2016 年5 月英语三级笔译实务真题英译汉Old people in Widou 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.维多西恩格里(Widou Thiengoly)的老人们都说,当年这里树木繁盛,林荫蔽日。
而如今,这座位于塞内加尔西北部的村落四周绵延数英里都是红褐色的沙土,灌木丛和大树零星点缀其间。
动物干粪在这里随处可见,但是干草却遍地难寻。
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.”吉尔•波特舍(Gilles Boetsch)是一位人类学家,现正带领一支法国科研团队与塞内加尔的研究人员在当地联合开展研究。

“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.

you think fits best.Blacken the corresponding letter as required on your machine-scoring ANSWER SHEET.Why do readers of New Scientist continue to get steamed up about race?After all,it can be used as an innocuous technical term by anthropologists.But all too often discussions of"race"lead to"racism",and tempers begin to fray.Before the18th century,race merely described a group of common cultural origin,not one defined by immutable characteristics.Unfortunately,this usage changed as the Western powers colonized Asia and Africa and needed a way to characterize the peoples they subjected as not only different,but inferior.A long list of scientists helped to"classify"the races.Among them were some of the famous names of the18th and19th centuries:Linnaeus,Cuvier, Haeckel,Huxley and Buffon.Although their classifications rarely agreed, many accepted that the races were fundamentally different and could be arranged with Caucasians at the top.Only after the Darwinian evolution and the emergence of genetics did the notion of a league table start to crumble.By the1940s,UNESCO could emphatically state:"Racism falsely claims that there is a scientific basis for arranging groups hierarchically in terms of psychological and cultural characteristics that are immutable and innate."That groups cannot be arranged hierarchically does not mean that anthropologists cannot set up classifications which divide people into different groups,or that such classifications will not be useful,as several of our latter writers point out.For example,they can provide vital tools (along with language distribution)to reconstruct the prehistoric movements of peoples.Where genetic data are available,these reconstructions can be greatly refined.In other contexts,such classifications are misleading.Many of the differences they record(including facial features,skin and hair color)are most probably superficial adaptations to local climate.Although useful as indicators of the origin of different groups,they imply nothing fundamental about differences between them.Attempts to assess more important differences between groups(of any number of cognitive abilities,for example)always come to the same very well-known conclusion-that the differences between individuals within one racial group are much larger than the differences between the average members of two such groups.What this means is that it is impossible to say anything about a particular individual's ability because of his or her race(however,defined)because the spread of variation within a race is larger than the average difference between races.Racism can thus receive no support from science,even though a classification of races can be scientifically useful.Lay people sometimes put more faith in the concept of race than scientists do,perhaps because they believe they can quite easily identify a person's race or even nationality.But it's not that easy:our correspondent from Le Vesinet,for example,identified some of the people in our recent feature ("Genes in Black and White")as Australian,Sicilian,Sumatran and Brazilian. In fact,they came from Sweden,Greece,the Central African Republic and Russia.61、The phrase"steamed up"underlined in Paragraph1means______.A.vaporizedB.interestedC.agitatedD.scared62、Before the18th century,the word"race"was used______.A.to describe the people of common origin and cultureB.by anthropologists for classifications of racesC.to indicate the hierarchy of different groupsD.rarely by ordinary people63、Some Western colonizers thought that they were______.A.arrogantB.weakC.inferiorD.superior64、The classification of races by famous18th-and19th-century scientists were______.efulB.hierarchicalC.valuableD.significant65、The Darwinian evolution and the emergence of genetics helped to______.A.promote the notion of a league tableB.get rid of the notion of a league tableC.establish the UNESCOD.arrange groups hierarchically66、The classifications of races by anthropologists are useful in that they ______.A.divide people into different groupsB.help to define prehistoric human movementsC.contribute to language distributionD.provide tools for the study of prehistoric human movements67、Anthropologists'classifications are sometimes misleading because they ______.A.imply fundamental differences between groupsB.refine the reconstruction of prehistoric human movementsC.do not imply the basic differences between groupsD.tell nothing about the influence of local climate68、Compared with differences between individuals within a group,the differences between groups are______.A.much greaterB.smallerC.more importantD.not clearly defined69、Racism receives little support from science because______.A.a classification of races can be scientifically usefulB.an individual's ability is determined by his or her raceC.the spread of variation within a race is largerD.the notion of racism has already become insignificant70、Which of the following is the appropriate title of the passage?