3、ted, full-le ngth portrait of a tee nage girl owned by a member of the Austen family has come up for sale.Although the professional painting is not titled Jane Austen, there are good reasons to believe she is the subject.簡奧斯汀是最有名的英國小說家之一。時至今日，她的作品變得更受歡迎了，有數(shù)部被好萊塢改編成電影了。但是對于她的長相卻沒有太多的記錄。很長一段時間以來，唯一被認可

4、的奧斯汀的畫像是她妹妹卡桑德拉畫的。 但是這幅成年奧斯汀素描并不是岀自于專業(yè)畫家。然而，最近一副奧斯汀家族成員持有的畫像想要岀售。這幅 岀自專業(yè)畫家之手的全身畫像上面是一個少女奧斯汀。盡管這幅專業(yè)畫作上并沒有寫有簡奧斯汀，但是我們還是有足夠的理由相信畫上的人就是她。First, i n 1882, several decades after Auste n' s death,Auste n' s family gave permissi on to use the portrait as aillustrati on in an editi on of her letters.

5、 Auste nclearly recog njzfecmtlyis a portrait of the author. So, for over acentury now, the Austen family itself has endorsed the claim that the girl in the portrait is Jane Austen.首先，在1882年，在奧斯汀去世幾十年后，奧斯汀家族曾經(jīng)授權(quán)這幅畫作為她岀版的書信集上本人畫像。奧 斯汀家族當(dāng)然能夠確認這幅畫就是作者。所以，一個多世紀過去了，奧斯汀家族還是為這幅畫背書，認為這個 女孩就是簡奧斯汀本人。Second, t

7、the tee nage girl in the pain ti ng. The eyebrows, no se, mouth, and overall shape of the face are very much like those in the full-le ngth portrait.第二，這幅畫上人物的面容和卡桑德拉畫的那幅畫很相似，而卡桑德拉的畫作上的人物確定是奧斯汀。盡管卡桑德拉的畫作略顯業(yè)余，但是還是很好地描繪了奧斯汀面部的細節(jié)的。盡管卡桑德拉的畫描繪的是成年簡奧斯汀，但是面部細節(jié)還是同這幅畫上少女奧斯汀非常相似的。眉毛、鼻子、嘴和整個輪廓都跟這幅全身畫作非常相似。Thir

8、d, although the painting is un sig ned and un dated, there is evide nce that it was pain ted whe n Auste n was a teen ager. The style links it to Ozias Humphrey, a society portrait pain ter who was the kind of professi onal the wealthy Austen family would hire. Humphrey was active in the late 1780s

9、and early 1790s, exactly the period when Jane Austen was the age of the girl in the pain ti ng.第三，機關(guān)這幅畫沒有署名也沒有日期，但是確信這幅畫的繪制時間是奧斯汀少女時期。這幅畫從風(fēng)格上看 是奧扎厄斯 漢弗里的作品。他是一個專門受雇于奧斯汀這樣富有家族的上流社會肖像畫家。漢弗里活躍時期是 1780末到170年初，而這個時期恰好正是簡奧斯汀十幾歲的時期。托福TP012綜合寫作 閱讀部分需要提取的觀點是:-Main point:有一副畫上面的人物是簡奧斯汀-Sub poi nt 1:這幅畫得到了奧斯汀家

10、族的認可-Sub point 2:面容同簡 奧斯汀的另一幅畫很像-Sub poi nt 3:風(fēng)格上看是奧扎厄斯?jié)h弗里的作品，此人活躍時期簡奧斯汀的年齡同畫作相符托福TPO12綜合寫作 聽力材料：The evidenee linking this portrait to Jane Austen is not at all convincing.

11、s hardly proves itAuste n as a tee nager. The readi ng' s argume nts that the portrait is of Auste n are questi on able at best.所有證明這幅畫上人物是簡奧斯汀的證據(jù)都是不足信的。當(dāng)然，這幅畫長期以來同奧斯汀家族極其后代保持著某種意義上的聯(lián)系。但是，這都不足以證明畫中問人是少女簡奧斯汀。First, when the portrait was authorized for use in the 1882 publication of her letters, J

12、ane Austenhad bee n dead for almost 70 years. So, the family members who asserted that the painting was Jane had n ever actually see n her themselves. They could n' t have known for certa in if the portrait was of Auste n or not.首先，當(dāng)奧斯汀家族在1882年授權(quán)在她書信集中使用這幅肖像畫的時候，簡奧斯汀已經(jīng)過時差不多70年了所以，聲稱畫中人物是簡奧斯汀的家庭成
