E-weekly Un it 1 Why mom gets roses, and dad a c o llec t c all(为什么妈妈得到玫瑰,而爸爸得到的却是“对方付费电话”)美国人在母亲节和父亲节都会庆祝。
然而,在这两个场合中,父亲和母亲从孩子那儿收到的礼物却不相同。
这篇文章研究了差异背后的问题。

许多父亲都知道,父亲节是“对方付费电话”最多的一天,也是父亲们骄傲地展示一条新的、会在暗处发光的足球领带的最多的一天。

“I didn't expect the book to sell in the first place。
I was hoping for a quick and merciful death at the hands of reviewers but atthe same time I sort of hoped that maybe someone would like it enough to giveme encouragement。
"“To Kill a Mockingbird” may notbe the Great American Novel. But it’s likely the most universally known work offiction by an American author over the past 70 years. Lee was cited for hersubtle, graceful style and gift for explaining the world through a child's eye,but the secret to the novel’s ongoing appeal was also in how many books thissingle book contained。

Translate the passage in SECTION 1 and your choic1.【Passage 1】Jane Goodall was already on a London dock in March 1957 when she realized that her passport was missing. In just a few hours, she was due to depart on her first trip to Africa. A school friend had moved to a farm outside Nairobi and, knowing Goodall’s childhood dream was to live among the African wildlife, invited her to stay with the family for a while. Goodall, then 22, saved for two years to pay for her passage to Kenya: waitressing, doing secretarial work, temping at the post office in her hometown, Bournemouth, on England’s southern coast. Now all this was for naught, it seemed.It’s hard not to wonder how subsequent events in her life — rather consequential as they have turned out to be to conservation, to science, to our sense of ourselves as a species — might have unfolded differently had someone not found her passport, along with an itinerary from Cook’s, the travel agency, folded inside, and delivered it to the Cook’s office. An agency representative, documents in hand, found her on the dock. “Incredible,” Goodalltold me last month, recalling that day. “Amazing.”Within two months of her arrival, Goodall met the paleontologist Louis Leakey — Nairobi was a small town for its white population in those days — and he immediately offered her a job at the natural-history museum where he was curator. He spent much of the next three years testing her capacity for repetitive work.He believed in a hypothesis first put forth by Charles Darwin that humans and chimpanzees share an evolutionary ancestor. Close study of chimpanzees in the wild, he thought, might tell us something about**mon progenitor. He was, in other words, looking for someone to live among Africa’s wild animals. One night, he told Goodall that he knew just the place where she could do it: Gombe Stream Chimpanzee Reserve, in the British colony of Tanganyika (now Tanzania).In July 1960, Goodall boarded a boat and after a few hours motoring over the warm, deep waters of Lake Tanganyika, she stepped onto the pebbly beach at Gombe.Her finding, published in Nature in 1964, that chimpanzees use tools — extracting insects from a termite mound with leaves of grass —drastically and forev er altered humanity’s understanding of itself; man was no longer the natural world’s only user of tools.After two and a half decades of living out her childhood dream, Goodall made an abrupt career shift, from scientist to conservationist.SSS_TEXT_QUSTI分值: 30答案:1957年3月,当珍妮•古道尔(Jane Goodall)在伦敦码头候船时,她发现护照不见了。

2016年考研英语一试题翻译SectionⅠ在柬埔寨,选择配偶对于年轻男性来说是件很复杂的事。
这不仅可能需要男女双方的父母朋友参与,同时也可能需要媒人的撮合。
年轻的成年男子可以自己确定一个合适的配偶,然后请求父母安排与对方家人商讨婚事,或者男方的父母为孩子挑好配偶,在此过程中,孩子几乎没有话语权。
在理论上,女方可以拒绝父母为其选择的配偶。
结婚对象选定之后,双方家庭就会开始调查了解对方,以确保自己的孩子嫁人或迎娶的是一户好人家。
传统婚礼持续的时间长且丰富多彩。
以前,婚礼仪式会持续三天,但到了20世纪80年代时,更为常见的是持续一天半。
佛教僧侣主持简短的讲道仪式,并念诵祝福的祷告文。
婚礼上的活动有仪式性的剪发,将在圣水中浸湿的棉线缠绕在新人的手腕上,以及婚姻幸福并受尊重的夫妇围成一圈,传递蜡烛为新人的结合祈福。
新婚夫妇按照传统会搬进女方父母家中与他们同住长达一年,直到他们能在附近建造一座新房子为止。
(在柬埔寨)离婚是合法且容易实现的,但并不普遍。
离过婚的人会遭受一些非议。
离婚时,夫妻双方的婚前财产仍归自己所有,而共同拥有的财产则会平均分配。
离异者可以再婚,但性别歧视在此时却会显现出来:离异的男性无需等待一定的时间就可以再婚,但女性则必须等待10个月才可以再婚。
SectionⅡText 1以全球时尚创新者身份为荣的法国判定其时尚业已不再拥有定义女性形体美的绝对权。
其立法机关上周初步通过了一项法规,规定雇用超瘦T台模特将会被定为犯罪。
议会还同意取缔那些通过宣传极端节食来“教唆过瘦身材”的网站。
这些措施有几个振奋人心的动机。
这些措施表明美不应该以最终损害健康为代价的外表来定义。
这是一个开端。
对超瘦模特的禁令似乎不仅仅是为了保护模特使其避免(为追求瘦而将自己)饿死——一些模特已死于饥饿。
这项禁令告知时尚业必须为其传递给女性(尤其是十几岁的女孩)的信号承担责任,这种信号涉及她们必须用以决定其个体价值的社会标尺。

ANSWER SHEET.(40points)Text1France,which prides itself as the global innovator of fashion,has decided its fashion industry has lost an absolute right to define physical beauty for women.Its lawmakers gave preliminary approval last week to a law that would make it a crime to employ ultra-thin models on runways.The parliament also agreed to ban websites that“incite excessive thinness”by promoting extreme dieting.Such measures have a couple of uplifting motives.They suggest beauty should not be defined by looks that end up impinging on health.That's a start.And the ban on ultra-thin models seems to go beyond protecting models from starving themselves to death-as some have done.It tells the fashion industry that it must take responsibility for the signal it sends women,especially teenage girls,about the social tape-measure they must use to determine their individual worth.The bans,if fully enforced,would suggest to women(and many men)that they should not let others be arbiters of their beauty.And perhaps faintly,they hint that people should look to intangible qualities like character and intellect rather than dieting their way to size zero or wasp-waist physiques.The French measures,however,rely too much on severe punishment to change a culture that still regards beauty as skin-deep-and bone-showing.Under the law,using a fashion model that does not meet a government-defined index of body mass could result in a$85,000fine and six months in prison.The fashion industry knows it has an inherent problem in focusing on material adornment and idealized body types.In Denmark,the United States,and a few other countries,it is trying to set voluntary standards for models and fashion images that rely more on peer pressure for enforcement.In contrast to France’s actions,Denmark’s fashion industry agreed last month on rules and sanctions regarding the age,health,and other characteristics of models.The newly revised Danish Fashion Ethical Charter clearly states:“We are aware of and take responsibility for the impact the fashion industry has on body ideals, especially on young people.”The charter’s main tool of enforcement is to deny access for designers and modeling agencies to Copenhagen Fashion Week(CFW),which is run by the Danish Fashion Institute.But in general it relies on a name-and-shame method of compliance.Relying on ethical persuasion rather than law to address the misuse of body ideals may be the best step.Even better would be to help elevate notions of beauty beyond the material standards of a particular industry.21.According to the first paragraph,what would happen in France?[A]New runways would be constructed.[B]Physical beauty would be redefined.[C]Websites about dieting would thrive.[D]The fashion industry would decline.22.The phrase“impinging on”(Line2,Para.2)is closest in meaning to_____.[A]heightening the value of[B]indicating the state of[C]losing faith in[D]doing harm to23.Which of the following is true of the fashion industry?[A]New standards are being set in Denmark.[B]The French measures have already failed.[C]Models are no longer under peer pressure.[D]Its inherent problems are getting worse.24.A designer is most likely to be rejected by CFW for_____.[A]pursuing perfect physical conditions.[B]caring too much about models’character.2016年考研英语一真题及大师兄版解析29.The author holds that George Osborne’s preference_____.[A]reveals a strong prejudice against urban areas.[B]shows his disregard for the character of rural areas.[C]stresses the necessity of easing the housing crisis.[D]highlights his firm stand against lobby pressure.30.In the last paragraph,the author shows his appreciation of_____.[A]the size of population in Britain[B]the political life in today’s Britain[C]the enviable urban lifestyle in Britain[D]the town-and-country planning in BritainText3“There is one and only one social responsibility of business,”wrote Milton Friedman,a Nobel Prize-winning economist,“That is,to use its resources and engage in activities designed to increase its profits.”But even if you accept Friedman’s premise and regard corporate social responsibility(CSR)policies as a waste of shareholders’money,things may not be absolutely clear-cut.New research suggests that CSR may create monetary value for companies—at least when they are prosecuted for corruption.The largest firms in America and Britain together spend more than$15billion a year on CSR,according to an estimate by EPG,a consulting firm.This could add value to their businesses in three ways.First,consumers may take CSR spending as a“signal”that a company’s products are of high quality.Second,customers may be willing to buy a company’s products as an indirect way to donate to the good causes it helps.And third,through a more diffuse“halo effect,”whereby its good deeds earn it greater consideration from consumers and others.Previous studies on CSR have had trouble differentiating these effects because consumers can be affected by all three.A recent study attempts to separate them by looking at bribery prosecutions under America’s Foreign Corrupt Practices Act(FCPA).It argues that since prosecutors do not consume a company’s products as part of their investigations,they could be influenced only by the halo effect.The study found that,among prosecuted firms,those with the most comprehensive CSR programmes tended to get more lenient penalties.Their analysis ruled out the possibility that it was firms’political influence,rather than their CSR stand,that accounted for the leniency:Companies that contributed more to political campaigns did not receive lower fines.In all,the study concludes that whereas prosecutors should only evaluate a case based on its merits,they do seem to be influenced by a company’s record in CSR.