三）短文翻译
（1）
Most people see the problem of love primarily as that of being love than that of loving, of one’s capacity

to love. Hence the problem to them is how to be loved, how to be lovable. In pursuit of this aim they follow several paths. One, which is especially used by men, is to be successful, to be as powerful and rich as the social margin of one’s position permits. Another, used especially by women, is to make oneself attractive, by cultivating one’s body, dress, etc. other ways of making oneself attractive, used both by men and women, are to develop pleasant meaning, interesting conversation, to be helpful, modest, inoffensive.

The True Artist
Norman Bethume
The true artist lets himself go. He is natural. He swims easily in the stream of his own temperament. He listens to himself. He respects himself.
He comes into the light of everyday like a great leviathan of the deep, breaking the smooth surface of accepted things, gay, serious, sportive. His appetite for life is enormous. He enters eagerly into the life of man, all men. He becomes all men in himself.
The function of the artist is to disturb. His duty is to arouse the sleepers, to shake the complacent pillars of the world. He reminds the world of its dark ancestry, shows the world its present, and points the way to its new birth. He is at once the product and preceptor of his time. After his passage, we are troubled and made unsure of our too-easily accepted realities. He makes uneasy the static, the set and the still. In a world terrified of change, he preaches revolution ---- the principle of life. He is an agitator, a disturber of the peace ---- quick, impatient, positive, restless and disquieting. He is the creative spirit working in the soul of man.
