OneBirds are famous for carrying things around.Some, like homing pigeons, can be trained to deliver messages and packages.Other birds unknowingly carry seeds that cling to them for the ride.Canadian scientists have found a worrisome, new example of the power that birds have to spread stuff around.Way up north in the Canadian Arctic, seabirds are picking up dangerous chemicals in the ocean and delivering them to ponds near where the birds live.Some 10,000 pairs of the birds, called fulmars, a kind of Arctic seabird, make their nests on Devon Island, north of the Arctic Circle.The fulmars travel some 400 kilometers over the sea to find food.When they return home, their droppings end up all around their nesting sites, including in nearby ponds.Previously, scientists noticed pollutants arriving in the Arctic with the wind.Salmon also carry dangerous chemicals as the fish migrate between rivers and the sea.The bodies of fish and other meat-eaters can build up high levels of the chemicals.To test the polluting power of fulmars, researchers collected samples of deposit from 11 ponds on Devon Island.In ponds closest to the colony, the results showed there were far more pollutants than in ponds less affected by the birds.The pollutants in the ponds appear to come from fish that fulmars eat when they're out on the ocean.People who live, hunt, or fish near bird colonies need to be careful, the researchers say.The birds don't mean to cause harm, but the chemicals they carry can cause major problems.Questions 9 to 12 are based on the passage you have just

TwoIn recent years, the death rate among American centenarians—people who have lived to age 100 or older— has decreased, dropping 14 percent for women and 20 percent for men from 2023 to 2023.The leading causes of death in this age group are also changing.In 2023, the top five causes of death for centenarians were heart disease, stroke, flu, cancer and Alzheimer's disease.But by 2023, the death rate from Alzheimer's disease for this age group had more than doubled—increasing from 3.8 percent to 8.5 percent—making the progressive brain disease the second leading cause of death for centenarians.One reason for the rise in deaths from Alzheimer's disease in this group may be that developing this condition remains possible even after people beat the odds of dying from other diseases such as cancer.People physically fit enough to survive over 100 years ultimately give in to diseases such as Alzheimer's which affects the mind and cognitive function.In other words, it appears that their minds give out before their bodies do.On the other hand, the death rate from flu dropped from 7.4 percent in 2023 to 4.1 percent in 2023.That pushed flu from the third leading cause of death to the fifth.Overall, the total number of centenarians is going up.In 2023, there were 72,197 centenarians, compared to 50,281 in 2023.But because this population is getting larger, the number of deaths in this group is also increasing— 18,434 centenarians died in 2023, whereas 25,914 died in 2023.Questions 13 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard.Questio.13.Wha.doe.th.speake.sa.abou.th.ris.o.dyin.fo.America.centenari

I think what we need to do is consider a definition.I'm going to define what love is but then most of the experiments I'm going to talk about are really focused more on attraction than love.And I'm going to pick a definition from a former colleague, Robert Sternberg, who is now the dean at Tufts University but was here on our faculty at Yale for nearly thirty years.And he has a theory of love that argues that it's made up of three components: intimacy, passion, and commitment, or what is sometimes called decision commitment.And these are relatively straightforward.He argued that you don't have love if you don't have all three of these elements.Intimacy is the feeling of closeness, of connectedness with someone, of bonding.Operationally, you could think of intimacy as you share secrets, you share information with this person that you don't share with anybody else.Okay.That'rmatio.tha.i