专八翻译模拟题(英译汉)第 1 篇原文:It seems as if a great deal were attainable in a world where there are so many marriages and decisive battles, and where we all, at certain hours of the day, and with great gusto and dispatch, stow a portion of victuals finally and irretrievably into the bag which contains us.And it would seem also, on a hasty view, that the attainment of as much as possible was the one goal of man's contentious life. And yet, as regards the spirit, this is but a semblance.参考译文:在这充满联姻婚嫁、决战厮杀的世界里,每天特定时刻,我们都欣然而又迅速地把一份食物一去不返地吞入包裹我们的皮囊。

这个世界看上去似乎有很多东西都是可以得到的。

猛然看来,尽可能地获取也成为纷繁人生的唯一目标。

然而,对于精神世界来说,这只不过是表面现象。

第 2 篇原文:Picture-taking is a technique both for annexing the objective world and for expressing the singular self. Photographs depict objective realities that already exist, though only the camera can disclose them. And they depict an individual photographer’s temperament, discovering itself through the camera’s cropping of reality. That is, photography has two antithetical ideals: in the first, photography is about the world and the photographer is a mere observer who counts for little; but in the second, photography is the instrument of intrepid, questing subjectivity and the photographer is all.参考译文:照相是一种既兼并客观世界,又表达独特自我的技术。

