历年高级口译考题翻译试题及答案

历年高级口译考题翻译部分精解第一套英译中Since Darwin, biologists have been-firmly convinced that nature works without plan or meaning, pursuing no aim by the direct road of design. But today we see that this conviction is a fatal error. Why should evolution, exactly as Darwin knew it and described it, be planless and irrational? Do not aircraft design engineers work, at precisely that point where specific calculations and plans give out, according to the same principle of evolution, when they test the serviceability of a great number of statistically determined forms in the wind tunnel, in order to choose the one that functions best? Can we say that there is no process of natural selection when nuclear physicists, through thousands of computer operations, try to find out which materials, in which combinations and with what structural form, are best suited to the building of an atomic reactor? They also practise no designed adaptation, but work by the principle of selection. But it would never occur to anyone to call their method planless and irrational.【参考译文】达尔文以后的生物学家们一直相信,大自然的运行是没有计划没有意义的,不会按照预先设定的途径实现任何目的。

Each one is followed by several questions about it. You are to choose ONE best answer, (A), (B), (C) or (D), to each question. Answer all the questions following each passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in that passage and write the letter of the answer you have chosen in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.Questions 1—5Anyone who doubts that children are born with a healthy amount of ambition need spend only a few minutes with a baby eagerly learning to walk or a headstrong toddler starting to talk. No matter how many times the little ones stumble in their initial efforts, most keep on trying, determined to master their amazing new skill. It is only several years later, around the start of middle or junior high school, many psychologists and teachers agree, that a good number of kids seem to lose their natural drive to succeed and end up joining the ranks of underachievers. For the parents of such kids, whose own ambition is often inextricably tied to their children’s success, it can be a bewildering, painful experience. So it’s no wonder some parent s find themselves hoping that, just maybe, ambition can be taught like any other subject at school.It’s not quite that simple. “Kids can be given the opportunities to become passionate about a subject or activity, but they can’t be forced,〞says Jacquelynne Eccles, a psychology professor at the University of Michigan, who led a landmark, 25-year study examining what motivatedfirst-and seventh-grades in three school districts. Even so, a growing number of educators and psychologists do believe it is poss ible to unearth ambition in students who don’t seem to have much. They say that by instilling confidence, encouraging some risk taking, being accepting of failure and expanding the areas in which children may be successful, both parents and teachers can reignite that innate desire to achieve.Figuring out why the fire went out is the first step. Assuming that a kid doesn’t suffer from an emotional or learning disability, or isn’t involved in some family crisis at home, many educators attribute a sudden lack of motivation to a fear of failure or peer pressure that conveys the message that doing well academically somehow isn’t cool. “Kids get so caught up in the moment-to-moment issue of will they look smart or dumb, and it blocks them from thinking about the long term,〞says Carol Dweck, a psychology professor at Stanford. “You have to teach them that they are in charge of their intellectual growth.〞Over the past couple of years, Dweck has helped run an experimental workshop with New York City public school seventh-graders to do just that. Dubbed Brainology, the unorthodox approach uses basic neuroscience to teach kids how the brain works and how it can continue to develop throughout life. “The message is that everything is within the kids’ control, that the ir intelligence is malleable,〞says Lisa Blackwell, a research scientist at ColumbiaUniversity who has worked with Dweck to develop and run the program, which has helped increase the students’ interest in school and turned around their declining math grade s. More than any teacher or workshop, Blackwell says, “parents can play a critical role in conveying this message to their children by praising their effort, strategy and progress rather than emphasizing their ‘smartness’ or praising high performance alone. Most of all, parents should let their kids know that mistakes are a part of learning.〞Some experts say our education system, with its strong emphasis on testing and rigid separation of students into different levels of ability, also bears blame for the disappearance of drive in some kids. “These programs shut down the motivation of all kids who aren’t considered gifted and talented. They destroy their confidence,〞says Jeff Howard, a social psychologist and president of the Efficacy Institute, a Boston-area organization that works with teachers and parents in school districts around the country to help improve children’s academic performance. Howard and other educators say it’s important to expose kids to a world beyond homework and tests, through volun teer work, sports, hobbies and other extracurricular activities. “The crux of the issueis that many students experience education as irrelevant to their life goals and ambitions,〞says Michael Nakkual, a Harvard education professor who runs a Boston-area mentoring program called Project IF (Inventing the Future), which works to get low-income underachievers in touch with their aspirations. The key to getting kids to aim higher at school is to disabuse them of the notion that classwork is irrelevant, to show them how doing well at school can actually help them fulfill their dreams beyond it. Like any ambitious toddler, they need to understand that you have to learn to walk before you can run.1. Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the first paragraph?(A) Children are born with a kind of healthy ambition.(B) How a baby learns to walk and talk.(C) Ambition can be taught like other subjects at school.(D) Some teenage children lose their drive to succeed.2. According to some educators and psychologists, all of the following would be helpful to cultivate students’ ambition to succeed EXCEPT ________.(A) stimulating them to build up self-confidence(B) cultivating the attitude of risk taking(C) enlarging the areas for children to succeed(D) making them understand their family crisis3. What is the message that peer pressure conveys to children?(A) A sudden lack of motivation is attributed to the student’s failure.(B) Book knowledge is not as important as practical experience.(C) Looking smart is more important for young people at school.(D) To achieve academic excellence should not be treated as the top priority.4. The word “malleable〞in the clause “that their intelligence is malleable,〞(para.3) most probably means capable of being ________.(A) altered and developed(B) blocked and impaired(C) sharpened and advanced(D) replaced and transplanted5. The expression “to disabuse them of the notion〞(para.4) can be paraphrased as________.(A) to free them of the idea(B) to help them understand the idea(C) to imbue them with the notion(D) to inform them of the concept Questions 6—10Civil-liberties advocates reeling from the recent revelations on surveillance had something else to worry about last week: the privacy of the billions of search queries made on sites like Google, AOL, Yahoo and Microsoft. As part of a long-running court case, the government has asked those companies to turn over information on its users’ search behavior. Al l but Google have handed over data, and now the Department of Justice has moved to compel the search giant to turn over the goods.What makes this case different is that the intended use of the information is not related to national security, but the gov ernment’s continuing attempt to police Internet pornography. In 1998, Congress passed the Child Online Protection Act (COPA), but courts have blocked its implementation due to First Amendment concerns. In its appeal, the DOJ wants to prove how easy it is to inadvertently stumble upon pore. In order to conduct a controlled experiment—to be performed by a UC Berkeley professor of statistics—the DOJ wants to use a large sample of actual search terms from the different search engines. It would then use those terms to do its own searches, employing the different kinds of filters each search engine offers, in an attempt to quantify how often “material that is harmful to minors〞might appear. Google contends that since it is not a party to the case, the government has not right to demand its proprietary information to perform its test. “We intend to resist their motion vigorously,〞said Google attorney Nicole Wong.DOJ spokesperson Charles Miller says that the government is requesting only the actual search terms, and not anything that would link the queries to those who made them. (The DOJ is also demanding a list of a million Web sites that Google indexes to determine the degree to which objectionable sites are searched.) Originally, the government asked for a treasure trove of all searches made in June and July 2005; the request has been scaled back to one week’s worth of search queries.One oddity about the DOJ’s strategy is that the experiment could conceivably sink its own case. If the built-in filters that each search engine provides are effective in blocking porn sites, the government will have wound up proving what the opposition has said all along—you don’t needto suppress speech to protect minors on the Net. “We think that our filtering technology does a good job protecting minors from inadvertently seeing adult content,〞says Ramez Naam, group program manager of MSN Search.Though the government intends to use these data specifically for its COPA-related test, it’s possible that the information could lead to further investigations and, perhaps, subpoenas to find out who was doing the searching. What if certain search terms indicated that people were contemplating terrorist actions or other criminal activities? Says the DOJ’s Miller, “I’m assuming that if something raised alarms, we would hand it over to the proper authorities.〞Privacy advocates fear that if the government request is upheld, it will open the door to further government examination of search behavior. One solution would be for Google to stop storing the information, but the company hopes to eventually use the personal information of consenting customers to improve search performance. “Search is a window into people’s personalities,〞says Kurt Opsahl, an Electronic Frontier Foundation attor ney. “They should be able to take advantage of the Internet without worrying about Big Brother looking over their shoulders.〞6. When the American government asked Google, AOL, Yahoo and Microsoft to turn over information on its users’ search behavior, t he major intention is _________.