In some ways, Ralph Ellison's protagonist in Invisible Man emblematizes
what might be called the "presentist simplicity" of the novel's endorsement of
industrial, imperialist, xenophobic American myth-making. Layer upon layer of
Line allusion mark its chapters, which in combination with the novel's Homeric
(5) ambitiousness, serve finally to obscure rather than to prophesy the actual,
engaged, advanced-guard, public sphere effectiveness of American blacks
already at work modernizing the United States. Simply stated, Ellison believed
morality, equality, and responsibility were affirmative "notions", but blacks, at
the very moment of Invisible Man's glorious reception, were transforming
(10) "notions" into decisively affirmative actions, by courageously putting body and
soul on the line and constructing a sphere of American ethical publicity
undreamed by the novelist. Ellison thus remained silent on the possibilities of an
altogether "unexceptional" America-a post-industrial, radically black public
sphere conditioned America.
The author is primarily concerned with
A.criticizing Ellison on the basis of reactionary assumptions his work makes about politically-involved blacks
B.exposing the limitations of Ellison's novel when compared with the actual work performed by black workers and activists
C.chronicling the effects Ellison's novel had upon the black activist movements of the 1960's
D.comparing Ellison's view of post-industrial black America with that of the activists working at the time
E.critically describing Ellison's approach as novelist to the task of ethical publicity

听力原文: It was a glorious day when Steve Dobson realized the mountain climbing gene planted deep in his soul had been passed on to his daughter, Liza. The father and daughter have become quite a team, and in early August they made their fourth trip to Colorado for what has become an annual tradition for them.
When Steve was a young man and a student at Bluffton College, he had the opportunity to take a mountain climbing class for credit. The class gave him the chance to not only learn about mountains, but also his first trip west to actually be in the mountains. It was love at first sight. "I loved being in the mountains," he said. "Being on top of the mountain was an unbelievable experience."
But life took him in another direction. Fast forward a few years and Steve found himself living in Maysville with a family and the owner of D. H. Resorts in Fleming County. Steve, his wife, and two children frequently headed west to Colorado for family vacations to go snow skiing.
Four years ago they made their first trip to Colorado as a family in the summer. The active family spent part of that vacation hiking on trails, enjoying summer in the mountains. It gave Steve an idea. "I got the idea that we would climb a mountain as a family."
He chose a mountain that was just over 12,000 feet, and since he hadn't tried it since he was in college, he wasn't sure how difficult it would be. "Mountain climbing is not easy," he said. "It's not a hike in the woods. But it's also not as technical as rock climbing."
