2009 年春中口翻译部分【E—C】In a normal recession, the to-do list is clear. Copies of Keynes are dusted off, the banks lower interest rates, the president and Congress cut taxes and hike spending.

American work ethic is more individual-oriented. We often value the results and accomplishments of work more than its process.//If I am not mistaken, the traditional Chinese work ethic is based on Confucianism, which stresses the benefit of communal harmony rather than individual freedom.// It’s really very hard to say which is better because if the cultural differences. With the economic globalization, cultural exchanges have become more and more extensive and Americans and Chinese will know and understand each other better.至于我们美国人,你们会感到我们太看重个人主义,太看重个人利益,这样可能会牺牲集体的利益,甚至会损害社会的和谐。
中级口译历年真题--翻译篇

中级口译历年真题--翻译篇2012年春季(3月)英译汉原文:When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog, which was one of the bibles of my generation. It was created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic touch. This was in the late 1960′s, before personal computers and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and Polaroid cameras. It was sort of like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.Stewart and his team put out several issues of The Whole Earth Catalog, and then when it had run its course, they put out a final issue. It was the mid-1970s, and I was your age. On the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous. Beneath it we re the words: “Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.” It was their farewell message as they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. And I have always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you. 英译汉参考译文:我年轻的时候,有本非常好的杂志《全球目录》,这是我们那代人的“圣经”之一。

中级口译英译汉真题集

2000.3Information and communications are central to modern society and organizations. One approach to understand the working environment is to consider an organization as a communications system. An organization that has open lines of communication with valid, honest information going up, down, and throughout the organization will be much more effective and a much better place to work than the organization that attempts to restrict the flow of information or distort and deceive. When leadership attempts to keep workers in the dark, workers tend to become distrustful. This undermines their cooperation. It is easy to understand the value and importance of open, honest communications and valid information. Yet, few organizations are able to function in this manner. In the long run, poor communication will undermine the entire organization. Restricting communication and distorting information aresymptoms of short-range thinking. We must avoid these stupid, short-sighted traps and constantly strive for and open communications system with objective information.信息和交流对现代社会和机构是非常重要的。

历年英语翻译中级口译考试试题及答案(完整版)

历年英语翻译中级口译考试试题及答案(完整版)Spot DictationIn America there are no nobles or men of letters, and the common folk mistrust the wealthy; Consequently lawyers formthe highest political class and the most cultivated circle of society. They have therefore nothing to gain by innovation, which adds a conservative interest to their natural taste for public order. If I were asked where I place the American aristocracy, I should reply without hesitation that it is not composed of the rich, who are united together by no commontie, but that it occupies the judicial bench and the bar.When I started researching this topic, I found an interesting website “Legal Reform Now”. As the name suggests, this website is devoted to legal reform and it is definitely concerned about the dominance of lawyers in American government. There I read an article by a political science professor from the university of Wisconsin. One observation the UW article confirms is that the legal profession is the dominant profession of the people re-electto public office. For example, about half our representatives and two-thirds of our senators are lawyers. No otherprofession comes close to having the same the number ofpeople in political office. Effectively, lawyers form our nation’s most powerful organized political constituency in America. Lawyers make our laws and lawyers interpret our laws. When judges are appointed, the American bar association isthe only professional organization that is consulted to rate the fitness of potential judicial appointees. Our nation has been in existence for over 200 years and lawyers have beenthis nation’s aristocracy since its formation. Our system works, but do we really want to have a single profession in charge of our nation? Specifically, do we want to have the legal profession in charge? Next t ime you vote, that’s something to think about.评析:这篇文章是关于律师在美国的地位。

In time, purchasing, production and loans perk up, and Keynes is placed back on the shelf.

