(1)(Its motive was religious, but he claimed also for it that it was a definitive technique, a method, capable of producing desired political results. Gandhi ’s attitude was not that of most Western pacifists. Satyagraha,) (2(the method Gandhi proposed and practiced, first evolved in South Africa, was a sort of non-violent warfare, a way of defeating the enemy without hurting him and without feeling or arousing hatred.) It entailed such things as civil disobedience, strikes, lying down in front of railway trains, enduring police charges without running away and without hitting back, and the like. Gandhi objected to “passive resistance ” as a translation of Satyagraha: in Gujarati, it seems, the word means “firmness in the truth ”. (3(In his early days Gandhi served as a stretcher-bearer on the British side in the Boer War, and he was prepared to do the same again in the war of 1914-1918.) Even after he had completely abjured violence he was honest enough to see that in war it is usually necessary to take sides. Since his whole political life centred round a struggle for national independence, he could not and, (4)(indeed, he did not take the sterile and dishonest line of pretending that in every war both sides are exactly the same and it makes no difference who wins.) Nor did he, like most Western pacifists, specialize in avoiding awkward questions. In relation to the late war, one question that every pacifist had a clear obligation to answer was: “What about the Jews? Are you prepared to see them exterminated? If not, how do you propose to save them without resorting to war?” (5)(I must say that I have never heard, from any Western pacifist, an honest answer to this question, though I have heard plenty of evasions, usually of the “you ’re another ” type.) But it so happens that Gandhi was asked a somewhat similar question in 1938 and that his answer is on record in Mr. Louis Fischer ’s Gandhi and Stalin. According to Mr. Fischer, Gandhi ’s view was that the German Jews ought to commit collective suicide, which “would have aroused the world and the people of Germany to Hitler ’s violence.”总体分析本文是一篇介绍甘地的和平主义的文章。

2017考研英语翻译模拟练习题（4）(1)(Any discussion of the American educational system would be less than complete if it did not mention the emphasis that many colleges and universities place upon the nonacademic, social,“extracurricular”aspect of education, often defined as personal growth.) Perhaps a useful way of viewing the notion of personal growth would be to picture the very large and general term “education”as being all-embracing, including as subsets within it academic and nonacademic components.This may be one of the most difficult concepts to convey to someone who is not intimately familiar with American higher education. Few educational systems in other countries place the same emphasis on this blend of academic and personal education. The majority of colleges and universities in the United States make some attempt to integrate personal and intellectual growth in the undergraduate years. (2)（If the ultimate goal of undergraduate education in America were simply to convey a set body of knowledge, the term of studies could undoubtedly be reduced. )Yet the terms of studies are extended in order to give students a chance to grow and develop in other ways.Numerous opportunities are made available to students to become involved in sports, student government, musical and dramatic organizations, and countless other organized and individual activities designed to enhance one’s personal growth and provide some recreation and enjoyment outside of the classroom. (3)（Experience with campus organizations and off-campus community involvement can be highly valuable in preparing international students for future leadership in their professional field upon their return home.)The typical American college’s support for extracurricular activity is perhaps unique in the world, This special educational dimension, beyond the classroom and laboratory experience, does not mean that extracurricular participation is required to gain an American degree. It remains an entirely optional activity, but (4)（it is noted here because Americans have traditionally viewed success in one’s role as a citizen as closely linked to a “well-rounded”life that incorporates a variety of social, athletic, and cultural activities into a person’s experience.)A great many American campuses and communities have organized special extracurricular activities for students from other countries. (5)（On most campuses, one can find an international club, which includes Americans,)where students can get to know and learn socially from students from other countries, as well as Americans. International students are almost always invited, through organized hospitality activities, into the homes of Americans living in or outside the academic community.答案1.如果对美国教育体系的讨论未能涉及许多学院及大学教育中非学术性的、社会的及“课程外”的方面，即其对个性成长的重视，那么这种讨论就不全面。

Too many high-school students—or their parents for them—choose theprofessional field, 13 both the relatively small proportion of workers in the professions and the extremelyhigh educational and personal 14 . The imagined or real prestige of a profession or a “White-collar”job is15 good reason for choosing it as life’s work. 16 , these occupations are not always well paid. Since alarge proportion of jobs are in mechanical and manual work, the 17 of young people should give serious18 to these fields.Before making an occupational choice, a person should have a general idea of what he wants 19 lifeand how hard he is willing to work to get it.