(A) to protect national security(B) to help protect personal freedom(C) to monitor Internet pornography(D) to implement the Child Online Protection Act7. Google refused to turn over “its proprietary informatio n〞(para.2) required by DOJ as it believes that ________.(A) it is not involved in the court case(B) users’ privacy is most important(C) the government has violated the First Amendment(D) search terms is the company’s business secret8. The ph rase “scaled back to〞in the sentence “the request has been scaled back to one week’s worth of search queries〞(para.3) can be replaced by _________.(A) maximized to(B) minimized to(C) returned to(D) reduced to9. In the sentence “One oddity about the DOJ’s strategy is that the experiment could conceivably sink its own case.〞(para.4), the expression “sink its own case〞most probably means that _________.(A) counterattack the opposition(B) lead to blocking of porn sites(C) provide evidence to disprove the case(D) give full ground to support the case10. When Kurt Opsahl says that “They should be able to take advantage of the Internet without worrying about Big Brother looking over their shoulders.〞(para.5), the expression “Big Brother〞is used to refer to _________.(A) a friend or relative showing much concern(B) a colleague who is much more experienced(C) a dominating and all-powerful ruling power(D) a benevolent and democratic organizationQuestions 11—15On New Year’s Day, 50,000 inmates in Kenyan jails went without lunch. This was not some mass hunger strike to highlight poor living conditions. It was an extraordinary humanitarian gesture: the money that would have been spent on their lunches went to the charity Food Aid to help feed an estimated 3.5 million Kenyans who, because of a severe drought, are threatened with starvation. The drought is big news in Africa, affecting huge areas of east Africa and the Horn. If you are reading this in the west, however, you may not be aware of it—the media is not interested in old stories. Even if you do know about the drought, you may not be aware that it is devastating one group of people disproportionately: the pastoralists. There are 20 million nomadic orsemi-nomadic herders in this region, and they are fast becoming some of the poorest people in the continent. Their plight encapsulates Africa’s perennial problem with drought and famine.How so? It comes down to the reluctance of governments, aid agencies and foreign lenders to support the herders’ traditional way of life. Instead they have tended to try to turn them into commercial ranchers or agriculturalists, even though it has been demonstrated time and again that pastoralists are well adapted to their harsh environments, and that moving livestock according to the seasons or climatic changes makes their methods far more viable than agriculture insub-Saharan drylands.Furthermore, African pastoralist systems are often more productive, in terms of protein and cash per hectare, than Australian, American and other African ranches in similar climaticconditions. They make a substantial contribution to their countries’ national economies. In Kenya, for example, the turnover of the pastoralist sector is worth $800 million per year. In countries such as Burkina Faso, Eritrea and Ethiopia, hides from pastoralists’ herds make up over 10 per cent of export earnings. Despite this productivity, pastoralists still starve and their animals perish when drought hits. One reason is that only a trickle of the profits goes to the herders themselves; the lion’s share is pocketed by traders. This is partly because the herders only sell much of their stock during times of drought and famine, when they need the cash to buy food, and the terms of trade in this situation never work in their favour. Another reason is the lack of investment in herding areas.Funding bodies such as the World Bank and-USAID tried to address some of the problems in the 1960s, investing millions of dollars in commerci al beef and dairy production. It didn’t work. Firstly, no one bothered to consult the pastoralists about what they wanted. Secondly, rearing livestock took precedence over human progress. The policies and strategies of international development agencies more or less mirrored the thinking of their colonial predecessors. They were based on two false assumptions: that pastoralism is primitive and inefficient, which led to numerous failed schemes aimed at converting herders to modern ranching models; and thatA frica’s drylands can support commercial ranching. They cannot. Most of Africa’s herders live in areas with unpredictable weather systems that are totally unsuited to commercial ranching.What the pastoralists need is support for their traditional lifestyle. Over the past few years, funders and policy-makers have been starting to get the message. One example is intervention by governments to ensure that pastoralists get fair prices for their cattle when they sell them in times of drought, so that they can afford to buy fodder for their remaining livestock and cereals to keep themselves and their families alive (the problem in African famines is not so much a lack of food as a lack of money to buy it). Another example is a drought early-warning system run by the Kenyan government and the World Bank that has helped avert livestock deaths.This is all promising, but more needs to be done. Some African governments still favour forcing pastoralists to settle. They should heed the latest scientific research demonstrating the productivity of traditional