The most popular leisure activity in Britain is going for a walk. And when joggers (慢跑者) jog, they don ’t run the streets. Every one of them instinctively heads to the park or the river. It is my profound belief that not only do we all need nature, but we all seek nature, whether we know we are doing so or not. But But despite despite despite this, this, our our children children children are are are growing growing growing up up up nature-deprived nature-deprived nature-deprived ((丧失). ).

These days, children are robbed of these ancient ancient freedoms, freedoms, freedoms, due due to to problems problems problems like like like crime, crime, crime, traffic, traffic, traffic, the the the loss loss loss of of of the the the open open open spaces and spaces and odd odd new new perceptions about what is best for children, that is to say, things that can be bought, rather than things that can be found. The truth is to be found elsewhere. A study in the US: families had moved to better housing and and the the the children children children were were were assessed assessed assessed for for for ADHD ADHD —attention attention deficit deficit deficit hyperactivity hyperactivity hyperactivity disorder disorder disorder ((多动症). Those whose accommodation had more natural views showed an improvement of 19%; those who had the same improvement in material surroundings but no nice view improved just 4%. A A study study study in in in Sweden Sweden Sweden indicated indicated indicated that that that kindergarten kindergarten kindergarten children children children who who who could could could play play play in in in a a a natural natural environment environment had had had less less less illness illness illness and and and greater greater greater physical physical physical ability ability ability than than than children children children used used used only only only to to to a a a normal normal playground. playground. A A A US US US study study study suggested suggested suggested that that that when when when a a a school school school gave gave gave children children children access access access to to to a a a natural natural environment, academic levels were raised across the entire school. Another study found that children play differently in a natural environment. In playgrounds, children create a hierarchy (等级) based on physical abilities, with the tough ones taking the lead. But when a grassy area was planted with bushes, the children got much more into fantasy play, and the social hierarchy was now based on imagination and creativity. Most Most bullying bullying bullying ((恃强凌弱) ) is is is found found found in in in schools schools schools where where where there there there is is is a a a tarmac tarmac tarmac ((柏油碎石) playground; the least bullying is in a natural area that the children are encouraged to explore. This reminds me unpleasantly of Sunnyhill School in Streatham, with its harsh tarmac, where I used to hang about in corners fantasising about wildlife. But children are frequently discouraged from involvement with natural spaces, for health and safety reasons, for fear that they might get dirty or that they might cause damage. So, instead, the damage is done to the children themselves: not to their bodies but to their souls. One of the great problems of modern childhood is ADHD, now increasingly and expensively treated treated with with with drugs. drugs. drugs. Y et Y et one one one study study study after after after another another another indicates indicates indicates that that that contact contact contact with with with nature nature nature gives gives gives huge huge benefits to ADHD children. However, we spend money on drugs rather than on green places. The life of old people is measurably better when they have access to nature. The increasing emphasis for the growing population of old people is in quality rather than quantity of years. And study after study finds that a garden is the single most important thing in finding that quality. In wider and more more difficult difficult areas areas of of life, there is is evidence evidence to indicate indicate that that natural surroundings improve all kinds of things. Even problems with crime and aggressive behaviour are reduced when there is contact with the natural world. Dr William Bird, researcher from the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, states in his study, “A natural environment can reduce violent behaviour because its restorative process helps reduce anger and impulsive behaviour.” Wild places need encouraging for this reason, no matter how small their contribution. e W e tend tend tend to to to look look look on on on nature nature nature conservation conservation conservation as as as some some some kind kind kind of of of favour favour favour that that that human human human beings beings beings are are granting to the natural world. The error here is far too deep: not only do humans need nature for themselves, themselves, but but but the the the very very very idea idea idea that that that humanity humanity humanity and and and the the the natural natural natural world world world are are are separable separable separable things things things is is profoundly damaging. Human beings are a species of mammals (哺乳动物). For seven million years they lived on the planet as part of nature. Our ancestral selves miss the natural world and long for contact with non-human life.