sn'.share.wit.othe.people.The second element is passion.Passion is the drive that leads to romance.You can think of it as physical attraction.And Sternberg argues that this is a required component of a love relationship.The third element of love in Sternberg's theory is what he calls decision commitment, the decision that one is in a love relationship, the willingness to label it as such, and a commitment to maintain that relationship at least for some period of time.Sternberg would argue it's not love if you don't call it love and if you don't have some desire to maintain the relationship.So if you have all three of these, intimacy, passion and commitment, in Sternberg's theory you have love.Now what's interesting about the theory is what do you have if you only have one out of three or two out of three.What do you have and how is it different if you have a different two out of three?What's interesting about this kind of theorizing is it gives rise to many different combinations that can be quite interesting when you break them down and start to look them carefully.So what I've done is I've taken Sternberg's three elements of love, intimacy, passion and commitment, and I've listed out the different kinds of relationships you would have if you had zero, one, two or three out of the three elements.Questions 16 to 18 are based on the recording you have just heard.Questio.16.Wha.doe.th.speake.sa.abou.mos.o.th.experiment.mentione.i.h

I am Elizabeth Hoffler, Master of Social Work.I am a social worker, a lobbyist, and a special assistant to the executive director at the National Association of Social Workers.Today we are going to be talking about becoming a social worker.Social work is the helping profession.Its primary mission is to enhance human well-being and help meet thebasic needs of all people, with a particular focus on those who are vulnerable, oppressed, and living in poverty.We often deal with complex human needs.Social work is different from other professions, because we focus on the person and environment.We deal with the external factors that impact a person's situation and outlook.And we create opportunity for assessment and intervention, to help clients and communities cope effectively with their reality and change that reality when necessary.In thousands of ways social workers help other people, people from every age, every background, across the country.Wherever needed, social workers come to help.The most well-known aspect of the profession is that of a social safety net.We help guide people to critical resources and counsel them on life-changing decisions.There are more than 600,000 professional social workers in the country, and we all either have a bachelor's degree, a master's degree, or a PhD in Social Work.There are more clinically trained social workers than clinically trained psychiatrists, psychologists, and psychiatric nurses combined.Throughout this series you will learn more about the profession, the necessary steps to get a social work degree, the rich history of social work, and the many ways that social workers help others.Later in this series, you will hear from Stacy Collins and Mel Wilson, fellow social workers at the National Association of Social Workers.Stacy is going to walk you through the step-by-step process of becoming a social worker, and Mel will tell you about the range of options you have once you get your social work degree, as well as the high standards of responsibility he social workers must adhere to.The National Association of Social Workers represents nearly 145,000 social workers across the country.Our mission is to promote, protect, and advance the social work profession.We hope you enjoy this series about how you can make a difference by becoming a social worker.Next, we are going to talk about choosing social work.Questions 19 to 22 are based on the recording you have just heard.Questio.19.Wha.doe.th.speake.mainl.tal.about?Questio.20.Wha.d.socia.worker.mainl.do?mon.accordin.t.th.speaker?Questio.22.Wha.i.Me.Wilso.goin.t.tal.abou.i.th.series?Recording ThreeToday, I'd like to talk about