　　I want to criticize the social system, and to show it at work, atits most intense. Virginia Woolfs provocative statement about her intentions in writing Mrs.Dalloway has regularly been ignored by the critics, since it highlights anaspect of her literary interests very different from the traditional picture ofthe poetic novelist concerned with examining states of reverie and vision andwith following the intricate pathways of individual consciousness. But VirginiaWoolf was a realistic as well as a poetic novelist, a satirist and socialcritic as well as a visionary: literary critics cavalier dismissalof Woolfs social vision will not withstand scrutiny.

　　In her novels, Woolf is deeply engaged by the questions of howindividuals are shaped by their social environments, howhistorical forces impinge on peoples lives, how class,wealth, and gender help to determine peoples fates. Most of hernovels are rooted in a realistically rendered social setting and in a precisehistorical time.

　　Woolfs focus on society has not been generally recognized because of herintense antipathy to propaganda in art. The pictures of reformers in her novelsare usually satiric or sharply critical. Even when Woolf is fundamentallysympathetic to their causes, she portrays people anxious to reform theirsociety and possessed of a message or program as arrogant or dishonest, unawareof how their political ideas serve their own psychological needs. Woolfdetested what she called preaching in fiction, too, and criticized novelist D. H. Lawrence for working by this method.

　　Woolfs own social criticism is expressed in the language of observationrather than in direct commentary, since for her, fiction is a contemplative,not an active art. She describes phenomena and provides materials for ajudgment about society and social issues; it is the readers work toput the observations together and understand the coherent point of view behindthem. As a moralist, Woolf works by indirection, subtly undermining officiallyaccepted mores, mocking, suggesting, calling into question, rather thanasserting, advocating, bearing witness: hers is the satirists art.

　　Woolfs literary models were acute social observers like Chekhov andChaucer. As she put it in The Common Reader, It is safe to saythat not a single law has been framed or one stone set upon another because ofanything Chaucer said or wrote; and yet, as we read him, we are absorbingmorality at every pore. Like Chaucer, Woolf chose to understand as well as to judge, toknow her society root and branch a decision crucial in order to produce art rather thanpolemic.

　　1. Which of the following would be the most appropriate title forthe text?

　　[A] Poetry and Satire as Influences on the Novels of Virginia Woolf.

　　[B] Virginia Woolf: Critic and Commentator on the Twentieth-CenturyNovel.

　　[C] Trends in Contemporary Reform Movements as a Key toUnderstanding Virginia Woolfs Novels.

　　[D] Virginia Woolfs Novels: Critical Reflections on the Individual and on Society.

　　2. In the first paragraph of the text, the authors attitudetoward the literary critics mentioned can best be described as

　　[A] disparaging.

　　[B] ironic.

　　[C] facetious.

　　[D] skeptical but resigned.

　　3. It can be inferred from the text that Woolf chose Chaucer as aliterary example because she believed that

　　[A] Chaucer was the first English author to focus on society as awhole as well as on individual characters.

　　[B] Chaucer was an honest and forthright author, whereas novelistslike D. H. Lawrence did not sincerely wish to change society.

　　[C] Chaucer was more concerned with understanding his society thanwith calling its accepted mores into question.

　　[D] Chaucers writing was greatly, if subtly, effective in influencing the moralattitudes of his readers.

　　4. It can be inferred from the text that the most probable reasonWoolf realistically described the social setting in the majority of her novelswas that she

　　[A] was aware that contemporary literary critics considered thenovel to be the most realistic of literary genres.

　　[B] was interested in the effect of a persons socialmilieu on his or her character and actions.

　　[C] needed to be as attentive to detail as possible in her novels inorder to support the arguments she advanced in them.

　　[D] wanted to show that a painstaking fidelity in the representationof reality did not in any way hamper the artist.

　　5. Which of the following phrases best expresses the sense of theword contemplative as it is used in line 2, paragraph 4 of the text?

　　[A] Gradually elucidating the rational structures underlyingaccepted mores.

　　[B] Reflecting on issues in society without prejudice or emotionalcommitment.

　　[C] Avoiding the aggressive assertion of the authorsperspective to the exclusion of the readers judgment.

　　[D] Conveying a broad view of society as a whole rather thanfocusing on an isolated individual consciousness.

　　[参考译文]

　　我要批判社会体制，揭示出它在最为紧要的关头是如何运作的。弗吉尼亚伍尔芙在谈及她写作《达勒维夫人》的意图时令人深思的言论，常常为批评家们所忽视，因为它着重突出了她文学兴趣的一个方面，而这一方面与这位诗意小说家的一贯形象大相径庭，她一贯所关注的是审视人们梦想与幻觉的种种状态，并沿着个人意识的复杂路径追寻。但弗吉尼亚伍尔芙是一位诗意小说家也是一个现实主义者，是一个空想家也是一个讽刺作家和社会批评家，对于伍尔芙的社会空想，文学批评家们傲慢地忽视伍尔芙的社会批判的做法是经不起推敲的。

　　伍尔芙在其小说中全力探讨如下问题：社会环境是如何塑造个人的，历史发展的推动力是如何冲击人们生活的，阶级、财产和性别是如何在决定人生命运中发挥作用的。她的大部分小说植根于现实主义营造的社会背景中，并发生在某一精确的历史时期。

　　因为伍尔芙对艺术宣传十分厌恶，所以她对社会的关注并未得到普遍认可。在她的小说中，改革者的形象通常是具有讽刺性的或是带有尖锐的批判色彩。即使有时伍尔芙本质上对他们的事业怀有同情心，但她还是将急于改革社会的，怀揣救世咨文或是纲领的人塑造成傲慢自大而又不够诚实的形象，并还没有意识到其政治主张是如何为满足个人的心理私欲而服务的。伍尔芙还痛恨在小说中应用所谓的说教，对应用这一理论进行创作的小说家D. H.劳伦斯进行了批评。

　　伍尔芙将自己的社会批判以观察的语言而不是直接的评论来表现，因为对她而言，小说是一门沉思凝想的艺术而非一门积极干预生活的艺术。她对社会及社会性问题所表现出来的现象加以描述，并提供材料让人们作出评论。读者要做的才是将这些观察所得的资料综合起来，并体会出隐含其中的连贯的观点。作为一名道德家，伍尔芙间接而巧妙地对那些公认的伦理道德进行攻击，她嘲讽、暗示、质疑，而不是下论断，鼓吹自己的观点，或是充当见证：她的作品是讽刺作家的艺术。

　　伍尔芙的文学楷模是像契诃夫和乔叟那样敏锐的社会观察家。正如她在《普通读者》中表述的，完全可以说，还没有因为乔叟说了什么或写了什么而制定出一项法律或是建起一块石碑;但当我们在阅读他的作品时，却会全身心地汲取其道德思想。正如乔叟一样，伍尔芙选择去理解判断，去彻底了解她所置身的社会去创造艺术而不是争论性文章，这才是至关重要的决定。
