CATTI三级笔译实务模拟题2020年(2)(总分100, 做题时间180分钟)English-Chinese Translation1.It is more than a quarter of a century since the leaders of the world, gathered in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, committed their countries to avoiding "dangerous anthropogenic interference in the climate system" by signing the UN convention on climate change. The case for living up to their words has only become stronger. The level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere grows unremittingly. Average global temperatures have risen, t oo, to about 1°C above those of the pre-industrial era. The science that links the two is incontestable. Recent extreme-weather events, from floods in Hanoi to fires in California, were made more likely by the change that the climate has already undergone. Things will only get worse — perhaps catastrophically so.In a sense the world is already equipped for the task at hand. Wind and solar power have, after huge subsidies, joined nuclear reactors and dams as affordable ways of generating gigawatts of electricity without burning fossil fuels. As our Technology Quarterly this week shows, parts of the energy system not easily electrified—some forms of transport, industrial processes like making steel and cement, heating offices and homes—could also be decarbonized **ing technologies. And policymakers have tools to bring about change, including carbon taxes, regulation, subsidies and, if they choose, command and control.Yet when the parties to the convention on climate change meet again in Katowice, Poland, on December 2nd, it will be against a backdrop not just of rising temperatures but also of rising despair. The problem is obvious: the stakes are huge; solutions are within reach. So why is the response inadequate?The chief reason is that the world has no history of dealing with such a difficult problem, nor the institutions to do so. The harm done by climate change is not visited on the people, or the generations, that have the best chance of acting against it. Those who suffer most harm are and will be predominantly poor and in poor countries. The people called on to pay the costs of reducing that harm are and will be mostly much better off.The better off are more able to adapt to climate change than the poor, and thus have less cause to avoid change. And making the poor wealthy enough to adapt involves economic growth that is still mostly powered by fossil fuels. Although no one should be asked to forgothat growth, it has consequences.What might produce a moment of clarity to break this impasse? Onepossibility is the sheer impact of climate change. Geophysical features of Earth are already being redrawn. The dry edges of the tropics are heading pole wards at about 50km a decade. The line of aridity defining the American West has moved roughly 230km east since 1980. The sea ice in the Arctic is a shadow of its former self. Nobody can know whether the world will one day wake up and cut emissions to zero. Even if it does, the main problem — the stock of greenhouse gases already emitted — will remain. A crash programme to suck carbon dioxide out of the air would take vast resources and years to make a difference.Another spur might be innovation. The world would have many fewer firms developing electric cars were it not for Elon Musk and Tesla. But without policies to spread innovation, such as a carbon tax or subsidy and regulation, inventiveness alone is insufficient. The technology that matters is the technology being used.SSS_TEXT_QUSTI分值: 50答案:1992年,世界各国领导人齐聚里约热内卢,签署了一项有关气候变化的联合国公约,承诺避免“气候系统受到危险的人为干扰”。

