2022年下半年英语三级笔译（CATTI 3) 实务考试真题及参考译文Section 1: English-Chinese Translation (50 points)Translate the following passage into Chinese.In times of stress, like living through a global pandemic, it' s natural to fall back on soothing habits---gardening, playing video games or lighting up a cigarette.But what are the risks, given that the novel coronavirus at the center of the current crisis attacks the lungs? The science is in its early stages, but studies are finding that cigarette smokers are more likely to have severe infections. There is data to show that if you are a smoker, you're more likely to have adverse outcomes from COVID-19, need mechanical ventilation and die than if you' re not a smoker. Smoking damages the lungs' defense mechanisms, making it harder to fight off COVID-19 and other respiratory diseases.What does science say? Early data was conflicting. Some reports indicated that smoking was not associated with increased adverse outcomes and that smokers were underrepresented in hospital settings, leading some to claim that smokers might even have immunity to the virus. But specialists dismissed the claims as "really fringe stuff". One study found that of those who died of COVID-19, 9 percent were current smokers, compared with 4 percent of those that survived. Smoking, for one thing, inhibits blood cells that would otherwise clean and repair damaged lungs.What about e-cigarettes? Less is known about how coronavirus patients who use e-cigarettes products are faring, but several doctors suspect their trajectory will mirror that of cigarette smokers. Smoking e-cigarettes has all the same adverse effects as smoking ordinary cigarettes does. Smoking anything can irritate the lining of your lungs. If you irritate the lining of your lungs, you set yourself up for trouble, because the disease kills people by attacking the lungs.What about secondhand smoke? Smokers do not expel more of a respiratory virus than non-smokers, although they do cough more. The smoke itself doesn' t seem to increase the amount of virus that gets in the air. However, to the extent that the virus is carried in tiny aerosol particles that stay in the air, one of the possible meansof transmission, the smoke shows where those particles are located. One study showed that people who had been exposed to second hand smoke were more likely to contract tuberculosis and, once they got it, didn' t do as well as those who weren' t exposed to smoke. In terms of these immune-suppressive effects, as it relates to tuberculosis, secondhand smoke has adverse effects.Each virus has its unique pattern of dispersion, and scientists are starting to get a handle on how the novel coronavirus behaves. This understanding is making it possible to rank the risks of different activities from high to low to trivial.The two drivers of the spread of the disease are close contact and crowding in closed spaces, as the virus is mainly transmitted through respiratory droplets and close contact. It spreads through homeless shelter and nursing homes, where people are crowded in with many others. And it spreads through people's households. Scientists have found some trends. For example, spending time dining together or being on public transport might increase the risk of spreading or contracting the disease, while going to a market briefly for five minutes or a transient encounter while you walk or run past someone is considered low risk.The studies were all done through contact tracing, which may turn out to be humanity's greatest strategy for fighting the COVID-19 pandemic. Contact tracing can stop chains of transmission, even after a disease is widespread. Another major benefit is that it offers clues as to how the disease spreads. Each virus has its unique pattern.【参考译文】：适逢直面重重压力之际,恰似人类正身陷于这一场席卷全球的新冠肺炎疫情之图圄。

英语(yīnɡ yǔ)笔译实务 3级配套训练第五单元(dānyuán)英译汉（一）A New NationAt the beginning of the 20th century, Australia was an open and democratic “new world” society. In the absence of a strongly defined aristocracy or ruling class, there was a sense that one person was as good as another. It was commonly held that people made what they could of themselves, given their abilities.The Commonwealth of Australia was formed in 1901 through the proclamation of the Constitution for the Federation of six rates. The founders of Federation believed that they were creating something new and were concerned to avoid the pitfalls of the old world. They wanted Austrilia to be harmonious, united and egalitarian. They had progressive ideas about human rights, observance of democratic procedures and the value of a secret ballot.They drew the line on matters of race, however; one of the first acts of the new Commonwealth Parliaments was to pass the Immigration Restriction Act 1901, which ensured that immigrants would be of primarily European origin. (The ‘White Australia’ policy was gradually dismantled after World War II until by the mid-1970s it was totally abolished. Australia now has anon-discriminatory migration policy.) Numerous diverse links with Britain existed, which many pe ople continued to regard as “the mother country”. Australia’s constitutional links with Britain have been progressively loosened since that time.The great champion of Federation was Sir Henry Parkes, who believed that Australia was ready for unity because of “the vigor, the industry, the enterprise, the foresight, and the creative skill of its people”.课文(kèwén)词汇(cíhuì)aristocracy 星巴克咖啡店commonwealth 联邦proclamation 宣布constitution 宪法harmonious 和谐的egalitarian 平等主义的ballot 投票dismantle 废除champion 倡导人参考(cānkǎo)译文(yìwén)新国家的诞生(dànshēng)20世纪(shìjì)初，澳大利亚社会(shèhuì)是一个(yī ɡè)开放民主的“新世界”。
Catti三级笔译（英译汉）
A Part of Utah Built on Coal Wonders What Comes NextPRICE, Utah —For generations, coal has been the lifeblood of this mineral-rich stretch of eastern Utah. Mining families proudly recall all the years they toiled underground. Supply companies line the town streets. Above the road that winds toward the mines, a soot-smudged miner peers out from a billboard with the slogan “Coal = Jobs.”But recently, fear has settled in. The state’s oldest coal-fired power plant, tucked among the canyons near town, is set to close, a result of new, stricter federal pollution regulations.As energy companies tack away from coal, toward cleaner, cheaper natural gas, people here have grown increasingly afraid that their community may soon slip away. Dozens of workers at the facility here, the Carbon Power Plant, have learned that they must retire early or seek other jobs. Local trucking and equipment outfits are preparing to take business elsewhere.“There are a lot of people worried,” said Kyle Davis, who has been employed at the plant since he was 18.Mr. Davis, 56, worked his way up from sweeping floors to managing operations at the plant, whose furnaces have been burning since 1954.“I would have liked to be here for another five years,” he said. “I’m too young to retire.”But Rocky Mountain Power, the utility that operates the plant, has determined that it would be too expensive to retrofit the aging plant to meet new federal standards on mercury emissions. The plant is scheduled to be shut by April 2015.