Between the ages of about seventeen and twenty-four I tried to abandon this idea, but I did so with the consciousness that I was outraging my true nature and that sooner or later I should have to settle down and write books.　　I was the middle child of three, but there was a gap of five years on either side, and I barely saw my father before I was eight. For this and other reasons I was somewhat lonely, and I soon developed disagreeable mannerisms which made me unpopular throughout my schooldays. I had the lonely childs habit of making up stories and holding conversations with imaginary persons, and I think from the very start my literary ambitions were mixed up with the feeling of being isolated and undervalued. I knew that I had a facility with words and a power of facing unpleasant facts, and I felt that this created a sort of private world in which I could get my own back for my failure in everyday life. Nevertheless the volume of serious — i.e. seriously intended — writing which I produced all through my childhood and boyhood would not amount to half a dozen pages. I wrote my first poem at the age of four or five, my mother taking it down to dictation.　　_______________________　　1. grew 后加 up　　2. conscience 改成 consciousness　　3. soon 改成 sooner　　4. the 去掉　　5. disagreeing 改成 disagreeable　　6. imaginative 改成 imaginary　　7. literal 改成 literary　　8. in 去掉　　9. which 前加 in　　10.

而最让现代人感到尴尬的是，面对重重矛盾，许多时候你别无选择匆忙与休闲是截然不同的两种生活方式但在现实生活中，人们却在这两种生活方式间频繁穿梭，有时也说不清自己到底是“休闲着”还是“忙碌着”譬如说，当我们正在旅游胜地享受假期，却忽然接到老板的，搞恶我们客户或工作方面出了麻烦——现代便捷先进工具在此刻显示出了它狰狞、阴郁的面容——搞得人一下子兴趣全无接下来的休闲只能徒有其表，因为心里已是火烧火燎了　　2011年专八真题参考答案：汉译英部分　　Being hasty and at leisure are two quite distinct lifestyles. But in the real world, people have to frequently shuttle between these two lifestyles, sometimes not sure whether they are “at ease” or “in a rush”.　　For example, we are enjoying our holidays in the resort while suenly we receive phone calls from the boss who tells us there are some troubles with our customers and work----so at this moment the modern, convenient and advanced device shows its vicious and gloomy features---and we lose all our interest. The subsequent leisure is the mere showy for we are in a restless and anxious state of mind.2011年专八真题参考答案：英译汉部分2011年专八真题英译汉参考答案：　　当飞机飞越尼泊尔的上空，你的想象力很容易开始翱翔，你很小，就像一只小蝴蝶，飞在一幅三维的建筑地形图上，那些环绕着每个高脊的梯田就像图中环形的等高线。

　　尼泊尔是一个小国，我们的飞机东向平稳飞行，从一万两千英尺的高空向下看，透过左侧的窗户，可以清楚看见下方三十英里处笼罩着雄伟喜马拉雅山的那白色的神奇海市蜃楼　　转向右侧的窗口，看到的是三、四级高的层层梯田，可不一会它们就被印度境内的广阔平原所代替了　　下方清晰可见极少的几条路在尼泊尔最主要的出行方式是步行，尼泊尔人在纵横连接国家的条条古道上留下了足印除此以外，这个国家还有空中网络，虽然机场简易且灰多，但对我来说，确是非常地幸运，因为我没花上两个个半星期的时间，通过陆路，艰苦跋涉到达目的地我当时在去当地机场的飞机上2011年专八真题答案（网友回忆版仅供参考）：　　　2011年专八阅读参考答案：　　11-15 ADDAB 16-20 DDBCA 21-25 DBCBA 26-30 DBACB　　2011年专八人文知识参考答案：　　31.
