He found the house gone to decay -- the roof fallen in, the windows shattered, and the doors off the hinges. A half starved dog, that looked like Wolf, was skulking about it. Rip called him by name, but the cur snarled, showed his teeth, and passed on. This was an unkind cut indeed -- 'My very dog,' sighed poor Rip, 'has forgotten me!'Questions:A.Identify the author and the work.B.Whom does Dame Van Winkle refer to?C.Why was it difficult for him to find his house?Passage 5"From the listless repose of the place, and the peculiar character of its inhabitants, who are descendants from the original Dutch settlers, this sequestered glen has long been known by the name of SLEEPY HOLLOW, andits rustic lads are called the Sleepy Hollow Boys throughout all the neighboring country. Drowsy, dreamy influence seems to hang over the land, and to pervade the very atmosphere. Some say that the place was bewitched by a high German doctor, during the early days of the settlement; others, that an old Indian chief, the product or wizard of his tribe, held his powwows there before the country was discovered by Master Hendrick Hudson."Questions:A.Who is the writer of this short story from which the passage is taken?B.What is the title of this short story?C.Give a definition of" short story".Passage 6"To go into solitude, a man needs to retire as much from his chamber as from society. I am not solitary whilst I read and write, though nobody is with me. But if a man would be alone, let him look at the stars. The rays that come from those heavenly worlds, will separate between him and vulgar things. One might think the atmosphere was made transparent with this design, to give man, in the heavenly bodies, the perpetual presence of the sublime. Seen in the streets of cities, how great they are! If the stars should appear one night in a thousand years, how would men believe and adore; and preserve for many generations the remembrance of the city of God which had been shown! But every night come out these preachers of beauty, and light the universe with their admonishing smile."Questions:A.Identify the author and the work.B.Give a brief comment on this passage.Passage 7Hester Prynne's term of confinement was now at an end. Her prison-door was thrown open, and she came forth into the sunshine which, falling on all alike, seemed, to her sick and morbid heart, as if meant for no other purpose than to reveal the scarlet letter on her breast. Perhaps there was a more real torture in her first unattended footsteps from the threshold of the prison, than even in the procession and spectacle that have been described, where she was made the common infamy, at which all mankind was summoned to point its finger. Then, she was supposed by an unnatural tension of the nerves, and by all the combative energy of her character, which enabled her to convert the scene into a kind of lurid triumph.Questions:A.Which novel is this selection taken from?B.What is the name of the novelist?C.What do you think is the symbolic meanings of the scarlet letter onHester's breast?Passage 8"Arms and the clarion for the battle, but the song of thanksgiving to the victory!" answered the liberated David. "Friend," he added, thrusting forth his lean, delicate hand forwards Hawkeye, in kindness, while his eyes twinkled and grew moist, "I thank thee the hairs of my head still grow where they were first rooted by Providence for, though those of other men may be more glossy and curling, I have ever found mine own well suited to the brain they shelter. That I did not join myself to the battle, was less owing to disinclination, than to the bonds of the heathen. Valiant and skillful hast thou proved thyself in the conflict, and I hereby thank thee, before proceeding to discharge other and more important duties, because thou hast proved thyself well worthy of a Christian's praise."...Questions:A.This novel was written by the American novelist. What is his name?B.What is the name of the novel?C.The central figure in this novel appeared in this passage. It is .Passage 9I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not Ii'red. I did not wish tolive what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practice resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a comer, and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it proved to be mean, why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, and publish its meanness to the world; or if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and be able to give a tree account of it in my next excursion. For most men, it appears to me, are in a strange uncertainty about it, whether it is of the devil or of God.A.This passage is taken from a famous work entitledB.The author of the work isC.List by yourself at least five reasons that the author gives for going go live in the woods.Passage 10Lo!

What are the two principle beliefs that the poet set forth on this poem?Passage 3"The harpoon was darted; the stricken whale flew forward; with igniting velocity the line ran through the grooves;...ran foul. Arab stopped to clear it; he did clear it; but the flying turn caught him round the neck, and voicelessly as Turkish mutes bowstring their victim, he was shot out of the boat, ere the crew knew the was gone."Questions:A. Identify the author and the work.B. Who is Ahab?C. What happens to Ahab in the end?"It was with some difficulty he found the way to his own house, which he approached with silent awe, expecting every moment to hear the shrill voice of Dame Van Winkle. He found the house gone to decay -- the roof fallen in, the windows shattered, and the doors off the hinges. A half starved dog, that looked like Wolf, was skulking about it. Rip called him by name, but the cur snarled, showed his teeth, and passed on. This was an unkind cut indeed -- 'My very dog,' sighed poor Rip, 'has forgotten me!'Questions:A.