“We had been working for the better part of three years, testing compliance strategies,” said David Eskelsen, a spokesman for the utility. “None of the ones we investigated really would produce the results that would meet the requirements.”For the last several years, coal plants have been shutting down across the country, driven by tougher environmental regulations, flattening electricity demand and a move by utilities toward natural gas.This month, the board of directors of the Tennessee Valley Authority, the country’s largest public power utility, voted to shut eight coal-powered plants in Alabama and Kentucky and partly replace them with gas-fired power. Since 2010, more than 150 coal plants have been closed or scheduled for retirement.The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that the stricter emissions regulations for the plants will result in billions of dollars in related health savings, and will have a sweeping impact on air quality.In recent weeks, the agency held 11 “listening sessions” around the country in advance of proposing additional rules for carbon dioxide emissions.“Co al plants are the single largest source of dangerous carbon pollution in the United States, and we have ready alternatives like wind and solar to replace them,” said Bruce Nilles,director of the Sierra Club’s Beyond Coal campaign, which wants to shut all of the nation’s coal plants.“We have a choice,” he said, “which in most cases is cheaper and doesn’t have any of the pollution.”Coal’s downward turn has hit Appalachia hardest, but the effects of the transition toward other energy sources has started to ripple westward.Mr. Eskelsen said Rocky Mountain Power would place some of the 70 Carbon facility employees at its two other Utah coal plants. Other workers will take early retirement or look for different jobs.Still, the notion that this pocket of Utah, where Greek, Italian and Mexican immigrants came to mine coal more than a century ago, could survive without it, is hard for people here to comprehend.“The attack on coal is so broad-reaching in our little community,” said Casey Hopes, a Carbon County co mmissioner, whose grandfather was a coal miner. “The power plants, the mines —they support so many smaller businesses. We don’t have another industry.”Like others in Price, Mr. Hopes voiced frustration with the Obama administration, saying it should be investing more in clean coal technology rather than discarding coal altogether. Annual Utah coal production, though, has been slowly declining for a decade according to the federal Energy Information Administration.Last year, mines here produced about 17 million tons of coal, the lowest level since 1987, though production has crept up this year.“This is the worst we’ve seen it,” said David Palacios, who works for a trucking company that hauls coal to the power plants, and whose business will slow once the Carbon plant closes. Mr. Palacios, president of the Southeastern Utah Energy Producers Association, noted that the demand for coal has always ebbed and flowed here.“But this has been two to three years we’re struggling through,” he said.Compounding the problem, according to some mining experts, is that until now, most of the state’s coal has been sold and used within the region, rather than being exported overseas. That has left the industry here more vulnerable to local plant closings.Cindy Crane, chairwoman of the Utah Mining Association, said demand for Utah coal could eventually drop as much as 50 percent. “For most players in Utah coal, this a tough time,” said Ms. Crane, vice president of PacifiCorp, a Western utility and mining company that owns the Carbon plant.Mr. Nilles of the Sierra Club acknowledged that the shift from coal would not be easy on communities like Carbon County. But employees could be retrained or compensated for lost jobs, he said, and new industries could be drawn to the region.Washington State, for example, has worked with municipalities and utilities to ease the transition from coal plants while ensuring that workers are transferred to other energy jobs or paid, if nearing retirement, Mr. Nilles said.“Coal has been good to Utah,” Mr. Nilles said, “but markets for coal are drying up. Y ou need to get ahead of this and make sure the jobs don’t all leave.”For many here, coal jobs are all they know. The industry united the area during hard times, too, especially during the dark days after nine men died in a 2007 mining accident some 35 miles down the highway. Virtually everyone around Price knew the men, six of whom remain entombed in the mountainside.But there is quiet acknowledgment that Carbon County will have to change —if not now, soon.David Palacios’s father, Pete, who worked in the mines for 43 years, has seen coal roar and fade here. Now 86, his eyes grew cloudy as he recalled his first mining job. He was 12, and earned $1 a day.“I’m retired, so I’ll be fine. But these young guys?” Pete Palacios said, his voice trailing off.NARSAQ, Greenland —As icebergs in the Kayak Harbor pop andhiss while melting away, this remote Arctic town and its culture are alsodisappearing in a changing climate.Narsaq’s largest employer, a shrimpfactory, closed a few years ago after the crustaceans fled north to coolerwater. Where once there were eight commercial fishing vessels, there is nowone.As a result, the population here,one of southern Greenland’s major towns, has been halved to 1,500 in just adecade. Suicides are up.“Fishing is the heart of this town,”said Hans Kaspersen, 63, a fisherman. “Lots of people have lost theirlivelihoods.”But even as warming temperatures areupending traditional Greenlandic life, they are also offering up intriguing newopportunities for this state of 57,000 — perhaps nowhere more so than here inNarsaq.V ast new deposits of minerals andgems are being discovered as Greenland’s massive ice cap recedes, forming thebasis of a potentially lucrative mining industry.One of the world’s largest depositsof rare earth metals —essential for manufacturing cellphones, wind turbinesand electric cars — sits just outside Narsaq.It has long been known thatGreenland sat upon vast mineral lodes, and the Danish government has mappedthem intermittently for decades. Niels Bohr, Denmark’s Nobel Prize-winningnuclear physicist and a member of the Manhattan Project, visited Narsaq in 1957because of its uranium deposits.But previous attempts at miningmostly failed, proving too expensive in the inclement conditions. Now, warminghas altered the equation.Greenland’s Bureau of Minerals andPetroleum, charged with managing the boom, currently has 150 active licensesfor mineral exploration, up from 20 a decade ago. Altogether, companies spent$100 million exploring Greenland’s deposits last year, and several are applyingfor licenses to begin construction on new mines, bearing gold, iron and zincand rare earths. There are also foreign companies exploring for offshore oil.The Black Angel lead and zinc mine,which closed in 1990, is applying to reopen this year, said Jorgen T.Hammeken-Holm, who oversees licensing at the country’s mining bureau, “becausethe ice is in retreat and you’re getting much more to explore.”The Greenlandic government hopesthat mining will provide new revenue. In granting Greenland home rule in 2009,Denmark froze its annual subsidy, which is scheduled to be decreased further inthe coming years.Here in Narsaq, a collection ofbrightly painted homes bordered by spectacular fjords, two foreign companiesare applying to the government for permission to mine.That proximity promises employment,and the company is already schooling some young men in drilling and in English,the international language of mine operations. It plans to build a processingplant, a new port and more roads. (Greenland currently has none outside ofsettledareas.) Narsaq’s tiny airport, previously threatened with closure fromlack of traffic, could be expanded. A local landlord is contemplatingconverting an abandoned apartment block into a hotel.