13、fort and serious judgment, Sontag walked at the latest edges of world culture.Seriousness was one of Sontags lifelong mottos, but at a time when the barriers between the well-educated and the poorly-educated were obvious, she argued for a true openness to the pleasure of pop culture.In Notes Camp, t

14、he 1964 essay that first made her name, she explained what was then a little-known set of difficult understandings, through which she could not have been more famous.Notes on Camp, she wrote, represents “a victory of form over content, beauty over morals”.By conviction(信念) she was a sensualist(感觉论者)

15、, but by nature she was a moralist, and in the works she published in the 1970s and 1980s, it was the latter side of her that came forward.In Illness as Metaphorpublished in 1978, after she suffered cancershe argued against the idea that cancer was somehow a special problem of repressed (被压抑的) perso

23、umor(肿瘤)，which was located in the part of the brain known to be active when people listen to and make music“Removing a tumor from the brain can have significant consequences depending on its location，”Pilcher says“Both the tumor and the operation can damage tissue and affect communication between di

24、fferent parts of the brain”Fabbio，therefore，feared the surgery would cause him to lose his musical abilityTo prevent that from happening，Pilcher and his colleague designed many tests，including asking Fabbio to listen to piano tunes and hum back during MRI scansThis enabled the physicians to locate t

They survive by means of their collective intelligence. Their decision-making power is distributed throughout the group; that is,

31、no one ant or bee makes decisions for the group. Instead, they work together. As Deborah M. Gordon, a biologist at Stanford University, says, Ants arent smart. Ant colonies are.The same is true for bee colonies. Although bees and ants are quite different physically, they have a lot in common in term

32、s of their social behavior. Specifically, honeybees and ants have similar roles within the colony, both have communication systems, and both have the capacity for learning.Ants communicate by using chemicals called pheromones, which can alert others to danger or to a food source. For example, when w

33、orker ants find a promising source, they let the rest of the colony know how to find it by leaving a trail of pheromones on the way back to the colony. The other ants pick up the message using their sense of smell. Bees, on the other hand, use movement to communicate with each other. Worker bees sen

34、d messages to each other by means of a dance. Different speeds and movements send different messages. For example, when worker bees called scouts go out to find a new home for the colony, they return and do a dance for the other worker bees that indicates the location of the new home and how suitabl

35、e it is. The faster the scouts dance, the better the new location is.Honeybees and ants are both capable of learning. One Chinese study found that bees can be trained to learn and remember a route to a food source. The researchers also found that bees can be taught to recognize hidden objects and us

36、e the concepts of sameness and difference to accomplish certain tasks. Ants take this one step further. Recent American research has shown that ants not only have the ability to learn, but also can teach their foraging skills to other younger ants.They observed that older ants accompany young ants i

37、n search of food and teach them the route and how to avoid obstacles.As we can see, the social behavior of honeybees and ants is quite similar. Both coordinate complex actions and accomplish crucial survival tasks by cooperating in groups consisting of many individuals. Unintelligent as they may be

38、as individuals, as groups they often show amazing brilliance as they go about their everyday activities.1、What do ants and bees have in common?AThey live in similar-sized colonies.BThey make use of collective intelligence.CThey have small leadership groups that make all decisions.DThey use the same

39、methods to communicate with each other.2、What does the speed of a bees dance indicate?AThe quality of a new colony location.BThe distance to a neighboring colony.CThe discovery of a new food source.DThe direction to a potential food source.3、In paragraph 3, how does the author demonstrate the idea t

Technically, its not even really about a diner the setting is New York Citys Toms Restaurant, which Vega frequented when she was studying at Bamard. Vega

45、 used the word “diner” instead because it “sings better that way,” she told The New York Times. November 18 has since been called Toms Diner Day, because on that day in 1981, the New York Posts front page was a story about the death of actor William Holden.
