[hide][/hide]1991年上外研究生翻译考试真题Translate the following passage into Chinese.(25%)Thus far, our holiday has been simply a friendly sign of the survival of the love of letters amongst a people too busy to give to letters any more. As such it is precious as the sign of an indestructible instinct. Perhaps thetime is already come when it ought to be, and will be, something else; when the sluggard intellect of this continent will look from under its iron lids and fill the postponed expectation of the world with something better than the exertions of mechanical skill. Our day of dependence, our long apprenticeship to the learning of other lands, draws to a close. The millions that around us are rushing into life, cannot always be fed on the mere remains of foreign harvests. Events, actions arise, that must be sung, that will sing themselves. Who can doubt that poetry will revive lead in a new age, as the star in the constellation Harp, which now flames in our zenith, astronomers announce, shall one day be the polestar for a thousand years?(Excerpted from The American Scholar by R.W. Emerson)II.Translate the following passage into English.(25%)海风微微的吹过岛上,白日里剩下的热气全吹走了。

This trend involves growing vegetables and herbs in small plots of land, rooftops, or even in containers on balconies. It is a movement that combines the passion for nature with the convenience of urban living.One of the pioneers of urban farming in Shanghai is Li Wei, a 28-year-old engineer. Li Wei’s journey into urban f arming started when he noticed the lack of fresh vegetables in his local market. “I wanted to have access to fresh, organic produce without having to travel far,” he says. So, he started growing his own vegetables in his small apartment.Li Wei’s urban far m is a testament to the creativity and ingenuity of modern urbanites. He uses hydroponics, a method of growing plants without soil, to cultivate a variety of vegetables and herbs. The system is efficient and requires minimal water, making it ideal for urba n settings. “Hydroponics is perfect for small spaces,” Li Wei explains. “It allows me to grow more in less space.”The benefits of urban farming are numerous. Not only does it provide fresh, healthy food for individuals and communities, but it also helps to reduce carbon footprints. “When you grow your own food, you reduce the need for transportation and packaging,” Li Wei notes. “It’s a more sustainable way of living.”However, urban farming is not without its challenges. One of the biggest obstacles is the lack of awareness and knowledge about the practice. Many people are not aware of the benefits of urban farming and are hesitant to try itthemselves. Li Wei and his team are working to change this by organizing workshops and community events to educate people about urban farming.1、What motivated Li Wei to start his urban farming project?A. The high cost of fresh vegetables.B. The lack of fresh vegetables in his local market.C. The popularity of hydroponics.D. The desire to travel far.2、What is the main advantage of hydroponics for urban farming?A. It requires a lot of space.B. It is not suitable for growing vegetables.C. It is efficient and requires minimal water.D. It is expensive to set up.3、According to the passage, what are the benefits of urban farming?A. It increases the carbon footprint.B. It provides access to fresh, healthy food.C. It increases transportation costs.D. It requires a lot of packaging.4、What is one of the challenges faced by urban farming?A. The abundance of fresh vegetables in local markets.B. The high cost of hydroponic systems.C. The lack of awareness and knowledge about the practice.D. The difficulty of growing vegetables without soil.Answers:1、B2、C3、B4、C第二题Passage:In the small town of Greenfield, the local library has always been a hub of community activity.

Explain the issue, suggest possible solutions, and encourage the readers to take action.Example:[Your Name][Your Address][City, State, Zip Code][Email Address][Phone Number][Date]Editor-in-Chief[Newspaper Name][Newspaper Address][City, State, Zip Code]Dear Editor-in-Chief,I am writing to bring to your attention a concerning issue that has recently come to my attention in our community. The problem is the increasing amount of plastic waste being discarded in public spaces, which is not only unsightly but also harmful to our environment.Over the past few months, I have noticed a significant increase in plastic bags, bottles, and packaging being left on streets and in parks. This issue is not only a reflection of poor waste management but also a disregard for the health of our planet. The plastic waste ends up in rivers and oceans, where it can be ingested by marine life, causing long-term damage to the ecosystem.I believe there are several steps that can be taken to address this problem. Firstly, the local government should consider implementing stricter regulations on single-use plastics. This could include a ban on plastic bags at stores or imposing fines for littering. Secondly, educational campaigns should be launched to raise awareness about the environmental impact of plastic waste. These campaigns could be conducted in schools, community centers, and through local media outlets.I encourage the readers of your newspaper to take action as well. Here area few suggestions:。