China has announced its abolishing its one-child policy.What difference has it made,statistically speaking?400 million births preventedThe one-child policy,officially in place since 1979,has prevented 400 million births.Parents have faced fines and other punishments for having more children. The majority of the decrease in China's fertility rate happened in the1970s.It dropped from 5.8 children per woman in 1970 to 2.7 in 1978.Despitethe one-child policy the rate had only fallen to 1.7 by 2013.21:28-baby deaths rateSince the one-child policy was introduced,baby girls have become more likelyto die than boys.In the 1970s,according to the United Nations,60 males per 1,000 live births died under the age of one.For girls the figure was 53.In the 1980s,after the one-child policy became official,the rate for both was 36.By the 1990s,26males per 1,000 live births died before the age of one-and 33 girls.The 2000s saw 21 boys per 1,000 live births dying and 28 girls.1.16 boys born for every girlSexually selective abortions have been considered as a major cause of China's unusual imbalance.Gietel-Basten,associate professor in social policy at Oxford University,says the births of many girls are not registered if parents have broken the rule by having two children,adding officials often turn a blind eye.It's estimatedthere are now 33 million more men than women in China.4:2:1 familiesWith the ageing of China's population and the continuation of the one-child policy,a "4:2:1" home is the description given to households in which thereare four grandparent,cared for by two working age parents,who themselves have one child.By 2050,it's predicted that a quarter of China's population will be 65 or order.The predicted decline in the number of people of working age is thoughtto have persuaded the government to drop the one-child policy.1. When was the baby deaths rate for both boys and girls equal?A. In the 1970s.B. In the 1980s.C. In the 1990s.D. In the 2000s.2. What makes the one-child policy abolished accoring to the passage?A. The decline of birth rate.B. The rise of baby deaths rate.C. The change of family structure.D. The decline of working age people.3. The passage sums up the one child policy by___________ .A. numberB. exampleC. contrastD. analysis2. The giant Sequoia trees in California grip tightly into the floor,but with shallow root,with little depth.Constantly challenging the natural elements and fighting off destruction,the giant Sequoia is "king of the forest".These trees are so tall and strong that eventually they become their own worst enemy.For you see,the Sequoia can resist lightning, storm,and wind,but eventually their roots cannot support their own weight and strength.After hundreds or thousands of years,they tumble to the ground like giant skyscrapers that have fallen from their bases after powerful explosives are detonated(引爆).In many ways,many of us are like those giant Sequoias,so proud,so bit,so strong,withstanding wind and fire,yet not allowing our roots to seek deep into life's meaning.Many people have only shallow roots in soft ground,leaving them constantly on the edge of falling over to their destruction.The first step we should take is to anchor ourselves with the firm intentionof establishing strong roots of life and belief.We must trust the ground we stand on,and allow ourselves to plant the rich seeds of passion into ourlife's soil,nurturing it with the rain of love and joy,then allowing the fertilizer to soak into the very "veins" of the roots, leading to the trunk's healthy development.We've all seen many men with a strong trunk but noroots.They place the material dimension of wealth and finance above their own roots and foundational beliefs.They become so heavy with possessions,money,and the burden of wealth that they finally fall over as the giant Sequoia uproots itself and self-destructs.1. The Sequoia is called "king of the forest" because it___________ .A. grips tightly into the forest floorB. grows to be very tall andstrongC. lives to thousands of yearsD. looks like a skyscraper2. What does the underlined word "tumble" mean?A. Explode.B. Reach.C. Build up.D. Break down.3. The writer's purpose in introducing the Sequoia is to___________ .A. tell a life truthB. encourage struggling peopleC. show the meaning of happinessD. warn people about the danger of becoming strong4. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Life Is Rooted in A Strong Belief.B. Our Biggest Enemy Is Ourselves.C. The Meaning of Life.D. Build Firm Life Foundation.3. Many people rush into the commitment of bringing home a four-legged family member ,only to find out that they are not ready for a pet.This often resultsin the dog being turned over to a shelter where it may not find anotherhome.This can be avoided if potential pet owners take the time to figure outif they are truly ready for the responsibilities of pet ownership.Being a responsible pet owner involves a financial commitment that goesbeyond buying dog food.There are also parasite(寄生虫)prevention,boarding costs while traveling and the cost to care for the pet should it become ill or injured.That is not to say that one must be rich in order to have a dog,but it is important to be prepared for the expenses that come with being a pet owner. Another consideration is the time commitment.An owner away from home for 14 hours every day is not an ideal situation for a dog.A potential dog owner must also consider the time it takes to care for his or her pet,the time it takesto feed,walk,play with,bathe and clean up.Also,dogs require attention.Be prepared to spend time