what happens when celebrity role models get behind healthy habits, but at the same time, promote junk food.Currently, there's mounting criticism of Michelle Obama's “Let's Move!”campaign, which fights childhood obesity by encouraging youngsters to become more physically active, and has signed on singer Beyoncéand basketball player Shaquille O'Neal, both of whom also endorse sodas, which are a major contributor to the obesity epidemic.Now there's a lot more evidence of how powerful a celebrity— especially a professional athlete— can be in influencing children's behavior.In a report published by the Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity at Yale University, researchers studied 100 professional athletes and their endorsement contracts.The team focused on athletes since they are theoretically the best role models for active, healthy lifestyles for children.After sorting the deals by category, they determined that among the 512 brands associated with the athletes, most involved sporting goods, followed closely by food and beverage brands.Sports drinks, which are often high in sugar and calories made up most ofthe food and drink deals, with soft drinks and fast food filling out the remainder.Of the 46 beverages endorsed by professional athletes, 93% relied exclusively on sugar for all of their calories.It's no surprise that high-profile athletes can influence children's eating behaviors, but the scientists were able to quantify how prevalent these endorsements are in the children's environment.Advertisements featuring professional athletes and their endorsed products tend to get impressive exposure on TV, radio, in print and online.And in 2023, the researchers reported that children ages 12 to 17 saw more athlete-endorsed food and beverage brand commercials than adults.One reason any campaign wants a popular celebrity spokesperson is because kids are attracted to them no matter what they are doing.We can't expect kids to turn off that admiration when the same person is selling sugar.At best, kids might be confused.At worst, they'll think the messages about soda are the same as the messages about water, but those two beverages aren't the same.If children are turning to athletes as role models, it's in their best interest if their idols are consistent.Consistent messaging of positive behaviors will show healthier lifestylesfor kids to follow.Questions 23 to 25 are based on the recording you have just heard.Questio.23.Wha.i.th.ai.o.Michell.Obama'.campaign?Questio.24.Wha.doe.researc.fin.abou.advertisement.featurin.professiona. athletes?Questio.25.Wha.doe.th.speake.thin.kids.idol.shoul.do?对话一男:

全新版大学英语Unit_7阅读教程翻译
不能就这样结束了那是个1月的夜晚,医院里异常安静,安静沉寂得像是暴风雨的前夕。
我站在七楼的护士值班室,看了一眼钟表,夜里九点了。
挂上听诊器,我朝712房间走去,这是位于大厅最底端的一间病房,里面有个新来的病人,威廉姆先生。
他孤零零一个人,对家人只字不提,很是奇怪。
我走进病房时,威廉姆先生期待地抬起了头,看到是他的护士,又垂下了双目。
我把听诊器贴在他胸前听了一听,心率强弱交替,跳动平稳,正是我想要的效果。
似乎看不出他几小时前曾突发过轻微的心脏病。
他在雪白的病床上抬起头。
“护士,你能不能……”。
他欲言又止,眼中噙满泪水。
我抚摸着他的手,等他说下去。
他擦掉泪水,说:“能给我女儿打个电话吗?告诉她我得了心脏病。
很轻的心脏病。
你知道么,我孤单一人,女儿是我唯一的家人了。
”他的呼吸骤然急促起来。
我把他的鼻插氧气呼吸器调高到8升每分钟。
“没问题,我会打给她,”我注视着他的表情回答。
他抓住床单,用力抬起身子,显得非常急切。
“能现在就打给她吗,越快越好,行吗?”他喘息起来,越来越快。
“我马上就打,”我拍着他的肩膀说。
我把灯关了,他闭上双眼,对于一位五十岁的人来说,这双眼睛还是那么的湛蓝。
712病房陷入了黑暗,只有水槽下的夜灯还开着。
我不愿独自丢下他,于是挪到窗边一个寂静的角落去了。
窗玻璃冷冰冰的。
向下望去,医院的停车场笼罩在薄雾中。
“护士,”他喊道,“能给我拿支铅笔和一张纸吗?”我拿来一张黄色的小纸片,从兜里掏出一支钢笔,放在了他的床头柜上。
我走回了护士值班室,坐在电话旁。
威廉姆先生的女儿是他资料表上的第一联系人。
我从问讯处查到她的号码,打了过去。
她回答的声音很温柔。
“珍妮,我是医院值班护士凯蒂。
我是替你父亲打来的。
今晚他患了轻度的心脏病入院了,他……”“什么!”她在电话里尖叫起来,吓了我一跳。
“他不会快要死了吧?”“他目前病情稳定,”我说,语气尽量听起来让她感到宽慰。
接下来一阵沉默。
“你千万不能让他死!”她说。

