Passage translationSection A English to ChineseThe Literature of Knowledge and the Literature of Power (Excerpt)By Thomas de QuincyWhat is it that we mean by literature? Popularly, and amongst the thoughtless, it is held toinclude everything that is printed in a book. Little logic is required to disturb that definition. The most thoughtless person is easily made aware that in the idea of literature one essential element is some relation to a general and common interest of man—so that what applies only to a local, or professional, or merely personal interest, even though presenting itself in the shape of a book, will not belong to Literature. So far the definition is easily narrowed; and it is as easily expanded. For not only is much that takes a station in books not literature; but inversely, much that really is literature never reaches a station in books. The weekly sermons of Christendom, that vast pulpit literature which acts so extensively upon the popular mind—to warn, to uphold, to renew, to comfort, to alarm—does not attain the sanctuary of libraries in the ten-thousandth part of its extent. The Drama again—as, for instance, the finest of Shakespeare’s plays in England, and all leading Athenian plays in the noontide of the Attic stage—operated as a literature on the public mind, and were (according to the strictest letter of that term) published through the audiences that witnessed their representation some time before they were published as things to be read; and they were published in this scenical mode of publication with much more effect than they could have had as books during ages of costly copying or of costly printing.参考译文:我们所说的“文学”是什么呢?人们,尤其是对此欠考虑者,普遍会认为:文学包括印在书本中的一切。

感谢网友的及时回忆,谢谢给位的奉献。
欢迎补充!愿各位取的好成绩!1、2013复旦大学MTI专业课真题回忆版基础英语。
今年的基础英语稍微有些变化,第一题仍然是无选项完型,20个空,第二题是改错,和第一题是属于一篇文章的,二十行二十个错误,第三题是词汇和语法,词汇题比去年增加了不少,第四题是阅读理解四篇一共15个小题,最后一篇稍微有些深度,上来第一句是boresom 其实是讲现代社会摧毁理性和真理的。
然后作文25分就最后一篇阅读理解发表一下自己的看法。
翻译。
背了一堆翻译词汇今年竟然一个词汇翻译都没有,就一个汉译英70分与一个英译汉80分。
英译汉是一篇医学文章,里面什么胆囊啊肠啊的生词一大堆。
汉译英是文言文啊亲,我旦不学好啊,跟着北大学考文言文额。
原文如下:世有三乐,真乐也。
一曰人伦之乐,二曰心地之乐,三曰讲习之乐。
孟子曰:“父母俱存,兄弟无故,一乐也。
”此人伦之乐也;“仰不愧于天,俯不怍于人,二乐也。
”此心地之乐也;“得天下英才而教育之,三乐也。
”此讲习之乐也。
人伦之乐自父母兄弟之外,妻室欲其同甘苦,子孙欲其师教,宗族欲其和睦,女之适人者欲其得所归结,自人伦而推之,有一败人意则非乐也。
心地之乐岂止俯仰无愧怍而已,其道德必与圣贤合、与天地并,可也;道德未同乎圣贤、未同乎天地,不可以已也。
讲习之乐何止于得英才而教育,凡学问德行之有胜乎吾者,吾方且师之,虽受人之教育亦乐矣。
此三者,天下之真乐。
不此之乐,而以外物为乐,乐未一二,而忧已八九。
世俗以为乐,识者不贵也。
百科知识中国四大发明,欧债危机,金砖四国,莫言,生态难民,莎士比亚,君主立宪制,euro tunnel,thedeclaration of independence,DNA,伦敦奥运会,秦始皇陵兵马俑,论语,大中华文库,Encyclopedia Britannica,a nation on wheels,还有一个masps 还是什么的这个不知道,数了数17个还有8个想不起来了,这个是一个2分,一共五十分。

Passage translationSection A English to ChineseAll parents damage their children. It cannot be helped. Youth, like a clean glass, absorbs the prints of its handlers. Some parents smudge, others crack, a few shatter childhoods completely into jagged little pieces, beyond repair. Parents rarely let go of their children, so children let go of them. They move on. They move away. The moments that used to define them—a mother’sapproval, a father’s nod—are covered by moments of their own accomplishments. It is not until much later, as the skin sags and the heart weakens, that children understand: their stories, and all their accomplishments, sit atop the stories of their mothers and fathers, stones upon stones, beneath the waters of their lives.Through it all, despite it all, Eddie privately adored his old man, because sons will adore their fathers through even the worst behavior. It is how they learn devotion. Before he can devote himself to God or a woman, a boy will devote himself to his father, even foolishly, even beyond explanation.参考译文:所有的父母都会伤害孩子。

