【录音原文】

We already live in an over-communicated world that will only become more so in the next tech era. We’ve developed technology that gets us so much information that we’ve got cell phones ringing every second, we’ve got computers and laptops, we’ve got personal organizers and we’re just being bombarded with communication and every advance in technology seems to create more and more communications at us. We are sort of overwhelmed by the information flow.

Research suggests that all the multi-tasking may actually make our brains work better and faster, producing a world-wide increase in IQ up to 20 points and more in recent decades. Is there any real benefit in all these mental gymnastics we now

have to go through?

We’re not becoming a race of glob al idiots, but many do think certain skills are enhanced and certain are not. You know the ability to make fast decisions, to answer a dozen e-mails in five minutes, or to fill out maybe big aptitude tests. That’s enhanced. But when someone is out there wi th his kids playing in his little league or something like that, he’s got his cell phone in his pocket. He’s always wondering, “Gee, did I get a voicemail?” This might have negative effects on our own brain patterns.

Creativity is something that happens slowly. It happens when your brain is just noodling around, just playing, when it puts together ideas which you hadn’t thought of, or maybe you have time to read a book. You are a businessperson but you have time to read a book about history, or about a philosopher and something that happened long ago or something or some idea somebody thought of long ago. Actually, it might occur to you that you can think of your own business in that way, and so it’s this mixture of unrelated ideas that feeds your produc tivity, feeds your creativity. And if your mind is disciplined to answer every e-mail, then you don’t have time for that playful noodling. You don’t have time for those unexpected conjunctions. So I think maybe we’re getting smarter in some senses, but over-communication is a threat to our creativity and to our reflection.

Part B: Listening Comprehension

Directions: In this part of the test there will be some short talks and conversations.

After each one, you will be asked same questions. The talks,

conversations and questions will be spoken ONLY ONCE. Now, listen

carefully and choose the right answer to each question you have heard

and write the letter of the answer you have chosen in the corresponding

space in your ANSWER BOOKLET. Now let’s begin Part B wi th Listening

Comprehension.

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following conversation.

1. (A) The designing of a new town.

(B) The most livable small town in America.

(D) The updating of old building codes.

2. (A) Houses with front porches.

(B) Houses that are very close together.

(D) Easy access to the town center and to the vital institutions.

3. (A) It has nothing to do with a sense of nostalgia for the past.

(B) It has failed in the new town mentioned in the conversation.

(D) People spend very much time on front porches in hot climates.

4. (A) You are not allowed to use red curtains facing the street.

(B) You couldn’t attach a satellite dish to your house.

(D) You mustn’t park your car in front of your house for long.

5. (A) Some of these rules seem to go a little too far.

(B) Some of these rules are contradictory.

(D) These rules have not been approved by the developer.

【答案与解析】

1.A 对话开头男士便提到“in designing this new town…”，接着回顾了美国以前的小

城镇把最好的设计元素结合在一起，例如联排别墅，人行道，前廊和两边种着树的街道等。之后女士向男士提到“…give us a sense of how this new town was designed”，接下来对话中又多次提到new town，可推测本段对话主要围绕新城镇建设展开，因此选项A正确。

2.C 对话开头男士在回顾美国以前的小城镇时提到“houses close toget her...front

porches...easy, non-automobile-dependent access to the town center and to your neighbors and to the school and the other institutions that are vital”。

而在建造新城镇时把这些设计元素加进去并进行修改可以营造出社区感，可见只有选项C的内容没有被提及。

3.B 男士讲述完新城镇的设计后，女士提到新城镇将会带有一种怀旧感，就像过去很多房

子有门廊一样，男人接着指出这样会创造出“front porch culture”，对此进行解释后男士提到“But that really has been one of the failures that we observed during our two years in this new town...”，因此选项B与录音内容相符。

4.D 对话最后男士谈论了新城镇的规则制度，其中提到规定面向街道窗帘的颜色，并曾让

一位女士换掉红色窗帘，对应A项；此外这些规则要求“You couldn’t attach a satellite dish to your house”，对应B项；而且还规定“remove plastic flowers

中级口译真题+参考答案

9月中级口译真题+参考答案(4) Questions 16-20 We are moving inexorably into the age of automation. Our aim is not to devise a mechanism which can perform a thousand different actions of any individual man but, on the contrary, one which could by a single action replace a thousand men. Industrial automation has moved along three lines. First there is the conveyor belt system of continuous production whereby separate operations are linked into a single sequence. The goods produced by this well-established method are untouched by the worker, and the machine replaces both unskilled and semiskilled. Secondly, there is automation with feedback control of the quality of the product: here mechanisms are built into the system which can compare the output with a norm, that is, the actual product with what it is supposed to be, and then correct any shortcomings. The entire cycle of operations dispenses with human control except in so far as monitors are concerned. One or two examples of this type of automation will illustrate its immense possibilities. There is a factory in the U.S.A. which makes 1,000 million electric light bulbs a year, and the factory employs three hundred people. If the preautomation techniques were to be employed, the labour force required would leap to 25,000. A motor manufacturing company with 45,000 spare parts regulates their entire supply entirely by computer. Computers can be entrusted with most of the supervision of industrial installations, such as chemical plants or oil refineries. Thirdly, there is computer automation, for banks, accounting departments, insurance companies and the like. Here the essential features are the recording, storing, sorting and retrieval of information. The principal merit of modern computing machines is the achievement of their