全文1000多字,共11段,但题目只要求翻译划线部分,总计翻译872字,共6段。

完整原文如下:The whole course of man's life up to adolescence is a period of weakness; yet there comes a time during these early years when the child's strength overtakes the demands upon it, when the growing creature, though absolutely weak, is relatively strong. His needs are not fully developed and his present strength is more than enough for them. He would be a very feeble man, but he is a strong child.What is the cause of man's weakness? It is to be found in the disproportion between his strength and his desires. It is our passions that make us weak, for our natural strength is not enough for their satisfaction. To limit our desires comes to the same thing, therefore, as to increase our strength. When we can do more than we want, we have strength enough and to spare, we are really strong. This is the third stage of childhood, the stage with which I am about to deal. I still speak of childhood for want of a better word; for our scholar is approaching adolescence, though he has not yet reached the age of puberty.About twelve or thirteen the child's strength increases far more rapidly than his needs. The strongest and fiercest of the passions is still unknown, his physical development is still imperfect and seems to await the call of the will. He is scarcely aware of extremes of heat and cold and braves them with impunity. He needs no coat, his blood is warm; no spices, hunger is his sauce, no food comes amiss at this age; if he is sleepy he stretches himself on the ground and goes to sleep; he finds all he needs within his reach; he is not tormented by any imaginary wants; he cares nothing what others think; his desires are not beyond his grasp; not only is he self-sufficing, but for the first and last time in his life he has more strength than he needs.I know beforehand what you will say. You will not assert that the child has more needs than I attribute to him, but you will deny his strength. You forget that I am speaking of my own pupil, not of those puppets who walk with difficulty from one room to another, who toil indoors and carry bundles of paper. Manly strength, you say, appears only with manhood; the vital spirits, distilled in their proper vessels and spreading through the whole body, can alone make the muscles firm, sensitive, tense, and springy, can alone cause real strength. This is the philosophy of the study;I appeal to that of experience. In the country districts, I see big lads hoeing, digging, guiding the plough, filling the wine-cask, driving the cart, like their fathers; you would take them for grown men if their voices did not betray them. Even in our towns, iron-workers', tool makers', and blacksmiths' lads are almost as strong as their masters and would be scarcely less skilful had their training begun earlier. If there is a difference, and I do not deny that there is, it is, I repeat, much less than the difference between the stormy passions of the man and the few wants of the child. Moreover, it is not merely a question of bodily strength, but more especially of strength of mind, which reinforces and directs the bodily strength.This interval in which the strength of the individual is in excess of his wants is, as I have said, relatively though not absolutely the time of greatest strength. It is the most precious time in his life; it comes but once; it is very short, all too short, as you will see when you consider the importance of using it aright.He has, therefore, a surplus of strength and capacity which he will never have again. What use shall he make of it? He will strive to use it in tasks which will help at need. He will, so to speak, cast his present surplus into the storehouse of the future; the vigorous child will make provision for the feeble man; but he will not store his goods where thieves may break in, nor in barns which are not his own. To store them aright, they must be in the hands and the head, they must be stored within himself. This is the time for work, instruction, and inquiry. And note that this is no arbitrary choice of mine, it is the way of nature herself.Human intelligence is finite, and not only can no man know everything, he cannot even acquire all the scanty knowledge of others. Since the contrary of every false proposition is a truth, there are as many truths as falsehoods. We must, therefore, choose what to teach as well as when to teach it. Some of the information within our reach is false, some is useless, some merely serves to puff up its possessor. The small store which really contributes to our welfare alone deserves the study of a wise man, and therefore of a child whom one would have wise. He must know not merely what is, but what is useful.From this small stock