Passage Translation (总题数:0,分数:0.00)五、Section A: English to Chinese(总题数:1,分数:60.00)31.A reader in Florida, apparently bruised by some personal experience, writes in to complain, "If I steal a nickel"s worth of merchandize, I am a thief and punished; but if I steal the love of another man"s wife, I am free." This is a prevalent misconception in many people"s minds—that love, like merchandize, can be "stolen". Numerous states, in fact, have enacted laws allowing damages for "alienation of affections".But love is not a commodity; the real thing cannot be bought, sold, traded or stolen. It is anact of the will, turning of the emotions, a change in the climate of the personality.When a husband or wife is "stolen" by another person, that husband or wife was already ripe for the stealing, was already predisposed toward a new partner. The "love bandit" was only taking what was waiting to be taken, what wanted to be taken.We tend to treat persons like goods. We even speak of children "belonging" to their parents. But nobody "belongs" to anyone else. Each person belongs to himself and to God. Children are entrusted to their parents, and if their parents do not treat them properly, the state has the right to remove them from their parents" trusteeship.Many of us, when young, had the experience of a sweetheart being taken away from us by somebody more attractive and more appealing. At the time, we may have resented this intruder—but as we grew older, we recognized that the sweetheart had never been ours to begin with. It was not the intruder that "caused" the break, but the lack of a real relationship.On the surface, many marriages seem to break up because of a "third party". This is, however, a psychological illusion. The other woman or the other man merely serves as a pretext for dissolving a marriage that had already lost its essential integrity.Nothing is more futile and more self-defeating than the bitterness of spurned love, the vengeful feeling that someone else has "come between" oneself and a beloved. This is always a distortion of reality, for people are not the captive of victims of others—they are free agents, working out their own destinies for good or for ill.But the rejected lover or mate cannot afford to believe that his beloved has freely turned away from him—and so he ascribes sinister or magical properties to the interloper. He calls him hypnotist or a thief or a home-breaker. In the majority of cases, however, when a home is broken, the breaking has begun long before any "third party" has appeared on the scene.(分数:60.00)__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案:()解析:一位来自佛罗里达州的读者来信向我抱怨,他似乎有过什么受伤的经历。

[考研类试卷]2013年中山大学英语专业(基础英语)真题试卷一、阅读理解0 The swimming sky of oceanic expanse in Van Gogh's The Starry Night; the human figure born of marble by the careful hands of Rodin; the graceful, ethereal figure of Degas's ballerina; all communicate both emotion and essence in a world where aesthetic reigns supreme. Art has forever been humankind's tool for expressing the ineffable, a form of communication when words fail or are wholly inadequate. Art challenges the artist by constructing a world in which opposing forces— impulse and control, emotion and thought, ideation and actuality—must cooperate to produce a piece of art. The artist must wrestle an almost untamable creative force for control in order to grant space to its expression. The process of facing and governing this force while conveying it to others makes artistic creation an especially valuable therapeutic tool for the emotionally disturbed.The process of creation and the created product are equally valuable parts of therapeutic art. Creating art requires balancing two aspects of personality that are, in the case of the emotionally disturbed person, especially irreconcilable. Like all artists, the emotionally disturbed person must learn to control and harness the dangerous, unpredictable forces of creation while remaining sufficiently unrestrictive to allow its expression. Balancing these forces in a constructive way while granting full play to both is an important ability to master, one that art therapy teaches particularly well.The emotionally disturbed artist's goal is not the perfect expression of an aesthetic ideal. Yet communicating the mind's content and having it recognized by others is intensely valuable to the disturbed artist's healing. Taking ideas out of the isolation imposed by the mind and reproducing them in a form that can be shared and understood by others releases those ideas from the mind and removes from them some of their power. Using the brush where the pen and voice fail allows others, like the therapist, to recognize, understand, and begin to deconstruct the mind's content.Artistic creation allows emotionally disturbed people to communicate ideas they are unable to express in words, and it provides therapists with an otherwise unobtainable window into the mind. Examination of their artistic pieces reveals an inner world that the self of the disturbed person cannot express another way. Art then becomes a new therapeutic medium through which to understand and address the complex issues that threaten and haunt the disturbed person, and in which to free them.1 The primary purpose of the passage is to______.