______A.How to Get Rid of RacismB.New ScientistC.The Concept of RaceD.Reasons for RacismNow online provision is transforming higher education,giving the best universities a chance to widen their catch,opening new opportunities for the agile,and threatening doom for the slow and average.The roots are decades old.Britain's Open University started teaching via radio and television in 1971.MIT and others have been posting lectures on the Internet for a decade.But the change in2012has been electrifying.Two start-ups,both spawned by Stanford University,are recruiting students at an astonishing rate for "massive open online courses"or MOOCs.In January,Sebastian Thrun,a computer-science professor there,announced the launch of Udacity.It started to offer courses the next month-a nanosecond by the standards of old-style university decision-making.In April,two of Mr.Thrun's ex-colleagues launched a rival,Coursera.At first,it offered online courses from four universities.By August,it had signed up1million students,now boasting over2million.Harvard and MIT announced they would launch edX,a non-profit venture.Other schools have joined,too.One spur is economic and political pressure to improve productivity in higher education.The cost per student in the U.S.has risen at almost five times the rate of inflation since1983.For universities beset by heavy debts, smaller taxpayer subsidies and a cyclical decline in enrollment,online courses mean better tuition,higher graduation rates and lower-cost degrees. New technology also gives the innovative a chance to shine against their rivals.MOOCs are more than good university lectures available online.The real innovation comes from integrating academic talks with interactive coursework, such as automated tests,quizzes and even games.Real-life lectures have no pause,rewind(or fast-forward)buttons;MOOCs let students learn at their own pace,typically with short,engaging videos.The cost of the courses canbe spread over huge numbers of students.MOOCs enrich education for worldwide students,especially the cash-strapped,and those dissatisfied with what their own colleges are offering.But for others,especially in poor countries, online education opens the door to yearning for opportunities.Some of Europe's best schools are determinedly unruffled.Oxford says that MOOCs"will not prompt it to change anything",adding that it"does not see them as revolutionary in anything other than scale".Cambridge even says it is"nonsense"to see MOOCs as a rival;it is"not in the business of online education".Such universities are likely to continue to attract the best(and richest)applicants who want personal tuition and the whiff of research in the air.For these places,MOOCs are chiefly a marketing opportunity.To compete head-on with established providers,MOOCs must not just teach but also provide credible qualifications.The vast majority of Coursera, Udacity and edX offerings do not provide a degree.This may be one reason for MOOCs'high dropout rates.Another worry is that online tests are open to cheating and plagiarism.Peer grading even if honest,may be flawed.71、______was the first to offer the open lectures.A.HarvardB.MITC.Britain's Open UniversityD.Stanford University72、The word"MOOCs"underlined in Paragraph2is______.A.a shortened version of"massive online open courses"B.abbreviated from"massive open online courses"C.another type of open classroom coursesD.equivalent to flipped classroom teaching73、From Paragraph1,we can know that______.A.online education programs spring up like mushroomsB.Udacity,Coursera and edX are not rivalsC.other schools have joined Stanford and HarvardD.Online courses are offered by non-profit universities74、Universities embracing new technology in launching online courses DON'T consider______.A.better tuitionB.more innovationsC.lower-cost degreesD.higher graduation rates75、Compared with real-life lectures,MOOCs are offered to______.A.allow students to pause during academic talksB.encourage students to rewind the buttons to track the tapesC.enable students to learn in their classrooms with videosD.integrate academic talks with interactive coursework76、Paragraph5indicates that some of the best European universities______.A.cannot remain calm in the face of MOOCsB.regard MOOCs as a revolution in higher educationC.prefer traditional education to online provisionsD.attract the best applicants to challenge online courses77、The phrase"a marketing opportunity"underlined in Paragraph5suggests ______.A.some universities use MOOCs as a publicity facility onlyB.students can obtain their degrees with the lowest costsC.MOOCs,as any