It would show its willingness to stand up in defense of civil liberties and human rights,even when such a defense could be viewed with disfavor(不悦) by the world’s dominant military power.But it may be too late for Snowden to receive the award this year.However,Svallfors’ nomination should be taken seriously by the committee for next year’s prize.As a sociology professor at Umea University,he counts as one of the qualified people who can send their nominations to the committee.

　　The Nobel Peace Prize has been awarded to 100 individuals.It was the last prize described in Alfred Nobel’s will.The peace prize is awarded each year to “the person who shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations,for the abolition(废除) or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses.”Though Snowden is qualified for nomination for the December 2017 prize,it’s unlikely he’d be able to travel to Oslo for the award ceremony.Snowden applied for asylum(庇护) in Norway on July 2,but the country then planned to reject it according to their national law.If Snowden is awarded the prize in 2017,he would be the youngest Nobel Peace Laureate in the history of the prize.

　　47According to Professor Svallfors,why should Edward Snowden be recommended for the Nobel Peace Prize?

　　A.Because he helps people to get freedom.

　　B.Because he will help people live a happier and healthier life.
