Today we“d like to take a glimpse on literary writing. The term “literary writing“ calls

15、 to mind works by writers such as Shakespeare, Milton or Wordsworth; definitive examples of all that the term implies. We instinctively associate the term with characteristics such as artistic merit, creative genius, and the expression of mankind“s noblest qualities. In this lecture I will explore s

16、ome of the characteristics of this kind of writing. Literary works are primarily distinguishable from other pieces of writing by their creative or artistic content. A piece of literature differs from specialized treatises on astronomy, political economy, philosophy, or even history, in part because

17、it appeals, not to a particular class of readers only, but to men and women; and in part because, while the object of the treatise is simply to impart knowledge, one ideal end of the piece of literature, whether it also imparts knowledge or not, is to yield aesthetic satisfaction by the manner of wh

18、ich it handles its theme. In fundamental terms literature is an expression of life through the medium of “language“, but language used more profoundly than when used simply to convey information. Literature is a vital record of what people have seen in life; what they have experienced of it, what th

19、ey have thought and felt about those aspects of it which have the most immediate and enduring interest for all of us. So literary writing, haying creative and artistic content, is more carefully structured and uses words for the rhetorical effect of their flow, their sound, and their emotive and des

20、criptive qualities. Literary writers can also employ lone, rhyme, rhythm, irony, dialogue and its variations such as dialects and slang, and a host of other devices in the construction of a particular prose work, poem or play. Literary writing is, in essence, a “response“, a subjective personal view

21、 which the writer expresses through his themes, ideas, thoughts, reminiscences, using his collection of words to try to evoke a response in his reader. It is not only a question of the artist looking into himself but also a question of his looking into others with the experience he has of himself. H

22、e writes with sympathy because he feels that the other man is like him. Literature is a process of communication; it “helps us to understand life“. Perhaps we should also consider the motivation of the writer as a factor which distinguishes literary from other forms of writing. The writer“s motivati

23、on is the energy that pulls together the strands of his creativity in the shaping of the finished work. Personal motivation is an essential characteristic of literary writing. It is the engine behind creativity, some of the great themes not only in literary writing, but in all the arts: love, death,

24、 war, and peace, seem to provide permanent inspiration for artists. So perhaps an inventory of literary writers“ motives should include the overflowing of their passions, their desire for self-expression, an abiding fascination with humanity in all its variety, the need to come to grips with relatio

25、nships as they really are in the world as it really is, the striving after an ideal world which can exist only in the imagination, and, perhaps at the heart of it all, the need to form, shape things of beauty. The artist needs to resolve conflicts within himself, to reach an understanding, to search

26、 for some credible meaning of life, death, and everything. He is always reaching toward some sort of truth; an artistic creative truth, a truth that resides in the individual artist and needs to be grasped, made real, made understandable. Perhaps in some cases the artist“s motivation could be seen a

27、s a need to create other worlds, in order that they can project real conflicts onto another plane. The many different genres of the novel constitute a particular challenge to the concept of “literary writing“. Detective novels, and science fiction novels, for example, are creative, imaginative, depi

28、ctions of life. We might question their seriousness as literature, or whether they can achieve the high ideals of art, but then we might equally well question the meaning of “seriousness“, and “the high ideals of art“. Popular novels may not deal with life“s great conflicts, or search for truth and

29、beauty, and they may deal with the dark side of life, or escape into the fantastic, but can they still be considered “literature“? Do they still make an important contribution to our understanding of the world, as “real“ literature does? Obviously “literary“ works take an event, an aspect of life as

30、 a nucleus and construct a world around that core. They are works about real people, engaged in the real business of living. They convey knowledge, understanding, experience and are hence considered important. Yet they have in common with the detective and science fiction novels that they are books,

31、 consisting of words that have been used to express something, words that may or may not be read, and may or may not succeed in conveying an understanding of the world they depict. In my view it comes down to subjective value judgments. I believe literature is a “broad church“ which ought to be able

32、 to deal with any subject, and that ultimately it is individual reader, or readers all together, who decide on the value of any particular work and on whether or not it deserves a place in the annals of literary history. Writers aim to show us “ the world“, but no single writer can do this, and “lit

33、erature“ should encompass numerous different kinds of writers because each is trying to show us something which cannot be shown as a whole. Each can only give us his own small fragment of understanding. Ultimately it is those works which endure that should be considered “literature“, those which hav

34、e succeeded in holding firm a fragment of life, to be seen, to be read, to be understood. Perhaps we should let a writer have the last word on summing up the writers“ art: The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life, by artificial means and hold it fixed, so that a hundred years later

35、, when a stranger looks at it, it moves again since it is life. Since man is mortal, the only immortality possible for him is to leave something behind him that is immortal since it will always move. In conclusion, literary writing does embody certain distinguishing characteristics. It is a self-con

36、scious, imaginative mode of writing which uses words not just to convey information, but as an art form. Ultimately it is a response to life. This is the end of the lecture. Thank you very much! 考点 本题考查对信息的概括。 根据听力原文可知，文学作品区别于其他形式作品的特点主要在于它的内容富于创造性、艺术性。根据题干可知，应填名词“特征”，故答案为 feature 或 characteristic。