cattle-herding. Ultimately, sustainable rural development in pastoralist areas will depend on increasing trade, so one thing going for them is the growing demand for livestock products: there will likely be an additional 2 billion consumers worldwide by 2020, the vast majority in developing countries. To ensure that pastoralists benefit, it will be crucial to give them a greater say in local policies. Other key tasks include giving a greater say to women, who play critical roles in livestock production. The rich world should pay proper attention to the plight of the pastoralists. Leaving them dependent on foreign food aid is unsustainable and will lead to more resentment, conflict, environmental degradation and malnu trition. It is in the rich world’s interests to help out.11. Which of the following CANNOT be concluded from the passage?(A) Forcing Africa’s nomadic herders to become ranchers will save them from drought.(B) The difference between pastoralist and agriculturalist is vital to the African people.(C) The rich world should give more support to the African people to overcome drought.(D) Environmental degradation should be the major concern in developing Africa’s pastoralism.12. The word “encaps ulates〞in the sentence “Their plight encapsulates Africa’s perennial problem with drought and famine.〞(para. l) can be replaced by ________.(A) concludes.(B) involves.(C) represents.(D) aggravates.13. What is the author’s attitude toward A frican drought and traditional lifestyle of pastoralism?(A) Neutral and indifferent.(B) Sympathetic and understanding.(C) Critical and vehement.(D) Subjective and fatalistic.14. When the author writes “the policies and strategies of internat ional development agencies more or less mirrored the thinking of their colonial predecessors.〞(para.4), he implies all the following EXCEPT that the aid agencies did not __________.(A) have an objective view of the situation in Africa(B) understand the unpredictable weather systems there(C) feel themselves superior in decision making(D) care about the development of the local people15. The author’s main purpose in writing this article in _________.(A) to evaluate the living conditions of Kenyan pastoralists(B) to give suggestions on the support of the traditional pastoralism in Africa(C) to illustrate the difference between commercial ranching and pastoralism(D) to criticize the colonial thinking of western aid agencies Questions 16—20The prospects for finding life beyond Earth may be brightening. Today, scientists are reporting evidence for yet another potential habitat in our solar system: Saturn’s moon Enceladus. Scientists mining new data from the Cassini spacecraft say they may have found evidence that Enceladus—the planet’s fourth-largest moon—hosts liquid water.If the results hold up, this would bring to four the number of bodies in the solar system—including Earth—that display active volcanism. And since life as biologists know it requires liquid water and a source of energy, Enceladus would join Jupiter’s moon Europa and Saturn’s moon Titan, as well as Mars, as possible spots beyond Earth where simple forms of life may have gained or still maintain a foothold.The di scovery, however, is bittersweet for many scientists. NASA’s proposed budget for fiscal 2007 calls for a 50 percent cut in its astrobiology program. Although the program is a tiny piece of the agency’s overall spending plan for science, it’s a significant source of money for probing fundamental questions of how and why life emerged on Earth and whether life arose elsewhere in the universe.A 50-percent cut “is almost a going-out-of-business-level cut〞in a vibrant line of research that stands as one pilla r supporting President Bush’s vision for space exploration, says planetary scientist Sean Solomon, who heads the Department of Terrestrial Magnetism at the Carnegie Institution of Washington.Nevertheless, the research in today’s issue of the journal Sci ence is the sort of thing that continues to light a fire under the field. Its report about liquid water under the icy surface of Enceladus is a “radical conclusion,〞acknowledges Carolyn Porco, who leads the imaging team working with data from the Cassini orbiter. But if the team is right, “we have significantly broadened the diversity of solar-system environments〞that might have rolled out the welcome mat “for living organisms,〞she concludes.Images released last fall show the moon ejecting vast plumes of material near its unexpectedly warm south pole. As the team pondered the evidence, they nixed several explanations, including the idea that the particles in the plumes were driven by vapor billowing out as ice reached the surface and immediately turned into a gas. The last idea standing: Liquid water was venting from reservoirs near the surface, perhaps only tens of meters below the frigid crust. This explanation also helped solve the riddle of puzzlingly high levels of oxygen atoms found in Saturn’s ne ighborhood.Confirmation could come with additional flybys, if water—and perhaps life—is present, it wouldn’t be “luxuriant,〞notes Jeffrey Kargel, a researcher at the University of Arizona at Tucson. It likely would face tough conditions—nasty chemicals, very low temperatures, and little energy to drive it. Still, he adds, it’s premature to cross the moon off the list of possible “outposts〞for life beyond Earth. Yet the prospect of building on these results could be dimmer with the threat of budget cuts. The proposed reductions post several challenges, researchers say.。