Mark youranswers on ANSWER SHEET 1. (10 points)Text 1The “new economic order”is a global one. Policymakers, educators, business, and industry are allconcerned with strengthening the United States for competition in this new arena. Career education has generallyfocused on helping people understand the relationship between education and work and acquire employabilityskills. Now people need assistance in realizing the opportunities and meeting the challenges of the internationalworkplace.The evolving global economy is based on a number of factors: decreasing transportation and communications costs, new political structures and economic alliances. The most important influence is theemergence of flexible, information-based technologies. Profound economic and socialchanges are creating newmarket standards (productivity, quality, variety, customization, convenience, timeliness) and integratingproducers and consumers into network for delivering goods and services globally or locally. Meeting thesestandards requires great changes in organizational structures, skill needs, and jobs.According to Carnevale, competitive organizations will be characterized by productivity, flexibility, speed,affordable quality, and customer focus. Many organizations will emphasize closely integrated workgroups,teamwork, and shared information. The need for certain types of workers is being reduced or eliminated. At thesame time, freer movement of some workers across national borders is escalating; other workers may engage in“electronic immigration,”interacting through telecommunications with their employers in other countries.The global economy will influence people’s lives whether or not they are employed in international firms.In the new economy, nations compete not only with each other’s economic systems, but also with each other’sresearch and development and educational systems. Global events affect domestic economies.Other characteristics of work in the new economy also have implications for career development. Managerswill become brokers/facilitators; there will be more technical specialists, and shorter, flatter career ladders.Instead of the old-style division of labor into discrete tasks, job functions will converge, and work teams willconsist of individuals who alternate expert, brokering, and leadership roles. Rewards will be based more on theperformance of teams and networks.A number of the skills needed for work in the global economy are reflected in current curricular emphasessuch as development of critical thinking skills, tech prep, the integration of vocational and academic education.Career educators can collaborate with vocational and academic educator and employers in documenting the needfor these skills and infusing them in a multidisciplinary approach. As Zwerling puts it, “the best liberal educationmay come to be seen as career education; the best career education may be seen to be liberal education.”Thechallenges of the global economy are an opportunity not only for work organizations to redesign themselvesacross reenvision ways to prepare people for life and for work.21.

