2014年CATTI三级笔译汉译英真题出自:《第67届联合国大会中方立场文件》中关于能源安全方面的内容:Section2:Translate Chinese into English外交部:2012年第67届联合国大会中方立场文件(五)能源安全5. Energy Security能源安全同世界经济的稳定发展和各国人民的福祉息息相关。

在当前国际金融危机背景下,维护全球能源安全对有效应对国际金融危机冲击、推动世界经济全面复苏和长远发展具有重要意义。

Energy security has a close bearing on the stability and growth of the world economy and the well-being of people in all countries. Against the backdrop of the global financial crisis,ensuring energy security is vital to effectively tackling the impact of the crisis and promoting the full recovery and long-term development of the world economy.国际社会应树立互利合作、多元发展、协同保障的新能源安全观,共同稳定能源等大宗商品价格、防止过度投机和炒作,保障各国特别是发展中国家能源需求,维护能源市场正常秩序。

同时,各国应改善能源结构,加强先进能源技术的研发和推广,大力发展清洁和可再生能源,在相关领域积极开展国际合作。

To this end,the international community should foster a new energy security outlook featuring mutually beneficial cooperation,diversified development and coordinated supply. Joint efforts must be made to stabilize the prices of energy and other commodities and prevent excessive speculation and market hype,so as to meet the energy demands of all countries,particularly the developing countries,and maintain order in the energy market. Meanwhile,countries should improve their own energy mix,promote the research,development and diffusion of advanced technologies,vigorously develop clean and renewable energies,and actively advance international cooperation in relevant fields.中国政府高度重视能源和能源安全问题。

2004-2013CATTI笔译实务三级参考答案(FREE)

2004-2013CATTI笔译实务三级参考答案(FREE)

参考译文2004.5按照法律规定,在英格兰、苏格兰和威尔士,家长一定要使自己的孩子在5岁至16岁期间在学校或其它地方接受全日制教育,在北爱尔兰则为4岁至16岁。

大约93%的学生享受公家提供经费的免费教育,其他学生上独立学校,这种学校靠学生家长缴费来筹措经费。

许多三、四岁的孩子上幼儿园和幼儿班(在英格兰还有小学校里的小班)。

某些民办的日托幼儿园和学前游戏小组(大都是家长组织的)也提供学前教育。

政府已作出承诺,要大力发展学前教育,使所有的儿童在开始上学的时候在识字和识数方面都有一点基础。

在英格兰和威尔土,政府从1998年9月开始为所有4岁的孩子提供免费幼儿教育,如果他们的父母需要的话。

政府还承诺,随后要分阶段实现为三岁的孩子提供免费幼儿教育的目标。

为达到这些目标,地方教育当局与民间志愿办学者合作,已制定出“早期教育发展计划”。

制订这类计划意在表明民办幼儿园、游戏小组和学校可以怎样通过合作来最好地为孩子和家长服务。

从1999年4月起,早期教育发展组织和发展计划将扩大范围,以提供与早期教育相结合的优良的儿童保健。

此外,政府还在英格兰与地方当局以及其它部门合作建立“优秀早期教育中心”,以展示教育与儿童保健方面的好的做法。

在苏格兰,地方教育当局一直领导这方面的工作。

1998年8月以来,他们与民间志愿办学者合作,进行规划,协调学前教育,提供更多名额。

政府计划在1998年冬季前使所有的儿童在上学前一年享受到良好的非全日制教育。

北爱尔兰义务教育入学年龄较低,为4岁,每年9月学生按统一日期入学。

一项由教育局与图书馆管理局、其它法定办学单位和民间志愿办学者联合执行的学前教育发展计划已经增加了学前教育学生的名额。

It isn't often that one has the chance to congratulate a noted woman writer on her 80th birthday. So on October 5 last year, when I went to Bing Xin's house, I felt very excited. I explained that I hoped she would tell me something about how she became a poet. "I haven't written poetry for many years," she said smiling. "But I still love to read good poetry."Bing Xin was fortunate to have parents who encouraged her to study and write. When she was attending a women's college in Beijing in 1919, an event occurred which changed the whole course of her life. That was the May 4th Movement, a patriotic democratic movement started by students in Beijing. The mass demonstrations made a deep impression on her. She threw herself into the struggle and was put in charge of publicity by the Student Union. She wrote poems, articles and stories, attacking imperialism and feudalism in its various forms.Going to the U.S. in 1923 to study literature, she wrote down her impressions on the way and during her stay there. These were published in the collection To Little Readers. The book brought her instant fame, not only because she was a woman writer, but also because of the noble sentiments in the book. Quite a few younger writers say it was Bing Xin's writings that started them on the road they have since followed.2004.11几个星期前,我问一个14岁的朋友,在学校的学习情况。

