word="C">C</span>）意为：它对社会责任的忽视。 第一段指出，没有哪个公司喜欢别人说它导致了全国道德败坏，多尔参议员所指责时代华纳公司的正是这一点。他说：难道这就是你们的经营目标吗，你们出卖了自己的灵魂，难道你们也想毁了国家、危及我们的孩子吗？另从第三、四段来看，这里多尔所指责的正是该公司用它的音乐作品带来的社会影响，多尔认为这些音乐作品对社会和青少年有不良影响。 <span word="A">A</span> 意为：它将公司股价提高。从多尔所说的话来看，他关心的不是该公司的经济状况。 <span word="B">B</span> 意为：它对灵魂的自我检验。第一段第三句指出，对时代沃纳公司来说，多尔所质疑的问题只不过是公司自创立以来一直进行的自我反省的最新表述，在公司发展的不同阶段，这一自我反省涉及（社会）责任、创作自由、公司利润（<span word="bottom">bottom</span> <span word="line">line</span>）。换言之，在公司的发展过程中，社会责任、创作自由、公司能否赚钱这三者之间的矛盾一直困扰着公司。根据公司董事长列文的话（见第三段），公司把创作自由放在了发展的首位。这造成了它对作品的社会影响的忽视，所以，后来列文改变态度以后，承认应该在创作自由和社会责任上寻找一个平衡点（见第四段）。可见，多尔参议员所指责的正是公司的所作所为带来的不良社会影响，这样他就击中了要害。 <span word="D">D</span> 意为：它对创作自由的强调。见上文分析。 64.（<span word="D">D</span>）回答这一问题主要涉及对第二段第一句中 <span word="late">late</span> 的理解。 除其他意思外，该词有前，已故的等意思。一般来讲，该词加在人名或称呼前时译作已故的、如：<span word="the">the</span> <span word="late">late</span> <span word="Mr">Mr</span>. <span word="Green">Green</span> 已故格林先生，<span word="her">her</span> <span word="late">late</span> <span word="husband">husband</span> 她的前夫（已故），若加在头衔前，则要据情况而译，如：<span word="the">the</span> <span word="late">late</span> <span word="president">president</span> 前总统（也可能已故，也可能仅指刚刚卸职）。第二段第一句可译为：处于争议中心的是董事长杰拉德？列文，他在 1992年前董事长史蒂夫？罗斯去世后继任，今年 56 岁。 <span word="A">A</span> 意为：路斯是时代沃纳公司的发言人。在最后一段第二句，路斯仅被称作 <span word="insider">insider</span>（内部人士，知情人士），他说：我们有些人多年来一直知道（宪法）第一修正案中所规定的自由并非是无限制的自由，我想可能公司的某些人最近才意识到这一点。他的话说明了公司领导内部对处理创作自由和社会影响这一对矛盾上的不同看法、也暗含着对公司一贯政策（过于强调创作自由）的批评。可见，他并非公司指派的发言人，而仅代表自己。 <span word="B">B</span> 意为：列文倾向于妥协。根据第三段中列文所说的话，他是一个持强硬立场的人。他说：检验任何民主社会的标准不是看它如何严厉地控制（思想的）表达，而是看它是否给人以最大限度的思想和表达思想的自由。我们不会屈服于任何威胁。但是，在这次的争议中，虽然列文也在为公司发行的音乐作品争辩，但他也做出了某些程度的让步（参阅第四段第一句）。由此可见，列文并非是个易于妥协的人。 <span word="C">C</span> 意为：在这场争议中。时代沃纳公司团结一致。不对，例如上文所提到的路斯的观点。 65.（<span word="B">B</span>）意为：态度有所缓和，采取了某种新政策。 