选择性必修　第四册 UNIT 1　SCIENCE FICTION 题组训练1 Ⅰ.阅读 A (2023·河北石家庄高三模拟) Best Science Fiction The Sprawl Trilogy by William Gibson This classic trilogy (三部曲) from William Gibson consists of Neuromancer, Count Zero and Mona Lisa Overdrive. The book that started the entire concept of Cyberpunk, the Hugo Award-,Nebula Award- and Philip K.Dick Award- winning Neuromancer remains one of the best sci-fi books ever written and the entire trilogy is worth a read, even if it’s the original that gets all the praise. Hyperion Cantos by Dan Simmons This series by Dan Simmons consists of Hyperion, The Fall of Hyperion, Endymion and The Rise of Endymion. Truly one of the great works in science fiction history, the Hugo Award-winning Hyperion Cantos is an absolutely excellent story of extreme terror, character-building and wild-world-building that is almost without equal in the type. Ender’s Game Quartet by Orson Scott Card Ender’s Game is often read in schools, but it has incredibly mature themes like isolation, loneliness, competition and fear—many of which are more relevant now than when Orson Scott Card first began the series in 1985. If you love Ender’s Game, it’s worth reading the whole series to follow the sci-fi adventures of Andrew “Ender” Wiggin:Ender’s Game, Ender in Exile, Xenocide and Children of the Mind. Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson This is the only stand-alone (独立的) book on this list, as the rest are all in a series, so if you don’t feel like investing in 300,000 pages of content, Neal Stephenson’s Snow Crash is for you. This book is the heir (继承人) to Neuromancer’s Cyberpunk throne and an absolutely excellent read from Stephenson. 1.Which book won the most awards? A.Neuromancer. B.Hyperion. C.Ender’s Game.