(A)prove that art therapy has made significant strides in recent decades(B)demonstrate how art therapy can transform nonfunctioning individuals into productive members of society(C)show how art therapy can be beneficial for emotionally disturbed people(D)describe the methods by which artwork can be interpreted by a therapist2 In Line 5 , Paragraph3 "the brush" is used primarily to signify______.(A)the wide variety of artistic equipment(B)the author's preference for art over written communication(C)the process of painting(D)artistic creation3 The passage suggests that the main reason a therapist might use art to work with emotionally disturbed people is that art therapy can______.(A)allow them to address ideas or emotions in a nonverbal way(B)share their innermost thoughts with the public(C)broaden the scope of their social interaction(D)encourage them to cooperate with others4 The author suggests that artwork functions as "window"(Line 2, Paragraph 4)because artwork______.(A)is transparent(B)stifles communication(C)can be extremely fragile(D)allows access to thoughts5 The author's conclusion would be most directly supported by additional information proving that______.(A)art therapists are better able to evaluate the quality of art than regular therapists (B)individuals involved in art programs have more control over their emotions(C)there is a documented connection between creativity and attention span(D)painting relieves some symptoms of arthritis5 Since time immemorial, countless scholars have asked the question: What is beauty? As philosophers engage in weighty discourses, designers update the latest fashions, and artists create their masterpieces, what is considered beautiful changes at an alarming pace. Fifty years ago, the full-figured Marilyn Monroe embodied the American aesthetic value; today, a legion of Hollywood actresses vastly different in appearance from Marilyn's have taken her place. However, aesthetic values not only differ from generation to generation, but do so along cultural lines as well. The conventions that govern painting and music vary greatly from East to West. Often, what is considered disgusting to one civilization is the pinnacle of aesthetic appeal in another. Thus, when left to the sphere of human design, the search for an absolute definition of beauty remains an elusive one at best.As fundamental physicists, my colleagues and I like to believe that we are involved in a search for a beauty that does not remain uninfluenced by definition; The beauty that we search for is not that which is laid down through the work of people and subject to short-term tastes, but rather that which has been established by Nature. Those not involved with physics tend to think of it as a precise and predictive science—certainly not a field of study fit for the contemplation of the beautiful. Yet, one of physics's greatest gifts is that it allows its students to look past extrinsic appearances into a more overwhelming beauty. As a human being, I am captivated by the visual appeal of a wave crashing on the beach. As a physicist, however, I possess the ability to be captivated by the much deeper beauty of the physical laws that govern such a phenomenon. Where the nonphysicist sees a lovely but inexplicable event, the well-schooled physicist is able to perceive a brilliant design.In truth, since the day that Albert Einstein first proposed the notion that there might be one overarching physical theory that governs the universe, aesthetics has become adriving force in modern physics. What Einstein and we, as his intellectual descendants, have discovered is this;Nature, at its most fundamental level, is beautifully constructed. The remarkable simplicity of the laws that govern the universe is, at times, nothing short of breathtaking. And at every step, as new discoveries and technologies allow us to examine the physical world on deeper and deeper levels, we find that the beauty itself becomes more profound. As Einstein himself said, it would seem more likely that we should find ourselves living in a " chaotic world, in no way graspable through thinking. " Yet here we are, closer than ever to a full understanding of the universe's beautiful clockwork.6 The author mentions Marilyn Monroe in Paragraph 1 in order to______.