自考英语(二)教材翻译

自考英语(二)课文翻译Unit One What Is a Decision ?何为决策 ?A decision is a choice made from among alternative courses of action that are available. The purpose of making a decision is to establish and achieve organizational goals and objectives. The reason for making a decision is that a problem exists, goals or objectives are wrong, or something is standing in the way of accomplishing them.决策是一种选择,来自可以获得的、任择其一的行动步骤。
作决策的意图是要确立和实现机构的目标和目的。
作决策的原因是有问题存在、目标和目的不正确、或者有某种东西妨碍目标或目的的实现。
Thus the decision-making process is fundamental to management. Almost everything a manager does involves decisions, indeed, some suggest that the management process is decision making. Although managers cannot predict the future, many of their decisions require that they consider possible future events. Often managers must make a best guess at what the future will be and try to leave as little as possible to chance, but since uncertainty is always there, risk accompanies decisions . Sometimes the consequence s of a poor decision are slight; at other times they are serious.因此,作决策的过程对管理人员来说至关重要。

国考自考英语二Unit 6 参考译文

Unit 6 参考译文对话范例请朗读下面的对话,注意说话人表达赞成或者不赞成的方式。
史蒂夫:澳大利亚英语和英国英语很相似,你同意吗?爱丽丝:我不确定是否十分赞成。
史蒂夫:哦,那你有什么经验吗?爱丽丝:我想说这两种语言差异很大。
的确,澳大利亚人讲英语,但是即便是英国人和美国人都认为澳大利亚人的口音很难听懂。
史蒂夫:嗯,在这一点上你可能说得有道理,但是并不是所有的澳大利亚人讲英语口音都很重啊.爱丽丝:真的吗?史蒂夫:是的,一般来讲,他们的教育程度越高,他们讲英语的澳大利亚口音就越不明显。
爱丽丝:是的,你说得太对了。
Text A读前问题:1.回忆并描述过去你父母是如何给你分配零花钱,你又是怎么花的。
2.家长给孩子零花钱的方式对于孩子的财务管理能力有什么影响?教会孩子明智地使用零花钱在校的孩子们需要零花钱买吃的、文具以及车票。
父母以不同的方式给孩子零花钱,有些家长在周一或者月初一次性给孩子零花钱,而有些家长则喜欢每天给零花钱。
一方面,家长给零花钱的方式会影响到孩子花钱或者攒钱的方式。
另一方面,孩子们花钱的.习惯也会影响到家长给零花钱的方式。
每天都给的零花钱有时候称为“饭钱”,下午学校有活动的话,孩子们通常会在课间休息或者午餐的时候用这钱买食物,这样他们学会了怎么花少量的钱。
数量有限,他们得控制花销。
有些家长选择这种方式给孩子零花钱,就是不想让孩子花太多钱,希望一段时间之后,能够放心把更多的零花钱交给孩子。
日结工资的家长由于经济紧张也许也会选择这种方式。
每天给零花钱的做法实际上是要求家长,而不是孩子养成谨慎花钱的习惯。
孩子知道第二天还能得到一笔钱,因而会花光每一分钱,暴食垃圾食品。
这样一来,孩子在花钱方面就会变得目光短浅了,可能会认为钱就是用来消费的。
有些孩子花钱入不敷出了,就从兄弟姐妹或者同学那里借钱花,放纵自己,之后又会借钱还债。
养成了这种借钱的习惯,他们就会依赖别人解决自己的种种问题,这样定量给零花钱的目的就彻底落空了。

Let us express our warmly welcome to all the friends home and abroad to be present at the meeting. Dalian is one of the cities with a severe water shortage problem. Since 1954, Dalian has made great contribution to the ensurance of the safe water supply to the city. For twice Dalian has been conferred honorable awards on modal city of water conservation by the state. But compared with the advanced cities home and abroad, we still have a long way to go. This workshop provides us with an excellent opportunity to modestly learn their advanced experiences, carefully compare andfind our weak points and thus promote our work. The People’s Government of Dalian has listed the water problem as one of the priorities Of urban development outline/sketch and we have been taking effective measures to further improve the city’s water conservation. While building water conservancy projects, the city government proposed to stick to the policy of “broaden sources of income and reduce expenditure.”we’ll not in the slightest degree, neglect the work of water conservation in the mitigatory situation of water supply for the city, and strive for building Dalian into a city of water conservation.This international workshop has great significance to promote our city’s water conservation work.I hope the organizing department and the units concerned will do the service work well and enthusiastically and the seminar will attain the result as expected.Finally, I wish the International Urban Water Conservation Workshop a complete success.