“There will be a lot of peoplecoming from outside and that will be a big challenge since Greenlandic culturehas been isolated,” said Jasper Schroder, a student home in Narsaq fromuniversity in Denmark.Still, he supports the mine andhopes it will provide jobs and stem the rash of suicides, particularly amonghis peers; Greenland has one of the highest suicide rates in the world. “Peoplein this culture don’t want to be a burden to their families if they can’tcontribute,” he said.But not all are convinced of thebenefits of mining. “Of course the mine will help the local economy and willhelp Greenland, but I’m not so sure if it will be good for us,” said Dorotheaodg aard, who runs a local guesthouse. “We are worried about the loss ofnature.”It didn’t take long for Manuel García Murillo, a bricklayer who took over as mayor here last June, to realize that his town was in trouble. It was 800,000 euros, a little more than $1 million, in the red. There was no cash on hand to pay for anything — and there was work that needed to be done.But then an amazing thing happened, he said. Just as the health department was about to close down the day care center because it didn’t have a proper kitchen, Bernardo Benítez, a construction worker, offered to put up the walls and the tiles free. Then, Maria José Carmona, an adult education teacher, stepped in to clean the place up.And somehow, the volunteers just kept coming. Every Sunday now, the residents of this town in southwest Spain —young and old — do what needs to be done, whether it is cleaning the streets, raking the leaves, unclogging culverts or planting trees in the park.“It was an initiative from them,” said Mr. García. “Day to day we talked to people and we told them there was no money. Of course, they could see it. The grass in between the sidewalks was up to my thigh. “Higuera de la Serena is in many ways a microcosm of Spain’s troubles. Just as Spain’s national and regional governments are struggling with the collapse of the construction industry, overspending on huge capital projects and a pileup of unpaid bills, the same problems afflict many of its small towns.But what has brought Higuera de la Serena a measure of fame in Spain is that the residents have stepped up where their government has failed. Mr. García says his phone rings regularly from other town officials who want to know how to do the same thing. He is serving without pay, as are the town’s two other elected officials. They are also forgoing the cars and phones that usually come with the job.“We lived beyond our means,” Mr. García said. “We invested in public works that weren’t sensible. We are in technical bankruptcy.” Even some money from the European Union that was supposed to be used for routine operating expenses and last until 2013 has already been spent, he said.Higuera de la Serena, a cluster of about 900 houses surrounded by farmland, and traditionally dependent on pig farming and olives, got swept up in the giddy days of the construction boom. It built a cultural center and invested in a small nursing home. But the projects were plagued by delays and cost overruns.The cultural center still has no bathrooms. The nursing home, a whitewashed building sits on the edge of town, still unopened. Together, they account for some $470,000 of debt owed to the bank. But the rest of the debt is mostly the unpaid bills of a town that was not keeping up with its expenses. It owes for medical supplies, for diesel fuel, for road repair, for electrical work, for musicians who played during holidays.Higuera de la Serena is not completely without workers. It still has a half-time librarian, two half-time street cleaners, someone part-time for the sports complex, a secretary and an administrator, all of whom are paid through various financing streams apart from the town. But the town once had a work force twice the size. And when someone is ill, volunteers haveto step in or the gym and sports complex — open four hours a day — must close.For more than 30 years, I have been wondering about L.R. Generson.On one of our first Christmases together, my husband gave me a complete set of Dickens. There were 20 volumes, bound in gray cloth with black corners, old but in good condition. Stamped on the flyleaf of each volume, in faded block letters, was the name of the previous owner: "L.R. Generson, M.D., Bronx, NY."That Dickens set is one of the best presents anyone has ever given me. A couple of the books are still pristine, but others - “Bleak House,’’ “David Copperfield,’’ and especially “Great Expectations’’ - have been read and re-read almost to pieces. Over the years, the character kept me company. And so, , has L.R. Generson.，in his silent enigmatic way.Did he love the books as much as I do? Who was he? On a whim, I Googled him. There wasn’t much - a single mention on a veterans’ website of a World War II captain named Leonard Generson. But I did find a Dr. Richard Generson, an oral surgeon living in New Jersey. Since Generson is not a common name, I decided to write to him.Dr. Generson was kind enough to write back. He told me that his father, Leonard Richard Generson, was born in 1909. He lived in New Y ork City but went to medical school in Basel, Switzerland. He spoke 10 languages fluently. As an obstetrician and gynecologist, he opened a practice in the Bronx shortly before World War II. His son described him as “an extremely patriotic individual’’; right after Pearl Harbor he closed his practice and enlisted. He served throughout the war as a general surgeon with an airborne special forces unit in Europe, where he became one of the war’s most highly decorated physicians.Leonard Generson’s son didn’t remember the Dickens set, though he told me that there were always a lot of novels in the house. His mother probably “cleaned house’’ after his father’s death in 1977 - the same year my husband bought the set in a used book store.I found this letter very moving, with its brief portrait of an intelligent, brave man and his life of service. At the same time, it made me question my presumption that somehow L.R. Generson and I were connected because we’d owned the same set of books. The letter both told me a little about him, and told me that I would never really know anything about him - and why should I? His son must have been startled to hear from a stranger on such a fragile pretext. What had I been thinking?One possible, and only somewhat facetious, answer is that I’ve read too much Dickens. In the world of a Dickens novel, everything is connected to everything else. Orphans find families. Lovers are joined (or parted and morally strengthened). Ancient mysteries are solved and old scores are settled. Questions are answered. Stories end.Leonard Generson’s life touched mine only lightly, th rough the coincidence of a set of books. But there are other lives he touched more deeply. The next time I read a Dickens novel, I will think of him and his military service and his 10 languages. And I will think of the hundreds of babies he must have delivered, who are now in the middle of their own lives and their own stories.格陵兰岛纳萨克——随着皮艇港(Kayak Harbor)的冰山在融化过程中发出嘶嘶的响声，这座偏远的北极小镇和它的文化，也正在随着气候变化而消失。