“We estimate that either eliminating a substantial labour-rights concern,such as child labour,or increasing corporate giving by about20%results in fines that generally are40%lower than the typical punishment for bribing foreign officials,”says one researcher.Researchers admit that their study does not answer the question of how much businesses ought to spend on CSR.Nor does it reveal how much companies are banking on the halo effect,rather than the other possible benefits,when they decide their do-gooding policies.But at least they have demonstrated that when companies get into trouble with the law,evidence of good character can win them a less costly punishment.31.The author views Milton Friedman’s statement about CSR with_____.[A]tolerance[B]skepticism[C]uncertainty[D]approval32.According to Paragraph2,CSR helps a company by_____.[A]guarding it against malpractices[B]protecting it from consumers[C]winning trust from consumers[D]raising the quality of its products33.The expression“more lenient”(Line2,Para.4)is closest in meaning to_____.[A]more effective[B]less controversial[C]less severe[D]more lasting34.When prosecutors evaluate a case,a company’s CSR record_____.[A]legacy businesses are becoming outdated.[B]cautiousness facilitates problem-solving.[C]aggressiveness better meets challenges.[D]traditional luxuries can stay unaffected.40.Which of the following would be the best title of the text?_____.[A]Shift to Online Newspapers All at Once[B]Cherish the Newspapers Still in Your Hand[C]Make Your Print Newspapers a Luxury Good[D]Keep Your Newspapers Forever in FashionPart BDirections:Read the following text and answer the questions by choosing the most suitable subheading from the list A-G for each of the numbered paragraphs(41-45).There are two extra subheadings.Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET.(10point)[A]Create a new image of yourself[B]Have confidence in yourself[C]Decide if the time is right[D]Understand the context[E]Work with professionals[F]Make it efficient[G]Know your goalsNo matter how formal or informal the work environment,the way you present yourself has an impact.This is especially true in the first impressions.According to research from Princeton University,people assess your competence,trustworthiness,and likeability in just a tenth of a second,solely based on the way you look.The difference between today’s workplace and the“dress for success”era is that the range of options is so much broader.Norms have evolved and fragmented.In some settings,red sneakers or dress T-shirts can convey status;in others not so much.Plus,whatever image we present is magnified by social-media services like LinkedIn.Chances are,your headshots are seen much more often now than a decade or two lennials,it seems,face the paradox of being the least formal generation yet the most conscious of style and personal branding. It can be confusing.So how do we navigate this?How do we know when to invest in an upgrade?And what’s the best way to pull off one that enhances our goals?Here are some tips:41.__________________As an executive coach,I’ve seen image upgrades be particular helpful during transitions—when looking for a new job,stepping into a new or more public role,or changing work environments.If you’re in a period of change or just feeling stuck and in a rut,now may be a good time.If you’re not sure,ask for honest feedback from trusted friends,colleagues and professionals.Look for cues about how others perceive you.Maybe there’s no need for an upgrade and that’s OK.42.__________________Get clear on what impact you’re hoping to have.Are you looking to refresh your image or pivot it?For one person,the goal may be to be taken more seriously and enhance their professional image.For another,it may be to be perceived as more approachable,or more modern and stylish.For someone moving from finance to advertising, maybe they want to look more“SoHo.”(It’s OK to use characterizations like that.)43.__________________Look at your work environment like an anthropologist.What are the norms of your environment?What conveys status?Who are your most important audiences?How do the people you respect and look up to present themselves?The better you understand the cultural context,the more control you can have over your impact.44.__________________Enlist the support of professionals and share with them your goals and context.Hire a personal stylist,or use the free styling service of a store like J.Crew.Try a hair stylist instead of a barber.Work with a professional photographer instead of your spouse or friend.It’s not as expensive as you might think.45.__________________The point of a style upgrade isn’t to become more vain or to spend more time fussing over what to wear. Instead,use it as an opportunity to reduce decision fatigue.Pick a standard work uniform or a few go-to options. Buy all your clothes at once with a stylist instead of shopping alone,one article of clothing at a time.Section III TranslationDirections:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese.Your translation should be written clearly on the ANSWER SHEET.(10points)Mental health is our birthright.(46)We don’t have to learn how to be mentally healthy;it is built into us in the same way that our bodies know how to heal a cut or mend,a broken bone.Mental health can’t be learned,only reawakened.It is like immune system of the body,which under stress or through lack of nutrition or exercise can be weakened,but which never leaves us.When we don’t understand the value of mental health and we don’t know how to gain access to it,mental health will remain hidden from us.(47)Our mental health doesn’t go anywhere; like the sun behind a cloud,it can be temporarily hidden from view,but it is fully capable of being restored in an instant.Mental health is the seed that contains self-esteem–confidence in ourselves and an ability to trust in our common sense.It allows us to have perspective on our lives—the ability to not take ourselves too seriously,to laugh at ourselves,to see the bigger picture,and to see that things will work out.It’s a form of innate or unlearned optimism.(48)Mental health allows us to view others with sympathy if they are having troubles,with kindness if they are in pain,and with unconditional love no matter who they are.Mental health is the source of creativity for solving problems,resolving conflict,making our surroundings more beautiful,managing our home life,or coming up with a creative business idea or invention to make our lives easier.It gives us patience for ourselves and toward others as well as patience while driving,catching a fish,working on our car,or raising a child.It allows us to see the beauty that surrounds us each moment in nature,in culture,in the flow of our daily lives.(49)Although mental health is the cure-all for living our lives,it is perfectly ordinary as you will see that it has been there to direct you through all your difficult decisions.It has been available even in the most mundane of life situations to show you right from wrong,good from bad,friend from foe.Mental health has commonly been called conscience,instinct,wisdom,common sense,or the inner voice.We think of it simply as a healthy and helpful flow of intelligent thought.(50)As you will come to see,knowing that mental health is always available and knowing to trust it allow us to slow down to the moment and live life happily.SectionⅣWritingPart A51.Directions:Suppose you are a librarian in your university.Write a notice of about100words providing the newly-enrolled international students with relevant information about the library.You should write neatly on the ANSWER SHEET.Do not sign your own name at the end of the e“Li Ming”instead.Do not write the address.(10points)Part B52.Directions:Write an essay of160-200words based on the following pictures.In your essay you should1)describe the drawing briefly,2)explain its intended meaning,and3)give your comments.You should write neatly on the ANSWER SHEET.(20points)2016年全国硕士研究生入学统一考试英语一试题大师兄版参考答案Section I Use of English(10points)1.A B C D2.A B C D3.A B C D4.A B C D5.A B C D6.A B C D7.A B C D8.A B C D9.A B C D10.A B C D11.A B C D12.A B C D13.A B C D14.A B C D15.A B C D16.A B C D17.A B C D18.A B C D19.A B C D20.A B C DSection II Reading Comprehension(50points)Part A(40points)21.A B C D22.A B C D23.A B C D24.A B C D25.A B C D26.A B C D27.A B C D28.A B C D29.A B C D30.A B C D31.A B C D32.A B C D33.A B C D34.A B C D35.A B C D36.A B C D37.A B C D38.A B C D39.A B C D40.A B C DPart B(10points)41.A B C D E F G42.A B C D E F G43.A B C D E F G44.A B C D E F G45.A B C D E F G注:第29题有争议,大师兄版选B,新东方版、沪江版选A。