(A)provide an example of today's standards of beauty(B)discuss her abilities as an actress(C)demonstrate how susceptible aesthetics are to change(D)illustrate that the standard definition of beauty remains constant7 The author's assertion in Lines 7-8, Paragraph 1("what is considered disgusting...in another")suggests that______.(A)cultures are destined to clash(B)many civilizations are prone to disgusting behavior(C)different societies are tied together by an appreciation for physics(D)it is nearly impossible to say what is truly beautiful8 As used in Line 3 Paragraph 2, the phrase "laid down" most nearly means______. (A)rested(B)slept(C)created(D)set9 In the course of outlining the various gifts of physics, the author cites all of the following EXCEPT______.(A)the ability to look for a beauty that is unchanging(B)appreciating the visual beauty of a wave crashing(C)understanding both extrinsic and intrinsic beauty(D)seeing a deeper design in natural events10 In the third paragraph, Albert Einstein's proposal of an "overarching physical theory" suggests that______.(A)the author believes that there is beauty in simplicity(B)the universe is infinitely complex(C)aesthetics has no place in physics(D)the physical world will never be understood rationally11 The author quotes Albert Einstein in Lines 7 - 8 , Paragraph 3 in order to______. (A)detail the way physical laws affect chaos(B)emphasize the scope of Einstein's influence(C)suggest that Einstein might have doubted the beauty of physics(D)stress just how remarkable the order of the universe really is12 The purpose of this passage is to______.(A)discuss the way various cultures assess beauty(B)explain the beauty that is unmasked through an understanding of physics(C)demonstrate the way concepts of beauty change over time(D)finding new relevance for different physical laws12 For eighty years Thomas's family had grown corn on its hundred-acre plot. In his grandfather's day, even in his father's, wheat and timothy were also sown to help feed cattle and pigs. While there had been no animals on the land in Thomas's time, Thomas's father spoke at length about those days, when he himself had been a child. Back then, Thomas's father had dedicated every one of his free hours to taking care of the farm; grinding chop, cleaning up after the animals, mending fences, and performing innumerable other taxing chores. Later, it was just corn, sold to some big company out East that his father said paid them a little less every year. It wasn't about the money though; his father would have made do just enough to keep things going. His concern was family and tradition, the agricultural way of life.During harvest, Thomas would ride on the enormous thresher with his father. In the cabin, above the green sea parting before them, he would listen as his father explained the significance of a life dedicated to agriculture. As Thomas nibbbled on a lunch packed by his mother, his father expounded upon his philosophy that a man must not be separated from the land that provides for him, that the land was very important. He would say, time and again, "A man isn't a man without land to call his own. "He was not an uneducated man, Thomas's father. He had completed high school and probably could have gone to college if he wanted, but he was a man of the earth, and his spirit was tied to the soil. Agriculture was not his profession; it was his passion, one that he tried to seed in the hearts of his three boys. Thomas's two older brothers had little time for farmwork, however. What chores they were not forced to do went undone or were done by Thomas; their energies were focused on cars, dating, and dance halls.Even at a young age, Thomas