我的一个好朋友最近接受了白血病测试。

她对我说,最令人痛苦的折磨就是苦苦等待测试结果的那一周时间。

我朋友说,她可能会学着直面坏结果。

但真正让人煎熬焦虑的是那种茫然的感觉。

孟克(Edvard Munch)的名画《呐喊》哈佛大学心理学家吉尔伯特(Daniel Gilbert)不久前在《纽约时报》(New York Times)的专栏中写道,不知道要发生什么坏事比知道什么坏事要发生的感觉更糟。

我们大多数人之所以会夜不能寐、抽烟发泄,并不是因为道琼斯指数要再跌1000点,而是因为我们不知道道指会不会下跌──不确定的感觉比不确定的事情本身更折磨人。

【英文】A close friend of mine recently underwent tests for leukemia. The most agonizing part of the ordeal, she said, was the week-long wait for the test results. A bad outcome she could learn to cope with, my friend said. It was the not knowing, the uncertainty, that was so difficult.'People feel worse when something bad might occur than when something bad will occur,' wrote Harvard psychologist Daniel Gilbert in a recent New York Times op-ed. 'Most of us aren't losing sleep and sucking down Marlboros because the Dow is going to fall another thousand points, but because we don't know whether it will fall or not ─ and human beings find uncertainty more painful than the things they're uncertain about.'一艘货轮卸货后在浩瀚的大海上返航时,突然遭遇了可怕的风暴。

江西财经大学考博英语翻译真题及其解析1.1997年英译汉试题及参考译文:Do animals have rights?This is how the question is usually put.It sounds like a useful,ground-clearing way to start.(71)Actually,it isnt,because it assumes that there is an agreed account of human rights,which is something the world does not have.On one view of rights,to be sure,it necessarily follows that animals have none.72)Some philosophers argue that rights exist only within a social contract,as part of an exchange of duties and entitlements.Therefore,animals cannot have rights.The idea of Geng duo yuan xiao wan zheng kao bo ying yu zhen ti ji qi jie xi qing lian xi quan guo mian fei zi xun dian hua:si ling ling liu liu ba liu jiu qi ba,huo jia zi xun qq:qi qi er liu qi ba wu san qi punishing a tiger that kills somebody is absurd,for exactly the same reason,so is the idea that tigers have ringhts.However,this is only one account,and by no means an uncontested one.It denies rights not only to animals but also to some people―for instance,to infants,the mentally incapable and future generations.In addition,it is unclear what force a contract can have for people who never consented to it:how do you reply to somebody who saysI dont like this contract?The point is this without agreement on the rights of people,arguing about the rights of animals is fruitless.(73)It leads the discussion to extremes at the outset:it invites you to think that animals should be treated either with the consideration humans extend to other humans,or with no consideration at all.This is a falsechoice.Better to start with another,more fundamental question:is the way we treat animals a moral issue at all?Many deny it.(74)Arguing from the view that humans are different from animals in every relevant respect,extremists of this kind think that animals lie outside the area of moral choice.Any regard for the suffering of animals is seen as a mistake―a sentimental displacement of feeling that should properly be directed to other humans.This view,which holds that torturing a monkey is morally equivalent to chopping wood,may seem bravelylogical.In fact it is simply shallow:the ethical equivalent of learning to crawl―is to weigh others interests against one s own.This in turn requires sympathy and imagination:without which there is no capacity for moral thought.To see an animal in pain is enough,for most,to engage sympathy.(75)When that happens,it is not a mistake:it is mankinds instinct for moral reasoning in action,an instinct that should be encouraged rather than laughed at.1997年英译汉试题参考译文:动物有权力吗?问题通常就是这样提出的。

四川大学历年考博英语翻译题答案

2004 答案1.英译汉第一次世界大战和经济大萧条迫使人们不得不重新冷静地评价来势迅猛的技术大爆炸。

一种思想派别——技术确定主义认为,现代社会再也不是19世纪及20世纪初期的工业年头了。

先进电子技术所带来的困难的社会技术网络已经使国家的政府机构,资本主义性质的公司和人口拥挤的城市失去原有的作用。

2.汉译英Moon gazing is an ancient art. To prehistoric hunters their understanding of the moon overhead was a unerring as heartbeat. They knew that every 29 days it became full-bellied and brilliant, then sickened and died, and then was the reborn. They knew that the waxing moon appeared larger and higher overhead after each succeeding sunset while the waning moon rose later each night until it vanished in the sunrise.2003 答案1.英译汉:如今,城市化比以前任何时候都更有影响。

它是世界性的,到处都可以感受到它的影响。

结合国的统计数字说明,在约30年的时间里,全世界过半的人口将住在城市里。

这是个具有深远意义的转变,或许是人类史的一个重要里程碑并将以如今无法想象的方式去影响着人类和大自然。

整个人类的定居史都与地形学和资源有着亲密的联络。

直到几个世纪之前,人类定居形式还是主要由农业、渔业、采矿业、水利和国防而定。

城镇和村落相继开展成了商业和市场中心,效劳于落后地区。
