2015年6月英语四级翻译参考译文及预测题

一、翻译原文：

越来越多来自北京、上海、广州、沈阳和其他一些大城市的大学生选择毕业后就结婚。这与20世纪80年代和90年代的情况形成了鲜明的对比，那时候很多城市的年轻人都推迟结婚，直到他们的年龄“足够大”—在30多岁甚至40多岁的时候。许多人花时间寻找有着良好的经济背景或好看的相貌的配偶，而不是寻找爱情。然而，这些选择毕业后就结婚的学生的父母必须照顾这些小夫妻的日常起居，因为这些年轻人仍然在探索如何作为一家人来生活。

参考译文：

University students in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenyang and some other big cities are increasingly choosing to get married right after graduating. This is in sharp contrast to the situation in the 1980s and 1990swhen many urban youngsters put off marriage until they were “old enough”一in their 30s or even 40s.Many spent their time looking for spouses with good economic backgrounds or attractive faces, instead of looking for love. However, parents of these students choosing to get married right after graduating hav e to take care of the couples …daily affairs, as the young people are still figuring out how to live as a family.

二、翻译原文：

大多数时候，留守儿童(leftover children)的问题很大程度上源于缺乏父母的情感关怀。通常，孩子由祖父母或父母的朋友、亲戚照顾。在大多数情况下，他们的监护人(guardian)没有受过很好的教育。对他们来说，确保孩子健康、吃得好是极重要的任务。只要孩子平安无事，他们就被认为做得很好了。监护人很少关心孩子的学习、心理需求或精神需求。他们也不花时间教孩子如何养成良好的习惯。

参考译文：

Most of the time, problems of the leftover children largely arise from a lack of emotional care from their parents. Usually, the children's grandparents or their parent's friends or relatives look after these children. In most cases, their guardians are not well educated. To them，making sure that the children are healthy and fed well is the most important task. As long as the children are safe and sound，they are considered to have done a good job. Guardians seldom care about children's study，psychological needs, or mental demands. Neither do they spend some time to teach kids how to develop good habits.

三、翻译原文：

家庭暴力(domestic violence)指的是在亲密关系(intimate reiationship)中一方对另一方的虐待。通常来说，受害者是儿童和妇女。在中国古代，人们认为男人有权利惩罚他的孩子和妻子。广义上讲，家庭暴力不局限于明显的身体暴力，它也有许多其他的形式。关于家庭暴力产生的原因，出现了许多不同的理论，比如犯罪者的性格和心理特征。外部因素也有影响，比如犯罪者所处的环境。然而，没有一种理论能涵盖所有情况。

参考译文：

Domestic violence refers to the abuse by one partner against another in an intimate relationship. Commonly the victims are children and women. In ancient China, people believe that a man has the right to punish his children and wife. In a broad sense, domestic violence is not limited to obvious physical violence. There are many other forms of violence. Many different theories are brought up as to the causes of domestic violence, such as the perpetrators‟ personality and mental characteristics. External factors also play a part, such as the perpetrators‟ surroundings.

However, no theory seems to cover all cases.

四、翻译原文：

三手烟是指在吸烟几小时或几天之后仍然残留在地毯、衣物以及其他物品中的烟污染。据研究，许多人，尤其是烟民，都不知道三手烟会危害人们的健康。在接受调查的1500名烟民和非烟民中，绝大部分人都认同二手烟的危害。但当他们被问到是否知晓“吸入前一天有人吸烟的屋子里的空气会危害你的健康”时,只有65%的非烟民和43%的烟民回答是肯定的。

But when asked whether they agreed with the statement, “Breathing air in a room where people smoked yesterday can harm your health, “only 65% of nonsmokers and 43% of smokers gave the affirmative answer.

五、翻译原文：

当今世界，国家之间的竞争主要是专业人才之间的竞争。因此，为了加强我们在世界上的竞争能力，党中央(the CPCCentral Committee)决定充分引进和利用我们的海外留学人才，以及香港、澳门、台湾的专业人才。引进这些人才的部门有银行、保险等行业，以及大型国有企业，因为这些部门对外界开放程度更大，并处于越来越激烈的竞争环境中。