Mr. Ball, a commercial artist, was simply filling a request from Joy Young of the Worcester Mutual Insurance Company to create an image for their smile campaign to coach employees to be more congenial in their customer relations. It seems there was a hunger for a bright grin—the original order of 100 smiley-face buttons were snatched up and an order for 10,000 more was placed at once.The Worcester Historical Museum takes this founding moment seriously. Just as youd want to know the biography of General Washington, we realized we didnt know the comprehensive history of the Smiley Face, says Bill Wallace, the executive director of the historical museum where the exhibit Smiley—An American Icon opens to the public Oct. 6 in Worcester, Mass.Worcester, often referred to by neighboring Bostonians as that manufacturing town off Route 90, lays claim to several other famous commercial firsts, the monkey wrench and shredded wheat among them. Smiley Face is a particularly warm spot in the citys history. Through a careful historical analysis, Mr. Wallace says that while the Smiley Face birthplace is undisputed, it took several phases of distribution before the distinctive rounded-tipped smile with one eye slightly larger than the other proliferated in the mainstream.As the original buttons spread like drifting pollen with no copyright attached, a bank in Seattle next realized its commercial potential. Under the guidance of advertising executive David Stern, the University Federal Savings Loan launched a very public marketing campaign in 1967 centered on the Smiley Face. It eventually distributed 150,000 buttons along with piggy banks and coin purses. Old photos of the bank show giant Smiley Face wallpaper.By 1970, Murray and Bernard Spain, brothers who owned a cardshop in Philadelphia, were affixing the yellow grin to everything from key chains to cookie jars along with Have a happy day. In the 1970s, there was a trend toward happiness, says Wallace. We had assassinated a president, we were in a war with Vietnam, and people were looking for [tokens of] happiness. [The Spain brothers] ran with it.The Smiley Face resurged in the 1990s. This time it was fanned by a legal dispute between Wal-Mart, who uses it to promote its low prices, and Franklin Loufrani, a Frenchman who owns a company called SmileyWorld. Mr. Loufrani says he created the Smiley Face and has trademarked it around the world. He has been distributing its image in 80 countries since 1971.Loufranis actions irked Ball, who felt that such a universal symbol should remain in the public domain in perpetuity. So in a pleasant proactive move, Ball declared in 1999 that the first Friday in October would be World Smile Day to promote general kindness and charity toward children in need. Ball died in 2021.The Worcester exhibit opens on World Smile Day, Oct. 6. It features a plethora of Smiley Face merchandise—from the original Ball buttons to plastic purses and a toilet seat—and contemporary interpretations by local artists. The exhibit is scheduled to run through Feb. 11.1. According to the passage, the Worcester Historical Museum ______.(A) concentrates on the collection of the most famous commercial firsts the city has invented(B) has composed a comprehensive history of the Smiley Face through the exhibition(C) treats Smiley Face as the other famous commercial firsts the city has produced(D) has organized the exhibit to arouse the Americans patriotism2. When the author used the expression spread like drifting pollen (para.4) to describe the gradual distribution of Smiley Face, he implies that ________.(A) Harvey Ball did not claim the copyright of the yellow grin button(B) the Smiley Face was immediately accepted by the public(C) the button was not sold as an ordinary commercial product(D) Harvey Ball had the intention to abandon the copyright of Smiley Face3. Why did Bill Wallace mention the assassination of the then American president and the Vietnam War in the 1970s?(A) To have a review of the contemporary American history.(B) To remind people that we should never forget the past.(C) To explain why Americans liked the Smiley Face during that period.(D) To show how the Spain brothers made a fortune through sellingthe yellow grin.4. In the expression Loufranis actions irked Ball (para.7), the word irked can best be replaced by ______.(A) perplexed(B) provoked(C) irritated(D) challenged5. Which of the following is NOT true about the World Smile Day?(A) It was established to commemorate the founder Harvey Ball.(B) It was to promote general kindness and charity toward children in need.(C) It was declared by Harvey Ball in 1999.(D) It was decided to be held on the first Friday in October each year.翻译考试高级口笔译考试模拟试卷SECTION 3: TRANSLATION TESTDirection: Translate the following passage into Chinese and write your version in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.Well before his death, Peter Drucker had already become a legend. Over his 95 prolific years, he had been a true Renaissance man, and teacher of religion, philosophy and political science. But his most important contribution, clearly, is in business. What John Keynes is to economics, Druckers is to management.In the 1980s Peter Druckers began to have grave doubts about business and even capitalism itself. He no longer saw the corporation as the ideal space to create community. In fact, he saw nearly the opposite: a place where self-interest had triumphed over the egalitarian principles he long championed. In both his writings and speeches, Druckers emerged as one of Corporate Americas most important critics. When conglomerates were the rage, he preached against reckless mergers and acquisitions. When executives were engaged in empire-building, he argued against excess staff and the inefficiencies of numerous assistants to.In a 1984 essay he persuasively argued that CEO pay had rocketed out of control and implored boards to hold CEO compensation to no more than 20 times what the rank and file made. He maintained that multi-million-dollar severance packages had perverted managements ability to look out anything but itself. What particularly enraged him was the tendency of corporate managers to reap massive earnings while firing thousands of their workers. This is morally and socially unforgivable, wrote Druckers, and we will pay a heavy price for it.翻译考试高级口笔译考试模拟试卷Directions: In this section you will read several passages. Each one is followed by several questions about it. You are to choose ONE best answer, (A), (B), (C) or (D), to each question.