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 an d 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 Université Blaise 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 trans piration 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.Section 2: Chinese-English Translation (50 points)Translate the following passage into English.健康是促进人的全面发展的必然要求。

真题2011年的三级笔译Section 1 English-Chinese Translation ( 50 points )Translate the following passage into Chinese.This month, the United Nations Development Program made water and sanitation the centerpiece of its flagship publication, the Human Development Report.Claims of a "water apartheid," where poor people pay more for water than the rich, are bound to attract attention. But what are the economics behind the problem, and how can it be fixed? In countries that have trouble delivering clean water to their people, a lack of infrastructure is often the culprit. People in areas that are not served by public utilities have to rely on costlier ways of getting water, such as itinerant water trucks and treks to wells. Paradoxically, as the water sources get costlier, the water itself tends to be more dangerous. Water piped by utilities - to the rich and the poor alike - is usually cleaner than water trucked in or collected from an outdoor tank.The problem exists not only in rural areas but even in big cities, said Hakan Bjorkman, program director of the UN agency in Thailand. Further, subsidies made to local water systems often end up benefiting people other than the poor, he added.The agency proposes a three-step solution. First, make access to 20 liters, or 5 gallons, of clean water a day a human right. Next, make local governments accountable for delivering this service. Last, invest in infrastructure to link people to water mains.The report says governments, especially in developing countries, should spend at least 1 percent of gross domestic product on water and sanitation. It also recommends that foreign aid be more directed toward these problems. Clearly, this approach relies heavily on government intervention, something Bjorkman readily acknowledged. But there are some market-based approaches as well.By offering cut-rate connections to poor people to the water mainline, the private water utility in Abidjan, Ivory Coast, has steadily increased access to clean water, according to the agency's report. A subsidy may not even be necessary, despite the agency's proposals, if a country can harness the economic benefits of providing clean water.People who receive clean water are much less likely to die from water-borne diseases - a common malady in the developing world - and much more likely to enjoy long, productive, taxpaying lives that can benefit their host countries. So if a government is trying to raise financing to invest in new infrastructure, it might find receptive ears in private credit markets - as long as it can harness the return. Similarly, private companies may calculate that it is worth bringing clean water to an area if its residents are willing to pay back the investment over many years.In the meantime, some local solutions are being found. In Thailand, Bjorkman said, some small communities are taking challenges like water access upon themselves. "People organize themselves in groups to leverage what little resources they have to help their communities," he said. "That's especially true out in the rural areas. They invest their money in revolving funds and saving schemes, and they invest themselves to improve their villages. "It is not always easy to take these solutions and replicate them in other countries, though. Assembling a broad menu of different approaches can be the first step in finding the right solution for a given region or country.出处:.nytimes./2006/11/14/business/worldbusiness/14iht-glob15.3535740.htmlSection 2 Chinese-English Translation ( 50 points )Translate the following passage into English.即使遇到丰收年景,对中国来说,要用世界百分之七的耕地养活全球五分之一的人口仍是一项艰巨的任务。

英语三级《笔译实务》试卷(实务科目)2016.11Section 1: English-Chinese Translation (50 points)Translate the following passage into Chinese.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 interview. “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 rights 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 the 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 from shelves 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 shebegan 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.Section 2: Chinese-English Translation (50 points)Translate the following passage into English.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。