广外2017年翻译硕士英语口译笔译考研真题
广外2017年翻译硕士英语口译笔译考研真题一、基础英语：1、单选。
今年单选大方向是词汇搭配，和语义理解，逻辑衔接这一块，从政府工作报告中摘取了许多原句，选项比较相近，像：with face to,in the face of,in the front of，in the ground of,on the basis of。
英语作文专八相近吧，词汇没有专八难。
细节分析，推断题的难度都差不多。
两篇选择题的阅读，两篇阅读是问答，第一篇问答文章讲的是Corot(一种星际探测器)问发送Corot的目的是什么。
第二问从文中抽了一句话，教你paraphrase it。
第二篇是讲新能源methanol代替燃油为汽车功能。
问题有三问。
第一问不太记得了，不过是细节定位题。
第二问是推断题，问从人们对新能源的批判声中能推断出什么东西。
第三问是与另一种相比，methanol的优势所在。
二、翻译基础：词汇翻译基本都出自英语点津，一周词汇整理好像都有。
英译中是讲leader的。
回忆一下开头好像是：people want and expect their leader stolead,and good leaders have the skill and talent to do just that : lead.中译英是讲的海上丝绸之路,古代形成，发展，繁荣，转折。
第一段大概是;海上丝绸之路因大量输出中国丝绸而闻名，又称“陶瓷之路”“茶叶之路”“香料之路”。
（这里有一句忘记了）它形成于秦汉，发展于魏晋南北朝，繁荣于唐宋，转折于明清。
中间一段海上贸易线开始于广州XX,XX 港口，远达印度洋斯里兰卡。
也是在秦汉形成，在唐宋繁荣这类。
于上面有所重复。
后面加了句，广州成为东方大港闻名世界。
还讲了，明清时期，广州是对外贸易的主要港口而且“一口通商”，贸易远达东非海岸线。
三、百科知识：4段话，4个主题，每个主题5个名词解释。
气候方面，巴黎协定衍生出来4个相关词汇。
2017考研英语翻译模拟题及答案(1)
出国留学考研网为大家提供2017考研英语翻译模拟题及答案(1)，更多考研资讯请关注我们网站的更新!2017考研英语翻译模拟题及答案(1)There is no question that science-fiction writers have become more ambitious, stylistically and thematically, in recent years. (46)But this may have less to do with the luring call of academic surroundings than with changing market conditions—a factor that academic critics rarely take into account.Robert Silverberg, a former president of The Science Fiction Writers of America, is one of the most prolific professionals in a field dominated by people who actually write for a living. (Unlike mystery or Western writers, most science-fiction writers cannot expect to cash in on fat movie sales or TV tie-ins.) (47)Still in his late thirties, Silverberg has published more than a hundred books, and he is disarmingly frank about the relationship between the quality of genuine prose and the quality of available outlet.By his own account, he was “an annoyingly verbal young man” from Brooklyn who picked up his first science-fiction book at the age of ten, started writing seriously at the age of thirteen, and at seventeen nearly gave up in despair over his inability to break into the pulp magazines. (48)At his parents’ urging, he enrolled in Columbia University, so that, if worst came to worst, he could always go to the School of Journalism and “get a nice steady job somewhere”.During his sophomore year, he sold his first science-fiction story to a Scottish magazine named Nebula. By the end of his junior year, he had sold a novel and twenty more stories. (49)?By the end of his senior year, he was earning two hundred dollars a week writing science fiction, and his parents were reconciled to his pursuit of the literary life.“I became very cynical very quickly,” he says. First I couldn’t sell anyt hing, then I could sell everything. The market played to my worst characteristics. An editor of a schlock magazine would call up to tell me he had a ten-thousand-word hole to fill in his next issue. I’d fill it overnight for a hundred and fifty dollars. I found that rewriting made no difference. (50)I knew I could not possibly write the kinds of things I admired as a reader—Joyce, Kafka, Mann—so I detached myself from my work.I was a phenomenon among my friends in college, a published, selling author. But they always asked, “When are you going to do something serious?” —meaning something that wasn’t science fiction—and I kept telling them, “ When I’m financially secure.”答案46.但是这一点与其说是与学术环境具有诱惑力的召唤有关，还不如说是与变化的市场状况有关——一这是一个学术评论家很少考虑的因素。

(10 points) The growth of the use of English as the world`s primary language for international communication has obviously been continuing for several decades. (46)But even as the number of English speakers expands further there are signs that the global predominance of the language may fade within the foreseeable future. Complex international, economic, technological and culture change could start to diminish the leading position of English as the language of the world market, and UK interests which enjoy advantage from the breath of English usage would consequently face new pressures. Those realistic possibilities are highlighted in the study presented by David Graddol (47)His analysis should therefore end any self-contentedness among those who may believe that the global position of English is so stable that the young generation of the United Kingdom do not need additional language capabilities. David Graddol concludes that monoglot English graduates face a bleak economic future as qualified multilingual youngsters from other countries are proving to have a competitive advantage over their British counterparts in global companies and organizations. Alongside that,(48)many countries are introducing English into the primary-school curriculum but British schoolchildren and students do not appear to be gaining greater encouragement to achieve fluency in other languages. If left to themselves, such trends will diminish the relative strength of the English language in international education markets as the demand for educational resources in languages, such as Spanish ,Arabic or Mandarin grows and international business process outsourcing in other language such as Japanese, French and German, spreads. (49)The changes identified by David Graddol all present clear and major challenges to UK`s providers of English language teaching to people of other countries and to broader education business sectors.The English language teaching sector directly earns nearly &1.3 billion for the UK in invisible exports and our other education related explores earn up to &10 billion a year more. As the international education market expands, the recent slowdown in the number of international students studying in the main English-speaking countries is likely to continue, especially if there are no effective strategic policies to prevent such slippage. The anticipation of possible shifts in demand provided by this study is significant:(50)It gives a basis to all organization which seek to promote the learning and very different operating environment.That is a necessary and practical approach. In this as in much else, those who wish to influence the future must prepare for it.。

