10月翻译资格二级英语口译实务试卷及答案
10月翻译资格二级英语口译实务试卷及答案The Certificate of English Interpretation: Level ⅡNow please listen to the instructions for this exam. I'll give you a brief introduction before each part of the exam begins and leave you enough time to do the interpreting.Each part is divided into a number of segments and at the start of each segment you will hear this tone. At each pause where you are expected to start interpreting, you'll also hear this tone .You'll hear each segment only once.Let's start with Part 1.Part 1 Consecutive Interpretation: English to ChineseIn this part you will hear a speech delivered in English by an American official at the Seminal" onInternational Trade Conflict and Public Relations. Please interpret this speech into Chinese.Let's begin.Ladies and Gentlemen,Recent polls show that the majority of Americans actually do believe that Sino-American relationship, bothpolitically and economically, is vitally important. Please allow me to offer some suggestions on what we can dotogether to cultivate our relationship, and to continue the progress of the last years so that we can work towardseducating our policymakers and citizens about the benefits of free trade to our economies.First, we must seek out opportunities to continue the exchange of views between our two countries.We must encourage students to study abroad--here I must admit we have a much harder time to getAmericans to travel than our friends in China. We should also urge the exchanges of academics,scientists and artists.Second, we need more exchange of business leaders. I recall the Fortune Global Forum that was held inShanghai in 1999, where more than 800 representatives, including 300 Chairmen, presidents and CEOs fromthe world's leading multinationals came to China to meet with over 200 Chinese entrepreneurs to exchangeopinions and share the experiences that affect their businesses.Third, I would urge you to come to the United States to learn about the factors thatshape Americanthinking and the formulation of its policies. Ask your friends and contacts to make introductions for you tomeet with business leaders and policymakers.Fourth, explore opportunities to invest in the United States. American legislators respond to nothingmore than to their constituents. Many of you already have subsidiaries in the US Here, the Haier Groupcomes to mind. Haier has invested over $15 million in a building in New York and over $40 million inCamden, South Carolina, employing significant numbers of Americans. We need to work together tomake sure that policymakers understand that our bilateral trade relationship is beneficial to both of oureconomies. This is a pattern that the Japanese used in the 1970s and 1980s to develop markets as well asto exert influence.Finally, we should work together to make the APEC viable again. We defined in 1994 that we would reach free trade among many APEC nations by the year 2005. We have lost momentum. China and the USshould work together to reinvigorate the APEC process.Let me conclude by saying that Sino-American relations are the best they have ever been. We have beenable to collaborate on important political and security matters that are vital to the well-being of our peoples.Our economic interests are closely linked as well. China and the US both seek economic growth and stability.Although we may choose to pursue our interests through different policies, we strive to liberalize our marketsand provide businesses with transparent and predictable access for goods and services.The stability of our relations is much like the stability of a three-legged stool. The legs consist ofstrategic, political, and economic relations. If anyone of the legs is either missing or weak, the stool isunstable and is in danger of collapsing. It is our responsibility to maintain the strength of these legs.That's the end of Part 1. Now we move on to Part 2.Part 2 Consecutive Interpretation: Chinese to EnglishIn this part you will hear a speech delivered in Chinese by a Chinese official at the 2005 Fortune GlobalForum. Please interpret this speech into English.Let's begin.尊敬的来宾，女士们，先生们：早上好! 我很高兴来参加《财富》全球论坛，也很荣幸在此与大家交流一下我的看法。
2008年5、11月翻译资格考试二级笔译真题
2008 年 5 月翻译资格考试二级笔译真题第一部分英译汉必译题If a heavy reliance on fossil fuels makes a country a climate ogre, then Denmark —with its thousands of wind turbines sprinkled on the coastlines and at sea — is living a happy fairy tale.Viewed from the United States or Asia, Denmark is an environmental role model. The country is "what a global warming solution looks like," wrote Frances Beinecke, the president of the Natural Resources Defense Council, in a letter to the group last autumn. About one-fifth of the country's electricity comes from wind, which wind experts say is the highest proportion of any country.But a closer look shows that Denmark is a far cry from a clean-energy paradise. The building of wind turbines has virtually ground to a halt since subsidies were cut back. Meanwhile, compared with others in the European Union, Danes remain above-average emitters of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide. For all its wind turbines, a large proportion of the rest of Denmark's power is generated by plants that burn imported coal.The Danish experience shows how difficult it can be for countries grown rich on fossil fuels to switch to renewable energy sources like wind power. Among the hurdles are fluctuating political priorities, the high cost of putting new turbines offshore, concern about public acceptance of large wind turbines and the volatility of the wind itself."Europe has really led the way,"said Alex Klein, a senior analyst with Emerging Energy Research, a consulting firm with offices in Cambridge, Massachusetts.Some parts of western Denmark derive 100 percent of their peak needs from wind if the breeze is up. Germany and Spain generate more power in absolute terms, but in those countries wind still accounts for a far smaller proportion of the electricity generated. The average for all 27 European Union countries is 3 percent.But the Germans and the Spanish are catching up as Denmark slows down. Of the thousands of megawatts of wind power added last year around the world, only 8 megawatts were installed in Denmark.If higher subsidies had been maintained, he said, Denmark could now be generating close to one-third — rather than one-fifth — of its electricity from windmills.韩老师参考译文：如果一个国家因严重依赖化石燃料而成为导致气候变化的恶魔的话，那么丹麦这个拥有数千个沿海和海上风力发电机组的国家算得上是生活在童话里的幸福国度了。

