翻译资格考试catti三级笔译模拟题【英译汉】As holidays go, Thanksgiving is in some ways the most philosophical.Today we try not to take for granted the things we almost always take for granted. We try, if only in that brief pause before the eating begins, to see through the well-worn patterns of our lives to what lies behind them..In other words, we try to understand how very rich we are, whether we feel very rich or not.Today is one of the few times most Americans consciously set desire aside, if only because desire is incompatible with the gratitude--- not to mention the abundance--- that Thanksgiving summons.【参考译文】在众多节日中，感恩节是最令人深思的节日。

今天，我们会把平时习以为常的事看得很珍贵。

至少会在饭前的片刻，看透一成不变的生活，悟出背后的道理。

换句话说，无论我们觉得自己是贫是富，我们总是把自己看得很富有，今天，难得大多数美国人会有意识地把欲望放置一边，至少拥有一颗感恩的心，更不用说是一顿丰盛的晚宴了。

CATTI 三级笔译实务全真模拟题（附参考译文）Section 1: English-Chinese Translation (50 points)第一部分：英汉翻译（50分）Translate the following passage into Chinese.①In Aaron Walsh's course on Collaborative Computing at Boston College, students learn how to work in teams to program software. It's not an easy class, but Walsh sees his students only once at the start of the semester. After that, they work in a virtual 3-D world, which Walsh - a former video game programmer - helped design. Logging in via their PCs or laptops, the professor and students interact and work together as digital avatars - just like they would in programs like Second Life, using voice - over - Internet to talk or ask questions. The class is part of a fast - growing movement to apply state - of - the - art computer - game technology to U.S. college learning. Similar experiments have been conducted at Harvard, Amherst and MIT.②Long gone are the days when “online education” meant little more than digitized correspondence courses. Today it features videos and podcasts, blogs and live chats, Webcams and wikis, and online courses are becoming ever more popular. This fall, more than 4 million students in the United States will take at least one course online, says Frank Mayadas, an expert on education technology at the Sloan Foundation in New York. America's biggest online school, the University of Phoenix, has grown from 80,000 students in 2000 to 345,000 students today and is on track to reach 500,000 by 2010.③Already popular with universities, which see such programs a way to boost enrollment and revenue, and with students, who love the flexibility and the lower tuition costs, online learning has gotten another big boost from the high price of gas, Four out of five U.S. college students now commute to campus every day, and admissions officers say fuel costs have helped push up online enrollment by 100 percent at some colleges in the past year.④Many such programs are also shedding their second-class status. Elite U.S.colleges like MIT and Stanford have begun offering a growing number of degrees online, Stanford alone now boasts more than 50 different online master's programs, most of them in engineering and science, which have no physical classroom component but which Stanford claims are just as good as its on-campus offerings. A few schools, like the State University of New York and the University of Illinois, have abolished the separation of online from campus programs entirely, awarding the same degree for both. The next step: allowing students themselves to mix and match campus and online coursework at will.⑤Employers have been slow to catch on; while 83 percent of U.S. hiring managers said in a June survey that online degrees are more accepted today than five years ago, only 35 percent considered them equal to traditional degrees. Indeed, there is no good virtual replacement yet for hands -on study in subjects like physics, biology or anatomy, which require physical contact materials. Some educators are also skeptical, complaining about the for-profit nature of many online programs and the fact that they fail to replicate free-flowing conversations. “You lose something by not having human contact,” says Anita Levy of the American Association of University Professors.⑥Yet other experts argue that Web-based learning is actually closer to students’ future on-the-job realities. “Much business is now conducted online,” says Mayadas. “Education is mimicking the way we conduct business, communicate and exchange ideas today.”⑦The future of online learning, Mayadas says, lies in “blended”programs that combine faculty face time with the flexibility of online teaching. The move to such hybrids will be driven by students questioning why they should sit in lectures taking notes three times a week when they can go once and do the rest at their own pace online. Universities and colleges, for their part, like the fact that mixed programs allow them to cut down on physical classes, saving money and creating space for more students.⑧Blended programs will also go a long way toward meeting the critics who contend that digital learning will never replace the campus experience. By combiningface -to -face interaction with new online options in more powerful ways, these programs should offer the best of both worlds - rendering moot today's debate over whether virtual or in - person degrees are best.【参考译文】①艾伦·沃什在波士顿学院开设的“协同计算”课程教学生如何以团队形式编写软件这门课不简单，但沃什只在每学期开始时见学生一次，之后都在虚拟的3D 世界授课。