2017年考研英语二翻译试题答案及解析My DreamMy dream has always been to work somewhere in an area between fashion and publishing. Two years before graduating from secondary school, I took a sewing and design course thinking that I would move on to a fashion design course. However, during that course I realised that I was not good enough in this area to compete with other creative personalities in the future, so I decided that it was not the right path for me. Before applying for university I told everyone that I would study journalism, because writing was, and still is, one of my favourite activities. But, to be absolutely honest, I said it, because I thought that fashion and me together was just a dream - I knew that no one, apart from myself, could imagine me in the fashion industry at all!2017年英语二的翻译题是一篇关于梦想的小短文，全文共5句话，前两句话比较简短且简单，后三句较长，但难度也都不大。

Answer the questions below each text by choosing [A], [B], [C] or [D] Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET (40 points) Text 1 The period of adolescence, i.e., the period between childhood and adulthood, may be long or short, depending on social expectations and on society’s definition as to what constitutes maturity and adulthood. In primitive societies adolescence is frequently a relatively short period of time, while in industrial societies with patterns of prolonged education coupled with laws against child labor, the period of adolescence is much longer and may include most of the second decade of one’s life. Furthermore, the length of the adolescent period and the definition of adulthood status may change in a given society as social and economic conditions change. Examples of this type of change are the disappearance of the frontier in the latter part of the nineteenth century in the United States, and more universally, the industrialization of an agricultural society. In modern society, ceremonies for adolescence have lost their formal recognition and symbolic significance and there no longer is agreement as to what constitutes initiation ceremonies. Social ones have been replaced by a sequence of steps that lead to increased recognition and social status. For example, grade school graduation, high school graduation and college graduation constitute such a sequence, and while each step implies certain behavioral changes and social recognition, the significance of each depends on the socio-economic status and the educational ambition of the individual. Ceremonies for adolescence have also been replaced by legal definitions of status roles, right, privileges and responsibilities. It is during the nine years from the twelfth birthday to the twenty-first that the protective and restrictive aspects of childhood and minor status are removed and adult privileges and responsibilities are granted. The twelve-year-old is no longer considered a child and has to pay full fare for train, airplane, theater and movie tickets. Basically, the individual at this age loses childhood privileges without gaining significant adult rights. At the age of sixteen the adolescent is granted certain adult rights which increases his social status by providing him with more freedom and choices. He now can obtain a driver’s license; he can leave public schools; and he can work without the restrictions of child labor laws. At the age of eighteen the law provides adult responsibilities as well as rights; the young man can now be a soldier, but he also can marry without parental permission. At the age of twenty-one the individual obtains his full legal rights as an adult. He now can vote, he can buy liquor, he can enter into financial contracts, and he is entitled to run for public office. No additional basic rights are acquired as a function of age after majority status has been attained. None of these legal provisions determine at what point adulthood has been reached but they do point to the prolonged period of adolescence. 41. The period of adolescence is much longer in industrial societies because ________. [A] the definition of maturity has changed [B] the industrialized society is more developed [C] more education is provided and laws against child labor are made(C) [D] ceremonies for adolescence have lost their formal recognition and symbolic significance 42. Former social ceremonies that used to mark adolescence have given place to ________. [A] graduations from schools and colleges [B] social recognition [C] socio-economic status(A) [D] certain behavioral changes 43. No one can expect to fully enjoy the adulthood privileges until he is ________. [A] eleven years old [B] sixteen years old [C] twenty-one years old(C) [D] between twelve and twenty-one years old 44. Starting from 22, ________. [A] one will obtain more basic rights [B] the older one becomes, the more basic rights he will have [C] one won’t get more basic rights than when he is 21(C) [D] one will enjoy more rights granted by society 45. According to the passage, it is true that ________. [A] in the late 19th century in the United States the dividing line between adolescence and adulthood no longer existed [B] no one can marry without the permission of his parents until the age of twenty-one [C] one is considered to have reached adulthood when he has a driver’s license(A) [D] one is not free from the restrictions of child labor laws until he can join the arm Text 2 Well, no gain without pain, they say. But what about pain without gain? Everywhere you go in America, you hear tales of corporate revival. What is harder to establish is whether the productivity revolution that businessmen assume they are presiding over is for real. The official statistics are mildly discouraging. They show that, if you lump manufacturing and services together, productivity has grown on average by 1.2% since 1987. That is somewhat faster than the average during the previous decade.

