The role of translation enabling literature to pass beyond its natural frontiers is receiving growing recognition. In view of the general increase in this field, it is not surprising that many   people with literary interests and a knowledge of languages should think of adopting translating as a full-or part-time occupation. Some advice may usefully be given to such would-be translators.The first difficulty the beginner will encounter is the unwillingness of publishers to entrust a translator to anyone who has not already established a reputation for sound work. The least publishers  will demand before commissioning a translator is a fairly lengthy specimen of the applicant’s work, even if unpublished. Perhaps the best way the would-be translator can begin is to select some books of the type which he or she feels competent and eager to translate, translate a main section of   the book and then submit the book and the translation to a suitable publisher. If he or she is extremely lucky, this may result in a commission to translate the book. More probably, however, publishers will reject the book as such but if they are favorably exclude by the translation, they  may very possibly commission some other books of a affected nature which they already have in mind.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 43 to 50.

Born in 1830 in rural Amherst, Massachusetts, Emily Dickinson spent her entire life in the household of her parents. Between 1858 and 1862, it was later discovered, she wrote like a person possessed, often producing a poem a day. It was also during this period that her life was transformed into the myth of Amherst.

Withdrawing more and more, keeping to her room sometimes even refusing to see visitors who called, she began to dress only in white - a habit that added to her reputation as an eccentric.

In their determination to read Dickinson's life in terms of a traditional romantic plot, biographers have missed the unique pattern of her life - her struggle to create a female life not yet imagined by the culture in which she lived. Dickinson was not the innocent, lovelorn and emotionally fragile girl sentimentalized by the Dickinson myth and popularized by William Luce’s 1976 play, The BeIle of Amherst. Her decision to shut the door on Amherst society in the 1950's transformed her house into a kind of magical realm in which she was free to engage her poetic genius. Her seclusion was not the result of a failed love affairs but rather a part of a more general pattern of renunciation through which she, in her quest for self – sovereignty, carried on an argument with the Puritan fathers, attacking with wit and irony their cheerless Calvinist doctrine, their stern patriarchal God, and their rigid notions of "true womanhood."

It can be inferred from the passage that Emily Dickinson lived in a society that was characterized by _______.

A. strong Puritan beliefs

B. equality of men and women

C. the encouragement of nonconformity

D. the appreciation of poetic creativity