英译中1Since Darwin, biologists have been-firmly convinced that nature works without plan or meaning, pursuing no aim by the direct road of design. But today we see that this conviction is a fatal error. Why should evolution, exactly as Darwin knew it and described it, be planless and irrational? Do not aircraft design engineers work, at precisely that point where specific calculations and plans give out, according to the same principle of evolution, when they test the serviceability of a great number of statistically determined forms in the wind tunnel, in order to choose the one that functions best? Can we say that there is no process of natural selection when nuclear physicists, through thousands of computer operations, try to find out which materials, in which combinations and with what structural form, are best suited to the building of an atomic reactor? They also practise no designed adaptation, but work by the principle of selection. But it would never occur to anyone to call their method planless and irrational.中译英11995年10月,黄浦江上又一座大桥凌空飞架,将浦南与奉贤连接起来,成为继徐浦、南浦、杨浦三座大桥Z后建成通车的第四座大桥——奉浦大桥。

Unit Eleven Catering Culture 饮食文化(1)我国悠久的历史.广褒的国土.与世界各国和海外文化的广泛接触,孕育中餐烹饪的独特艺术。

中国有一句古话至今还广为流传,叫做―民以食为天‖。

几千年的推陈出新和不断累积,使中餐受到越来越多的海外人士的青睐,成了我国对外文化交流的一个友好使者。

(2)现代中国已享有―烹饪王国‖之美誉,精致的烹调艺术盛行全球,中餐烹饪已名列世界顶尖菜系之林。

中餐烹调所用的天然配料,品种繁多,几无穷尽;烹调方法,亦层出不穷,不可悉数。

这些无与伦比的中餐烹饪特点,足说明中餐馆及中餐烹调之所以名扬海外的缘由。

(1)China‘s long history, vast territory and extensive contact with other nations and cultures havegiven birth to t distinctive art of Chinese Culinary(中餐烹调).An ancient Chinese saying, still pop today, ―Food is t paramount necessity of t people.‖With several thousand years of creative and accumulative efforts,t Chinese cuisine has become increasingly popular among M&M overseas gourmets,serving as an envoy of friendship in China‘s external cultural exchanges.(2)Modern China enjoys a WW reputation as t ―kingdom of cuisine‖,t exquisite Chinese Culinary Art,has prevailed all over t world andregarded indisputably as one of t world‘s finest culinary traditions,T nearly endless variety o natural ingredients & methods of preparation employed in Chinese cuisine stand out unequaled elsewhere in t world, which may very well account for t universal popularity of Chinese restaurants and Chinese cooking overseas.(3)评判中餐烹调的优劣可依据中餐的三大要素,即―色香味‖。

―色‖作为―色香味‖三要素中的首要标准,充分体现在宴会菜肴的装盘.摆放和图案上。

最能显示色彩的是首先上桌的那道煞费苦心而精心制作的冷盘。

―香‖不仅是指鼻子对食物的直接感受,它还包括所选原料的新鲜程度以及佐料的合理调配。

―味‖则体现恰到好处的调味艺术,当然它也包括食物的质地,及切菜的刀工。

色香味三要素高品质,只有通过选料.调料.适时烹调.把握火候.装盘上桌微妙步骤细心协调才能取得.8人一桌标准晚餐含四道冷盘.四道热炒,外加汤和米饭。

外国宾客见之,常常惊叹不已,将其视为一次丰盛晚宴。

(3)T 3 essential elements,by which CCg is judged r known as ―color, aroma & taste‖.T ―color‖ of Chinese food, t first o these elements which is so evident in a Chinese banquet, includes t layout & design of dishes.Best exemplified by t large elaborately-prepared cold dish served at t beginning of t dinner.―Aroma‖implies more than what one‘s nose can detect directly;it also includes t freshness of t raw materials and t blending of seasonings.―Taste‖ is t art o proper seasoning,it also involves t texture o food & fine slicing techniques.These 3 essential elements, color, aroma, taste,are achieved by t careful coordination of a series of delicate steps:selecting ingredients, mixing flavor, timing the cooking, controlling the heat and finally, laying out the food on t plate for t table.Visitors to China are often surprised when a typical dinner for a table of 8 people consists of 4 courses of cold dishes, 4 courses of hot dishes, coupled with soup & steamed rice;they consider this a lavish spread.(4)但在中国人眼里,以这种规格的晚餐招待宾客,只是一种起码的标准。