Online learning platforms, interactive multimedia, and virtual reality have become integral tools in the educational process. However, with these advancements come challenges that educators and students alike must navigate. This passage discusses some of the key issues associated with the use of technology in education.Paragraph 1The rise of online learning platforms has made education more accessible to students around the world. These platforms offer a wide range of courses, from basic literacy to advanced technical skills, making it possible for individuals to learn at their own pace. However, the convenience of online learning comes with its own set of challenges. One of the most significant concerns is the potential for increased isolation and decreased social interaction among students.Paragraph 2Interactive multimedia has become a staple in modern classrooms. Videos, simulations, and other multimedia tools can help students visualize complex concepts and engage with the material in a more interactive way. However, the use of multimedia can also create a barrier for students with disabilities. For example, individuals with visual impairments may struggle to access information presented in visual formats, while those with hearing impairments may find it difficult to follow along with audio-only content.Paragraph 3Virtual reality (VR) has the potential to revolutionize the way students learn. By immersing students in virtual environments, educators can create realistic simulations that allow students to experience historical events, explore scientific concepts, and even practice medical procedures. However, VR technology is still in its infancy, and it is not yet widely accessible to allstudents. Additionally, the cost of VR hardware and software can be prohibitive for many educational institutions.Paragraph 4While technology offers numerous benefits to the educational process, it also presents several challenges. One of the most pressing concerns is the potential for technology to create a digital divide. Students from low-income families may not have access to the necessary devices or internet connections to fully participate in online learning. Furthermore, the over-reliance on technology can lead to a lack of critical thinking skills and a diminished focus on foundational learning.Questions1、What is one of the main concerns associated with online learning platforms?A. The lack of social interaction among students.B. The difficulty of accessing information in visual formats.C. The high cost of VR technology.D. The limited availability of advanced technical skills.2、How can interactive multimedia create a barrier for students with disabilities?A. It limits the number of courses available to students.B. It makes it difficult for students to follow along with audio-only content.C. It requires students to have advanced technical skills.D. It increases the risk of students becoming isolated.3、What is the potential of virtual reality to revolutionize the way students learn?A. It allows students to practice medical procedures in a virtual environment.B. It increases the risk of students becoming isolated.C. It makes it difficult for students to visualize complex concepts.D. It creates a digital divide among students.4、What is one of the challenges associated with the use of technology in education?A. The potential for technology to create a digital divide.B. The decrease in critical thinking skills among students.C. The difficulty of accessing information in visual formats.D. The lack of social interaction among students.5、What is the main focus of the passage?A. The benefits of online learning platforms.B. The challenges associated with the use of technology in education.C. The importance of critical thinking skills in education.D. The potential of virtual reality to revolutionize the way students learn.Answers1、A2、B3、A4、A5、B第二题Reading PassageIn the digital age, the importance of lifelong learning has never been more evident.

You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Bill Gates, the billionaire Microsoft chairman without a single earneduniversity degree, is by his success raising new doubts about the worth of the business world’s favorite academic title: the MBA (Master of Business Administration).The MBA, a 20th-century product, always has borne the mark of lowly commerce and greed (贪婪) on the tree-lined campuses ruled by purer disciplines such as philosophy and literature.But even with the recession apparently cutting into the hiring of business school graduates, about 79,000 people are expected to receive MBAs in 1993. This is nearly 16 times the number of business graduates in 1960, a testimony to the wide spread assumption that the MBA is vital for young men and women who want to run companies some day.