考试感想:综合:可以看出我两次综合成绩都不高,大部分人都会上70,80+的也大有人在,所以我这个综合可以说是非常差了。

这里总结教训就是三个字:背单词!!!我之前是个不爱背单词的人,一般都凭着平时多看,然后看熟了自然就记住了,这种方法应对高考还有四六级什么的问题都不大,但是去年底考三笔的时候,我看着综合卷子真的欲哭无泪,选择题有几道中四个选项我一个都不认识,或者是眼熟但是搞不清意思,这就跟不认识是一样的。

所以去年底考完三笔我痛下决心,当天晚上就开始背单词。

背单词这事我是真的不喜欢,所以没有买单词书,因为我知道我买了肯定也不看,所以就下了APP背单词。

我曾经用过拓词,感觉界面很简洁,非常不错,后来开始用百词斩,算是比较有特色的APP,也还不错。

2015年5月CATTI英语三级笔译实务试题英译汉:For generations,coal has been the lifeblood of this mineral-rich stretch of eastern Utah.Mining families proudly recall all the years they toiled underground.Supply companies line the town streets.Above the road that winds toward the mines,a soot-smudged miner peers out from a billboard with the slogan“Coal=Jobs.”But recently,fear has settled in.The state’s oldest coal-fired power plant,tucked among the canyons near town,is set to close,a result of new,stricter federal pollution regulations.As energy companies tack away from coal,toward cleaner,cheaper natural gas, people here have grown increasingly afraid that their community may soon slip away. Dozens of workers at the facility here,the Carbon Power Plant,have learned that they must retire early or seek other jobs.Local trucking and equipment outfits are preparing to take business elsewhere.“There are a lot of people worried,”said Kyle Davis,who has been employed at the plant since he was18.But Rocky Mountain Power,the utility that operates the plant,has determined that it would be too expensive to retrofit the aging plant to meet new federal standards on mercury emissions.The plant is scheduled to be shut by April2015.For the last several years,coal plants have been shutting down across the country, driven by tougher environmental regulations,flattening electricity demand and a move by utilities toward natural gas.The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that the stricter emissions regulations for the plants will result in billions of dollars in related health savings,and will have a sweeping impact on air quality.“Coal plants are the single largest source of dangerous carbon pollution in the United States,and we have ready alternatives like wind and solar to replace them,”said Bruce Nilles,director of the Sierra Club’s Beyond Coal campaign,which wants to shut all of the nation’s coal plants.For many here,coal jobs are all they know.The industry united the area during hard times,too,especially during the dark days after nine men died in a2007mining accident some35miles down the highway.Virtually everyone around Price knew the men,six of whom remain entombed in the mountainside.But there is quiet acknowledgment that Carbon County will have to change—if not now,soon.Pete Palacios,who worked in the mines for43years,has seen coal roar and fade here. Now86,his eyes grew cloudy as he recalled his first mining job.He was12,and earned$1a day.“I’m retired,so I’ll be fine.But these young guys?”Pete Palacios said,his voice trailing off.汉译英:天柱县位于贵州省东部,是川渝黔通往两广、江浙的重要门户。