N ow, miles of reddish-brown sand surround this village in northwestern Senegal, dotted with occasional bushes and trees. Dried animal dung is scattered everywhere, but hardly any dried grass is.Overgrazing and climate change are the major causes of the Sah ara’s advance, said Gilles Boetsch, an anthropologist who directs a team of French scientists working with Senegalese researchers in the region. “The local Peul people are herders, often nomadic. But the pressure of the herds on the land has bee too great,” Mr. Boetsch said in an interview. “The vegetation can’t regenerate itself.”After their first dry season, the saplings look dead, brown twigs sticking out of holes in the ground, but 80 percent survive. Six years on, trees planted in 2023 are up to three meters, or 10 feet, tall. So far, 30,000 hectares, or about 75,000 acres, have been planted, including 4,000 hectares this summer. There are already discernible impacts on the microclimate, said Jean-Luc Peiry, a physical geography professor at the Universit Blaise Pascal in Clermont-Ferrand, France, who has placed 30 sensors to record temperatures in some planted parcels.“Preliminary results show that clumps of four to eight small trees can have an important impact on temperature,” Professor Peiry said i n an interview. “The transpiration of the trees creates a microclimate that moderates daily temperature extremes.” “The trees also have an important role in slowing the soil erosion caused by the wind, reducing the dust, and acting like a large rough doormat, halting the sand-laden winds from the Sahara,” headded. Wildlife is responding to the changes. “Migratory birds are reappearing,” Mr. Boetsch said.Section 2: Chinese-English Translation (50 points) Translate the following passage into English.安康是促进人的全面开展的必然要求。

大多数情况下，导演自身强烈的个性特征需要通过他人的面部表情和肢体语言才能表现出来。
比如，提起导演约翰·福特，在你脑海中出现的也许是演员约翰·韦恩的形象。
导演伊利亚·卡赞富有激情，不易相处，行事专断，其个性不亚于同辈中的任何人，他的形象将主要通过一批演员塑造的艺术形象而留在人们的记忆中。
卡赞先生星期天去世了，随后的电视讣告就像是一部精选的专辑，汇聚了众多体验派演艺明星。
在这里，有演过《欲望号街车》和《码头风云》马龙·白兰度，他高喊“斯特拉！”，他悄悄地对罗德·斯泰格尔说，他本来有可能是一个有力的竞争对手；有演过《伊甸园之东》的詹姆斯·狄恩，有演过《天涯何处无芳草》的华伦·比提。
英俊的年轻人，动人地演绎了一段痛苦的情感；有《娃娃新娘》里的埃里·瓦拉赫和卡尔·莫尔登，两人倾情演绎了密西西比蛇舞，其妖艳性感以及票房收入方面均难以与之抗衡。
作为一个“演员工作室”的建立者，卡赞先生在20世纪40年代后期经常穿梭于百老汇和好莱坞之间。
他把美国戏剧写实主义所表现的细腻情感及其演艺风格带到了美国电影里，也许这方面卡赞先生居功至伟。
早期电影里程式化的语言表达和优雅的动作被取代了，首创了一种吞吞吐吐、含含蓄蓄的情感演艺方式。
社会问题、委婉表达的性以及心理真实等问题成了舞台和荧屏上严肃剧的标志。
现实主义，任何艺术形式中的现实主义，都是一个带有明显欺骗性的术语。
尤其是在电影艺术中，幻想着透明地反映现实，这种幻想最为严重。
如今看来，卡赞先生的电影，反映的似乎不像生活片段，更像社会的寓言，心理的寓言，与其说质朴粗狂，还不如说夸张高调。
2024英语三级笔译(Catti 3)实务真题及参考译文
2024年英语三级笔译（CATTI3）实务真题及参考译文1.英译汉（原文）The last vestiges of Covid Restrictions have finally been removed, and international tourism is exploding—more than 900 million eager tourists took to the skies in 2022, doubling the number from 2021.But as world travel recovers from the pandemic, the rise in tourism is, among other things, overwhelming foreign infrastructure, disrupting local residents and diminishing the overall tourist experience.Although tourism still boosts the economies of hotspot cities, municipal authorities are concerned about the impact over tourism has on their communities and cultural heritage sites and have thus started taking matters into their own hands to mitigate overcrowding.To counter the downsides of overtourism, the travel industry can utilize tech-based tools that combat the root causes of tourist congestion and actively encourage travel to lesser-known places, thereby satisfying tourists without burdening the local residents.According to one study, when tourist numbers exceed a city’s carrying capacity, residents’ perception of their home as a good place to live begins to deteriorate, increasing feelings of resentment toward tourists during peak seasons.Amsterdam, with its picturesque canals, stunning brick architecture and leisurely bicycle paths, is just one of several cities reeling from the effects of overtourism; more than 20 million tourists are anticipated to visit the city this year alone.To curb the flow of visitors without destabilizing the tourism market, the city introduced a cap on overnight guests and is proposing further measures that include relocating some popular tourist attractions to outside the city center—or even removing them altogether.To give the city more “breathing space”, the mayor of Dubrovnik（杜布罗夫尼克，克罗地亚城市）shut down 80% of its souvenir stalls and restricted cruise ship and tour bus operations. City officials in Barcelona instituted taxes for overnight tourists and barred entry to certain food markets. And in Venice, officials banned the development of new hotels and installed turnstiles along popular routes to redirect tourist traffic.To thrive with resident communities, the tourism industry must cultivate a new approach that better serves local interests when promoting destinations and trip options.Marketing trips through the use of thoughtful ad campaigns and tech tools that inspire tourists to venture away from conventional hotspots and explore lesser-known attractions could lead to a more even distribution of travelers across various destinations.To that end, dispersing tourists should be a top business goal for travel providers rather than focusing only on the high-traffic destinations. This not only enables travelers to genuinely experience diverse cultures but also provides vital support torural-located businesses, restaurants and cultural establishments, which stand to gain the most from tourist dollars.In order to empower travelers to visit new or unfamiliar destinations, the industry should consider leveraging tech-based tools to convince them. Airbnb（爱彼迎公司）, for example, rolled out flexible search features in 2021 that divert bookings away from destinations at times when overtourism occurs, encouraging tourists to make accommodations in alternative cities or towns.With tourists overrunning major destinations, the tourism industry and local municipalities must find some middle ground. Heavily visited cities will otherwise be forced to impose further tourist restrictions, putting an entire revenue stream at risk.1.英译汉（译文）新冠疫情最后剩余的限制终于被解除，国际旅游业也因此迎来了爆发式增长——2022年，有超过9亿热切的游客乘飞机出行，人数是2021年的两倍。

