英语三级笔译证书考试汉译英真题精选（24篇）及参考译文Passage 1“限车令”矛头直指数量庞大的私家车。

北京通过摇号的方式控制新车数量，但首月摇号的申请人数高达21万。

而上海曾试图通过车牌拍卖控制车数，但许多人跑到杭州、苏州上牌。

很多消费者认为，在公共交通不发达的时候，贸然限车不是特别实际的做法。

交通拥堵的根本原因在于城市交通建设跟不上发展，只是针对私车制定交通管理措施，很难取得实际效果。

随着城市的快速外扩，很多人不得不住到离城区很远的地方，目前这些地方的公共交通还不发达，这是私家车快速扩张的原因之一。

因此，大力发展城市公共交通才是解决交通拥堵问题最有效的途径。

(2011年5月试题) 参考译文“Car Restriction”aims at the large number of private cars. Beijing now tries to control the number of new cars by means of drawing lots, but the number of applicants in the first month reached 210，000. Shanghai has tried to enforce the restriction through auction of car plates, but many Shanghai people got their plates from Hangzhou and Suzhou. A lot of consumers believe that it is not practical to rashly control the number of cars as public transportation is underdeveloped. The root cause of traffic jam lies in the fact that urban transportation construction cannot keep up with the times. It will be fruitless to take traffic control measuresconcerning private cars only.With the rapid expansion of cities, many people have to live in the suburbs far away from the centre of the city, but public transportation in the suburbs is not yet developed, which is one of the causes behind the rapid increase of private cars. Therefore, the most effective solution to congestion is to vigorously develop public transportation in cities.Passage 2嫦娥的故事2010年10月1日我国成功发射“嫦娥二号”卫星，直接将其送入地月转移轨道，为无人月球车*登月，乃至中国宇航员登陆打下了基础。

catti三级笔译真题

2006年5月人事部三级笔译真题第一部分英译汉Freed by warming, waters once locked beneath ice are gnawing at coastal settlements around the Arctic Circle.In Bykovsky, a village of 457 on Russia's northeast coast, the shoreline is collapsing, creeping closer and closer to houses and tanks of heating oil, at a rate of 15 to 18 feet a year."It is practically all ice - permafrost - and it is thawing." For the four million people who live north of the Arctic Circle, a changing climate presents new opportunities. But it also threatens their environment, their homes and, for those whose traditions rely on the ice-bound wilderness, the preservation of their culture.A push to develop the North, quickened by the melting of the Arctic seas, carries its own rewards and dangers for people in the region. The discovery of vast petroleum fields in the Barents and Kara Seas has raised fears of catastrophic accidents as ships loaded with oil and, soon, liquefied gas churn through the fisheries off Scandinavia, headed to markets in Europe and North America. Land that was untouched could be tainted by pollution as generators, smokestacks and large vehicles sprout to support the growing energy industry.Coastal erosion is a problem in Alaska as well, forcing the United States to prepare to relocate several Inuit villages at a projected cost of $100 million or more for each one.Across the Arctic, indigenous tribes with traditions shaped by centuries of living in extremes of cold and ice are noticing changes in weather and wildlife. They are trying to adapt, but it can be confounding.In Finnmark, Norway's northernmost province, the Arctic landscape unfolds in late winter as an endless snowy plateau, silent but for the cries of the reindeer and the occasional whine of a snowmobile herding them.A changing Arctic is felt there, too. "The reindeer are becoming unhappy," said Issat Eira, a 31-year-old reindeer herder.Few countries rival Norway when it comes to protecting the environment and preserving indigenous customs. The state has lavished its oil wealth on the region, and Sami culture has enjoyed something of a renaissance.And yet no amount of government support can convince Mr. Eira that his livelihood, intractably entwined with the reindeer, is not about to change. Like a Texas cattleman, he keeps the size of his herd secret. But he said warmer temperatures in fall and spring were melting the top layers of snow, which then refreeze as ice, making it harder for his reindeer to dig through to the lichen they eat."The people who are making the decisions, they are living in the south and they are living in towns," said Mr. Eira, sitting inside his home made of reindeer hides. "They don't mark the change of weather. It is only people who live in nature and get resources from nature who mark it."A push to develop the North, quickened by the melting of the Arctic seas, carries itsown rewards and dangers for people in the region. The discovery of vast petroleum fields in the Barents and Kara Seas has raised fears of catastrophic accidents as ships loaded with oil and, soon, liquefied gas churn through the fisheries off Scandinavia, headed to markets in Europe and North America.

