第1题：
If you have never seen a power plant, you might find it hard to imagine how enormously complex the equipment is or how much heat is generated by the boilers or how much coal it takes to fuel the furnaces for just one day.
During the course of a day, the boilers at one of our power plants, Morgantown, for example, can turn 24 million gallons of water into steam. That generating plant alone uses 9,900 tons of coal in
its furnaces in just one day. Potomac Electric Power Company (PEPCO) uses so much coal that we have purchased two 80-car unit trains to facilitate the delivery process. And Morgantown alone can produce over 25 million kilowatthours of electricity in a single day's operation.
Electricity is produced by spinning large magnets inside a coil
of wire within the generator. The faster we spin the magnets, the higher will be the voltage of the electricity produced. Electricity leaves a PEPCO generator at between 13,800 and 24,000 volts.
The next step in the process occurs when electricity passes through a transformer where the voltage is stepped up to continue on its journey. A transmission wire is like a small diameter pipe. Stepping up the voltage is like increasing water pressure, thus speeding the flow of energy through the system.________
参考答案：
如果你从未见过一座发电厂，你可能很难想象发电设备是多么复杂，锅炉能产生多么巨大的热量，而炉子每天又是需要烧多少煤。举例说，我们的一座发电厂——摩根顿发电厂——的各台锅炉一天中就能把二千四百万加仑的水化为蒸汽。这座电厂的炉子一天之内就消耗九千九百吨煤。波多马克电力公司(PEPCO)用煤量如此巨大，以致我们专门购置了两列八十节车皮的火车以加速输送煤的过程。仅仅一座摩根顿电厂就能每天生产二千五百万千瓦小时的电。电是靠使大型磁铁在发电机内的线圈里面转动而产生的。磁铁转速愈高，产生的电压就愈高。电流从波多马克电力公司的发电机出来时，其电压在13,800伏至24,000伏之间。下一道程序是使电流通过一个变压器，把电压提升，并使电继续向前进。一根导线就象一根小口径的水管。把电压升高就象给水加压一样，这样一来就会使这个系统中能量的运动加快。

[采分点解析] 1．If you have never seen a power plant，you might find it hard to imagine how enormously complex the equipment is or how much heat is generated by the boilers or how much coal it takes to fuel the furnaces for just one day. 如果你从未见过一座发电厂，你可能很难想象发电设备是多么复杂，锅炉能产生多么巨大的热量，而炉子每天又是需要烧多少煤。[分析] 基本素质采分点与理解结构采分点。power plant固定词组：发电厂；the equipment根据上下文译成“发电设备”：本句中主句的谓语动词find后是形式宾语it，而真正的宾语是动词不定式to imagine…；而imagine后有三个宾语从句，翻译时要用换序译法(将真正宾语提前)、断句译法(将三个how从句断开译)，还有转态译法即本句中的被动语态译成汉语时要变成主动(how much heat is generated)。2．During the course of a day，the boilers at one of our power plants，Morgantown，for example，can turn 24 million gallons of water into steam．举例说，我们的一座发电厂——摩根顿发电厂——的各台锅炉一天中就能把二千四百万加仑的水化为蒸汽。 [分析] 理解结构采分点。翻译中要注意措词的变换，有时需将笼统的变成具体的，形象的变成抽象的，反之亦然：本句中的the boilers就应译成具体的“各台锅炉”。3．That generating plant alone uses 9,900 tons of coal in its furnaces in just one day．Potomac Electric Power Company(PEPCO) uses so much coal that we have purchased two 80-car unit trains to facilitate the delivery process．这座电厂的炉子一天之内就消耗九千九百吨煤。波多马克电力公司(PEPCO)用煤量如此巨大，以致我们专门购置了两列八十节车皮的火车以加速输送煤的过程。[分析] 理解结构采分点。翻译中要根据需要增减词义，使得译文语意完整；还要注意语序的调整，使得句子的指代清楚。