2013年3月上海中级口译考试翻译真题及答案解析汇总【原文】朝气蓬勃，充满活力，丰富多彩的上海是现代中国的缩影。虽然上海的文化遗迹不能与北京媲美，但是上海迷人的城市风貌，风格各异的万国建筑为这座城市注入了无限的魅力。今日之上海，已经成为享誉中外的国际大都市。漫步在这座日新月异的现代大都市里，你会发现许多精彩的历史亮点，隐现在众多摩天大楼背后的是上海发展变化的轨迹。它们记述了上海自十九世纪末开埠以来，尤其是新中国成立以后，是如何迅猛发展的。【参考译文】 Shanghai is a dynamic, diverse and stimulating city - the very epitome of modern China. Though Shanghai cannot rival Beijing in cultural heritage, its varied architectural styles and cosmopolitan feel give it a charm of its own. Today's Shanghai has become a world-famous international metropolis. A walk through this booming city reveals many glimpses of its colorful past. Hidden amongst the skyscrapers are remains of the original Shanghai. They keep on showing how Shanghai has been developing fast and enormously since its opening as a commercial port in the late 19th century, especially after the founding of new China. 【评析】该篇翻译属于经典话题，类似于上海城市介绍，考生如果熟悉教材，注意积累相关句型词汇，特别是对“朝气蓬勃、充满活力dynamic, diverse and stimulating、缩影epitome、遗迹heritage、城市风貌cosmopolitan feel、万国建筑varied architectural styles”等常考的表达，应该可以顺利取得高分。 If you’ve ever been on a jury, you might have noticed that a funny thing happens the minute you get behind closed doors. Everybody starts talking about themselves. They say what they would have done if they had been the plaintiff or the defendant. Being on a jury reminds me why I can’t tolerate talk radio. We Americans seem to have lost the ability to talk about anything but our own experiences. We can’t seem to generalize without stereotyping or to consider evidence that goes against our own experience. I heard a doctor on a radio show talking about a study that found that exercise reduces the incidence of Alzheimer’s. And caller after caller couldn’t wait to make essentially the opposite point: “Well, my grandmother never exercised and she lived to 95.”We are in an age summed up by the saying: “I experience, therefore I’m right.”Historically, the hallmarks of an uneducated person were the lack of ability to think critically, to use deductive reasoning to distinguish the personal from the universal. Now that seems an apt description of many Americans. 【参考译文】如果你曾经当过陪审员，你可能会注意到一件有趣的事情：一旦关上了门，所有人就开始谈论他们自己。他们会讨论，如果自己是原告或被告的话会做什么。担任陪审员的经历让我明白了我为什么无法忍受谈话性的广播节目。我们美国人似乎只剩下了谈论自己经历的能力。我们似乎无法抛开固有的成见进行总结，也无法客观地分析与自身经历相悖的证据。我曾听过一位医生在之声节目上讲述一项研究，该研究发现锻炼能降低阿兹海默症（老