“If you are going into the corporate world it is still a disadvantage not to have one,”said Donald Morrison, professor of marketing and management science. “But in the last five years or so, when someone says, ‘Should I attempt to get an MBA,’the answer a lot more is: It depends.”The success of Bill Gates and other non-MBAs, such as the late Sam Walton of Wal-Mart Stores Inc., has helped inspire self-conscious debates on business school campuses over the worth of a business degree and whether management skills can be taught.The Harvard Business Review printed a lively, fictional exchange of letters to dramatize complaints about business degree holders.The article called MBA hires “extremely disappointing”and said “MBAs want to move up too fast, they don’t understand politics and people, and they aren’t able to function as part of a team until their third year. But by then, they’re out looking for other jobs.”The problem, most participants in the debate acknowledge, is that the MBA has acquired an aura (光环) of future riches and power far beyond its actual importance and usefulness.Enrollment in business schools exploded in the 1970s and 1980s and created the assumption that no one who pursued a business career could do without one. The growth was fueled by a backlash (反冲) against the anti-business values of the 1960s and by the women’s movement.Business people who have hired or worked with MBAs say those with the degrees of ten know how to analyze systems but are not so skillful at motivating people. “They don’t get a lot of grounding in the people side of the business”, said James Shaffer, vice-president and principal of the Towers Perrin management consulting firm.21. According to Paragraph 2, what is the general attitude towards business on campuses dominated by purer disciplines?A) Scornful.B) Appreciative.C) Envious.D) Realistic.22. It seems that the controversy over the value of MBA degrees had been fueled mainly by ________.A) the complaints from various employersB) the success of many non-MBAsC) the criticism from the scientists of purer disciplinesD) the poor performance of MBAs at work23. What is the major weakness of MBA holders according to the Harvard Business Review?A) They are usually self-centered.B) They are aggressive and greedy.C) They keep complaining about their jobs.D) They are not good at dealing with people.24. From the passage we know that most MBAs ________.A) can climb the corporate ladder fairly quicklyB) quit their jobs once they are familiar with their workmatesC) receive salaries that do not match their professional trainingD) cherish unrealistic expectations about their future25. What is the passage mainly about?A) Why there is an increased enrollment in MBA programs.B) The necessity of reforming MBA programs in business schools.C) Doubts about the worth of holding an MBA degree.D) A debate held recently on university campuses.Passage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.When school officials in Kalkaska, Michigan, closed classes last week, the media flocked to the story, portraying the town’s 2,305 students as victims of stingy (吝啬的) taxpayers. There is some truth to that; the property-tax rate here is one-third lower than the state average. But shutting their schools also allowed Kalkask’s educators and the state’s largest teachers’union, the Michigan Education Association, to make a political point. Their aim was to spur passage of legislation Michigan lawmakers are debating to increase the state’s share of school funding. It was no coincidence that Kalkaska shut its schools two weeks after residents rejected a 28 percent property-tax increase. The school board argued that without the increase it lacked the $1.5 million needed to keep schools open.But the school system had not done all it could to keep the schools open. Officials declined to borrow against next year’s state aid, they refused to trim extra curricular activities and they did not consider seeking a