第四段指出，列文对上周的争议拒绝评价，但有迹象表明他正在放弃自己的强硬立场-至少在某种程度上可以这样说。在上月讨论摇滚乐歌词的董事会上，列文强调音乐并不引起社会丑恶现象，他甚至举了他儿子的例子。但是，他同时也谈到了创作自由与社会责任保持平衡的问题，他表示，公司将为音乐的发行和标识（<span word="labeling">labeling</span> 指：标识作品或产品的应用对象，如：是否适应于青少年使用等）制定标准。可见，列文在做出妥协姿态的同时，也采取了实际的行动。 <span word="A">A</span> 意为：坚持强硬立场保护思想表达自由。 <span word="C">C</span> 意为：改变其态度并向反对派屈服。与 <span word="B">B</span> 表达的内容相比，<span word="C">C</span> 表达的内容语气太强。因为，正如第四段第一句所说的，列文仅做出了某种程度的让步（<span word="to">to</span> <span word="some">some</span> <span word="extent">extent</span>）。 <span word="D">D</span> 意为：获得了董事会15 位成员更多的支持。虽然董事会一直支持列文及其公司经营战略，但在这次的争议中，意见出现了分歧。参阅第 64 题题解。 66.（<span word="A">A</span>）意为：遭到责难的公司。 从以上的分析可以看出，本文主要是评述了时代华纳公司因发行新音乐专辑而受到的责难及其反应。 <span word="B">B</span> 意为：一场关于道德败坏的争论。这个题目太宽泛。更何况，时代华纳公司所被指责的主要是它对社会责任的忽视，而并非它所发行的作品所带来的实际社会影响。 <span word="C">C</span> 意为：街头文化的合法表达（途径）。 <span word="D">D</span> 意为：一种表现创作自由的形式 翻译句子 1、<span word="The">The</span> <span

没有一家公司乐意听到别人说自己引起了社会的道德败坏。参议员罗伯特？多尔上星期质问时代华纳公司高级人员时说：难道这就是你们要成就的事业吗？你们已经出卖了自己的灵魂，难道你们还非要腐化我们的国家，威胁我们的孩子不成？不过，对于成立于1990年的时代华纳公司而言，这样的质问仅仅只是公司自我反思的最新表白，是在不同时期涉及责任、创作自由和公司底线问题的自我反省。 于1992年接替已故董事长斯蒂夫？罗斯的56岁的现任董事长杰拉德？莱文是争论的焦点人物。财政方面，他承受着抬高股价，减少公司巨额债务的压力。在两笔新的有线电视交易谈妥后，债务将达到173亿美元。他也答应出售部分财产并重组公司，但现在投资者们仍在焦急地等待着。 人们对说唱音乐的焦虑并没使他的日子变得好过。莱文一向以它是一种富于表现力的演唱方式为理由来捍卫公司的说唱音乐。1992年公司因出品<span word="Ice">Ice</span>-<span word="T">T</span>乐队狂暴的说唱歌曲《警察杀手》后备受谴责时，莱文说这是街头文化的合法表达方式，它应该有自己的宣泄途径。他在《华尔街日报》一篇专栏文章中写道：任何一个民主社会的检验不在于它能多有效地控制各种情感的表达，而在于是否给予了人们思考和表达的最广泛的自由，尽管有时这种结果会引起争论和愤怒。我们不会在任何威胁面前退却。 莱文不愿对上周的辩论做出评论，但有迹象表明这位董事长的强硬立场起码在一定程度上有所缓和。在上个月的股东会议上，大家就摇滚乐的歌词进行了讨论。莱文宣称音乐不是社会问题的病因，他甚至还以自己为例。他的儿子是纽约州布朗克斯的一个教师，用说唱乐的表达方式与学生进行交流。但他也谈到了创作自由和社会责任之间要保持平衡的问题。他还宣布公司将致力于为一些人们可能会反感的音乐制定发行和标识的标准。 总的来说，时代华纳公司的15位董事是支持莱文和公司的经营策略的。但内部人士透露其中几位对此事表示担忧。我们中的一些人多年来就知道宪法第一修正案所说的自由并非毫无限制，鲁斯说，我想与公司有关系的一些人可能是最近才意识到这一点。</p>
