　　Ⅱ.简答题

　　If you’ ve visited London recently，the chances are that you passed through the tourist attraction of Trafalgar Square.But since July，the square has looked a little different.There’s a statue being put on top of a plinth(柱基)．But unlike the other statues in the square，this one is alive and kicking.The project，called One & Other，was created by the British artist Antony Gormley，who was invited by the Mayor of London to create a sculpture atop the vacant fourth plinth in the northwestern corner of London’s Trafalgar Square.Instead of sculpting a statue from bronze or marble，Gormley was moved by the idea to place real people on the plinth.The idea was to feature one performer or “plinther” one hour in a continuous 24-hour cycle for 100 days straight.A website has been broadcasting it continuously and the last day of the project is October 19.

　　Antony Gormley said，“ The idea is very simple.Through putting a person onto the plinth，the body becomes a symbol.In the context of Trafalgar Square with its military and historical statues，this elevation of everyday life to the position formerly occupied by monumental art allows us to reflect on the diversity，vulnerability(弱点) and feature of the individual in contemporary society.It’ s about people coming together to do something extraordinary and unpredictable.It could be tragic but it could also be funny.”