Drowsy, dreamy influence seems to hang over the land, and to pervade the very atmosphere.

But if a man would be alone, let him look at the stars. The rays that come from those heavenly worlds, will separate between him and vulgar things. One might think the atmosphere was made transparent with this design, to give man, in the heavenly bodies, the perpetual presence of the sublime. Seen in the streets of cities, how great they are! If the stars should appear one night in a thousand years, how would men believe and adore; and preserve for many generations the remembrance of the city of God which had been shown! But every night come out these preachers of beauty, and light the universe with their admonishing smile."A. Identify the author and the work.B. Give a brief comment on this passage.Passage 7Hester Prynne's term of confinement was now at an end. Her prison-door was thrown open, and she came forth into the sunshine which, falling on all alike, seemed, to her sick and morbid heart, as if meant for no other purpose than to reveal the scarlet letter on her breast. Perhaps there was a more real torture in her first unattended footsteps from the threshold of the prison, than even in the procession and spectacle that have been described, where she was made the common infamy, at which all mankind was summoned to point its finger. Then, she was supposed by an unnatural tension of the nerves, and by all the combative energy of her character, which enabled her to convert the scene into a kind of lurid triumph.Questions:A. Which novel is this selection taken from?B. What is the name of the novelist?C. What do you think is the symbolic meanings of the scarlet letter onHester's breast?Passage 8"Arms and the clarion for the battle, but the song of thanksgiving to the victory!" answered the liberated David. "Friend," he added, thrusting forth his lean, delicate hand forwards Hawkeye, in kindness, while his eyes twinkled and grew moist, "I thank thee the hairs of my head still grow where they were first rooted by Providence for, though those of other men may be more glossy and curling, I have ever found mine own well suited to the brain they shelter. That I did not join myself to the battle, was less owing to disinclination, than to the bonds of the heathen. Valiant and skillful hast thou proved thyself in the conflict, and I hereby thank thee, before proceeding to discharge other and more important duties, because thou hast proved thyself well worthy of a Christian's praise."...Questions:A. This novel was written by the American novelist. What is his name?B. What is the name of the novel?C. The central figure in this novel appeared in this passage. It is .Passage 9I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if Ilive what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practice resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a comer, and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it proved to be mean, why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, and publish its meanness to the world; or if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and be able to give a tree account of it in my next excursion. For most men, it appears to me, are in a strange uncertainty about it, whether it is of the devil or of God.A. This passage is taken from a famous work entitledB. The author of the work isC. List by yourself at least five reasons that the author gives for going go live in the woods.Passage 10Lo!

五、论述题(本大题共2小题,每小题12分,共24分。

)41.试述古希腊文学的特征。

42.试析《戈拉》中戈拉形象及其意义。

参考答案一、单项选择题1—5. CBAAA 6—10. CDDDC 11—15. DAADD16—20. CDABA 21—25. BDBCA 26. B二、多项选择题27.BCDE 28.ABC 29.BCE 30.BCD 31.BD 32.ABCDE三、名词解释题33. 古典主义:古典主义因崇奉古希腊、罗马文学而得名。