other online courses,mean better tuitionD.MOOCs can reduce financial pressure on the universities78、The MOOCs'dropout rate is high because______.A.they lose to the established providersB.they don't allow students to cheat in online testsC.they are not aware of the importance of qualificationsD.most courses offered don't provide degrees79、The phrase"peer grading"underlined in the last paragraph means______.A.the honesty of studentsB.the flaws in students'charactersC.students'assessment of their classmatesD.students of the same age and social status80、The passage implies that online courses are______.A.transforming higher educationB.creating new opportunities for the bestC.bringing some problems to the rest of studentsD.helping improve traditional classroom instructionThe world is on the cusp of a staggering rise in the number of old people, and they will live longer than ever before.Over the next20years,the global population of those aged65or more will almost double,from600million to 1.1billion.The experience of the20th century,when greater longevity translated into more years in retirement rather than more years at work,has persuaded many observers that this shift will lead to slower economic growth and"secular stagnation",while the swelling ranks of pensioners will bust government budgets.But the notion of a sharp division between the working young and the idle old misses a new trend,the growing gap between the skilled and the unskilled. Employment rates are falling among younger unskilled people whereas older skilled folk are working longer.The divide is most extreme in the U.S.,where well-educated baby-boomers are putting off retirement while many less-skilled younger people have dropped out the workforce.This trend will benefit not just fortunate oldies but also,in some ways, society as a whole.Growth will slow less dramatically than expected; government budgets will be in better shape,as high earners pay taxes longer. Rich countries with lots of well-educated older people will find the burden of ageing easier to bear than other countries,where half of all50-to-64-year-olds did not complete primary-school education.At the other end of the social scale,however,things look grim.Manual work gets harder as people get older,and public pensions look more attractive to those on low wages and the unemployed.Nor are all the effects on the economy beneficial.Wealthy old people willaccumulate more savings,which will weaken demand.Inequality will increase and a growing share of wealth will eventually be transferred to the next generation via inheritance,entrenching the division between winners and losers still further.One likely response is to impose higher inheritance taxes.So long as they replace less-fair taxes,that might make sense.This would probably encourage old people to spend their cash rather than salt it away.But governments should focus not on redistributing income but on generating more of it by reforming retirement and education.How likely are governments to make these changes?Look around the rich world today,and it is hard to be optimistic.The swelling ranks of older voters,and their disproportionate propensity to vote,have left politicians keener to pander to them than to implement disruptive reforms.Germany,despite being the fastest-ageing country in Europe,plans to cut the statutory retirement age for some people.In the U.S.,both social security(the public pension scheme)and the fast-growing system of disability benefits remain untouched by reform.Politicians need to convince less-skilled older voters that it is in their interests to go on working.Doing so will not be easy. But the alternative-economic stagnation and even greater inequality-is worse.81、The word"staggering"underlined in Paragraph1means______.A.swayingB.unstableC.zigzaggingD.astounding82、Observers believe that the rise in the number of old people will NOT______.A.affect the longevity of the elderlyB.bust government budgetsC.lead to secular stagnationD.slow down economic growth83、There is a new trend in the U.S.,where______.A.there appears a baby boomB.more younger unskilled people are unemployedC.more older skilled people are working longerD.both B and C84、Which of the following notions tends to be ignored as a new trend?______A.The big gap between the well-educated and the undereducated.B.The wide gap between male and female workers.C.The widening gap between the skilled and the unskilled.D.The growing gap between the working young and the idle old.85、The new trend may also benefit society,for______.A.economic growth will slow down as expectedB.high-earning old people pay taxes longerernment budgets will be in the redernments encourage early retirement86、Rich countries find the burden of ageing easier to bear because their aged people______.A.may pay less taxesB.may enjoy early retirement。

2016年5月、11月翻译资格考试三级英语笔译真题及答案

