引领者总是存在于作家和艺术家当中。美国人应该关注到,无论形势看起来怎样岌岌可危,这里的艺术和人文学术研究都是欣欣向荣的。我并不是指作家和艺术家有义务找到美国走出困境的方法,他们至少能澄清它的性质,并能指出它与整体人类状况之间的关系。
【正确答案】：Leaders always exist among writers and artists. Americans should be aware that, no matter how precarious the situation may seem, art and humanities research here is thriving. I don't mean that writers and artists have an obligation to find a way out of America's predicament. They can at least clarify its nature and point out its relationship with the overall human condition.
