请将下面这段话翻译成英文:
胖子喜欢社交。
即使你脾气有些古怪,脸上有粉刺,他们也会喜欢你。
在你没能写出那本伟大的美国小说时,他们会为你找到一个很好的理由。
他们同你一起借酒浇愁。
他们凑钱买东西时会把你的名字也写上。
他们会帮你摆脱困境。
胖子喜欢闲聊、傻乐、狂笑、狂蹦乱跳、转来转去,爱传小道消息。
他们慷慨,大方,豪爽。
他们贪吃,漂亮,伟大。
你心情不好时需要温柔和轻松,而不是强劲和持重。
胖子懂得这个道理。
他们肚量大,容得下你。
参考译文
Fat people are convivial. They will like you even if you're irregular and have acne. They will come up with a good reason why you never wrote the great American novel. They will cry in your beer with you. They will put your name in the pot. They will let you off the hook. Fat people will gab, giggle, guffaw, gallumph, gyrate and gossip. They are generous, giving and gallant. They are gluttonous and goodly and great. What you want when you're down is soft and jiggly, not muscled and stable. Fat people know this. Fat people have plenty of room. Fat people will take you in.
请将下面这段话翻译成英文:
敲击键盘的声音也许是现代社会的一种白色噪音,但其实,他们所透露出的信息比疏忽的打字者意识到的要更多。
通过简单分析击键声音的录音,计算机专家们现在就能够准确无误的解析出一篇通过键盘输入的文字的脚本,甚至包括输入的密码。
以其他计算机比起来,这个过程简单很多,仅仅需要一个便宜的麦克风和一台电脑。
参考译文
Clattering keyboards may seem the white noise of the modern age, but they betray more information than unwary typists realize. Simply by analyzing audio recordings of keyboard clatter, computer scientists can now reconstruct an accurate transcript of what was typed—including passwords. And in contrast with many types of computer espionage, the process is simple, requiring only a cheap microphone and a desktop computer.
请将下面这段话翻译成英文:
来自利物浦大学的科学家、心理学家和英文教授发现,阅读莎士比亚及其他古典作家的作品对心智发展大有裨益。
这些作品能够抓住读者的注意力,引发读者的自我反思。
研究还发现,阅读书籍,尤其是诗歌,可以增加与“自传体记忆”有关的大脑右半球的活动频率,有助于读者根据阅读内容对个人经历进行反思和重新评价。
学者们表示,这意味着阅读古典作品比阅读自助类书籍更有帮助。
参考译文
Scientists, psychologists and English academics at Liverpool
University have found that reading the works of Shakespeare and other classical writers has a beneficial effect on the mind, catches the reader’s attention and triggers moments of self-reflection. The research also found that reading poetry, in particular, increases activity in the right hemisphere of the brain, an area concerned with “autobiographical memory”, helping the reader to reflect on and reappraise their own experiences in light of what they have read. The academics said this meant the classics were more useful than self-help books.
请将下面这段话翻译成英文:
邓小平同志曾说:“社会主义财富属于人民,社会主义的致富是全民共同致富。
”构建和谐社会,就是要把民生问题作为重中之重,让广大人民群众有活干,有学上,有饭吃,有衣穿,有屋住,病有医,老有养,生活幸福,都过上好日子。
自此,在就业、教育、收入分配、医疗、养老、住房等领域,一大批关注民生的实事工程接连开工,一件件事关百姓冷暖的民生大事让各族群众喜笑颜开。

请将下面这段话翻译成英文:
如今,中国正步入老龄化社会,因此独生子女一代面临着巨大的工作和生活压力。
中国政府开始适当调整计划生育政策,允许一些家庭在特殊情况下生育二胎。
但调查显示,很多夫妻迫于不断加重的经济压力,放弃生育二胎。
因此,要从根本上解决老龄化的问题不能依靠出生率的上升,最有效的办法是建立有效的社会保障制度。
参考译文
Nowadays, China is stepping into the aging society. Therefore, the only-child generation is facing enormous pressure both from work and life. The Chinese government has begun to adjust the familyplanning policy and allows some families to have a second child under certain circumstances. However, the survey shows thatsome couples abandon to have a second child due to the increasing financial burden. Thus, in order to solve the aging problem,the basic thing is not relying on the increase of birth rate. The best solution is to establish an effective social security system.