准备10 道份量适中的菜肴并不为过,即使献上16道菜,亦不足为奇。

在中国,一桌标准宴席包括4至8个事先制作好的冷盘,八道现做的热炒。

两道观赏性大菜(如全鱼.乳猪.全鸡等),此外还有汤.米饭和点心。

晚宴结束前还有一道水果。

来华访问的海外宾客应记住,赴宴不可贪吃,每道菜―浅尝辄止‖。

从此角度,中国宴席犹如西方国家的冷餐招待会。

(5)中国宴席餐桌上的酒通常为啤酒.黄酒和烈性白酒三种。

人们往往以―干杯‖的方式互相敬酒。

干杯意思是一口喝干杯中酒。

―干‖了―杯‖中的酒,可以表示心诚和欢乐。

当然,外国宾客与中国东道主敬酒时,小啜一口也未尝不可。

(4)But in t Chinese mind, a dinner prepared as above for guests is t minimum requirement.10 courses of dishes, not necessarily prepared in huge quantities,would not be considered excessive, and few people would blink at 16.A standard banquet will consist of 4 to 8 prepared cold dishes, 8 hot dishes served one at atime, two whole-size showpiece dishes (such as a whole fish, a suckling pig or a chicken), in addition to soups, steamed rice and pastries.The dinner finishes up with fruit.Overseas visitors should remember that it is often unnecessary to eat more than a single mouthful of a dish at a Chinese banquet.In this way, a Chinese banquet takes on the character of a western buffet reception.(5)Often beer, yellow rice wine & strong white liquor are served at a Chinese banquet.People at a table will usually ―Gan Bei‖ when toasting each other.―GB‖ means to raise up 1‘s WG & drink it all t way down so t glass is ―dried up to t last drop‖.People dry up their glasses to communicate message to others that they are sincere & joyful.It is quite acceptable for a foreign guest to take a sip instead of emptying the glass when toasting with his or her Chinese host.(6)但中国普通家餐却完全不同于宴席。

成年人平时在家就餐时,通常只吃两小碗米饭,或一大碗面条,或几只馒头,外加几个荤素炒菜,而非以菜为主,以米饭或面食为辅。

对大多数中国人说,一餐饭中所摄取热量有75%来自谷粮。

(7)世代相袭传统,中国人就餐围桌而坐,人人手里一碗主食,炒菜放在桌子中央,大家一起食用。

这一古老风俗习惯反映食物在中华文明史上的重要地位:占据餐桌中心位置是炒菜,而不是鲜花,晚餐的主要话题常常是食物。

菜肴的各种色彩和材料搭配,给人以美享受,共食一碗菜的习俗有助于家庭成员之间的团结和友谊。

当然在一些卫生意识较强地方,人们在共食放在餐桌中央的菜肴时,必须使用―公筷‖或―公用‖汤匙,以防疾病传染。

(6) HE, an average Chinese HM is quite dif in composition from a Chinese banquet.At an everyday HM, an adult may consume 2 small bowls of steamed rice,or a large bowel of noodles, or several pieces of steamed bread,accompanied by several meat or vegetable dishes,but not t other way round.For most Chinese, about 75% of an average HM‘s calories come from grain sources.(7)Traditionally, at t Chinese dining table everyone has his or her own bowl of staple food,that is, steamed rice, noodles or steamed bread,while t dishes are placed in t middle of t dinning table to be shared by all.This age-old custom is one manifestation of the importance of food in Chinese civilization: It‘s t cooked dishes, rather than flowers, that serve as centerpieces on a Chinese table;food is frequently t main topic of dinnertime conversation.Variety in t color & material of t dishes serves aesthetic ends, while t ritual of sharing t food from t same dishes is conducive to family togetherness & friendship.HE,In some more health-conscious environments, only ―public‖ chopsticks and spoons are used to remove food from the plates in t middle of t dining table,so as to prevent any possible spread of diseases.(8)以上所介绍的情况对外国客人来说,虽不应是一种离奇的―天方夜谭‖,却也说明中国人在饮食方面所持的价值观与西方人有很大的不同。