如本句：That generating plant alone uses 9,900 tons of coal in its furnaces in just one day. 中的划线部分就可译成：这座电厂的炉子……；so…that句式中要调整好语序；two 80-car unit trains to facilitate the delivery process中数词后要按汉语习惯加上量词，to facilitate the delivery process 也要说清楚是“加速输送煤的过程”。4．And Morgantown alone can produce over 25 million kilowatthours of electricity in a single day's operation．仅仅一座摩根顿电厂就能每天生产二千五百万千瓦小时的电。 [分析] 用词选词采分点。上面提到翻译中要根据需要增减词义，使得译文语意完整；本句中的in a single day's operation 中的划线词在翻译中可不译出。5．The faster we spin the magnets，the higher will be the voltage of the electricity produced．磁铁转速愈高，产生的电压就愈高。 [分析] 理解结构采分点。本句是the faster…the higher比较级结构，可用换序译法；同时前半句中的人称代词不要译出，可使句子的表达更为客观。6．Electricity leaves a PEPCO generator at between 13,800 and 24,000 volts．电流从波多马克电力公司的发电机出来时，其电压在13,800伏至24,000伏之间。[分析] 理解结构采分点。本句可用断句法翻译。当电流从……发电机输出时，其电压在13,800伏至 24,000伏之间。7．The next step in the process occurs when electricity passes through a transformer where the voltage is stepped up to continue on its journey．下一道程序是使电流通过一个变压器，把电压提升，并使电继续向前进。 [分析] 理解结构采分点。本
句中的被动结构若直译，则不符合汉语习惯，因此将被动变主动：the voltage is stepped up把电压提升；后面的目的状语也可用断句译法来译。
第2题：
Because the aircraft industry needs ever-increasing quantities of aluminium plate, new equipment has been designed to automate the making of it. It includes a huge heat-treatment furnace, a crane that lifts hot metal plates without damaging them, and a computer system that can manage the complete flow of work.
Five years ago, Europe's aircraft industry needed only 8,000 tonnes of aluminium plate a year for its products. Last year the figure reached 21,800 tonnes. By 2004 it should total 30,000 tonnes. Each airliner contains 180 tonnes of it. That is why the plant is being rebuilt to increase both the quality and the amount of its product.
Aluminium is alloyed with other metals and cast into ingots, and the surface of the ingots is smoothed off. After pre-heating, it is rolled in a mill that can take 3.75-m-wide slabs. The new equipment can make the process more efficient and can produce a better product. For example, computers control the temperature of the hot plates, the rate at which they pass through the mill, the speed of cooling it
with water, and so on.
The new plant can handle twice the throughput of the one that it is replacing, thanks to the completely automated and computerized process._________
参考答案：
由于飞机制造工业需要越来越多的铝板，已设计了新的设备把制造铝板的工序自动化。这套设备包括一个巨型的热处理炉，一架可以起吊热的金属板而不至于损坏它们的吊车和一套能控制整个工艺流程的计算机系统。五年前，欧洲的飞机制造工业每年只需要8,000吨铝板。去年这个数字增加到21,800吨。到2004年它将达到30,000吨。每架民航飞机就含有180吨铝板。因此正在对这套设备进行改建，以便提高产品的质量和产量。铝与其他金属一起被制成合金，铸成锭子，并且把锭子的表面光洁化。预热之后，锭子在一架可以容纳3.75米宽的平板的轧机中进行轧制。这套新设备可使这个工序提高效率，并能改进产品的质量。举例说，铝板加热的温度，铝板通过轧机的速度，以及用水对它进行冷却的速度等等，都由计算机控制。由于工序全部自动化和使用计算机控制，这套新设备能够处理两倍于被它代替的旧设备的产量。
详细解答：
[采分点解析] 1．Because the aircraft industry needs ever-increasing quantities of aluminium plate，new equipment has been designed to automate the making of it. It includes a huge heat- treatment furnace，a crane that lifts hot metal plates with out damaging