The lantern costs between $66-$112, about a week’s income for Waghri. “The vegetables look better by this light, and it’s cheaper than kerosene and doesn’t smell,” said Waghri, who estimates估计she makes about 300 rupees ($6) more each evening with her lantern. “If we can use the sun to save some money, why not?”In India, solar power projects, often funded by micro credit institutions微小信贷机构, are helping the country reduce carbon emissions and achieve its goal to double the contribution of renewable可再生energy to 6%, or 25,000 megawatts兆瓦, within the next four years.Off-grid applications such as solar cookers and lanterns, which can provide several hours of light at night after being charged by the sun during the day, will help cut dependence on fossil fuels化石燃料and reduce the fourth biggest emitter’s carbon footprint, said Pradeep Dadhich, a senior fellow at energy research institute TERI in India“ They are reaching people who otherwise have limited or no access to electricity and depend on kerosene, diesel柴油or firewood for their energy need,” he said. “The appliances not only satisfy these needs, they also improve the quality of life and reduce the carbon emissions.”SEWA, or the Self-Employed Women’s Association, is among a growing number of microfinance institutions in India focused on providing affordable renewable energy sources to poor people, who otherwise would have had to stand for hours to buy kerosene for lamps or trudge kilometers to collect firewood for cooking.SKS, Microfinance, the largest such institution in India, offers solar lamps to its 5 million customers, while the Rural Solar Electricity Foundation helps pay for lamps and systems for homes and street lighting for villagers in India, Nepal and Bangladesh.In neighboring Bangladesh, the state-owned国营and private-sector私营power plants发电厂can generate3,700 to 4,300 megawatts of electricity a day against a demand of 5,500 megawatts, according to根据the state-run power development board. With only 40 percent of the country’s people having access to electricity, microfinance institutions like Grameen Bank have made a major push toward expanding the use of solar power. Since 2001, 350,000 solar home systems have been installed in Bangladesh and 550,000 solar lanterns have been distributed,bringing solar power to about 4 million people.“Right now 2.5million people are benefiting from solar energy, and we have a plan to reach 10 million people by the end of 2012,”said Dipal Chandra Barua, managing director of Grameen Shakti, an offshoot of the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize winner Grameen Bank, which encourages the use of alternative energy.答案在印度次大陆的边远地区，当夜幕降临的时候，数亿人用不上电，靠蜡烛或煤油灯照明。

英语三级笔译证书考试英译汉真题精选（20篇）及参考译文Passage 1Exercise Alone Will Not Ensure Weight LossThis may come as a shock: for all its other benefits, exercise doesn’t guarantee weight loss. Experts are coming to realize that we can exercise like crazy, but we’re unlikely to get thin unless we also change what we eat. Why? First, you have to do an awful lot of exercise to burn off calories. You’d have to swim for 40 minutes to burn off a slice of pepperoni pizza*; go skating for 50 minutes to cancel out a chicken caesar salad; or play cricket for 25 minutes to wipe away the traces of one small glass of dry white wine.Trainer Scott Williams decided the best way to show this in action was to put one volunteer on a high-speed treadmill for five minutes, while another stood behind scoffing pizza for the same amount of time. At the end, the volunteer whipping sweat from his forehead had burnt off 110 calories; the one wiping cheese from his chin had taken in 640 calories.“It’s a mistake a lot of people make—they think they can eat what they like if they are exercising,”says Williams. Some expels believe that when we exercise a lot we tend to eat more, either because we’re hungrier or because we feel we deserve a treat after all the hard work. We also move less for the rest of the day. The news you might not want to hear is that if exercise is going to make a difference, youhave to work out in addition to normal daily physical activity.* pepperoni pizza：意式香肠比萨饼(2011年5月试题) 参考译文单靠运动不会确保减体重尽管运动有诸多益处，但不能确保减轻体重，这种说法可能会令人惊讶。

英语笔译实务3级配套训练第三单元英译汉（一）NY City Seeks to Expand Lower-Cost UnitsThe City Council yesterday approved the first major overhaul of the most popular tax break for apartment building developers, adopting a plan intended to induce them to build tens of thousands of apartments for people other than the wealthy.The changes, which Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg supported and which would go into effect in 2008, significantly increase the areas of the city in which developers who want the tax break must make one out of every five apartments they build affordable to lower-income people. The boundaries of those areas would be reconsidered every two years in light of trends in the housing market.In addition, and for the first time in the 35-year history of the program, those lower-priced apartments would have to be included in each building and could not be built elsewhere in the city. There would be a cap on the size of the tax break given for market-rate apartments, to limit the degree to which the program might be said to subsidize gentrification.The revised program would also include a $400 million trust fund for developing low-and moderately-priced housing, especially in the city’s 15 poorest neighborhoods in the city.Housing officials estimate that the program, which is said to have fueled the construction of 110,000 units since 1971, will generate 20,000 new unitsof lower-priced housing over the first 10 years. The apartments, for rent or sale, will be set aside for low-income New Yorkers.课文词汇City Council 市议会tax break 减税；赋税优惠induce 诱导；诱使Michael 迈克尔Bloomberg 布隆伯格subsidize 补贴gentrification 乡绅化；trust fund 依托基金提高（房屋的品味）moderately 中等程度地fuel 推动；刺激参考译文纽约市大力开发低价住宅昨天纽约市议会批准了一项重大改革，首次调整了对公寓房开发商进行减税的政策，该举措备受欢迎。

Section 1: English-Chinese Translation (50 points)Translate the following passage into Chinese.Guidebook company Lonely Planet has revealed its 18th annual“Best in Travel” list.The 2023 edition is in a slightly different format than it has been in years past. Rather than a simple list, the destinations are split up into five categories – eat, learn, journey, unwind and connect. “This year, we really wanted to try something new and we wanted to reflect the way that we saw travelers looking for travel, which was about the destination, but also about the experience,” explains Nitya Chambers, executive editor and senior vice president of content at Lonely Planet.Lonely Planet reaches out to its wide network of contributors around the world and asks them to nominate destinations they believe should be on the list. From there, editors at Lonely Planet HQ begin to ask more questions, work their sources and narrow down the options until it is released in November.That might mean taking a chance on a new country, like Malta or Guyana, that all your friends haven’t been to yet. It might mean choosing a less-visited place in a favorite destination, like Marseille rather than Paris or Fukuoka instead of Tokyo. All four spots are among the 30 destinations of the 2023 list. It’s no surprise that Peru appears as one of the picks under the “eat” section of Lonely Planet’s list –as