each day petting and playing with it.Dogs are dogs,and will act like dogs.This includes barking,digging,having accidents in the house and,possibly, destroying some of the owner's prized possessions,such as furniture,shoes and cell phones.If the above would causean owner to want to get rid of the dog,then he or she is not yet ready to be a pet owner.Many wonderful pets end up in shelters simply because they actedlike dogs!1. Who might be qualified to be a dog owner according to the text?A. Kari,a teacher who works eight hours a day.B. Jim,who has a daughter sensitive to dog's smell.C. Dick,a jobless teenager who can hardly pay his rent.D. Steven,a business man who travels a lot on business.2. To be a responsible dog owner you need to do all the followingEXCEPT___________ .A. buying dog food and feeding itB. taking it to hospital when necessaryC. spending time each day playing with itD. finding a shelter for it when you are bored with it3. What does the underlined part in the first paragraph probably mean?A. Rush to adopt a dog formally.B. Commit to buy a dog and take it home.C. Run into a pet shelter and take one home so quickly.D. Decide to be a pet owner without thinking about it carefully.4. What might be the best title for the text?A. Dogs Are DogsB. Ready for a Pet?C. Have Time for a Dog?D. Pets Are Family Members4. I had a great time this past summer visiting Stone Mountain Park with my twin grandsons.I had the opportunity to spend the day with them seeing the various sights and attractions.One thing that my grandsons had really wantedto do that particular day was to climb to the top of the mountain.Stone Mountain isn't a particularly tall mountain and fortunately has walking trails to the top,but for two 5-year-olds,along with grandpa,it's a formidable task. Since my grandson's enthusiasm was much greater than mine,I decided to start the slow walk up the mountain. The beginning part of the trail was slow and gradual.It seemed like we were taking forever to climb just a shortdistance,but I had to remind myself that it took 3 of their steps to equal 1of mine,so I found myself walking ahead of them,then having to stop and let them catch up,over and over again.I was tired and sweaty,just wanting to get to the top of the mountain so I could rest well before starting my way back.I learned early on during our walk that this wasn't going to be the case.We had to stop and look at every large rock with someone's name carved in it.We looked at unusual plant formations.We examined large trees and we explored small rock overhangs that reminded thekids of caves.My grandsons viewed the walk as an exciting adventure.Climbingthe mountain was a trial to me but my grandsons were not focused at all on the trial of climbing the mountain;they were simply enjoying the journey of the walk.I know when I face a trial in life,I tend to always think of the problem.I want the trial to be over quickly and let life get back to normal.What can Ilearn during the course of the trial? At some point,the trial will be over and we'll be joyous for sure.However,the real joy should not be that the trial's over,but I am celebrating what I learned during the journey.1. What does the underlined word "formidable" in Paragraph 1 mean?A. Relaxing.B. Meaningful.C. Strange.D. Difficult.2. What can we know from Paragraph 2?A. The writer kept challenging his grandsons to catch up with him.B. Old as the writer was,he walked much faster than his grandsons.C. The writer and his grandsons walked up the mountain very fast at the beginning.D. The writer was more eager to climb to the top of the mountain than his grandsons.3. Why did the writer only want to reach the mountain top?A. To have a good rest.B. To get a better view.C. To enjoy unusual plants.D. To see large rocks carved with names.4. What can be the best title of the text?A. A tiring day spent with grandsons.B. Joy coming from mountain-climbing.C. A life lesson learnt from grandsons.D. Learning to enjoy the journey.二、七选五5. 1. What we consider polite at home isn't always accepted outside our borders.Don't be regarded rude or disrespectful on your travels.Gift giving should be a happy,positive experience. 2. Giving sharp,pointy objects as gifts is considered unlucky.Be careful when presenting flowers to a friend or a business partner in Russia.Yellow blooms suggest cheat or a relationship breakup. 3. Writing cards or notes while visiting South Korea,be mindful of your pen's ink color. Writing a person's name in red ink traditionally suggests that the person has passed away.4. If you are invited to someone's home for a meal,it's recommended that you arrive 10 to 15 minutes later than the requested time.When having a meal in Egypt,don't use the salt shaker(调味瓶)which means that you find the meal terrible.Japan is a very polite nation,and their politeness extends to the mealtime use of chopsticks. According to Japanese custom,it's considered ill-mannered to point or play with chopsticks. 5. Using the end that touches your mouth is extremely offensive(冒犯的),not to mention the fact that it's unhygienic(不卫生的).A.When selecting a present in the Netherlands,don't buy kitchen knives or scissors.B.Punctuality is considered to be good manners all over the world.C.When traveling,it's important to learn about the customs of the global village.D.Red carnations(康乃馨)are usually presented to Mothers.E.While eating,use the opposite end of your chopsticks to secure food from a shared plate.F.Being early or on time is viewed as being rude in Venezuela.G.Traditionally,red carnations are placed on the tombs of the dead.三、完形填空6.

