问题   During the whole of a dull, dark, and soundless day in the autumn of the year, when the clouds hung oppressively low in the heavens, I had been passing alone, on horseback, through a singularly dreary tract of country; and at length found myself, as the shades of the evening drew on, within view of the melancholy House of Usher. I know not how it was--but, with the first glimpse of the building, a sense of insufferable gloom pervaded my spirit. I say insufferable; for the feeling was unrelieved by any of that haft-pleasurable, because poetic, sentiment, with which the mind usually receives even the sternest natural images of the desolate or terrible. I looked upon the scene before me--upon the mere house, and the simple landscape features of the domain--upon the bleak walls--upon the vacant eye-like windows--upon a few rank sedges--and upon a few white trunks of decayed trees--with an utter depression of soul which I can compare to no earthly sensation more properly than to the after-dream of the reveller upon opium--the bitter lapse into every-day life--the hideous dropping off of the veil. There was an iciness, a sinking, a sickening of the heart--an unredeemed drearineas of thought which no goading of the imagination could torture into aught of the sublime.
选项
答案 不知为什么，一看见那座房舍，我心中便充满了一种不堪忍受的抑郁。我说不堪忍受，因为那种抑郁无论如何也没法排遣，而往常即便到更凄凉的荒郊野地、更可怕的险山恶水，我也能从山情野趣中获得几分喜悦，从而使愁悒得到减轻。望着眼前的景象——那孤零零的房舍、房舍周围的地形、萧瑟的垣墙、空茫的窗眼、几丛茎叶繁芜的莎草、几株枝干渗白的枯树——我心中极度的抑郁真难用人间常情来比拟，也许只能比作鸦片服用者清醒后的感受：重新堕入现实生活之痛苦、重新撩开那层面纱之恐惧。我感到一阵冰凉、一阵虚脱、一阵心悸、一阵无法摆脱的凄怆、一阵任何想象力都无法将其理想化的悲凉。
