Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.Ban sugary drinks that will add fuel to the obesity war[A] On a train last Thursday, I sat opposite a man who was so fat he filled more than one seat. He was pale and disfigured and looked sick to death, which he probably was: obesity(肥胖的)leads to many nasty ways of dying. Looking around the carriage, I saw quite a few people like him,including a couple of fatty children with swollen checkspressing against their eyes. These people are part of what is without exaggeration an epidemic(流行病)of obesity.[B] But it is quite unnecessary: there is a simple idea- far from new- that could spare millions of such people a lifetime of chronic(长期的)ill health, and at the same time save the National Health Service(NHS)at least £14 billion a year in England and Wales. There would, you might think, be considerable public interest in it. This simple idea is that sugar is as good- or as bad- as poison and should be avoided. It is pure, white and deadly, as Professor John Yudkin described it 40 years ago in a revolutionary book of that name. The subtitle was How Sugar Is Killing Us.[C] In its countless hidden forms, in ready meals, junk food and sweet drinks, sugar leads to addiction(瘾), to hormonal upsets to the appetite, to metabolic(新陈代谢的)malfunctions and obesity and from there to type 2 diabetes(糖尿病)and its many horrible complication. If people really grasped that, they would try to kick the habit, particularly as Britain i s the “ fat man of Europe” . They might even feel driven to support government measures to prevent people from consuming this deadly stuff. Yet so far this idea has met little but resistance.[D] It is not difficult to imagine the vested interests(既得利益集团)lined up against any sugar control- all the food and drink manufacturers, processors, promoters and retailers who make such easy pickings out of the magic powers of sugar. Then there are the liberals, with whom I would normally side, who protest that government regulation would be yet another instance of interference in our lives.[E]That is true, but people should realize that you cannot have a welfare state without a nanny state(保姆国家), to some degree. If we are all to be responsible for one another’s healt hinsurance, through socialized medicine, then we are all closely involved in one another’s health, including everyone’s eating and drinking. That has already been admitted, finally, with smoking. But it has yet to be admitted with overeating, even though one in four adults in this country is obese and that number is predicted to double by the year 2050.Quite apart from anything else, obesity will cripple the NHS.[F]Recently, though, there have been signs that the medical establishment is trying to sound the alarm. Last month the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges(AMRC)published a report saying that obesity is the greatest public health issue affecting the UK and urging government to do something.[G]The report offers 10 recommendations, of which the first is imposing a tax of 20 percent on sugary drinks for at least a year, on top of the existing 20 percent value-added tax. That at least would be an excellent start. The amounts of sugar in soft drinks are horrifying, and turn straight to fat. As Professor Terence Stephenson, head of the AMRC, has said, sugary soft drinks are “the ultimate bad food. You are just consuming neat sugar. Your body didn’t evolve to handle this kind of thing.”[H]Precisely. The risks of eating too much fat or salt(which are very different)pale into insignificant compared with the harm done by sugar. And it is everywhere.[I]It is difficult to buy anything in a supermarket, other than plain, unprepared meat, f ish or vegetables, that doesn’t have a large amount of sugar in it. This has come about because the prevailing scientific views of the 1960s and 1970s ignored the evidence about sugar, and instead saw fat as the really serious risk, both to the heart and other organs, as well as the cause of obesity.[J]The fashion was to avoid fat. But finding that food with much of its fat removed is not very appetizing, food producers turned to sugar as a magic alternative flavor enhancer, often in the forms of syrups(糖浆)that had recently been developed from corn, and put it generously into most prepared foods and soft drinks.[K]This stuff is not just fattening. It is addictive. It interferes with the body’s metabolism, possibly via the activity of an appetite-controlling hormone. There’s plenty of evidence for this, for those who will accept the truth.[L]Theoretically, people ought to make “healthy choices” and avoid overeating. But sugar additives are not easy to identify and are hard to avoid. So the snacking, over-drinking and over eating that makes people fat is not really their own fault: obesity is in large part something that is being done to them. It should be stopped, or rather the government should stop it.[M]Going round my local supermarket, I am constantly astonished that it is still legal to sell all the poisons stacked high on the shelves. The problem is that they are worse than useless. They are poisonous. They are known to be addictive. They are known to make people obese. And giving small children sweet drinks or bottles of fake juice all day long is nothing less than child abuse.[N]Clearly, the sale of such stuff ought to be illegal. I hate to think of yet more government regulation. But a bit of tax on sweet soda and a little more health education, a bit of cooking in schools and banning vending machines(自动售货机)here and there —as suggested try the AMRC report —is not going to achieve very much. Labelling is quite inadequate. What is needed is legislation banning high levels of sugary syrups used in foodsand drinks.[O]In June 2012, the then minister for public health said the government was not scared of the food industry and had not ruled out legislation, because of the costs of obesity to the NHS. However, nothing has happened yet. Why not have another Jammie Dodger biscuit and forget about it.46、Avoiding over-consumption of sugar can improve people’s health aswell as save medical expenses.47、Laws should be passed to make it illegal to produce overly sweet foodsor drinks.48、Giving small children sweet juices to drink all the time is equal tochild abuse.59、Looking around, the author found obesity quite widespread. 