老龄化社会(an aging society)是指老年人口占总人口达到或超过一定的比例的人口结构模型。
按照联合国的传统标准是一个地区60岁以上老人达到总人口的10%,新标准是65岁老人占总人口的7%,即该地区视为进入老龄化社会。
老龄化的加速对经济社会都将产生巨大的压力。
2009年10月26日,中国传统节日重阳节(the Double Ninth Festival)到来之际,中国正式启动了一项应对人口老龄化战略研究,以积极应对持续加剧的人口老龄化危机。
参考译文
An aging society refers to a population structure model in which aging population reaches or exceeds a certain proportion. The region is regarded as entering an aging society according to the UN’s traditional standard that an area’s old people over 60 years old takes up 10% of the total population, while the new standard is old people over 65 years old takes up 7% of the total population. The acceleration of aging will bring enormous pressure to both economy and society. On October 26, 2009 when the Double Ninth Festival, the traditional Chinese festival, came, China formally launched a strategic research on coping with aging of population to deal with increasingly intensifying population aging crisis.
请将下面这段话翻译成英文:
唐朝时期,人们就在昌南建造窑坊(kiln),烧制出一种青白瓷(bluish white porcelain)。
青白瓷色彩晶莹,有“人造玉器”的美称,因而远近闻名,并大量出口欧洲。
当时,欧洲人还不会制造瓷器,因此中国
特别是昌南镇的瓷器很受欢迎。
在欧洲,昌南镇瓷器是备受珍爱的贵重物品,人们以能获得一件昌南镇瓷器为荣。
因此,欧洲人就以“昌南”作为瓷器和生产瓷器的“中国”的代称。
久而久之,欧洲人就把昌南的本意忘却了,只记得它是“瓷器”,即“中国”了。

The bluishwhite porcelain was glittering and had thereputation of artificial jade, so it became famoushome and abroad and was exported to Europe inlarge amount.