Our lives would be the same.We would have to use bikes, horses, or our feet to get to places. And wecouldn''t go as far as we are used to going. But we do have cars. With cars, people can come and go as they please. They can work far from home. Many people live in the country. But they work in the city. Most of them get there in cars. This means that there are a lot of cars on the road.Are there too many cars on the road? Some people think so. So they are asking that we take trains and buses. But not everyone can do this. Some people must take their cars. This is because no trains or buses go where they have to go. Maybe other people could go to work with them. Then there wouldn''t be so many cars on the road.What will our lives be like in times to come? Maybe we won''t need cars so much. Maybe more of us will work at home. Maybe trains and buses will go to more places. Then more people will be in them. This will mean more room on our streets and roads.It would be nice if people walk more. They might like to step along a street or road. They would not get far very fast. But they would have the time to look around them. Who knows? They might even feel better, too!1、What's not the possible reason why there are a lot of cars on the road?A、Because everyone likes to drive his own car to do whatever he likes. ?B、Because the number of trains and buses is small.C、Because many people who live in the country go to work in cars in the city.D、Because it is more convenient for people to go to places in cars than other means.2、According to the author, which of the following is not the reason why thenumber of cars willbe reduced in the future?A、More people will work at home.B、Trains and buses will go to more places.C、More people will take buses and trains.D、People won't need so many cars.3、It can be inferred from the passage that __.A、the author thinks that people who are in the city should not live in the countryB、the author thinks that there should be more trains and buses which should go to more placesC、the author wishes that the number of cars would be reduced so that there will be more room on the streets and roadsD、the authors believe that more walk does good to health4、What does the underlined word "please" here mean?A、to goB、to meanD、to love5、What's the writer's opinion in this passage?A、We should use more carsB、We should use fewer cars.C、We should not use carsD、We should take good care of cars.2、Your mobile phone( ⼿机) rings, and instead of the usual electronic signals, it's playing your favorite music. A friend sends you favorite song to cheer you up. One day, a record company might forward new records and music videos to your phone.The mobile business is getting into the music business. For the moment, the interest is in pleasant ring tones, but some companies are hoping to take full advantage of the next generation of mobile phone --- all-purpose gadgets ( ⼩玩意⼉) that blend phone, personal stereo, video player and Internet browser into one.Finally, record companies might send new records and videos to fans who register their numbers.The fans could pass music or songs along to friends--- a kind of musical trading card. Unlike Internet tracks, mobile downloads would be easy for recordcompanies to control, said former record industry official Ralph Simon, who is now chairman of Yourmobile, based in Santa Monica, California."If you pass a song along to other phones through a network, each phone can be charged,"said Simon."It's like going through a toll gate ( 收费站). There's more possibility for copyright control than there is on the Internet."Massachusetts-based Converse is offering a service in Portugal and theNetherlands that lets people record tunes on their voice mail or send music as presents to friends. Finally, people might be able to sing karaoke and pass them along. The company is sure that people will want to use music to reach out and touch someone.1、The underlined word “ blend” in the second paragraph most probably means( )A、sendB、becomeC、mixD、compare2、Record companies ( ) the idea of passing songs and music along mobilephones.A、are worried aboutB、are interested inC、try hard to stopD、take no notice of3、According to Ralph Simon, it would be easier to ( ) through mobile phonenetwork than through the Internet.C、pars along songs and musicD、send voice maid4、"Massachusetts- based Converse" in the six paragraph probably refers to ( ) ?A、a personB、a city in IsraelC、a state of USAD、a company5、All the following are true except( )A、The mobile companies become involved in music businessB、The mobile phone might serve as a stereo, a video play as well as an internet browserC、Your friend might sing karaoke and send it to your phoneD、The mobile network is better than the internet三、填空题 (共 10 题、0 / 20 分 )1、As long as you return the money promptly.

TranslationDirections:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (10 points)Mental health is our birthright. (46) We don’t have to learn how to be mentally healthy ;it it built into us that our bodies know how to heal a cut or mend a broken bone. Mental health can’t be learned, only reawakened. It is like the immune system of the body, which under stress or through lack of nutrition or exercise can be weakened, but which never leaves us. When we don't understand the value of mental health and we don't know how to gain access to it, mental health will remain hidden from us. (47) Our mental health doesn’t really go anywhere; like the sun behind a cloud, it can be temporarily hidden from view, but it is fully capable of being restored in an instant.Mental health is the seed that contains self-esteem - confidence in ourselves and an ability to trust in our common sense. It allows us to have perspective on our lives - the ability to not take ourselves too seriously, to laugh at ourselves, to see the bigger picture, and to see that things will work out. It’s a form of innate or unlearned optimism. (48) Mental health allows us to view others with sympathy if they are having troubles ,with kindness if they are in pain,and with unconditional love no matter who they are. Mental health is the source of creativity for soving problems, resolving conflict, making our surroundings more beautiful,managing our home life, or coming up with a creative business idea or invention to make our lives easier. It gives us patience for ourselves and toward others as well as patience while driving,catching a fish,working on our car,or raising a child. It allows us to see the beauty that surrounds us each moment in nature,in culture,in the flow of our daily lives.(49)Although mental health is the cure-all for living our lives,it is perfectly ordinary as you will see that it has been there to direct you through all your difficult decisions.It has been available even in the most mundane of life situations to show you right from wrong,good from bad,friend from foe.Mental health has commonly been called conscience,instinct,wisdom,common sense,or the inner voice.We think of it simply as a healthy and helpful flow of intelligent thought .(50) As you will come to see ,knowing that mental heath is always available and knowing to trust it allow us to slow down to the moment and live life happily.46.We don’t have to learn how to be mentally healthy; it is built into us in the same way that our bodies know how to heal a cut or mend a broken bone.[句子结构]分号连接的两个并列句,第一个并列句主干是 We don’t have to learn ,how引导宾语从句做learn的宾语,第二个并列句主干是it is built into us in the same way,that引导定语从句修饰先行词way,that定语从句中主干是our bodies know,how引导宾语从句做know的宾语。

Here was abundant fuel and lumber.46) It is also the reason why when we try to describe music with words, all we can do is articulate our reactions to it, and not grasp music itself.47)By all accounts he was a freethinking person, and a courageous one, and I find courage an essential quality for the understanding, let alone the performance, of his works.48) Beethoven’s habit of increasing the volume with an extreme intensity and then abruptly following it with a sudden soft passage was only rarely used by composers before him.49) Especially significant was his view of freedom, which, for him, was associated with the rights and responsibilities of the individual: he advocated freedom of thought and of personal expression.50)One could interpret much of the work of Beethoven by saying that suffering is inevitable, but the courage to fight it renders life worth living.46) Yet when one looks at the photographs of the garden created by the homeless, it strikes one that , for all their diversity of styles, these gardens speak of various other fundamental urges, beyond that of decoration and creative expression.47) A sacred place of peace, however crude it may be, is a distinctly human need, as opposed to shelter, which is a distinctly animal need.48)The gardens of the homeless which are in effect homeless gardens introduce from into an urban environment where it either didn’t exist or was not discernible as such. In so doing they give composure to a segment of the inarticulate environment in which they take their stand.49) Most of us give into a demoralization of spirit which we usually blame on some psychological conditions, until one day we find ourselves in garden and feel the expression vanish as if by magic.50) It is this implicit or explicit reference to nature that fully justifies the use of word garden though in a “liberated” sense, to describe these synthetic