we must also deduct those truths which require a full grown mind for their understanding, those which suppose a knowledge of man's relations to his fellow-men--a knowledge which no child can acquire; these things, although in themselves true, lead an inexperienced mind into mistakes with regard to other matters.We are now confined to a circle, small indeed compared with the whole of human thought, but this circle is still a vast sphere when measured by the child's mind. Dark places of the human understanding, what rash hand shall dare to raise your veil? What pitfalls does our so-called science prepare for the miserable child. Would you guide him along this dangerous path and draw the veil from the face of nature? Stay your hand. First make sure that neither he nor you will become dizzy. Beware of the specious charms of error and the intoxicating fumes of pride. Keep this truth ever before you--Ignorance never did any one any harm, error alone is fatal, and we do not lose our way through ignorance but through self-confidence.His progress in geometry may serve as a test and a true measure of the growth of his intelligence, but as soon as he can distinguish between what is useful and what is useless, much skill and discretion are required to lead him towards theoretical studies. For example, would you have him find a mean proportional between two lines, contrive that he should require to find a square equal to a given rectangle; if two mean proportionals are required, you must first contrive to interest him in the doubling of the cube. See how we are gradually approaching the moral ideas which distinguish between good and evil. Hitherto we have known no law but necessity, now we are considering what is useful; we shall soon come to what is fitting and right.Man's diverse powers are stirred by the same instinct. The bodily activity, which seeks an outlet for its energies, is succeeded by the mental activity which seeks for knowledge. Children are first restless, then curious; and this curiosity, rightly directed, is the means of development for the age with which we are dealing. Always distinguish between natural and acquired tendencies. There is a zeal for learning which has no other foundation than a wish to appear learned, and there is another which springs from man's natural curiosity about all things far or near which may affect himself. The innate desire for comfort and the impossibility of its complete satisfaction impel him to the endless search for fresh means of contributing to its satisfaction. This is the first principle of curiosity;a principle natural to the human heart, though its growth is proportional to the development of our feeling and knowledge. If a man of science were left on a desert island with his books and instruments and knowing that he must spend the rest of his life there, he would scarcely trouble himself about the solar system, the laws of attraction, or the differential calculus. He might never even open a book again; but he would never rest till he had explored the furthest corner of his island, however large it might be. Let us therefore omit from our early studies such knowledge as has no natural attraction for us, and confine ourselves to such things as instinct impels us to study.2.汉译英(75分)2016年11月5日,上海外国语大学首届“中国学的国际对话:方法与体系”国际研讨会在虹口校区高翻学院同传室拉开帷幕,本次学术研讨会由上外主办,中国学研究所协同国际关系与公共事务学院、高级翻译学院联合承办,欧盟研究中心、俄罗斯研究中心、英国研究中心、中日韩合作研究中心以及马克思主义学院共同参与。

This museum is dedicated to the story of the first undersea telegraph cable, laid in 1850, which revolutionized global communication.The concept of undersea telegraphy was first proposed in the 1840s by English scientist and inventor, Charles Wheatstone. Wheatstone’s idea was to lay a cable across the English Channel to connect the British Isles with the continent of Europe. However, it was not until 1850 that the first successful underseatelegraph cable was laid, thanks to the perseverance and ingenuity of the cable’s engineers.The construction of the cable was a monumental task. It required the engineering of a cable that could withstand the immense pressure of the ocean depths, and the ability to lay it across the treacherous seas. The cable itself was made of copper wires insulated with gutta-percha, a natural rubber-like substance. The engineers worked tirelessly, overcoming numerous obstacles, to lay the cable from England to France.Once the cable was in place, the impact on communication was immediate and profound. Messages that once took weeks to travel across the ocean could now be sent in a matter of minutes. This technological marvel not only transformed global communication but also had a significant impact on the development of the modern world.1、What is the main topic of the passage?A.