smaller—perhaps more acceptable—tax increase. In fact, closing early is costing Kalkaska a significant amount, including $600,000 in unemployment payments to teachers and staff and $250,000 in lost stateaid. In February, the school system promised teachers and staff two months of retirement payments in case schools closed early, a deal that will cost the district $275,000 more.Other signs suggest school authorities were at least as eager to make a political statement as to keep schools open. The Michigan Education Association hired a public relations firm to stage a rally marking the school closing, which attracted 14 local and national television stations and networks. The president of the National Education Association, the MEA’s parent organization, flew from Washington, D. C., for the event. And the union tutored school officials in the art of television interviews. School supervisor Doyle Disbrow acknowledges the district could have kept schools open by cutting programs but denies the moves were politically motivated.Michigan lawmakers have reacted angrily to the closings. The state Senate has al ready voted to put the system into receivership (破产管理) and reopen schools immediately; the Michigan House plans to consider the bill this week.26. We learn from the passage that schools in Kalkaska, Michigan, are funded ________.A) by both the local and state governmentsB) exclusively by the local governmentC) mainly by the state governmentD) by the National Education Association27. One of the purposes for which school officials closed classes was ________.A) to avoid paying retirement benefits to teachers and staffB) to draw the attention of local taxpayers to political issuesC) to make the financial difficulties of their teachers and staff known to the publicD) to pressure Michigan lawmakers into increasing state funds for local schools28. The author seems to disapprove of ________.A) the Michigan lawmakers’endless debatingB) the shutting of schools in KalkaskaC) the involvement of the mass mediaD) delaying the passage of the school funding legislation29. We learn from the passage that school authorities in Kalkaska are concerned about ________.A) a raise in the property-tax rate in MichiganB) reopening the schools there immediatelyC) the attitude of the MEA’s parent organizationD) making a political issue of the closing of the schools30. According to the passage, the closing of the schools developed intoa crisis because of ________.A) the complexity of the problemB) the political motives on the part of the educatorsC) the weak response of the state officialsD) the strong protest on the part of the students’parents。

the moment后面有两个定语从句,I needed it the most 和just when…······我听见观众高声叫喊,在我最需要的时候为我加油助威——这时我的腿疼得要命,我看见我和那个俄罗斯运动员之间距离正在拉大。

大学英语第六册Unit7课文翻译
遨游宇宙立昂.贾洛夫夜幕降临,暮色笼罩着英格兰剑桥市。
在一个潮湿、寒冷的夜晚,“国王阅兵场”上到处是剑桥大学的师生。
这时,沿着拥挤的大道驶来了校园内最有特色的一部车子,上面载着该校最著名的公民。
在这辆机动轮椅上坐着的是世界上最伟大的理论物理学家之一,四十六岁的斯蒂芬.威廉.霍金。
固定在轮椅左边靠手上的是一只发光的计算机荧幕隐隐约约地照出了他那张孩子似的脸庞。
当他熟悉地驾着轮椅驶过人群时,开汽车的人都放慢车速,有的还揿揿喇叭向他致意。
人们挥着手,大声跟他打招呼。
戴着眼镜的霍金满脸闪露出笑容,但他既不能挥手,也不能回喊作答。
他刚二十岁出头时就患了肌萎缩性脊髓侧索硬化症(ALS)。
这是一种使中枢神经系统日益退化的病症,患者一般在三四年内就会死亡。
霍金的病情发展较慢,目前看来几乎已经稳定。
然而,这病仍使他失去了几乎所有的活动能力。
他已经不能控制大部分肌肉,不能自己穿衣进食,不能开口说话。
现在他只能依靠手和手指还剩下的一点随意运动的能力操纵装在轮椅上的计算机和声音合成器来“说话”了。
虽然ALS病症使霍金成了一个活动不便的残疾人,但他的勇气和幽默仍完整无损。
他的智力仍在自由地漫游。
他的智力也的确是在漫游,从无穷小漫游到无穷大,从亚原子王国漫游到宇宙的遥远区域。
在这些智力探索的过程中,霍金已经够想出一些有关黑洞以及紧接着形成宇宙的“大爆炸”而产生的各种纷乱活动的惊人的新理论。
最近,他又提出了宇宙没有边际,它既不是创造出来的,将来也不会毁灭的看法,从而使物理学家和神学家们都大为震惊。
斯蒂芬.霍金的大部分创见是在剑桥大学形成的。
他现在是该校的卢卡斯数学教授,这是艾克萨.牛顿曾经担任过的一个教职。
在剑桥大学的数学和理论物理系,他仁慈地“统治”着相对论小组,组里有来自九个国家的十五名出类拔萃的研究生。
他的办公室门上有一块小饰板,上面大不敬的写着:请安静,老板在睡觉。
没那回事儿。
从上午九点到下午七点左右回家吃饭,霍金一直都在四壁排满书、面前摆着夫人简和三个孩子照片的办公室里工作,每日的工作量之大足以使身体最强壮的人也感到劳累不堪。

我也看过很多她的电影啊,罗马假日啊,蒂凡尼早餐啊啥的,但是我不太明白,她真的这么伟大吗?W: well, for me, my adoration goes beyond her movies. She had such a classic elegance about her. She was always so poised, in part because she spent years training as a ballet dancer before becoming an actress.女:对我来说,我对她的喜欢不仅仅是电影哦。
她有一种典雅气质。
部分原因是因为她当演员前一直是一名芭蕾舞演员哦,她给人一种镇定自若的感觉。
