填空题Translate the following passage into Chinese.(辽宁大学2008研,考试科目:英语专业基础)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 half-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 reveler 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 dreariness of thought which no goading of the imagination could torture into aught of the sublime. What was it, I paused to think, what was it that so unnerved me in the contemplation of the House of Usher?

B. Make conversations about your artwork a priority
C. Read before you fall asleep
D. Carry a notepad and pen about
E. Take notes whenever ideas come
F. Talk about yourself as much as possible
G. Don"t underestimate thinking time
Most of us will have days or weeks when we can"t make as much stuff as we"d like. Things get busy, we have jobs, families and lives which means occasionally you"ll be out of time to sit down and make art. There are some simple tips you can try to maximize the thinking and considering time that can help fuel your creative work.
1
This is a classic subconscious-employing trick, used a lot for when you really need to study and remember material. If you want to think more about your artwork, read about it just before you fall asleep. Studies show that your brain remembers more and thinks subconsciously about the information you process just before going into rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. If you"re reading a book on creativity you really want to digest, this is a great strategy to help stimulate your own creative process.
2
Take notes. Lots of notes. No matter what time of day (or night). Give keeping a notepad and pen beside your bed, and always carry one in your handbag or pocket. Some strategies you could try are making lists of future or potential artwork. Taking notes can be valuable in their offhanded, in- discriminate format—sometimes they"re not important or playful, and sometimes they can be tiny seeds of gold.
3
Get rid of the guilt around talking about yourself too much. It can really help to regularly make the effort to speak about what you"ve been working on. There"s a learning curve that comes out of forcing yourself to name things. Set up catch-ups or phone calls with other artists to check in with each other regarding your work. Hopefully these conversations can happen with family and friends or co-workers, and can be used as an artistic compass to check you are on course, on the whole, with making work.
4
Use the time you"re driving, on the train, or commuting to and from work to your advantage. Read, listen, think, make lists, or mentally check off your progress. I know artists who use commute time to meditate and reflect on themselves, which is another interesting strategy to try. Using com mute time means that when you do sit down to create work, you"ve often done the heavy thinking and are ready to dive into the practical, hands-on work.
5
When you"re not making artwork, make time to simply think. It seems like many artworks are made after months (or even years) of living inside your own head. Whether you"re at work, walking pets, or doing the dishes, using this time to think hard about your artwork can pay off greatly. You can often surprise yourself with how much progress you can make if you clock the thinking hours. Realizing that this was a thing that was one of the most helpful and insightful lessons I learned as an artist. Thinking time is time well spent.

填空题Translate the following paragraph into Chinese.(郑州大学2007研,考试科目:专业英语)Studies serve for delight, for ornament, and for ability. Their chief use for delight is in privateness and retiring: for ornament, is in discourse: and for ability, is in the judgement and disposition of business. For expert men can execute , and perhaps judge of particulars, one by one: but the general counsels, and the plots and marshalling of affairs, come best from those that are learned. To spend too much time in studies is sloth: to use them too much for ornament is affectation: to make judgement wholly by their rules is the humour of a scholar. They perfect nature, and are perfected by experience: for natural abilities are like natural plants that need pruning by study: and studies themselves do give forth directions too much at large, except they be bounded in by experience.

Do mobile phones cause explosions at petrol stations? That
question has just been exhaustively answered by Adam Burgess, a researcher at
the University of Kent, in England. Oddly, however, Dr Burgess is not a
physicist, but a sociologist. For the concern rests not on scientific evidence
of any danger, but is instead the result of sociological factors: it is an urban
myth, supported and propagated by official sources, but no less a myth for that.
Dr Burgess presented his findings this week at the annual conference of the
British Sociological Association. Mobile phones started to
become widespread in the late 1980s, when the oil industry was in the middle of
a concerted safety drive, Dr Burgess notes. This was, in large part. a response
to the Piper Alpha disaster in 1988, when 167 people died in an explosion on an
oil platform off the Scottish coast. (41)__________So nobody questioned the
precautionary ban on the use of mobile phones at petrol stations. The worry was
that an electrical spark might ignite explosive fumes.
(42)__________But it was too late. The myth had taken hold.
One problem, says Dr Burgess, is that the number of petrol-station fires
increased in the late 1990s, just as mobile phones were proliferating. Richard
Coates, BP's fire-safety adviser, investigated many of the 243 such fires that
occurred around the world between 1993 and 2004. He concluded that most were
indeed caused by sparks igniting petrol vapour, but the sparks themselves were
the result of static electricity, not electrical equipment. Most drivers will
have experienced a mild electric shock when climbing out of their vehicles. It
is caused by friction between driver and seat, with the result that both end up
electrically charged. When the driver touches the metal frame of the vehicle,
the result is sometimes a spark. ( 43 )__________
(44)__________One e-mail contained fictitious examples of such explosions
said to have happened in Indonesia and Australia. Another, supposedly sent out
by Shell, found its way on to an internal website at Exxon, says Dr Burgess,
where it was treated as authoritative by employees. Such memos generally explain
static fires quite accurately, but mistakenly attribute them to mobile phones.
Official denials, says Dr Burgess, simply inflame the suspicions of conspiracy
theorists. (45)__________Warning signs abound in Britain,
America, Canada and Australia. The city of Sao Paulo, in Brazil, introduced a
ban last year. And, earlier this month, a member of Connecticut's senate
proposed making the use of mobile phones in petrol stations in that state
punishable by a $ 250 fine. [A] The safety drive did not apply
merely to offshore operations: employees at some British oil-company offices are
now required to use handrails while walking up and down stairs, for
example. [B] As a result, the company had to pay a huge amount
of compensation to the families of the victims and law suits concerning those
fires seemed to be endless. [C] A further complication was the
rise of the internet, where hoax memos, many claiming to originate from oil
companies, warned of the danger of using mobile phones in petrol
stations. [D] This is particularly noticeable in Britain. The
country that led the way in banning mobile phones at petrol stations is also the
country that has taken the strongest line on the safety of mobile-phone use by
children. [E] Despite the lack of evidence that mobile phones
can cause explosions, bans remain in place around the world, though the rules
vary widely. [F] By tile late 1990s, however, phone
makers—having conducted their own research— realized that there was no danger of
phones causing explosions since they could not generate the required
sparks. [G] This seems to have become more common as plastic car
interiors, synthetic garments and rubber-soled shoes have proliferated.