constructions.46) In physics, one approach takes this impulse for unification to its extreme, and seeks a theory of everything—a single generative equation for all we see.47) Here, Darwinism seems to offer justification for it all humans share common origins it seems reasonable to suppose that cultural diversity could also be traced to more constrained beginnings.48) To filter out what is unique from what is shared might enable us to understand how complex cultural behavior arose and what guides it in evolutionary or cognitive terms.49) The second, by Joshua Greenberg, takes a more empirical approach to universality identifying traits (particularly in word order) shared by many language which are considered to represent biases that result from cognitive constraints.50) Chomsky’s grammar should show patterns of language change that are independent of the family tree or the pathway tracked through it.46)Allen’s contribution was to take an assumption we all share-that because we are not robots we therefore control our thoughts-and reveal its erroneous nature.47) While we may be able to sustain the illusion of control through the conscious mind alone, in reality we are continually faced with a question: “Why cannot I make myself do this or achieve that?”48) This seems a justification for neglect of those in need, and a rationalization of exploitation, of the superiority of those at the top and the inferiority of those at the bottom.49) Circumstances seem to be designed to bring out the best in us and if we feel that we have been “wronged” then we are unlikely to begin a conscious effort to escape from our situation.50)The upside is the possibilities contained in knowing that everything is up to us; where before we were experts in the array of limitations, now we become authorities of what is possible.46) Scientists jumped to the rescue with some distinctly shaky evidence to the effect that insects would eat us up if birds failed to control them. the evidence had to be economic in order to be valid.47) But we have at least drawn near the point of admitting that birds should continue as a matter of intrinsic right, regardless of the presence or absence of economic advantage to us.48) Time was when biologists somewhat over worded the evidence that these creatures preserve the health of game by killing the physically weak, or that they prey only on "worthless" species.49) In Europe, where forestry is ecologically more advanced, the non-commercial tree species are recognized as members of native forest community, to be preserved as such, within reason.50) It tends to ignore, and thus eventually to eliminate, many elements in the land community that lack commercial value, but that are essential to its healthy functioning.46) It may be said that the measure of the worth of any social institution is its effect in enlarging and improving experience; but this effect is not a part of its original motive.47) Only gradually was the by-product of the institution noted, and only more gradually still was this effect considered as a directive factor in the conduct of the institution.48) While it is easy to ignore in our contact with them the effect of our acts upon their disposition, it is not so easy as in dealing with adults.49) Since our chief business with them is to enable them to share in a common life we cannot help considering whether or no we are forming the powers which will secure this ability.50) We are thus led to distinguish, within the broad educational process which we have been so far considering, a more formal kind of education -- that of direct tuition or schooling.46)He believes that this very difficulty may have had the compensating advantage of forcing him to think long and intently about every sentence, and thus enabling him to detect errors in reasoning and in his own observations.47) He asserted, also, that his power to follow a long and purely abstract train of thought was very limited, for which reason he felt certain that he never could have succeeded with mathematics.48)On the other hand, he did not accept as well founded the charge made by some of his critics that, while he was a good observer, he had no power of reasoning.49) He adds humbly that perhaps he was "superior to the common run of men in noticing things which easily escape attention, and in observing them carefully."50)Darwin was convinced that the loss of these tastes was not only a loss of happiness, but might possibly be injurious to the intellect, and more probably to the moral character.46) Traditionally, legal learning has been viewed in such institutions as the special preserve of lawyers rather than a necessary part of the intellectual equipment of an educated person.47) On the other, it links these concepts to everyday realities in a manner which is parallel to the links journalists forge on a daily basis as they cover and comment on the news.48) But the idea that the journalist must understand the law more profoundly than an ordinary citizen rests on an understanding of the established conventions and special responsibilities of the news media.49) In fact, it is difficult to see how journalists who do not have a clear preps of the basic features of the Canadian Constitution can do a competent job on political stories.50) While comment and reaction from lawyers may enhance stories, it is preferable for journalists to rely on their own notions of significance and make their own judgments.46) I shall define him as an individual who has elected as his primary duty and pleasure in life the activity of thinking in Socratic(苏格拉底) way about moral problems.47) His function is analogous to that of a judge, who must accept the obligation of revealing in as obvious a matter as possible the course of reasoning which led him to his decision.48) I have excluded him because, while his accomplishments may contribute to the solution of moral problems, he has not been charged with the task of approaching any but the factual aspects of those problems.49)But his primary task is not to think about the moral code, which governs his activity, any more than a businessman is expected to dedicate his energies to an exploration of rules of conduct in business.50)They may teach very well and more than earn their salaries, but most of them make little or no independent reflections on human problems which involve moral judgment.46) Television is one of the means by which these feelings are created and conveyed-and perhaps never before has it served to much to connect different peoples and nations as is the recent events in Europe.47) In Europe, as elsewhere multi-media groups have been increasingly successful groups which bring together television, radio newspapers, magazines and publishing houses that work in relation to one another.48) This alone demonstrates that the television business is not an easy world to survive in a fact underlined by statistics that show that out of eighty European television networks no less than 50% took a loss in 1989.49) Crea ting a “European identity” that respects the different cultures and traditions which go to make up the connecting fabric of the Old continent is no easy task and demands a strategic choice - that of producing programs in Europe for Europe.50)In dealing with a challenge on such a scale, it is no exaggeration to say “Unity we stand, divided we fall” -and if I had to choose a slogan it would be “Unity in our diversity.”61) The Greeks assumed that the structure of language had some connection with the process of thought, which took root in Europe long before people realized how diverse languages could be.62) We are obliged to them because some of these languages have since vanished, as the peoples who spoke them died out or became assimilated and lost their native languages.63) The newly described languages were often so strikingly different from the well studied languages of Europe and Southeast Asia that some scholars even accused Boas and Sapir of fabricating their data Native American languages are indeed different, so much so in fact that Navajo could be used by the US military as a code during World War II to send secret messages.64) Being interested in the relationship of language and thought, Whorf developed the idea that the structure of language determines the structure of habitual thought in a society.65) Whorf came to believe in a sort of linguistic determinism which, in its strongest form, states that language imprisons the mind, and that the grammatical patterns in a language can produce far-reaching consequences for the culture of a society.61) Furthermore, humans have the ability to modify the environment in which they live, thus subjecting all other life forms to their own peculiar ideas and fancies.62) Social science is that branch of intellectual enquiry which seeks to study humans and their endeavors in the same reasoned, orderly, systematic, and dispassioned manner that natural scientists use for the study of natural phenomena.63) The emphasis on data gathered first-hand, combined with a cross-cultural perspective brought to the analysis of cultures past and present, makes this study a unique and distinctly important social science.64) Tylor defined culture as “...that complex whole which includes belief, art, morals, law, custom, and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man as a member of society.”65) Thus, the anthropological concept of “culture,” like the concept of “set” in mathematics, is an abstract concept which makes possible immense amounts of concrete research and understanding.61) One difficulty is that almost all of what is called behavioral science continues to trace behavior to states of mind, feelings, traits of character, human nature, and so on.62) The behavioral sciences have been slow to change partly because the explanatory items often seem to be directly observed and partly because other kinds of explanations have been hard to find.63) The role of natural selection in evolution was formulated only a little more than a hundred years ago, and the selective role of the environment in shaping and maintaining the behavior of the individual is only beginning to be recognized and studied.64) They are the possessions of the autonomous (self-governing) man of traditional theory, and they are essential to practices in which a person is held responsible for his conduct and given credit for his achievements. 