ⅰ. translate the following literary passage into chinese. (50 points)

the special status of literature is recognized by marx in a celebrated passage in his , in which the problem of an apparent discrepancy between economic and artistic development is discussed. greek tragedy is considered a peak of literary development and yet it coincides with a social system and a form of ideology (greek myth) which are no longer valid for modern society. the problem for marx was to explain how an art and literature produced in a long-obsolete social organization can still give us aesthetic pleasure and be regarded as ‘a standard and unattainable ideal’. he seems to be accepting reluctantly a certain ‘timelessness’ and ‘universality’ in literature and art; reluctantly, because this would be a major concession to one of bourgeois ideology’s premises. however, it is now possible to s

the physiology of sounds is often called phonetics. to me this name seems inappropriate. instead, i shall use . for phonetics first designated — and should continue to designate — the study of the evolutions of sounds.
