1.4 Speech by Wang Guangya at Princeton UniversityLadies and Gentlemen,Good evening.I am honored to be invited to your seminar tonight. For me, for my colleagues and for many other Chinese, Princeton has long been a familiar name. With a history longer than the country, it has produced many outstanding people,Woodrow Wilson, the 28th US president, Albert Einstein, the great scientist, and T. S. Eliot, the famous poet, to name but a few. As former president Bill Clinton said in 1996 at the celebrations for the 250th anniversary of Princeton,“At every pivotal moment in American history, Princeton, its leadership, faculty and its students have played a crucial role.”I am more pleased to learn that all of you have a keen interest in China. Though our two countries are geographically far apart, we have a great deal in common in the everyday life. While many Chinese enjoy Hollywood movies and McDonald’s fast food, many Americans find that their clothes and daily necessities are made in China. I hope that today’s seminar will help you gain a better understanding of China and its foreign policy, thus deepening further our friendship and cooperation.1.5 新工厂落成典礼上的讲话各位尊敬的来宾,女士们,先生们:下午好!欢迎大家前来参加我们公司在中国的首家新厂房的落成典礼!感谢各位拨冗光临,与我们共同庆祝这一盛大的活动!我谨代表公司对今天来参加典礼的各位供应商、客户嘉宾、各位员工和业务伙伴说声“谢谢!”公司管理层深深为我们的新工厂感到骄傲,我们能干的员工感到骄傲,他们发展了工厂的业务,使之达到国际水平。

英语学习用几个字概括起来就是听、说、读、写、 译,由此也可看出,译排在最后,是英语学习中较难 的一部分,做翻译时要在听到某一段话后能够很快辨 别出其中主要意思,并能用另一种语言完整表述出来。 因此,口译不要求长期记忆,但要强化短期记忆。有 的人可能连续说好几分钟,翻译必许将这些内容记住 并即时翻译出来。考生可先从记简单的几句话开始, 然后一点点增加记忆较长的内容。这个内容学习没有 捷径可走,考生必须踏踏实实才能学好。

1-1在中国共产党中央委员会的经济工作会议中,中国的旅游业被定为国民经济的新增长点。
这不仅提高了旅游业在经济和社会发展中的地位,同时也为旅游业在下个世纪的发展铺平了道路。
通过检查,评选出了54个旅游城市,这样的评选不仅改善了城市旅游环境,也加快了城市旅游业国际化和现代化的进程。
尽管国际市场的环境并不好,但是我国的旅游业仍然保持持续的增长,海外游客的稳定增长促进了国旅游业的发展。
1998年,旅游业的总收入为3430亿元人民币,比去年增长了10.2%,为实现国民经济预定的增长目标做出了巨大的贡献。
征得国务院的同意,我们引进了关于试建中外合资旅游机构的暂行办法,由于这一办法的颁布,形成了进一步扩大旅游业对外开放的新构架。
这一办法会帮助我们打开吸引游客,从海外旅游业中引进先进的管理经验的渠道,这同样也会给国的旅游业市场带来新的竞争。

09年3月高级口译听力各部分全文本及解析-口译笔译考试Spot Dictation 文本When Americans think about hunger, we usually think in terms of mass-starvation in far-away countries, but hunger too often lurks in our backyards. In 2006, 35.1million people, including 12.4million children in the United States did not have access to enough food for an active healthy life. Some of these individuals relied on emergency food sources and some experienced hunger. Although most people think of hungry people and homeless people as the same, the problem of hunger reaches far beyond homelessness. While the number of people being hungry or at the risk of hunger may be surprising, it is the faces of those hungry individuals that would probably most shock you. The face of hunger is the older couple who has worked hard for their entire lives, only to find their savings wiped out by unavoidable medical bills, or a single mother who has to choose whether the salary from her minimum wage job will go to buy food or pay rent, or a child who struggles to concentrate on his schoolwork because his family couldn’t afford dinner the night before. At December 2006 survey estimated that 48 percent of those requesting emergency food assistance, were either children or their parents. Children are twice as likely to live inhouseholds where someone experiences hunger and food insecurity than adults. One in ten adults compared to one in five children live in households where someone suffers from hunger and some food insecurity. Child poverty is more wide spread in the United States than in any other industrialized country. At the same time, the US government spends less than any industrialized country to pull its children out of poverty. We have long known that the minds and bodies of small children need adequate food to develop properly. But science is just beginning to understand the full extent of this relationship. As late as the 1980s, conventional wisdom held that only the most severe forms of malnutrition actually alter brain development. The latest empirical evidence however shows that even relatively mild under-nutrition produces cognitive imperiments in children which can last a life time. 解析此段高口的Spot Dictation 整体难度较低,主题较为浅显易懂。

