第二部分练习篇Exercise OneListen to the following texts and then reproduce in the same language at the end of each segment:Text 1.1Mr Governor, Ladies and Gentlemen, It is my great pleasure to be invited to attend the Guangdong Governor’s International A dvisory Council Meeting.//I would like to take this opportunity to highlight our report to the Governor and share with you our view on the role of telecommunications and information infrastructure (ICT) in the economic development.//International experience suggests that Information and communication technology (ICT) infrastructure and services can have a substantial impact on the competitiveness of firms, nations, and regions. The most important impact of ICT does not come from manufacturing ICT goods, but from investing in and using ICT infrastructure and services.//According to the ITU, global telecommunications services sales reached US$ 1.1 trillion in 2002, more than three times the value of telecommunications equipment sales of US$335 billion.The value created by use of telecommunications services is estimated to be far higher than the total services revenue. Thus investment in ICT infrastructure creates value many times that of the investment itself. //Firm level studies show that ICT investments help firms gain competitiveness through improved efficiency, reduced inventories, better designs, and faster rates of innovation. ICT allows firms to increase the efficiency of their business processes by decreasing procurement and transaction costs, improving accounting and control, enhancing management systems, and streamlining their supply chains.//Several studies also indicate that ICT is a key driver of productivity and growth. There are several distinctive features of ICT that make them particularly important to national and regional economies, which include the pervasive and cross-cutting nature of ICT, the low or declining marginal costs of using the technologies, the ability to foster efficiency gains through streamlining supply chains, the facilitation of the creation of entirely new business models and industries, and the global nature of ICT.//All of these characteristics imply that ICT can have an important impact on competitiveness and economic development.//Text 1.2主席先生：我很高兴参加2001’国际投资论坛。

They should also prepare their interpreting equipment, such as headsets, microphones, and notepads. Additionally, interpreters may needto review and practice specialized terminology related to the event.Unit 5: The Interpreting StageDuring the interpreting stage, interpreters listen to the speaker and simultaneously translate their words into the target language. They must stay focused and concentrate on thespeaker's message to accurately convey the meaning. Interpreters should also pay attention to the speaker's tone, emotion, and non-verbal cues, as these elements can affect the interpretation.Unit 6: Note-taking TechniquesNote-taking is an essential skill for interpreters.Effective note-taking allows interpreters to retain important information and assist with memory recall during interpretation. Interpreters should develop their own note-taking system and use abbreviations and symbols to jot down key points quickly. However, note-taking should not interfere with active listening and immediate interpretation.Chapter 3: Consecutive InterpretationUnit 7: Introduction to Consecutive InterpretationConsecutive interpretation involves listening to one or several sentences in the source language and then reproducing them in the target language. It requires good memory retention and the ability to accurately convey the meaning. Interpreters should take notes and use their notes as a reference during the interpretation.Unit 8: The Techniques of Consecutive InterpretationInterpreters use several techniques during consecutive interpretation to ensure accurate and fluent delivery. These techniques include paraphrasing, summarizing, clarifying ambiguous statements, and maintaining natural rhythm and pacing. Interpreters should also adapt their interpretation style to match the speaker's tone and style.Unit 9: Consecutive Interpretation PracticeInterpreters can practice consecutive interpretation by engaging in role plays or shadowing experienced interpreters. They can also utilize practice materials, such as speeches, interviews, or articles, to improve their interpretation skills. Regular practice is essential for enhancing memory retention, improving fluency, and perfecting delivery.。

口译教程文本1