This has been the drill in every recession since World War II.Republicans and Democrats argue over whose taxes should be cut the most and which projects should be funded, but under public pressure to do something, they usually find some mutually acceptable midpoint and enact a stimulus package. This time, though, don’t expect that to be the end of the story-----because the coming recession will not be normal, and our economy is not fundamentally sound. This time around, the nation will have to craft new versions of some of the reforms that Franklin Roosevelt created to steer the nation out of the Great Depression. 【译文】:若只是寻常的经济萧条,那应对方案一目了然:翻出久违的凯恩斯著作,联邦政府降低利率,总统及国会一面减税,一面增加财政支出。
假以时日,购买力激升,生产力急速飞涨,贷款数随之猛增。
凯恩斯的作品重获关注。
美国的经济并非一帆风顺,但总的来说还不错,并不需要对经济体制做出大刀阔斧的改革。
所以第二次世界大战之后,我们一直照此方案应对经济危机。
政府应为哪些阶层多减税,为哪些项目提供资助,这些是共和党和民主党长期争论的话题。
公众要求他们付诸于行动的舆论压力下,政府往往实施双方都可接受的折衷方案,达到推动经济进步的目的。
即使到了党派分歧严重的今时今日,政府仍希望找到此种方案。
然而这次的萧条非比平常,所以事情就不那么简单。
从本质上说,我们的经济确有弊端。
因此要动用一些富兰克林·罗斯福当年的改革措施,还需做到与时俱进。
才能力挽狂澜、扭转乾坤,最终拨得云开见日出。
【解析】:1、In a normal recession, the to-do list is clear.译:在平常,经济状况一旦萧条下来,大家都就很明白应该马上着手做哪些事情:本句中,normal recession名词性短语,但需要采用词类转换的翻译方法,进行扩展翻译成一个句子,the to-do list“大家应该做的事情”,本句主系表结构,字面意思:大家要做的事情是很清楚的。
采用正反翻译的方法,将其翻译为“大家都就很明白应该马上着手做哪些事情:”。
2、Copies of Keynes are dusted off, the Fed lowers interest rates, the president and Congress cut taxes and hike spending.译:重新翻开尘封已久的凯恩斯的著作,联邦政府调低利息率,总统和国会开始减税,增加财政支出。
本句是接上文,列举出的一系列动作,并列举。
在句中,Copies of Keynes are dusted off,字面意思为:凯恩斯著作上的灰尘会被拂去。
根据本文的语意表达环境,我们采用意译,翻译为:重新翻开尘封已久的凯恩斯的著作。
3、In time, purchasing, production and loans perk up, and Keynes is placed back on the shelf. 译:用不了多久,市场上购销两旺,生产线生机勃勃,贷款扶摇而上,于是乎,凯恩斯的书又回了书架。
本句中,前半句purchasing, production and loans perk up中,perk vi. 振作;活跃起来(+up),在英语中“perk up”可以用于形容以上三个主语,而在汉语中有不同搭配,所以对本句,翻译成三个小分句“市场上购销两旺,生产线生机勃勃,贷款扶摇而上”会更好一点。
对于“Keynes is placed back on the shelf”中,“Keynes”需要翻译为:凯恩斯的著作。
该句子翻译为:凯恩斯的著作又会被放回到书架上。
【C—E】钟表上的秒针一下一下地移动,每移动一下就是表示我们的寿命已经缩短了一部分。
再看看墙上挂着的可以一张张撕下的日历,每天撕下一张就是表示我们的寿命又缩短了一天。
因为时间即生命。
没有人不爱惜他的生命,但很少人珍视他的时间。
如果想在有生之年做一点什么事,学一点什么学问,充实自己,帮助别人,使生命成为有意义,不虚此生,那么就不可浪费光阴。
这个道理人人都懂,可是很少人能积极不懈地善为利用他的时间。
【译文】:Our life is shortened by every tick of the second hand of the clock. Each page peeled away from the wall calendar marks a bygone day. Time is life, while life is cherished by everybody, but time, by few. How can we achieve something in our brief life? To learn some knowledge! To replenish ourselves! To help those in need! To add significance to our life! Time should not be squandered if we want to make our life meaningful (to get a lot out of our life). This principle is accepted by all, but wisely observed by very few.2009秋季翻译部分【E—C】What is a novel? I say: an invented story. At the same time a story which, though invented, has the power to ring true. True to what? True to life as the reader knows life to be or, it may be, feels life to be. And I mean the adult, the grown-up reader. Such a reader has outgrown fairy tales, and we do not want the fantastic and the impossible. So I say to you that a novel must stand up to the adult tests of reality.You may say:”If one wants truth, why not go to the literally true book? Biog raphy or documentary, these are amazing accounts of amazing experiences which people have.” Yes, but I am suggesting to you that there is a distinction between truth and so-called reality. The novel does not simply recount experience. And here comes in what is the actual livening spark of the novel: the novelist’s imagination has a power of its own. It does not merely invent, it perceives. It intensifies, therefore it gives power, extra importance, and greater truth to what may well be ordinary and everyday things.小说是什么?我认为是人们创造出来的故事。
同时尽管是创造出来的故事,但是小说仍然有一种力量能够让人听上去感觉像真的一样。
真的像什么呢?就像读者所知道的那种生活或者可能的生活样子,像他们所感觉的那种生活。
当然我指的是对于成熟的成年读者而言。
像我们这样的成年读者已经足够长大,不再相信童话故事,不再需要奇异幻想和那些不可能发生的事情。
所以我对你说,小说必须要成熟起来,能够让成年人将之放在生活中试验。
你或许会说:“如果一个人需要事实,他为什么不去看完完全全真实的书呢?自传或者纪录片里都是些令人惊异的真人真事的描述。
这当然正确,但是我对你的建议是事实和所谓的现实之间有着本质的区别。
小说并不仅仅只是叙述人们的经历,小说会添加人们的经历。
而这一点正是小说所具有的活力火花:小说家的想象力有其自己强大的力量。