Here please allow me on behalf of the People’s Government of Liaoning Province to extend our warmest welcome to the America friends from afar, all the representatives, friends and comrades. At the same time, we extend our cordial greetings to the smooth opening of this seminar. We are grateful to the great support and help of the American Embassy in China, the American General Consulate in Shengyang.The development of modern civilization makes the earth on which the human beings depend for existence change a lot. The fantastic advance of science and technology and the great increase of social productive forces make the world’s economic scale unprecedentedly inflate. The rapid growth of population, the excessive exploiting and consumption of natural resources, large amount of discharge of the polluted material result in the worldwide deficiency of resources, pollution of the environment and ecological deterioration. Like all the nations in the world, Liaoning is also facing severe challenges of the ecological deterioration: the atmosphere pollution is higher than the required standard; the crisis of water resource is serious;regional environment is worsened; some parts of the sea waters are heavily polluted.Liaoning Province is rich in natural resources. It’s the heavy industrial base of our country and plays an important role in the development of the national economy in China. In geography, Liaoning is a key link between the Northeast Economic zone and the Bohai Sea Rim Economic Zone. It faces Bohai sea, Huanghai sea, and links up with Korea by Yalu River. To the southeast, it faces Japan across the sea and borders on the east, north and west with Jilin, Inner-Mongolia and Hebei Province and is close to Russia. It is the forefront of the Eurasian Rail Bridge, and an important passageway for the foreign trade and international communication in the northeast of China. There is only one earth. Whether Liaoning can control the pollution of the environment or not, not only concerns the living conditions of the people of Liaoning, but also has an important influence on the countries and districts around it.According to the conditions of our province, the People’s Government of Liaoning chooses a road of vitalizing the province by science and technology and sustainable development on the problem of economic development and environmental protection. Since the Third Session of the Eleventh Congress of the Communist Party Central Committee, we’ve handled properly the relation between economic development and the environmental protection, population and the resources. We’ve made notable success in working for the coordinating development of economy and society. We’ve realized in Liaoning province self-supply of grains, curbed the trend of steep rise of population, established and improved legislative and legal system, increased scientific investment on the environmental Protection, strengthened the public’s awareness of environmental protection and improved the environment that we live on.But we should be acutely aware that in Liaoning, a lot of new problems have arisen, and many severe challenges must be faced while remarkable successes have been made in the environmental protection. Because of the long-term bounding of planning economy, the big-and-medium-sized state enterprises in our province are slow in the transition of mechanism, the industrial equipment is backward, the competitive awareness for market economy is weak, economic benefit is lower, the economic development is not suited to the sustaining force of the environmental resource. And tackling of pollution and the comprehensive use of energy and resources lag behind. All this requires us to draw lessons from the past, increase the investment, make more effort to study intensively, make research and try our best to solve the problems. We have to strengthen the exchange and cooperation with the advanced foreign countries, make use of the advanced experience to do well in the environmental protection by a variety of forms and ways. Not long ago, at the Beijing Sino-US Seminar of Environment and Development, Premier of the State Council, Li Peng raised four principles to strengthen the Sino-America cooperation in the environmental protection. They are: “respect each other and seek the common ground while putting aside difference; enjoy equality and mutual benefits and complement each other’s advantages; learn each other’s experiences and expand the cooperation; stand from the present and look forward to the future.”Accordingly, we’ll take the opportunity of this seminar, strengthen the exchange and cooperation with America in the environmental development, keep closer contact with each other and solve every urgent problem in this field.Both China and America are great powers of environment and energy resources; and have responsibility for the survival and development of human beings. So strengthening our communication and cooperation in environmental development is not only in keeping with the basic benefit of our two countries, but also contributes to the sustainable development of the world.I hope wholeheartedly every representative, every guest can have two peoples, promote thecommunication with America, achieve the desired aim of the seminar and achieve greater success in the cooperation of our environmental development.Lastly, I wish complete success to the Seminar of the Sino-US Environmental