was able to see in his father's eyes the older man's secret despair. The land that had been in his family for three generations was not valued by the fourth. Not even little Tommy, who always rode in the cabin with him and helped out as much as he was able, would stay and tend the fields. The world had grown too large, and there were too many distractions to lure young men from their homes. Boys these days did not realize they had a home until it was too late.Sitting on the hood of his jeep, Thomas gazed out over dozens of acres of orange survey stakes that covered what was once his family's farm. The house, barn, and silos were all gone, replaced by construction trailers and heavy equipment. The town that layjust five miles up the road had grown into a city, consuming land like a hungry beast. Thomas's father had been the last farmer left in the county, holding out long after the farm became unprofitable. He farmed after his sons left and his wife died; he farmed until his last breath, on principle.Now a highway and several shopping malls were going to take his place, Thomas thought. His brothers both said it was inevitable, that progress cannot be halted. They argued that if the family did not sell the land, the city would claim eminent domain and take it from them for a fraction of what they could get by selling it. Thomas did not feel he had any right to disagree. After all, he had chosen to leave the farm as well, to pursue his education. Though he didn't stand in their way, and though his profit from the lucrative sale was equal to his brothers', Thomas was sure he felt something that they could not. The money didn't matter much to him; he had enough to get by. It was something about the land. Now that he had finally found his way back to it, he was losing it. He was losing his home.13 Which is NOT CORRECT about the farm in Thomas's father's day?(A)Corn, wheat and timothy grown on the farm were sold for profit.(B)Cattle and pigs were raised on the farm.(C)Thomas's father could make both ends meet.(D)Thomas's father spent a lot of time doing farm chores.14 In Line 6 Paragraph 1 the word "taxing" most nearly means______.(A)monetary(B)expensive(C)rejuvenating(D)tiring15 Based on the passage, a thresher(Line 1 , Paragraph 2)is most likely used to______. (A)mend fences(B)harvest crops(C)construct shopping malls(D)plant seeds16 Thomas's father's statement in the last line of Paragraph 2 primarily shows the father to be______.(A)discouraged because he is getting less money for his corn each year(B)overwhelmed by the number of tedious chores he must complete each day(C)convinced that his life as a farmer is worthwhile(D)pleased that his youngest son is with him as he threshes the corn17 The most likely cause of the "secret despair"(Line 1, Paragraph 4)that Thomas sees in his father's eyes is his father's______.(A)sadness that his sons would not care for the family farm in the same way that he had(B)disappointment that Thomas didn't help as much as he could have with the farm chores(C)worry about his sons' preoccupation with cars, dating, and dancing(D)regret that he didn't attend college even though he could have done so18 The description of Thomas's brothers' interest in the last two sentences of Paragraph 3 highlights______.(A)the difference between the brothers as young men and as adults(B)the reasons that Thomas performed the brothers' neglected chores(C)the gap between the brothers' values and those of their father(D)the considerable conflict between the brothers and their father19 An important function of Paragraph 5 is to______.(A)establish that the narrative to this point has been a flashback(B)contrast Thomas's current life with his past life(C)summarize the plot(D)foreshadow Thomas's future20 The last sentence of the passage suggests that Thomas feels______.(A)excited anticipation(B)regretful nostalgia(C)overwhelming despair(D)unaccustomed relief二、句子改错21 Correct the mistakes in the following sentences: underline the wrong parts and put the correct ones in the brackets.

It contains a beautiful little Theatre, newly built; and it is an interesting custom there, to form the chorus of laborers in the marble mines, who are self-taught and sing by ear.