It was 800,000 euros, a little more than $1 million, in the red. There was no cash on hand topay for anything — and there was work that needed to be done.But then an amazing thing happened, he said. Just as the health department was about to close down the day care center because it didn’t have a proper kitchen,Bernardo Benítez,a construction worker, offered to put up the walls and the tiles free. Then,Maria JoséCarmona, an adult education teacher, stepped in to clean the place up.And somehow, the volunteers just kept coming. Every Sunday now,the residents of thistown in southwest Spain — young and old — do what needs to be done, whether it is cleaningthe streets, raking the leaves, unclogging culverts or planting trees in the park.“It was an initiative from them,” said Mr. García. “Day to day we talked to people and wetold them there was no money. Of course, they could see it. The grass in between thesidewalks was up to my thigh. “Higuera de la Serena is in many ways a microcosm of Spain’s troubles. Just as Spain’snational and regional governments are struggling with the collapseof the construction industry, overspending on huge capital projects and a pileup of unpaid bills, the sameproblems afflict many of its small towns.But what has brought Higuera de la Serena a measure of fame in Spain is that the residents have stepped up where their government has failed. Mr. García says his phone rings regularly from other town officia ls who want to know how to do the same thing. He is serving without pay, as are the town’s two other elected officials. They are also forgoing the cars and phones that usually come with the job.“We lived beyond our means,” Mr. García said. “We invested i n public works that weren’tsensible. We are in technical bankruptcy.” Even some money from the European Union thatwas supposed to be used for routine operating expenses and lastuntil 2013 has already been spent, he said.Higuera de la Serena, a cluster of about 900 houses surrounded by farmland, andtraditionally dependent on pig farming and olives, got swept up in the giddy days of theconstruction boom. It built a cultural center and invested in a small nursing home. But the projects were plagued by delays and cost overruns.The cultural center still has no bathrooms. The nursing home, a whitewashed buildingsits on the edge of town, still unopened. Together, they account for some $470,000 of debtowed to the bank. But the rest of the debt is mostly the unpaidbills of a town that was not keeping up with its expenses. It owes for medical supplies, for diesel fuel, for road repair,for electrical work, for musicians who played during holidays.Higuera de la Serena is not completely without workers. It still has a half-time librarian, twohalf-time street cleaners, someone part-time for the sports complex, a secretary and anadministrator, all of whom are paid through various financing streams apart from the town. But the town once had a work force twice the size. And when someone is ill, volunteers haveto step in or the gym and sports complex — open four hours a day —must close.Section2: Chinese-English Translation (汉译英)(50 points),,年来,中国经济持续快速发展,经济实力、综合国力、人民生活水平迈上新的台阶,国家面貌发生举世瞩目的历史性变化,为促进亚洲和世界经济增长作出了重要贡献。