西洋人什么事都讲究按部就班地慢慢动作来,从来没有平地登天的捷径,而我们中国人专走捷径,而走捷径的第一个法门,就是吹牛。

吹牛是一件不可看轻的艺术,就如修辞学上不可缺少“张喻”一类的东西一样。

像李太白什么“黄河之水天上来”,又是什么“白发三千丈”,这在修辞学上就叫做“张喻”,而在不懂修辞学的人看来,就觉得李太白在吹牛了。

阅学生之译文,笔者发现有一个问题值得我们教师注意,即如何在动笔翻译前,能迅速正确地确定英译的主语。

如:1. 得病以前,我受父母宠爱,在家中横行霸道。

学生译文(以下简称“学译”):Before the illness, I was much petted by parents, doing everything at will in the home.学译:Before I became ill, I have received all the favor of my parents, just like a little tyrant at home.参考译文:Before I fell ill, I had been the bully under our roofs owing to my doting parents.我们知道,汉语表达大多为“意合”结构,结构松散,以一个一个看似并列的短句“拼凑而成,彼此逻辑关系不明显;但英语则不同于汉语,它是形合语言,非常讲究句子内部的逻辑关系的”外化“,所谓”外化“,即,使用Connectives来表现其逻辑关系。

我国译界有一个比喻:汉语句子的结构像”竹竿“,是一节接一节的;而英语句子则像”葡萄“,主干很短,而”挂“在上面的附加成分则很多。

专业英语八级翻译分类模拟题英译汉(四)TRANSLATIONENGLISH TO CHINESElx Prose of its very nature is longer than verse, and the virtues peculiar to it manifest themselves gradually. If the cardinal virtue of poetry is love, the cardinal virtue of prose is justice; and, whereas love makes you act and speak on the spur of the moment, justice needs inquiry, patience, and a control even of the nob lest passions. By justice here I do not mean justice only to particular people or ideas, but a habit of justice in all the processes of thought, a style tranquilized and a form moulded by that habit. The master of prose is not cold, but he will not let any word or image inflame him with a heat irrelevant to his purpose. Unhasting, unresting, he pursues it, subduing all the riches of his mind to it, rejecting all beauties that are not germane to it;making his own beauty out of the very accomplishment of it, out of the whole work and its proportions, so that you must read to the end before you know that it is beautiful. But he has his reward, for he is trusted and convinces, as those who are at the mercy of their own eloquence do not ; and he gives a pleasure all the greater for being hardly noticed. In the best prose, whether narrative or argument, we are so led on as we read, that we do not stop to applaud the writer, nor do we stop to question him.2、Let me come to the point boldly; what governs the Englishman is his inner atmosphere, the weather in his soul. It is nothing particularly spiritual or mysterious • When he has tak en his exercise and is drinking his tea or his beer and lighting his pipe; when, in his garden or by his fire, he sprawls in an aggressively comfortable chair;when well-washed and well-brushed, he resolutely turns in church to the east and recites the Creed (with genuf texions z if he likes genuflexions) without in the least implying that he believes one word of it ;when he hears or sings the most crudely sentimental and thinnest of popular songs z unmoved but not disguised; when he makes up his mind who is his best friend or his favorite poet ; when he adopts a party or a sweetheart ;when he is hunting or shooting or bopting, or striding through the fields; when he is choosing his clothes or his prof ess ion—never is it a precise reason, or purpose, or outer fact that determines him; it is always the atmosphere of his inner man.3、Every week, every employed man and woman in Britain has to pay the State a certain sum of money as a compulsory contribution for National Insurance and National Health, in return for which the State provides certain allowances and services, e.g. in times of sickness or unemployment. The contribution is deducted from salary by the employer, who normally holds a card for each of his employees on which he has to stick National Insurance Stamps boughtz from the Post Office. These stamps actually cost considera bly more than the amount paid by the employee; the employer has to pay the rest. Self-employed persons buy their own stamps at special rates.It should be noted that everyone has to pay these contributions, whether or not he has occasion to use the benefits he is entitled to. It is thus quite possible for one person, a healthy bachelor for example, to pay in more than he eventually gets out in the form of benefits;while another person, such as a sickly husband with a large family, may get out much more than he pays in. This sharing of risks is the essential feature of insurance. The advantage of insurance to everybody, healthy bachelor and sickly husband alike, is protection and security.4、This ignorance, however, is not altogether miserable. Out of it we get the constant pleasure of discovery. Every fact of nature comes to us each spring, if only we are sufficiently ignorant, with the dew still on it. If we have lived half a lifetime without having ever seen a cuckoo。

英语专八阅读理解模拟试题附带翻译及解析

英语专八阅读理解模拟试题(附带翻译及解析)考研英语阅读理解模拟试题及解析一The majority of successful senior managers do not closely follow the classical rational model of first clarifying goals, assessing the problem, formulating options, estimating likelihoods of success, making a decision, and only then taking action to implement the decision. Rather, in their day-by-day tactical maneuvers, these senior executives rely on what is vaguely termed intuition to manage a network of interrelated problems that require them to deal with ambiguity, inconsistency, novelty, and surprise;and to integrate action into the process of thinking.Generations of writers on management have recognized that some practicing managers rely heavily on intuition. In general, however, such writers display a poor grasp of what intuition is. Some see it as the opposite of rationality; others view it as an excuse for capriciousness.Isenberg's recent research on the cognitive processes of senior managers reveals that managers' intuition is neither of these. Rather, senior managers use intuition in at least five distinct ways. First, they intuitively sense when a problem exists. Second, managers rely on intuition to perform well-learned behavior patterns rapidly. This intuition is not arbitrary or irrational, but is based on years of painstaking practice and hands-on experience that build skills. A third function of intuition is to synthesize isolated bits of data and practice into an integrated picture, often in an Aha!experience. Fourth, some managers use intuition as a check on the results of more rational analysis. Most senior executives are familiar with the formal decision analysis models and tools, and those who use such systematic methods for reaching decisions are occasionally leery of solutions suggested by these methods which run counter to their sense of the correct course of action. Finally, managers can use intuition to bypass in-depth analysis and move rapidly to engender a plausible solution. Used in this way, intuition is an almost instantaneous cognitive process in which a manager recognizes familiar patterns.One of the implications of the intuitive style of executive management is that thinking is inseparable from acting. Since managers often know what is right before they can analyze and explain it, they frequently act first and explain later. Analysis is inextricably tied to action in thinking/acting cycles, in which managers develop thoughts about their companies and organizations not by analyzing a problematic situation and then acting, but by acting and analyzing in close concert.Given the great uncertainty of many of the management issues that they face, senior managers often instigate a course of action simply to learn more about an issue. They then use the results of the action to develop a more complete understanding of the issue. One implication of thinking/acting cycles is that action is often part of defining the problem, not just ofimplementing the solution.1. According to the text, senior managers use intuition in all of the following ways EXCEPT to[A] Speed up of the creation of a solution to a problem.[B] Identify a problem.[C] Bring together disparate facts.[D] Stipulate clear goals.2. The text suggests which of the following about the writers on management mentioned in line 1, paragraph 2?[A] They have criticized managers for not following the classical rational model of decision analysis.[B] They have not based their analyses on a sufficiently large sample of actual managers.[C] They have relied in drawing their conclusions on what managers say rather than on what managers do.[D] They have misunderstood how managers use intuition in making business decisions.3. It can be inferred from the text that which of the following would most probably be one major difference in behavior between Manager X, who uses intuition to reach decisions, and Manager Y, who uses only formal decision analysis?[A] Manager X analyzes first and then acts;Manager Y does not.[B] Manager X checks possible solutions to a problem by systematic analysis;Manager Y does not.[C] Manager X takes action in order to arrive at the solution to a problem;Manager Y does not.[D] Manager Y draws on years of hands-on experience in creating a solution to a problem;Manager X does not.4. The text provides support for which of the following statements?[A] Managers who rely on intuition are more successful than those who rely on formal decision analysis.[B] Managers cannot justify their intuitive decisions.[C] Managers'' intuition works contrary to their rational and analytical skills.[D] Intuition enables managers to employ their practical experience more efficiently.5. Which of the following best describes the organization of the first paragraph of the text?[A] An assertion is made and a specific supporting example is given.[B] A conventional model is dismissed and an alternative introduced.[C] The results of recent research are introduced and summarized.[D] Two opposing points of view are presented and evaluated.答案与考点解析1. 「答案」D「考点解析」这是一道归纳推导题。