2016年5月翻译资格考试三级英语笔译真题及答案试题部分:Section 1: English-Chinese Translation (英译汉) Translate the following passage into Chinese.LECCO, Italy — Each morning, about 450 students travel along 17 school bus routes to 10 elementary schools in this lakeside city at the southern tip of Lake Como. There are zero school buses.In 2003, to confront the triple threats of childhood obesity, local traffic jams and —most important —a rise in global greenhouse gases abetted by car emissions, an environmental group here proposed a retro-radical concept: children should walk to school.They set up a piedibus (literally foot-bus in Italian) —a bus route with a driver but no vehicle. Each morning a mix of paid staff members and parental volunteers in fluorescent yellow vests lead lines of walking students along Lecco’s twisting streets to the schools’ gates, Pied Piper-style, stopping here and there as their flock expands.At the Carducci School, 100 children, or more than half of the students, now take walking buses. Many of them were previously driven in cars. Giulio• Greppi, a 9-year-old with shaggy blond hair, said he had been driven about a third of a mile each way until he started taking the piedibus. “I get to see my friends and we feel special because we know it’s good for the environment,” he said.Although the routes are each generally less than a mile, the town’s piedibuses have so far eliminated more than 100,000 miles of car travel and, in principle, prevented thousands of tons of greenhouse gases from entering the air, Dario Pesenti, the town’s environment auditor, estimates.The number of children who are driven to school over all is rising in the United States and Europe, experts on both continents say, making up a sizable chunk of transportation’s contribution to greenhouse-gas emissions. The “school run” made up 18 percent of car trips by urban residents of Britain last year, a national survey showed.In 1969, 40 percent of students in the United States walked to school; in 2001, the most recent year data was collected, 13 percent did, according to the federal government’s National Household Travel Survey. Lecco’s walking bus was the first in Italy, but hundreds have cropped up elsewhere in Europe and, more recently, in North America to combat the trend.Towns in France, Britain and elsewhere in Italy have created such routes, although few are as extensive and long-lasting as Lecco’s.Section 2: Chinese-English Translation (汉译英) Translate the following passage into English.全球气候变化深刻影响着人类生存和发展,是各国共同面临的重大挑战。
2016年11月三级笔译实务试题及答案

2016年11月英语三级笔译实务试题及答案英译中Harper Lee was an ordinary woman as stunned as anybody by the extraordinary success of “To Kill a Mockingbird.”“It was like being hit over the head and knocked cold,” Lee — who died Friday at age 89,said during a 1964 inte rview. “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 at the same time I sort of hoped that maybe someone would like it enough to give me encouragement.”“To Kill a Mockingbird” may not be the Great American Novel. But it’s likely the most universally known work of fiction by an American author over the past 70 years, Lee was cited for her subtle, 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 this single book contained.“To Kill a Mockingbird” was a coming-of-age story, a courtroom thriller, a Southern novel, a period piece, a drama about class, and — of course — a drama of race.”All I want to be is the Jane Austen of South Alabama,” she once observed.The story of Lee is essentially the story of her book, and how she responded to it. She was a warm, vibrant and witty woman who played golf, fished, ate at McDonald’s, fed ducks by tossing seed corn out of a Cool Whip tub, read voraciously, and got about to plays and concerts. She just didn’t want to talk about it before an audience.“To Kill a Mockingbird” was an instant and ongoing hit, published in 1960, as the civil ri ghts movement was accelerating. It’s the story of a girl nicknamed Scout growing up in a Depression-era Southern town. A black man has been wrongly accused of raping a white woman, and Scout’s father, the resolute lawyer, defends him despite threats and th e scorn of many.Praised by The New Yorker as “skilled, unpretentious, and totally ingenious,” the book won the Pulitzer Prize and was made into a memorable movie in 1962.“Mockingbird” inspired a generation of young lawyers and social workers, was assigned in high schools all over the country and was a popular choice for citywide, or nationwide, reading programs, although it was also occasionally removed fromshelves for its racial content and references to rape.By 2015, sales topped 40 million copies.When the Library of Congress did a survey in 1991 on books that have affected people’s lives, “To Kill a Mockingbird” was second only to the Bible.Lee herself became more elusive to the public as her book became more famous. At first, she dutifully promoted her work. She spoke frequently to the press, wrote about herself and gave speeches, once to a class of cadets at West Point.But she began declining interviews in the mid-1960s and, until late in her life, firmly avoided making any public comment about her novel or her career.Her novel, while hugely popular, was not ranked by many scholars in the same category as the work of other Southern authors Decades after its publication, little was written about it in scholarly journals. Some critics have called the book naive and sentimental, whether dismissing the Ku Klux Klan as a minor nuisance or advocating change through personal persuasion rather than collective action.中译英本公司是一家大型国有房地产上市公司,国家一级房地产开发资质企业,连续五年荣膺中国房地产行业领导公司品牌。