一些历年的三笔真题

人事部三级笔译（CATTI）2008.11完形填空原文One of Nature's most fascinating mysteries is how pigeon s find their way home over vast distances.No matter how far away they are taken, they almost always return to their lofts. Now German scientists believe they have discovered how the birds do it. Research has revealed that tiny iron structures in their beaks allow them to analyse the earth's magnetic field - much like a compass.Through the signals picked up, the birds can work out where they are and set out on the best course home.As well as pigeons, many migrating birds display a remarkable ability to fly thousands of miles to return to a specific garden or tree year after year. Scientists are suggesting they may have similar iron- containing cells in their beaks.The amazing abilities of homing pigeons made them invaluable during both world wars, with both sides using them to send messages over enemy lines. Thirty-two of the 250,000 pigeons used by UK forces in World War Two were even awarded medals for valour.In 2005, the film Valiant recorded the exploits of a group of fictional wartime homing pigeons.In the past, experts have suggested the birds use the sun and stars to navigate, although in 2004 researchers found that many follow roads rather than their internal compass to plan their route.Italian scientists also recently found that the birds can create 'odour maps' of areas they fly over, which may help them find their way. However scientists have long believed that they can in some way use the natural magnetism of the earth to navigate. The recent study by German scientists has revealed how this may be possible.人事部三级笔译（CATTI）2006.11英译汉真题For all the natural and man-made disasters of the past year, travelers seem more determined than ever to leave home.Never mind the tsunami devastation in Asia last December, the recent earthquake in Kashmir or the suicide bombings this year in London and Bali, among other places on or off the tourist trail. The number of leisure travelers visiting tourist destination s hit by trouble has in some cases bounced back to a level higher than before disaster struck."This new fast recovery of tourism we are observing is kind of strange," said John Koldowski, director for the Strategic Intelligence Center of theBangkok-based Pacific Asia Travel Association. "It makes you think about the adage that any publicity is good publicity."It is still too soon to compile year-on-year statistics for the disasters of the past 12 months, but travel industry experts say that the broad trends are already clear. Leisure travel is expected to increase by nearly 5 percent this year, according to the World Tourism and Travel Council."Tourism and travel now seem to bounce back faster and higher each time there is an event of this sort," said Ufi Ibrahim, vice president of the London-based World Tourism and Travel Council. For London, where suicide bombers killed 56 and wounded 700 on July 8, she said, "It was almost as if people who stayed away after the bomb attack then decided to come back twice."Early indicators show that the same holds true for other disaster-struck destinations. Statistics compiled by the Pacific Asia Travel Association, for example, show that monthly visitor arrivals in Sri Lanka, where the Dec. 26, 2004, tsunami left more than 30,000 people dead or missing, were higher than one year earlier for every month from March through August of this year.A case commonly cited by travel professionals as an early example of the trend is Bali, where 202 people were killed in bombings targeting Western tourists in October 2002. Visitor arrivals plunged to 993,000 for the year after the bombing, but bounced back to 1.46 million in 2004, a level higher than the two years before the bomb, according to the Pacific Asia Travel Association.Even among Australians, who suffered the worst casualties in the Bali bombings, the number of Bali-bound visitors bounced back within two years to the highest level since 1998, according the Pacific Asia Travel Association. Bali was hit againthis year by suicide bombers who killed 19 people in explosions at three restaurants.Visits are also on the upswing to post-tsunami Thailand, where the giant waves killed 5,400 and left more than 5,000 missing.Although the tsunami killed more than 500 Swedes on the Thai resort island of Phuket, the largest number of any foreign nationality to die, Swedes are returning to the island in larger numbers than last year, according to My Travel Sweden, a Stockholm-based group that sends 600,000 tourists overseas annually and claim s a 28 percent market share for Sweden."We were confident that Thailand would eventually bounce back as a destination, but we didn"t think that this year it would come back even stronger than last year," said Joakim Eriksson, director of communication for My Travel Sweden. "We were very surprised because we really expected a significant decline." Eriksson said My Travel now expects a 5 percent increase in visitors to both Thailand and Sri Lanka this season compared with the same season last year. This behavior is a sharp change from the patterns of the 1990s, Eriksson said. "During the first Gulf war we saw a sharp drop in travel as a whole, and the same after Sept. 11," Eriksson said. "Now the main impact of terrorism or disasters is a change in destination."人事部三级笔译（CATTI）2007.11英译汉真题One of the biggest decisions Andy Blevins has ever made, and one of the few he now regrets, never seemed like much of a decision at all. It just felt like the natural thing to do.In the summer of 1995, he was moving boxes of soup cans, paper towels and dog food across the floor of a supermarket warehouse, one of the biggest buildings here in southwest Virginia. The heat was brutal. The job had sounded impossible when he arrived fresh off his first year of college, looking to make some summer money, still a skinny teenager with sandy blond hair and a narrow, freckled face.But hard work done well was something he understood, even if he was the first college boy in his family. Soon he was making bonuses on top of his $6.75 an hour, more money than either of his parents made. His girlfriend was around, and so were his hometown buddies. Andy acted more outgoing with them, more relaxed. People in Chilhowie noticed that.It was just about the perfect summer. So the thought crossed his mind: maybe it did not have to end. Maybe he would take a break from college and keep working. He had been getting C's and D's, and college never felt like home, anyway."I enjoyed working hard, getting the job done, getting a paycheck," Mr. Blevins recalled. "I just knew I didn't want to quit."So he quit college instead, and with that, Andy Blevins joined one of the largest and fastest-growing groups of young adults in America. He became a college dropout, though nongraduate may be the more precise term.Many people like him plan to return to get their degrees, even if few actually do. Almost one in three Americans in their mid-20's now fall into this group, up from one in five in the late 1960's, when the Census Bureau began keeping such data. Most come from poor and working-class families.That gap had grown over recent years. "We need to recognize that the most serious domestic problem in the United States today is the widening gap between the children of the rich and the children of the poor," Lawrence H. Summers, the president of Harvard, said last year when announcing that Harvard would give full scholarships to all its lowest-income students. "And education is the most powerful weapon we have to address that problem." Andy Blevins says that he too knows the importance of a degree. Ten years after trading college for the warehouse, Mr. Blevins, 29, spends his days at the same supermarket company. He has worked his way up to produce buyer, earning $35,000 a year with health benefits and a 401(k) plan. He is on a path typical for someone who attended college without getting a four-year degree. Men in their early 40's in this category made an average of $42,000 in 2000. Those with a four-year degree made $65,000.Mr. Blevins says he has many reasons to be happy. He lives with his wife, Karla, and their year-old son, Lucas, in a small blue-and-yellow house in the middle of a stunningly picturesque Appalachian valley."Looking back, I wish I had gotten that degree," Mr. Blevins said in hissoft-spoken lilt. "Four years seemed like a thousand years then. But I wish I would have just put in my four years."Why so many low-income students fall from the college ranks is a question without a simple answer. Many high schools do a poor job of preparing teenager s for college. Tuition bills scare some students from even applying and leave others with years of debt. To Mr. Blevins, like many other students of limited means, every week of going to classes seemed like another week of losing money ."The system makes a false promise to students," said John T. Casteen III, the president of the University of Virginia, himself the son of a Virginia shipyard worker.