Then mark the corresponding letter with a single bar across the square brackets on your Machine-scoring ANSWER SHEET.Questions 51-56 are based on the following passage.As viewed from space, the Earth's distinguishing characteristics are its blue waters and white clouds. Enveloped by an ocean of air consisting of 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen, the planet is the only one in our solar system known to harbor life. Circling the Sun at an average distance of 149 million km (93 million miles), the Earth is the third planet from the Sun and the fifth largest planet in the solar system. Its rapid spin and molten nickel-iron core give rise to an extensive magnetic field which, coupled with the atmosphere, shields us from nearly all of the harmful radiation coming from the Sun and other stars. Most meteors burn up in the Earth's atmosphere before they can strike the surface. The planet's active geological processes have left no evidence of the ancient pelting it almost certainly received soon after it was formed. The Earth has a single natural satellite -- the Moon.51. Approximately how much of the Earth's atmosphere is nitrogen?A. One-fourthB. One-halfC. Three-fourthsD. All of it52. Which of the following helps to create the Earth's magnetic fields?A. Its blue watersB. Its nitrogen atmosphereC. Its molten metal coreD. The Moon53. What two factors help protect the Earth from radiation?A. Magnetic field and atmosphereB. Rapid spin and molten iron-nickel coreC. The Sun and the MoonD. Blue waters and white clouds54. Why does the Earth show almost no signs of having been hit by numerous meteors in the past?A. Humans have built over most of the craters.B. Most meteors fell into the ocean and not on land.C. The Earth's magnetic field repelled most meteors.D. The Earth's natural geologic activity has eliminated most traces.55. The main idea of this passage is thatA. there are life-supporting characteristics on the Earth.B. The Earth is predominantly water.C. The Earth has no common characteristics with other planets.D. The Earth is the only planet with a moon.56. This selection leads one to believe thatA. The Earth never gets hit by meteors.B. The Earth always gets hit by meteors.C. The Earth was hit by meteors some time in the past.D. The Earth may be bombarded by meteors in the near future.Questions 57-62 are based on the following passage.Since life began eons ago, thousands of creatures have come and gone. Some, such as the dinosaurs, became extinct due to naturally changing ecologic conditions. More recent threats to life forms are humans and their activities. Man has drained marshes, burned prairies, dammed and diverted rivers. Some of the more recent casualties of man's expansion have been the dodo, great auk, passenger pigeon, Irish elk, and Steller's sea cow. Sadly, we can no longer attribute the increasing decline in our wild animals and plant species to "natural" processes. Many species are dying out because of exploitation, habitat alteration or destruction, pollution, or the introduction of new species of plants and animals to an area. As mandated by Congress, protecting endangered species, and restoring them to the point where their existence is no longer jeopardized, is the primary objective of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Endangered Species Program.57. Which of the following is a form of man's habitat alteration?A. Glacial encroachmentB. HurricanesC. Dammed riversD. Snowstorms58. Which of the following has become extinct due to man's destruction?A.

According to this passage,A. man is the cause of some animal extinction.B. animals often bring about their own extinction.C. Congress can absolutely end extinction of animals.D. a law is more important than human responsibility.62. Which of the following is NOT a cause of increasing decline of wild animal population?A. ExploitationB. PollutionC. Habitat alterationD. Congressional lawQuestions 63-68 are based on the following passage.The "Karat" marking on jewelry tells you what proportion of gold is mixed with other metals. If 14 parts of gold are mixed with 10 parts of base metal, the combination is called 14-Karat (14K) gold. The higher the Karat rating, the higher the proportion of gold in the object. The lowest Karat gold that can be marketed in the United States is 10-Karat gold. Jewelry does not have to be marked with its Karat quality, but most of it is. If there is a Karat quality mark, next to it must be the U.S. registered trademark of the person or company that will stand behind the mark, as required by the National Gold and Silver Stamping Act.63. If a ring is stamped 24K, it hasA. 204 parts of gold.B. 24 parts of gold.C. two and four-tenths parts of gold.D. 10 parts of gold.64.

