According to this law all projects to modify a body of water can be carried out only after a through study to discover what damage may be caused to the wil d life in that area. Many states have not complied with the law. In three southern states, Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi, about 1.2 million acres of wil d life habitats have been covered with water because of dams which have been constructed there. Another plan to buil d a dam in Tennessee was fought because it woul d fl ood large areas ofwil d life habitat particularly endangering a species of small fish call ed the snail darter. The proposed dam woul d also d estroy several important archeol ogical sites, including the ancestral capital of the ancient Cherryky Indian nation.

I mean, for exampl e, their reaction to young peopl e and student youth, they may have l ong hair or very short hair even skin heads, is quite different from peopl e who are sort of mid dl e aged. They have well spoken middl e class voices. It’s quite wrong.2) You ask how l ong it takes to drive across London. Well, it depends on traffic. If the roads aren’t too busy, you can do it in about an hour.But if you go during the rush hour, then of course, it can take much l onger. It also depends on how well you know the roads. If you don’t know the best routes, it can take you hours to get through, because you will get stuck in one way systems, and end up mil es away from where you want to go.。
16第三版中级口译梅德明版本doc文档
汉语概要欢迎各位参加汉语学习班。
作为学习班的第一课，我想介绍一下汉语有别于欧洲语言的一些普通特征。
对于那些只熟悉普通的欧洲语言的人来说，汉语是一种截然不同的语言。
但是，如果我们仔细观察一下汉语额结构，我们便可发现这种结构并非特别复杂。
事实上汉语在许多方面较西方语言更为简单。
既然汉语与欧洲语言之间存在一些根本性的不同点，那么了解一下汉语结构及其发展过程，将有助于各位学习汉语。
在西方人看来，汉语的书写体系是一种全新的体系：他们所看的不是排列整齐、笔画简单的字母，而是数以千计、形态各异的文字，学多文字看上去错综复杂，笔画纵横交错得令人难以置信。
对许多西方人来说，汉语听上去颇有旋律感，或许有点像歌曲。
你若透过汉语的表象看其内部结构，也许会有更多的惊讶。
汉语基本上没有什么动词变化形式，也没有名词变格。
汉语的语法全然没有那些令西方学童生畏的、语法手册中必有的词形变化表。
例如，英语动词to buy 有各种变化形式，如buy\bought 和buying, 而汉语只有一种形式买。
又如英语名词book 有单复数之分，而汉语只有书一种形式。
上下文常常可以清楚地表明动词的时态和语态，以及名词的数。
因而，汉语无需依靠这种特别的语法结构。
也许正因为汉语这种结构上的简洁性，著名的美国人类学暨语言学家爱德华萨皮尔将汉语描绘为一种有着合理逻辑性的语言。
汉语常被认为是一种非常古老的语言。
从某种意义上说，这种说法不免失之偏颇。
人类所有的语言都可以追溯到朦胧的史前时期，但目前我们还无法确定这些语言是否都同宗同源。
五千年前华夏祖先说汉语的方法同英语人士的祖先说英语的方法大致相似。
而从另外一种意义上说，汉语确实是一种很古老的语言。
今天所存留下来的最早的汉字已有近四千年的历史。
这些文字均为甲骨雕文。
大部分铭文为神谕圣言，内容大都与政治事件和宗教活动有关，有些则是阳光浴天气或战争的记录。
汉语有丰富的古代文字作品，源远流长，远非任何其他一种语言的文字可与之媲美。

Q: 您好，杰克逊先生。
您在中国己连续工作了三年，您能否谈一下中美两国生意人在商务沟通方式上有何不同之处? Hi, Mr. Jackson. You have been working in China for three years. Can you tell us how you feel about the differences in business communication style between Chinese and American businessmen? A: With pleasure. 1 think there are at least two differences in the way of business communication between Chinese and American businesspeople. First, Chinese businessmen tendto have business negotiations in a rather indirect manner, as opposed(与…相反) to the more direct manner of American businesspeople. The Chinese take time to learn if their prospective（预期的） business contacts are really reliable, 中国人会花费时间来了解他们将要与之打交道的商人是否靠得住，for example, by inviting them to a party and socializing(（与…）交往，联谊)with them. In contrast, Americans usually act with the "get down-to-business-first" mentality. Second, the decision making process of Chinese companies is generally slow and time-consuming. This is because most Chinese companies keep to the "bottom-up, then top-down and then bottom-up" decision-making principle（原则） which involves many people at different levels. 各个层次上的许多人士都介人决策过程American companies, on the other hand, usually operate withquick decisions made by the top management. 1 hope American businesspeople in China will understand these differences in business practices and adjust to the Chinese way.Q: 美国式的经营之道在我们中国人看来往往显得咄咄逼人。

