CATTI二级笔译实务模拟题

全国翻译专业资格(水平)考试英语二级笔译实务模拟试题Section 1: English-Chinese Translation (英译汉)This section consists of two parts, Part A - "Compulsory Translation" and Part B - "Choice of Two Translations" consisting of two sections "Topic 1" and "Topic 2". For the passage in Part A and your choice of passages in Part B, translate the underlined portions, including titles, into Chinese. Above your translation of Part A, write "Compulsory Translation" and above your translation from Part B, write "Topic 1" or "Topic 2" and write your translations on the ANSWER SHEET (60 points, 100 minutes).Part A Compulsory Translation (必译题)(30 points)The Dreadlock DeadlockIn the fall of 1993 Christopher Polk transferred from FedEx's hub in Indianapolis to take over a delivery route in Flatbush District, Brooklyn, N.Y. But moving to the country's largest community of Caribbean and African immigrants only precipitated a far more profound journey. "I was becoming culturally aware of the history of the black people," says Polk, now 31, "and that gave me these spiritual questions." His answer came providentially, by way of a music video featuring Lord Jamal, who raps about the Rastafarian belief in the sanctity of dreadlocks - the cords of permanently interlocked strands first worn by African chiefs perhaps 6,000 years ago.Now a practicing Rastafarian, Polk sports thick garlands that gently cascade onto his shoulders. "Your hair is your covenant," he says. "Once you grow your locks, it puts you on a path."Unfortunately, that path was a collision course with Federal Express's grooming policy, which requires men to confine their dos to "a reasonable style." After years of deliberation, Polk's bosses gave him a choice: shear his locks or be transferred to a lower-paid job with no customer contact. He refused both options and was terminated in June 2000.His tale is not unique. Although Rastafarians number about 5,000 nationally, today dreadlocks, twists or braids are at the height of fashion, nearly as common as Afros were 30 years ago. If Afros symbolized militancy, dreads signal a more spiritual self-declaration, a figurative locking with African ancestors. As Stanford professor Kennell Jackson, who teaches a course called "African Coiffures and Their New World Legacies," puts it, "There's a divinity to these locks."Divine or not, some employers consider them unacceptably outré. Six other New York-area FedEx employees have lost their jobs because of dreadlocks. They have sued, alleging religious discrimination; the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and New York's attorney general have also charged FedEx with violating religious protections in the Civil Rights Act.The dreadlock deadlock may be easing. FedEx altered its policy slightly a few weeks ago: in the future, observant employees who seek a waiver may wear their locks tucked under uniform hats, says a company spokeswoman. The concession isn't enough to settle the lawsuits yet. The EEOC also wantsreinstatement for the fired drivers, says trial attorney Michael Ranis. He's optimistic. Some new styles, he knows, grow more appealing over time.Part B Choice of Two Translations (二选一题)(30 points)Topic 1 (选题一)Eurasians: The New Face of AsiaFusion is in, not only as an abstract fashion concept, but in that most grounded of realities: mixed-blood people who walk, talk, and produce even more multiracial progeny. Most strange of all, these hybrids are finding themselves hailed as role models for vast masses in Asia with no mixed blood at all. "When I think of Asia, I don't necessarily think of people who look like me," says Declan Wong, a Chinese-Dutch-American actor and producer, "But somehow we've become the face that sells the new Asia."So maybe Asia's Eurasian craze is driven by the theories of that whitest of white men, economist Adam Smith. As the world gets smaller, we look for a global marketing mien, a one-size-fits-all face that helps us sell Nokia cell phones and Palmolive shampoo across the world."For any business, you can't think locally anymore," says Paul Lau, general manager at Elite Model Management in Hong Kong, who has built up a stable of Eurasians for his internationally minded clients. "At the very least, you