2010年12月英语四级真题答案
2010年12月大学英语四级真题答案作文范文:Help Children to Be IndependentThanks to the “family plan” policy, today in China many families have one child. Loving and caring for children is an old Chinese tradition that has remained for thousands of years. But the children are spoilt so much that they have less independence. They rely on their parents in everything. That is bad for a child's growing. Therefore, parents should develop the children's independence instead of doing everything for them.There are some ways to help children to be independent. First of all, you should believe your children can do the things well. Second, give them more chances to practise, when they don't know how to do it, just tell them the way. Third, don't be afraid to see them fail. In the beginning, they may do something bad. But don't worry, just let them try again. They can do the work as well as you if given more time.To be independent is good for the children. A child who is independent will succeed easily in the future.Part ⅡReading Comprehension(Skimming and Scanning)1.A) People instinctively seek nature in different ways.解析:第一段最后一句直接给出关键字profound belief, whether 引导的从句对应答案中的instinctively2.D) Things that are purchased.解析:第二段最后一句,what is best对应题目中的prefer, that is to say 作为暗示直接引出之后的things that can be bought,选择D3.B) More access to nature makes children less likely to fall ill.解析:题干中有关瑞典研究,定位到第四段第一句,结合语义,不难得出B的正确答案4.D) are less likely to be involved in bullying解析:A选项具有干扰性,第三段结尾给出自然熏陶能够提高学生学科水平的线索,但考虑到快速阅读题的传统,即题目顺序对应文章顺序,所以应该定位到第四段之后的内容,即大段有关bullying的段落,得出答案D。

2010年12月英语四级真题及答案(含解析)
2010年12月英语四级真题答案解析【作文范文】范文1:Today in China, many families have only one child. So the children usually doted upon by all family members. Gradually some of them get used to depending on their parents and family members, as a result they lack the ability to face their lives by themselves.There are some ways to help children to be independent. First, the child should have a chance to see the world around him individually to understand that there are various people and competitions in their lives, and learn to find his right position in the society only by individual efforts. Second, it is impossible to ask a child not to depend on parents at once.The parents may give the child enough help and space to make him feel comfortable. A child needs help from their families. Because without any help, the child may lose his faith. Thirdly, parents can help their children make their own decisions, which can challenge his ability to deal with problems. A child should be praised when he is successful or encouraged when he fails.To be independent is vital for the children, because no parents can go with their children for the whole life. Only an independent person can live and enjoy a full and meaningful life.范文2:Nowadays, more and more parents indulge their children too much, showing too much love to them. The parents get used to make an arrangement of everything for their children. As result, many adult children will not deal with things by themselves but depend on their parents strongly.How should parents help children to be independent? On the one hand, parents should try to tell the children the importance of independence at an early age. If the children have no awareness early, how can we expect them to achieve independence later. On the other hand, let the children always have a try by themselves before asking for help. Let them know that independent thinking is an absolute necessity in their life.Helping children towards independence will always be our businesses.【快速阅读】(1)选A: People instinltively seek nature in different ways.解析:问题是作者的profound belief,第一段的最后一句给出了答案,whether we know we are doing so or not (不管我们知道与否)相当于句中的instinctively(本能地).(2)选D: Things that are purchased.解析:文中第二段最后一句给出了答案,“odd new perceptions about what is best for child ren, that is to say, things that can be bought”,奇怪的新观念,什么对孩子最好,能买到的东西。

过去由于经济落后,食品种类有限,数量不足,人们仅仅满足于吃得饱。
如今中国经济快速发展,食品不仅更多丰富多样,质量也大幅提高。
随着生活水平不断提升,人们对饮食的要求越来越高,更加注重吃的营养。
因此目前市场上推出的低脂、低糖、有机食品受到人们的普遍欢迎。
Since the reform and opening-up, Chinese diet has undergone significant changes.In the past when the economy was backward, food was so short in both kinds and amount that people were only concerned about whether they had enough to eat. Today, as the Chinese economy develops rapidly, food is not only more diverse but also much better in quality. With the improvement of living conditions, people have higher demand for food, paying more attention to foodnutrition.Therefore,low-fat,low-sugar and organic foods that are launched into the market enjoy great popularity among people.翻译2中国政府十分重视人民的健康饮食。
通过大力提倡健康饮食,人们对合理营养增进健康的重要性有了更加深刻的认识。

the routine.Sit under a tree, look at water, feel refreshed, ever so slightly renewed.Drink: The best way to enjoy the natural world is by yourself;the second best way is in company.Take a drink outside with a good person, a good gathering: talk with the sun and the wind with birdsong for background.Learn: Expand your boundaries.Learn five species of bird, five butterflies, five trees, five bird songs.That way, you see and hear more: and your mind responds gratefully to the greater amount of wildness in your life.Travel: The places you always wanted to visit: by the seaside, in the country, in the hills.Take a weekend break, a day-trip, get out there and do it: for the scenery, for the way through the woods, for the birds, for the bees.Go somewhere special and bring specialness home.It lasts forever, after all.注意:此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。