65) Until these issues are resolved, a technology of behavior will continue to be rejected, and with it possibly the only way to solve our problems.71) There will be television chat shows hosted by robots, and cars with pollution monitors that will disable them when they offend.72) Children will play with dolls equipped with personality chips, computers with in-built personalities will be regarded as workmates rather than tools, relaxation will be in front of smell-television, and digital age will have arrived.73) Pearson has pieced together the work of hundreds of researchers around the world to produce a unique millennium technology calendar that gives the latest dates when we can expect hundreds of key breakthroughs and discoveries to take place.74) But that, Pearson points out, is only the start of man-machine integration: “It will be the beginning of the long process of integration that will ultimately lead to a fully electronic human before the end of the next century."75) And home appliances will also become so smart that controlling and operating them will result in the breakout of a new psychological disorder--kitchen rage.71)There will be television chat shows hosted by robots and cars with pollution monitors that will disable them when they offend.72) Children will play with dolls equipped with personality chips computers with in-built personalities will be regarded as workmates rather than tools relaxation will be in front of smell-television and digital age will have arrived.73)Owing to the remarkable development in mass-communications,people everywhere are feeling new wants and are being exposed to new customs and ideas,while governments are often forced to introduce still further innovations for the reasons given above.74) But that, Pearson points out, is only the start of man-machine integration:“It will be the beginning of the long process of integration that will ultimately lead to a fully electronic human before the end of the next century.”75) And home appliances will also become so smart that controlling and operating them will result in the breakout of a new psychological disorder kitchen rage.71) While there are almost as many definitions of history as there are historians,modern practice most closely conforms to one that sees history as the attempt to recreate and explain the significant events of the past.72) Interest in historical methods has arisen less through external challenge to the validity of history as an intellectual discipline and more from internal quarrels among historians themselves.73) During this transfer,traditional historical methods were augmented by additional methodologies designed to interpret the new forms of evidence in the historical study.74) There is no agreement whether methodology refers to the concepts peculiar to historical work in general or to the research techniques appropriate to the various branches of historical inquiry.75) It applies equally to traditional historians who view history as only the external and internal criticism of sources. And to social science historians who equate their activity with specific techniques.71) But even more important,it was the farthest that scientists had been able to look into the past,for what they were seeing were the patterns and structures that existed 15 billion years ago.72) The existence of the giant clouds was virtually required for the Big Bang,first put forward in the 1920s,to maintain its reign as the dominant explanation of the cosmos.73) Astrophysicists working with ground-based detectors at the South Pole and balloon-borne instruments are closing in on such structures,and may report their findings soon.74) If the small hot spots look as expected,that will be a triumph for yet another scientific idea,a refinement of the Big Bang called the inflationary universe theory.75) Odd though it sounds,cosmic inflation is a scientifically plausible consequence of some respected ideas in elementary-particle physics,and many astrophysicists have been convinced for the better part of a decade that it is true.71) Actually,it isn’t,because it assumes that there is an agreed account of human rights,which is something the world does not have.72) Some philosophers argue that rights exist only within a social contract,as part of an exchange of duties and entitlements.73) It leads the discussion to extremes at the outset: it invites you to think that animals should be treated either with the consideration humans extend to other humans,or with no consideration at all.74) Arguing from the view that humans are different from animals in every relevant respect,extremists of this kind think that animals lie outside the area of moral choice.75) When that happens,it is not a mistake: it is mankind’s instinct for moral reasoning in action,an instinct that should be encouraged rather than laughed at.71) Some of these causes are completely reasonable results of social needs. Others are reasonable consequences of particular advances in science being to some extent self-accelerating.72 )This trend began during the Second World War,when several governments came to the conclusion that the specific demands that a government wants to make of its scientific establishment cannot generally be foreseen in detail. 73) This seems mostly effectively done by supporting a certain amount of research not related to immediate goals but of possible consequence in the future.74) However,the world is so made that elegant systems are in principle unable to deal with some of the world more fascinating and delightful aspects.75) New forms of thought as well as new subjects for thought must arise in the future as they have in the past,giving rise to new standards of elegance.1995年考研英语(一)翻译真题71) The target is wrong,for in attacking the tests,critics divert attention from the fault that lies with ill-informed or incompetent users.72) How well the predictions will be validated by later performance depends upon the amount,reliability,and appropriateness of the information used and on the skill and wisdom with which it is interpreted.73) Whether to use tests,other kinds of information,or both in a particular situation depends,therefore,upon the evidence from experience concerning comparative validity and upon such factors as cost and availability.74) In general,the tests work most effectively when the qualities to be measured can be most precisely defined and least effectively when what is to be measured or predicated can not be well defined.75) For example,they do not compensate for gross social inequality,and thus do not tell how able an underprivileged youngster might have been had he grown up under more favorable circumstances.1994年考研英语(一)翻译真题71) Science moves forward,they say,not so much through the insights of great men of genius as because of more ordinary things like improved techniques and tools.72)“In short”,a leader of the new school contends,“the scientific revolution,as we call it,was largely the improvement and invention and use of a series of instruments that expanded the reach of science in innumerable directions.”73) Over the years,tools and technology themselves as a source of fundamental innovation have largely been ignored by historians and philosophers of science. 74) Galileo’s greatest glory was that in 1609 he was the first person to turn the newly invented telescope on the heavens to prove that the planets revolve around the sun rather than around the Earth.75) Whether the Government should increase the financing of pure science at the expense of technology or vice versa(反之)often depends on the issue of which is seen as the driving for。