it has been racking up the recognition for years on the World’s 50 Best Restaurants list. However, its South American sibling Montevideo – another “eat” entry – is not as high profile. Street food lovers should head to Kuala Lumpur. The capital is a perfect location for an introduction to food from all over Malaysia, like Penang-style curries and fish maw soup.As the world opened up after long Covid restrictions, many travelers felt the urge to connect or reconnect with others. Sydney, in this context, makes Lonely Planet’s “connect” list. The Australian city is known for its friendly inhabitants, as well as for its beautiful beaches, top-notch food scene and a pretty cool opera house. People with African heritage may want to head to Ghana for their own sense of connection. The country observed a Year of Return in 2019, which brought people from all over the diaspora to Ghana with fellowship and community. Just because the pass of the year doesn’t mean the loss of the sense of connection. The country,observed a Year of Return in 2019, which brought people from all over the diaspora to Ghana for fellowship and community. Just because the year passed doesn’t mean that the sense of connection has gone: Ghana wants to hit a goal of eight million tourists per year.The pandemic spurred another powerful desire, too:the stress of working from home while homeschooling the kids over Zoom means many travelers just want to take a long break. Island destinations, like Jamaica and Dominica in the Caribbean, are just the place to unwind, according to Lonely Planet. The former is high on Chambers’ personal list for 2023. “There’s just an opportunity with our kids in the summer (to) spend some more time, go immerse and have the experience of living somewhere where you can really feel changed and transformed by being part of another place.Malta – another “unwind” destination – is a lesser-known gem with the climateof Italy and the landscape of the Middle East. And in Asia, the Indonesian archipelago of Raja Ampat might be one of the last paradises left on Earth. It is loved for eco-tourism and is home to a massively successful coral restoration project. LP designated six “journey” spots, places for most travel-lovers. It’s no surprise that the central Asian kingdom of Bhutan made the cut.【参考译文】：旅行指南出版商《孤独星球》(LonelyPlanet) 连续第18年发布年度“世界最佳旅行目的地”(BestinTravel) 榜单。

翻译三级笔译实务2021年06月Section Ⅰ English-Chinese TranslationTranslate the following passage into Chinese.1. （江南博哥）Are you having difficulty following diets? Our lives are way more complex than those which allow us to stick to a monotonous restrictive diet. Food psychologist Ridhi Golechha (里迪·格莱查) said, "If all of us could follow diets, we'd all have reached our goals. Real-life stresses such as lockdown anxiety, relationship conflicts, workload, financial stresses, exasperating parenting, teenage drama, and so much more directly impact how wefeel and by virtue, what we eat. If on paper diets were so easy to follow, then we'd all be part of that tiny ten percent of people in the world (athletes, models, or actresses)—who are permanently fit."We all know of those rough days when all we want is to drown our faces in a tub of ice cream or reach out for that melting chocolate cake. "Emotional eating is nothing but eating our emotions. We're all human with emotions and hunger. By that definition, all of us are emotional eaters. We turn to food when we're overwhelmed with anger, sadness, frustration, or any other significant emotion," explained Ridhi.There's a reason why the butterfly comes back to suck sweet nectar from the flowers, in turn pollinating the rest of the garden. Humans much like animals, birds and insects are hardwired for pleasure. But here's the catch—we humans are afraid of receiving pleasure. Many fear that if they allow themselves to eat a slice of cheesy pizza (and also enjoy it), they'll be overwhelmed with pleasure, lose control, and end up finishing the whole pizza. We fear this would result in a failed diet, weight gain and massive guilt, so we avoid it altogether. But, it doesn't work.Biology suggests otherwise. Like every other species, homo-sapiens were also built for survival. It is pleasure that drives humans to repeat the feel-good behaviour endlessly—explained Ridhi.When does emotional eating become worrisome? "Largely, there's nothing wrong with that. We do eat to manage and cope with our feelings, especially those that don't feel so good because eating itself is so biologically rewarding. It's completely okay if we're doing it once in a while, because as I said we're all evolutionarily wired to emotional eating. However, if we're constantly depending onfood to swallow our difficult emotions and discomforts—leaving uswith a feeling of guilt constantly at the end of it—then definitely, we need to work on it," said Ridhi.What can we do to reduce emotional eating? According to Ridhi, the reason we fail our diets is that we try to fight biology and suppress our emotions, which only works temporarily. To make long-lasting changes, we must address the root causes of emotional eating. Here are a few tips to get you started:First, don't skip meals. Starving often confuses yourbiological hunger drives and makes you more vulnerable to eat your emotions. Second, understand the difference between actual physical hunger versus emotional hunger. Third, make a list of the top three emotions you feel weakly and start finding different ways to copewith them. Fourth, talk to an expert. It's better not to ignore your emotional eating since it can later cause health issues like bloating, gas, acidity, constipation, etc. Fifth, go for a walk or do something completely different that will take away your urge by distracting you momentarily.Emotional eating is a message that reveals a deeper problem. Understanding yourself and the way you eat can address the rootcauses and enable you to live a life that is beyond food obsessions and the fear of failing your diets.正确答案：①你是否在为节食苦苦挣扎?②我们的生活往往复杂得多，不允许我们坚持按照单调又严格的健康食谱进行饮食。

For the past 30 years, I have witnessed and experienced the severe restrains on any free and balanced discussion of the facts. This reluctance to criticize policies of the Israeli government is due to the extraordinary lobbying efforts of the American-Israel Political Action Committee and the absence of any significant contrary voices.It would be almost politically suicidal for members of Congress to assume a balanced position between Israel and Palestine, to suggest that Israel comply with international law to speak in defense of justice or human rights for Palestinians.What is even more difficult to comprehend is why the editorial pages of the major newspapers and magazines in the US exercise similar self-restraint, quite contrary to private assessments expressed forcefully by their correspondents in the Holy Land.My new book, Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid, is devoted to1 / 3Unit 10 EN-CH (I) Center on Israel-Palestine Issuescircumstances and events in Palestine and not in Israel, where democracy prevails and citizens live together and are legally guaranteed equal status.