口译教程文本1口译文本（一）2.3 Yo-Yo MaToday we’ll meet one of the greatest cellists of our times, Yo-Yo Ma. His career as a professional cellist spans more than 20 years and over 50 albums. He has been honored for his music with many awards including an amazing 14 Grammy. He has played on many important occasions including the Grammy and the Olympics.Yo-Yo Ma was born in France to Chinese parents who were both musicians. His mother was a singer, his father, a composer. Yo-Yo Ma gave his first public performance when he was only 5. Four years later, at the tender age of 9, he was playing at the prestigious Carnegie Hall in New York, by which time the family had moved to the US. Yo-Yo Ma pursued his cello studies at the Julliard School of Music. From there he opted to attend Harvard and got a degree in anthropology. His experiences at Harvard as well as his multi-cultural background have helped to shape who he is today.Today Yo-Yo Ma continues his musical journey, never hesitating to collaborate with musicians of all genres and from around the world. He is inspired by people and nature. To him, the cello is an extension of his vocal cords. The most important thing when he plays is to give all of himself all of the time in a performance, to try to transmit the contents of the music to the audience he is playing for.7.2 Prepare for the worstWhen nations are faced with great catastrophes, it is common for the accusations to start flying before the dust settlesor any debris has even been cleared.Commentators are quick to raise a cry over government action or lack thereof, or whether the disaster could have been averted or its deadly consequences mitigated. This is especially true when many lives are lost and many more are at stake, and society is forced to cope with something terrible for the first time.There is always a steep learning curve when it comes to responding to calamities of this kind, and Mother Nature does an expert job of keeping us on our toes. The ability to expect the unexpected should perhaps be considered a necessary virtue for public officials.The Indian Ocean tsunami that wreaked havoc in southern Thailand and other neighboring countries is a perfect example of why that is so.New policies, organizations and procedures will spring up amid the devastation. Expensive new technologies will be deployed and bureaucrats shuffled around. The world of officialdom will appear to be in control, actively responding to needs and crises as they arise.As a society, the people of Thailand have demonstrated that they can come together and help one another in times of crisis. But we must now work much more resolutely to prepare for possible disasters, no matter how high or low their probability. We cannot just focus on the next tsunami because the next big catastrophe could equally well be something totally different and unexpected. We must prepare for the worst, no matter what form it may take.7.3 Extreme SportsIn the past, young sportspeople would play hockey or baseball. Today, they want risk and excitement --- the closer tothe edge the better. They snowboard over cliffs and mountain-bike down steep mountains. They wind-surf near hurricanes, go white-water rafting through rapids, and bungee-jump from towers. //Extreme sports started as an alternative to more expensive sports. A city kid who didn’t have the money to buy expensive sports equipment could get a skateboard and have fun. But now it has become a whole new area of sport, requiring specialized equipment and high levels of skill. There’s even a special Olympics for extreme sports, called the Winter X-Games, which include snow mountain-biking and ice-climbing. An Extreme Games competition is held each summer in Rhode Island. It features sports such as sky-surfing, where people jump from airplanes with surfboards attached to their feet. //What makes extreme sports so popular? I think the main reason is that people love the thrill. City people in particular want to be outdoors on weekends and do something challenging. With the new equipment available today people can take greater risks without getting hurt. And the risk itself is part of the appeal. Once you have been mountain biking or snow-boarding, it’s impossible to go b ack to cycling or skiing. They are just too boring. //Extreme sports are certainly not for everyone. Most people still prefer to play baseball or basketball or watch sports on TV. But extreme sports are definitely gaining in popularity. These fresh and exciting sports could well be the wave of the future.17.1 The new generation of China specialistsHaving walked through China’s hutong and rice paddies, lived on mantou and doufu, interviewed ganbu and accesseddang’an, experienced the daily life in danwei, ridden the ra ils hard seat across China, and possessing reasonable fluency in putonghua, the new generation of China specialists brings a “feel” and authenticity to their writing often absent in previous generation.

