Bob Dylan, a folk and rock musician from Minnesota, won the Nobel Prize in literature in 2016. How does it feel?
If you’re a baby boomer who came of age on Dylan’s words and music, you’ve waited for this moment. 【F1】
It is validation of his talent, yes, but also of your taste and the cultural and political revolution you embraced: Bob Dylan the rock star wins the Nobel in literature, and in this way the soundtrack of your generation gets acknowledged for its enduring value.
That means an honorary Nobel Peace Prize for John Lennon, and how about a Nobel in, urn, chemistry, for the Grateful Dead?
OK, enough about the boomers. This prize isn’t about your generation, which, sorry to say, soon will be knock, knock, knockin’ on heaven’s door. This prize is more valuable for everyone who didn’t see Dylan at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965 or wasn’t old enough to buy "Blood on the Tracks" when it was released in 1975. 【F2】
Think of the Nobel announcement as less an affirmation than an introduction to a dazzling artist whose talent as a lyricist is urgent and timeless.
The Nobel committee has a tricky task searching the planet for great literature and parceling out recognition fairly. 【F3】
Given the world’s language and cultural differences, most writers chosen are going to be unfamiliar and possibly unappreciated to readers in many other countries.
Each Nobel is an invitation to explore the works of an artist, often not widely known. Safe to say most Americans hadn’t heard of Svetlana Alexievich of Belarus, winner of 2015.
The most intriguing prospective audience for Dylan is young people, who know him more as handmade art-work than artist. 【F4】
Bringing him to their attention is an interesting exercise because all of the issues he has taken on throughout his career—war, love, loss, hypocrisy, civil rights—are still unresolved.
Who else among today’s songwriters is capable of bringing clarity and grace to the era of the political circus, terrorism and inequality? Dylan stands with the best ever.
For a young generation familiar with rap and pop, an old-fashioned folk rocker such as Dylan is a stretch to appreciate. 【F5】
But his selection by the Nobel committee is a signal that all forms of writing, from novels to songs, have lasting artistic merit.
The aging boomers understand why Dylan deserves his honor. If you don’t know his music, give it a listen.
【F5】
选项
答案
但是,他的作品能被诺贝尔奖组委会选中说明一件事情:无论是小说还是歌曲,所有文体形式都有其经久不衰的艺术价值。
解析
①此句为主从复合句,包含一个同位语从句。②主句his selection by the Nobel committee is a signal是主系表结构。by介词短语在句中作方式状语,说明诺贝尔组委会把奖项颁给鲍勃-迪伦。③主句表语signal后带有that引导的同位语从句,解释说明主句的内容表明了什么。两个逗号间的介词短语from novels to songs可视为插入语,表明诺贝尔文学奖备选作品文体形式包括小说到歌曲。