M: why didn’t she stick to dancing as a career?男:那她为什么没有一直在舞蹈事业上发展呢?W: (2) It seems it was fate. She suffered from inadequate nutrition during the war, and therefore, a career as a professional dancer would have been too demanding on her body. So she focused on acting instead. Roman Holiday was her first break which made her a star.女:可能是命运的安排吧。

I went with Christina, Dawn, and Rachel. We were all excited because we had heard so much about it. It's supposed to be the biggest mall in the whole region. To be honest, though, I didn't think it could live up to all the hype we've heard in the news. I was even prepared to be a little disappointed.However, we were incredibly impressed! It was hugeand there were so many stores! We spent all day there, checking out the stores. Despite the many temptations to spend money, I actually had remarkable self-control! The last thing I need is to go into debt. I bought a few items for my parents, a really fashionable pair of shoes for myself, and we all grabbed a snack at one of the many resta urants.It was fascinating to see so many people all in one place and the combined enthusiasm was contagious. I just don't understand one thing, though. I saw several men falling asleep on couches between some of the stores. How on earth could someone be bored in such an exciting place with so much to see and do? The sheer number of st ores kept us moving all day.By the time I got home, it was dark outside and I was exhausted. A long day of shopp ing is hard work!

I'll admit it, I absolutely spoilhim! Why not?Charlie's the best puppy in the world!41 to 45Families around the world are very much the same and very different. Culture, beliefs, and family structure are usually closely connected. Relatively speaking, families in Asian cul tures tend to be closer and play a more important role in society than those in many other cultures.Society in Mongolia has traditionally been, and continues to be, nomadic in nature. Famili es tend to live in close proximity with each other in single-room homes, even in cities. Th ough families tend to be physically and emotionally close, there also exist strong relation ships between generations. As in most Asian countries, respect for the elderly andfor on e's parents is strong and younger generations are expected to value and follow the exam ples set forth by the older. Many Mongolians continue to adhere tothe proverb, "Regardlessof how good a son is born, he can never be wise without a father's instructions."Similar to many Chinese cultures, the Spring Festival (lunar New Year) is a major holiday and occasion for families to come together. On New Year's Eve, the entire family will gat her for singing, dancing, offering thanks to the elder generations, cooking and eating a lar ge feast, and storytelling. Celebrations will often last through the night. For many families that inhabit the generally isolated countryside, this is a rare opportunity fortogetherness, festivities, and thanksgiving.Traditionally, Mongolians viewed the family as their primary obligation. Therefore, the fa mily, rather than the individual, usually defines the basic unit of social organization. Since many Mongolians lead nomadic lifestyles and / or live in very remote locations, parents were historically responsible for disciplining and educating their children. Many urban fam ilies now have the option to send children to public schools or private boarding schools. Many children in the countryside, however, continue to spend most of theirchildhoods herding livestock, as they do not have the opportunity to attendformal school.41.

翻译策略
9) 词性转换
词性转换不仅是重要的译词手段,也是常用的句法转换变通手段,是一种常用的翻译技巧。
说白了,就是在必要的时候,将原文中的某个词的词性在译文里用其他词性表达出来。
这种转换会使译文更加灵活变通,不必拘泥于原文形式,却能更准确传达出原文内涵。
本部分内容主要从汉译英入手。
从四个方面加以说明。
1)汉语动词的转换
汉语动词的使用频率远远高于英语。
这是因为按照英语句法,受主谓关系的限制,一个简单句或分句大多只有一个谓语动词。
而且,英语还可以通过谓语动词以外各种词性的词来体现动词意义。
因此将汉语句子里的动词转换为英语里其他词性的词是翻译中的常用技巧之一。
例1 这本书反映了30年代的中国社会。
译文:The book is a reflection of Chinese society in the 1930s.(将汉语动词转换为英语名词)
例2 他们不满足于现有的成就。
译文:They were not content with their present achievements.(将汉语动词转换为英语形容词)
例3 我想男孩与女孩的思维方式不同。
译文:I suppose boys think differently from girls.(将汉语动词转换为英语副词)例4 你赞成还是反对这项计划?