Well, it"s difficult to answer this question, since the terms we would normally use to describe a scientific phenomenon are inadequate here. Astronomers and scientists think that a black hole is a region of space (not a thing) into which matter has fallen and from which nothing can escape not even light. So we can"t see a black hole. A black hole exerts a strong gravitational pull and yet it has no matter. It is only space—or so we think. How can this happen? The theory, is that some stars explode when their density increases to a particular point; they collapse and sometimes a supernova occurs. From Earth, a supernova looks like a very bright lightin the sky which shines even in the daytime. The most convincing evidence of black holes comes from research into binary star systems. Binary stars, as their name suggests, are twin stars whose position in space affects each other. In some binary systems, astronomers have shown that there is an invisible companion star, a "partner" to the one which we can see in the sky. Matter from the one which we can see is being pulled towards the companion star. Could this invisible star, which exerts such a great force, be a black hole? Astronomers have evidence of a few other stars too, which might have black holes as companions.The story of black holes is just beginning. Speculations about them are endless. There might be a massive black hole at the center of our galaxy swallowing up stars at a very rapid rate. Mankind may one day meet this fate. On the other hand, scientists have suggested that very advanced technology could one day make use of the energy of black holes for mankind. These speculations sound like science fiction. But the theory of black holes in space is accepted by many serious scientists and astronomers. They show us a world which operates in a totally different way from our own and they question our most basic experience of space and time.[Key words]supernova 超新星galaxy 银河,星系(分数:60.00)__________________________________________________________________________________________正确答案:()解析:什么是黑洞呢?这个问题很难回答,因为我们把通常用来描述一种科学现象的术语用在这里来解释是不够的。

In the Middle Ages when the feudal lords who inhabited the castles—whose towers may still be seen along the Rhine—concluded to enlarge their domains, to increase their power, their prestige and their wealth they declared war upon one another. But they themselves did not go to war any more than the modem feudal lords, the barons of Wall Street go to war.The feudal barons of the Middle Ages, the economic predecessors of the capitalists of our day, declared all wars. And their miserable serfs fought all the battles. The poor, ignorant serfshad been taught to revere their masters; to believe that when their masters declared war upon one another, it was their patriotic duty to fall upon one another and to cut one another"s throats for the profit and glory of the lords and barons who held them in contempt. And that is war in a nutshell. The master class has always declared the wars; the subject class has always fought the battles. The master class has had all to gain and nothing to lose, while the subject class has had nothing to gain and all to lose—especially their lives.(分数:30.00)__________________________________________________________________________________________正确答案:()解析:纵观历史,战争多是为了侵略和掠夺。
2013年中山大学翻译硕士状元笔记
? A. 《玉台新咏》? B. 《乐府诗集》? C. 《文选》宋代郭茂倩所编。
《乐府诗集》现存100卷,是现存收集乐府歌辞最完备的一部。
主要辑录汉魏到唐、五代的乐府歌辞兼及先秦至唐末的歌谣,共5000多首。
它搜集广泛,各类有总序,每曲有题解。
它是继《诗经?风》之后,一部总括中国古代乐府歌辞的著名诗歌总集。
94“食色性也”到底是什么意思?B? A. 吃和穿是人类最基本的需求? B. 食欲和性欲是人性的一部分? C. 内在和外在的修养构成了人性“食色性也”经常被人误认为是孟子说的。
其实这句话虽然出自《孟子?告子上》,却不是孟子说的。
告子是一位年轻的哲学家,他对孟子的“人性善”观点很不满意,就找上门与孟子辩论。
过程中告子说了句“食色,性也”,意思是食欲和性欲都是人的本性。
对于二千多年前的这场有关人性本质的辩论,最终谁胜谁负其实并不是很重要。
重要的是这句话被堂而皇之地记录在儒家的经典著作《孟子》之中,而且从此之后也成了古人论述食欲和性欲本质的经典。
95“蛛丝马迹”的“马”究竟指什么?C? A. 马? B. 蚂蚁? C. 灶马此处的“马”并非真正的“马”,而是昆虫中的“灶马”。
故蛛丝马迹,也可写作“蛛丝虫迹”。
清人夏敬渠《野叟曝言》七十九回:“蛛丝虫迹,屋漏蝙涎,不即不离,有意无意,其妙如何”)。
96我国古代“六礼七出”中的“七出”指的是什么?C? A. 婚姻成立条件? B. 婚姻解除条件? C. 婚姻持续基础七出是:一是无子,二是淫,三是不顺父母,四是口多言,五是盗窃,六是妒忌,七上恶疾,这是婚姻解除的条件。
97唐代被称“昆仑奴”的黑人奴仆来自哪里?C? A. 非洲大陆? B. 昆仑山脉脚下? C. 马来半岛以南的海岛上我国的许多地方都出土了唐代黑人俑20世纪40年代西安地区出土的唐代黑人俑引起了学术界的广泛关注,随后唐代黑人俑被不断发现。
有教授对此问题进行研究,研究仔细分析了非洲黑人和南海黑人的区别,尽管他们都体黑卷发,但两者在外形上有差异。