请将下面这段话翻译成英文:
人类之间为了钻石而相互残杀;国家之间为了石油而发动战争。
但如果没有水,这世界上最珍贵的东西将一文不值。
淡水是维持生命的必需品,无可替代。
水,尽管几乎无法估价,却是世界上最贵重的东西。
自然规律决定了水的供给是有限的。
但随着世界人口的增加和
生活水平的提高,人类对水的需求量增加的趋势是不可避免的。
家庭、工厂和办公场所正在消耗越来越多的水,但是这个星球对于食物(和生产庄家和肉类过程中使用的水)日益增长的需求才是最忧心的问题。
参考译文
People kill each other over diamonds; countries go to war over oil. But the world’s most expensive commodities are worth nothing in the absence of water. Fresh water is essential for life, with no substitute. Although mostly unpriced, it is the most valuable stuff in the world. Nature has decreed that the supply of water is fixed. Meanwhile demand rises inexorably as the world’s population increases and enriches itself. Homes, factories and offices are sucking up ever more. But it is the planet’s growing need for food (and the water involved in producing crops and meat) that matters most.
请将下面这段话翻译成英文:
中国通过了第一部物权法,下令对北京的几百座四合院进行保护。
然而,批评家们指出,所谓“保存”常常只是拆掉老房子,然后依照传统样式盖一座新的来代替。
马岩松曾经说过:“现在的做法就是在假造古董,这不好。
胡同吸引了很多旅游者,但这里贫困的老住户要么就像主题公园里的演员,要么就被踢出去,以便富人们可以购买这些房子。
老北京的精神正在消亡。
”
参考译文
China has passed the first property law, ordering to protect Beijing’s hundreds of courtyards. But critics say, so-called “conservation”just means knocking down an old building and replacing it with a structure in a traditional style. For this, Ma Yansong’s opinion is “The way is just to build fake antiques, it is not nice. These hutongs attract many tourists. The poor, old residents are either like actors in a theme park or they are kicked out so that the rich can buy these houses. The spirits of old Beijing are now dying away.”
请将下面这段话翻译成英文:
污染已成为问题,因为在当今人口越来越多,社会越来越工业化的世界上,人类正在污染他们居住的环境。
许多科学家认为人类最大的错误是把发展和进步等同起来。
现在人们以怀疑的态度看待“发展性”的产业,因为它们的副作用会破坏环境,破坏各种生命之间的关系。
人口的增长导致对世界上有限的空气、水和土地的需求不断增长。
伴随着人口增长的是越来越多的人渴望更高的生活水平。
于是对电、水和商品的更大需求必然造成有更多的废物要处理。
这个问题已经引起人们对生物及其环境的日益关注。
许多人认为,人类没有尽快地解决这一问题,却只顾谋求私利,以致于到了无可挽救的地步以后才充分认识到这种兵贵神速。
要想长期解决污染问题就需要教育公众多使用公共交通,多用公共资金来建设并运营高效的系统。
但是,只要措施得当,这些问题还是会很好地解决的。
参考译文:
Pollution is a problem because man in an increasingly populated and industrialized world is upsetting the environment in which he lives.2) Many scientists maintain that one of man’s greatest errors has been to equate growth with advancement. 3) Now “growth”industries are being looked on with suspicion in case their side effects damage the environment and disrupt the relationship of different forms of life.4) The growing population makes increasing demands on the world’s fixed supply of air water and land.5) This rise in population is accompanied by the desire of more and more people for a better standard of living, in an ever increasing amount of waste material to be disposed of.6) The problem has been causing increasing concern to living things and their environment.7) Many believe that man is not solving these problems quickly enough and that his selfish pursuit of possessions takes him past the point of no return before he fully appreciates the damage.
Long-term traffic and pollution reductions would depend on educating the public to use public transport more, and on governments using public money to construct and run efficient systems.
However, these issues can be addressed strategically within the proper policy adopted.
请将下面这段话翻译成英文:
中国玉
中国人对玉(jade) —向有着特殊的尊爱之情,从而延伸发展出一种优秀而古老的玉石文化。
作为配饰供人赏玩是玉器的原始功能之一,也是玉器最广泛的一种用途。
玉器作为一种文物,它也是历史的见证,有着不可复制的唯一性,更为当今世人所器重。
玉器从一种美化生活的装饰品,到简单的生产工具,然后被融入各种礼节(ritual)内容,被人格化、道德化,继而被看成是财富的象征、宗教图腾(totem)的崇拜……这些无不反映出中国传统文化和中华民族爱玉的心理。

请将下面这段话翻译成英文:
如何与病人沟通
医生该如何学习诚实对待他们的病人呢?进行更多关于如何与病人沟通其健康状况的培训是极其重要的——尤其是在告知(deliver)坏消息时。
如果检查结果对病人的健康没有影响的话,医生们可能不会把略有异常的实验室检查结果告诉给焦虑的病人。
相反地,医生也许会夸大(exaggerate )正常的结果,希望能刺激病人更好地照顾自己。
而病人们也需要清楚并确定他们所期望的医生的诚实度。
毕竟,即便在医生的办公室里,交流也是双向的。
参考译文
How can doctors learn to be honest with their patients? More training about how to communicate with patients about their health is critical—especially when it comes to delivering bad news. Doctors may not tell the anxious patients the slightly abnormal results of a lab test, if it has no impact on the patient’s health.Conversely, they might
exaggerate a normal result in hopes of motivating a patient to take better care of himself. Patients also need to be clear and certain about how honest they want their doctors to be. Communication is a two-way street, after all, even in the doctor’s office.
词汇解析
极其重要的critical
尤其是在告知(deliver)坏消息时when it comes to delivering bad news (注:注意come to的用法。