border between Israel and Palestine,"says Muhammad Hamudi, an olive farmer and olive oil producer from Asira al-Shamaliya,near Nablus in the West Bank.He has been working with the ongoing USAID-funded project Olive Oil Without Borders(OOWB.since its start in2011.Hamudi is in his mid-50s,with smiling eyes and palms so big that an olive looks tiny in them. "Today the border is here,tomorrow it will be there.The olive oil market has no borders as well.The bridge to the global market is the same bridgefor everyone."OOWB is a collaborative economic initiative among34olive oil farming communities in Israel and the West Bank.It is spearheaded by the Near East Foundation(NEF.,a100-year-old nongovernmental organization working on economic development among poverty-stricken communities throughout Africa and the Middle East.The initiative is funded by USAID,which provides financial and operative assistance to foreign nations and regions in need. The program has been successful enough that USAID has just granted OOWB its second US$1.2million round of funding,expected to serve some2,000 Palestinians and Israelis working in the olive oil business over the course of three years.Hamudi,one of the project's success stories,points out Salah Abu-Eisheh, NEF country director for the Palestinian authority."During the three-year run,he has tripled his production,improved significantly the quality and purity of his olive oil,and increased his income."Hamudi smiles when he hears Abu-Eisheh say this."NEF helped me achieve a sustained level of productivity,"Hamudi says."No more bad years and good years;now I am in control of the yield."This success is due in large part to direct grants farmers like Hamudi received for purchasing modern equipment,renovating facilities(such as mills),and planting new varieties of olive trees.The rest of the USAID funding goes to conducting seminars and hands-on workshops led by industry consultants, from agriculture and olive oil production to business management and marketing.Yet Palestinian farmers are only half of the OOWB equation:Israeli farmers and producers provide the necessary cross-border collaboration for this innovative and seemingly conflict-free program.When I ask Hamudi about his experience collaborating with hisIsraeli-Jewish counterparts,his answer is pragmatic."I see it as an exchange. We have things to teach,and they have things to teach.They use modern techniques,we have experience and knowledge.The benefits are for both sides. We have no other choices."But for a region stuck in political conflict,collaborating is a choice—and quite an unusual one.Ayala Noy,a40-year-old farmer and producer from the Israeli side,approaches the project from a different perspective:"It was a very important and empowering experience.Sitting down with a Palestinian farmer who tells me,with tears in his eyes,that his orchard was burned to the ground the previous night by Israeli settlers was very emotional for me. 'How do you sleep at night?'he asked me.I told him not very well.That was the biggest challenge for me—being a representative of Israel,dealing with the hard feelings they have toward us."Although one of OOWB's stated goals is to"leverage economic cooperation to promote peace and reconciliation,"according to NEF President Charlie Benjamin,the organization approaches its work from"a completely depoliticized perspective."The focus is on"building economic relationships. We don't touch the border issue."At the same time,Benjamin does acknowledge the growing trust,communication,and interaction outside the program.Noy agrees that the project has strengthened more than economic ties."We brought Palestinians to our house,we showed them our mill,and we try tokeep in touch by phone,"she says."I think it gave them a chance to see'other' Israelis.Many of them told me that was their first time to meet an Israeli who is not a soldier,or a settler."61、What information about OOWB is released from the passage?______A.It was founded in the early1980s.B.It receives financial support from USAID.C.It only supports olive farmers in Palestine.D.It is a political organization for seeking peace talks.62、The word"collaborative"underlined in Paragraph2is synonymous to ______.A.advanced B.dynamicC.cooperative D.progressive63、According to Paragraph2,which of the following statements is NOT true of NEF?______A.It is a part of the Israeli government.B.It has a history of100years.C.It aims at reducing poverty.D.It produces great results.64、From Paragraph3,we learn that Hamudi's olive production before he received support from NEF could only be described as______.A.disagreeable B.reliableC.stable D.unpredictable65、Besides providing direct grants to farmers,the USAID funding is also earmarked for______.A.running training courses B.building business schools C.purchasing industrial equipment D.consulting with legal departments66、What role do Israeli farmers'play in OOWB?______A.They try their best to stay out of it.B.They monitor it cautiously.C.They lend it a helping hand whenever needed.D.They turn a blind eye to its development.67、The word"pragmatic"underlined in Paragraph6is synonymous to______.A.ironic B.realisticC.majestic D.enthusiastic68、What is the biggest challenge for Ayala Noy?______A.He lacks modern equipment.B.He faces resentment from the Palestinians.C.He operates on the technical request.D.He tries to receive adequate funding for the region.69、The main topic of Paragraph8is that OOWB______.A.acts as an ambassador between the two countriesB.gets involved in economic activities onlyC.exerts political influence on the border tensionD.ignores the border between the two countries70、The Israeli-Palestinian collaboration in the project could be described as______.A.competitive B.imperativeC.peaceful D.resentfulAt the end of a recent feast at Restaurant Revolution in New Orleans,I ordered a cup of hot tea and was presented with an elegant silver kettle filled with an intoxicatingly aromatic lemon brew.Another notable meal enjoyed not long ago at Fixe in Austin began with their house-iced tea,a black tea and fruit blend customized for them by a local"tea guru."Tea has been a cherished beverage in the eastern hemisphere since the third millennium B.C.,but didn't make its way to the UK until late in the17th century,where it enjoyed immediate popularity.Another two centuries later,southerners in the United States began drinking their sweet and iced tea, but not until recently has tea appreciation started to spread throughout the rest of North America.These days,it's not uncommon to find Earl Grey in your cocktail or learn that your fried chicken was cooked in the stuff."I believe tea is still in its infancy in our country,"says Zhena Muzyka, owner of Zhena's Gypsy Tea,a Fair Trade CertifiedTM organic tea company, now in its13th year."It's the second-most-consumed beverage in the world, but the sixth-most-consumed in the U.S."But like a newborn,the U.S.tea industry is growing fast.Since1990, Americans have quadrupled their tea consumption,bringing it to aUS$10-billion industry in2014,according to the Tea Association of the U.S. Tea imports to the U.S.have grown by70percent in the last two decades alone. Starbucks,which started selling more than two dozen varieties of loose-leaf tea at their first location in Seattle,bought high-end tea-shop chain Teavana in2012.The concurrent artisanal food and beverage trend means that as more Americans learn to appreciate a cup of tea,they're also more interested in the source of the leaves,making"Fair Trade"tea particularly attractive. Fair Trade U.S.calculates that just between2012and2013,Fair Trade Certified tea—produced by cooperatives and farms—imports jumped by26 percent.Fair Trade certification ensures that farmers are guaranteed safe working conditions as well as a sustainable wage and fair capital,determined by the prices they set for their products.All workers also receive a Fair Trade premium,which they may choose to invest back into their farm or community."I believe that Americans love Fair Trade—they've backed it and bought it even when the economy was trashed,"Muzyka says,recalling when tea first joined coffee,bananas,and cocoa on the short list of available Fair Trade Certified products.Muzyka has visited Sri Lanka,India and China many times,growing closer with each visit to the families who grow and harvest the tea she uses for her blends.On conventional farms,a tea worker's daily quota is17.6pounds of tea per day,or about16,000individual plucks of leaves,she says.This strenuous work is usually done on steep hillsides at altitudes of5,000feet or higher,and workers collect leaves into large baskets on their backs,which are held in place by a forehead strap.Back when she was starting her company,Muzyka spent several years educating consumers and buyers at major grocery stores to choose Fair Trade suppliers over those without the certification."I showed them the photos I'd taken in the conventional fields,and explained that the workers were being paid US$1.35a day and unable to feed their families,"she says.71、The two cases described in Paragraph1show that______.A.restaurants aim at making more profits by selling expensive tea B.tea is enjoying increasingly great popularityC.tea containers should be different from those for other beveragesD.there should be more varieties of tea in U.S.restaurants72、The main idea of Paragraph2is______.A.the gradual acceptance of tea in different regionsB.the different ways of drinking tea in North and South AmericasC.the UK's dominance in the tea marketD.the history of picking tea leaves in China73、The phrase"Earl Grey"underlined in Paragraph2refers to______.A.a traditional dish B.a tropical fruitC.a tea brand D.a restaurant74、The word"infancy"underlined in Paragraph3is used as a rhetorical device termed______.A.simile B.personificationC.metaphor D.exaggeration75、Tea consumption in the U.S.is______.A.starting not long