人事部三级笔译（CATTI）2008.5英译汉真题Europe Pushes to Get Fuel From FieldsARDEA, Italy — The previous growing season, this lush coastal field near Rome was filled with rows of delicate durum wheat, used to make high-quality pasta. Today it overflows with rapeseed, a tall, gnarled weedlike plant bursting with coarse yellow flowers that has become a new manna for European farmers: rapeseed can be turned into biofuel.Motivated by generous subsidies to develop alternative energy sources — and a measure of concern about the future of the planet —Europe‟s farmers are beginning to grow crops that can be turned into fuels meant to produce feweremission s than gas or oil. They are chasing their counterparts in the Americas who have been raising crops for biofuel for more than five years.“This is a much-needed boost to our economy, our fa rms,” said Marcello Pini, 50, a farmer, standing in front of the rapeseed he planted for the first time. “Of course, we hope it helps the environment, too.”In March, the European Commission, disappointed by the slow growth of the biofuels industry, approv ed a directive that included a “binding target” requiring member countries to use 10 percent biofuel for transport by 2020 — the most ambitious and specific goal in the world.Most European countries are far from achieving the target, and are introducing incentives and subsidies to bolster production.As a result, bioenergy crops have replaced food as the most profitable crop in several European countries. In this part of Italy, for example, the government guarantees the purchase of biofuel crops at 22 euros for 100 kilograms, or $13.42 for 100 pounds — nearly twice the 11 to 12 euros for 100 kilograms of wheat on the open market in 2006. Better still, farmers can plant biofuel crops on “set aside” fields, land that Europe‟s agriculture policy would otherwis e require be left fallow.But an expert panel convened by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization pointed out that the biofuels boom produces benefits as well as trade-offs and risks — including higher and wildly fluctuating food prices. In some markets, grain prices have nearly doubled.“At a time when agricultural prices are low, in comes biofuel and improves the lot of farmers and injects life into rural areas,” said Gustavo Best, an expert at the Food and Agriculture Organization in Rome. “But as the scale grows and the demand for biofuel crops seems to be infinite, we‟re seeing some negative effects and we need to hold up a yellow light.”Josette Sheeran, the new head of the United Nations World Food program, which fed nearly 90 million people in 2006, said that biofuels created new problems. “An increase in grain prices impacts us because we are a major procurer of grain for food,” she said. “So biofuels are both a challenge and an opportunity.”In Europe, the rapid conversion of fields that once grew wheat or barley to biofuel crops like rapeseed is already leading to shortages of the ingredients for making pasta and brewing beer, suppliers say. That could translate into higher prices in supermarkets.“New and increasing demand for bioenergy production has put high pressure on the whole world grain market,” said Claudia Conti, a spokesman for Barilla, one of the larg est Italian pasta makers. “Not only German beer producers, but Mexican tortilla makers have see the cost of their main raw material growing quickly to historical highs.”Some experts are more worried about the potential impact to low-income consumers. In the developing world, the shift to more lucrative biofuel crops destined for richer countries could create serious hunger and damage theenvironment if wild land is converted to biofuel cultivation, the agriculture panel concluded.But officials at the European Commission say they are pursuing a measured course that will prevent some of the price and supply problems seen in American markets.In a recent speech, Mariann Fischer Boel, the European agriculture and rural development commissioner, said that the 10 percent target was “not a shot in the dark,” but was carefully chosen to encourage a level of growth for the biofuel industry that would not produce undue hardship for Europe‟s poor. She calculated that this approach would push up would raw material prices for cereal by 3 percent to 6 percent by 2020, while prices for oilseed might rise 5 percent to 18 percent. But food prices on the shelves would barely change, she said.Yet even as the European program begins to harvest biofuels in greater volume, homegrown production is still far short of what is needed to reach the 10 percent goal: Europe‟s farmers produced an estimated 2.9 billion liters, or 768 million gallons, of biofuel in 2004, far shy of the 3.4 billion gallons generated in the United States in the period. In 2005, biofuel accounted for around 1 percent of Europe‟s fuel, according to European statistics, with almost all of that in Germany and Sweden. The biofuel share in Italy was 0.51 percent, and in Britain, 0.18 percent.That could pose a threat to European markets as foreign producers like Brazil or developing countries like Indonesia and Malaysia try to ship their biofuels to markets where demand, subsidies and tax breaks are the greatest.Ms. Fischer Boel recently acknowledged that Europe would have to import at least a third of what it would need to reach its 10 percent biofuels target. Politicians fear that could hamper development of a local industry, while perversely generating tons of new emissions as “green” fuel is shipped thousands of kilometers across the Atlantic, instead of coming from the farm next door.Such imports could make biofuel far less green in other ways as well — for example if Southeast Asian rainforest is destroyed for cropland.Brazil, a country with a perfect climate for sugar cane and vast amounts of land, started with subsidies years ago to encourage the farming of sugarcane for biofuels, partly to take up “excess capacity” in its flagging agricultural sector. The auto industry jumped in, too. In 2003, Brazilian automakers started producing flex-fuel cars that could run on biofuels, including locally produced ethanol. Today, 70 percent of new cars in the country are flex-fuel models, and Brazil is one of the largest growers of cane for ethanol.Analysts are unsure if the Brazilian achievement can be replicated in Europe —or anywhere else. Sugar takes far less energy to convert to biofuel than almost any product.Yet after a series of alarming reports on climate change, the political urgency to move faster is clearly growing.With an armload of incentives, the Italian government hopes that 70,000 hectares, or 173,000 acres, of land will be planted with biofuel crops in 2007, and 240,000 hectares in 2010, up from zero in 2006.Mr. Pini, the farmer, has converted about 25 percent of his land, or 18 hectares, including his “set aside” land, to Europe‟s fastest-growing biofuel crop, rapeseed. He still has 50 hectares in grain and 7 in olives.He has discovered other advantages as well. In Italy‟s finicky food culture, food crops have to look good and be high quality to sell— a drought or undue heat can mean an off year. Crops for fuel, in contrast, can be ugly or stunted. “You need fewer seeds and it‟s much easier to grow,” he said.人事部三级笔译考试的4个特别提醒一、语序（英译汉）我们上课在解决表达问题时提出了4个技巧，就是断结构、换主语、动词化和调顺序，基本上是在维护顺翻的情况下，做微小的调整，这样产生的一个错误倾向是，一些同学在考试时一味顺翻，不顾中文的表达习惯，造成失分。