them，and a computer system that can manage the complete flow of work．由于飞机制造工业需要越来越多的铝板，已设计了新的设备把制造铝板的工序自动化。这套设备包括一个巨型的热处理炉，一架可以起吊热的金属板而不至于损坏它们的吊车和一套能控制整个工艺流程的计算机系统。[分析] 理解结构采分点。第一句的主句采用了转态译法和换序译法，即将句子的结构由被动变为主动，词序也作相应的调整：new equipment has been designed译成“已设计了新的设备”，to automate the making of it 译成“把制造铝板的工序自动化”，第二句开始的it，要译出它所指代的是什么，以免读者不知所云，后面的a crane和a computer system各带了一个定语从句，在翻译中要注意它们的位置，在此只须将它们放到被修饰的名词前即可：“一架可以起吊热的金属板而又不至于损坏它们的吊车和一套能控制整个工艺流程的计算机系统。”2．By 2004 it should total 30,000 tonnes．到2004年它将达到30,000吨。[分析] 用词选词采分点。 total译为：总数将达到。3．That is why the plant is being rebuilt to increase both the quality and the amount of its product，因此正在对这套设备进行改建，以便提高产品的质量和产量。[分析] 理解结构采分点。本句的翻译要用转态译法：the plant is being rebuilt(正在对这套设备进行改建)：断句译法：the plant is being rebuilt to increase both the quality and the amount of its product．(正在对这套设备进行改建，以便提高产品的质量和产量)和措辞变换That is why…(因此)；to increase both the quality and the amount of its product. (以便提高产品的质量和产量)：both按中文习惯不译出。4．Aluminium is alloyed with other metals and cast into ingots，and the surface of the ingots is smoothed off．铝与其他金属一起被制成合金，铸成锭子，并且把锭子的表面光洁化。 [分析] 理解结构采分点。本句中有三个并列的被动语态结构，翻译时要根据上下文的不同而变换译法：第一个被动结构不变：铝与其他金属一起被制成合金，第二个被动结构译为主动：铸成铝锭，第三个被动结构也译为主动：把铝锭的表面光洁化。5．The new plant can handle twice the throughput of the one that it is replacing，thanks to the completely automated and computerized process．由于工序全部自动化和使用计算机控制，这套新设备能够处理两倍于被它代替的旧设备的产量。 [分析] 理解结构采分点。因为汉语习惯将原因放在前面，翻译时将原因状语提前。the new plant按上下文应译成“这套新设备”：定语从句the one that it is replacing翻译时放到被修饰词前，变成一个定语短语。
Section ⅡChinese-English Translation Translate the following passage into English .
第3题：
论想象力的培养
我的讲话是主张培养想象力。
那么，我是从什么意义上使用“想象力”这个词的呢? “想象力”一词
的定义是：“构思出理想图画的能力”，“向自己或他人描述不在眼前的事物
的能力。”我在下面的讲话使用“想象力”这个词时，就具有这样的含义。
沿着这条思路，我相信可以把我的意思讲清楚。不在眼前的事物是什么呢?例如历史就是。历史讲的是过去的事情。从某种意义上来说，历史并不存在于
脑中——就是说，你看不到过去的事情：但是学习历史能使你得到并增强理解不在眼前的事物的能力。因此我愿向你们推荐历史课，那是一门最值得学习的课程。_________
参考答案：
On the Cultivation of the Imagination I address these words in favor of the cultivation of the imagination. In what sense, then, do I use th6 word "imagination"? The meaning of "imagination" is "the power of forming ideal pictures"; "the power of representing absent things to ourselves and to others." That is the sense in which I shall use the word "imagination" in the course of my address. Now follow out this thought and I think I can make my meaning clear. Absent things! Take history. History deals with the things of the past. They are absent in a sense, from your minds -- that is to say you cannot see them; but the study of history qualifies you and strengthens your capacity for understanding things that are not present to you, and thus I wish to recommend history to you as a most desirable course of study.
