　　PART IV: Translation

　　Directions: Write your translations in your answer sheet.

　　Section A: Translate the underlined sentences into good Chinese. (15 points)

　　On the whole, books are less limited than ourselves. (1) Often they sit on the shelves absorbing dust long after the writer has turned into a handful of dust—and it is precisely the appetite for this posthumous dimension that sets one’s pen in motion.

　　So as we toss and turn these rectangular objects in our hands we won’t be terribly amiss if we surmise that we fondle, as it were, the urns with our returning ashes. After all, what goes into writing a book is, ultimately, a man’s only life. (2) Whoever said that to philosophize is an exercise in dying was right in more ways than one, for by writing a book nobody gets younger.

　　Nor does one become any younger by reading one. Since this is so, our natural preference should be for good books. The paradox, however, lies in the fact that in literature “good” is defined by its distinction from “bad”. (3) What’s more, to write a good book, a writer must read a great deal of pulp—otherwise he won’t be able to develop the necessary criteria. That’s what may constitute bad literature’s best defense at the Last Judgment.

　　Since we are all moribund, and since reading books is time-consuming, we must devise a system that allows us a semblance of economy. Of course, there is no denying the pleasure of holding up with a fat, slow-moving, mediocre novel, but in the end, we read not for reading’s sake but to learn. (4) Hence the need for the works that brings the human predicament into its sharpest possible focus. Hence, too, the need for some compass in the ocean of available printed matter.

　　(5) The role of that compass, of course, is played by literary criticism, by reviewers. Alas, its needle oscillates wildly. What is north for some is south for others. The trouble with a reviewer is threefold: (a) he can be a hack, and as ignorant as ourselves; (b) he can have strong predilections for a certain kind of writing or simply be on the take with the publishing industry, and (c) if he is a writer of talent, he will turn his review writing into an independent art from—Jorge Luis Borges is a case in point—and you may end up reading reviews rather than the books.