The Stamping Act isA. a regulation for tax.B. rule of law.C. a law that makes such stamping mandate.D. an implement.Questions 69-75 are based on the following passage.Mr. Faugel was convinced that student nervousness had affected their scores; to reduce the anxiety of these students who had already been tested, he gave 22 of them a beta blocker before readministration of the test. Their scores improved significantly. The other 8 students (who did not receive the beta blockers) improved only slightly. Second-time test-takers nationwide had average improvements which were similar to those in Faugel's non-beta blocker group. Beta blockers are prescription drugs which have been around for 25 years. These medications, which interfere with the effects of adrenalin, have been used for heart conditions and for minor stress such as stage fright. Now they are used for test anxiety. These drugs seem to help test-takers who have low scores because of test fright, but not those who do not know the material. Since there can be side effects from these beta blockers, physicians are not ready to prescribe them routinely for all test-takers.69. Where is the only place a person can obtain beta blockers?A. SupermarketB. Convenience storeC. Stationary storeD. Doctor's office70. Why are beta blockers not prescribed regularly?A. Students are expected to do poorly.B. There are side effects.C. The drugs are only 25 years old.D. They cause test anxiety.71. According to the passageA. all people can take beta blockers.B. beta blockers are widely prescribed.C. beta blockers work only on test anxiety.D. beta blockers work only to improve test scores if the test-taker truly knows the material.72. "Re-administration" in this passage refers toA. giving the test again to people without administering beta blockers.B. giving the test again to both groups after beta blockers have been administered to one group.C. giving the test to both groups of test-takers and then giving them beta blockers.D. giving the beta blockers without retesting.73. What possible use for beta blockers was NOT discussed in this passage?A. Test anxietyB. Pain reliefC. Minor stressD. Heart conditions74. Beta blockers work on some physical and emotional symptoms because theyA. fool a person into a healthier stance.B. interfere with the effects of adrenalin.C. produce side effects worse than the symptoms.D. primarily change human thought processes.75. Faugel's research showed that beta blockers given to his sampleA. increased scores less than the national average.B. increased scores the same as the national average.C. decreased scores.D. increased scores much more than the national average.Questions 76-80 are based on the following passage.During the past three years, the staff members of the Smithsonian Institution's Family Folklore Project have interviewed hundreds of persons about their family folklore. To prepare for these interviews we drew upon our academic backgrounds in folklore and American studies, and upon our personal backgrounds as members of families. In addition, we reviewed the major instruction guides in genealogy,oral history, family history, and folklore fieldwork. Although these publications were all helpful in some way, no single book was completely adequate since family folklore combines aspects of all the above disciplines. Over time we have developed guidelines and questions that have proven successful for us; we hope that the following suggestions will be helpful to anyone who wishes to collect the folklore of his or her own family.76. What would be the topic of the paragraph that would follow this one?A. How to gather family folkloreB. History of the Smithsonian InstitutionC. A description of genealogyD. Useful books on family folklore77. What can be inferred about the researchers who conducted the interviews?A. They were mathematicians and physicists.B. They were historians and sociologists.C. They had children.D. They wrote books.78. The purpose of this passage is toA. motivateB. berateC. instructD. cajole79. The assumption of this passage is thatA. anyone can successfully interview people about their family folklore without prior training.B. American history is inherent in the family folklore of Americans.C. American history and folklore of Americans have no connections.D. no guidelines are needed in the interviews.80. According to the passage, which kind of instructional guide was NOT consulted as a source?A. Clinical sociologyB. Genealogy guidesC. Oral historyD. Folklore fieldworkQuestions 81-86 are based on the following passage.Every summer, Jean Piaget retreats to his cabin in the Alps, where he spends most of his days analyzing the mass of research data generated over the past year at his Center for Genetic Epistemology. During long walks along the mountain trails, he mulls over the latest experimental results, and in the cool mountain evenings, he formulates his conclusions. With the approach of fall, he will descend from the mountain, manuscript for a book and several journal articles in hand. This time-honored procedure of careful observation followed by seclusion for thought and synthesis, has enabled him to become the most prolific, if not the most famous psychologist of the century.Piaget has only been widely known in this country since the 1960s, when his works were translated from their original French. But he has been recognized as an expert in the field of cognitive developmentin Europe since the 1930s. In fact, Piaget's publishing career can be traced to the year 1906, when as a child of ten, he published his careful notes on the habits of an albino sparrow he observed near his home in Switzerland. After his precocious debut as an ornithologist, he took an after-school job at the local natural history museum, soon becoming an expert on mollusks. At the age of sixteen he was recommended for a curator's position at the natural history museum in Geneva, but declined in favor of continuing his education.He studied natural science at the University of Neuchatel, obtaining his doctorate at the age of twenty-one. His readings in philosophy stimulated an intense interest in epistemology - the study of humans acquire knowledge. Convinced that cognitive development had a genetic basis, Piaget decided that the best way to approach epistemology would be through its behavioral and biological components. Psychology appeared to be the discipline that best incorporated this approach.81. According to the passage, Piaget went to the mountains every summer toA. collect data for his research.B. avoid the city heat and enjoy the cool weather.C. live in his cabin where he could analyze the data he collected there.D. analyze his research data he had collected before.82. The data Piaget was analyzing in his cabin in the Alps was mostly concerningA. his findings of the wild life in the mountains.B. his experiments on the plants and wild life in the mountains.C. his past experiments on how human beings obtain their knowledge.D. his working experience at his Center.83. Which of the following statements is true?A. When the weather became cool, he went down the mountain and started writing books and articles.B. When the weather was hot, he went up the mountain and began writing.C. When the weather was cool, he took long walks on the mountain trails.D. He liked to walk in the cool evening, thinking about his experiments.84. According to the passage, Piaget must have publishedA. several articles on his observation of sparrows.B. a few books and articles on the data he had collected.C. a variety of books and articles on his experiments.D. a great many books and articles on his observations and research.85. Piaget's main academic interest was inA. how human beings learn through observations.B. the genetic and cognitive basis for humans' cognitive development.C. analyzing research data through scientific method.D. behaviorists' views on acquiring knowledge.86. Piaget can be best regarded as a psychologist whoA. emphasizes the mental processes.B. stresses the importance of the biological basis.C. places more emphasis on the behavioral components.D. sees observations as being more important than others.Questions 87-95 are based on the following passage.My Views on GamblingMost of life is a gamble. Very many of the things we do involve taking some risk in order to achieve a satisfactory result. We undertake a new job with no idea of the more indirect consequences of our action. Marriage is certainly a gamble and so is the bringing into existence of children, who could prove sad liabilities. A journey, a business transaction, even a chance remark may result immediately or ultimately in tragedy. Perpetually we gamble - against life, destiny, chance, the unknown - call the invisible opponent what we will. Human survival and progress indicate that usually we win.So the gambling instinct must be an elemental one. Taking risks to achieve something is a characteristic of all forms of life, including humanity. As soon as man acquired property, the challenge he habitually issued to destiny found an additional expression in a human contest.

