英语翻译中级口译第二部分口试强化练习(一)

一、Interpret（本大题2小题．每题25.0分，共50.0分。 Interpret the following passage from English to Chinese. You will hear this signal to tell you when you start interpreting）

第1题

【正确答案】：

英国大学可大致分为三组。牛津和剑桥是古老的大学。13世纪初期就有学者在那里做研究。

第二组是红砖大学。红砖这一词现在已不常用了，但用它来表示这一组大学很合适，因为这些大学多数是由当时最流行的建筑材料——红砖建成的。

新大学是第二次世界大战后成立的大学。由于大学课程设置更现代化，一些学生宁愿选择新大学，而不选古老的大学。

现在说开放大学(广播电视大学)多么成功还为时过早。对此持批评态度的人抱怨成本太高，但这所新型大学也许是迄今所发现的最经济、影响最广泛的传播教育的方式。

【答案解析】

[听力原文]

British universities can be divided roughly into three main groups. The old universities are Oxford and Cambridge. Scholars are studying there in the early thirteenth century.

The second group is the redbrick universities. The term "redbrick" is not used much today, but it is a useful way of describing this group of universities, many of which were built in the favorite building material of the time — red brick.

The new universities are founded since the Second World War. Because of their more modern approach to university courses, some students choose the new universities in preference to the old universities.

It is too early yet to say how successful the Open University will be. Its critics complain of the cost, but this new university is probably the cheapest and most far-reaching method yet found of spreading further education.