上外中级口译第三版听力教程原文及讲解--Unit-16
Unit 16.Part one. Air quality in Britain. 2. Exercises.1. Listen to the passage about air quality in Britain. And then briefly answer the following questions.Air quality in Britain has improved considerably in the last 30 years. Total emissions of smoke in the air have fallen by over 85 percent since 1960. London and other major cities no longer have the dense smoke led in smog of the 1950s. And in central London winter sunshine has increased by about 70 percent since the late 1950s. However new concerns have arisen, especially over the emissions from the growing number of motor vehicles, and their possible impact on health. Measures have consequently been adopted to reduce substantially emissions from new vehicles. The environment act of 1995 provides a new frame work for air quality management, including the publication by the government of the national strategy which was said air qualities standards and targets for the pollutants causing the most concern. This was issued for consultation in August 1996 containing air quality targets for the year 2005. The act also places new duties on local authorities to assess air quality in their boundaries, and to prepare action plans where standards are not met or are likely to be met in future. Pilot schemes are being taken forward in 14 areas before full implementation in April 1997. Earlier legislation allows local authorities to declare smoke control areas within which the emission of smoke from chimneys is in offends. About two thirds of the dwellings in connorbations are covered by smoke control orders around 6,340 are in force.2. Listen again and supply the missing information.Part two. Statements. 2. Exercises. Listen and then choose the answer that is closest in meaning to the statement you hear.1) According to the regulations enforced by the health care authorities visitors aren’t allowed to stay in the hospital after 10 p.m.2) The famous pop singer will give her last performance in town on Friday afternoon. Wouldn’t it be nice if we didn’t have to work this Friday.3) The bicycle rider was refused help by several passing motorists on the side of the highway leading into the town center.4) The lawyer revea led that John was named the only beneficiary in his uncle’s will which was a surprise to all.

And the new management training program will start later this week.6) The client, a retired engineer in his early 70s was unhappy because the lawyer had turned down his case.7) After the building was damaged by a fire caused by faulty wires, the inhabitants were paid by the insurance company.8) Everyone knows the following trend as the technology of electronics improves, the prices of personal computers should come down.9) There should be one of those dresses that can fit you. They come in 3 different sizes. They are all imported from France or Britain.10) Moner has been offered the manager’s job, although she has hardly any work experience. This is a big surprise even for herself.11) I need to do something to improve my spoken French. I don’t know whether the community college offer something.12) At the board meeting held last Friday she voted against the investment plan, because she thinks it involves too great a risk.13) The landlord collects rent on the first of the month without fail. So I need to always have cash ready before the end of each month.14) The president appointed Mr. Brown head of the newly formed commission, although Mr. Brown is already well over 60 and he is expected to retire soon.15) In order to make more money to support her two sons Martha is holding down 2 jobs at the same time, but she’d better take it easy.16) Pawl looked better when we visited him in the hospital last week.