2008年11月人事部三级笔译真题

2008年11月人事部三级笔译真题第一部分英译汉With plant species disappearing at an alarming rate, scientists and governments are creating a global network of plant banks to store seeds and sprouts that may be needed for man to adapt the world’s food supply to climate ch ange.This week, the flagship of that effort, the Global Seed Vault, received its first seeds here—millions of them. Bored into the middle of a snow-topped Arctic mountain in Longyearbyen, Norway, the seed valut has as its goal the storing of every kind of seed from every collection on the planet.While seeds will remain in ordinary seed banks, the vault’s stacked gray boxes will form a backup in case natural disaster or human error erases the seeds from the outside world.For year, a hodgepodge network of seed banks has been amassing seed and schoot collection. Labs in Mexico banked corn species. Those in Nigeria banked cassava.These scattered efforts are being consolidated and systematized, in part because of better technology to preserve plant genes and in part because of rising alarm about the trend of climate change and its impact on world food production.This week the urgency of the problem was underscored as wheat prices reached record highs and wheat stockpiles dropped to the lowest level in 35 years. Droughts and new diseases cut wheat production in many parts of the world.A well-organized system of plant banks could be crucial in responding to climate crises because it could identify strains that are better able to cope with a changed environment. At the Global SeedVault, hundreds of boxes containing seeds from Syria to Mexico were being moved this week into a freezing vault to be placed in suspended animation. Collectively they harbor a vast range of characteristics, including the ability to withstand drier, warmer climates.Seeds must be stored at minus 20 degrees Celsius (minus 4 Fahrenheit). Underground in Longyearbyen, just 1,000 kilometers, or 600 miles, from the North Pole, the seeds will stay frozen regardless of power failures.The vault was built by Norway, and its operations are financed by government and private donations including $20 million from Britain, $12 million from Australia, $11 million from Germany and $6.5 million from the United States.The effort to preserve a wide variety of plant genes in banks is particularly urgent because many farms now grow just one or two crops. They are particularly vulnerable to pests, disease and climate change.Just as efforts to preserve biodiversity increase, economics encourages farmers to focus on fewer crops. But the stored seeds many contain traits that will prove advantageous in another time.“You need a system to conserve the variety, so it doesn’t become extinct,” said Cary Fowler president of the Global Crop Diversity Trust, the non-profit group that runs the vault. ”A farmer may make a bowl of porridge with the last seeds of a strain that is of no use to him, and then it’s gone. And potentially those are exactly the seeds we will need a decade later.”Scientists are also working to learn more about the genetic characteristics of each banked seed—crucial knowledge that is often not recorded. Ultimately plant breeders will be able to consult a global database to find seeds suitable for the particular challenge confronting a region, like corn with a stalk that is strong enough to resist high winds or wheat that needs less water.第二部分汉译英在上海的现代化轻轨列车上，上班族有的在打手机，有的在用笔记本电脑，有的在观赏车内顺平显示器上播放的电影。