B.growing fastC.facing great challenges D.falling gradually76、The main idea of Paragraph6is______.A.farmers'complaints about taxesB.the key to pricing farm productsC.benefits from Fair Trade certificationD.the guide to farmers'investment77、The word"backed"underlined in Paragraph7means______.A.supported B.sharedC.sustained D.strengthened78、The word"strenuous"underlined in Paragraph8means______.A.difficult B.dangerousC.diligent D.different79、Muzyka is______tea workers.A.indifferent to B.doubtful aboutC.content with D.sympathetic with80、Muzyka tried to educate consumers at grocery stores to______.A.set preferential prices over qualityB.donate money to poor farmersC.understand the process of certificationD.support Fair Trade suppliersToday the long-awaited,much-heralded Apple Watch goes on sale.Touted by the company as its"most personal device yet,"it promises everything from quicker"interactions and technology"to a more intimate experience with our watches,whatever that might mean.The tech juggernaut,known for its cult-like devotion and grand live-streamed announcements,welcomes new product launches like Elvis just entered the building,with long lines of fans camped at local stores,and hysteria quickly hitting a fever pitch.Along with online launch countdowns and mass speculation,the company's hype always raises questions of whether their latest product will bring on the future of"X"—whether it's tech,retail,communication,or,really,take your pick.Basically,anything Apple does is a big deal.The Apple Watch,which comes at several price points,from the"moderately priced"US$350Apple Watch Sport to the$15,000luxurious Apple Watch Edition, has received pre-orders from over2.3million consumers and counting. Geek-chic watches have been around for decades,but the design of the iWatch, masterminded by Apple Senior Vice-President of Design and usability"god" Jony Ive,is expected to break the mold of what we can expect from all future time-telling gadgets,not just in terms of functionality but also mass production.This great leap forward,however,has just as much a foot in the past as the future—specifically,in an influential German design movement that grew out of the chaos of World War I,aiming to reinvent a more ordered and just society through great design.The Bauhaus school shifted between Weimar (1919-1925),Dessau(1925-1932)and Berlin(1932-1933)during Germany's most pivotal years,and acted as an innovation incubator,not unlike Apple's Design Lab.In both instances,a team of dedicated practitioners thought they could alleviate the alienation of modem society through more personal consumer products,clean lines,and user-friendly interfaces.In other words,a revolution centered on aesthetics that benefited the people.In1915,the visionary Walter Gropius,considered by many to be one of the first masters of modern architecture,began to develop his plan for a "purely organic building,"which declared"its inner laws,free of untruths or ornamentation."This"building"was more of a metaphor than a physical object,and extended beyond the concept of architecture to encompass product design,packaging,and even furniture.Not unlike Steve Jobs,Gropius was single-minded,and could be unwavering and brutally direct in his mission. As the head of the Bauhaus school in Weimar,he recognized the need to surround himself with a team of talented collaborators,instructors,and designers, on-boarding some of the biggest names in contemporary arts,including Paul Klee,Josef Albers,Herbert Bayer,Lazlo Moholy-Nagy and Vassily Kandinsky—names that history would prove incandescent creators.New-media artist Anthony Antonellis is one of those inspired by both modern technology and the Bauhaus's approach toward design education.Antonellis, who gained notoriety for his tech-inspired work and turning himself into a cyborg by implanting an RFID chip in his arm,studied at the current Bauhaus Dessau.He explained to me that the Bauhaus system,handed down by Gropius, is still resonant today."I arrived where I am as a direct result of my studies in Weimar.I studied alongside other artists,students in media,architects, craftsmen,product designers,graphic designers,and all these disciplines taught and learned from each other in a profound exchange of ideas and approaches."So whether you pre-ordered your watch online,or are part of the horde checking it out in stores,when you snap on your Apple Watch,just remember: It took literally thousands of brilliant thinkers and over a century of work to bring you that tiny,dazzling device.81、From Paragraph1,we know that the author's attitude toward the Apple product campaign is______.A.enthusiastic B.indifferentC.disapproving D.neutral82、The word"hysteria"underlined in Paragraph1means______.A.amazement B.revelationC.excitement D.contempt83、We can predict from the public response to the Apple iWatch that the sales of this product will be______.A.disappointed B.promisingC.troublesome D.unpredictable84、Which of the following statements is NOT true of the iWatch?______。

2016年5月英语三级笔译真题及答案大师兄版
2016年5月全国翻译专业资格(水平)考试英语三级《笔译实务》试卷Section1:English-Chinese Translation(50points)Translate the following passage into Chinese.Old people in Thiengoly say they can remember when there were so many trees that you couldn’t see the sky. Now,miles of reddish-brown sand surround this village in northwestern Senegal,dotted with occasional bushes and trees.Dried animal dung is scattered everywhere,but hardly any dried grass is.Overgrazing and climate change are the major causes of the Sahara’s advance,said Gilles Boetsch,an anthropologist who directs a team of French scientists working with Senegalese researchers in the region.“The local Peul people are herders,often nomadic.But the pressure of the herds on the land has become too great,”Mr. Boetsch said in an interview.“The vegetation can’t regenerate itself.”Since2008,however,Senegal has been fighting back against the encroaching desert.Each year it has planted some two million seedling trees along a545-kilometer,or340-mile,ribbon of land that is the country’s segment of a major pan-African regeneration project,the Great Green Wall.First proposed in2005,the program links Senegal and10other Saharan states in an alliance to plant a15kilometer-wide,7,100-kilometer-long green belt to fend off the desert.While many countries have still to start on their sections of the barrier,Senegal has taken the lead,with the creation of a National Agency for the Great Green Wall.“This semi-arid region is becoming less and less habitable.We want to make it possible for people to continue to live here,”Col.Pap Sarr,the agency’s technical director,said in an interview here.Colonel Sarr has forged working alliances between Senegalese researchers and the French team headed by Mr.Boetsch,in fields as varied as soil microbiology,ecology,medicine and anthropology.“In Senegal we hope to experiment with different ways of doing things that will benefit the other countries as they become more active,”the colonel said. Each year since2008,from May to June,about400people are employed in eight nurseries,choosing and overseeing germination of seeds and tending the seedlings until they are ready for planting.In August,1,000 people are mobilized to plant out rows of seedlings,about2million plants,allowing them a full two months of the rainy season to take root before the long,dry season sets in.After their first dry season,the saplings look dead,brown twigs sticking out of holes in the ground,but80 percent survive.Six years on,trees planted in2008are up to three meters,or10feet,tall.So far,30,000hectares, or about75,000acres,have been planted,including4,000hectares this summer.There are already discernible impacts on the microclimate,said Jean-Luc Peiry,a physical geography professor at the UniversitéBlaise Pascal in Clermont-Ferrand,France,who has placed30sensors to record temperatures in some planted parcels.“Preliminary results show that clumps of four to eight small trees can have an important impact on temperature,”Professor Peiry said in an interview.“The transpiration of the trees creates a microclimate that moderates daily temperature extremes.”“The trees also have an important role in slowing the soil erosion caused by the wind,reducing the dust,and acting like a large rough doormat,halting the sand-laden winds from the Sahara,”he added.Wildlife is responding to the changes.“Migratory birds are reappearing,”Mr. Boetsch said.The project uses eight groundwater pumping stations built in1954,before Senegal achieved its independence from France in1960.The pumps fill giant basins that provide water for animals,tree nurseries and gardens wherefruit and vegetables are grown.Section2:Chinese-English Translation(50points)Translate the following passage into English.健康是促进人的全面发展的必然要求。