Module 1 Getting the message through listeningI Theory and skills成功的口译首先取决于能否快速准确地获取原语讲话的信息。
口译中获取信息的主要渠道是“听”，尽管译员也可能从其他渠道获得额外的辅助信息。
学习外语的人一直都重视听力训练，但在外语听力练习中我们一般较多地注意语言层面的东西，对信息的印象也相对零散，一般只要求听懂了并能做选择题或回答问题就够了。
口译任务对听力的要求则不同，译员需要在听懂的基础上对信息的整体和细节有全面的把握，以便于能够迅速地用目的语流利、完整地表达出来。
能够听懂和能够表达是两种不同程度的要求，后者要求更高，难度也更大。
口译理解实际上是一个包含听取信息、理解会意和逻辑分析的快速而复杂的过程。
这一过程中，译员不仅要听懂原语所承载的信息，还要对信息进行分析，找出信息的逻辑层次和关系，将信息的全貌和细节有机地梳理整合起来。
在表达的过程中，没有外语听力训练中常见的问答题或选择题来提示原语的内容，因此译员脑中对信息要有清晰的思路，这样才能将信息一气呵成，而不会丢三落四，或者说到一半卡壳。
另外，在这一过程中，口译员所承受的心理压力非常大，很容易造成注意力分配不均，有时会出现本来可以听懂的内容口译时反而听不懂的现象。
要提高迅速准确获取信息的能力，除了要在课内课外加大听力练习的训练量外，还需要采用正确的练习方法。
在口译中仅仅听懂了原语讲话还远远不够，听完语音材料后，应该能够不经过准备，立即进行口头大意概述。
概述时使用原语，即听到中文讲话用中文概述讲话的主要内容，听英文讲话则用英文概述。
听中文讲话用中文概述的目的是让大家在没有听力压力的情况下，锻炼迅速组织材料并进行口语表达的能力。
听英文进行概述的目的在于提高听力和外语概述能力。
有的同学可能会认为这种练习很简单，其实做起来并没有想象得那么容易，在整理信息和组织语言的过程中有时会遇到意想不到的困难，如信息组织凌乱，语言表达不连贯，有的内容一时想不起来等。
概述练习时尽量不要拘泥于原语的遣辞造句，而应该关注整段话的逻辑关系，抓住主干信息。
II Skills practiceTeaching suggestions: Remind students how to get the message through listening. You may ask one or two questions to alert students to focus their attention on the main ideas, for instance: What are the three bad after-meal habits? Why? (For 1.1) What are the reasons we have eyebrows? (For 1.2)Instruction: Listen for he main idea of each passage.1.1 三种错误的饭后习惯医生提醒人们，随着人们生活水平的逐渐提高，人们的保健意识也随之增强了，许多人认为饭后吃点水果是现代生活的最佳搭配。
无论是在餐厅、饭店，还是在家里就餐，许多人都喜欢饭后吃点水果爽口，其实这是一种错误的生活习惯，因为饭后马上吃水果会影响消化功能。
医生解释说，由于食物进入胃以后，必须经过一到两个小时的消化过程，才能缓慢排出。
如果人们在饭后立即吃进水果，就会被先期到达的食物阻滞在胃内，致使水果不能正常地在胃内消化，在胃内时间过长，从而引起腹胀、腹泻或便秘等症状。
如果人们长期坚持这种生活习惯，将会导致消化功能紊乱，因此，人们最好在饭后一到两个小时再吃水果。
医生还提醒说，人们还要注意改正饭后饮茶和饭后散步的错误习惯。
饭后立即饮茶，茶水会冲淡胃液，影响胃内食物的正常消化。
茶水中含有的单宁酸还会促使胃内的物质凝固，影响蛋白质的吸收，从而增加了胃的负担。
对此，医生建议人们，在饭后一小时内最好不要饮茶，应待饭后一小时胃内食物消化得差不多时再饮用茶水，这样对消化功能和物质凝固也不会产生太大的影响。
“饭后百步走，活到九十九”，这种说法也是不科学的。
人的胃在饭后是处于充盈状态的，即使是非常轻微的运动也会使胃受到震动，从而增加胃肠负担，影响消化功能。
对此，医生建议，饭后适当休息三十分钟，待胃内的食物适当消化后，再活动较为适宜，这样也不会对消化系统产生太大的影响。
Why do we have eyebrows?Those tiny little hairs above our eyes that many women pluck or paint play a very important role in keeping moisture out of our eyes.Just like an umbrella keeps our bodies dry from rain, our hairy eyebrows keep our eyes dry from rain or sweat. When it's pouring with rain outside or when sweat runs down our foreheads, our eyebrows divert the flow of water or sweat away from our eyes. Our arch-shaped eyebrows angle the rain or sweat around to the sides of our faces, leaving our eyes fairly dry. By catching the water or sweat, our eyebrows not only allow us to see more clearly but also keep the salt in the sweat from burning or irritating our eyes.Eyebrows have other roles also. As one of our most expressive facial features, eyebrows help us determine how people are feeling without having to ask them. If a person's eyebrows are drawn in a frown, the chances are that they are angry or upset.What is more, over the years, eyebrows have been having an increasing impact on our concepts of beauty or fashion. Big, thick and hairy eyebrows tend to be considered unattractive, while thin, plucked eyebrows are said to be more attractive.III.