Kerry's 11-day mini-campaign on the theme of national security appears unlikely to produce sensational headlinesor seize the country's attention—which is, on balance, to his credit. At a moment when the crisis in Iraq dominates the national discussion, Mr. Kerry is resisting the temptation to distinguish himself from President Bush with bold but irresponsible proposals to abandon the mission, even though that course is favored by many in his party. Nor has he adopted the near-hysterical rhetoric of former vice presidentA1 Gore, who has taken to describing Iraq as the greatest strategic catastrophe in American history and calling US handling of foreign detainees an "American gulag. "Instead, Mr. Kerry is in the process of setting out what looks like a sober and substantial altemative to Mr. Bush's foreign policy, one that correctly identifies the incumbent's greatest failings while accepting the basic imperatives of the war that was forced on the country on Sept. 11, 2001. In his opening speech on the subject Thursday, Mr. Kerry reiterated one of the central tenets of Mr.Bush's policy: Lawless states and terrorists armed with weapons of mass destruction present "the single greatest threat to our security. " He said that if an attack on the United States with unconventional weapons "appears imminent I will do whatever is necessary to stop it" and "never cede our security to anyone"—formulations that take him close to Mr. Bush's preemption doctrine.Yet Mr. Kerry focused much attention on the president'sforemost weakness, his mismanagement of US alliances. The Bush administration, he charged, "bullied when they should have persuadeD． They have gone it alone when they should have assembled a team. " Not only is the truth of that critique glaringly evident in Iraq and elsewhere, but Mr. Kerry is also right to suggest that repairing and reversing the damage probed will require a new president. Though Mr. Bush has belatedly changed course in responseto his serial failures in Iraq, there is no evidence that he would pursue a more multilateral foreign policy if reelected．Mr. Kerry's promise to "launch and lead a new era of alliances for the post 9/11 world" nevertheless does not add up to a strategyby itself. Tensions between the United States and countries such as France, Germany and South Korea predate George W. Bush and will not disappear if he leaves office; leaders in those nations have theirown ambitions to challenge or contain American power. Strongalliances require a common strategic vision—and the vision offeredso far by Mr. Kerry is relatively narrow. His Thursday speech focused on combating threats and on reducing dependence on Middle East oil; this week he will set out policies to block the spread of nuclear weapons. But he has had little to say about the good that the United States should seek to accomplish in the worlD． In an interview Friday, the candidate stressed that he has set out the "architecture" of his foreign policy and will talk more about goals and values in coming weeks. Thus far he has spoken more about protecting American companies and workers from foreign competition—something that hardly promotes alliances—than about fostering democracy in the Middle East or helping poor nations develop.The emerging Kerry platform suggests that ultimately he would adopt many of the same goals as Mr. Bush. In his latest speech he rightly warned of the terrible consequences of failure in Iraq and,like Mr. Bush, embraced elections and the training of Iraqi security forces as the best way forwarD． His proposal for a U. N. high commissioner represents a slight upgrade on the deference alreadygiven by the White House to U. N. representative Lakhdar Brahimi; his call for a NATO- led military mission already has been aggressively pursued by the Bush administration, with poor results. There are, in fact, few responsible alternatives to the administration's course. Mr. Kerry's argument is that he has a better chance of making it work.It's not a bold offer to voters—but it's probably the fight one.1. The fact that Mr. Kerry did not propose to abandon the Iraq mission might______.A.leave him in a disadvantaged position in the campaignB.result in a draw against President Bush in the campaignC.do him good instead of harm in the campaignD.bring about a general disappointment among the public正确答案：C2. The second paragraph suggests that______.A.Mr. Kerry and Mr. Bush both support the war on terrorismB.Mr. Kerry and Mr. Bush have very different views on nationalsecurity issuesC.Mr. Kerry prefers a more sober and substantial foreign policy thanMr. BushD.Mr. Kerry has nothing new to offer in his opening speech正确答案：A3. Mr. Kerry's attack against the president focused on______.A.the latter's use of force against IraqB.the difficulty in reassembling US alliancesC.the need of a new president in directing the Iraq missionD.the latter's practice of unilateralism正确答案：D4. In the author's view, the "good that the US should seek to accomplish in the world" might be______.A.creating a strong alliance with France, Germany and South Koreabating threats and reducing dependence on Middle East oilC.fostering democracy in the Middle East or helping poor nations developD.protecting American companies and workers from foreign competition正确答案：C5. The author seems to suggest that______.A.only when Mr. Kerry is in power can we judge whether he is right in his policiesB.Mr. Kerry has not made powerful proposals in favor of his election campaign against Mr. BushC.Mr. Kerry always follows Mr. Bush in his foreign policy guidelinesD.Mr. Bush is still leading in the campaign正确答案：BThe term control is highly—and unjustifiably—unpopular. Some of its unpopularity can be traced to educational and philosophical writings that have addressed issues of freedom, self- determination, self-worth, individuality, and other humanistic concerns—concerns often equated with liberal and permissive child-rearing and educational methods. They are the concerns that define the spirit of these times. No teacher wants to be nonliberal and restrictive. And there is little doubt that the deliberate exercise of control is restrictive. Is control therefore unethical?There is, of course, no simple answer, ff there were, there would be little controversy, and behaviorists and humanists wouldhave much less to disagree about.Consider, first, that control is not only inevitable but also necessary. There is no doubt that teachers, by virtue of theirposition and by virtue of their duties, have control. Indeed, it isnot at all unreasonable to insist that the exercise of control is one of the teacher's most important duties. We are not speaking here of a fear-enforced control that might have been characteristic of some of yesterday's schools. Control can be achieved, or at least facilitated, in a variety of gentle ways, some of which can be learned． Parents too control their children (or at least try), often by setting limits for their behavior. Part of the successfulsocialization process requires that children be prevented from engaging in behaviors that might be injurious to themselves or to others. Thus, parents do not permit their children to play with the dinner as it is cooking on the stove, to insert knives intoelectrical outlets, to jump off ladders, or to swim in dangerous waters. Less extreme instances of control involve the teaching of socially appropriate behavior, of values and morals—of "shoulds" and "should nots". It is less by accident than by virtue of parental control that children learn not to deface wall, steal other people's property, or kill the neighbor's god． In short, certain standards of behavior are learned at least partly as a function of parental control. Whether that control involves reinforcement, punishment, models, reasoning, or a combination of these and other strategies, we cannot avoid the fact that control is being exercised．The classroom situation is not really very different. Teachers have often been described as acting [in loco parentis]—in the placeof parents. More precisely, teachers have been urged to act in all ways as might a wise, judicious, and loving parent. And there is, in fact, no great incompatibility between values held in highest esteem by those who describe themselves as humanistically oriented and the techniques of behavior control that have been described by science. Love, empathy, warmth, genuineness, and honesty can go a long way toward ensuring a classroom climate corducive to and learning and development. In spite of these highly desirable qualities, however, discipline problems are not uncommon in classrooms. That teachersshould judiciously administer rewards and punishment in an effort to maintain an effective educational environment does not mean that they care less for their students; indeed, in might well indicate that they care more.6. The passage indicates that the current educational spirit is characterized by______.A.unjustified controlB.unpopularityC.liberal and permissive educational methodsD.deliberate exercise of restrictions正确答案：C7. Which of the following might behaviorists agree with?A.Students should not be granted too much freedom.cational environments should ensure that students' individuality is fully promoteD．