详细解答：
[采分点解析] 1．我的讲话是主张培养想象力。I address these words in favor of the cultivation of the imagination． [分析] 理解表达采分点。英语中为了强调目的，常用目的状语来表达：本句中的“主张”可以译成介词短语in favor of作状语，原句(汉语中)的主系表结构在英语中用主谓宾结构+状语来表达。2．“想象力”一词的定义是：“构思出理想图画的能力”，“向自己或他人描述不在眼前的事物的能力。”The meaning of “imagination”is“the power of forming ideal pictures”；“the power of representing absent things to ourselves and to others．” [分析] 理解表达采分点。汉语中常将定语放在所修饰的中心词前，之间用“的”连接，而在英语中定语常用一个短语或从句来表达，位置也较灵活。因此本句中的定语“构思出理想图画”“向自己或他人描述不在眼前的事物’可借助于分词短语来构成。3．我在下面的讲话使用“想象力”这个词时，就具有这样的含义。That is the sense in which I shall use the word “imagination”in the coarse of my address． [分析] 理解表达采分点。汉语强调意合，结构较松散，因此简单句较多；而英语强调形合，结构较严密，因此长句较多：汉译英时注意借助各种手段将汉语短句连成长句：本句要突出的是“……就具有这样的含义”，因此主句不妨用主系表结构来表示，后面带一个定语从句。4．不在眼前的事物是什么呢?例如历史就是。Absent things! Take history． [分析] 理解表达采分点。本文因是一篇讲话，所以用口语体较多；翻译时要随着讲话者的思路走。此处就是讲话者在讲话过程中的思索，所以可用省略句来体现，而原文的设问句可用感叹句来表达讲话者的茫然。后面的简单句为反映口语体，也译成 Take history，将for example省略了。5．从某种意义上来说，历史并不存在于脑中——就是说，你看不到过去的事情，但是
学习历史能使你得到并增强理解不在眼前的事物的能力。因此我愿向你们推荐历史课，那是一门值得学习的课程。They are absent in a sense，from your minds—that is to say．you cannot see them；but the study of history qualifies you and strengthens your capacity for understanding things that are not present to you，and thus I wish to recommend history to you as a most desirable course of study． [分析] 理解表达采分点。此处有好几个句子，而英语中若分句过多，会产生句子结构混乱，因此采用将几个句子合译为一个复合句的方法，原句第一个分号之前的内容用they are absent…from your minds这一结构来体现。后面表转折的分句及最终得出的结论用一个并列句来表达，用顺译法和并句法来译即可，但要注意汉译英时定语的位置。

[模拟] 翻译三级笔译实务模拟25 Section ⅠEnglish Chinese Translation Translate the following two passages into Chinese . 第1题： Acid rain, is a form of air pollution, currently a subject of great controversy because of widespread environmental damage for which it has been blamed. It forms when oxides of sulfur and nitrogen combine with atmospheric moisture to yield sulfuric and nitric acids, which may then be carded long distances from their source before they are deposited by rain. The pollution many also take the form of snow or fog or be precipitated in dry forms. In fact, although the term "acid rain" has been in use for more than a century — it is derived from atmospheric studies that were made in the region of Manchester, England — the more accurate scientific term would be "acid deposition." The dry form of such precipitation is just as damaging as the liquid form, especially to trees and structures. Furthermore, some of the pollutants also associated with acid rain are not themselves acidic. The problem of acid rain may be said to have originated with the Industrial Revolution, and it has been growing ever since. The severity of its effects has long been recognized in local settings, as exemplified by the spells of acid smog in heavily industrialized areas. The wide destructiveness of acid rain, however, has come to be realized only in recent decades. One large area that has been studied extensively is northern Europe, where acid rain has eroded structures, injured crops and forests, and threatened or depleted life in freshwater lakes. In 1983, for example, published reports indicated that 34 percent of the forested areas of West Germany had been damaged by acid rain. The northeastern U.S. and eastern Canada have also been affected by this form of pollution, and other areas of the two countries are also showing increasing signs of damages, as are other regions of the world. Industrial emissions have been blamed as the major cause of acid rain. Because the chemical reactions involved in the production of acid rain in the atmosphere are complex and as yet little understood, industries have tended to challenge such assessments and to stress the need for further studies; and because of the cost of pollution reduction, governments have tended to support this attitude. Studies released by the U.S. government in the early 1980s, however, strongly implicated industries as the main source of acid rain._____________

