英文科幻小说入门
同学我通过了上海高级口译,我的经验应该还是有参考价值的。所谓“直面高考的英文科幻小说”是没有这种东西存在的。经典的科幻小说多会提凡尔纳的作品,《海底两万里》《八十天环游地球》等。另外我不是很懂你读的是什么班,一般很少要求看科幻小说的;因为科幻小说专有名词太多,这些单词大都又难记使用频率也低,对高考没什么大用处。而且看英文原版小说对英文综合能力要求很高,像你的水平硬要去看,只会吃力不讨好,进步慢且劳心劳力,高二了也耗不起这个时间。我的建议是:你如果需要增加科技方面的词汇,找这方面的报刊来看,新闻、科普介绍短文都行。还有,我认为最有效的应付高考英文作文的方法是,找一本高考作文范文、模板方面的书(要尽量新一点的和你们现在的题型类似的,不然就白背了)每种文体、每种题材等的范文都下苦功背个一两篇,高考怎么考都不怕。这是我的经验谈,希望能帮上忙。
❷ 求一篇1500词左右的英文科幻小说
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 态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, 态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.

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 .
科幻小说是当代文学的一种新形式,旨在预测人类的未来,激发人类想象和科学家的创造精神.1898年的"地球大战"是威尔斯创作的科幻小说,它描述了一位无名氏在伦敦郊区旅行期间偶遇火星来客的故事.这是最早的描述人类与外星物种爆发冲突的小说.儒勒.凡尔纳对科幻小说的盛行也贡献巨大.科幻小说的盛行源自于工业革命,因为正是这场革命提供了人类探索未知世界的动力.