50、The number of obese people is expected to increase quickly in the nextfew decades.51、 If people really understood the horrible consequences of sugary foodsand drinks, they would support government measures against sugarconsumption.52、It would be a very good beginning wo improve an additional tax on sugarydrinks.53、The government has not yet taken any action to regulate sugar consumption although it indicated its intention to do so some time ago.54、Sugar is far more harmful to health than fat and salt.55、Consumers of sweet foods are not really to blame because they cannottell what food is sugary.Section CDirections:There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C)and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage oneThe rise of the Internet has been one of the most transformative developments in human history, comparable in impact to the invention of the printing press and the telegraph. Over two billion people worldwidenow have access to vastly more information than ever before, and can communicate with each other instantly, often using Web-connected mobile devices they carry everywhere. But the Internet’s tremendous impacts has only just begun.“Mass adoption of the Internet is driving one of the most exciting social, cultural, and political transformations in history, and unlike earlier periods of change, this time the effects are fully global,” Schmidt and Cohen write in their new book. The New Digital Age.Perhaps the most profound changes will come when the five billion people worldwide who currently lack Internet access get online. The authors do an excellent job of examining the implications of the Internet revolution for individuals, governments, and institutions like the news media. But if thebook has one major shortco ming, it’s that authors don’t spend enough time applying a critical eye to the role of Internet businesses in these weeping changes.In their book, the authors provide the most authoritative volume to date that describes —and more importantly predicts —how the Internet will shape our lives in the coming decades. They paint a picture of a world in which individuals, companies, institutions, and governments must deal with two realities, one physical, and one virtual.At the core of the book is the ide a that “technolog y is neutral, but people aren’t.” By using this concept as a starting point, the authors aim to move beyond the now familiar optimist vs. pessimist dichotomy(对立观点)that has characterized many recent debates about whether the rise of the Internet will ultimately be good or bad for society. In an interview with TIME earlier this week, Cohen said although he and his co-author are optimistic about many aspects of the Internet, they’re also realistic about the risks and dangers that lie ahead when the next five billion people come online, particularly with respect to personal privacy and state surveillance(监视).56、In what way is the rise of the Internet similar to the invention of the printing press and the telegraph?A.It transforms human history.B.It facilitates daily communication.C.It is adopted by all humanity.D.It revolutionizes people's thinking.57、How do Schmidt and Cohen describe the effects of the Internet?A.They are immeasurable.B.They are worldwide.C.They are unpredictable.D.They are contaminating.58、In what respect is the book The New Digital Age considered inadequate?A.It fails to recognize the impact of the Internet technology.B.It fails to look into the social implications of the Internet.C.It lacks an objective evaluation of the role of Internet businesses.D.It does not address the technical aspects of Internet communication.59、What will the future be like when everybody gets online?A.People will be living in two different realities.B.People will have equal access to information.C.Pe ople don’t have to travel to see the world.D.People don’t have to communicate face to face.60、What does the passage say about the authors of The New Digital Age?A.They leave many questions unanswered concerning the Internet.B.They are optimistic about the future of the Internet revolution.C.They have explored the unknown territories of the virtual world.D.They don’t take sides in analyzing the effects of the Interne t.Passage twoIn 1950, a young man would have found it much easier than it is today to get and keep a job in the auto industry. And in that year the average autoworker could meet monthly mortgage(抵押贷款)payments on an average home with just 13.4 percent of histake-home pay. Today a similar mortgage would claim more than twice that share of his monthly eamings.Other members of the autoworker’s family, however might be less inclined to tried the present for the past. His retired parents would certainly have had less economic security back then. Through-out much of the 1960s,more than a quarter of men and women and women age 65 and older lived below the poverty level, compared to less than 10 percent in 2010.In most stales, his wife could not have taken out a loan or a card in her own name. In 42 states, a homemaker had no legal claim on the earnings of her husband. And nowhere did a wife have legal protection against family violence.Most black workers would not want to return to a time when, on average they earned 40 percent less than their white counterparts(职位相当的人),white racially restrictive agreements largely prevented them from buying into the suburban neighborhoods being built for white working–class families.Today, new problems have emerged in the process of resolving old ones, but the solution is not to go back to the past. Some people may long for an era when divorce was still hard to come by. The spread of no -fault divorce has reduced the bargaining power of whichever spouse is more interested in continuing the relationship. And the breakup of such marriages has caused pain for many families.The growing diversity of family life comes with new possibilities as well as new challenges. According to a recent poll, more than 80 percentof Americans believe that their current family is as close as the one in which they grew up, or closer. Finding ways toimaginary golden age.61、What do we learn about American autoworkers in 1950?A.They had less job security than they do today.B.It was not too difficult for them to buy a house.C.Their earnings were worth twice as much as today.D.They were better off than workers in other industries.62、What does the author about retired people today?A.They invariably long to return to the golden past.B.They do not depend so much on social welfare.C.They feel more secure economically than in the past.D.They are usually unwilling to live with their children.63、Why couldn’t black workers buy a house in a whitc suburba n neighborhood ?A.They lacked the means of transportation.B.They were subjected to racial inequality.C.They were afraid to break the law.D.They were too poor to afford it.64、What is the result of no-fault divorce ?A.Divorce is easier to obtain.B.Domestic violence is lessened.C.It causes little pain to either side.D.It contributes to social unrest.65 、What does the author suggest society do?A.Get prepared to face any new challenges.B.Try to better the current social security.C.Narrow the gap between blacks and whites.D.Improve the lives of families with problemsPart IV TranslationDirections: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English.