医患关系
医患关系是一种人际互动,而且医生也是人。
他们不想让病人心烦,也不想让病人难过或流泪。
但他们也需要成为专业人士,所以他
们需要找一种有效的沟通方式。
对于医生们来说,认识到这一点是至关重要的。
因为尽管谎言是善意的,但研究表明病人们更喜欢真相,他们宁可听到坏消息,也不愿意对对糟糕的身体状况一无所知。
完全知情是病人能对所要发生的任何事情进行处理和做好准备的一种途径。
参考译文
The doctor-patient relationship is a human interaction, and doctors are human too. They don’t want to upset their patients, and neither do they want their patients to look unhappy or shed tears. But they also need to be professionals, so they need to find out an effective way of communicating.
That’s critical for doctors to realize, because as well-intentioned as their lies may be, studies show that patients prefer the truth, and would rather hear bad news than remain ignorant about a terrible physical condition. Being fully informed is a way that patients can cope and prepare for whatever might occur.

文化是一个非常广泛的概念,给它下一个严格和精确的定义是一件非常困难的事情。
笼统地说,文化是一种社会现象,是人们长期创造形成的产物,同时又是一种历史现象,是社会历史的积淀物(sediment)。
确切地说,文化是能够被传承的国家或民族的历史、地理、风土人情、传统习俗、生活方式、文学艺术、行为规范、思维方式、价值观念等,是人类之间进行交流的普遍认可的一种能够传承的意识形态(ideology)。
参考译文
Culture is a very broad concept, and it is extremely difficult to define it strictly and exactly. Generally speaking, culture is a social phenomenon, which is a product created by people for ages. And it is also a historical phenomenon, which is sediment of social history. To be exact, culture is national and ethnic history, geography, local customs and practices, traditional custom, lifestyles, literature and arts, behavioral norms, the way of thinking, values and so on, which can be inherited. And it is also a kind of ideology of inheritance, which is widely
recognized in communication of human beings.

请将下面这段话翻译成英文:
和平稳定是发展的前提和基础。
上个世纪,人类经历了两次世界大战,生灵涂炭,经济社会发展遭受严重挫折。
第二次世界大战结束以来,世界经济能够快速增长,主要得益于相对和平稳定的国际环境。
我们应该恪守联合国宪章宗旨和原则,充分发挥联合国及其安理会在维护和平、缔造和平、建设和平方面的核心作用。
坚持通过对话和协商,以和平方式解决国际争端。
我们应该坚持国家不论大小、强弱、贫富都是国际社会平等一员,以民主、包容、合作、共赢的精神实现共同安全,做到一国内部的事情一国自主办、大家共同的事情大家商量办,坚定不移奉行多边主义和国际合作,推进国际关系民主化。

参考译文:
Peace and stability form the prerequisite and foundation for development. The two world wars in the last century caused mankind untold sufferings and world economic and social development severe setbacks. It is mainly due to the relatively peaceful and stable international environment that the world economy has been able to grow at a fast pace in the post-war era.
We should abide by the purposes and principles of the UN Charter and bring into full play the central role of the United Nations and its Security Council in peace keeping, peace making and peace building. We should seek peaceful settlement of international disputes through dialogue and consultation.
All countries, big or small, strong or weak, rich or poor, are equal members of the international community. We should work for common security in a spirit of democracy, inclusiveness, cooperation and win-win progress. Internal affairs of a country should be handled independently by the country itself and international affairs should be managed collectively through consultation by all. We should be committed to multilateralism and international cooperation, and promote democracy in international relations.

由于中国经

据统计,在美国的学校中,有5万名孩子在学习汉语。
但推动汉语项目的发展不是没有遇到困难。
由于缺乏受过专业训练、持有证书的教师,一些学校很难加入汉语教学的竞争。
当学校聘用教师时,它们通常直接从中国招聘,这种方式为文化冲突埋下了隐患。

Mandarin, the official language of China, is suddenly hot in American schools. With the rapid development of China’s economy in the 21th century, both public and private schools in America are scrambling to add Mandarin to their curricula of foreign languages or expanding Chinese language programs already in place. By some estimates, as many as 50 000 children nationwide are taking Mandarin in American schools. To develop Chinese-language programs has met some difficulties. A shortage of professionally trained teachers with certificates has made it difficult for some schools to join the competition. When schools need to employ teachers, they often recruit them from China directly, which is a hidden trouble for culture clash.