need to think regionally. Ideally, you should think globally." A global image helps sell products, even if no one but Filipinos would ever want to buy duck-fetus eggs or Thais the most pungent variety of shrimp paste. Yanto Zainal, president of Macs909, a boutique ad agency in Jakarta, used all indos for a campaign for the local Matahari department store chain. "The store wanted to promote a more cosmopolitan image," he says. "Indos have an international look but can still be accepted as Indonesian."Channel V, the Asia-wide music television channel, was one of the first to broadcast the message of homogenized hybridism. "We needed a messenger that would fit in from Tokyo to the Middle East." Says Jonnifer Seeto, regional sales marketing manager for the channel, which began beaming its border-busting images in 1994. Star Veejay Asha Gill personifies the global look. When asked what her ethnic heritage is, Gill, a Malaysian citizen, simply shrugs. "Oh, who knows," she says. "I'm half Punjabi, mixed with some English, a little French and dribs and drabs of God knows what else." The 29-year-old speaks crisp British English, fluent Malay, and a smidgen of Punjabi. She grew up in a Kuala Lumpur neighborhood that was mostly Chinese, attended an English-speaking school and was pals with Malay and Indian kids. Gill's Channel V show, broadcast in English, has a strong following in Malaysia, Japan and the United Arab Emirates. "I'm Hitler's worst nightmare," she says. "My ethnicity and profession make me a global person who can't be defined in just one category."Topic 2 (选题二)MatterLook at all the things around us: chairs, desks, cupboards, papers and pensin our classroom; motor cars, bicycles and buses in the streets; trees, plants and animals in the countryside; birds, aeroplanes and clouds in the sky; f ishes, seaweeds and corals in the sea; stars, the moon and the sun in outer space. These and all other things including the human body, are examples of matter. Matter is anything that takes up space and has weight.What is Matter Made of?Since ancient times, learned men or philosophers have thought about matter and what it is made up of. One group of philosophers thought that matter was made up of a substance called "hyle" (实质). Another group of philosophers said that matter was made up of four substances, namely earth, water, air and fire. A third group believed that matter was made up of very tiny particles which were too small to be seen. These particles were so small that they could never be further divided into smaller particles. They gave the particles the name atoms which means "those which cannot be divided." The difference between the various kinds of atoms and the ways in which they were joined were supposed to result in the different kinds of matter.All these ideas arose purely from the mind and were not based on investigation. For many years, people believed in the second idea. But actually it is the third idea that is nearer to our present concept of matter.Dalton's Atomic TheoryIn the early nineteenth century, Dalton, an English school teacher, stated in this atomic theory that matter was made up of tiny, indivis ible particles, which he also called atoms. His laboratory work showed him that atoms could neither be divided into smaller parts nor could they be destroyed. He pictured matter as being made up of tiny solid spherical atoms. Today the idea of the atoms has been accepted. But further work has shown that contrary to Dalton's findings, atoms are made up of even smaller particles.Section 2: Chinese-English Translation (汉译英)This section consists of two parts, Part A —— "Compulsory Translation" and Part B - "Choice of Two Translations" consisting of two sections "Topic 1" and "Topic 2". For the passage in Part A and your choice of passages in Part B, translate the underlined portions, including titles, into English. Above your translation of Part A, write "Compulsory Translation" and above your translation from Part B, write "Topic 1" or "Topic 2" and write your translations on the ANSWER SHEET (40 points, 80 minutes).Part A Compulsory Translation (必译题)(20 points)中国政府高度重视人口与发展问题,将人口与发展问题作为国民经济和社会发展总体规划的重要组成部分列入议事日程,始终强调人口增长与经济社会发展相适应,与资源利用和环境保护相协调。