商务英语翻译技巧

商务英语翻译技巧摘要商务英语(Business English)是一种含有商务理论和实用商务的理论。在经济信息日益发达的现代社会，随着国际贸易的发展，商务英语翻译的作用越来越明显。本文，大致分为五个部分对商务英语翻译技巧进行分析。文章第一部分概括了商务英语以及商务英语翻译；第二部分分别从商务英语的文体特征、语言特点对其进行分析；之后三个部分分别介绍了翻译的方法和翻译的原则。最后进行总结。得出商务英语的翻译机巧和方法。关键字：商务英语；翻译技巧；特点；文体特征前言商务英语是以国际间的商务往来为基础的语言交流，商务英语包括的范围比较广，例如：金融方面的英语、贸易英语、还有一些专业的英语等。这也说明了商务英语所涉及的范围比较广泛，涉及各行各业，这也就决定了从事商务英语翻译的人不仅仅需要有扎实的英语基本功，还有对其他方面的英语进行了解，这样一来才能使交易双方能够更好地沟通，完成交易。现如今，整个世界融为了一个整体，各个国家之间的贸易往来逐渐丰富，目前在国际间最通用的就是英语。商务英语要求翻译者更加的精确、对等，因为商务英语中会涉及到很多文件、条款等信息，所以必须要精确。只有这样才能达到双方活动的顺利进行。尤其在我国，中西方文化差异较大，更应该注意这方面的问题。一字之差就容易铸成大错。所以，做好商务英语的翻译工作尤为重要。本文针对这一问题展开讨论，分析了商务英语的翻译技巧。商务英语及商务英语翻译的概括商务英语涉及范围很广,包括的种类也十分多。大部分跟国际商务活动有关的例如：国际贸易、会计、金融等方面所用到的英语都属于商务英语的范围。它涉及的领域主要包括对外贸易、招商引资、国际旅游、海外投资以及国际运输等方面。除了领域广泛之外,它还包括许多专业的英语例如：广告英语、法律英语、应用文英语、包装英语等。因此，伴随着国际贸易的范围不断的扩大，越来越多的人，开始加入到翻译的这一事业之中。对商务英语的翻译,在很长时间以来备受关注,商务英语翻译工作也是一项十分复杂的工作,由于其用途的广泛性和特殊要性,就决定了商务英语的翻译工作不能仅仅局限于传统的翻译中务词汇和具有较好的商务语法基础,这些是一个翻译者应该具备的原则和技巧,不能仅仅依靠“信、达、雅”的翻译要求来完成商务英语的翻译工作,必须依照商务文件的愿意,把它翻译的既能清楚的表达意义,又能够符合商务双方的语言习惯。在翻译的过程中一定要从实际情况出发,做到具体问题具体分析。商务英语的特点 2.1 商务英语的文体特征 2.1.1 思维具有逻辑性，朴实无华正式体英语的从句层次复杂，句子长度通常高于非正式英语。长句分词、独立主格结构的频繁使用是书面语体的典型特征，它们适合于表达多层次的复杂的逻辑关系，可以充分完整地表达相互关联的意义，这种效果是短句无法达到的。由于商务函电常要表示某些条款相互成立、互为条件，或对某些一连串的具有因果关系的事件进行叙述，因此，这种语体就非常适合这种要求。例如： The work hereof shall be commenced in compliance with the construction work of Party A’s plant, and shall be completed within thirty days after the complet ion of Party A’s plant

英语翻译之高级口译技巧

英语翻译之高级口译技巧口译是英语翻译的一个重要技能，口译的技巧有句式调整，断句和巧用连词，调整顺序，转换词性等，比如通过转换词性，可以把名词转为动词，或者把被动句调整为主动语态。。下面就和大家分享口译技巧，希望能够帮助到大家，来欣赏一下吧。口译技巧 1、句式调整同传在词语的翻译上可以做到地道和相对准确，但句子结构不可能像交传那样按照中文的句式习惯组织安排，对于英汉传译，往往需要采用英语句式的顺序：【例】Frankly, ideas and goods will travel around the globe with or without our help. 【译】坦率地讲，思想和商品都将会在全球流通，不管有没有我们的帮助。 2、断句和巧用连词处理长句是同传的基本功之一。翻译长句，除了断成译群外，还有一个关键要掌握，即英文句子之所以长是因为要避免重复使

用同一个词，于是用who、which、that 来代替主语或宾语，使得句子很长，而在中文中就不怕重复使用。【例】That is the single monetary policy which will be discussed at the next European Union conference. 【译】那就是单一货币政策// 该政策将在下一届欧盟会议上讨论。为了保证译出语的连贯性和准确性，同传时尽量使用译入语的文法结构，在将其断为多个句群后可以使用一些润滑剂，即连词，将单个的句群联系起来。 3、调整顺序在一些有after和before的句子中可以将其反说，比如：【例】I would like to make one point clear before I move on to the next point. 【译】我想先澄清一下，然后再讲下一部分。【例】I would like to move on to the next part after I clarify one point. 【译】我想谈下一部分，在这之前先澄清一点。 4、转换词性

9月中级口译真题+参考答案(5)

9月中级口译真题+参考答案(5) SECTION 3: TRANSLATION TEST （1）（30 minutes） Directions: Translate the following passage into Chinese and write your version in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET. The culture of any society is usually thought to be of two kinds: material and nonmaterial. Material culture includes the man-made phenomena which have physical properties such as height, breadth, and weight. A boat, a machine, a house-all these objects are part of the material culture. The nonmaterial culture is that portion of the environment which surrounds man and which has an impact on his behavior but which lacks these material properties: values, beliefs, traditions, and all the other habits and ideas invented and acquired by man as a member of society. Contemporary sociological theory tends to assign primary importance to the nonmaterial culture in choosing problems for study. It assumes, for example, that boats, planes, automobiles, and so forth, are not nearly so important as the traditions we have developed which make their manufacture possible-indeed, which prescribe how we are to use them. The emphasis of contemporary sociology is to insist that the material culture would not exist had not the nonmaterial culture first been available to suggest the ideas which are embodied in the inventions of material culture.