2008年11月翻译资格考试三级英语笔译实务真题及答案

2008年11月翻译资格考试三级英语笔译实务真题及答案试题部分：Section 1: English-Chinese Translation (英译汉) Translate the following passage into Chinese.LONGYEARBYEN, Norway —With plant species disappearing at an alarming rate, scientists and governments are creating a global network of plant banks to store seeds and sprouts, precious genetic resources that may be needed for man to adapt the world’s food supply to climate change.This week, the flagship of that effort, the Global Seed Vault near here, received its first seeds, millions of them. Bored into the middle of a frozen Arctic mountain topped with snow, the vault’s goal is to store and protect samples of every type of seed from every seed collection in the world.As of Thursday, thousands of neatly stacked and labeled gray boxes of seeds —peas from Nigeria, corn from Mexico —reside in this glazed cavelike structure, forming a sort of backup hard drive, in case natural disasters or human errors erase the seeds from the outside world.Descending almost 500 feet under the permafrost, the entrance tunnel to the seed vault is designed to withstand bomb blasts and earthquakes. An automated digital monitoring system controls temperature and provides security akin to a missile silo or Fort Knox. No one person has all the codes for entrance.The Global Vault is part of a broader effort to gather and systematize information about plants and their genes, which climate change experts say may indeed prove more valuable than gold. In Leuven, Belgium, scientists are scouring the world for banana samples and preserving their shoots in liquid nitrogen before they become extinct.A similar effort is under way in France on coffee plants. A number of plants, most from the tropics, do not produce seeds that can be stored.For years, a hodgepodge network of seed banks has been amassing seed and shoot collections in a haphazard manner. Labs in Mexico banked corn species. Those in Nigeria banked cassava. Now these scattershot efforts are being urgently consolidated and systematized, in part because of better technology to preserve plant genes and in part because of the rising alarm about climate change and its impact on world food production.“We started thinking about this post-9/11 and on the heels of Hurricane Katrina,” said Cary Fowler, president of the Global Crop Diversity Trust, a nonprofit group that runs the vault. “Everyone was saying, why didn’t anyone prepare for ahurricane before? We knew it was going to happen.“Well, we are losing biodiversity every day —it’s a kind of drip, dr ip, drip. It’s also inevitable. We need to do something about it.”This week the urgency of the problem was underscored as wheat prices rose to record highs and wheat stores dropped to the lowest level in 35 years. A series of droughts and new diseases cu t wheat production in many parts of the world. “The erosion of plants’ genetic resources is really going fast,” said Dr. Rony Swennen, head of the division of crop biotechnology at the Catholic University of Leuven in Belgium, who has preserved half of the world’s 1,200 banana types. “We’re at a critical moment and if we don’t act fast, we’re going to lose a lot of plants that we may need.”The United Nations International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources, ratified in 2004, created a formal global network for banking and sharing seeds, as well as for studying their genetic traits. Last year, its database received thousands of new seeds.A system of plant banks could be crucial in responding to climate crises since it could identify genetic material and plant strains better able to cope with a changed environment.Here at the Global Vault, hundreds of gray boxes containing seeds from places ranging from Syria to Mexico were moved this week into a freezing vault to be placed in suspended animation. They harbor a vast range of qualities, like the ability to withstand drier, warmer climate.Section 2: Chinese-English Translation (汉译英) Translate the following passage into English.在上海的现代化轻轨列车上，上班族有的在打手机，有的在用笔记本电脑，有的在观赏车内顺平显示器上播放的电影。

人事部三级笔译

人事部三级笔译（CATTI）2007.11英译汉真题One of the biggest decisions Andy Blevins has ever made, and one of the few he now regrets, never seemed like much of a decision at all. It just felt like the natural thing to do.In the summer of 1995, he was moving boxes of soup cans, paper towels and dog food across the floor of a supermarket warehouse, one of the biggest buildings here in southwest Virginia. The heat was brutal. The job had sounded impossible when he arrived fresh off his first year of college, looking to make some summer money, still a skinny teenager with sandy blond hair and a narrow, freckled face.But hard work done well was something he understood, even if he was the first college boy in his family. Soon he was making bonuses on top of his $6.75 an hour, more money than either of his parents made. His girlfriend was around, and so were his hometown buddies. Andy acted more outgoing with them, more relaxed. People in Chilhowie noticed that.It was just about the perfect summer. So the thought crossed his mind: maybe it did not have to end. Maybe he would take a break from college and keep working. He had been getting C's and D's, and college never felt like home, anyway."I enjoyed working hard, getting the job done, getting a paycheck," Mr. Blevins recalled. "I just knew I didn't want to quit."So he quit college instead, and with that, Andy Blevins joined one of the largest and fastest-growing groups of young adults in America. He became a college dropout, though nongraduate may be the more precise term.Many people like him plan to return to get their degrees, even if few actually do. Almost one in three Americans in their mid-20's now fall into this group, up from one in five in the late 1960's, when the Census Bureau began keeping such data. Most come from poor and working-class families.That gap had grown over recent years. "We need to recognize that the most serious domestic problem in the United States today is the widening gap between the children of the rich and the children of the poor," Lawrence H. Summers, the president of Harvard, said last year when announcing that Harvard would give full scholarships to all its lowest-income students. "And education is the most powerful weapon we have to address that problem."Andy Blevins says that he too knows the importance of a degree. Ten years after trading college for the warehouse, Mr. Blevins, 29, spends his days at the same supermarket company. He has worked his way up to produce buyer, earning $35,000 a year with health benefits and a 401(k) plan. He is on a path typical for someone who attended college without getting a four-year degree. Men in their early 40's in this category made an average of $42,000 in 2000. Those with a four-year degree made $65,000.Mr. Blevins says he has many reasons to be happy. He lives with his wife, Karla, and their year-old son, Lucas, in a small blue-and-yellow house in the middle of a stunningly picturesque Appalachian valley."Looking back, I wish I had gotten that degree," Mr. Blevins said in his soft-spoken lilt. "Four years seemed like a thousand years then. But I wish I would have just put in my four years."Why so many low-income students fall from the college ranks is a question without a simple answer. Many high schools do a poor job of preparing teenagers for college. Tuition bills scare some students from even applying and leave others with years of debt. To Mr. Blevins, like many other students of limited means, every week of going to classes seemed like another week of losing money ."The system makes a false promise to students," said John T. Casteen III, the president of the University of Virginia, himself the son of a Virginia shipyard worker.One of the biggest decisions Andy Blevins has ever made, and one of the few he now regrets, never seemed like much of a decision at all. It just felt like the natural thing to do.安迪布莱文思曾做过的最大的、同时也是他现在极少为之后悔的决定之一，看起来一点也不像个决定。