C.Teachers are not to control, but to practice their duties.D.Parents are not humanistic enough towards their children's education.正确答案：A8. Instances of parental control provided in the passage are aimed at______.A.justifying the educational use of controlrming educationalists of what is the fight thing to do in the education of childrenC.persuading the public of the importance of ethics educationD.assessing whether parents or teachers are more important in the education of children正确答案：A9. It is indicated in the passage that______.A.teachers have not been acting in the same ways as loving parentsB.scientific use of control is of no big contradiction to humanistically oriented approaches in children's educationC.discipline problems cannot be solved in humanistic waysD.punishment administered by the teacher is indicative of care for the children正确答案：B10. Which of the following can be an appropriate title for the passage?A.Control or Liberty?B.Teacher's Control or Parent's Restriction?C.The Ethics of ControlD.How to Use Control Scientifically?正确答案：CDavis, California, like many other American cities, has been threatened by unchecked growth, swarming automobiles, and steeply rising energy costs. But unlike towns and cities which leave energy policy to the federal government or energy corporations, the citizens of Davis have acted on their own.After lengthy debate, Davis' City Council moved to curb growth. It turned against the automobile and embraced the bicycle as a means of transport. It sponsored an inquiry into energy uses and endorsed a series of measures aimed at reducing energy consumption by as much as one half. It cut back the use of petroleum-derived pesticides on the thousands of trees and shrubs that shade the city's streets, adopting instead a policy of biological control for insects. The city's own cars and trucks have been transformed into a fleet of compact vehicles. When a Davis employee has to get around town, he borrows a bike from the city rack. Davis even passed a law formally and solemnly sanctioning the clothesline.The citizens of Davis have been involved in progressive city planning and energy conservation since 1968, when they persuaded the City Council to facilitate bicycle transportation by developing a system of bikeways. The City's general plan for development, drawn up in 1972, was based on questionnaires distributed to residents. When a survey of residents showed that automobiles represented 50 percent of energy consumption and space heating and cooling accounted for 25 percent, transportation and building construction became important focal points in the Davis plan.Armed with survey information revealing that a building's east-west orientation on the lot, as well as its insulation, window area, roof and wall colors, overhang shading, and other factors greatlyinfluenced space heating and cooling needs, the City Council drew up a building construction code which greatly reduced the cost of winter heating and eliminates the need for air conditioning even on Davis' hottest (114°) day. To demonstrate to local builders and developers methods for complying with the new code, Davis built two model solar homes, a single-family dwelling which takes advantage of natural southern exposure sunlight and a duplex adaptable to difficult siting situationswhere direct sunlight is blocked．Many of Davis'measures simply facilitate natural solar heating or sun-shading. Where most communities require that fences be built close to houses, Davis realized that practice meant blocking winter sunlight. New fences in Davis must be placed closer to the street, giving residents the benefit of natural solar heat in winter. Reducing required street widths provides more shade and saves asphalt to boot.Davis' other energy conserving moves run the gamut—from a city ordinance encouraging cottage industry (to cut down on commuting and the need for new office building construction) to planting evergreens on city streets to reduce leaf pickup in the fall, from a ban on non-solar swimming pool heaters to a recycling center that supportsitself by selling $3,000 worth of recyclables a month.11. It can be inferred from the passage that Davis' City Council felt that______.A.bicycles are healthful because they promote physical fitnessB.control of automobile traffic is an essential part of energy managementC.Davis citizens are always ready to do the most modem, up-to-date thingD.survey results should always determine legislative actions正确答案：B12. Why did Davis build model solar homes instead of just one?A.To show what they could do when they put their minds to it.B.To show that even the hottest days could be mastered without air conditioning.C.To demonstrate that even multiple dwelling in difficult locations could be solar powered．D.To indicate that other cities were inadequate to the job．正确答案：C13. The purpose of this article is probably to______.A.congratulate Davis on their fine workB.help Davis spread their messageC.chide the federal government for not doing enough to help cities like DavisD.hold up Davis as an example to other cities正确答案：D14. It appears that Davis is______.A.a "good old American town"mitted to social justiceC.a medium-to-small-size cityD.blessed by a strong radical element in the population正确答案：CThe income-tax deadline approaches and some taxpayers' thoughts turn to it. Test time approaches and some students' thoughts turn to it. Temptation appears and some spouses consider it. Nowadays, cheating is on the rise. "You want something you can't get by behaving within the rules, and you want it badly enough, you'll do it regardless of any guilt or regret, and you're willing to run the risk of being caught. " That's how Ladd Wheeler, psychology professor at the University of Rochester in New York, defines cheating.Cheating represents the triumph of the "Brazen Rule" over the "Golden Rule", says Terry Pinkard, philosophy professor at Georgetown University in Washington D．C． "The Golden Rule says, Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.'The Brazen Rule says, Do unto others as they would do unto you if they were in your place. ' " Many experts believe cheating is on the rise. "We're seeing more of the kind of person who regards the world as a series of things to be manipulated． Whether to cheat depends on whether it's in theperson's interest. " He does, however, see less cheating among the youngest students.Richard Dienslbier, psychology professor at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln, believes that society's attitudes account for much of the rise in cheating. "Twenty years ago, if a person cheated in college, society said:'That is extremely serious; you will bedropped for a semester if not kicked out permanently, ' " he says. "Nowadays, at the University of Nebraska, for example, it is thestated policy of the College of Arts and Sciences that if a student cheats on an exam, the student must receive an'F' on what he cheated on. That's nothing. If you're going to fail anyway, why not cheat?"Cheating is unethical, Pinkard says, whether it's massive fraud or failure to tell a store cashier you were undercharged． "You're treating other people merely as a means for your own ends. You'reusing people in ways they would not consent to. The cheater says, 'Let everybody else bear the burden, and I'll reap the benefits. '"Cheaters usually try to justify their actions, says Rohert Hogan, chairman of the psychology department at the University of Tulsa in Oklahoma． "They never think it's their fault. " Cheaters make justifications because they want to feel good about themselves, adds Wheeler. "They don't want to label themselves as a cheater. Also, they may be anticipating the possibility of getting caught, so they work on their excuse ahead of time. " The most common justifications, psychologists say, include:"I had to do it. ""The test was unfair. ""Everybody does it, and I have to cheat to get what'srightfully mine. ""The government wastes the money anyway. ""My wife (or husband) doesn't understand me, and we've grown apart. "Cheating is most likely in situation where the stakes are high and the chances of getting caught are low, says social psychologist Lynn Kahle of the University of Oregon in Eugene. In his study, a group of freshmen were allowed to grade their own tests, while secret, pressure sensitive paper indicated who changed answers. To raise the pressure, students were given an extremely high scores as the "average" for the test and told that those who failed would go before an inquiring board of psychologists.

