It was not the originality of the idea that made these satires popular. It was the manner of expression, the satiric method, that made them interesting and entertaining. Satires are read because they are aesthetically satisfying works of art, not because they are morally wholesome or ethically instructive. They are stimulating and refreshing because with common sense briskness they brush away illusions and secondhand opinions. With spontaneous irreverence, satire rearranges perspectives, scrambles familiar objects into incongruous juxtaposition and speaks in a personal idiom instead of abstract platitude.
Satire exists because there is need for it. It has lived because readers appreciate a refreshing stimulus, an irreverent reminder that they live in a world of platitudinous thinking, cheap moralizing, and foolish philosophy.

答案
讽刺文学之所以受欢迎并不是因为其观点的独特性,而是因为它的表达方式和讽刺的手段使之显得有趣。阅读讽刺文学不是因为其思想的健康或是有教育意义,而是因为它们是美学角度上一件令人满意的艺术作品。它们很刺激,也令人耳目一新,因为它们以一种常识的敏锐扫除了一切幻想和道听途说的观点。它们天生蔑视一切,要重整人们的视角,搅乱熟悉的事物使之不和谐,而且这些都是通过个性化的习语而非抽象的陈词滥调来表达的。 讽刺文学的存在是因为有对它的需求。它之所以延续下来是因为它给读者带来耳目一新的刺激,毫不留情地提醒着它们生存的世界是一个充满陈腐思想、廉价道德和愚蠢哲学的地方,而这些恰恰赢来读者的欣赏。