考拉进阶CET-4历年真题阅读译文(2014.12—2010.06)2014年12月四级真题(第一套)Passage One纽约人渐渐习惯了更多的人骑着闪亮的蓝色花旗自行车。

但当地的自行车商店怎么看呢?花旗自行车是不是在使它们受损的情况下来增加骑行的人呢?在翠贝卡区的Gotham Bikes,经理W. Ben说,该店的整体销量因自行车共享计划而上升。

“它让更多的人上路,”他说。

格拉姆西区Danny’s Cycles的雇员James Ryan也说花旗自行车是一个不错的选择,它让人们逐步适应在一个以交通堵塞和野蛮司机闻名的城市里骑车。

“他们不用买自行车就可以试骑,”他说。

租赁既不是Gotham Bikes也不是Danny’s Cycles的主营业务。

但对Frank’s Bike Shop ——电商网站Grand St.上的一个小店——来说,自行车共享计划却是坏消息。

店主Frank Arroyo说,自从上个月花旗自行车正式推出,他的租赁业务下降了90%。

Arroyo的主要租客是欧洲游客,他们从此就被花旗自行车吸引走了。

然而Ben说,自行车共享对他的店铺的自行车销售来说却是有益的。

“人们用了自行车共享并意识到在城市里骑自行车有多棒,然后决定为自己买更好的自行车,”他指出。

Waterfront Bicycle Shop位于克里斯多福街以北的西街,该店的Christian Farrell 说,他最初很担忧自行车共享,但他承认,“我很高兴看到人们骑自行车。