当（江南博哥）然，这取决于我们自己要寻求机会来满足并利用激励因素。

当一项工作再也不能激励我们进步时，也就是该挪窝跳槽之日了。

所以，如果你处于少数，则应该细想一下它会怎样影响你事业上的发展机会。

不要怨恨和觉得痛苦，但一定不要让自己闲着。

这也许是应该辞职去寻找更好的工作的时候了。

正确答案：I believe the key to personal effectiveness at work (and to job satisfaction, also) is knowing what motivates us to perform at our best. It's then up to us to seek opportunities to fulfill these motivations. When a job no longer motivates us, it's time to move on. Jobs have lifecycles, so take stock of where you are and decide if that's where you want to be.Also, prejudice and chauvinism still exist in the workplace. While we like to think women managers have achieved parity with men, this isn't true. The glass (some say concrete) ceiling still exists in many places. So, if you're a minority, consider how this is affecting your advancement chances. Don't be bitter, but do get busy. It may be time to get out and find something better.2. 任何怀疑孩子天生具有益于健康的雄心的人只需要花费几分钟时间和一个婴儿呆在一起就了解到迫切学习走路或一个顽皮的开始学走路的孩子学说话。

As an example he shows me an astrolabe, a navigation tool that preceded the sextant. Few have survived. "We have three of the oldest known," he says. He directs me to a paper on astrolabes written by a Cuban colleague, who quoted a 16th-century instruction: "He who wants to take the sun with an astrolabe at sea, must be seated near the main mast, the place where the boat oscillates the least and is quiet."I want to take the measure of Cubas past, so I tell the archaeologist I would like to go to the place where the plain things are. I am here not only to see treasures that glitter but also to see and touch objects that illumine moments of the past. Smiling, he takes me into storage rooms where he and other archaeologists preserve cargoes from four centuries of wrecks. Jumbled on these shelves is the stuff of Cubas long reign as counting house and command center for Spains New World colonies.I see knickknacks destined for one of the annual 18th-century trade fairs, where Cubans bought imports from Spain. I also see, pallid from centuries in the sea, dozens of little painted ceramic dogs, lions, cats, and deer later shipped from England. Stacked nearby are sets of dinner dishes, tankards, an hourglass, a bottle of very Old Spanish wine.On another day, in fading light, I walk the ramparts of El Morro, its lighthouse standing tall over Havanas harbor. The old fortress, by day a warren of tourist stops, changes by night, looming deeper into the shadows of Havanas past. As torches light the darkness, I watch Cuban soldiers, costumed as 18th-century Spanish sentries, march along the ramparts of the Castillo de San Carlos and fire a cannon that salutesthe end of day. In Spanish times the cannon signaled the closing of the city gates and the drawing of a great chain across the harbor. Now the nightly ritual keeps open the sea-lane of memory between colonial past and present nationhood.Near the waterfront of Old Havana stands the Palace of the Captains General. Once the headquarters of the Spanish bureaucracy that governed Cuba, the palace now is the Museum of the city. Light and shadow play along its walls of coral limestone. Royal palms rustle in its lust courtyard. Up a stone stairway a gallery leads to the spacious office of Eusebio Leal Spengler, historian of the city of Havana and preserver of its past. A slight, precise man in a well-tailored dark suit, he is the obvious ruler of the palace.We had hardly shaken hands before he began rapidly talking about Havana, a city he sees simultaneously in past and present. The jewels I had viewed in the vault were about to become part of the treasure he guards for Cuba. He has 0selected an old fort to be their new home. "This," he said with a sweep of his hand, "is the city that changed history. Because of a decision by PhilipⅡ all ships had to gather here to carry treasure back to Spain. And what treasure! Silk and aromatic wood from China, emeralds, silver."Part 2 Chinese-English Translation (汉译英)Translate the following passage into English and write your translation on the ANSWER SHEET (40 points, 80 minutes).。