The level of interest and attendance recognizes the Fair's importance and high standing with the international investment community. I congratulate MOEFEC and all those concerned with organizing the Fair, including of course the Xiamen authorities. // When I was here last year we were on the threshold of China's entry to WTO. This year membership is a reality. That is one of the most significant developments to occur on the world stage in recent times. It takes a huge step furthering the process of integrating China into the world economy. There will be difficulties for Chinese companies and their employees in some sectors, particularly the SOEs, in adjusting to international competition. That is inevitable. But I believe that once those transitional difficulties are overcome, the positive benefits for China and for world trade will be immense.I admire the courage and the vision of China's leaders and people in picking up this challenge. // This year's theme is the role of international investment in creating a competitive advantage. In Britain we are thoroughly persuaded of that role. Our experience of inward investment is wholly positive. Total inward investment to the UK has now reached some~500 billion. It has created nearly 160,000 new jobs in Britain in the last three years alone. It has helped us develop and modernize our industrial base. It has introduced new products and processes. It has brought in technology and management expertise. No wonder we are whole-heartedly in favor of it! // Inward investment did not just come to us by chance. We had to work hard to create the right climate for it. Why did countries choose to invest in Britain? We are a stable country. We have a strong rule of law. We have a minimum of red tape for foreign investors. We freed up our market more than our continental European neighbors. We kept our labor costs low. We treated foreign investors and domestic producers equally. We do not mind who owns a company, so long as the business and the jobs are in Britain. // But one factor counts above all others: investment in Britain is profitable for the investor as well as beneficial for our country. That is the single most important reason why we have attracted for instance 45 percent of all Japanese inward investment in Europe and 60 percent of all Korean investment in Europe. // We hope before long to attract significant investment from China as well. To help do that we are going to spread the news in China of just how creative and innovative the British economy now is. We shall be organizing an important campaign of exhibitions and events in China this year with more to come in 2003 under the title: Britain—the Leading Edge. I hope many of you will visit the first events in Shanghai next month. // British companies know the China market well and remain keen to invest there and the China- Britain Business Council of which I am President gives them every encouragement and help to do so. Both our trade and our investment are at record levels and Britain is Europe's largest investor in China by a very considerable margin. Recent examples have included BP's investment in China's oil and gas industry and Shell's commitment to invest in the East and West oil pipeline. // I have every confidence that willingness to invest will continue so long as British firms see steady improvement in market conditions and access. There are people who oppose foreign investment, arguing that it means exporting British jobs. But that is a shortsighted view. // In a global economy, emerging markets will always be able to produce well-educated and highly-trainable workers at far lower cost than in the UK. We know that the right answer is not to inhibit foreign investment but instead to move our own economic activity towards high technology and knowledge- based industries. That is exactly what we are doing. // ("International Investment Creates an International Competitive Advantage", by Lord Charles Powell, President of the China-Britain Business Council at Xiamen InternationalInvestment Fair, September 8, 2002)（分数：2.00）__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案：()解析：我很高兴再次参加厦门国际投资贸易洽谈会。

英语二笔翻译真题2008年11月
2008年11月英语二级《笔译实务》试题Section 1: English-Chinese Translation（英译汉）Part A Compulsory Translation（必译题）Mangoes in Africa, as elsewhere, often fall prey tofruit flies, which destroy about 40% of thecontinents crop. In fact, fruit flies are so common in African mangoes that America has bannedtheir import altogether, to protect its own orchards. African farmers, meanwhile, have fewpractical means to defend their fruit. Chemical pesticides are expensive. And even for thosewho can afford them they are not that effective since, by the time a farmer spots aninfestation, it is too late to spray. Agricultural scientists have also looked at controlling fruit flieswith parasitic wasps. But the most common ones kill off only about one fly in 20, leaving plentyof survivors to go on the rampage. Lethal traps baited with fly-attracting pheromones areanother option. But they, too, are expensive. Instead, most farmers simply harvest their fruitearly, when it is not yet fully ripe. This makes it less vulnerable to the flies, but