5月翻译资格考题三级英语笔译实务试卷及答案

5月翻译资格考题三级英语笔译实务试卷及答案试题部分：Section 1: English-Chinese Translation (英译汉) Translate the following passage into Chinese.Freed by warming, waters once locked beneath ice are gnawing at coastal settlements around the Arctic Circle.In Bykovsky, a village of 457 residents at the tip of a fin-shaped peninsula on Russia's northeast coast, the shoreline is collapsing, creeping closer and closer to houses and tanks of heating oil，at a rate of 15 to 18 feet, or 5 to 6 meters, a year. Eventually, homes will be lost as more ice melts each summer, and maybe all of Bykovsky, too.“It is practically all ice — permafrost —and it is thawing. ” The 4 million Russian people who live north of the Arctic Circle are feeling the effects of warming in many ways. A changing climate presents new opportunities, but it also threatens their environment, the stability of their homes, and，for those whose traditions rely on the ice-bound wilderness, the preservation of their culture.A push to develop the North, quickened by the melting of the Arctic seas, carries its own rewards and dangers for people in the region. Discovery of vast petroleum fields in the Barents and Kara Seas has raised fears of catastrophic accidents as ships loaded with oil or liquefied gas churn through the fisheries off Scandinavia, headed for the eager markets of Europe and North America. Land that was untouched could be tainted by air and water pollution as generators, smokestacks and large vehicles sprout to support the growing energy industry.Coastal erosion is a problem in Alaska as well, forcing the United States to prepare to relocate several Inuit coastal villages at a projected cost of US $ 100 million or more for each one.Across the Arctic, indigenous tribes with cultural traditions shaped by centuries of living in extremes of cold and ice are noticing changes in weather and wildlife. They are trying to adapt, but it can be confounding.In Finnmark, the northernmost province of Norway, the Arctic landscape unfolds in late winter as an endless snowy plateau, silent but for the cries of the reindeer and the occasional whine of a snowmobile herding them.A changing Arctic is felt there, too, though in another way. "The reindeer arebecoming unhappy," said Issat Eira, a 31-year-old reindeer herder.Few countries rival Norway when it comes to protecting the environment and preserving indigenous customs. The state has lavished its oil wealth on the region, and as a result Sami culture has enjoyed something of a renaissance.And yet no amount of government support can convince Eira that his livelihood, intractably entwined with the reindeer, is not about to change. Like a Texas cattleman he keeps the size of his herd secret. But he said warmer temperatures in fall and spring are melting the top layers of snow， which then refreeze as ice, making it harder for his reindeer to dig through to the lichen they eat."The people who are making the decisions, they are living in the south and they are living in towns，”said Eira, sitting beside a birch fire inside his lavvu, a home made of reindeer hides. "They don't mark the change of weather. It is only people who live in nature and get resources from nature who mark it. ”Section 2: Chinese-English Translation (汉译英) Translate the following passage into English.维护世界和平，促进共同发展，谋求合作共赢，是各国人民的共同愿望，也是不可抗拒的当今时代潮流。