Corporate boards and the critical oversight function they play have come to the fore over the last year. You don\'t need to look any further than the scandal roiling ExxonMobil to understand the high stakes at play.Exxon is facing a moment of truth with potentially huge financial ripples. Using internal company documents, Inside Climate News and The Los Angeles Times recently reported that Exxon deliberately misled the public about climate change research, even though its own scientists began warning the company about the dangers of warming global temperatures in 1977. Within days, the New York Attorney General confirmed that it has been investigating whether Exxon misled investors in a manner that violated state securities laws.Exxon presents a perfect case for examining how building sustainability into board governance can help prevent and manage risk. In the case of Exxon, climate risk is a sustainability issue that has been raised by investors through shareholder resolutions for well over a decade. So it\'s logical to ask how much did Exxon\'s board know about the company\'s research on climate change, and did any of the board members have the expertise necessary to question it? Did the company\'s research factor into board conversations on performance, risk and opportunity? And, importantly, did the board engage with stakeholders to inform its views?Investors are increasingly focused on the decisions made by corporate boards on corporate strategy and the extent to which it incorporates sustainability risks and opportunities. In 2013, a group of over 75 institutional investors collectively managing more than $3.5 trillion in assets sent letters to 45 of the world\'s largest fossil fuelcompanies, including Exxon, urging them to address the risks posed by climate change, including carbon asset risk.(Carbon asset risk is the potential of fossil fuel reserves being unusable - \'stranded,\' in Wall Street parlance - as the global economy transitions to low-carbon energy sources. Those risks are especially severe for fossil fuel companies if carbon-reducing efforts are successful in preventing Earth\'s temperatures from rising more than 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels.Board oversight and intervention have had a major impact on how companies respond. For example, only three of the fossil fuel companies initially targeted have endorsed the use of a 2 degree scenario analysis in their business planning: BHP Billiton, Statoil and ConocoPhillips. In each of these cases, the decision to move forward with the analysis was initiated from the board rather than from management. But this type of proactive approach remains the exception ratherthan the rule.Corporate boards need to move from being reactive on sustainability issues, to proactively and systematically thinking about how environmental and social challenges factor into corporate strategies and performance. Ceres recently published a report, \"View from the Top: How Corporate Boards can Engage on Sustainability Performance\", outlining specific recommendations for proactive board engagement. Based on interviews with dozens of board members, senior corporate leaders and governance experts, the report underscores that informed oversight is critical to good governance. Among the report\'s key recommendations:(1 Where a sustainability issue is material to the company, the board should include directors with expertise on key issues in question. Investors are especially focused on having companies recruit \"climate competent\" and \"sustainability competent\" directors. Companies like Prudential Financial, for example, identify \"expertise in corporateresponsibility/sustainability\" as a board qualification. Directors and management should assess the qualifications and expertise of current directors and map this against the company\'s sustainability priorities. Now is an ideal time for Exxon to re-consider shareholder calls for board members with climate expertise.(2 Boards run substantial risks when they operate as isolated entities. Engaging with external stakeholders, including investors, on sustainability priorities can mitigate those risks by giving directors a clearer view of the landscape of risks facing the company -- a view that is sometimes obscured when board directors rely solely on the perspective of company executives. The boards of three European oil and gas majors, Shell, BP and Statoil, embraced this approach and actually endorsed shareholder resolutions on climate change in 2015. Board engagement with shareholders led to a mutual understanding that better assessing climate risk would create long-term value. Nonetheless, companies like Exxon and Chevron continue to fight tooth and nail against any shareholder engagements that raise climate concerns, and requests to meet with board members are often rebuffed by management.The research indicates that Exxon\'s board would be better served by hearing directly from the shareholders that have been warning about climate and carbon asset risks. The reality is that sustainability is good business. Research, including from Harvard Business School, Morgan Stanley, and others consistently show that companies that embrace sustainability outperform their peers on a variety of crucial financial metrics.It\'s time for boards to embrace this reality.将第5-10段翻译成中文。
CATTI二级笔译汉译英真题2016年11月
CATTI二级笔译汉译英真题2016年11月(总分:40.00,做题时间:120分钟)一、Chinese -English Translation (40 points) (总题数:1,分数:20.00)1.Passage 1 浙江杭州是风景秀美之地,也是创新活力之城。
G20杭州峰会的会标,就是用20根线条,勾勒出一个桥型轮廓,同时辅以“2016年G20”的英文和篆隶“中国”印章。
桥,在G20独具含义。
曾几何时,全球经济治理为发达国家所垄断。
G20是第一个发达国家和发展中国家平等参与全球经济治理的机制,是历史的进步。
在这个意义上,G20本身就是一座桥,一座连接历史与未来、发达国家与发展中国家的桥梁。
在2016年的杭州,在世界经济发展的当下,桥又有了新的含义。
它寓意着对G20成为全球经济之桥、国际社会合作之桥、面向未来的共赢之桥的殷切期望。
桥梁线条形似光纤,寓意信息技术应用带来的互联互通,具有强烈的时代感。
我们希望,以杭州峰会为桥梁,各国间的联系将更加紧密,世界经济的前景将更加广阔。
(分数:20.00)__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案:(The city of Hangzhou in China’s Zhejiang province is known both for itsbeautiful scenery and for being a dynamic city with an innovative spirit. The logo of theG20 Hangzhou Summit features the image of a bridge, drawn in 20 lines. On top of it are the English for “G20 2016 China”, supplemented with the imprint of a tradi tional Chinese seal bearing the two Chinese characters for “China”. Bridge bears a special meaning for theG20. The G20 is in fact the first global mechanism that allows developed and developing countries alike to take equal part in global economic governance, something that used to be the monopoly of developed countries. This represents a progress in the evolution of global governance and renders the G20 a bridge that connects history with the future, and developed countries with developing countries. Given the current world economic situation, the bridge bears some new implication for the Hangzhou Summit. It implies a keen hope for the G20 to become a bridge in the global economy, a bridge that brings parties together in win-win global cooperation oriented toward the future. The symmetrically curved lines in the bridge are meant to be reminiscent of fiber-optic cables, referring to an interconnected world in an information age. It is our hope that the Hangzhou Summit will serve as a bridge through which countries will build stronger links with each other and together open up broader prospects for the world economy. )解析:二、SECTION 2 Optional Translation (20 points)(总题数:1,分数:20.00)2.Passage two 纵观世界文明史,人类先后经历了农业革命、工业革命、信息革命。

就算我这般清心寡欲,心诚意洁。外边那浮躁的社会也没能放过我, 作协找我谈话,文联请我汇报思想,我一一回避,把电话线拔了,连 通往我妈那套单元房的小门,都上了锁,轻易不过去看。
我妈不干了!眼看我两礼拜没过去摘菜叶子,心想孩子还像不像话了, 没工作不说,连摘菜叶子都想赖过去。我妈过来找我做思想工作。
做好今年政府工作,要把握好以下三点。第一,稳定和完善宏观经济 政策。继续实施积极的财政政策和稳健的货币政策,更加注重预调微 调,更加注重定向调控,用好增量,盘活存量,重点支持薄弱环节。 以微观活力支撑宏观稳定,以供给创新带动需求扩大,以结构调整促 进总量平衡,确保经济运行在合理区间。
积极的财政政策要加力增效。今年拟安排财政赤字 1.62 万亿元,比 去年增加 2700 亿元,赤字率从去年的 2.1%提高到 2.3%。其中,中央 财政赤字 1.12 万亿元,增加 1700 亿元;地方财政赤字 5000 亿元, 增加 1000 亿元。处理好债务管理与稳增长的关系,创新和完善地方 政府举债融资机制。适当发行专项。保障符合条件的在建项目后续融 资,防范和化解风险隐患。优化财政支出结构,大力盘活存量资金, 提高使用效率。继续实行结构性减税和普遍性降费,进一步减轻企业 特别是小微企业负担。

刚开始写小说那会儿,其实也就是去年春节过后,春节过完,吃吃喝
喝尘埃落定,我才正式下定决心的,我要开始作为一位叫做以千计的 小说家而存在的新生活了。
用上一份工作存下的钱,凑上我妈的买药钱,买了整洁的书桌,带靠 背的椅子,一叠稿纸,和一打笔。
开头我确实以百计,一个礼拜只能写一百字,余下的时间,我妈也没 有那么多菜让我摘。那我就遵循旅美作家哈金的教导,写不出来也要 坐在桌子跟前,坐够八个小时再下班。写小说要有写小说的样子,就 跟和尚上班就得坐在菩萨跟前一样。外头工作你嫌不好,这家这工作 你可不能再嫌弃了。
第二,保持稳增长与调结构的平衡。我国发展面临“三期叠加”矛盾, 资源环境约束加大,劳动力等要素成本上升,高投入、高消耗、偏重 数量扩张的发展方式已经难以为继,必须推动经济在稳定增长中优化 结构。既要稳住速度,确保经济平稳运行,确保居民就业和收入持续 增加,为调结构转方式创造有利条件;又要调整结构,夯实稳增长的 基础。要增加研发投入,提高全要素生产率,加强质量、标准和品牌 建设,促进服务业和战略性新兴产业比重提高、水平提升,优化经济 发展空间格局,加快培育新的增长点和增长极,实现在发展中升级、 在升级中发展。
第三,培育和催生经济社会发展新动力。当前经济增长的传统动力减 弱,必须加大结构性改革力度,加快实施创新驱动发展战略,改造传 统引擎,打造新引擎。一方面,增加公共产品和服务供给,加大政府 对教育、卫生等的投入,鼓励社会参与,提高供给效率。这既能补短
板、惠民生,也有利于扩需求、促发展。
另一方面,推动大众创业、万众创新。这既可以扩大就业、增加居民 收入,又有利于促进社会纵向流动和公平正义。我国有 13 亿人口、9 亿劳动力资源,人民勤劳而智慧,蕴藏着无穷的创造力,千千万万个 市场细胞活跃起来,必将汇聚成发展的巨大动能,一定能够顶住经济 下行压力,让中国经济始终充满勃勃生机。政府要勇于自我革命,给 市场和社会留足空间,为公平竞争搭好舞台。个人和企业要勇于创业 创新,全社会要厚植创业创新文化,让人们在创造财富的过程中,更 好地实现精神追求和自身价值。
伟大的文学家思想家鲁迅先生有过 156 个笔名,笔名多得下了班回家 一看,家里挤满了人,团团围住许广平和周海婴,人们络绎不绝地来 认自己的真身。普普通通的笔名我又用不惯,所以,我叫以千计。
那你原来叫什么?以百计?
这人真是聪明,他接下来还能猜得到我未来的笔名,跟聪明人打交道 就是省心。当我在作协文联大楼下,直接站在雪堆里以示诚意,为谋 得一套来年的秋裤瑟瑟发抖,我满怀悲怆,我的命运就是如此:以千 计!
我每每错愕,不知所措地摸着自己滚烫的脸颊,对方显然没有听完我 的详细资料,这时代人心真是浮躁,听人说话听一半儿,结婚结一半 儿,死都死一半儿,不甘心过世的人,常常会从病床上爬起来接着摘 菜叶子。
揉一揉几近落枕的下颚,我很有耐心地继续对他说:一年前我还不叫 以千计,但写小说的人要有笔名的,就好像自行车运动员先要置办头 盔,再弄肌肉。我就是嫌弃本来那个名字不好听,才写小说的,这样 我才可以心安理得地起个笔名。
稳健的货币政策要松紧适度。广义货币 M2 预期增长 12%左右,在实 际执行中,根据经济发展需要,也可以略高些。加强和改善宏观审慎 管理,灵活运用公开市场操作、利率、存款准备金率、再贷款等货币 政策工具,保持货币信贷和社会融资规模平稳增长。加快资金周转, 优化信贷结构,提高直接融资比重,降低社会融资成本,让更多的金 融活水流向实体经济。
孩子,须知千里之行始于足下,你成天石雕一般一动不动,让我如何
心安?
我已三十五岁,成年男性,生活可以自理,只是不愿意以摘菜叶子度 过余生,等您百年之后,我自然过去探望。
我妈照例甩了我一个耳光,我妈与他人不同,是左撇子,所以我的右 脸有幸得到一下耳光。一向备受轻视的右脸全靠我妈关照。
随后,她在我的小说当中,愤然离世,把肥胖的身躯遗传给了我。
今年是“十二五”收官之年,我们要在完成“十二五”经济社会发展 主要目标任务的同时,以改革的精神、创新的理念和科学的方法,做 好“十三五”规划纲要编制工作,谋划好未来五年的发展蓝图。

我叫以千计,我曾经干过很多行业,最近这个阶段,市道不景气,好 工作难寻,所以我在家写小说,休息的时候,帮我妈摘摘菜叶子。每 当我以谦恭儒雅的语气,向陌生人这么自我介绍的时候,都会被对方 猛打一个耳光,厉声道:好好的人不做,起个日本名字干吗?
