【汉译英参考答案】
【参考译文】Life itself led Jack London to reject this approach in his writing. He knew what it meant to be one person deprived of due rights, to be chained to the deadening routine of the machine and to soul-destroying labor for an insufficient reward. Consequently he swept aside not only the literature that pretended that ours is a society of sweetness and light, but also that which contended that the inculcation of the spirit of Christian fellowship would put an end to class conflicts. He did not oppose labor organization nor balk at the strike as a weapon of labor; rather he took his heroes and heroines from the labor movement and wove his plots within their struggles. He poured into his writings all the pains of his life, the fierce hatred of the bourgeoisie that such pains had produced in him and the conviction they had brought to him that world could be made a better place to live in if the exploited would rise up and seize the management of society from the hands of the exploiters.