catti实务模拟题附答案

catti实务模拟题附答案

第1题:填空题:The importance of agriculture cannot be overstated. More than 50 percent of the world''s labor force is employed in agriculture. The distribution in the early 1980s ranged from 67 percent of those employed in Africa to less than 5 percent in North America. In Western Europe, the figure was about 16 percent; in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union, about 32 percent; and in Asia, about 68 percent.Farm size varies widely from region to region. Recently the average for Canadian farms was about 186 ha (about 460 acres) per farm, and for U.S. farms, about 175 ha (about 432 acres). The average size of a single landholding in the Philippines, however, may be somewhat less than 3.6 ha (less than 9 acres), and in Indonesia, a little less than 1.2 ha (less than 3 acres).Size also depends on the purpose of the farm. Commercial farming, or production for cash, is usually done on large holdings. The plantations of Latin America are large, privately owned estates worked by tenant labor. Single-crop plantations produce tea, rubber, cocoa. Wheat farms are most efficient when they comprise some thousands of hectares and can be worked by teams of people and machines. Australian sheep stations and other livestock farms must be large to provide grazing for thousands of animals.Individual subsistence farms or small-family mixed-farm operations are decreasing in number in developed countries but are still numerous in the developing countries of Africa and Asia. A "back-to-the-land" movement in the U.S. reversed the decline of small farms in New England and Alaska in the decade from 1970 to 1980.The conditions that determine what will be raised in an area include climate, water supply, and terrain.Over the 10,000 years since agriculture began to be developed, peoples everywhere have discovered the food value of wild plants and animals and domesticated and bred them. The most important are cereals such as wheat, rice, barley, corn and rye.Agricultural income is also derived from non-food crops such as rubber, fiber plants, tobacco, and oilseeds used in synthetic chemical compounds. Money is also derived from raising animals for pelt.Much of the foreign exchange earned by a country may be derived from a single commodity; for example, Sri Lanka depends on tea, Denmark specializes in dairy products, Australia in wool, and New Zealand and Argentina in meat products. In the U.S., wheat has become a major foreign exchange commodity in recent years.The importance of an individual country as an exporter of agricultural products depends on many variables. Among them is the possibility that the country is too little developed industrially to produce manufactured goods in sufficient quantity or technical sophistication. Such agricultural exporters include Ghana with cocoa, and Myanmar with rice. On the other hand, an exceptionally well-developed country mayproduce surpluses not needed by its own population; this has been true of the U.S., Canada, and some of the West European countries.第2题:填空题:论想象力的培养我的讲话是主张培养想象力。

Elsewhere, I saw yet another women's group slowly expanding their local agricultural production, with UN help. Soon they will replace World Food Program rice with their own home-grown produce, sufficient to cover the needs of their school feeding program.
Imagine the situation of those living on less than $1 a day—the "bottom billion," the poorest of the world's poor. Most live in Africa, and many might typically spend two-thirds of their income on food.
Still, if you start off by liking Rembrandt, as I do, there is much to discover. For instance, when in Amsterdam I always make a point of paying homage to the Rembrandt masterpieces in the Rijksmuseum, yet until now I had never bothered to visit Rembrandt House, where the painter lived from 1639 until driven out by bankruptcy in 1658. In brief, had never much connected his art to his person.

二级笔译考试模拟题及答案

二级笔译考试模拟题及答案【试题一】The first outline of The Ascent of Man was written in July1969and the last foot of film was shot in December 1972. An undertaking aslarge as this, though wonderfully exhilarating, is not entered lightly. It demands an unflagging intellectual and physical vigour, a total immersion, which I had to be sure that I could sustain with pleasure;for instance, Ihad to put off researches that I had already begun; and I ought to explai-n what moved me to do so.There has been a deep change in the temper of science in thelast20 years: the focus of attention has shifted from the physical tothe life sciences. As a result, science is drawn more and more to the study of in-dividuality. But the interested spectator is hardly awareyet how far-reaching the effect is in changing the image of man that science moulds. Asa mathematician trained in physics, I too would have been unaware, had not a series of lucky chances taken me into the life sciences in middle age. I owe a debt for the good fortune that carried me into two seminal fields of science in one lifetime; and though I do not know to whom the debt is due, I conceived The Ascent of Man in gratitude to repay it.The invitation to me from the British Broadcasting Corporation was to present the development of science in a series of television programmes to match those of Lord Clark on Civilisation. Television isan admirable medium- for exposition in several ways: powerful and immediate to the eye, able to take the spectator bodily into the places and processes that are described, and conversational enough to make him conscious that what he witnesses are not events but the actions of people. The last of these merits is to my mind the most cogent, and it weighed most with me in agreeing to cast a personal biography of ideasin the form of television essays. The point is that knowledge in general and science in particular does not consist of abstract but of man-made ideas, all the way from its beginnings to its modern and idiosyncratic models. Therefore the underlying concepts that unlock nature must be shown to arise early and in the simplest cultures of man from his basic and specific faculties. And the development of science which joins them in more and more complex conjunctions must be seen to be equally human: discoveries are made by men, not merely by minds, so that they are aliveand charged with individuality. If television is not used to make these thoughts concrete, it is wasted.参考答案:不是因为我们害怕看到他会因失误而给他辉煌的生涯画上遗憾的一笔。