1.4 Speech by Wang Guangya at Princeton UniversityLadies and Gentlemen,Good evening.I am honored to be invited to your seminar tonight. For me, for my colleagues and for many other Chinese, Princeton has long been a familiar name. With a history longer than the country, it has produced many outstanding people, Woodrow Wilson, the 28th US president, Albert Einstein, the great scientist, and T. S. Eliot, the famous poet, to name but a few. As former president Bill Clinton said in 1996 at the celebrations for the 250th anniversary of Princeton,“At every pivotal moment in American history, Princeton, its leadership, faculty and its students have played a crucial role.”I am more pleased to learn that all of you have a keen interest in China. Though our two countries are geographically far apart, we have a great deal in common in the everyday life. While many Chinese enjoy Hollywood movies and McDonald’s fast food, many Americans find that their clothes and daily necessities are made in China. I hope that today’s seminar will help you gain a better understanding of China and its foreign policy, thus deepening further our friendship and cooperation.1.5 新工厂落成典礼上的讲话各位尊敬的来宾,女士们,先生们:下午好!欢迎大家前来参加我们公司在中国的首家新厂房的落成典礼!感谢各位拨冗光临,与我们共同庆祝这一盛大的活动!我谨代表公司对今天来参加典礼的各位供应商、客户嘉宾、各位员工和业务伙伴说声“谢谢!”公司管理层深深为我们的新工厂感到骄傲,我们能干的员工感到骄傲,他们发展了工厂的业务,使之达到国际水平。

country, in fact one of the largest in the world. yet it has only 26 million people, which is less than half the population of the united kingdom. it extends from the great lakes in the south to the majestic rocky mountains in the west, and the bleak arctic islands in the far north. a third of the country is covered by forest and there are also vast grasslands and countless lakes and rivers.there are great variations in climate. winters are extremely cold except in vancouver which has a milder climate owing to its location on the west coast, so take a heavy overcoat and a fur hat. canadian summers are warm on the whole, especially inland, so youll only need lightweight clothing.a quarter of all canadians, mainly those living in the province of quebec in the east, speak french as their first language. in addition, there are half a million american indians, a million germans and smaller numbers of italians, ukrainians and inuit. canada has two official languages: english and french, except in the province of quebec where french alone is the official language. youll find english spoken virtually everywhere apart from quebec and if you plan to visit quebec city, youll definitely need a french phrasebook if you dont speak french.eating out is a pleasure in canada and youll find restaurants, coffee shops and snack bars to suit every pocket. menus offer a wide choice with excellent seafood like pacific salmon, lobsters and clams, meat dishes including moose steaks and beefsteaks, and also a range of ethnic foods. for the sweet course, the specialty is waffles, a kind of thick pancake, served withmaple syrup. beer is good but foreign wines, even those fromneighboring america, tend to be quite dear and local wines arenot particularly good....ii. section b multiple-choice questions (excerpt)artificial intelligence, or ai, is the ability of a machine to exhibitintelligent behavior. artificial intelligence systems are modeledafter the human brain. like the brain, an ai system receivesinformation, processes it, and then produces an appropriateaction or response. since the 1940s, many specialists,including computer scientists, mathematicians, philosophers,and electrical engineers have tried to make a machine asintelligent as the human brain, but so far no computer evencomes close.ai, however, has proven to be better than the human brain foranswering certain types of questions. for example, al seems tobe better, and certainly faster, than the human brain forproblem solving when you must remember and process a largeamount of information. however, ai is still not capable of anytype of adaptable, or truly intelligent behavior. so far, aiprograms are quite primitive when compared to the kinds ofreasoning, language, and learning the human brain can do....iii. section c multiple-choice questions (excerpt)professor yang: hello, 1m lynn yang, president of the cityseries club, and im pleased tointroduce professor paulson to you, our guest speaker fromcanada. professor paulson is a noted sociologist whospecializes in how people use their leisure time. he has writtenmany books on this subject and has given lectures all

time in todays society, i wouldlike to tell you a bit of the history of leisure time. i will talk firstabout the history of leisure time because i think this historicalperceptive will help us understand present-day attitudes a littlebetter.did you know that the notion of “time off ’is a product of modern industrial society?。
