Each year,the bright light of the Nobel Prize in literature falls across our cultural canvas and illuminates the work of a major writer.
While (41)Cof previous years have gone to writers of prose,poetry and drama the Swedish Academy,which awards the prize,announced on Oct.13that American singer Bob Dylan,75,was this year's winner.However,the prize wasn't given for his 2004self-penned autobiography but"for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition."
It is certainly a(n) (42)Achoice.According to Steve Johnson of the Chicago Tribune,arts awards have almost always exclusively had an inherent bias toward so-called"high culture",a category(43)BD not to include people who got their start singing in coffeehouses.
With that said,the Swedish Academy has made a bold (44)AD to expand the definition of"literature".It has,effect,opened the doors to popular culture,often(45)B to as"low culture".
We live in a world where people who read comic books,watch television shows,listen to podcasts and pop music,are often also those who enjoy poetry and opera.And the Nobel,in (46)ABC Dylan's work as literature,acknowledges that artists create works of popular culture with just as much care,control,courage and (47)CD as Ernest Hemingway did sitting down at his typewriter.
Dylan experts can battle over whether or not the singer indeed writes poetry-he was given the prize for his lyrics and music.
If music and lyrics count as literature,as plays have done,could not other forms?Could we,someday,see a Nobel in literature go to US TV producers David Simon,Japanese animator Hayao Miyazaki,or even US singer Beyonce?
As Los Angeles Times pop music(48)AB Robert Hilburn said about Dylan's work:"He's great cultural figure because of his words and his ideas."
And for all the flash and bang of any performed art or filmed project,it's the words that(49)BC,wrote Carolyn Kellogg of the Los Angeles Times.
American TV series Breaking Bad (2008-2013)didn't exist without US actor Bryan Cranston's brilliant performance--but he couldn't have gotten there without the words on the page.
Dylan's Nobel says that words don't have to be bound within (50)AC to be literature.It's possible the Swedish Academy will back off its radical choice.But for now,literature is all around us.Read it,listen to it or watch it.
分析 本文讲述了诺贝尔文学奖的发展史,从一开始只承认所谓的"高雅文化"才属于文化范畴,到后来渐渐承认流行文化以及文字艺术也属于文化的一部分,也能获得诺贝尔文学奖.
解答 41-50.C A BD AD B ABC CD AB BC AC
41.C.awards 奖项,本文介绍的是诺贝尔奖,所以接下来就是对这一奖项进行介绍.故选C.
42.A.untraditional 非传统的,根据后面的解释,arts awards have almost always exclusively had an inherent bias toward so-called"high culture",可知艺术奖几乎总是对所谓的"高文化"有固有的偏见,这是固有的传统.但是这次却打破了偏见,所以说这是非传统的选择.故选A.
43.BD.tending,tend to 倾向于,正是因为上题所提到的偏见,所以诺贝尔文学奖不倾向于那些从咖啡馆里唱歌而出道的人.故选BD.
44.AD.gesture 动作,根据句意,Swedish Academy 有一个大胆的动作,就是要扩大文学的定义.故选AD.
45.B.referred 涉及,refer to涉及,他的这一做法打开了流行文化的大门,让大众文化涉及到一些"浅层文化".故选B.
46.ABC.recognizing 承认,我们是生活在看漫画书,看电视节目的世界里的人,收听的播客和流行音乐,也往往是那些喜欢诗歌和戏剧.所以诺贝尔奖也要承认这些内容属于文化的一部分.故选ABC.
47.CD.genius 天赋,艺术家创造流行文化作品需要注入同样多的心血,也需要天赋.故选CD.
48.AB.critic 评论家,根据后面对流行音乐家 Dylan 的评论内容"He's great cultural figure because of his words and his ideas"可知,Robert Hilburn 是一个流行音乐评论家.故选AB.
49.BC.count 有价值,所有表演艺术或电影项目的闪光点,都在于语言的价值.故选BC.
50.AC.covers 包含,前面提到了文字的重要性,所以文字的艺术不得不被包含在文学中,就是要承认文字艺术也是文化的一部分.故选AC.