Protection and Economic Development in 1997.Unit Eleven Habitation and SustainabilityLesson TwoA Speech by the ExecutiveMayor of the Dalian Municipal Government at the Celebration Ceremony of the UN World Habitat DayHonorable guests, Ladies and gentlemen:Today is the World Habitat Day established by the United Nations. The theme of this year’s World Habitat Day is “Cities for All”. We are very happy to be the host city for the celebration activities of this year’s Habitat Day, and we warmly welcome you here. We noticed that, within less than four years since the Istanbul Conference, the UNCHS has made urbanization issues the theme of World Habitat Day three times. This is not only because urbanization issues are affecting and obstructing the economic development of various regions, but also because they are producing common problems that must be solved in order to achieve the sustainability that mankind is seeking for. After 2000, half of the population is now living in cities, the other half will also live on cities.Lots of problems pertaining to the sustainable development of the cities will be increasingly serious, such as residence and employment, energy and transportation, poverty and crime, etc…At this time, all cities in the world are studying and seeking new approaches to optimizing the environment.At one hundred years old, Dalian is a young city. In the early 1990’s, with the rapid development of the urban economy, Dalian faced a series of problems that cities in developing countries usually encounter, such as the immense pressure of the growing population, many in-debt projects for basic facilities, acute housing shortages, the low quality of the environment and so on. In view of the above, the municipal government, after studying and proving in many ways, worked out a developmental plan that concurs with the actual situation of Dalian. From 1993 to 1998, a high tide of urban construction emerged in Dalian and the appearance of Dalian changed. During these six years, Dalian was conferred the titles of National Sanitary City, one of the Ten Best Cities Comprehensively Improving the Urban Environment, National Outstanding Tourist City, etc.. Frankly speaking, these achievements are owed to the great opportunities offered by the reform and open-door policy and the municipal government’s urban construction principles established on the basis of actual situations and their strategy of sustainable development.1. The Elaboration of the design and planning, provided scientific basis and blueprints for urban construction.Urban planning is the basis and key for urban construction and development. In this respect, Dalian grasped the following five points and therefore it achieved success.(1) The formulation of the guiding principle “seeking the best instead of the largest”. At the beginning of 1992, looking forward to the future development of Dalian, the municipalgovernment made an all-round analysis and study of Dalian’s history, present situation, strong points for development,obstructing conditions and the experiences and lessons in the process of urban development both at home and abroad. We realized that Dalian, ringed on three sides by water, had limited room for development. Therefore, the urban development would not large, and the expansion of the urban scale was impractical. We worked out the principle, “seeking the best instead of the largest”, and made it our guiding principle for urban planning, construction and administration. To ensure the implementation of this principle, the municipal government adopted three measures: the control of the urban population size and upgrading of the population quality; The control of the infrastructure scale and improvement of the architectural standard; and the adjustment of the industrial structure and the raising of the enterprising revenue.(2) The adjustment of urban planning and distribution, demolition and removal of old buildings and renovation of the industrial enterprises in the center of the city. Historically, the planning of the centre district of Dalian was very irrational. The residential areas and the industrial districts were mixed together. The pollution is also serious in Dalian. Beginning in 1994, the government took advantage of the high tide of real estate development by attracting foreign capital and utilizing differences in land values. This capital was used to remove and renovate medium and small sized enterprises and to greatly reduce the pollutants which were located in the city center. The vacated lands were used for developing finance, tourism and new residential quarters, and for increasing the number of the public lawns in order to create more spaces for the recreation and leisure of the residents. This made urban planning and distribution more scientific and rational, the allocation of land resource was also optimized. In adjusting our planning and distribution, we also adhered to a principle of unified design for the construction of small rural towns and the urban center district. Therefore, the urbanization level of the small towns has apparently improved. (3) Special attention to the design of unique urban features and the formation of a distinguishing urban style. In recent years, we have paid special attention to the exploration and practice of Dalian’s unique features and style. We insist on the combination of architectural and natural beauty. The buildings are required to be