※ 引述《philJamy (Jamy)》之铭言： : It is the artist, not the critic, who gives society something of lasting : value. * critics: a person who evaluates works of art, such as novels, : films, music, paintings,etc. : 写的时候只有一个心得，就是自己的字汇真的很少 : 光是要写"有很高的价值"写来写去都是同样几个字... : 换句话说要怎麽练习啊 T_T Please allow me to give some suggestions. : I disagree with the statement that it is the artist instead of the critic : that gives society something of lasting value. An artist is the one to make : some ideas come true, and thus the value of the ideas can be seen. However, : for a value to be long-lasting, a critic is also needed to examine the art : works and decide which ones deserve the highest value. "... to examine the art works and to decide which ones deserve the highest value. " I guess, adding a "to" in front of the word "diecide" is better? : There are some cases where artists and critics are equally important. For : example, in the field of painting, we need creative artists to create great : works, while the critics evaluate the works. By doing so, the artists know : what to improve in their following works, and the public have different : viewpoints to appreciate these painting. In music, we do need both excellent : artists and critics. Take myself for instance. Before I buy a CD, I would : read the commend by the critics and see if it is the kind of music I like. : People have deeper understand of a great work because the introduction by : critics. : It is almost impossible for people to read every novel published, but a : critic probably can. There are a variety of novels published every day. Some : of these novels are influential, and others may not be worthwhile to read. : How can people know which novel to read? A critic in the field of novel has : the responsibility to read, to analyze and propose his opinions about the : novels. He can act as the filter of novels, telling the public which novels : are good to read, and thus the valuable ones can be known to people, being ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ How about "excellent publications could be recommended to ?" : influential in the society. Critics usually influence the field of novel more : than the writers do by creating the trend, that is, to declare what is the : most popular genre and what is not. : No matter how good a film an artist creates, it will not be : highly-esteemed to the society unless it is accepted by it. A critic of films : usually plays an important role, too. Many of the movies are too obscured for : the public to understand. Although people know that these movies are of great : metaphor and high reputation, they are not interested to see the movies : because of the lack of understanding. Can a movie which is not appreciated by : most people be of lasting value? I do not think so. Without the introduction : and introspection of a film more friendly to the society, the film can not : have its impact on people. A critic is the one to introduce a work to the : world. : On balance, works cannot be created without artists, but to make in of : lasting value is critics' duty. Only after a work is well known to the public : because of the critics' introduction can it be everlasting. Maybe some words could be applied in this issue, like fantastic, excellent, innovative, outrageous(?), precious, touching, or something like that. --