英语翻译二级口译实务模拟试题及答案解析(3)(1/2)Part ⅠInterpret the following passages from English into Chinese. You will hear this signal to tell you when you start interpreting. Now let's begin.第1题Steven Spielberg´s first films were made at a time when directors were the most important people in Hollywood, and his more recent ones at a time when marketing controls the industry. He has remained the most powerful filmmaker in the world during both periods, which says something for his talent and his flexibility.Spielberg´s most important contribution to modem movies is his acute insight to find and attract a large audience. He ingeniously revised old-style B-movie stories with A-level craftsmanship and enhanced them with the latest developments in special effects.Considering such movies as the "Indiana Jones" series and "Jurassic Park". The story lines were the mediocre stuff, but the filmmaking was cutting edge and delivered what films have always desired: they showed us something amazing that we hadn´t seen before.The master image created in movies expresses something fundamental about the way the filmmakers see things. Spielberg once said that his master image was a simultaneous combination of brightness and mystery. This appears in many of his films.In Spielberg, the light source conceals mystery, whereas for many other directors it is darkness that conceals mystery. The difference is that for Spielberg, mystery offers promise instead of threat. One day he talked about a previous experience."My dad took me out to see a meteor shower when I was a little kid," he said, "and it was scary for me because he woke me up in the middle of the night. My heart was beating; I didn´t know what he wanted to do. He wouldn´t tell me, and he put me in the car and we went off, and I saw ail these people lying on blankets, looking up at the sky. And my dad spread out a blanket. We lay down and looked at the sky, and I saw for the first time all these meteors.""What scared me was being awakened in the middle of the night and taken somewhere without being told where. But what didn´t scare me, but was very soothing, was watching this meteor shower. And I think from that moment on, I never looked at the sky and thought it was a bad place."Spielberg has always maintained superb quality control and when his films work, they work on every level that a film can roach. When his films are shown, they will conquer the most sophisticated filmgoers in the world and invite them to tears and cheers.下一题(2/2)Part ⅠInterpret the following passages from English into Chinese.

Translate the following passage (s ) into Chinese )第1题【正确答案】:当前经济全球化不断发展,科学技术突飞猛进,为新世纪全球经济和社会发展提供了前所未有的技术条件。

尤其是信息通信技术的发展,深刻地改变着人们的经济社会和文化生活方式。

一方面,信息化为经济发展和社会进步提供了难得的数字机遇,而另一方面它也给我们带来了各种挑战。

世界各国都在积极采取措施,大力发展信息通信技术和信息产业,努力推进国家信息化进程。

然而,世界范围内信息工业发展极不平衡,贫富国家享有和利用信息资源和技术的差距不是在缩小,而是在扩大,广大发展中国家处于更加不利的地位,这必然导致南北贫富差距进一步拉大。

如何缩小直至消除数字鸿沟,是建设信息社会过程中亟需解决的重大问题。

否则,我们就无法在全球范围内实现信息社会持续、健康和协调发展的目标。

信息基础设施薄弱已成为广大发展中网家落后于发达国家的一个重要因素,严重影响了这些国家建设信息社会的能力。

因此,我们应高度重视研究发展中国家加快信息基础设施建设的战略目标。

这些战略目标包括:制订政府宏观调控与市场管制政策,建立符合本国国情的信息管制体系,处理好技术与市场的关系,规避市场风险,建立创新的融资机制,实现资金的多元投入等。

