美国的知识分子
——2006年英译汉及详解
Is it true that the American intellectual is rejected and considered of no account in his society? I am going to suggest that it is not true. Father Bruckberger told part of the story when he observed that it is the intellectuals who have rejected America. But they have done more than that. They have grown dissatisfied with the role of intellectual. It is they, not America, who have become anti-intellectual.
First, the object of our study pleads for definition. What is an intellectual?【F1】
I shall define him as an individual who has elected as his primary duty and pleasure in life the activity of thinking in a Socratic way about moral problems.
He explores such problems consciously, articulately, and frankly, first by asking factual questions, then by asking moral questions, finally by suggesting action which seems appropriate in the light of the factual and moral information which he has obtained.【F2】
His function is analogous to that of a judge, who must accept the obligation of revealing in as obvious a manner as possible the course of reasoning which led him to his decision.
This definition excludes many individuals usually referred to as intellectuals—the average scientist, for one.【F3】
I have excluded him because, while his accomplishments may contribute to the solution of moral problems, he has not been charged with the task of approaching any but the factual aspects of those problems.
Like other human beings, he encounters moral issues even in the everyday performance of his routine duties—he is not supposed to cook his experiments, manufacture evidence, or doctor his reports.【F4】
But his primary task is not to think about the moral code which governs his activity, any more than a businessman is expected to dedicate his energies to an exploration of rules of conduct in business.
During most of his waking life he will take his code for granted, as the businessman takes his ethics.
The definition also excludes the majority of teachers, despite the fact that teaching has traditionally been the method whereby many intellectuals earn their living.【F5】
They may teach very well and more than earn their salaries, but most of them make little or no independent reflections on human problems which involve moral judgment.
This description even fits the majority of eminent scholars. Being learned in some branch of human knowledge is one thing, living in "public and illustrious thoughts," as Emerson would say, is something else.
【F3】
选项
答案
我之所以把普通科学家排除在外,是因为尽管他的成就可能有助于解决道德问题,但他承担的任务只是触及了这些问题的事实层面。
解析
本句考查的重点是:让步状语从句和原因状语从句。 这个句子的结构是主句加上一个本身带有让步状语从句的原因状语从句。主句部分主要考查了指代关系。其中,当第一次出现代词“him”的时候,不难发现它指代的就是最近的中心词“average scientist”(一般科学家)。而在后面的原因状语从句中,则再一次考查了“his”的指代关系。根据“代一不代二”的原则,同句出现反复指代,那么只要翻译首次出现的代词即可。因此,这里的“his”可以直接翻译为“他的”。
