I.熟詞生義

1.callingn.事業(yè)

His greatest calling was as the designer of his ownmyth.他最偉大的事業(yè)是成為 “卡爾·拉格斐”這個(gè)神話的締造者。

2.phenomenonn.非凡的人（或事物）background of his parents.Itisinarguablethat hisnamehasbeeninlightsfromtheveryearliestmomentsofhisfashioncareer.

Those who wanted to dismiss Lagerfeld referred to him as a “styliste”:a designer who creates his looks by changing what already exists,as opposed to inventing anything new.But he rejected the idea of fashion-as-art,and the designer-as-torturedgenius.His goal was more opportunistic.

“Iwouldliketobeaone-manmultinationalfashionphenomenon,”heoncesaid.——FromVogue

“Iwould like to be a one-manmultinational fashion phenomenon,” he once said.他曾經(jīng)說道：“我要成為獨(dú)領(lǐng)全球時(shí)尚風(fēng)向的人。”

Ⅱ.寫作推薦

“It is inarguable that...”……是無可爭辯的。

It is inarguable that his name has been in lights from the very earliest moments of his fashion career.有一點(diǎn)是無可爭辯的：他的名字從他的時(shí)尚生涯最開始的時(shí)刻起就一直是光芒四射的。

【點(diǎn)石成金】句中的inarguable是由動(dòng)詞argue加詞后綴-able后，再加上否定的詞前綴in-構(gòu)成的。后綴-able表示“能”的意思，如adjustable“可調(diào)節(jié)的”、respectable“可敬的”，以及adaptable“可適應(yīng)的”。 詞前綴 in-表示“不；否定”的意思，如 incorrect“不正確的”、inability“無能”，以及inaccurate“不準(zhǔn)確的”。句中的It充當(dāng)?shù)氖切问街髡Z，代替的是that引導(dǎo)的主語從句。

【仿寫】卡爾·拉格斐是20和21世紀(jì)最高產(chǎn)的設(shè)計(jì)師，這一點(diǎn)是無可爭辯的。

參考譯文

時(shí)尚界“愷撒大帝”去世，享年85歲

卡爾·拉格斐，這位20和21世紀(jì)最高產(chǎn)的設(shè)計(jì)師，這個(gè)用個(gè)人事業(yè)定義了現(xiàn)代奢侈品時(shí)尚行業(yè)的男人，本周二于巴黎去世。

“他比我認(rèn)識的任何人都更能代表時(shí)尚的靈魂：焦躁不安、目光前瞻，并且極度關(guān)注我們不斷變化的文化。”美國Vogue雜志主編安娜·溫圖爾在2015年英國時(shí)尚大獎(jiǎng)上向卡爾·拉格斐頒發(fā) “杰出成就獎(jiǎng)”時(shí)這樣評價(jià)道。

拉格斐先生是當(dāng)之無愧的 “時(shí)尚鬼才”。他于

1983年和1965年起，分別擔(dān)任香奈兒和芬迪的創(chuàng)意總監(jiān)，同時(shí)還是自己品牌的創(chuàng)始人。在他80歲之后，當(dāng)大多數(shù)同齡人都已退休，在游艇或鄉(xiāng)間莊園安度晚年時(shí)，他仍保持每年平均設(shè)計(jì)14個(gè)新系列的產(chǎn)品，其范圍涵蓋了高級定制到高街服裝，其中還不包括合作系列和特別項(xiàng)目。

他最偉大的事業(yè)是成為“卡爾·拉格斐”這個(gè)神話的締造者。他將“夸張而怪誕”作為自己的定義：戴著墨鏡，梳著搽粉的馬尾辮，身著黑色牛仔褲戴著露指手套，衣領(lǐng)因上漿而筆挺，佩戴克羅心飾品，還迷戀著喝健怡可樂。以此形象示人的他，名聲享譽(yù)全球的同時(shí)，也招來了不少爭議。2014年，價(jià)值 200美元的“芭比卡爾”由他和玩具制造商美泰聯(lián)合設(shè)計(jì)推出，不到一小時(shí)就銷售一空。

卡爾·拉格斐1933年9月10日出生于德國漢堡。不過，正如他的同齡人阿澤丁·阿拉伊亞習(xí)慣做的那樣，拉格斐經(jīng)常謊稱自己的年齡、他父母的職業(yè)和背景。但有一點(diǎn)是無可爭辯的：他的名字從他的時(shí)尚生涯最開始的時(shí)刻起就一直是光芒四射的。

那些想趕拉格斐下臺(tái)的人稱他僅僅是位“服裝設(shè)計(jì)師”：那類不創(chuàng)造新元素，只通過改造現(xiàn)存元素來設(shè)計(jì)造型的設(shè)計(jì)師。但拉格斐本人拒絕接受“時(shí)尚即藝術(shù)和設(shè)計(jì)師是飽受折磨的天才”這樣的理念。他的目標(biāo)中，機(jī)會(huì)主義的成分更多。

他曾經(jīng)說道：“我要成為獨(dú)領(lǐng)全球時(shí)尚風(fēng)向的人?！?/p>
