This human rights campaigner and anti-war activist has in recent years been an outspoken critic of the war in Iraq.

听力原文： For the last 82 years, Sweden's Nobel Academy has decided who will receive the Nobel Prize in Literature, thereby determining who will be elevated from the great and the near great to the immortal. But today the Academy is coming under heavy criticism both from the without and from within. Critics contend that the selection of the winners often has less to do with true writing ability than with the peculiar internal politics of the Academy and of Sweden itself. According to Ingmar Bjorksten, the cultural editor for one of the country's two major newspapers, the prize continues to represent "what people call a very Swedish exercise: reflecting Swedish tastes."

The Academy has defended itself against such charges of provincialism in its selection by asserting that its physical distance from the great literary capitals of the world actually serves to protect the Academy from outside influences. This may well be lame, but critics respond that this very distance may also be responsible for the Academy's inability to perceive accurately authentic trends in the literary world.

Regardless of concerns over the selection process, however, it seems that the prize will continue to survive both as an indicator of the literature that we most highly praise, and as an elusive goal that writers seek. If for no other reason, the prize will continue to be desirable for the financial rewards that accompany it; not only is the cash prize itself considerable, but it also dramatically increases sales of an author's books.

How long has the Nobel Prize in Literature existed？

A．28 years.

B．80 years.

C．82 years.

D．102 years.

听力原文： Former U. S. president and Nobel Peace Prize winner Jimmy Carter on Sunday condemned preparations for a unilateral U.S. attack on Iraq, saying it would be an unjust war "almost unprecedented in the history of civilized nations." In an article in The New York Times, Carter said profound changes in U.S. foreign policy had reversed "consistent bipartisan (由两党成员组成的，代表两党的；由两党支持的) commitments that for more than two centuries have earned our nation greatness." Carter, who served as president from 1977 to 1981, said that during his term he was "severely provoked by international crises.” “I became thoroughly familiar with the principles of a just war, and it is clear that a substantially unilateral attack on Iraq does not meet these standards," he said in his article.

听力原文： In todays class, well discuss Toni Morrisons novel Beloved. As Im sure you al

l know, Morrison is both a popular and highly respected author and its not easy to be both. Born in 1931, Morrison has written some of the most touching and intelligent works on the African-American experience ever written by anyone. And yet to call her an African-American writer doesnt seem to do her justice. In many ways, shes simply an American writer and certainly one of the best. Beloved is a truly remarkable work. It was recommended for nearly every nature literary class, including the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award, and it in fact won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction in 1988. Morrison herself is distinguished for having won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1993. What makes Beloved unique is the skillful sure way in which Morrison blends intensely personal storytelling and American history, racial themes and gender themes, the experience of blacks with the experience of all people everywhere, the down-to-earth reality of slavery with the sense of mysterious spirituality. We will be paying special attention to these themes as we discuss this work and Im particularly interested in your views on the relative importance of grace and gender in this book. Is it more important that Sethe, the main character, is black, or that she is a woman？ Which contributes more to her being？ What does Morrison tell us about both？ 23. What do we learn about Toni Morrison？ 24. What honor did Toni Morrison receive in 1993？ 25. What does the speaker tell us about Sethe, the main character, in Morrisons novel Beloved？24．

A．The Book Critics Circle Award.

B．The Nobel Prize for literature.

C．The Pulitzer Prize for fiction.

D．The National Book Award.

听力原文： The first book we'll be reading in this class will be One Hundred Years of Solit

ude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Marquez was the winner of 1982 Nobel Peace Prize and this is his most famous novel. The story is set in the 1700s in South America. It's a story of the successes and failures of the Buendia family, and it covers it all--love and death, war and peace, youth and age. The story begins with one man and one woman, Jose Arcadio and Ursula, setting off in the jungles to start a new life in a new town. What follows is a chronicle of their lives. You can find copies of the book at most bookstores downtown, and I think the school bookstore has some used copies, too. We'11 be reading the English translation, but I encourage you to read the Spanish edition, too. The novel has been translated into 15 different languages, though the most common editions are in either Spanish or English.

In what department would this class most likely be offered？

A．Economics of South America.

B．Latin American History.

C．United States history.

D．Political Science.
