那年冬天,一个人到了深圳,很幸运的搞到一张唐朝
演唱会的票。于是怀着朝圣般的心情,走进了这个中
国短 暂摇滚史上的传奇。
去晚了一些,演出已经开始了。正演奏着的是“飞翔
鸟”,周围有些吵,听不太真切。丁武的嗓音似乎变
浑厚 了些,歌比专辑中更好听了些,但似乎缺少了
点什么。接过一支烟,吸了起来,烟雾从面前飘飞,
耳中也鸣响 起来,周围的一切已变得不那么真切,
台上的乐队也恍恍惚惚。恍惚间却突然明白了,丁武
嗓音中缺少了那种 来自灵魂深处的撕裂、来自文明

唐朝的崩溃还有更深层的文化背景。

曼文化的复归,这一切与东方文明皆是

上是拒绝人性恶这一令题的。同样对于
摇滚文化中另一主题--死亡,他们依然
固囿于孔子的“未知生焉知死”的教
诲。因此,中国人无法理解摇滚文化向
死而生与人性本恶的根本令题。从而使
中国摇滚文化处于一种难堪的境地。一

Recognizing homologies
Biologists use a few criteria to help them decide whether a shared
morphological character (such as the presence of four limbs) is likely to be
a homology:
Same basic structure
The same bones (though differently shaped) support the limbs of mice and