But he had to decide for himself in my opinion.Part three. 3. Exercises.1. Acid rain. Listen to the following passage and then choose the best answer to each question you hear.M: You know everyone today is concerned about pollution. And scientists are talking a lot about one kind of pollution, acid rain.W: Why exactly is it called acid rain?M: It’s called acid rain because the rain or some other kind of precipitation has been polluted with acid.W: Where does the acid come from?M: From cars or factories, anything that burns coal or oil. These are made up mostly of sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, which react with water vapor to form sulphuric acid or nitric acid.W: You mean that when coal or oil is burned acid gets formed. And when it rains or snows the acid falls back on the earth?M: Exactly. That’s why it is so dangerous. Acid rain has been falling over areas of Northern American and Northern Europe. And if it isn’t checked the affect on the water supply and plant of animal life could be disastrous.W: This is something I should read more about.Questions:1) What is the best topic of this conversation?2) What energy sources cause acid rain?3) How is sulphuric acid formed?4) According to the man where is acid rain a problem?5) What action does the woman think she should take next?2. Is nuclear power safe? Listen to the following dialogue about the use of nuclear power, and then choose the best answer to each question you hear.M: The energy minster announced at a press conference yesterday the construction of 3 more nuclear power stations. These were forms of a vital part of the government’s energy plans for the next 2 decades. And it needed to satisfy the country’s growing demands for electricity. The plans were strongly criticized by opposition MPs as well as anti-nuclear and environmentalist groups.W: They must be absolutely mad. More nuclear power stations?M: OK, Jane. But we’ve got to get the energy from somewhere, haven’t we? We can’t just go on using oil and coal.W: Look, the main point is that they are just not safe. They are real menace. Every one of these things is an accident waiting to happen. Look at the Chernobyl forgotten to sake.M: Yes, OK. I agree there is a risk, of course there is. But it’s minimal. With modern technology nuclear reactors are much safer.W: Much safer? You must be joking. No, look at all that radio active waste they are dumping into the sea and underground, nobody really knows what will happen long term.M: That is a problem, sure. But it’s also true that nuclear energy is cheap and can produce electricity very quickly. Lots of countr ies have no alternatives. They don’t have any oil, coal, or anything. What are they suppose to do?W: Oh, come on. There are lots of possibilities. Well, quite a few. We just haven’t really looked at them seriously enough. There are solar energy and wind power and what’s called wave power. We still got a lot of coal.M: All right, but that all take time and money to develop. We need energy now. And nuclear power is the best alternative.W: Oh, I don’t believe this. I reckon it just crazy.Questions:1) Who made the government announcement yesterday?2) What is the government planning to do?3) How does the woman feel about this?4) What is the woman’s main argument?5) Which of the following statements is not true about the man’s argument?3. Building dams. Listen to a college report and then choose the best answer to each questionyou hear.Millions of acres of lands of all kinds of wild life made their homes have been ruined in recent years. This land has been ruined by federally approved water projects such as dams built in violation of the rarely enforced law passed in 1934. According to this law all projects to modify a body of water can be carried out only after a through study to discover what damage may be caused to the wild life in that area. Many states have not complied with the law. In three southern states, Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi, about 1.2 million acres of wild life habitats have been covered with water because of dams which have been constructed there. Another plan to build a dam in Tennessee was fought because it would flood large areas of wild life habitat particularly endangering a species of small fish called the snail darter. The proposed dam would also destroy several important archeological sites, including the ancestral capital of the ancient Cherryky Indian nation. To prevent any further destruction the public must become accurately informed about the advantages and disadvantages of our national water projects. Only then can we be assured the existing laws will be enforced.Questions:1) According to the speaker why have many animals and birds lost their homes?2) What type of projects does the 1934 law deal with?3) What is required by the rarely enforced 1934 law?4) According to the speaker how many southern states have lost land because of dams?5) Why did people fight a plan to build a dam in Tennessee?6) According to the speaker how can further destruction be prevented?7) According to the speaker who can prevent further destruction?Part four. Listening and translation. 2. Exercises.1. Sentence translation. Listen and translate each sentence you have heard into Chinese. Then write it in the space given below.1) I have some funds on hand, and I am wondering whether I ought to put them in the saving’s account.2) The university is building a language laboratory for the department of English, and the job is scheduled to be completed early next year.3) The balance of powers is keeping us out of war because neither side would really dare to start a war because of the consequences.4) In addition to using newspapers and the phone the internet has become the tool for getting more details on job openings, applications and other necessary information.5) On the days they worked employed men worked about an hour more than employed women, 7.9 versus 7.1 hours, the US department of labor reported today.2. Passage translation. Listen and translate each passage you have heard into Chinese. Then write it in the space given below. You may take notes while you are listening.1) I resent the way the police react quite differently the different groups of people. I mean, for example, their reaction to young people and student youth, they may have long hair or very short hair even skin heads, is quite different from people who are sort of middle aged. They have well spoken middle class voices. It’s quite wrong.2) You ask how long it takes to drive across London. Well, it depends on traffic. If the roads aren’t too busy, you can do it in about an hour. But if you g o during the rush hour, then of course, it can take much longer. It also depends on how well you know the roads. If you don’t know the best routes, it can take you hours to get through, because you will get stuck in one way systems, and end up miles away from where you want to go.。
