Passage 23

(06·湖南E篇)

Susan Sontag (1933----2004)was one of the most noticeable figures in the world of literature.For more than 40 years she made it morally necessary to know everything---to read every book worth reading ,to see every movie worth seeing .When she was still in her early 30s,publishing essays in such important magazines as Partisan Review, she appeared as the symbol of American culture life ,trying hard to follow every new development in literature, film and art .With great effort and serious judgement. Sontag walked at the latest edges of world culture.

Seriousness was one of Sontage’s lifelong watchwords(格言).but at a time when the barriers between the well-educated and the poor-educated were obvious,she argued for a true openness to the pleasure of pop culture.In “Notes Camp”,the 1964 essay that first made her name ,she explainedwhat was then a little-known set of difficult understandings, through which she could not have been more famous .“Notes on Camp”,she wrote,represents“a victory of ‘form’over‘content’,‘beauty’over‘morals’”.

By conviction(信念)she was a sensualist(感覺論者), but by nature she was a moralist (倫理學(xué)者),and in the works she published in the 1970s and 1980s , it was the latter side of her that came forward. In illness as Metaphor -published in 1978, after she suffered cancer-she argued against the idea that cancer was somehow a special problem of repressed personalities(被壓抑的性格), a concept that effectively blamed the victim for the disease. In fact , re-examining old positions was her lifelong lifelong habit.

In America,her story of a 19th century Polish actress who set up a perfect society in California, won the National Book Award in 2000.But it was as a tirelessm all-purposer cultural view that she made her lasting fame.“Sometimes,”she once said ,“I feel that, in the end, all I am really defending …is the idea of seriousness, of true seriousness.”And in the end ,she made us take it seriously too.

　　　 c．he rode his bike in a forest.　　　　　　　　　 d．He planned an adventure to the South Pole.

Passage 22

(06·浙江A篇)

Fat and shy, Ben Saunders was the last kid in his class picked for any sports team. “Football, tennis, cricket- anything with a round ball, I was useless,” he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the one always made fun of in school gym chasses in Devonshire, England.

It was a mountain bike he received for his 15^th birthday that changed him. At first he went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to ride the bike along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders set his mind on building up his body, increasing his speed and strength. At the age of 18, he ran his first marathon.

The following year, he met John Ridgway and was hired as an instructor at Ridgway’ s　 School of Adventure in Scotland, where he learned about Ridgway’ s　 cold-water exploits, Greatly interested, Saunders read all he could about North Pole explorers and adventures, then decided that this would be his future.

In 2001, after becoming a skillful skier, Saunders started his first long-distance expedition(探險(xiǎn))towards the North Pole. It took unbelievable energy. He suffered frostbite(凍瘡),ran into a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit, pulling his supply-loaded sled(雪橇)up and over rocky ice.

Saunders has since become the youngest person to ski alone to the North pole, and he’s skied more of the North Pole by himself than any other British man. His old playmates would not believe the change.

Next October, Saunders, 27, heads south from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole and back, a 2900kilometre journey that has never been completed on skis.