翻译三级笔译实务分类模拟题86Section Ⅰ English Chinese TranslationIn man's early days, competition with other creatur（江南博哥）es must have been critical. But this phase of our development is now finished. Indeed, we lack practice and experience nowadays in dealing with primitive conditions. 1 I am sure that, without modern weapons, I would make a very poor show of disputing the ownership of a cave with a bear, and in this I do not think that I stand alone. The last creature to compete with man was the mosquito. But even the mosquito has been subdued by attention to drainage and by chemical sprays.2 Competition between ourselves, person against person, community against community, still persists, however; and it is as fierce as it ever was.But the competition of man against man is not the simple process envisioned in biology. 3 It is not a simple competition for a fixed amount of food determined by the physical environment, because the environment that determines our evolution is no longer essentially physical. Our environment is chiefly conditioned by the things we believe. Morocco and California are bits of the Earth in very similar latitudes, both on the west coasts of continents with similar climates, and probably with rather similar natural resources. 4 Yet their present development is wholly different, not so much because of different people even, but because of the different thoughts that exist in the minds of their inhabitants. This is the point I wish to emphasize. The most important factor in our environment is the state of our own minds.5 It is well known that where the white man has invaded a primitive culture the most destructive effects have come not from physical weapons but from ideas. Ideas are dangerous. The Holy Office knew this full well when it caused heretics to be burned in days gone by. Indeed, the concept of free speech only exists in our modem society because when you are inside a community you are conditioned by the conventions of the community to such a degree that it is very difficult to conceive of anything really destructive.1.正确答案：我可以肯定，要是我不用现代武器而去和一头熊争夺一座山洞的所有权，我会窘态毕露的，而且我相信，会出洋相的绝非我一人。

翻译三级笔译实务分类模拟题1

翻译三级笔译实务分类模拟题1English Chinese TranslationSome recent historians have argued that life in the British co（江南博哥）lonies in America from approximately 1763 to 1789 was marked by internal conflicts among colonists. Inheriting some of the viewpoints of early twentieth-century progressive historians such as Beard and Becker, these recent historians have put forward arguments that deserve evaluation.The kind of conflict most emphasized by these historians isclass conflict. Yet with the Revolutionary War dominating these years, how does one distinguish class conflict within that larger conflict? Certainly not by the side a person supported. 1 Although many of these historians have accepted the earlier assumption that Loyalists represented an upper class, new evidence indicates that Loyalists, like rebels, were drawn from all socioeconomic classes.(It is nonetheless probably true that a larger percentage of thewell-to-do joined the Loyalists than joined the rebels.) Looking atthe rebel side, we find little evidence for the contention thatlower-class rebels were in conflict with upper-class rebels. Indeed, the war effort against Britain tended to suppress classconflicts. 2 Where it did not, the disputing rebels of one or another class usually Loyalists. Loyalism thus operated as asafety valve to remove socioeconomic discontent that existed amongthe rebels. Disputes occurred, of course, among those who remained on the rebel side, but the extraordinary social mobility of eighteenth-century American society (with the obvious exception of slaves)usually prevented such disputes from hardening along class lines. Social structure was in fact so fluid—though recent statistics suggest a narrowing of economic opportunity as the latter half of the century progressed—that to talk about social classes at all requires the use of loose economic categories such as rich, poor, and middle class, or eighteenth-century designations like "the bettersort". 3 Despite these vague categories, one should not claim unequivocally that hostility between recognizable classescannot be legitimately observed. Outside of New York, however, there were very few instances of openly expressed class antagonism.Having said this, one must add that there is much evidence to support the further claim of recent historians that sectionalconflicts were common between 1763 and 1789. The "Paxton Boys" incident and the Regulator movement are representative examples of the widespread, and Justified, discontent of western settlers against colonial or state governments dominated by easterninterest. 4 Although undertones of class conflict existed beneath such hostility, the opposition was primarily geographical. Sectional conflict which also existed between North and South deserves further investigation.In summary, historians must be careful about the kind of conflict they emphasize in eighteenth-centuryAmerica. 5 Yet those who stress the achievement of a general consensus among the colonists cannot fully understand that consensus without understanding the conflicts that had to be overcome or repressed in order to reach it.1.正确答案：虽然这些历史学家中的很多人也接受先前的这种假设，即亲英分子代表上层阶级，但新的证据表明，亲英分子同反叛分子一样，都来自于所有的社会经济阶层。