在未来信息社会中,知识和技能是促进经济发展的主要驱动力,是信息产业实现可持续发展的重要因素之一。

发展中国家在信息技术方面落后于发达国家的主要原因之一是其知识和人才的短缺,也是解决数字鸿沟应考虑的一个重点环节。

因此我们应考虑建立人力资源开发创新机制,探讨如何通过现有的培训基地和培训资源以及互联网,改善人力资源开发工作,提高人们对信息通信技术的认识。

CATTI 二级笔译实务全真模拟题(三)(附参考译文)Section 1: English-Chinese Translation (50 points) Translate the following two passages into Chinese.Passage 1The development of the modern presidency in the United States began with Andrew Jackson who swept to power in 1829 at the head of the Democratic Party and served until 1837. During his administration, he immeasurably enlarged the power of the presidency. “The President is the direct representative of the American people," he lectured the Senate when it opposed him. “He was elected by the people, and is responsible to them." With this declaration, Jackson redefined the character of the presidential office and its relationship to the people.During Jackson's second term, his opponents had gradually come together to form the Whig party. Whigs and Democrats held different attitudes toward the changes brought about by the market, banks, and commerce. The Democrats tended to view society as a continuing conflict between “the people” -farmers, planters, and workers and a set of greedy aristocrats. This “paper money aristocracy" of bankers and investors manipulated the banking system for their own profit, Democrats claimed, and sapped the nation's virtue by encouraging speculation and the desire for sudden, unearned wealth. The Democrats wanted the rewards of the market without sacrificing the features of a simple agrarian republic. They wanted the wealth that the market offered without the competitive, changing society; the complex dealing; the dominance of urban centers, and the loss of independence that came with it.Whigs, on the other hand, were more comfortable with the market. For them, commerce and economic development were agents of civilization, Nor did the Whigs envision any conflict in society between farmers and workers on the one hand and businessperson and bankers on the other. Economic growth would benefit everyone by raising national income and expanding opportunity. The government's responsibility was to provide a well-regulated economy that guaranteed opportunityfor citizens of ability.Whigs and Democrats differed not only in their attitudes toward the market but also about how active the central government should be in people's lives. Despite Andrew jackson's inclination to be a strong President, Democrats as a rule believed in limited government. Government's role in the economy was to promote competition by destroying monopolies’ and special privileges. In keeping with this philosophy of limited government, Democrats also rejected the idea that moral beliefs were the proper sphere of government action. Religion and politics, they believed, should be kept clearly separate, and they generally opposed humanitarian legislation.The Whigs, in contrast, viewed government power positively. They believed that it should be used to protect individual rights and public liberty, and that it had a special role where individual effort was ineffective. By regulating the economy and competition, the government could ensure equal opportunity. Indeed, for Whigs the concept of government promoting the general welfare went beyond the economy. In particular, Whigs in the northern sections of the United States also believed that government power should be used to foster the moral welfare of the country. They were much more likely to favor social-reform legislation and aid to education.【参考译文】英译汉: 第一篇美国现代总统制度的发展是从安德鲁·杰克逊开始的。

例如:At the door to the restaurant, a stunning, porcelain-faced woman intraditional costume asked me to remove my shoes.如果把 a stunning,porcelain-faced woman译作“一位迷人陶瓷般脸蛋妇女”就显得粗俗滑稽,但是不是作者本意。

这时意译就比较好。

“在通往餐厅门口有一位妇女,涂脂抹粉、细皮嫩肉、身着和服、十分迷人,她叫我脱下鞋子。

”The girl is a dead shot.这位姑娘是神枪手。

(不能译作“死射手”)After the failure of his last novel, his reputation stands on slipperygrounds.他上部小说失败之后,声誉一落千丈。

(不能译为“站在滑动场地上了。

”)2.有些借喻不能直译He went west by stage coach and succumbed to the epidemic of gold and silverfever in Nevada''s Washoe Region.误:他乘公共马车到了西部,患了瓦肖地区金银发烧流行病。

正:他乘公共马车到了西部,卷入了淘金热和淘银热。

一、English-Chinese Translation (本大题3小题.每题30.0分,共90.0分。

Translate the following passage (s ) into Chinese )
第1题
A few months back, Desalegn Godebo's wife descended into a feverish delirium. "It was as if she were mad, “he said, shuddering at the memory.” she was scratching me like a crazy woman."
Before a new road was built through this village, Godebo would have loaded his wife onto his back and hiked six hours along narrow dirt paths to the small city of Awasa. Instead, he lifted her into a truck for the one-hour ride to town. Her condition was diagnosed as malaria and typhoid. She is well now and back home caring for their baby.
The dirt-and-gravel road may look like a timeless feature of the Great Rift Valley (东非大裂谷). But it is part of a huge public road-building project that is slowly hauling one of the poorest, hungriest nations on earth into modernity.
The people who live along it divide time into two eras: Before the Road and After the Road. Because of the road, people can take their sick to the hospital and their children to distant schools. Farmers like Godebo who had only their own feet or a donkey's back for transport can now transport their crops to market.
Ethiopia, an agricultural society where most farmers still live more than a half-day's walk from roads, has been especially hobbled by their absence.
Support for roads in Africa, particularly from the World Bank, is growing again after a decade of decline in the 1990s. Then the bank reduced lending for roads.
Road-building is coming back in style as a way to combat rural poverty in Africa.
While no one expects roads alone to end the chronic hunger faced by millions of Ethiopians or the famines that loom periodically, most development experts agree that they are a precondition for progress and are essential to the success of the Green Revolution, which produces abundance in much of Asia but bypasses Africa.
【正确答案】:
几个月以前,德撒林·高德宝的妻子因发烧而精神错乱。