Drive down Canyon Road and stop for halalmeat or Filipino pork b elly at adjacent markets.Along the highway, browse the aisles of a giant Asian super market stocking fresh napa cabbageand mizuna or fresh kimchi. Head toward downto wn and you’ll see loncheras — taco trucks —on street corners and hear Spanish banda music. On the city’s northern edge, you can sample Indian chaat.Welcome to Beaverton, a Portland suburb that is home to Oregon’s fastest growing im migrant population. Once a rural community, Beaverton, population 87,000, is no w the sixth largestcity in Oregon — with immigration rates higher than those of Portla nd, Oregon’s largest city.Best known as the world headquarters for athletic shoe company Nike, Beaverton ha s changeddramatically over the past 40 years. Settled by immigrants from northern E urope in the 19thcentury, today it is a place where 80 languages from Albanian to Urd u are spoken in the publicschools and about 30 percent of students speak a language besides English, according toEnglish as a Second Language program director Wei Wei Lou.Beaverton’s wave of new residents began arriving in the 1960s, with Koreans and Tej anos(Texans of Mexican origin), who were the first permanent Latinos. In 1960, Bea verton’s population of Latinos and Asians was less than 0.3 percent. By 2000, Beaver ton hadproportionately more Asian and Hispanic residents than the Portland metro are a. Today, Asianscomprise 10 percent and Hispanics 11 percent of Beaverton’s popula tion.Mayor Denny Doyle says that many in Beaverton view the immigrants who are rapidly reshapingBeaverton as a source of enrichment.“Citizens here especially in the arts and culture community think it’s fantastic that w e have all these different possibilities here,” he says.Gloria Vargas,50, a Salvadoran immigrant, owns a popular small restaurant, Gloria’s SecretCafé, in downtown Beaverton. “I love Beaverton,” she says.“I feel like I belong here.” Hermother moved her to Los Angeles as a teenager in 1973 , and she moved Oregon in 1979. Shelanded a coveted vendor spot in the Beaverton Farmers Market in 1999. Now in addition torunning her restaurant, she has one of th e most popular stalls there, selling up to 200Salvadoran tamales — wrapped in bana na leaves rather than corn husks — each Saturday.“Once they buy my food, they always come back for more,” she says.“It’s pretty relaxed here,” says Taj Suleyman,28, born and raised in Lebanon, and recentlytransplanted to Beaverton to start a job working with immigrants from many countries. HalfMiddle Eastern and half African, Suleyman says he was attracted to Beaverton specificallybecause of its diversity. He se rves on a city-sponsored Diversity Task Force set up by MayorDoyle.Mohammed Haque, originally from Bangladesh, finds Beaverton very welcoming. His d aughter,he boasts, was even elected her high school’s homecoming queen.South Asians such as Haque have transformed Bethany, a neighborhood north of Be averton.It is dense with immigrants from Gujarat, a state in India and primary sourc e for the first waveof Beaverton’s South Asian immigrants.The first wave of South Asian immigrants to Beaverton, mostly Gujaratis from India, a rrived inthe 1960s and 1970s, when the motel and hotel industry was booming. Many bought smallhotels and originally settled in Portland, and then relocated to Beaverton for better schools andbigger yards. The second wave of South Asians arrived during t he high-tech boom of the1980s, when the software industry, and Intel and Tektronix, really took off.Many of Beaverton’s Asians converge at Uwajimaya, a 30,000-square-foot supermar ket nearcentral Beaverton. Bernie Capell, former special events coordinator at Uwajim aya, says thatmany come to shop for fresh produce every day. But the biggest group of shoppers atUwajimaya, she adds, are Caucasians.Beaverton’s Asian population boasts a sizable number of Koreans, who began to arri ve in thelate 1960s and early 1970s.According to Ted Chung, a native of Korea and Beaverton resident since 1978, three t hingsstand out about his fellow Korean immigrants. Upon moving to Beaverton, they j oin a Christianchurch — often Methodist or Presbyterian — as a gathering place; they push their children to excel in school; and they shun the spotlight.Chung says he and his fellow Korean émigrés work hard as small businessmen — own inggroceries, dry cleaners, laundromats, delis, and sushi shops — and are frugal so t hey can sendtheir children to a leading university.Most recently, immigrants from Central and South America, as well as refugees from I raq andSomalia, have joined the Beaverton community.Many Beaverton organizations help immigrants.The Beaverton Resource Center helps all immigrants with health and literacy services . TheSomali Family Education Center helps Somalis and other African refugees to get settled. Andone Beaverton elementary school even came up with the idea of a “sew in”— parents ofstudents sewing together — to welcome Somali Bantu parents and bri dge major culturaldifferences.Historically white churches, such as Beaverton First United Methodist Church, offer im migrationministries. And Beaverton churches of all denominations host Korean- or Spa nish-languageservices.Beaverton’s Mayor Doyle wants refugee and immigrant leaders to participate in the t own’s decision-making. He set up a Diversity Task Force whose mission is “to build in clusive andequitable communities in the City of Beaverton.” The task force is working to create amulticultural community center for Beavertonians of all backgrounds.The resources and warm welcome that Beaverton gives immigrants are reciprocated in the affection that many express for their new home.Kaltun Caynan,40, a Somali woman who came to Beaverton in 2001 fleeing civil war, is anoutreach c oordinator for the Somali Family Education Center.“I like it so much,” she said,cheerfully.“Nobody discriminate[s against] me, everybody smiling at me.”2013年5月三级笔译实务真题Section 1: English-Chinese Translation (50points)It didn’t take long for Manuel García Murillo, a bricklayer who took over as mayor her e last June,to realize that his town was in trouble.

