（1）at the direction of 表示在某某的指示下，比如在三个代表的指导下就可以说at the direction of "three represents" ideology...


(B) 结构是Any art theft（ committed at the direction of a single individual ）results in a pattern （of works taken and works left alone） that defies rational analysis. 意思是在单个人指示下进行的盗窃行为产生了一种难以进行理性分析的模式。这种模式是指偷走的艺术品和留下的艺术品的模式。就是说那一类的艺术品比较容易被偷，那一类不容易被偷。

(1)任何艺术品盗贼，通过对偷盗作品的分析，可被归类为either向着(at the direction of )某一位知名的艺术家or向着某一类知名的艺术家。这句话的意思是假设博物馆里陈设印象派作家的作品有凡高，莫奈，和赛尚的。有的小偷只偷赛尚的作品，譬如说赛尚早期的静物写生，有的小偷不但偷塞尚的作品，还对莫奈德河潭感兴趣。

(2)left alone =留下。艺术品盗贼专偷(committed at the direction of)某一艺术家的作品导致了一些作批品被偷走同时留下的作品藐视理性的分析。一般来说，从盗贼偷走艺术品的模式能够分析得出这个小偷是为了钱—一般专偷市场价值高的，还是为了个人还好。但是从这个小偷留下的作品来看既看不出是为了前，也看不出他偏爱那一位艺术家。

横断面(cross section of) pig teeth found in an excavated stone age trash pit(坑)显示一条条(bands) remarkably constant width expect (tat电子般的笔误) the band deposited last, (which was invariably that the band deposited last,  电子般的笔误), 明显是半透明的，但是只有正常宽度的一半。