第一篇汉译英译文中意两国都是拥有悠久历史和灿烂文化的文明古国。
2000多年前，古罗马正处于文明鼎盛时期，中华文明也达到了历史的巅峰，一条“丝绸之路”将两大文明联结在一起。
威尼斯商人马可·波罗、利玛窦、郎世宁等是为中西文化交流做出贡献的意大利人，更为中国人民所熟知。
Both China and Italy are ancient civilizations that boast a long history and splendid cultures. More than 2, 000 years ago, when the ancient Roman civilization was in its heyday and the Chinese civilization also reached a historical peak, the "Silk Road" was built to link these two great civilizations. Those Italians who had made considerable contributions to cultural exchanges between Italy and China such as the merchants of Venice — Marco Polo, Matteo Ricci and Giuseppe Castiglione have all become well known to the Chinese people.过去意大利援助过中国，现在意大利希望中国企业家去那里投资。
20年前单向的“丝绸之路”已不能适应现在中国发展的形势，我们需要再开放第二条“丝绸之路”。
为此，意大利驻华大使馆做了许多工作，通过简化签证等程序，方便更多中国人去意大利投资、旅游。
The Italian used to aid the Chinese people, and now they hope that more Chinese entrepreneurs can go and invest in Italy. 20 years ago, the one-way "Silk Road" can no longer meet the demand of China's current development, so another one needs building. For this reason, the Italian Embassy has made a lot of efforts by simplifying visa application to facilitate more Chinese people to invest and travel in Italy.就个人爱好而言，骑自行车去月坛的邮票市场搜集邮票是我的最爱。
CATTI三级笔译实务(附答案)
CATTI三级笔译实务Section1: English-Chinese translationThe importance of agriculture cannot be overstated. More than 50 percent of the world’s labor force is employed in agriculture. The distribution in the early 1980s ranged from 67 percent of those employed in Africa to less than 5 percent in North America. In Western Europe, the figure was about 16 percent; in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union, about 32 percent; and in Asia, about 68 percent.Farm size varies widely from region to region. Recently the average for Canadian farms was about 186 ha (about 460 acres) per farm, and for U.S. farms, about 175 ha (about 432 acres). The average size of a single landholding in the Philippines, however, may be somewhat less than 3.6 ha (less than 9 acres), and in Indonesia, a little less than 1.2 ha (less than 3 acres).Size also depends on the purpose of the farm. Commercial farming, or production for cash, is usually done on large holding. The plantations of Latin America are large, privately owned estates worked by tenant labor. Single-crop plantations produce tea, rubber, cocoa. Wheat farms are most efficient when they comprise some thousands of hectares and can be worked by teams of people and machines. Australian sheep stations and other livestock farms must be large to provide grazing for thousands of animals.Individual subsistence farms or small-family mixed-farm operations are decreasing in number in developed countries but are still numerous in the developing countries of Africa and Asia. A “back-to-the-land” movement in the U.S. reversed the decline of small farms in New England and Alaska in the decade from 1970 to 1980.The conditions that determine what will be raised in an area include climate, water supply, and terrain.Over the 10,000 years since agriculture began to be developed, peoples everywhere have discovered the food value of wild plants and animals and domesticated and bred them. The most important are cereals such as wheat, rice, barley, corn and rye.Agricultural income is also derived from non-food crops such as rubber, fiber plants, tobacco, and oilseeds used in synthetic chemical compounds. Money is also derived from raising animals for pelt.Much of the foreign exchange earned by a country may be derived from a single commodity; for example, Sri Lanka depends on tea, Denmark specializes in dairy products, Australia in wool, and New England in meat products. In the U.S., wheat has become a major foreign exchange commodity in recent years.The importance of an individual country as an exporter of agricultural products depends on many variables. Among them is the possibility that the county is too little developed industrially to produce manufactured goods in sufficient quantity or technical sophistication. Such agricultural exporters include Ghana with cocoa, and Myanmar with rice. On the other hand, an exceptionally well-developed country may produce surpluses not needed by its own population; this as been true of the U.S., Canada, and some of the West European countries.Section2: Chinese-English translation由于西藏地处“世界屋脊”，自然条件恶劣，也由于几百年落后的封建农奴制社会形成的各种社会历史条件内的限制，西藏在全国还属于不发达地区。

