英文科幻小說入門
同學我通過了上海高級口譯,我的經驗應該還是有參考價值的。所謂「直面高考的英文科幻小說」是沒有這種東西存在的。經典的科幻小說多會提凡爾納的作品,《海底兩萬里》《八十天環游地球》等。另外我不是很懂你讀的是什麼班,一般很少要求看科幻小說的;因為科幻小說專有名詞太多,這些單詞大都又難記使用頻率也低,對高考沒什麼大用處。而且看英文原版小說對英文綜合能力要求很高,像你的水平硬要去看,只會吃力不討好,進步慢且勞心勞力,高二了也耗不起這個時間。我的建議是:你如果需要增加科技方面的詞彙,找這方面的報刊來看,新聞、科普介紹短文都行。還有,我認為最有效的應付高考英文作文的方法是,找一本高考作文範文、模板方面的書(要盡量新一點的和你們現在的題型類似的,不然就白背了)每種文體、每種題材等的範文都下苦功背個一兩篇,高考怎麼考都不怕。這是我的經驗談,希望能幫上忙。
❷ 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.

❸ 有哪些好看的英文科幻小說可以推薦
威爾斯這部發表於1898年的科幻小說《世界大戰》,被斯皮爾伯格搬上大熒幕。小說對外星人的外貌特徵進行了直接描寫,這也成了後來20世紀美國科幻小說「黃金時代」的一大特徵。

The science fiction is defined as a form of modern literature which is intended to predict future of human world and inspire human imagination and novelty of scientists. The War of the Worlds (1898) is a science fiction novel by H. G. Wells. It describes the experiences of an unnamed narrator who travels through the suburbs of London as the Earth is invaded by Martians.It is the earliest story that details a conflict between mankind and an alien race.Jules-Verne may also be deemed as contributinga lot to this writing style.The great popularity of this writing style arose from The Instrial Revolution , which is characteristic of the exploration of unknown world .
科幻小說是當代文學的一種新形式,旨在預測人類的未來,激發人類想像和科學家的創造精神.1898年的"地球大戰"是威爾斯創作的科幻小說,它描述了一位無名氏在倫敦郊區旅行期間偶遇火星來客的故事.這是最早的描述人類與外星物種爆發沖突的小說.儒勒.凡爾納對科幻小說的盛行也貢獻巨大.科幻小說的盛行源自於工業革命,因為正是這場革命提供了人類探索未知世界的動力.
