1.10pointsTheories of the value of artare oftwo kinds,which wemay callextrinsic andintrinsic.The firstregardsart and the appreciationof art as means to somerecognized moralgood,while thesecondregards themas valuablenot instrumentallybut asobjects unto themselves.It ischaracteristicof extrinsictheories tolocate the value of art inits effectson theperson whoappreciatesit.41The extrinsicapproach,adopted inmodern timesby LeoTolstoy inChto takoyeiskusstvo1896;What IsArt,has seldomseemed wholly satisfactory.Philosophers haveconstantlysought for a valuein aestheticexperience thatis uniqueto itand that,therefore,could not beobtained from any othersource.The extremeversion ofthis intrinsicapproach isthatassociated withWalter Pater,Oscar Wilde,and theFrench Symbolists,and summarizedin the1slogan artfor arts sake.
42.Between thosetwo extremeviews therelies,once again,a hostof intermediatepositions.Webelieve,for example,that works of artmust be appreciated for their own sake,but that,in theactof appreciation,we gainfrom themsomething thatis ofindependent value.43一The analogywith laughter—which,in someviews,is itselfa species of aestheticinterestintroduces aconcept withoutwhich therecan beno seriousdiscussion of thevalueof art:theconcept oftaste.44Similarly,we regardsome worksof artas worthyof our attention andothers asnot.Inarticulating thisjudgment,we useall of the diverseand confusingvocabulary ofmoral appraisal;worksof art,like people,are condemnedfor theirsentimentality,coarseness,vulgarity,cruelty,or self-indulgence,and equallypraised for their warmth,compassion,nobility,sensitivity,andtruthfulness.The samemay applyto theobject of natural beauty.Clearly,if aestheticinteresthas apositive value,it isonly whenmotivated bygood taste;it isonly interest in appropriateobjectsthat can be saidto begood for us.
45..[A]Thus ajoke islaughed atfor its ownsake,even thoughthere isan independentvalue inlaughter,which lightensour livesby takingus momentarilyoutside ourselves.Why shouldnotsomething similarbe saidof worksof art,many ofwhich aspireto beamusing injust thewaythat goodjokes are.[B]All discussionof thevalueof art tends,therefore,to turnfrom theoutset in the direction ofcriticism:Can therebe genuinecritical evaluationofart,a genuinedistinction betweenthatwhich deservesour attentionand thatwhich doesnot And,once again,the questionmay beextendedto objectsofnaturalbeauty..[C]Art isheld tobea form ofeducation,perhaps aneducation of the emotions.In thiscase,itbecomes anopen questionwhether theremight notbe somemore effectivemeansto the sameresult.Alternatively,one mayattribute anegative valueto art,as Platodid inhis Republic,arguing thatart hasa corruptingor diseducativeeffect onthose exposedto it..[D]Artistic appreciation,a purelypersonal matter,calls forappropriate means of expression.Yet,it isbefore anythinga processof cultivation,during whicha certainpart ofone s innerself isdug outand someknowledeg ofthe outsideworld becomesits match..[E]If I am amusedit isforareason,and this reason lies in theobject ofmy amusement.Wethus beginto thinkin termsofadistinction betweengood andbad reasonsfor laughter.Amusement at the wrongthings may seem tous toshow corruptionof mind,cruelty,or badtaste;and whenit doesso,we speakoftheobject asnot trulyamusing,and feelthat wehavereason onour side..[F]Such thinkersand writers believe thatart is not only an endin itselfbut alsoa sufficientjustificationof itself.They alsohold that in orderto understandartasit shouldbe understood,itis necessary to putaside allinterests otherthan aninterestin the work itself.分]4L[2A:答案C:分]

1918.Even afterhe hadcompletely abjuredviolence hewas honest enoughto see that inwar it is usually necessarytotake sides.Since hiswhole politicallife centredrounda strugglefor nationalindependence,he couldnot and,49indeed,he didnot takethe sterileanddishonest lineof pretendingthatinevery warboth sidesare exactly the sameand itmakesno differencewho wins.Nor didhe,like mostWestern pacifists,specialize in avoiding awkwardquestions.In relationto thelate war,one questionthat everypacifist hada clearobligation touanswerwas:What aboutthe JewsAre youpreparedto see themexterminated Ifnot,how doyoupropose tosave themwithout resortingto war501must saythat Ihave neverheard,fromanyWesternpacifist,an honestanswer tothis question,though Ihave heardplenty ofevasions,usually ofthe youre anothertype.But itso happensthat Gandhiwas askedasomewhat similarquestion in1938and thathis answerisonrecord inMr.Louis Fischer*sGandhi andStalin.According toMr.Fischer,Gandhi sview wasthat the German Jewsought tocommitcollective suicide,which wouldhave arousedthe worldandthepeople ofGermany tonHitler*s violence.分]

1.40pointsText1The authorof someforty novels,a numberof plays,volumes ofverse,historical,critical andautobiographicalworks,an editorand translator,Jack Lindsayis clearlyan extraordinarilyprolificwriter—a factwhich caneasily obscurehis veryreal distinctionin someoftheareas intowhichhe hasventured.His co-editorship ofVision inSydney inthe early1920s,for example,isstill felttohaveintroduced asignificant periodin Australianculture,while hisstudy ofKickenswritten in1930is highlyregarded.But of all hisworkitis probablythe novelto whichhe hasmadehis mostsignificant contribution.Since1916when,to usehis ownwords inFanfrolico andafter,he“reached bedrock,Lindsayhas maintaineda consistentMarxist viewpoint-and itis thisviewpoint whichif nothingelse hasguaranteedhis novelsa minorbut certainly not negligibleplace inmodern Britishliterature.Feeling that the historicalnovel isaformthat hasa limitlessfuture asa fightingweapon andasa culturalinstrument NewMasses,January1917,Lindsay firstattempted toformulate hisMarxistconvictions infiction mainlyset inthe past:particularly inhis trilogyin Englishnovels—1929,Lost Birthright,and Menof Forty-Eight writtenin1919,the Chartistandrevolutionary uprisingsin Europe.Basically theseworks setout,with mostsuccess inthe firstvolume,to vivifythe historicaltraditions behindEnglish Socialismand attemptedtodemonstrate thatit stood,in Lindsay s words,forthetrue completionofthenational destiny.”Although thewar yearssaw thevirtual disintegrationoftheleft-wing writingmovement ofthe1910s,Lindsay himselfcarried on:delving intocontemporary affairsin WeShall Returnand5Beyond Terror,novels inwhich theepithets formerlyreserved forthe evilcapitalists orFrancos soldiershave beentransferred rathercrudely totheGermantroops.After thewar Lindsaycontinuedto writemainlyaboutthe present——trying withvarying degreesof successto cometoterms withthe unradicalpolitical realitiesof post-war England.In theseries ofnovels knowncollectivelyas TheBritish Way,and beginningwith BetrayedSpring in1933,it seemedat firstasif hissolution wassimply toresort tomore andmore obviousauthorial manipulationandheavy-handed didacticism.Fortunately,however,from RevoltoftheSons,this processwasreversed,as Lindsay began toshow anincreasing tendencyto ignoreparty solutions,to failindeedto giveanything butthemost elementary politicalconsciousness tohis characters,sothat inhis latestand whatappears tobe hislast contemporarynovel,Choice ofTimes,his1hero,Colin,ends ona noteof desperation:Everything mustbe different,I cant livethis way5any longer.But howcan Ichange it,how Tohis creditas anartist,Lindsay doesnt givehimany explicitanswer.分]