翻译练习题一:唐装话题材料:唐朝是中国古代最繁荣、兴旺、灿烂、光荣的时期。
因此,中国人穿的传统服装就被称为“唐装(Tang suit)”。
实际上,“唐装”并不是唐朝的服装。
它的起源可以追溯到清朝,由马褂(Chinese jacket)演变而来。
唐装的颜色多种多样,最常见的是红色、深蓝色、金色和黑色。
唐装上一种常见的设计是使用汉字来表达好运和祝福。
今天,仍然有很多人会在传统的节日里穿唐装。
参考译文:The Tang Dynasty was the most thriving,prosperous, splendid and glorious period in ancientChina.As a result, the traditional clothing worn bythe Chinese is called “Tang suit”.Actually, "Tang suit”is not the clothing of the Tang Dynasty.Its origin canbe traced back to the Qing Dynasty, evolving from Chinese jacket.Tang suit is made in differentcolors, the most common are red, dark blue, gold and black.One common design is the usage ofChinese characters to convey good luck and wishes.Today,there are still many people whowould wear Tang suit during traditional festivals.1.唐朝是中国古代最繁荣、兴旺、灿烂、光荣的时期:该句的翻译重点是几个形容词的翻译,因此,考生应注意平时形容词的积累。

[2010四级] 12月四级翻译题精选练习(26)
1. A dog has won a German government award ________________ (因协助警方劝阻一名妇女自杀).
2. The manager points out _______________ (我们的工作进展令人满意).
3. _________________ (这栋房子需要现代化):it has no bathroom or electricity.
4. ________________(飞机什么时候起飞)has not been announced.
5.His idea is ________________(应该立即执行计划).
参考答案+解析:
1. for helping police persuade a woman not to commit suicide
解析:本句考查的是句子逻辑关系。
根据意思可知,句子前半句是果,后半句是因。
“一只狗因为协助警方阻止了一名妇女的自杀而获德国政府奖项”。
英语通常把表示目的、假设、原因、让步等内容放在句子的后部,因此这句话可以由because,for来引导。
“自杀”有一个固定短语commit suicide,“劝阻”要用强调结果成功的persuade。
2. that our work is progressing satisfactorily
解析:本题考查词性的转译,即:将原汉语句子中的动词“令人满意”转移成英语的副词satisfactorily。
这种词性转换是翻译常用技巧,适当的转换可使译文通顺,符合英文表达习惯。
另外,句子需填入部分在全句中充当宾语从句,
因而不能漏译that。
3. This house needs modernizing
解析:本题同样考查汉英词性转换技巧。
全句意为:这栋房子既没有浴室也没有电,(因而)需要现代化。
“现代化”在汉语里是一个名词,在这个句子中实际上指的是“房子”需要配置现代化设备,它的含义不等同于modernization,“配备现代化设施”可以用 modernizing来表示。
英语里很多以-ing结尾的动词表示该动作的过程,通常与need连用,如:These clothes need washing. 本题是从名词到动词的转换。
4. When the plane is to take off
解析:本题考查的是以连接副词when引导的主语从句的翻译。
中文意思是:飞机什么时候起飞还没有公布。
这样的主语从句一般可以采用顺序法翻译。
顺序法同样也适用于以that,what,whatever,who,whoever,where,how,why
等引导的主语从句。
如:认识他的人都信任他。
(Who knows him will believe him.)本题的另一个考点是:“什么时候起飞”是一个将来时态,可以用be to 来表达。
5. that the plan should be carried out immediately
解析:本题综合考查了表语从句、无主语翻译以及惯用搭配。
首先,His idea is前半部分是一个完整的主谓结构,句子需填入部分在全句中充当表语;其次,“应该立即执行计划”中“计划”是被用来执行的,但是题干中并没有提到谁会来执行这个计划。
因此,在主语没有出现的情况下,可以采用被动译法。
“执行计划”在英语里可以用carry out the plan,perform the plan,implement the plan来表示。