英语笔译实务3级配套训练第一单元英译汉（一）San FranciscoSan Francisco, open your Golden Gate, sang the girl in the theatre. She never finished her song. That date was 18th April, 1906. The earth shook and the roof suddenly divided, buildings crashed to the ground and people rushed out into the streets. The dreadful earthquake destroyed the city that had grown up when men discovered gold in the deserts of California. But today the streets of San Francisco stretch over more than forty steep hills, rising like huge cliffs above the blue waters of the Pacific Ocean.The best way to see this splendid city, where Spanish people were the first to make their homes, is to take one of the old cable cars which ran along the nine main avenues. Fares are cheap; they have not risen, I’m told, for almost a hundred years.You leave the palm trees in Union Square –the heart of San Francisco – and from the shop signs and the faces around you, you will notice that in the city live people from many nations – Austrians, Italians, Chinese and others – giving each part a special character. More Chinese live in China Town than in any other part of the world outside China. Here, with Chinese restaurants, Chinese post-boxes, and even oddtelephone-boxes that look like pagodas, it is easy to feel you are in China itself.Fisherman’s Wharf, a place all foreigners want to see, is at the end of the ride. You get out, pause perhaps to help the other travelers to swing the cable car on its turntable (a city custom), and then set out to find a table in one of the gay little restaurants beside the harbor. As you enjoy the fresh Pacific seafood you can admire the bright red paint of the Golden Gate Bridge in the harbor and watch the traffic crossing beneath the tall towers on its way to the pretty village of Tiberon.课文词汇dreadful 可怕的pagoda 宝塔turntable 转盘。

躺在床上，盖着厚厚的百衲被, 呼吸着新鲜的山间空气，聆听着从窗外飘来的清晨大自然合奏曲：有凤头鹦鹉啁啾声，有蜥蜴溜过时悉悉索索的声音，有树叶的沙沙声。
我感觉自己是个真正的生态旅行家。
就在那时，一声刺耳的尖叫，隔壁的旅伴大声嚷道：“旅行袋里有只大蜘蛛！给我出去！”
我冲进客厅，看见朋友站在沙发上，一个终极都市人，两眼正盯着小木屋地板，上面一只硕大的蜘蛛，正从地板上爬过去。
我猜他开始后悔，不该和我一起参加这次“环保”旅行——这对于我们俩都是第一次。
离开纽约之前，他想象中的绿色度假，就是泡泡海藻浴，在海景无边游泳池旁边喝着莫吉托鸡尾酒，而不是在澳大利亚丛林里与棒球手套大小的爬行动物战斗。
由于我自己太城市化（我虽然在美国中西部长大，现在却住在伦敦），所以我计划了这次旅行，想看看以一种更加可持续的方式旅行是什么样子。
我多年来习惯的旅游方式是，随便搭个便宜的航班，飞到一个突然感兴趣的城市，毫不在乎自己旅行中的能源消耗。
不过，对于两个绿色旅行新手来说，我还是希望度假不要太颠簸。
所以，没有报名参加南极洲海洋保护区的探险之旅，也没有报名参加贝都因人做向导的穿越撒哈拉沙漠的跋涉之旅，而是决定体验一下一次更环保的经历：到新南威尔士州的大蓝山去徒步远足。
大蓝山2000年成为世界遗产保护区，据说其无与伦比的自然风光堪称一绝。
有丛林茂密风光优美的砂岩高原，有纵横交错的深沟峡谷，有与世隔绝的雨林和森森古树。

美国自由主义思想的“内耳”洞察时事，究竟有多高明呢？9.11恐怖袭击的影响甚为严重，随后要捍卫一个开放型的社会，我们需要在安全和自由之间找到平衡点，需要在《独立宣言》的第一项与第二项不可剥夺的人类权利之间找到平衡点，需要提醒我们的同胞：在一场与封闭型社会展开的理想信念的战斗中，自由与宽容是我们军械库中最强大的武器。
即便如此，在这场战斗中，我们仍然需要一些的常规武器。
对于2001年9月11号突然降临的恐怖袭击，不可以认为它纯粹是或者主要是对美国全球政策或者中东政策的报复。
恐怖分子们所信奉的带有神权政治色彩的极端民族主义是中东地区本土政治的产物，特别是中东地区政治发展滞后的产物。
这个问题主要出在这些政权自己身上。
几乎所有这些政权都禁止正常的政治活动。
正常的政治活动就是指不受国家资助，建立政党，结成联盟，组织社团。
简而言之，就是实行公民社会和议会民主。
这些政权包括波斯湾地区一些打压政治活动的君主制政权，包括叙利亚和伊拉克的世俗极权主义政权，包括伊朗（在伊朗，神权统治者被迫与更多的多元势力进行博弈）和阿富汗（在阿富汗，则没有多元势力与之进行博弈）的神权政治共和政权。
上述政权没有一个对培育真正的国内政治感兴趣。
相反，他们要么推行，要么纵容一种地区性的甚至全球性的空头政治，无一例外是反以色列的，某些情况下是反美的空头政治。
问及戴维营提出的解决方案，巴勒斯坦民族权力机构主席亚西尔·阿拉法特说，他必须和内部各个派别的领导人进行磋商。
他不是说笑的。
虽然，奥斯陆和平进程的完成可能意味着向和平迈出了一大步，但是，以巴和解也有可能给各个阿拉伯政权带来不稳定的因素。
因为，长期以来，反以色列既是公众表达政治意愿的安全阀，又是这些政权与民众联系的纽带。

前不久，两件事撞到一起，十分奇怪。
这让机警的华盛顿人享受了一回。
一边是“保守派政治行动会议”，是保守派各个右翼势力的年度大聚会。
在会上，约翰•麦凯恩努力树立自己保守派的形象，却招来了一片嘘声。
另一边，就在同一天，在城里的另一头，在保守派的另一个堡垒“美国企业研究所”里，前众议院发言人纽特·金瑞奇兜售其新作《世界的真正改变：从无可奈何到大有作为》，他却受到了热烈欢迎。
金瑞奇讲话，从不玩弄字眼，他号召“要爆炸性地取代过去失败的官僚机构”。
这其中的讽刺意味保守派似乎并未察觉。
保守主义运动中的人没有一个怀疑，金瑞奇是个真正的说一不二的保守派；许多人倒是怀疑，麦凯恩是不是保守派；一些人干脆不去理会他。
美国爱家协会主席、基督教右派领导人詹姆斯•道森因此说：“我深信麦凯恩参议员不是保守派”。
这些保守派始终认为，麦凯恩不是他们中一的员。
但是，实际上他们才算不上保守派，而麦凯恩却是。
假如那些发出嘘声的人认真听过麦凯恩的演讲，他们也许会发现，麦凯恩在演讲中多次提到罗纳德•里根。
即使没注意到，那也不足为奇。
不过，麦凯恩还特别提到另一位保守派泰斗，两次专门引用他的话语。
这个人就是埃德蒙·伯克。
伯克堪称现代保守派之父，至今仍被誉为保守派最圣明之大贤。
他的思想虽然很传统，却与典型的传统思想截然不同，绝不反动。
他坚信要把个人权利和社会秩序二者平衡起来。
在他看来，平衡二者的最佳方法就是，在实现自由与平等的过程中，尊重长期形成的习俗和制度。
毕竟，一个社会的传统凝聚了社会长期发展积累起来的集体智慧。
这种智慧即使是最聪明的个人也不可能指望彻底了解，更不用说要对这种智慧进行成功地彻底改造。