”Andrew Crooks有着和Farrell早期一样的担忧。

他是位于第二大街64号的NYC Velo 的店主。

“它看起来是一个好主意,但却很难实施,”Crooks这样评价花旗自行车。

他说他很担忧经验不足的骑行者缺乏对骑行规定的认识以及来自不骑车的人的强烈反对。

然而,他说,现在说他的生意受到影响还为时尚早。

虽然自行车共享很可能会造成生意下滑,但Crooks承认,这种想法对纽约市来说是向前迈出了积极的一步。

2.大熊猫是一种温顺的动物,长着独特的黑白皮毛。

因其数量稀少,大熊猫已被列为濒危物种。

大熊猫对于世界自然基金会有着特殊的意义。

自1961年该基金会成立以来,大熊猫就一直是它的徽标。

大熊猫是熊科中最稀有的成员,主要生活在中国西南部的森林里。

目前,世界上大约有1000只大熊猫。

这些以竹为食的动物正面临许多威胁。

因此,确保大熊猫的生存比以往更重要。

3.中国的互联网社区是全世界发展最快的,2010年,中国约有4.2亿网民,而且人数还在迅速增长。

互联网的日渐流行带来了重大的社会变化。

中国网民往往不同于美国网民。

美国网民更多的是受实际需要的驱使,用互联网为工具发电子邮件、买卖商品、做研究、规划旅程或付款。

中国网民更多是出于社交原因使用互联网,因而更广泛的使用论坛、博客、聊天室等等。

4.假日经济的现象表明:中国消费者的消费观正在发生巨大变化。

根据统计数据,中国消费者的消费需求正在从基本生活必需品转向对休闲、舒适和个人发展的需求。

同时,中国人的消费观在蓬勃发展的假日经济中正变得成熟。

因此产品结构应做相应调整,来适应社会的发展。

另一方面,服务质量要改善,以满足人们提高生活质量的要求。

As an Alaskan fisherman. Timothy June, 54, used to think that he was safe from industrial pollutants (污染物)at his home in Haines-a town with a population of 2,400 people and 4,000 eagles, with 8 million acres of protected wild land nearby. But in early 2007, June agreed to take part in a 36 of 35 Americans from seven states. It was a biomonitoring project, in which people’s blood and urine(尿)were tested for 37 of chemicals-in this case, three potentially dangerous classes of compounds found in common household 38 like face cream, tin cans, and shower curtains. The results- 39 in November in a report called “Is It in Us?” by an environmental group-were rather worrying. Every one of the participants, 40 from an Illinois state senator to a Massachusetts minister, tested positive for all three classes of pollutants. And while the 41 presence of these chemicals does not 42 indicate a health risk, the fact that typical Americans carry these chemicals at all 43 June and his fellow participants.Clearly, there are chemicals in our bodies that don’t 44 there. Ongoing study conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has found 148 chemicals in Americans of all ages. And in 2005, the Environmental Working Group found an 45 of 200 chemicals in the blood of 10 new-borns. “Our babies are being born pre-polluted,” Says Sharyle Patton of Commonweal, which cosponsored “Is It in Us?” “This is going to be the next big environmental issue after climate change.”今天我跟大家讲两篇翻译,第一的主题是旅游,第二的主题是大熊猫,这两篇文章和我之前在课上所说的思路非常像。

2014年12月四级翻译,新东方名师逐句解析翻译思路(熊猫)
新东方在线卢根
2014年12月大学英语四级考试刚刚结束,新东方在线、北京新东方四、六级名师团队第一时间通过酷学网平台对上午的四级考试进行了直播点评。

以下是卢根老师对四级翻译进行的逐句解析,供广大考生参考。

2014年12月四级翻译原文一:
大熊猫是一种温顺的动物,长着独特的黑白皮毛。

因其数量极少,大熊猫已被列为濒危物种。

大熊猫对于世界自然基金会有着特殊意义。

自1961年该基金会成立以来,大熊猫就一直是它的徽标。

大熊猫是熊科中最稀有的成员,主要生活在中国西南部的森林里。

目前,世界上大约有1000只大熊猫。

这些以竹为食的动物正面临许多威胁。

因此,确保大熊猫的生存比以往更重要。

新东方在线卢根老师深度解析:
“大熊猫是一种温顺的动物,长着独特的黑白皮毛。

”这个句子我讲过非常类似的句子。

我说的这个句子是“大熊猫是一种生活在四川山区,并以竹子为主要食物的动物。

”这个时候也就相当于动物的定语比较长,大家看一个这个动物就是有一个定语的,第一叫温顺的动物,第二叫长着独特皮毛的动物。

这样的话就可以按照这个语序,“温顺的”找一个形容词。

我先说一下最好的词叫做tame,倘若大家不会你们就写可爱的动物,lovable lovely adorable 都可以。

再强调一下,出现这种小错误永远是一个小错,结构上不要犯错。

比如说最后这个定语,希望大家看懂,这个定语是“长着独特的黑白皮毛”其实就是with unique fur,有独特的皮毛,with unique fur,独特的叫unique,不会写你就写special,黑白皮毛你可以写black and white fur,动物的毛皮用的是fur,这个我在词汇课是说过。

如果实在不会写你写一个hair,他也知道你是毛发,也说的过去。

如果你写skin这个就是皮肤了,就不太准备,但还勉强过的去,我认为是一个错会错误不是结构错误。

结构比单词重要。

“因其数量稀少,大熊猫已经被列为濒危物种。

”因其数量稀少,就是因为,Because of the small numbers,小的数量,少的数量,small numbers,大熊猫已被列为is listed。

