But The Three-Bdy Prblem was unlike anything Ken had ever read. A mind-bending stry was full f heady technical passages abut physics thery, mixed with prfund mral questins and humanity's place in the university. S capturing the nvel in all its cmplexity seemed discuraging.
When the English translatin f The Three-Bdy Prblem was published, it was described as a grund breaking wrk f speculative fictin(推理小说). Liu Cixin, the authr f the riginal wrk said, “Usually when Chinese literature gets translated int a freign language, it tends t lse smething. But I dn't think that happened t The Three-Bdy Prblem.

One day, he asked Ken fr his pinin n an English translatin f ne f his stries, which was frm a translatin cmpany. Ken wasn't impressed and ffered t edit it, but ended up reding the translatin frm scratch. Chen was cmpletely mved by Ken's spirit.
Ken's apprach t translatin is unrthdx(非正统的). Strict lyalty t the surce material is nt his chief gal, nr is prducing a smth, Americanized versin. “It's nt a wrd-by-wrd recreatin,” he said. “It's abut hw I shw the verall effect.” Rather than ignring cultural and spken differences that wuld be lst n mst Western readers, he tries t stress them.
19. Which f the fllwing can best describe the task f translating The Three-Bdy Prblem?

With its ability t pass dwn cmplex infrmatin acrss many generatins, human language almst certainly played a sizable part in humans’ ability t becme a dminant species n the planet. Despite this, we knw precius little abut hw human language develped. A paper published in Frntiers in Psychlgy prpses that we shuld lk at ancient cave art t gain insights int hw ur ability fr language came t be.
“Language desn't fssilize(石化), but maybe in these cave drawings, we can see sme f the beginnings f human beings as symblic beings,” said Shigeru Miyagawa, MIT linguist(语言学家) prfessr and the paper's lead authr. Miyagawa and his c-authrs prpse that cave paintings exist at the intersectin f cmmunicatin between visual and aural(听觉的) cues.
“The linguists’ thery cmes frm the fact that many f the caves where art has been fund are acustic(声音的)“ht spts”. In these caves, sunds ech.(发出回声) luder and mre intensely as ne ges deeper. Many f the drawings are lcated in these sectins f the cave, and even sme areas that wuld have been better fr drawing n walls were ignred in favr f these spts. The drawings wuld then shw sunds that humans made while in the caves. Think abut hw many examples f cave art that shw varius fur-legged animals, including hrses. The eching f nises, be it tapping n rcks inside the cave r thunder frm utside the cave, wuld have created sunds like hrses running acrss the grund.
This mix f sund and visual representatin,” they write, “allwed early humans t enhance their ability t cnvey symblic thinking t their fellws, as well as their ability t prcess aural and visual input as symblic.”Such symblic thinking culd have led t develping ther types f cmmunicatin, including sentences.
Of curse, this is nt a declarative statement. A great deal mre research is required befre anything can be said in a definitive way. One thing Miyagawa des feet cnfident abut is that it will further cnversatins abut the imprtance f ur art in ur develpment as a species.
27. What des the paper published in Frntiers in Psychlgy fcus n?
A. The rigin f human beings.B. The imprtance f visual cmmunicatin.
C. The cnnectin between cave art and language.D. The determining factrs f language develpment.
28. What is Paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A. The significance f ancient cave drawings.B. The thery abut the frmatin f the caves.
C. The sites where cave drawings were discvered.D. The evidence that supprts linguists' assumptin.
29. What might the mix f sund and visual representatin in cave paintings cntribute t?
A. The change f human thinking.B. The start f symblic develpment.
C. The imprvement in cmmunicatin.D. The increase in the diversity f languages.
30. Which f the fllwing best describes the authr's attitude t the study?