高德宝想起当时的情景就不寒而栗。

他说:“她当时就像疯子一样。

她用指甲抓我,简直是个疯子。


模考吧网提供最优质的模拟试题,最全的历年真题,最精准的预测押题!
过去这个村子不通公路,高德宝就得背上妻子顺着狭窄的土路走上六个钟头,上小城阿瓦萨去看病。

这一次就不用了,他把妻子扶上一辆卡车,一个小时就进了小城。

经诊断,她得了疟疾和伤寒。

现在她已经好了,又回到家里照顾孩子了。

这条石子路可能看上去很像东非大裂谷的一个永恒的标志;其实不然,它是一项宏伟的筑路工程的一部分,这项公共工程正逐渐推动世界上贫穷、饥饿最为严重的国家之一走向现代化。

沿路的百姓把时间分为两个时代:“修路前”和“修路后”。

因为修了这条路,大家就能把病人送到医院去看病,把孩子送到远处去上学。

像高德宝这样的农民,过去全靠自己的双脚,或用驴子来驮东西,现在也能把自己种的东西运到市场上去卖了。

埃塞俄比亚是一个农业国,至今大部分农民要走半天的时间才能走上公路,因此,没有公路一直对埃塞俄比亚的发展影响很大。

非洲筑路得到的援助,尤其是世界银行的援助,20世纪90年代逐渐减少,现在又逐渐增加了。

当时世界银行削减了筑路的贷款。

筑路工程现在又轰轰烈烈地恢复起来,这是非洲农村战胜贫困的一条出路。

虽然谁也不指望只靠修路就能解除千百万埃塞俄比亚人长期忍受的饥饿之苦,就能消除不时出现的饥荒之灾,然而致力于发展的专家们一致认为,修路是取得进步的先决条件,也是绿色革命成功的基础。

当年绿色革命在亚洲广大地区取得了丰硕的成果,却与非洲失之交臂。

[采分点解析]
1.A few months back, Desalegn Godebo's wife descended into a feverish delirium. 几个月以前,德撒林·高德宝的妻子因发烧而精神错乱。

[分析] 理解表达采分点。

back 可指“(时间)以前”,如:That was a few years back. 那是几年以前的事。

所以,原文中的状语a few months back 译成“几个月前”。

descend 指“下降”,在这里应该是选用“陷入”的含义,因后面跟的delirium 指一种病态,所以该词可以省译。

形容词feverish 在这里直接作定语,修饰delirium(精神错乱),所以翻译成“由于发烧而精神错乱”。

2.shuddering at the memory 想起当时的情景就不寒而栗
[分析] 理解表达采分点。

介词短语at the memory 译成“一想起/想起当时的情景”。

3.Before a new road was built through this village, Godebo would have loaded his wife onto his back and hiked six hours along narrow dirt paths to the small city of Awasa. 过去这个村子不通公路,高德宝就得背上妻子顺着狭窄的土路走上六个钟头,上小城阿瓦萨去看病。

[分析] 理解表达采分点。

如果状语从句Before a new road was built through this village 译成“在这个村子通公路之前”的话,所表达的意思没有错误,但不符合汉语习惯,所以译成“过去这个村子不通公路”。

另外,采用增词的方法翻译to the small city of Awasa, 增加“看病”两个字,即“上小城阿瓦萨去看病”。

4.Instead, he lifted her into a truck for the one-hour ride to town. 这一次就不用了,他把妻子扶上一辆卡车,一个小时就进了小城。

[分析] 理解表达采分点。
