gre argument 198题目：
There is a general idea that a translation always fails to preserve some of the qualities that distinguish the original work—i.e., that 'something always gets lost in translation.' Writers, critics, and the general reading public unthinkingly accept this cliché. But this belief is unwarranted: translators are sometimes distinguished authors themselves (1), and some authors may even translate their own works(2). As the translator pointed out in the preface to an English version of Dante's works, the violin and the piano make different sounds, but they can play what is recognizably the same piece of music(3).
提纲：
(1)The fact that some translators are distinguished authors themselves does not guarantee that they could preserve all the qualities of the original work when they are translating some other’s works.
(2)We do not know the quality of the translations done by the same author of the original works, thus the fact cited above could lend little support to the argument.
(3)Although different instruments could play the same piece of music, for certain kind of instrument there will inevitably be some distinctive features which others cannot imitate.
