamesC.William Faulkner D.Theodore DreiserIII练习题1.The Age of Realism in the literary history of the United States refers to the period from __D____ to______.A.1861/1920 B.1865/1920 C.1861/1914 D.1865/19142.Mark Twain is well-known for his___C___.A.frontier theme B. symbolism C.local color D.international theme3.The major trend in American literature in the seventies and eighties of the 19 th century is_B____.A.Romanticism B.Realism C.Sentimentalism D.Naturalism4.The three dominant figures of the American Realistic Period are the following EXCEPT___A__.A.Jack London B.William Dean HowellsC.Mark Twain D.Henry James5.Whose fame largely rested on his handling of the international theme?DA.Mark Twain B.Stephen CraneC.Theodore D.Henry James6.The book that gives a fairly accurate picture of southern plantation life is__C___.A.An American Tragedy B.The Call of the WildC.Uncle Tom s Cabin D.A Hazard of New Fortunes7.__B____expresses Jack London s view that success means an adaptation to circumstances a coordination of inner energy and external force.A.Martin Eden B.The Call of the WildC.White Fang D.The Sea-Wolf8.Jack London wrote___A___as an attack on Individualism .A.Martin Eden B.The Call of the WildC.White Fang D.The Sea Wolf9.Which of the following statements is NOT true of the American naturalists?AA.They stressed the possible triumph of human will.B.They ventured the forbidden subjects such as sex, death, and violence.C.They wrote in a daring, open, and direct manner.D.They see human beings no more than a physical object under the control of biological and environmental forces.10___D__is regarded as one of the finest psychological fiction writers in America because he explored the motivations and frustration of his fictional characters in terms of Freudianism.A.Jack London B.Mark TwainB.Stephen Crane D.Sherwood Anderson11.In 1900, Jack London published his first collection of short stories, named__A____.A.The Son of the Wolf B.The Sea WolfC.The Law of Life D.White Fang12.Which book is NOT written by Mark Twain?DA.The Gilded AgeB.The Prince and the PauperC.Life on the MississippiD.The Portrait of a Lady13.

These two themes are frequently combined into introspective social critricism, in which the poet explores the depths of his own feelings with regard to what appears to him to be the injustices of the society that forms his environment.During the first decade of the 20 th century , Modernism became an international tendency. The essence of Modernism was a break with the past and fostered self fulfillment. Modernism displayed its momentum first in the movement of Imagism.第二节 现代小说 Modern FictionLost Generation included the young English and American expatriates as well as men and women caught in the war and cut off from the old values and yet unable to come to terms with the new era when civilization had gone mad.The Beat Generation was a product of the time. Social and intellectual changes of the 1950s in American catalyzed the Beat Movement. The Beat Generation was a generation who affected an alienation form general society because they rejected conventional social and moral values.*Ernest Hemingway(欧内斯特.海明威)He was generally regarded as spokesman for the Lost Generation. He was famous for his novels and short stories written in his spare, laconic, yet intense prose with short sentences and very specific details. Almost all his stories deal with the theme of courage in face of tragedy. They reveal man s impotence and despairing courage to assert himself against overwhelming odds.*William Faulkner(威廉.福克纳)(1897~1962)He was the foremost southern writer of the 20 th century. His theme is essentially an analysis of the underlying cause for the failure and decay of the South before the Civil War.His fiction carries a strong sense of fragmentation in social community and within the individual himself due to loss of love and lack of emotional response.II真题详解1.The novel For Whom the Bell Tolls is written by___D__.(2006)A.Scott Fitzgerald B.William FaulknerC.Eugene O Neil D.Ernest Hemingway2.Death of a Salesman was written by__A____.(2007)A.Arthur Miller B.Ernest HemingwayC.Ralph Ellison D.James BaldwinIII练习题1.The leader of the imagist movement in American literature is__B____.A.Wallace Stevens B.Ezra PoundC.Robert Frost D.Thomas Stearns Eliot2.__C____wrote about the disintegration of the old social system in the American Southern States.A.Jerome David Salinger B.John UpdikeC.William Faulkner D.F.
