大学口译教程课文翻译4单元The Economic Impact of September 11thClearly, september 11th was an act of brutality that left the world first in shock, then in anger, an act of sudden violence that without warning stole a parent from 10,000 children and that shattered the illusion that we in North America are somehow insulated from external attack.显然，9月11日的暴行使整个世界为之震惊，继而愤怒。
这次突发暴力事件毫无预兆的夺走了一万个孩子的父母，我们原以为北美洲远离外界的袭击，但此次事件打破了这种幻觉。
In response, we have borne witness to an uncompromising resolve that more than matches the initial shock. The world has come together in an uncommon and irrevocable commitment to eliminate the threat of terrorism. The physical assault levelled against us is being met by an international coalition of nations, faiths and force that will not fail.我们已经证明，不妥协的决心是对这次袭击的最佳回应。
全世界人民同仇敌忾，誓在消灭恐怖主义的威胁。
全世界的各个国家，宗教和武装联合起来共同对抗恐怖袭击的行动一定会取得胜利。
口译Unit4
In the feudal society which lasted several millennia and the subsequent hundred odd years of semi-colonial and semi-feudal society, Chinese women experienced a bitter history of prolonged oppression, degradation and abasement. In the first half of the 20th century, Women plunged into an undaunted and heroic struggle lasting several decades, and, under the leadership of Communist Party of China, finally won their historic freedom.
Most importantly, the family reunion dinner must be well prepared. This is an auspicious and the most sumptuous meal of the year, and part of the food must be left over for the coming year, symbolizing that the family have food enough to spare from year to year. Such a bountiful feast is known as the “Crossing-the-Year Meal”. When the meal is prepared, the food is first used as a sacrificial offering to the gods and ancestors.

A Brief Introduction
A. Some Practical Difficulties for Chinese Interpreters For an interpreter, to do a long series of figures in interpretation is always by no means easy. And for an interpreter whose mother tongue is Chinese, the difficulties involved seem to be even greater. Notably among the difficulties are the following:

课外练习Passage 1 Chinese-English Interpretation北京观光客自然都会游览故宫和长城，这是因为故宫和长城是举世闻名的旅游景点。
而今天我却想向各位推荐北京第三大旅游场所，北京世界公园。
北京世界公园于90年代初在北京兴建，是北京的最新旅游景点。
这里游客那种“一日游尽天下景”的梦想便可成真。
北京世界公园的规模雄踞亚洲同类公园之冠，所收微缩复制品的数量也堪称亚洲之最。
世界七大奇观以及50个国家的约100处历史名胜和自然景观均以微缩模型展出。
占地面积46.7公顷的世界公园分为17处风景区，收集了亚洲、非洲、欧洲。
南北美洲以及大洋洲的主要名胜景点。
游客可以在这里观赏法国的凯旋门、埃菲尔铁塔、罗浮宫玻璃金字塔、凡尔赛宫和巴黎圣母院；英国伦敦的塔桥和白金汉宫；意大利的比萨斜塔、罗马大斗兽场、威尼斯水城和圣可马广场；西班牙的阿卡沙堡；德国的科隆大教堂；荷兰的风车和郁金香田园风光；希腊的雅典卫城；俄罗斯的克里姆林宫墙及钟楼；印度的泰姬陵；泰国的泰王宫；柬埔寨的吴哥窟；缅甸的仰光大金塔；新加坡的狮头鱼身像；埃及的基萨金字塔群和阿布辛伯勒神庙；美国的大峡谷和自由女神像；澳大利亚的悉尼歌剧院；墨西哥的巨石头像；智利的复活节岛巨人石像；秘鲁的那斯卡线画；中国的长城和故宫等景物复制品。
这些旅游景观制作精巧，工艺精湛，其中大多为原作的精确复制品，用料均为白玉、理石、上乘花岗岩石或其他优质石料。
例如，莫斯科的红场是以500块比麻将牌还小的红砖铺就而成。
而埃及的金字塔则以20万块大理石砌成。
美国的科罗拉多河和大峡谷的微缩景观高达32米，一条“巨型瀑布”从16米的高处飞流直冲谷底。
公园的东北角有一条300米长的国际街，这条具有欧美建筑风格的国际街集餐饮、购物和娱乐于一体，游客可以在这里领略各国情调，品尝他乡风味，购买纪念礼品，参加各种娱乐活动。
北京世界公园自开放以来已吸引了许多海内外游客前来观赏美景。

