『贰』 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.

我的科幻故事
一天,我在公园里散步。突然,一个像盘子一样发着许多光的东西从天而降,低盘的中间发着绿光,像一根柱子。我好半天才反应过来是UFO——“不明飞行物”。我赶紧躲在一块大石头后面。只见那个不明飞行物从中间出来一个梯子,一个张着大大的脑袋,大大的眼睛,细又长的手臂,而且非常矮,只有1米左右的外星人从不明飞行物中走出来。它古怪地说:“躲在石头后面的地球人,你出来吧。我的雷达手已经发现了你,我不会伤害你的。”我一点一点地从石头后面走出来,赶紧跑。那外星人的手马上伸长,把我给抓住了。我被吓得把它的手拉开……最后我战胜了害怕,慢慢地走过去。我给它饮料喝。它把饮料放在地上,接着,一道水飞入它的嘴里。我惊呆了,它说它有吸东西的魔力,吸的是超能水。它还能把房子举起来,在0.001秒内算完一道上亿的乘法算式。
我请它带我进入不明飞行物内,它便带我进入不明飞行物里面。里面有许多机器,有一个把光转化成动力的机器,还有能在一秒钟飞回基地的超动力发电机,能在每秒钟转4亿转。飞船上的天线还能接受火星,木星,金星等发出的信号。
只见飞船发出声音:“动力系统出现问题,是否修复?”外星人回答道:“是。”过了5秒钟,飞船又说:“动力系统已修复。”我不禁惊讶:“你们科技真发达呀,在这没短的时间就能修好动力系统!”它听了,脸上露出得意的神色。这时,它说:“我要走了,我叫卡光,是火星人,再见。”一道百光一闪,飞船便没了。我呆呆地站在那个地方……
起床了……妈妈的声音在我耳边响起,原来是一场梦,我想:“我以后要去火星,去找卡光。”

『柒』 高考英语科幻小说推荐
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。