37、解析： human beings 考点 本题考查重要细节。 根据听力原文可知，文学作品与那些专题论文，诸如天文学、政治经济学、哲学甚至是历史，有很大的不同，部分原因可能是文学作品吸引的不仅是某一类特定的读者，而且还吸引所有的男人与女人，即全人类，所以填 human beings。 解析： language 考点 本题设题点在转折处。 根据听力原文可知，从根本上讲，文学是一种以语言为媒介来表达生活的方式，而文学中的语言比仅仅传达信息时所用的语言更为深刻、广泛，故答案为 language。 解析： author“s opinion 考点 本题设题点在分论点处。 根据听力原文可知，文学记录的是人们所

38、见、所经历、所思、所感的东西，这些东西具有及时性，并且令人很感兴趣，换句话说，文学就是作者的观点，所以填 author“s opinion。 解析： Words 考点 本题设题点在结果处。 根据听力原文可知，文学写作拥有创造性、艺术性的内容，以及缜密的布局结构。词汇应用也非常讲究修辞手法，故答案为 Words，注意首字母大写。 解析： irony 考点 本题设题点在信息列举处。 根据听力原文可知，文学作家可以使用像音调、押韵、节奏、讽刺、对话，以及像方言、俚语这样的语言变体等语言工具来组织特定的散文、诗歌或剧本，故答案为 irony。 解析： response 考点 本题考查重要细节。 根据听

39、力原文可知，文学写作本质上就是对生活的反映，所以填 response。 解析： subjective 考点 本题设题点在定义概念处。 根据听力原文可知，文学写作是指作者使用其所掌握的词汇，通过主题、观点、思想、回忆来表达主观的个人观点，以引起读者的共鸣，故答案为 subjective。 解析： communication 考点 本题设题点在分论点处。 根据听力原文可知，文学写作是一个交流的过程，它“有助于我们了解生活”，所以填 communication。 解析： essential 考点 本题考查重要细节。 根据听力原文可知，作者个人的写作动机是文学作品的一个本质特征，故答案为 essent

40、ial。 解析： resolving conflicts 考点 本题设题点在具体措施处。 根据听力原文可知，艺术家需要在文学作品中解决自己的内心冲突，获得理解，寻求生命、死亡以及任何事情的本质意义，故答案为 resolving conflicts，注意应使用-ing 形式。 解析： detective novels/science fictions 考点 本题设题点在分论点处。 根据听力原文可知，例如：侦探小说和科幻小说都是对生活创造性、想象性的描述，所以填 detective novels/science fictions。 解析： readers 考点 本题设题点在并列关系处。 根据听力原

41、文可知，文学作品的价值要由每个读者来评定，决定它是否有资格在文学历史长河中占据一席之地，故答案为 readers。 解析： arrest 考点 本题设题点在目的处。 根据听力原文可知，每个艺术家的目的都是通过艺术的手法抓住不断变化的生活，使其固定下来，以便在上百年后，当陌生人来看的时候，它能够再次鲜活起来，因为这样才是生活，故答案为 arrest。 解析： an art form 考点 本题设题点在结语处。 根据听力原文可知，文学作品是自我意识和富有想象力的写作模式，这些语言不仅用来传达信息，而且还是一种艺术形式，故答案为 an art form。 三、SECTION B INTERVIEW(

42、总题数：2，分数：40.00)（分数：20.00）A.How to borrow money from relatives.B.What to notice when lending money to family members. C.How to deal with family members owing your money.D.Whether to lend money to relatives.解析：听力原文 M: What if one day, one member of your family turns to you for lending him or her some

43、money? With the do“s and don“ts of lending money to family, we are joined by Mility Hopson, GMA financial contributor and president of Ariel Capital Management. Welcome. W: Thank you. M: So can we narrow it down? Is there a yes-no answer to the question: should you lend family money? W: I wouldn“t c

44、all it a yes-no answer; I would start with a very basic idea. Before you think about this familiar obligation issue, let“s start with: Can you afford it? And if you can“t afford it, that answers the question right away. Also can you afford it if they don“t pay you back? A bank thinks about the same

45、thing. They assess the risk of the loan they are going to make, and they don“t make loans that are going to make them insolvent. You shouldn“t either, but if you go down this path, the one thing that I suggest you that helps mute some of the resentment or problems that can occur: document it. Docume

46、ntation helps a lot. M: So those are the guidelines basically. You“re saying: write it down on paper, sign it, date it, and interest rates. Someone said, the interest rates are low, so this is a good deal. We do look at family as a good deal, even for paying an interest. That“s usually lower than th

47、e market rate, right? W: Well, I would start with, you want your names, the date, the amount, the purpose which you also have the right to know. A bank would ask you what the loan is for. You may not want to lend a family member money for a vacation versus a medical bill. M: And you should tell them

48、 that you don“t want to pay for their trip to Disney World. W: Absolutely. The terms may or may not include interest. They may include a payment plan. And last but not least, sign it, copy it, make sure you both have a copy and when you get into issues, you pull out that piece of paper. M: And you s

49、hould have the hurt, supposed to be able to say to the person: I don“t think I want to loan you money for this purpose. What“s the main topic of this part of the interview? 本题考查重要细节。根据听力原文可知，此次采访的主题是关于借钱给家人的注意事项，并请来了Mility Hopson，故 B 为正确答案。A 与原文意思不符，因此排除；C 和 D 只是本次采访讨论的问题之一，并非主题，故排除。A.Supportive.B.Oppositive.C.Objective. D.Subjective.解析：听力原文 What“s Mility Hopson“s attitude towards lending money to family members? 本题设题点在观点态度处。根据听力原文可知，Mility 对于亲戚借钱的态度不只是支持或反对。在此段的后面，她根据具体情况给出了自己的建议，因此她对向亲戚借钱的态度是比较客