三级笔译汉译英答案

第一篇How I Serve the PassengersOnce I heard a man politely ask a woman in front of him at the door of the crowded bus, "Are you getting off the bus, ma'am?" The woman made no response. "Are you getting off." he asked again. The woman still did not reply. "Getting off, or not?" he shouted impatiently but there was still no response. "Are you deaf, or mute?" As he was annoyed, the man gave her a slight push. The woman glared at him angrily and hit back.At this point, it suddenly occurred to me that on the route of Bus No. 60 was a factory for the physically disabled, and that woman might be a deaf-mute from that factory. I told the man what I was thinking and wrote on a slip of paper: "Excuse me, but he wants to get off. He's asked you several times but you didn't hear him, did you?" When I showed it to the woman, she nodded and made way for him.After that, I began to pay more attention to those who look like deaf-mutes. I even learned some frequently used sign language from them. In this way, not only can I offer them better service and communicate with them, but also prevent misunderstanding or disputes between them and the other passengers.第二篇Knowledge CreationChina is a developing country. Although great progress has been made in the acquisition and application of science, technology and other modern knowledge, there is still an obvious gap between China and the developed countries. For this reason the Chinese government has formulated a strategy of "modernizing China through science and education" and is accelerating the pace of scientific and technological advancement and the updating of knowledge so as to catch up with the developed world as quickly as possible. The essence of knowledge lies in innovation. Only by constantly creating new knowledge and technology can a new industrial revolution be sparked and the rapid development of the economy be made possible. In the new century, factors such as human resources, culture, education, economic and social management are playing an increasingly important role in economic and social development. Only by continually carrying out reform and innovation in theories and technologies and achieving new breakthroughs can we inject new energy and vitality into economic and social development, more efficiently explore and make use of human and natural resources, and create more material and spiritual wealth for the benefit of human society.第三篇The Word Failure Doesn't Exist in My DictionaryMilu is always an optimist. No matter how badly he loses a game, he always remains optimistic.When asked how he responds to failure, Milu's reply was "What does failure mean?" Then he declared, "This word doesn't exist in my dictionary.""I never think about these bad things. Even in my dreams I always dream of good things. One must have confidence in oneself, and be optimistic. Only then will there be hope. I am very optimistic about the prospect of the Chinese team and about my own prospects.""In my view, it is perfectly normal to either lead or lag behind during a match. At halftime, I didn't give any thought to the possibility that we might lose. All I thought was how to change tactics, replace players, score more goals and finally win the game."No one can understand what Milu is doing, because the way we are educated in China makes it impossible for us to understand him!第四篇WaterThe earth's water resources are composed of sea water, underground water, ice and snow, and waters in rivers and lakes, totaling about 1.4 billion cubic kilometers in all. Although sea water makes up 97.2 percent of this, it cannot be used directly for human consumption or for production; water in solid forms, such as ice, snow, etc, is distributed mainly in the uninhabited Arctic and Antarctic areas; and the total amount of water in rivers, lakes and underground comprises only 0.6 percent of the earth's water, of which a considerable amount is undrinkable. Indeed, the fresh water that is usable is merely 0.34 percent of the fresh water reserves of the earth.China's annual water resources are averaged at 2,812.4 billion cubic meters, the third in the world and next only to Brazil and the former Soviet Union. But the size of the population has reduced the per capita water resources to merely 2,580 cubic metres, the 84th place in the world. Furthermore, the water resources are unevenly distributed geographically, with 90 percent of the surface water and over 70 percent of the underground water found in southern provinces. This leaves the 17 provinces in the North extremely short of water. With the increasing population, development of production and expansion of cities, the contradiction between demand for and supply of water will become more and more serious.第五篇A Shortcut to Becoming a BeijingerI came to Beijing and found a job as a hired laborer. My workplace is not far from where I stay, but I have to change buses twice to get there. To save the bus fare, I bought an imitation mountain bike and joined Beijing's large contingent of cyclists. But soon trouble found its way to me.Just five days after I bought the bike I left the building of my company after work to get my bike as usual, only to find my bike had disappeared. I walked around the bike parking lot five times but found no trace of it. I concluded it must have been stolen. Hearing my incident, my landlord consoled me, "Take it easy, sonny. You can't be a Beijinger if you haven't lost at least three bikes."As a bike was indispensable to me, I went to the same shop and bought a second bike of the same design. This time I also bought a strong lock for my bike.It so happened that the third day after I bought my second bike was over a weekend. I rode my bike to Tiancheng Supermarket to do shopping. When I came out an hour later carrying big and small bags, I failed to find my bike again. At first I thought perhaps I was dazed by so many bikes there. It dawned on me only after half an hour's careful searching in vain that my new bike was stolen. On my bus ride back I consoled myself, "At this speed I'll out-Beijinger Beijingers in a few days!"第六篇Enhance the Awareness of the EnvironmentEnvironmental protection is a big issue involving many aspects. The United Nations has also met many obstacles in solving problems concerning this issue. For example, the Bush Administration had tried to defeat the Kyoto Protocol not long ago because it might impede the development of the United States. Of course every citizen should be concerned with such issues,but as ordinary citizens we are not in a position to have much say. However, we can start with small matters in our daily life, such as refusing to use disposable chopsticks or paper napkins.My son seems to be more conscious about environmental protection than I am. He thinks it is more important to take into consideration environmental friendliness rather than economic benefit when making any decision. This gratifies me, but I wonder if he would compromise when he has to face life by himself in the future.It is now more appropriate to judge how advanced a society is by examining if environmental protection has found its way deep into the hearts of its people and their daily behavior than by examining its productivity or living standard.第七篇Capital of BeggarsAddis Ababa, capital of Ethiopia, is known as the "capital of beggars". Tens of thousands out of the city's population of three million are beggars. The first impression any foreigner gets when he comes to the city is the unbelievable number of beggars. No matter where you are you will inevitably see them when you look round; and you'll be besieged by a big crowd of beggars dressed in rags as soon as you stop at any intersection.Most of the beggars in Addis Ababa are children. The average life expectancy in Ethiopia is only 49 because of the extreme poverty there. Fifteen million out of Ethiopia's population of 67 million are children under fifteen. Old people are rarely seen in the streets and almost everyone you see is of young age. These children are usually very dirty and are constantly in worries about their next meal. But they are quite optimistic and seem always happy unless extremely hungry. Some children shine shoes for others to earn some bread. They will also readily join the contingent of beggars when they find no business.Another type of beggars are displaced people from the countryside. As Ethiopia was hit by another severe drought last year, there is an obvious increase of beggars in the capital city.第八篇One Plus One Is Less Than TwoNowadays in cities it has become fashionable to remain single, and those who do so seem to be so free and unconstrained. But environmentally this is something undesirable as a recent research report suggests that getting married is an "environment-friendly" action.This sounds somewhat sensational, but it is a simple plain truth: a person living alone consumes much more natural resources than the average a person does when living together with another one. For example, if a person lives by himself in a house which can house two people, the resources used to build the house are partly wasted, and so are water and electricity. So we can see one plus one is less than two. Smaller families mean more families have to be established for the same number of people. As a result, cities get larger and larger, doing serious damage to the surrounding habitats of many species.Sure it is impossible to force single people to get married for the protection of the environment. However, to conserve natural resources, we can at least do our best to choose a way of life that is environment-friendly.第九篇Changing SeatsA woman's seat was next to that of a black man on the plane. She asked a stewardess to change her seat because she "would not sit beside someone whose skin is of an ugly color". Thestewardess replied that all the seats were occupied but she would go and have a look at the first class compartment. The other passengers found the woman's words disgusting but she looked pleased with herself as she wouldn't have to sit beside such a "sickening" person.A few minutes later the stewardess came back and said to the woman, "I'm sorry, but there is a vacant seat in the first class compartment. I've consulted the captain, who has agreed to make some rearrangement about the seat." The woman was very much elated and was ready to leave her seat when the stewardess said to the black man sitting beside the woman, "Would you please follow me to your new seat, sir?" The other passengers were stupefied for a moment but soon gave a round of warm applause to the stewardess.第十篇Harvesting Our Own Sowing?Narrow living spaces and poor hygienic conditions contributed to the wide spread of smallpox in history. Such problems have not been tackled at the root though people's living conditions have been greatly improved. The high population density in central urban districts and the closely built high-risings with narrow space in between are favorable for the spread of viruses. The height inside the rooms is also a problem: It becomes difficult to dispel the polluted air inside the room timely when the height of a room is less than 2.5 meters. But both designers and builders often neglect this in order to save building materials.The greedy demands of human beings have damaged the harmonious natural bio-system. They are paying the price for what they have done. As the resources people rely on are getting exhausted, human beings are exposing themselves to strange viruses and bacteria.。