被列为:is listed as…。

被列为“濒危物种”,这是整篇文章中特别难的词。

我先说一个最好的写法,endangered species,濒危物种,危险的物种,这里是一个固定写法。

你要是不会写的话了你如果写了一个dangerous species,危险的动物,我会知道你词汇的误用,我会稍微扣一点分,这是个小错。

被列为这是整个句子的结构,要写对。

大熊猫被对于世界自然基金会有一个专有名词,这个不用管了。

大熊猫对于一个东西有着特殊的意义,主干是什么?很明显这个句子的主干是大熊猫有特殊的意义。

大熊猫has a special meaning,特殊的意义,对WWF,to WWF,往后说就可以了,状语后置。

自从1961年该基金会成立以来大熊猫就是它的徽标,“自从”大家马上想到since,但是我说过since是介词,既然是介词后面就得写名词结构。

那就是自从它的成立,并不是自从基金会,是自从成立,那就是Since the founding of WWF。

或者写Since the founding of the found,随着基金的成立,the giant panda一直是,“一直”是has been its symbol 是它的标志,是它的象征。

徽标这个词很难的,你直接写its symbol其实可以。

“象征”是symbol,动词是symbolize。

大熊猫是熊科中最稀有的成员,最稀有is the rarest。

然后说in bear animals熊科就可以了,in bear species熊的物种当中。

其实这些词我都不是特别看重你有没有写对,就看重你熊科这是状语,往后放,大熊猫是最稀有的,我就看重中你这个。

再接下来,主要生活在中国西南部的森林里。

这就是我之前说过的主要生活在四川山区的动物,那么这里就是一个非限制性定语从句。

生活在四川,生活在中国西南部的森林里的成员或者说的动物。

那么这里我们说which lives in森林of西南部of China.which是主语,lives是谓语。

如果你不会写你就可以写成员跟生活是主动,是现在,我们直接写living in the forest of south-west of China,这是可以的,定语是后置的。

再往下看这个看非常短,目前nowadays当今世界上大约有一千只大熊猫。

“有”字句我说过就三种写法,够用了,there be句型、have、with绝对够用了。

那就是There are 1000 pandas in the whole world,there be 句型,完整的一个句子。

最后一个句子,“这些以竹子食的动物正面临许多威胁”,“正面临许多威胁”,are underthreat在威胁之下。

那么这里以竹子为食物,你想想是不是加在动物的右边?those animals,以竹子为主要食物,mainly eating bamboo are under threat.在威胁之下。

因此逗号隔开很明显,这是一个副词,因此thus,或者是therefore,副词。

确保大熊猫的生存比以往更重要,这个时候很多学生喜欢滥用词。

大家注意到没有?确保什么什么的生存,意思就是确保生存,是不是做主语?做主语就得名词化,名词化你要么说to ensure,要么说ensuring,这是动词做主语,千万别按照中文语序一个词一个词往上写,为什么不把整个句子看完再翻呢?假设学生不会,我也有一个办法,简化啊,直接就是大熊猫的生存比以往更重要,直接说它的生存。

生存你要写的好一点叫做survival,the survival of panda这是最好的写法。

倘若大家不会实在不会就是生活的,the living of panda,也还过的去,关键是结构是正确的,比以往更重要,那就是最重要,is much more important than ever before,就是than before的意思,加一个副词ever比以往跟重要。

这是我对整篇文章解析,大家看一下完整的一篇答案。

Giant panda is a kind of tame animal with unique black and white fur. Because of the small numbers, panda is listed as endangered species. Panda has a special meaning toward the WWF. Since the founding of the fund in 1961, panda has been its symbol. Panda, which lives in the forest of the south-west of China, is the rarest in bear species. Nowadays, there are approximately 1000 pandas in the world. These animals whose food is mainly bamboo are under serious threat. Thus, the survival of panda is much more important than ever before.
这是这整篇文章的翻译。

所以希望大家一定要关注新东方在线的课程,我们强调的是简化、拆分、组合,所以看到中文词汇不会写就简化,看到中文就拆分成主谓宾定状补这六个格子,最后按照英语的方式组合英语,这个翻译的法则简单到不能再简单,希望大家明白我们翻译的核心思想。

最后,新东方在线四六级辅导团队祝大家考试顺利。