即使在其一角,在一个私人花园,或一个农庄附近,四季轮回,天气瞬息万变,哪怕在那里生活了一辈子,也总会有让我们惊喜的事情。

参考译文:"Of making books there is no end," complained the Preacher; and did not perceive how highly he was praising letters as an occupation. There is no end, indeed, to making books or experiments, or to travel, or to gathering wealth. Problem gives rise to problem. We may study for ever, and we arenever as learned as we would. We have never made a statue worthy of our dreams. And when we have discovered a continent, or crossed a chain of mountains, it is only to find another ocean or another plain upon the further side. In the infinite universe there is room for our swiftest diligence and to spare. It is not like the works of Carlyle, which can be read to an end. Even in a corner of it, in a private park, or inthe neighbourhood of a single hamlet, the weather and the seasons keep so deftly changing that although we walk therefor a lifetime there will be always something new to startle and delight us.。

Tombs and temples of ancient Egypt follow the Nile well into Sudan. Driving southward from Cairo into the valley, I entered a landscape that owed little to the present era. For the next 1,800 miles the thin blue ribbon of the Nile, flowing slowly north, unwound over brown soil and green fields, some only a few yards wide, others as broad as an Iowa cornfield. At the edge of the fields, rising in dramatic hills or stretching flat to the horizon, lay the brown barren deserts. The road followed the course of the Nile, now passing through the fields, now drawing a black line separating them from the desert.

尼罗河沿岸直到苏丹境内很远的地方,到处能够见到古埃及的坟墓和寺庙。

我从开罗驱车南行,进入尼罗河河谷,这里的景色还没有受到多少现代的影响。

从这里再往前一千八百英里,尼罗河像一条细细的蓝色丝带,缓缓流向北方,沿途穿过棕色的土地和绿色的田野,这田地窄的不过几码,宽的则赶得上美国伊阿华州的玉米地。

田地外边是寸草不生的棕色沙漠,有的地方突然隆起像是小山,有的地方则平平地伸向地平线。

公路是顺着尼罗河修筑的,有时穿过庄稼地,有时像是划的一条黑线,这边是庄稼,那边是沙漠。

在中国,最重要的节日是农历新年。

因为它是依据农历而来,所以大约比阳历新年晚了一个月。

传统上,中国新年节庆约持续一个月,但为了不让工作期间中断太久,现在都已缩短为一个星期左右。

中国农历年和西方阳历年有些相似之处,譬如像大扫除、全家团圆。

所有的债务都要还清,这样新年才有个新开始。

与家人、朋友共享盛宴,街
上有栩栩如生的舞龙舞狮表演。

到处都听得到爆竹声。

小孩子们收受装了钱的红包。

The most important holiday in China is the Lunar New Year. Since it is based on the lunar calendar, it comes about a month later than the Western New Year. The Chinese New Year season traditionally lasts about a month . The period has now been reduced to a week or less. There are some parallels with the Western New Year: houses are cleaned thoroughly, for instance, and families all get together for the festivities. All debts must be paid off so that new year can be started with a fresh beginning. Feasts are enjoyed with family and friends, and there are lively dragon and lion dances in the streets. Everywhere there is the sound of fire cracker explosions. Children receive gifts of little red envelopes with money inside them.。
