Before Gibson, popular discourse surrounding the Information Age often
depicted the current era as one in which advanced technologies liberate the
worker from the burden of material labor, yet despite their claims for a radical
Line break with the past, such representations both draw upon, and reinforce,
(5) traditional Western conceptions of the autonomous laborer as an active, organic
subject distinct from the passive inorganic machine. In contrast, Gibson’s
characters struggle to comprehend how bodies themselves are marked by
historical and material circumstances, and by extending their epistemological
systems to process their technological markings, such characters are able to
(10) forge limited alliances with one another and retain their agency without
disappearing into-or fleeing from-this brave new world. Unfortunately,
Gibson does not wholeheartedly champion these alternative models of labor and
agency over their dominant counterparts-they are maintained at only great
physical and social cost-but the Neuromancer trilogy takes an important step
(15) toward revealing the limits of our traditional conceptions of the laboring body.
Which of the following best describes the author’s attitude toward Gibson’s work?
选项
A、Rejection, on the grounds of Gibson’s unqualified pessimism concerning the uses of machinery
B、Praise for Gibson’s thesis, despite skepticism at the ultimate effects of his work
C、Uncritical approval for all but Gibson’s rejection of traditional Western models of labor
D、Reluctant acceptance of the necessity of Gibson’s work to the canon of post- modern literature
E、Enthusiasm tempered by minor reservations for Gibson’s reluctant support for unorthodox models of action and labor