2016年公共英语三级考试精选练习题及答案3

2016年公共英语三级考试精选练习题及答案3Text 3Too often young people get themselves employed quite by accident, not knowing what lies in the way of opportunity for promotion, happiness and security. As a result, they are employed doing jobs that afford them little or no satisfaction. Our school leavers face so much competition that they seldom care what they do as long as they can earn a living . Some stay long at a job and learn to like it ;others quite from one to another looking for something to suit them, the young graduates who leave the university look for jobs that offer a salary up to their expectation. Very few go out into the world knowing exactly what they want and realizing their own abilities. The reason behind all this confusion is that therenever has been a proper vocational guidance in our educational institution. Nearly all grope(摸索) in the dark and their chief concern when they look for a job is to ask what salary is like. They never bother to think whether they are suited for the job or, even more important, whether the job suits them, Having a job is more than merely providing yourself and your dependants with daily bread and some money for leisure and entertainment, It sets a pattern of life and, in many ways, determines social status in life, selection of friends, leisure and interest.In choosing a career you should first consider the type of work which will suit your interest .Noting is more pathetic than taking on a job in which you have no interest, for it will not only discourage your desire to succeed in life but also ruin your talents and ultimately make you an emotional wreck (受到严重伤害的人)and a bitter person.56. The reason why some people are unlikely to succeed in life is that they _____ .A. have ruined their talentsB. have taken on an unsuitable jobC. think of nothing but their salaryD. are not aware of their own potential57. The difficulty in choosing a suitable job lies mainly in that_____ .A. much competition has to be facedB. many employees have no working experienceC. the young people only care about how much they can earnD. schools fail to offer students appropriate vocational guidance58. Which of the following statements is most important according to the passage?A. Your job must suit your interest.B. Your job must set a pattern of life.C. Your job must offer you a high salary.D. Your job must not ruin your talents.59.The best title for this passage would be ____.A. What Can A Good Job OfferB. Earning A LivingC. Correct Attitude On Job-huntingD. How To Choose A Job60. The word “pathetic”in paragraph 2 most probably means ____ .A. splendidB. miserableC. disgustedD. touchingKEYS:56.B 答案可以在最后一段找到:“Nothing is more pathetic than taking on a job in which you have no interest, for it will not only discourage your desire to succeed in life but also ruin your talents.”因此有些人事业不成功的原因是选择了不合适的工作。
2016年公共英语三级测试题及答案

2016年公共英语三级测试题及答案SectionⅡ Reading Comprehension(40 minutes)Part ADirections:Read the following three texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET by drawing a thick line across the corresponding letter in the brackets.Text IFifteen years ago, I entered the Boston Globe, which was a temple to me then. It wasn’t easy getting hired. But once you were there, I found, you were in.Globe jobs were for life-guaranteed until retirement. For 15 years I had prospered there — moving from an ordinary reporter to foreign correspondent and finally to senior editor. I would have a lifetime of security is I struck with it. Instead, I had made a decision to leave. I entered my boss’s office. Would he rage? I wondered. He had a famous temper. “Matt, we have to have a talk,” I began awkwardly. “I came to the Globe when I was twenty-four. Now I’m forty. There’s a lot I want to do in life. I’m resigning.” “To another paper?” he asked. I reached into my coat pocket, but didn’t say anything. I handed him a letter that explained everything. It said that I was leaving to start a new media company. We were at a rare turning point in history. I want ed to be directly engaged in the change. “I’m glad for you,” he said, quite out of my expectation. “I just came from a board of directors meeting and it was seventy-five percent discouraging news. Some of that we can deal with. But much of it we can’t, ” he went on. “I wish you all the luck in the world,”he concluded. “And if it doesn’t work out, remember, your star is always high here.”Then I went out of his office, walking through the newsroom for more good-byes. Everybody was saying congratulations. Everybody —even though I’d be risking all on an unfamiliar venture: all the financial security I had carefully built up.Later, I had a final talk with Bill Taylor, chairman and publisher of the Boston Globe. He had turned the Globe into a billion-dollar pr operty. “I’m resigning, Bill, ”I said. He listened while I gave him the story. He wasn’t looking angry or dismayed either. Aftera pause, he said, “Golly, I wish I were in your shoes.”46. From the passage we know that the Globe is a famous _______.