also less valuable. Farmers whose trees are teeming with worker ants, however, do not need to bother with any of this. In a survey of several orchards in Benin, Dr van Mele and his colleagues foundan average of less than one fruit-fly pupa in each batch of 30 mangoes from trees where workerants were abundant, but an average of 77 pupae in batches from trees without worker ants.The worker ants, it turns out, are very thorough about hunting down and eating fruit flies, aswell as a host of other pests. Worker ants have been used for pest control in China and otherAsian countries for centuries. The practice has also been adopted in Australia. But Dr van Meleargues that it is particularly suited to Africa since worker ants are endemic to the mango-growing regions of the continent, and little training or capital is needed to put them to work. Allyou need do is locate a suitable nest and run string from it to the trees you wish to protect.The ants will then quicklyn find their way to the target. Teaching a group of farmers in BurkinaFaso to use worker ants in this way took just a day, according to Dr van Mele. Those farmersno longer use pesticides to control fruit flies, and so are able to market their mangoesas organic to eager European consumers, vastly increasing their income. The ants, so to speak,are on the march.Part B Optional Translation（二选一题）Topic 1 （选题一）暂无，我们会尽快补充试题。

2008年10月英语二级口译证书考试真题及参考译文试题The Certificate of English Interpretation: Level ⅡNow please listen to the instructions about this exam. I'll give you abrief introduction before each part of the exam begins and leave you enough time to do the interpreting.Each part is divided into a number of segments and at the start of each segment you will hear this tone [TONE]. At each pause where you are expected to start interpreting, you'll also hear this tone [TONE]. You'llhear each segment only once.Let's start with Part 1.Part 1 Consecutive Interpretation: English to ChineseIn this part you will hear a speech delivered in English by Princess Cristina to the Second WorldAssembly on Ageing. Please interpret this speech into Chinese.Let's begin. [TONE]Ladies and Gentlemen,It is my pleasure to address you as a United Nations Goodwill Ambassador to this Second WorldAssembly on Ageing, an honour which I truly welcome, and one which has provided me with an excellentopportunity to promote awareness of ageing. I congratulate the Secretary-General of the United Nations, thechairmen and the executive heads of the organizations of the United Nations system on their excellent work,the Chairman and Vice-Chairmen of the Preparatory Committee on their dedication, and the many individualswho have helped to make this Second World Assembly possible. [TONE]∥[TONE]We are honoured to be hosting this world event in Spain. Our interest stems from our realization thatthe ageing of the population presents a challenge for which we must prepare ourselves and that we must beready to take advantage of the abilities of older persons. Therefore, in offering to be the host country, Spainwished to demonstrate its interest in policies for the integration of older persons and to give impetus to aninnovative debate in our society. [TONE]∥[TONE]We are living through a period of major demographic change. The elderly are ever more numerous.That people are living longer and under better conditions, as a result of social progress, is one of humanity'sgreatest achievements. Older persons are a universal force with the potential to transform the future. Thisglobal transformation is going to affect individuals, families, communities and virtually every area of society.[TONE]∥[TONE]Accordingly, we must prepare ourselves for this new challenge by promoting changes in attitude towardsthis demographic revolution, which is taking place because of the increase in the number of older personsin the world. Achieving a society for all ages involves analysing society from a broader perspective andhighlights the role played by relations between the various generations making up society. Solidarity betweenthe generations in all areas of family, community and national life is essential for social cohesion. [TO NE]∥[TONE] We younger people must be increasingly aware that, in order to move forward in building a more just society, we must recognize the advances made by older generations and value their experience and currentabilities appropriately. At the same time, we must be able to transmit such values to cominggenerations.Inter-generational solidarity is a natural setting within which encounter, learning and exchange take placeamong individuals. It offersadvantages to all and helps in achieving a more integrated society.[TONE]∥[TONE]Together we will build a positive image of ageing, which should involve not simply prolonging life, but also ensuring that old age is healthy, independent, active and fully integrated in society. Ageing should be seen as astage in life during which men and women can still develop their skills, as active agents in our societies, in whichthey should continue to participate as full citizenswith full social recognition. [TONE]∥[TONE]I hope that all the proposals that result from this World Assembly will enable our society to face the challenges posed by the ageing of the population, and that they will be translated into practice by the greatestpossible numberof countries in such a way that older persons will benefit from them as soon as possible.Thank you. [TONE]∥[TONE]That's the end of Part 1. Now we move on to Part 2.Part 2 Consecutive Interpretation: Chinese to EnglishIn this part you will hear a speech delivered by a Chinese official on China 'S environmental protection and development policy at an international conference. Please interpret this speech into English.Let's begin. [TONE]女士们，先生们：早上好!很荣幸参加此次论坛，与各位共同探讨环保与发展方面的问题。
