问题     The central problem of translating has always been whether to
translate literally or freely. The argument has been going since at least 【M1】______
the first century B.C.Up to the beginning of the 19th century, many
writers favoured certain kind of "free" translation: the spirit, not the 【M2】______
letter; the sense not the word; the message rather the form; the matter【M3】______
not the manner. This is the often revolutionary slogan of writers who 【M4】______
wanted the truth to be read and understood. Then in the turn of the 【M5】______
19th century, when the study of cultural anthropology suggested that
the linguistic barriers were insuperable and that the language was 【M6】______
entirely the product of culture, the view translation was impossible 【M7】______
gained some currency, and with it that, if was attempted at all, it must【M8】______
be as literal as possible. This view culminated the statement of the 【M9】______
extreme "literalists" Walter Benjamin and Vladimir Nobokov. The
argument was theoretical: the purpose of the translation, the nature of
the readership, the type of the text, was not discussed.Too often,
writer, translator and reader were implicitly identified with each
other. Now, the context has changed, and the basic problem remains.【M10】______

答案the language—language
解析 冠词使用错误。是否加定冠词的重要区别在于该名词在文中是特指还是泛指。此处提到语言并非专指某种语言，而是泛指语言这个概念，因此应当去掉定冠词。