译文:Are you for or against the plan?(将汉语动词转化为英语介词)
2)汉语名词的转换
英语中有很多由名词派生的动词,以及由名词转用的副词,形容词等。
在汉译英时,汉语中的名词常常可以产生一些转换,从而更简洁有力地表达原文。
例5 他们尽了最大的努力帮助病号和伤员。
译文:They did their best to help the sick and the wounded.(汉语名词转换为英语副词)
例6 钢的含炭量越高,强度和硬度就越大。
译文:The more carbon the steel contains, the harder and stronger it is.(汉语名词转换为英语形容词表示特征和性质)
例7 这就是你不对的地方。
译文:This is where you are wrong.(汉语名词转换为英语副词)
例8 我的体重比过去轻了。
译文:I weigh less than I used to.(汉语名词转换为英语动词)
3) 汉语形容词的转换
在汉译英时,汉语的形容词往往可以译成英语中的名词或副词。
这些名词或副词通常具有抽象意义,而且往往由某些形容词派生而来。
例9 我们感到,解决这个复杂的问题是困难的。
译文:We found difficulty in solving this complicated problem.(汉语形容词转换
为英语名词)
例10有时候我们不得不为错误付出昂贵的代价。
译文:Sometimes we have to pay dearly for mistakes.(汉语形容词转换为英语副词)
4)汉语副词的转换
有时出于修辞和句法结构的需要,往往把汉语中的副词用英语其他词性的词来表达,这
也是翻译中的一个常用技巧。
例11 独立思考对学习是绝对必需的。
译文:Independent thinking is an absolute necessity in study.(汉语副词转换为英语名词)
例12 他以前经常来。
译文:He was a regular visitor.(汉语副词转换为英语形容词)
例13 我成功地说服了他。
译文:I succeeded in persuading him.(汉语副词转换为英语动词)
总之,在英汉互译中,我们可以利用词类的变化,使句型结构发生变化,为语言的转换提供更大的可行性和灵活性。
Exercise Seven
1.I replied to her that _______________ (我将会接受她的邀请).
2.She was angry with her husband ,so _____________ (她不理不睬)when he spoke to her..
3.How could we get news in our own society or abroad ______________ (没有报纸的话)?
4.The latest census shows that China’s population ______________ (已超过10亿)
5.We have had ten recorders ,but we still need ____________(需要这么多)as again.
答案:
1. I would accept her invitation
解析:本题考点一是时态的一致。
由于前半句时态是replied,因此“将要”应译为would。
本题考点二是“接受”的英文表达。
accept和receive都有表示接受的意思。
receive指客观已经发生的情况。
它只表明事实上收到某物而不管接受者主观上是否愿意接受。
如:My father received a letter this morning. 而accept 带有主动或赞许的意味,表示不但收下某物,而且内心也同意接受。

解析:由句意可知,她是对丈夫生气了,因而丈夫和她说话时她不予理睬。

Ignore是故意不理睬别人,而neglect是表示疏忽(责任等),并非故意,常和to连用,如:Don’t neglect to lock the door.
3. without newspaper
解析:本句是一个与现在事实相反的虚拟语气句,虚拟语气句并不一定全部
要用if条件句引导。
很多情况下,一些介词或介词短语,副词短语的出现要求整个句子使用虚拟语气。
without就是其中之一。
如:I couldn’t have passed this exam without your help.(没有你的帮助,我不可能通过这次考试。
)这句话用if 条件句来表达就是I couldn’t have passed this exam if I hadn’t had your help. 除了without外,英语里还有很多这样的词或短语是虚拟语气标志词。
如:as if,as though,lest,for fear that,in case,even if,even though,in order that,so that,大家在复习虚拟语气语法点的时候要注意总结。
