Many people seem to think that science fiction is typified by the Bug-eyed Monster, embodying every feature that most people find repulsive. This is unfortunate because it degrades a worthwhile literary endeavor. Instead, the basic interest of science fiction lies in the relation between man and his technology and between man and the universe. Science fiction is a literature of change and a literature of the future, and the aspects of human life that it considers make it well worth reading and studying for no other literary form does quite the same things. What is science fiction? To begin, the following definition should be helpful: science fiction is a literary subgenre which postulates(以……为前提) a change (for human beings) from conditions as we know them and follows the implications of these changes to a conclusion.
The first point that science fiction is a literary sub genre--is a very important one, but one which is often overlooked or ignored in most discussions of science fiction. Specifically, science fiction is either a short story or a novel. There are only a few dramas which could be called science fiction, the body of poetry that might be labeled science fiction is only slightly larger. To say that science fiction is a subgenre of prose fiction is to say that it has all the basic characteristics and serves the same basic functions in much the same way as prose fiction in general, that is, it shares a great deal with all other novels and short stories.
Everything that can be said about prose fiction, in general, applies to science fiction. Every piece of science fiction, whether short story or novel, must have a narrator, a story, a plot, the themes of science fiction are concerned with interpreting man’s nature and experience in relation to the world around him. Themes in science fiction are constructed and presented in exactly the same ways that themes are dealt with in any other kind of fiction. They are the result to a particular combination of a narrator, story, plot, character, setting, and language. In short, the reasons for reading and enjoying science fiction, and the ways of studying and analyzing it, are basically the same as they would be for any other story or novel. [br] According to the definition in the passage, a fictional work that places human beings in a prehistoric world inhabited by dinosaurs ______.
选项
A、cannot be called science fiction because it does not deal with the future
B、cannot be called science fiction because it doesn’t deal with technology
C、can be called science fiction because it deals with man’s relation to the world
D、can be called science fiction because it places people in an environment different from the one we know
答案
D
解析
细节推理题。见第一段最后一句,“science fiction...postulates a change(for human beings)from conditions as we know them and...”科幻小说的是以变化为前提的……由此可推断出,将人类置于全新环境的小说可以成为科幻小说,所以D为正确答案。A不能称为科幻小说,因为它没有涉及到未来,B不能成为科幻小说,因为没有涉及到科技;从文中的定义可知科幻小说不一定要涉及到未来和科技;C可以被成为科幻小说,因为涉及到人类与世界之间的关系;所有的小说都涉及到这个主题,所以不正确。
