章節(jié)摘錄

　　Directions: Read the following passage, and then answer the questions. For questions 1-6, mark Y (YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage, mark N (NO) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage, and mark NG (NOT GIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage.　　US COMIC book heroes often have superpowers. But one might be surprised to learn that the artists who draw them have special abilities too: They can rewrite comic book history whenever they please.　　After 21 years of marriage, comic book character Peter Parker (known as Spiderman) is single again. Last month, the writers of the Marvel Comics Spiderman series wrote his marriage to redhead Mary Jane Watson out of the story. In Amazing Spiderman #545, Peter and Mary Jane agreed to trade all memory of their marriage to save the life of another character from a bad guy.　　The dramatic twist in the decades-long story offended many fans. But US comic book experts argue that sometimes such changes are justified. Over the years, plots and character histories in long-running US series have been refreshed to make characters more culturally relevant and to fix logical problems in the narrative.　　"We knew it would be a very controversial thing to do," Joe Quesada,Marvers editor-in-chief, told USA Today. "Ultimately, we have to do this to keep this character fresh for this generation and generations to come." US comic book artists have long faced the challenge of keeping their art form relevant. For instance, during the 1930s and 1940s, superheroes looked like humans in colorful pajamas (寬松服裝) . Now, superheroes take on more shocking proportions.　　US comics have also begun distancing themselves from American foreign policy in recent years. Captain America, for instance, aided the Allies in their fight against Germanys Adolf Hitler in World War 11.Since 9111, however, the superhero seems less willing to take sides.