Whi le I was there, I visited a eucalyptus forest that, in February, was the scene of an appalling wildfire. Perhaps naively, I had expected to find that many trees had been killed. They hadn’t. They had blackened bark, but were otherwise looking rather well, many of them wreathed in new young leaves. This prompted me to consider fireand the role it plays as a force of nature.Fossil charcoals tell us that wildfires have been part of life on Earth for as long as there have been plants on land. That’s more than 400 million years of fire. Fire was here long before arriviste plants like grasses; it pre-dated the first flowers. And without wanting to get mystical about it, fire is, in many respects, a kind of animal, albeit an ethereal one. Like any animal, it consumes oxygen. Like a sheep or a slug, it eats plants. But unlike a normal animal, it’s a shape-shifter. Sometimes, it merely nibbles a few leaves; sometimes it kills grown trees. Sometimes it is more deadly and destructive than a swarm of locusts.The shape-shifting nature of fire makes it hard to study, for it is not a single entity. Some fires are infernally hot; others, relatively cool. Some stay at ground level; others climb trees. Moreover, fire is much more likely to appear in some parts of the world than in others. Satellite images of the Earth show that wildfires are rare in, say, northern Europe, and common in parts of central Africa and Australia. (These days many wildfires are started by humans, either on purpose or by accident. But long before our ancestors began to throw torches or cigarette butts, fires were started by lightning strikes, or by sparks given off when rocks rub together in an avalanche.)Once a fire gets started, many factors contribute to how it will behave. The weather obviously has a huge effect: winds can fan flames, rains can quench them. The lie of the land matters, too: fire runs uphill more readily than it goes down. But another crucial factor is what type of plants the fire has to eat.It’s common knowledge that plants regul arly exposed to fire tend to have features that help them cope with it—such as thick bark, or seeds that only grow after being exposed to intense heat or smoke.

华盛顿一个非赢利性的研究机构―国家睡眠基金会最近一项民意调查显示，三分之二的美国人夜间睡眠都达不到专家建议的时间。
斯坦福大学医学院睡眠障碍中心主任威廉·蒙特医生说，这意味着睡眠不足“在这个国家已到了流行病地步。
不管是由失眠症引起的，还是当今流行开夜车的生活方式造成的，睡眠不足都会使人判断力下降，创造力缺乏，记忆力减退，甚至得忧郁症。
它也会使你更容易受病毒和细菌的感染。
〕芝加哥大学的研究人员发现，睡眠不足只要超过六个夜晚，就会损害新陈代谢和激素分泌的功能。
久而久之，这会引发或加重高血压以及该疾病的常见形式----乙型糖尿病。
然而对有些人来说，问题不在于保证睡眠时间，而在于能否入睡。
失眠往往是不良睡眠习惯的结果。
例如，周末，睡几个小时的懒觉就会打乱人体的生物钟，使人晚上兴奋不眠，而早晨昏沉沉。
午睡时间长也会如此。
而短时间午睡（20分钟左右）以补偿前晚欠缺的睡眠或准备今晚熬夜，则是有益的。
要培养易于入睡的习惯，可试试以下劝告：第一：坚持每晚定时睡觉。
第二：睡前尽量避免紧张脑力活动，诸如研究厚厚的公文等。
相反，试试深呼吸，瑜咖功或轻轻伸展一下身体以减轻一天的压力。
专家们还建议在床头拒放一个笔记本，记下第二天要办的琐事。
每晚睡前坚持这样做，就会让身心都做好睡眠准备第三：给自己一个良好环境，消除干扰的噪音，创造一个放松的氛围。
保持凉爽―人们通常在华氏650-690的房间内睡得最好。