CATTI三级笔译参考译文

Part 1 English-Chinese TranslationPassage 1如果你从未见过一座发电厂，你可能很难想象发电设备是多么复杂，锅炉能产生多么巨大的热量，而炉子每天又是需要烧多少煤。

举例说，我们的一座发电厂——摩根顿发电厂——的各台锅炉一天中就能把二千四百万加仑的水化为蒸汽。

这座电厂的炉子一天之内就消耗九千九百吨煤。

波多马克电力公司(PEPCO)用煤量如此巨大，以致我们专门购置了两列八十节车皮的火车以加速输送煤的过程。

仅仅一座摩根顿电厂就能每天生产二千五百万千瓦小时的电。

电是靠使大型磁铁在发电机内的线圈里面转动而产生的。

磁铁转速愈高，产生的电压就愈高。

电流从波多马克电力公司的发电机出来时，其电压在13,800伏至24,000伏之间。

下一道程序是使电流通过一个变压器，把电压提升，并使电继续向前进。

一根导线就象一根小口径的水管。

把电压升高就象给水加压一样，这样一来就会使这个系统中能量的运动加快。

Passage 2由于飞机制造工业需要越来越多的铝板，已设计了新的设备把制造铝板的工序自动化。

这套设备包括一个巨型的热处理炉，一架可以起吊热的金属板而不至于损坏它们的吊车和一套能控制整个工艺流程的计算机系统。

五年前，欧洲的飞机制造工业每年只需要8,000吨铝板。

去年这个数字增加到21,800吨。

到2004年它将达到30,000吨。

每架民航飞机就含有180吨铝板。

因此正在对这套设备进行改建，以便提高产品的质量和产量。

铝与其他金属一起被制成合金，铸成锭子，并且把锭子的表面光洁化。

预热之后，锭子在一架可以容纳3.75米宽的平板的轧机中进行轧制。

这套新设备可使这个工序提高效率，并能改进产品的质量。

举例说，铝板加热的温度，铝板通过轧机的速度，以及用水对它进行冷却的速度等等，都由计算机控制。

由于工序全部自动化和使用计算机控制，这套新设备能够处理两倍于被它代替的旧设备的产量。

Part 2 Chinese-English TranslationI address these words in favor of the cultivation of the imagination.In what sense, then, do I use th6 word "imagination"? The meaning of "imagination" is "the power of forming ideal pictures"; "the power of representing absent things to ourselves and to others."That is the sense in which I shall use the word "imagination" in the course of my address.Now follow out this thought and I think I can make my meaning clear. Absent things! Take history. History deals with the things of the past. They are absent in a sense, from your minds -- that is to say you cannot see them; but the study of history qualifies you and strengthens your capacity for understanding things that are not present to you, and thus I wish to recommend history to you as a most desirable course of study.Section 1 英译汉(60分)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。