You must choose the one which you think fits best.Questions 51-56 are based on the following passage.As viewed from space, the Earth's distinguishing characteristics are its blue waters and whit.e clouds. Enveloped by an ocean of air consisting of 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen, the planet is the only one in our solar system known to harbor life. Circling the Sun at an average distance of 149 million km (93 million miles), the Earth is the third planet from the Sun and the fifth largest planet in the solar system. Its rapid spin and molten nickel-iron core give rise to an extensive magnetic field which, coupled with the atmosphere, shields us from nearly ail of the harmful radiation coming from the Sun and other stars. Most meteors burn up in the Earth's atmosphere before they can strike the surface. The planet's active geological processes have left no evidence of the ancient pelting it almost certainly received soon after it was formed. The Earth has a single natural satellite - the Moon.51. Approximately how much of the Earth's atmosphere is nitrogen?A. One-fourth.B. One- half.C. Three-fourths.D. All of it.52. Which of the following helps to create the Earth's magnetic fields?A. Its blue waters.B. Its nitrogen atmosphere.C. Its molten metal core.D. The Moon.53. What two factors help protect the Earth from radiation?A. Magnetic field and atmosphere.B. Rapid spin and molten iron-nickel core.C. The Sun and the Moon.D. Blue waters and white clouds.54. Why does the Earth show almost no signs of having been hit by numerous meteors in the past?A. Humans have built over most of the craters.B. Most meteors fell into the ocean and not on land.C. The Earth's magnetic field repelled most meteors.D. The Earth's natural geologic activity has eliminated most traces.55. The main idea of this passage is that .A. there are life-supporting characteristics on the EarthB. the Earth is predominantly waterC. the Earth has no common characteristics with other planetsD. the Earth is the only planet with a moon56. This selection leads one to believe that the Earth .A. never gets hit by meteorsB. always gets hit by meteorsC. was hit by meteors some time in the pastD. may be bombarded by meteors in the near futureQuestions 57-62 are based on the following passage.Since life began eons ago, thousands of creatures have come and gone. Some, such as the dinosaurs, became extinct due to naturally changing ecologic conditions. More recent threats to life forms are humans and their activities. Man has drained marshes, burned prairies, dammed and diverted rivers. Some of the more recent casualties of man's expansion have been the dodo, great auk, passenger pigeon, Irish elk, and Steller's sea cow.Sadly, we can no longer attribute the increasing decline in our wild animals and plant species to "natural" processes. Many species are dying out because of exploitation, habitat alteration or destruction, pollution, or the introduction of new species of plants and animals to an area. As mandated by Congress, protecting endangered species, and restoring them to the point where their existence is no longerjeopardized, is the primary objective of the U.S. Fish and MriZdlife Service's Endangered Species Program.57.

According to this passage, .A. man is the cause of some animal extinctionB. animals often bring about their own extinctionC. Congress can absolutely end extinction of animalsD. a law is more important than human responsibility62. Which of the following is NOT a cause of increasing decline of wild animal population?A. Exploitation.B. Pollution.C. Habitat alteration.D. Congressional Law.Questions 63-68 are based on the following passage.The "Karat" marking on jewelry tells you what proportion of-gold is mixed with other metals. If 14 parts of gold are mixed with 10 parts of base metal, the combination is called 14- Karat (14K) gold. The higher the Karat ratings the higher the proportion of gold in the object. The lowest Karat gold that can be marketed in the United States is 10-Karat gold. Jewelry does not have to be marked with its Karat quality, but most of it is. If there is a Karat quality mark, next to it must be the U.S. registered trademark of the person or company that will stand behind the mark, as required by the National Gold and Silver Stamping Act.63.

Their scores improved significantly. The other 8 students (who did not receive the beta blockers) improved only slightly. Second-time test-takers nation wide had average improvements which were similar to those in Faugel's non-beta blocker group. Beta blockers are prescription drugs which have been around for 25 years. These medications, which interfere with the effects of adrenalin, have been used for heart conditions and for minor stress such as stage fright. Now they are used for test anxiety. These drugs seem to help test-takers who have low scores because of test fright, but not those who do not know the material. Since there can be side effects from these beta blockers, physicians are not ready to prescribe them routinely for all test-takers.69. Where is the only place a person can obtain beta blockers?A. Supermarket.B. Convenience store.C. Stationary storeD.Doctor's office70. Why are beta blockers not prescribed regularly?A. Students are expected to do poorly.B. There are side effects.C.

"Re_administration" in this passage refers to giving .A. the test again to people without administering beta blockersB. the test again to both groups after beta blockers have been administered to one groupC. the test to both groups of test-takers and then giving them beta blockersD. the beta blockers without retesting73. What possible use for betdi i,lockers was NOT discussed in this passage?A. Test anxiety.B. Pain relief.C. Minor stress.D. Heart conditions.74. Beta blockers work on some physical and emotional symptoms because they .A. fool a person into a healthier stanceB. interfere with the effects of adrenalinC. produce side effects worse than the symptomsD. primarily change human thought processes75. Faugel's research showed that beta blockers given to hissample .A. increased scores less than the national averageB. increased scores the same as the national averageC. decreased scoresD. increased scores much more than the national averageSection 3: Cloze Test (20 Points)In the following passage, there are 20 blanks representing words that are missing from the context. You are to provide each. of the blanks with the missing word. The time for this section is 20 minutes.When I tell people that I'm a professor of communication, they often are confused (1)what the term "communication" means. Many people think mass communication is the (2) type of communication, but mass communication is only one form of communication. The study of mass communication focuses on messages that are (3) over (4) such as television, newspapers, and radio. Other areas of (5) focus on the messages individuals send to one another. Some of the major contexts in which communication is studied (6) the interpersonal context, the organizational context, and the intercultural context.

