fantasy writers. he is also a productive writer of outstanding short fiction, which is collected in many volumes over the last forty years, most recently in the best of gene wolfe. although wolfe is not as well-known to readers as he once was, he has been the receiver of great praise, including three world fantasy awards, two nebulas, and eight hugo award nominations (提名). sci-fi author harlan ellison has called him, “no less than one of the finest, most original writers in the world today”, and the encyclopedia of science fiction names him “quite possibly the most important” writer in the field of science fiction.born in 1931, new york, gene wolfe moved frequently as a child, but spent most of his growing-up years in texas. wolfe began writing fiction in 1956, selling his first story, the dead man, to sir magazine in 1965. he produced a vast amount of short fiction during the 1960s and 1970s, many of which were published in damon knight s orbit anthologies（选集）. in 1972 wolfe s groundbreaking（开创性的） the fifth head of cerberus appeared. the story of human conquest (征服) upon two distant planets, the book examines issues of identity, individuality, and the results of colonialism (殖民主义) upon both the colonized and the colonizer. the novel was later listed in david pringle s 1985 list of the 100 best novels in science fiction for the period 19491984.many of his novels, the shadow of the torturer included, rely on a diary or letter to tell his story. in addition, wolfe s early interest in mystery novels shines through in his ability to drop cleverly hidden clues that allow the reader to grasp at the possible narrative behind the narrative（故事）.by 1984 wolfe was able to retire and devote himself full-time to his writing. yet despite (尽管) all this, and despite the continuing respect of his colleagues, his work has become somewhat unfamiliar. wolfe s admirers hope this fact will be at least somewhat improved by his most recent offering, the wizard knight, which falls within the fantasy type that is currently popular.8. what is harlan ellison s attitude toward gene wolfe?a. concerned. b. sympathetic. c. admiring. d. regretful.9. what do we know about the fifth head of cerberus?a. it was well received. b. it was gene wolfe s first novel.c. it was published in sir magazine. d. it was co-authored by david pringle.10. which has great influence on gene wolfe s writing style?a. his understanding of life. b. his childhood experiences.c. his colleagues suggestions. d. his love for mystery fiction.11. what can we infer about gene wolfe from the last paragraph?a. his work has become less popular.b. he became famous for the wizard knight.c. his fans were disappointed to some degree.d. he stopped fantasy writing after his retirement.dif someone asked you to quantify (衡量) the time you spend online, how would you answer? if youre like one-fifth of americans, youd likely say “almost constantly.” new research shows that 21 percent of americans report that theyre online more or less constantly.andrew perrin, a research assistant at pew, did a survey about internet use. during the survey, adults were asked how much they go online. 13 percent said they dont go online and 13 percent said they go online several times a week or less. only 10 percent said they go online once a day and much larger quantities said they go online several times a day (42 percent) or “almost constantly” (21 percent).interestingly, there wasnt a gender split (性别分化) when it came to near constant internet use. age seems to be the great divider: only six percent of people over 65 said they were online that much. those who reported that they were online all the time included 12 percent of 50- to 64-year-olds, 28 percent of 30- to 49-year-olds and 36 percent of 18- to 29-year-olds.dont suppose that teenagers are online more than adults, however. in another survey, pew found that while they did have a slight edge on adults in general when it came to “almost constant” internet use, 24 percent said they were online pretty much all the time. they still fell greatly behind the 36 percent of adults between 18 and 29 years of age who were always online.given that the united nations considers unrestricted (无限制的) internet access (接入) to be a human right, the number of americans who report being online “almost constantly” could rise along with availability and affordability. but it remains to be seen whether being online all the time is actually something to long for, or how constant connectivity（连接度） will affect american culture in the long term.12. what is paragraph 2 mainly about?a. the aim of the survey. b. the results of the survey.c. why the survey mattered. d. how the survey was carried out.13. according to the text, most “almost constant” internet users are _.a. teenagers b. men over 50 years oldc. adults between 18 and 29 years old d. women between 30 and 49 years old14. the underlined part “have a slight edge on” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _.a. have power over b. have an advantage overc. have a very bad effect on d. have nothing in common with15. the author showed his concern about _. a. the affordability of internet useb. the availability of unrestricted internet accessc. the effect constant internet use may have on cultured. the health problems constant internet use may cause第二节 阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10分）for