全国翻译专业资格（水平）考试英语三级笔译实务模拟试题 Part 1 English-Chinese Translation (英译汉) Translate the following passage into Chinese and write your translation on the ANSWER SHEET (60 points, 100 minutes). I leave the vault, and as the guard closes the door, a marine archaeologist asks if I want to see anything else. As an example he shows me an astrolabe, a navigation tool that preceded the sextant. Few have survived. "We have three of the oldest known," he says. He directs me to a paper on astrolabes written by a Cuban colleague, who quoted a 16th-century instruction: "He who wants to take the sun with an astrolabe at sea, must be seated near the main mast, the place where the boat oscillates the least and is quiet." I want to take the measure of Cubas past, so I tell the archaeologist I would like to go to the place where the plain things are. I am here not only to see treasures that glitter but also to see and touch objects that illumine moments of the past. Smiling, he takes me into storage rooms where he and other archaeologists preserve cargoes from four centuries of wrecks. Jumbled on these shelves is the stuff of Cubas long reign as counting house and command center for Spains New World colonies. I see knickknacks destined for one of the annual 18th-century trade fairs, where Cubans bought imports from Spain. I also see, pallid from centuries in the sea, dozens of little painted ceramic dogs, lions, cats, and deer later shipped from England. Stacked nearby are sets of dinner dishes, tankards, an hourglass, a bottle of very Old Spanish wine. On another day, in fading light, I walk the ramparts of El Morro, its lighthouse standing tall over Havanas harbor. The old fortress, by day a warren of tourist stops, changes by night, looming deeper into the shadows of Havanas past. As torches light the darkness, I watch Cuban soldiers, costumed as 18th-century Spanish sentries, march along the ramparts of the Castillo de San Carlos and fire a cannon that salutes

翻译三级笔译实务模拟
翻译三级笔译实务模拟27 Section Ⅰ English Chinese Translation 1、As the importance of recycling becomes more apparent, questions about it linger. Is it worth the effort? How does it work? Is recycling waste just going into a landfill in China? Here are some answers. It is an awful lot of rubbish. Since 1960 the amount of municipal waste being collected in America has nearly tripled, reaching 245m tonnes in 2005. According to European Union statistics, the amount of municipal waste produced in western Europe increased by 23% between 1995 and 2003, to reach 577kg per person. (So much for the plan to reduce waste per person to 300kg by 2000.) As the volume of waste has increased, so have recycling efforts. In 1980 America recycled only 9.6% of its municipal rubbish ; today the rate stands at 32%. A similar trend can be seen in Europe, where some countries, such as Austria and the Netherlands, now recycle 60% or more of their municipal waste. Britain's recycling rate, at 27%, is low, but it is improving fast, having nearly doubled in the past three years. Even so, when a city introduces a kerbside recycling programme, the sight of all those recycling lorries trundling around can raise doubts about whether the collection and transportation of waste materials requires more energy than it saves. "We are constantly being asked: Is recycling worth doing on environmental grounds?" says Julian Parfitt, principal analyst at Waste & Resources Action Programme (WRAP), a non-profit British company that encourages recycling and develops markets for recycled materials. Studies that look at the entire life cycle of a particular material can shed light on this question in a particular case, but WRAP decided to take a broader look. It asked the Technical University of Denmark and the Danish Topic Centre on Waste to conduct a review of 55 life-cycle analyses, all of which were selected because of their rigorous methodology. The researchers then looked at more than 200 scenarios, comparing the impact of recycling with that of burying or burning particular types of waste material. They found that in 83% of all scenarios that included recycling, it was indeed better for the environment. Based on this study, WRAP calculated that Britain's recycling efforts reduce its carbon-dioxide emissions by 10m-15m tonnes per year. That is equivalent to a 10% reduction in Britain's annual carbon-dioxide emissions from transport, or roughly equivalent to taking 3.5m cars off the roads. Similarly, America's Environmental Protection Agency estimates that recycling reduced the country's