[A] newspaper [B] magazine[C]temple [ D ] church47. If the writer stayed with the Globe _________.[ A] he would be able to realize his lifetime dreams.[ B] he would let his long-cherished dreams fade away.[ C ] he would never have to worry about his future life.[ D] he would never be allowed to develop his ambitions.48. The writer wanted to resign because _________.[A] he had serious trouble with his boss.[ B ] he got underpaid at his job for the Globe.[ C ] he wanted to be engaged in the new media industry.[ D ] he had found a better paid job in a publishing house.49. When the writer decided to resign the Globe was faced with _______.[ A ] a trouble with its staff members[ B ] a shortage of qualified reporters[ C ] an unfavorable business situation[ D ]an uncontrollable business situation50. By “:I wish I were in your shoes.” (in the last paragraph) Bill Taylor meant that _______.[ A ] the writer was to fail.[ B] the writer was stupid[ C ] he would do the same if possible[D] he would rejec t the writer’s requestText 2Do you find it very difficult and painful to get up in the morning? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when your labor through your work you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues as: “Get up, Peter! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that Peter is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit if better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. M aybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning, but you have an important to do early in the day, risebefo re your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam and work better at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.51. If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably ________.[A] he is a lazy person.[ B ] he refuses to follow his own energy cycle.[C] he is not sure when his energy is low.[D] he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening.52. Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?[AJ Unawareness of energy cycles.[B] Familiar monologues.[C]A change in a family member’s energy cycle.[D] Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family members.53. If one wants to work efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should __________.[A]change his energy cycle[B] overcome his laziness[C]get up earlier than usual[D] go to bed earlier54. You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will __________.[A] help to keep your en ergy for the day’s work.[B] help you to control your temper early in the day[C] enable you to concentrate on your routine work[D] keep your energy your energy cycle under control all day55. Which of the following statements is NOT true?[A] Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one’s energy.[B] Dr. Kletman explains why people reach their peaks at different hours of day.[C] Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle.[D] Children have energy cycles, too.。
2016.5 catti英语笔译三级实务真题及答案

2016.5英语三级笔译实务真题及答案【Section 1】English-Chinese Translation (50 points)Translate the following passage into Chinese.Old people in Widou 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.”Since 2008, however, Senegal has been fighting back against the encroaching desert. Each year it has planted some two million seedling trees along a 545-kilometer, or 340-mile, ribbon of land that is the country’s segment of a major pan-African regeneration project, the Great Green Wall. First proposed in 2005, the program links Senegal and 10 other Saharan states in an alliance to plant a 15 kilometer-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 since 2008, from May to June, about 400 people 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, about 2 million 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, but 80 percent survive. Six years on, trees planted in 2008 are up to three meters, or 10 feet, tall. So far, 30,000 hectares, or about 75,000 acres, have been planted, including 4,000 hectares 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 placed 30 sensors 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 in 1954, before Senegal achieved its independence from France in 1960. The pumps fill giant basins that provide water for animals, tree nurseries and gardens where fruit and vegetables are grown.【参考译文】在蒂昂戈利(Thiengoly),老人们常说起过去树木繁多、遮天蔽日的景象。
