Part 3
3、C andidate A
A： In the picture a stout lady with flowery dress is trying a pair of new shoes . The shop assistant serves her with patience. She has tried on many times, because there 1 re so many shoe boxes scatters
a ll round her. At last the woman gives a big yawn, for she feels bored? But the shop assistant is still
very patient and does as she is told to. Though the story is a little exaggerated in the picture, we know one fact that the services have been improved a lot these years. Several years ago, the customers often complained that they were spending money to buy rudeness and anger in department stores? The shop assistants often forgot that their job was to serve the customers, not to insult them. With the severe comDVtition among th。service industries, the quality of the services has been improved a lot. But I
think they could do much better.
在这幅图片里，一个长得胖胖的穿着花连衣裙的妇女正在试穿一双新鞋，店员很有耐心地为她服务。她已经试了很多次，鞋盒子摆了一地。最后这个妇女深深地打了个哈欠，因为她感到累了，但这位店员仍旧很有耐心的按照她所说的去做。虽然这幅图片中的故事有些夸张，但事实上这几年服务行业的服务质量确实提高了很多。以前许多顾客抱怨他们在百货商店是花钱买气受。许多店员都忘记了他们的职责是为顾客服务，而不是侮辱他们。随着服务行业激烈的竞争，服务质量提高了很多。但我认为他们还可以做得更好。
B : I agree with what Candidate A said. It must be pointed out that comDetition is a product of the development of society and it gives people a sense of the pursuit of excellence. In order to get the lion's share in the market, good services are necessary for the service industries.
我同意考生A所说的。必须要指出的是，竞争是社会发展的产物，它给了人们追求完美的意识。
为了争取更大的市场份额，优质的服务是服务行业必不可少的条件。
Candidate B
B: From this picture we can see an old man is going to get on a 11 loaf-taxi H, but the driver waves him away： Sorry, I don11 know the way. He just refused to take him there. I think nowadays some taxi drivers1 services are really very poor. They refuse to take yon [o a place where they think cheap or it's too out of the way. When they have to go through heavy traffic and the taxi will have to stop too many times, the driver won't takr you there with any kinds of excuses. Sometimes taxi is very convenient . For example, if you are going to be late for an important appointment, you can take a taxi . Bet the fares are high and beyond ordinary people's means in daily life. Anyway they do come in handy sometimes, but what they need to do now is to improve their service level
从这幅图片上我们可以看出，一个人正要上一辆面包车，但是这个司机摆手让他走开：对不起, 我不知道路。他不愿意拉他去那儿。我认为现在一些出租车司机的服务很差。要是你去的地方太便宜或是太偏僻，他们会拒我。当你去的地方交通拥挤，需要多次停车的时候，他们会用各种各样的理由拒载。但有时候出租车也是很方便的。比方说，一次重要的约会就要迟到了，你可以选择出租车。不过在日常生活中，出租车费对普通老百姓来说还是很高的。不管怎么说，有时他们还是很解决问题的，现在需要做的就是要提高服务质量。
A: Yes, I agree with what Candidate B said. I think the taxi service is iust so-so. Drivers should know that nowadays there are many means of transportation, such as bus and subway. They all have their own advantages: fast and cheap. So if taxi drivers don11 pay attention to their services, they will lose a lot of passengers in the future and can't survive in the competition.
是的，我同意考生B所说的。我认为出租车的服务质量一般。司机们应该知道如今己有多种交通工具，比如公交车和地铁。它们的优点就是怏捷、便宜。所以如果出租车司机不注重服务质量，他们在将来会失去一大批乘客，无法在竞争中生存。

The Princess of Cambridge has finally been revealed to the world as Charlotte Elizabeth Dianain a touching nod to her grandfather, her grandmother and her great-grandmother. The name has long tradition which can be traced hack to the royal background. Charlotte, derived from French name, pays tribute to her grandfather, prince of Wales. And Charlotte is also Kate's sister, Pippa Middleton's middle name. Kensington Palace revealed the royal baby's full name yesterday after days of speculation and close friends of Princess Diana immediately said the choice means the spirit of Prince William's beloved mother 'lives on'. William was, however, clear that his baby girl should not have Diana as a first name. "It would have been a millstone around her neck," said one of the princess' s longtime friends. Within minutes of the name being announced this afternoon, Diana's closest friend Rosa Monckton said： "Diana's spirit lives on in her sons, and now her name lives on in her granddaughter 'Charlotte Elizabeth Diana'. "Diana was the godmother of Mrs. Monckton's daughter Dominica The British citizens show their satisfaction with this name via Intemet. They said it is the perfect name for their lovely princess.

全国翻译专业资格(水平)考试英语三级笔译实务模拟试题
全国翻译专业资格（水平）考试英语三级笔译实务模拟试题 Part 1 English-Chinese Translation (英译汉) Translate the following passage into Chinese and write your translation on the ANSWER SHEET (60 points, 100 minutes). I leave the vault, and as the guard closes the door, a marine archaeologist asks if I want to see anything else. 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 salutes

2019年公共英语三级考试题及答案：写作 Directions： Read the text below. Write an essay in about 120 words, in which you should summarize the key points of the text and make comments on them. Try to use you own words. Beijing has extended its ban on operating outdoor barbecues from the city center outward to selected suburbs, according to municipal authorities. A year ago, Beijing banned restaurants from operating outdoor barbecues within the fourth ring road area. And now, the ban has extended to several suburbs, including Mentougou, Fangs- han, Tongzhou, Shunyi, Daxing, Pinggu and Miyun. The barbecue ban was announced to reduce Beijing' s air pollution, as barbecue has long been accused as one of the major contributors to haze. According to Wang Yuesi, a researcher from the Institute of Atmospheric Physics in Chinese Academy of Sciences, barbecuing can generate a lot of PM 2.5, harmful airborne particles measur- ing less than 2.5 microns in diameter. "Considering the seriousness of the air pollution in Beijing, we have to ban everything that may do harm to our environment!" Wang said. The issue has divided Chinese netizens, as half agreed with the policy while the other half called this grand plan nothing but "empty talk. "

Choose the best word or phrase for each numbered blank and mark A, B,C, or Don your ANSWER SHEET 1. Text Most young people enjoy physical activities, walking, cycling, football, or mountaineering. These who have a passion 26 climbing high and difficult mountains are often 27 with astonishment. Why are men and women 28 to suffer cold and hardship, and to 29 on high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activities 30 which men give their leisure. There are no man-made rules, as there are for 31 as golf and football. There are, of course, rules of different kinds which it would be dangerous to 32 , but it is this freedom from man-made rules 33 makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to their own 34 . If we 35 mountaineering with other more familiar sports, we might think that one big difference is 36 mountaineering is not a “team work”. However, it is only our misunderstanding. There are, in fact, no :matches”37 “teams”of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may 38 , obviously, there is teamwork.

Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET by drawing a thick line across the corresponding letter in the brackets. Text 1 After a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day. There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other. Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly （Although your eyelids are closed）. This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement. If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion the counting sheep will put you to sleep! 46 A good title for this passage is ____. A. Sleep C. Dreams B. Good Health D. Work and Rest 47. The word drowsy in the last paragraph means ____.
