A. 求一篇1500詞左右的英文科幻小說
Though this is a relatively short collection of stories, the strength of the tales inside it is such that they will leave the reader with flashbacks and images for days afterwards. They did me. In fact, days after reading I still remember vividly parts of its contents.
The fourteen stories included vary in scope, size and length. The book starts strongly with 態est New Horror?/I>, which deals with the premise of Eddie Carroll, a jaded horror story editor who is sent a story so memorable that it jolts him out of his malaise. The problem is that the story, 態uttonboy?/I>, is so horrific that many are sickened by it. Nevertheless, the editor sets off to find the mysterious writer, Peter Kilrue, and the story ends with something not expected. This was a very strong tale ?filmic, for reasons that are best left until you抳e read the story, and references that a fan will get.
Reminiscent in tone of Bradbury and Serling, and another famous author more contemporary, this is a collection marinated in genre and societal references; the societal references help create that feeling of normality in stories that are anything but; the genre references, which though not necessarily important to get to enjoy the stories, add another dimension to their narrative.
Fritz Leiber once pointed out that the scary things are not always gothic castles and ghostly spectres, but the unusual things that are part of our normal everyday world. This is something that Joe has clearly understood here. Part Horror, part 1950抯 SF B-movie, part surreal fantasy, the collection covers a broad range with skill, humour and, hell, an empathy for the genre抯 long history.
There are common themes throughout the book. Most of the stories are interwoven around familial relationships?the bonds between mothers/fathers and their daughters/sons - and peer friendships, between the main character and their friends.
With such a variety of interests, not all of the stories worked for me as well as others. Least successful, though still pretty good, was You Will Hear the Locust Sing, a story with a Bradbury-esque title that clearly highlights a respect for the 1950抯 B-Movies of mutant insects. Though initially amusing, by the end it was a little disappointing. Similarly, The Black Phone was a little creepy, though a weaker effort in such a strong collection. With a Weird Tales type ending that Richard Matheson would be proud of, though strong in feel, this one seemed a little too obvious to me.
My 'weirdness award' goes to My Father抯 Mask, which I抦 not sure I still understand, though it is very unsettling to read. Rather Wicker Man to me.
Having said this, most of the stories are very strong. Most successful to me were Voluntary Committal, (the final novella in the book which sympathetically deals with Nolan Lerner抯 brother, Norris, a boy with Aspberger抯 Syndrome, who has a connection with The Twilight Zone), and in a Tales from the Crypt-type tale, Last Breath, which deals with a visit to a very unusual museum. I also really enjoyed The Cape, a story about Eric抯 particular piece of clothing with a special power (or is it just self-belief?)
There are many stories like that in this book. It is a book that reads with deceptive ease, yet is supremely adept at creating ghosts. To illustrate this, Dead-Wood is a story that, in a page-and-a-half, creates an intriguing 憌hat-if?that is simultaneously beautiful, creepy, and haunting.
All good; but perhaps the biggest surprise to me was the story Pop Art, which deals with the story抯 nameless central character and his relationship with his inflatable schoolfriend, Arthur Roth. (Pop Art, get it?) On first reading, the story reads as allegorical whimsy. It takes a writer of skill, which Hill clearly is, to turn that around so that the end of the story is a powerfully moving one. Forget the practical impossibility here ?Joe makes the reader forget the impracticality to create this story with an ending that is almost painful to read.
To summarise, in this book Hill manages to combine hometown dreams and ambitions with the reality of failure, pathos, horror, humour and B-movie kitsch; all of which is achieved with surprising aplomb and an ease and skill that belies this being just labelled as 'an author抯 first book'.
Let's go further than that. Many other long-published authors would kill to be as good as just one of these stories ?it抯 that good. And one of the best story collections I抳e read in years.
Haunting, resonant, melancholic ?a collection that richly deserves its awards.

C. 科幻故事50字以下
美國近代著名科幻小說家弗里蒂克·布朗曾寫過一篇就目前來說,堪為世界上最短的科幻小說。把它譯成現代漢語恰好是25個字,僅僅只有一句話:
地球上最後一個人獨自坐在房間里,這時,忽然響起了敲門聲……
盡管只有一句話,但它同樣具備了小說的特點。就小說的三要素而言,有人物(一個人)、有情節(一個人獨坐,聽到敲門聲)、有環境(僅有一人的地球上的某房間里)。科幻,重在科學幻想,其最為顯著的特徵就是:擅長誇張、製造懸念,給讀者設置自由而廣闊的聯想、想像等思維空間。這25個字促使讀者追究、探求的問題太多了——
地球上怎麼會只剩下一個人?其他人都到哪裡去了?是去往別的星球還是都死了?如果死了是因為什麼而死的?既然地球上僅剩一個人,那麼敲門的又是誰呢?是人類,是外星人,還是其它高智能的動物?這最後一個人是否去開門?開門後將看到什麼?如果是外星人,他們能夠通過語言來溝通彼此的情感嗎?……最後故事又將會怎樣發展?……總之,將會使每個讀者都產生多維而豐富的聯想和想像,有一百個讀者,就會有一百個關於「地球上最後一個人」的故事

This afternoon we had a P.E. lesson. Our teacher taught us to practise the long jump. When the bell rang, we gathered on the playground. After warming-up exercises, the teacher told us about the long jump and showed us how to do it. We followed the teacher and practised one after another. Soon came my turn and I felt a little nervous. I failed the first time but I didn』t stop practising. At last I managed to jump over three meters.
From this lesson I came to see that one will succeed if he has the perseverance.

F. 請問有大神可以寫一篇關於對科幻小說看法的英語作文
雖然"硬科幻"、"軟科幻"的分法常見諸於許多雜志、網站和愛好者之口,但贊成者內部對"軟硬"的定義也存在爭議;同樣,有許多人拒絕承認這種說法,認為沒有必要去細分科幻小說。
一個典型的混亂案例是《星球大戰》(Star Wars)。起初許多保守的愛好者因為其中"原力"(Force,某種超自然的精神力量)的設定而認為它不屬於科幻,而只能算奇幻小說,或好萊塢太空電影,反正不是科幻;另一些硬科幻小說擁護者認為好萊塢太空電影都是奇幻;而公眾一般直截了當地把它們統統歸為"科幻電影"。
一般認為這類作品嚴格上是應當歸入太空歌劇的范圍,其特點是對於非科幻迷來說,因為其模仿歷史和現實的人物言行,反而有真實的感覺,所以對於公眾來說更為嚴肅。所以阿西莫夫和田中芳樹等著名科幻作家,都因為反過來利用人不知未來卻知道過去,而故意把未來和歷史類比,吸引讀者對未來和太空的嚮往。
特攝或動畫等影像媒體的盛行,使一些人相反地以荷里活太空電影或日本超現實軍事動畫為基準,倒轉來認定,模仿威爾斯強調探索和反思的作品不是科幻。例如認為涼宮春日系列不是科幻,而是借用了科幻詞語的校園戀愛幻想故事,可見科幻的定義是隨時代和地方而變化的。