To interpret the speech, one must first understand the message of the speech. However, comprehension（理解）of the source discourse goes beyond the simple recognition of words and linguistic structures. The interpreter shall make an analysis of the source discourse. More importantly, the interpreter shall identify（识别）the speech type and know how to identify the main ideas of the original speeches.Identification of the Speech TypesSpeeches are diversified serving different occasions and purposes. It will be of great help to the interpreters if they know the speaker’s style. In most cases, speeches are prepared beforehand. Therefore, a study of the different types of writing helps an interpreter identify the main idea of a given speech. Following are the basic types of writing.1. Descriptive WritingDescriptive（描述性的）writing involves a great deal of detailed information. A descriptive discussion aimed at providing details of an event, a scene, a procedure, or a situation.This speech type demands a thorough background investigation of the speaker and the relevant situation by the interpreter.2. Narrative WritingNarrative（叙述性的）writing focuses on the development of events. There is no doubt that the interpreter should be very sensitive to dates, time phrases, and verb tenses when a narrative speech is dealt with.3. Expositive WritingExpositive（说明性的）writing deals with its subject matter in such orders as chronological, spatial, comparison, and definition. It would be to the advantage of the interpreter to conduct a background investigation of the speaker and the situation, for that would provide the interpreter with not only thenecessary glossary but also the speaker’s standpoint（立场）.4. Persuasive WritingPersuasive（劝说性的）writers always want to make their arguments clear, strong and convincing. When the purpose is to convince, writers of persuasive writing mainly employ two techniques -- induction（归纳）and deduction（推论）. Inductive writing starts with specific examples or points to draw a general conclusion, while deductive writing illustrates its thesis at first and then supports and reinforces the thesis through specific examples or subordinate ideas.Identification of the Main IdeasIn the context of interpreting, the main ideas of the source speech can be identified at the sentence level and at the discourse level. Priority should always be attached to identifying the main idea at the sentence level. We argue that identification of main ideas be done on the basis of sentences. Training in identifying the main ideas in interpreting should naturally take place first at the sentence level.1. Sentence LevelThe most important task for an interpreter to identify the main ideas at the sentence level is to discern (洞悉）the subject, verb and object (SVO). It is highly significant for the interpreter to catch the SVO of the sentence while listening to the source text, as the SVO usually carries the major information of the sentence. For example, when listening to “The best way to carry money while traveling is to have a major credit card”, the interpreter is expected to catch “The best way is to have a credit card.” If the interpreter is able to catch the SVO of the sentence, he then will produce a complete sentence with the major information in the target language.2. Discourse LevelThere are also some skills an interpreter might employ on different occasions for grasping the gist （要点）of a speech at the discourse level. In a well-organized speech, the speaker usually explains his point in the first few sentences. Therefore, one of the ways to get the main idea of a speech is to attach priority to the beginning of the speech. Secondly, if the interpreter encounters a speech that is inductively constructed, the interpreter should, to the best of their ability, conduct a study of the speaker's background and viewpoints so that they can follow the speaker's logical guidelines.II.

3. 多位数口译 有了，两位数和年份练习作为基础，同学 们就可以口译多位数了。关于多位数的口 译， 第一，请同学们要熟悉一下以下两套公式。
1）以汉语数字的关键记数点为出发点的公式： 一万＝10 thousand; 十万＝100 thousand; 百万＝1 million 千万＝10 million; 一亿＝100 million 十亿＝1 billion 百亿＝10 billion 千亿＝100 billion 万亿＝1 trillion
为了简化笔记，可以在记数时用 ’表示英 语的三位，这样 ：‘ 表示thousand, ”表示 million, ’’’表示billion, “”表示 trillion。 用/每四位划一下，表示汉语的万，亿，万 亿/兆。 如： 两百三十八万四千五百 听到英语记：2‘’384‘500然后划成目标 语汉语的：238/4500 从汉到英则反向执行上述步骤。

有关数字的各种表达及注意事项1. 整数的译法和读法迅速无误识别数字的前提是必须能够流利地读出数字。
要从读两位数起，然后练习读三位和四位数乃至五位或六位以上的数字。
其中两位和三位数的读法是读所有数字的基础。
英文数字中的每一个逗点的读法也要牢记：有一个逗点读“thousand”，两个逗点读“million”，三个逗点读“billion"。
还要清楚,每个逗点间由三位数组成。
英文数字中的第四位数、第七位数、第十位数是很关键的数位。
1,234 读作：one thousand,two hundred and thirty-four4,567,809 读作：four million，five hundred and sixty-seventhousand，eight hundred and nine 5,678,120,000 读作:five billion,six hundred and seventy-eight million，one hundred and twe nty thousand百位数和百位数以上的数的读法英国人和美国人不同，英国人在百位数和十位数之间用and，美国人常常不用。
126 读作one hundred(and)twenty—six3，862 读作three thousand, eight hundred（and）sixty-two489,932 读作four thousand(and)eight-nine thousand,nine hundred（and）thiety—two以one开始的较大数字，通俗的用法或表示大概数字时，可用不定冠词a代替one,如：He’s written a thousand poems。

“Yes, you think you can’t get around in these things, but you can.

Unit IV.数字口译汇编
• China has a huge labour force of 740 million, while the combined labour force for the developed countries of Europe and North America is just 430 million. Meanwhile, each year China sees an increase in new labour of some 10 million, and the country's laid-off and jobless people now total nearly 14 million. The size of the rural migrant workforce in cities remains steady at around 120 million, putting China under immense employment pressure. Some 900 million of China's total 1.3 billion population live in the countryside, and 30 million of them still live below the poverty line. We all know that the per capita income is only 625 yuan, very low.