它是法国封建王权和资产阶级相妥协的产物,以笛卡儿的唯理主义哲学为基础,强调理性原则,认为在文学创作中应该遵循理性。

作品多从古希腊罗马神话、历史和传说中选取创作素材,突出体现规范、严整、简练、明晰、崇尚理性的特征,最有代表性的就是戏剧创作中的“三一律”原则。

34. 巴洛克文学:巴洛克用来形容首先出现在意大利的一种崇尚装饰与雕琢的建筑。

这种风格在当时一些国家的文学创作中也有所体现,于是,人们就移用了这个概念指称这种风格的文学创作。

这种创作在内容上偏重表现宗教狂热、对尘世的绝望,情绪为夸张的悲观和颓丧,用词华丽,堆叠辞藻,作品结构常常框架宏阔,叙述风格扑朔迷离。

35. 新思潮派:新思潮派也称新现实主义,它是由文坛上的第三次、第四次《新思潮》杂志的同人所组成,代表作家是芥川龙之介和菊池宽等。

他们否定自然主义纯写实的方法,也不追随白桦派的理想主义,更不在作品中像唯美主义怍家那样表现颓废的美。

他们关注现实,注重对平凡人日常生活和复杂心理的描写,并进行一定的批评和理件的解释。

36. “战壕真实派”:是20世纪50年代中期诞生于苏联的一个文学流派。

作家根据自己的切身体验描绘普通士兵和下级军官们在战场上的遭遇和真实感受,尽力突出战壕真实。

代表作家有邦达列夫等。

37. 新感觉派:是日本现代文坛上的一个文学流派。

其创作在相当程度上接受了西方现代主义文学的影响,企图以新感觉、新认识、新表现来革新文学。

代表作家有横光利一、川端康成等。

四、简答题38. 小说首先从人道主义出发,对劳动人民的苦难命运表示关注和同情。

其次,小说对资本主义社会的法律进行了猛烈批判。

再次,小说对共和主义英雄和巴黎人民起义进行热情赞颂。

此外,.小说还宣扬了作者企图以仁爱感化和开办慈善事业解决社会矛盾的人道主义理想。

39. 聂赫留朵夫是一个“忏悔贵族”的典型。

他青年时期单纯善良,追求真挚的爱情。

但是贵族家庭养成了他的种种恶习,贵族社会和沙俄军队放荡腐败的生活风气使他堕落为自私自利者。

他诱奸了玛丝洛娃,随后又抛弃了她。

10年后,当他在法庭上看到玛丝洛娃时,意识到自己是造成她堕落和不幸的罪魁祸首。

他决心向玛丝洛娃赎罪。

上诉失败后,他放弃财产和贵族生活随玛丝洛娃去西伯利亚。

作者认为聂赫留朵夫最终获得了精神上的“复活”。

他的“复活”是“精神的人”的胜利,这一形象集中体现了托尔斯泰主义的“勿以暴力抗恶”和“道德自我完善”的思想。

40. 小说通过主人公变成甲虫的荒诞故事,对资本主义社会中人的“异化”现象做出深刻揭示。

资本主义社会中,人的异化是与资本主义生产方式并存的普遍现象。

卡夫卡曾说:“不断运动的生活纽带把我们拖向某个地方,至于拖向哪里,我们自己是不得而知的。

我们就像物品,物件,而不像活人。

”《变形记》中的旅行推销员格里高尔一觉醒来,发现自己变成了一只甲虫,看似荒诞不经,实际上却揭示了资本主义社会生活的真实本质,即外在的物的世界和异己的环境对人的挤压,如何使人失去自我、沦为“非人”。

五、论述题41.(1)古希腊文学有着鲜明的人本色彩和命运观念。

古希腊人尽情地展示着人类童年的自然天性,—切都是世俗的、活生生的,绝无宗教恐怖的压抑和彼岸天国的诱惑。

古希腊人的命运观念很快就随着他们对外在自然和内在自我的认识与把握而淡薄,没有积淀成沉重的民族包袱。

(2)现实主义与浪漫主义并存。

古希腊文学的众多篇章程度不同地从不同侧面反映了当时的社会生活,为后人提供了第一手资料;也有相当一部分作品充满了神奇的想象、怪诞的夸张和优美的抒情,表现出浓厚的浪漫色彩。

(3)种类繁多,且具有开创性。

古希腊文学种类齐全,具备了后世几乎所有的文学样式。

除神话、史诗外,还有悲剧、喜剧、寓言、故事、教谕诗、抒情诗、散文、小说等等。

42. 整部作品的中心人物戈拉是泰戈尔塑造的一个印度资产阶级民族主义者和爱国主义者的典型。

作为一位激烈的爱国知识分子,他有强烈的爱国心和民族壮志。

他生活的唯一目标就是要解放祖国。

他的一生,宁死不屈,正直不阿,曾三次面对面地和英国殖民者进行斗争,并被捕入狱,但他绝不向英国殖民者低头。

戈拉的性格是矛盾的。

他持有宗教偏见,错误地认为造成印度一切灾难的根源是人民群众的愚昧无知,是由于知识分子脱离了群众以及忘记了印度的光荣历史,因此当前的任务是唤醒人民,使他们相信自己的力量,恢复对祖国的信仰,尊敬和热爱自己的祖国。

因此他为印度教的一切传统,包括种姓制度、偶像崇拜、妇女无权等落后反动传统辩护,并身体力行,严格遵守印度教的教规,但是他以复归传统种族观念和教规以图振兴国家民族的做法是行不通的。

这不仅造成他自己深刻的内心矛盾,而且还造成他和自己亲人之间的矛盾。

最终,现实教育使他放弃了偏见,树立了为全印度人民造福的思想。

泰戈尔通过戈拉的形象,表达了他自己反对帝国主义、复古主义和种姓制度的主张。
