阅读下面文字,完成后面题目。

    中国文艺评论史上有一种非常独特的评论样式——“评点”。“评点”始于唐,兴于宋,成于明。金圣叹评点《水浒传》、李卓吾评点《西游记》、张竹坡评点《金瓶梅》、脂砚斋评点《 红楼梦》等等,都是“评点体”文艺评论的代表作品。综合、直观、凝练,是“评点体”的主要特征。无论是金圣叹评水浒,还是脂砚斋评红楼,时而把目光聚焦于作品本身,剖析其艺术特色,时而论及作者及其所处的时代,揭示作品背后的社会文化环境,所使用的语言自成特色,三言两语、简短犀利、睿智幽默,常令人掩卷深思或会心一笑。而且,“评点体”紧贴文本展开,既是对原作的再创造又和原作融为一体,为作品 经典化做出了重要贡献。这些“评点”既提升阅读快感,又促进对作品的理解,具有独特的价值。不过,传统意义上的“评点”其外在形态是用笔写下的语句,必须依存予以文字为载体的原作。随着历史进入近现代,视听艺术蓬勃发展,“评点”也似乎已失去了用武之地。

    现在,“弹幕”又来了,评论者对作品的评点可以借助网络工具,以字幕的形式如子弹般密集、快速地呈现在屏幕上,这也是“弹幕”得名的由来。于是,评论的互动性和即时性进一步增强,评论和作品文本的融合度也进一步提高,对此,舆论反应喜忧参半。喜的是“弹幕”的出现,提高了欣赏者和消费者在艺术中的主体性;忧的是不受控制以及低水平的“吐槽”,破坏了作品本身的美惑以及艺术欣赏的完整性。

    “弹幕”是从互联网的母体中诞生的,弹幕时代的“金圣叹”同样也将在互联网中孕育。作为互联网时代的“金圣叹”,有的时候,他们一条微博,寥寥一百四十字,就能对文艺创作者和欣赏者产生巨大的影响。此外,不少弹幕时代的“金圣叹”还承担着“文化搬运工”的使命,把学院派、理论化的文艺评论转化为大众愿意听、听得懂的格言警句,让评论者与创作者的对话更加直接,评论者对欣赏者的引导更加有效,进而使评论以前所未有的深度介入到文艺创作生产、欣赏消费、传播反馈的全链条之中。

    可以预计,随着互联网技术的发展及其与艺术的进一步融合,“弹幕”还会得到更深远的发展,而其发展路径大体上有两大走向。一是“弹幕”介入的领域进一步拓展,也就是说,“弹幕”的使用或许会逐渐从影视扩展到戏剧、曲艺等艺术门类,尤其是相声、二人转这些本身就具有强烈互动性的艺术门类,可能会较早地与“弹幕”结缘。二是“弹幕”向“平台”的回归。“弹幕”说到底是一种技术,真正有价值的是技术承载的内容。最后,弹幕也许就会成为文艺作品经典化的重要台阶。经过时间的积淀,那些耐人品味的评论将沉淀下来,与原作一起成为网络时代的艺术新经典,将作品的社会意义推向一个崭新的高度。