multistoried, different in height and well-arranged. The appearances of the building are mainly European in style with various shapes. By planning and designing on the basis of advanced landscape art both at home and abroad, we established modern and Western-style lawns which are broad and bright. This unique garden style took shape by combining green lawns,azure sky and blue ocean. At the same time, we made great efforts to protect the ancient buildings and maintained all the important ones. The buildings with modern styles and features were completed one after another and the green lawns were also upgraded. (4) Establishment of a consciousness for the best and constant improvements of standards in design and construction. For many years, we have been insisting on the opening of the design and planning markets and on the introduction of advanced ideas of design and planning both from home and abroad. The architectural designs of dozens of large-sale construction projects were landed through international bidding, such as the planning of the central part of the Dalian Development Zone, the Lehua New Residential Quarter, the Xinghai Convention Centre and so on. At the same time, strict approval procedures were set up for the planning and unit construction designs. Every building was constructed elaborately.(5) The adoption of harsh measures for management and regulation to ensure the fulfillment of general urban ideas in the planning and designs. For the projects under construction, we strictly stipulated that the projects and environmental protection facilities must be designed, constructed,and delivered for use at the same time. The short-term goal of going for immediate benefits which sacrificed long-term environmental benefits, was therefore resolutely rectified.2. Strengthening the construction of projects for basic facilities in accordance with the idea of thinking ahead moderately.In order to build the framework quickly for the modern city, the Dalian municipal government made greater efforts to construct the projects for basic facilities. In recent years, we expanded and rebuilt the international airport and the seaport. The Dayaowan Container Wharf, jointly invested with Singapore Harbor Bureau, has been Completed and put to use. The project for rebuilding the Dalian Railway Station is under construction. The train ferry from Dalian to Yantai has been listed as the key national project. With these projects, the construction of the municipal infrastructure found a historic breakthrough.Public utilities are important to the national economy and the people’s livelihood. They are the all important support system of the city. In 1993, we initiated the project of channeling water into the city for the purpose of satisfying the needs of production and daily life; we built a new gas plant; we replaced 2078 old buses and we now have 18.8 buses for every ten thousand people. The heat-supplying area of the city reached 98%, with 80% being central heating. All telephones in the city were program controlled.The public welfare projects have also had a historic breakthrough. We successively set up nearly 100 cultural, sports and health facilities including a forest zoo, museums, post office mansions, hospitals, etc.. Many shopping centers and luxurious hotels were completed and have been put to use. These projects further perfected the urban functioning of Dalian and improved the urban standards.3. Persisting in the human centered principle and comprehensively administering the urban environment.In the evaluation of urban quality in the world, it has become a common standard to improve the environment and to establish safe, beautiful and healthy residential quarters. We have made great efforts in this area.First, we have been trying hard to improve citizens’housing conditions. The area of dwelling structures in the city proper completed from 1993 to 1998 equals 15 million square meters, among which the area of the “Habitat Project”dwelling houses equals 2.25 million square meters. Twenty-two pieces of low-lying land and twenty-four shanty towns have been renovated. From 1993 to 1998, half of the 2 million residents of the city moved into new houses. The per capita area of dwelling houses in the city increased from 9.6 square meters in 1992 to 12.7 square meters in 1998. we developed the “Model Human Settlements”activity in two successive years. A batch of residential quarters emerged from this and they are better in design and quality. Up to the present, half of the 175 residential quarters of the whole city were listed as the national, provincial or municipal best demonstration residential quarters.Second, we have been trying our best to raise the level of urban afforestation and beautification. In 1993, the Dalian municipal government put out a call to “work out for three years to afforest the majority of Dalian”. A great upsurge of afforesting and beautifying Dalian was set off. Within only six years, all parks in the city proper were reformed, the Sight-proof solid walls were removed, and the public lawns were expanded. We also built and renovated 180 parks central lawns. The area of newly-built public lawns account for 8.56 million square meters. At present, the per capita area of public lawns has reached 7.8 square meters, and green coverage accounts for more than 40% of the total urban area. In recent years, we also finished the renovation of all squares in。