翻译三级笔译实务分类模拟题56英译汉1.A Threat to the Starbucks BrandStarbucks founder and Chairman1 Howard Schul（江南博哥）tz has a challenge for his ever-expanding coffee empire. Schultz sees a threat to his brand, a problem that could impact on everything that has made Starbucks the great American success and growth story it is2, and tonight we are taking an in-depth look at this amazing turn of events.The letter by Schultz came in the form of a memo to Starbucks gossip blogger Jim Romenesko's email box on Wednesday. That's a week after Schultz wrote notes to top executives. Romenesko said he readit yesterday, believed the note was real3 and posted it on his website. The Wall Street Journal confirmed this afternoon that it was in fact genuine.In the memo, Schultz says he worries about what he calls the commoditization of the brand as a result of the company's massive expansion over the past decade, as well as the decisions company officials have made that have watered down the ideal coffee experience. Many of these decisions were probably fight at the time, Schultz writes, and on their own merit would not have created4 the dilution of the Starbuck's coffee experience, but in this case, the sum is much greater and unfortunately much more damaging than the individual pieces. Schultz was more specifically pointing out the effect of rapid growth on store architecture and ambiance.One of the results has been stores that no longer have the soul of the past and reflect a chain of stores vs. the warm feeling of an independent neighborhood store. All these, Schultz concludes, could lead to loss of market share for the world's largest multinational chain of coffee stores. While the current state of affairs is for the most part self-induced, it has led to competitors of all kinds, small and large coffee companies, fast food operators and morn-and-popstores to position themselves in a way that creates awareness, trial and a test of loyalty of those people who previously have been Starbucks' customers. This must be stopped.5Despite the release of the memo, the stock hardly moved on the day. The story was broadcast at 1:23 pm eastern time, shares dropping a mere 17 cents from that point, closing at $ 32.75. Perhaps that wasan admission of the fact that most of what Schultz was saying was already obvious. Many customers we talked to today already knew this.It has lost a little of its romance.6It's not the way it was in the beginning.It's not an experience at all; it's like McDonald's.Some close watchers of the Starbucks brand think the memo's reaching the public is a good thing for investors and customers.Now there is a debate as to whether Starbucks wanted to leak this memo. Some people believe that the release of the memo makes Starbucks look more human and original; still there are others that say that the memo would have been more convincing if it were meant to be released.正确答案：星巴克品牌遭遇威胁星巴克创始人、总裁1霍华德·舒尔兹日益扩张的咖啡帝国正受到挑战。

CATTI英语笔译实务3级模拟【英译汉汉译英】讲解

全国翻译专业资格（水平）考试英语三级《笔译实务》试卷 Section 1: English-Chinese Translation (50 points Translate the following passage into Chinese. Freed by warming, waters once locked beneath ice are gnawing at coastal settlements around the Arctic Circle. In Bykovsky, a village of 457 residents at the tip of a fin-shaped peninsula on Russia’s northeast coast, the shoreline is collapsing, creeping closer and closer to houses and tanks of heating oil, at a rate of 15 to 18 feet, or 5 to 6 meters, a year. Eventually, homes will be lost as more ice melts each summer, and maybe all of Bykovsky, too. “It is practically all ice — permafrost —and it is thawing.” The 4 million Russian people who live north of the Arctic Circle are feeling the effects of warming in many ways. A changing climate presents new opportunities, but it also threatens their environment, the stability of their homes, and, for those whose traditions rely on the ice-bound wilderness, the preservation of their culture. A push to develop the North, quickened by the melting of the Arctic seas, carries its own rewards and dangers for people in the region. Discovery of vast petroleum fields in the Barents and Kara Seas has raised fears of catastrophic accidents as ships loaded with oil or liquefied gas churn through the fisheries off Scandinavia, headed for the eager markets of Europe and North America. Land that was untouched could be tainted by air and water pollution as generators, smokestacks and large vehicles sprout to support the growing energy industry. Coastal erosion is a problem in Alaska as well, forcing the United States to prepare to relocate several Inuit coastal villages at a projected cost of US$100 million or more for each one. Across the Arctic, indigenous tribes with cultural traditions shaped by centuries of living in extremes of cold and ice are noticing changes in weather and wildlife. They are trying to adapt, but it can be confounding. In Finnmark, the northernmost province of Norway, the Arctic landscape unfolds in late winter as an endless snowy plateau, silent but for the cries of the reindeer and the occasional whine of a snowmobile herding them.A changing Arctic is felt there, too, though in another way. “The reindeer are becoming unhappy,” said Issat Eira, a 31-year-old reindeer herder. Few countries rival Norway when it comes to protecting the environment and preserving indigenous customs. Thestate has lavished its oil wealth on the region, and as a result Sami culture has enjoyed something of a renaissance. And yet no amount of government support can convince Eira that his livelihood, intractably entwined with the reindeer, is not about to change. Like a Texas cattleman he keeps the size of his herd secret. But he said warmer temperatures in fall and spring are melting the top layers of snow, which then refreeze as ice, making it harder for his reindeer to dig through to the lichen they eat. “The people who are making the decisions, they are living in the south and they are living in towns,” said Eira, sitting beside a birch fire inside his la vvu, a home made of reindeer hides. “They don’t mark the change of weather. It is only people who live in nature and get resources from nature who mark it.” Section 2: Chinese-English Translation (50 points Translate the following passage into English. 中国为种类繁多的菜肴感到十分自豪。