《全国翻译资格考试三级英语笔译实务历年真题汉译英分级译文解码》日前由翻译学院英语翻译教材研发中心编撰完成。

全国翻译资格考试英语三级笔译是从2003年11月开始在全国范围内启动的一项国家级考试,也是目前我国外语类考试中最顶尖的一项。

翻译学院自此项考试首次开考,就承接了相应的备考培训工作,也被国家人事部外文局指定为应考培训单位;到今年为止学院已经积累了近9年的培训经验。

本次编撰的《译文解码》一书,对2005年5月至2012年5月共15 套真题的汉译英部分进行了全面系统的分级整理(从2003年11月至2004年11月的试题,其命题难度把握欠妥,因此未列入分析范围),将试题中的段落截成一个个完整的句子,然后将语句进行分级处理,最终按照“基础考点”,“中等考点”和“难度考点”三个级别为考生编写出这个手册;它可以帮助考生对考试难度有一个清晰明确的认识,然后考生可以根据考委会的命题思路结合自身翻译的实际水平应对考试。

以下列举本书中部分翻译经典例句,供广大翻译爱好者参考《全国翻译资格考试三级笔译实务历年真题汉译英分级译文解码》前言全国翻译资格考试英语三级笔译是从2003年11月开始在全国范围内启动的一项考试,是目前我国外语类考试中最顶尖的一项考试。

由于该考试启动初期,考委会对考生的翻译水平估计不足,从2003年11月至2004年11月进行的三次三级笔译实务考试的命题难度把握欠妥。

因此,我们在整理历年真题时将这三次的试题没有列在我们的试题分析范围内。

我们从2005年5月至2012年5月共15套真题的汉译英部分进行了全面系统的分级整理,将试题中的段落截成一个个完整的语句,然后将句子进行分级处理,最终按照“基础考点”,“中等考点”和“难度考点”三个级别为考生编写出这个手册--《全国翻译资格考试三级笔译实务历年真题汉译英分级译文解码》。

这个手册可以使考生对考试的难度有一个比较清晰明确的认识。

这样,我们的考生就可以根据考委会命题的思路与难度的要求做到心中有数并根据自身翻译的实际水平应对考试。

The Money Ran Out; Then the Villagers Stepped In
HIGUERA DE LA SERENA, Spain —It didn’t take long for Manuel Garc ía Murillo, a bricklayer who took over as mayor here last June, to realize that his town was in trouble. It was 800,000 euros, a little more than $1 million, in the red. There was no cash on hand to pay for anything —and there was work that needed to be done.
But then an amazing thing happened, he said. Just as the health department was about to close down the day care center because it didn’t have a proper kitchen, Bernardo Benítez, a construction worker, offered to put up the walls and the tiles free. Then, Maria José Carmona, an adult education teacher, stepped in to clean the place up.
And somehow, the volunteers just kept coming. Every Sunday now, the residents of this town in southwest Spain —young and old —do what needs to be done, whether it is cleaning the streets, raking the leaves, unclogging culverts or planting trees in the park.
“It was an initiative from them,”said Mr. García. “Day to day we talked to people and we told them there was no money. Of course, they could see it. The grass in between the sidewalks was up to my thigh. “
Higuera de la Serena is in many ways a microcosm of Spain’s troubles. Just as Spain’s national and regional governments are struggling with the collapse of the construction industry, overspending on huge capital projects and a pileup of unpaid bills, the same problems afflict many of its small towns.
But what has brought Higuera de la Serena a measure of fame in Spain is that the residents have stepped up where their government has failed.