2020年英语翻译资格考试高级口译模拟试题(4)

2020年英语翻译资格考试高级口译模拟试题(4)The term “American dream” is widely used today. Butwhat exactly does this concept mean? Where does the term come from? Has the meaning of the term changed over time?Questions like these can complicate a seemingly simple term and lead us to an even more important question: is the American dream a myth or a reality today?The term “American dream” began to be widely used in 1867. The term was used in a famous novel written by Horatio Alger. The novel, Ragged Dick, was a “rags to riches” story about a little boy who was orphaned and lived in New York.The boy saved all his pennies, worked very hard, andeventually became rich. The novel sent the message to the American public that anyone could succeed in America if they were honest, worked hard, and showed determination to succeed. No matter what your background, no matter where you were from, no matter if you had no money or no family, hard work and perseverance would always lead to success.Today, the message from Alger’s novel is still aprevalent one in this country. It is still used to define the American dream. A very basic definition of the American dream is that it is the hope of the American people to have abetter quality of life and a higher standard of living than their parents. This can mean that each generation hopes for better jobs, or more financial security, or ownership of land or a home.However, new versions and variations of the Americandream have surfaced since Alger’s novel was published. Forone thing, the basic definition I stated a moment ago — the idea that Americans are always seeking to improve their lifestyle — also suggests that each generation wants more than the previous generation had. Some people would arguethat this ever-increasing desire to improve the quality of one’s life may have started out on a smaller scale in the past, but today has led to an out-of-control consumerism and materialism.Another more benign view of the American dream is that it is about the desire to create opportunities for ourselves, usually through hard work. A hallmark of the American dream, some would argue, is the classic “self-starter,” the person who starts out with very little in life—little money, few friends, few opportunities—and works hard to make his or her way in the world. A classic example of this type of American dreamer would be former president Abraham Lincoln, who was born in a log cabin, was largely self-educated, and yet worked his way up in the world to eventually become a United States president.This view of the American dream has also been associated with immigrants and their quests for a better life in a new country. Americans have long been fascinated by immigrant stories, and many feel great pride about their own families who may have come from other countries, worked very hard, and created a better life for future generations.The American dream has also, historically, been associated with westward expansion in this country. Throughout most of the 1800s, the notion of the frontier—a vast expanse of largely unclaimed land in the West—symbolized new opportunities and a fresh start to people. Many a dreamer set off for the West in search of land, jobs, gold, or other opportunities, often with next to nothing in his pocket. Unfortunately, this idea of new opportunities in the West had a negative side.The American West was not unpopulated; Native American Indians already lived there, along with other immigrant groups, and these people were often displaced — or met with violence — if they interfered with the visions or ideas of westward-migrating Americans.A more recent interpretation of the American dream has to do with equality. Civil rights activists such as Dr. Martin Luther King Junior, used some of the rhetoric associated with the American dream to urge people to work for equal opportunities for all Americans, not just some Americans. A harsh reality was becoming clear to some people, especiallyin the 1960s and 1970s: not everyone had the same opportunities. If people were denied jobs, education, or other opportunities because of their race, ethnic background, or gender, was the American dream only a myth?。

Median income fell last year from $52,163 to$50,303, wiping out a decade's worth of gains to hit thelowest level since 1997. Poverty jumped sharply to 13.2 percent, an 11-year high.No one should be surprised at the increased disparity. Analysts attributed the widening gap to the wave of layoffsin the economic downturn that have devastated household budgets.

2020年翻译资格考试二级口译试题段落一:第三,贫困地区自身增长水平是关键。

中国古语说:“授人以鱼不如授之以渔”。

在贫困省区,我们以村为单位,改善基本生产条件,提升贫困人口自我组织水平和自我发展水平。

The third principle of the Chinese Government for poverty reduction is that poor regions’ own development capacity is the key. As an old Chinese saying goes:“Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a life time.”In those poor regions China has taken measures to improve basic production conditions. In addition, efforts are made to increase capacity for self-development village by village.在有些自然条件特别恶劣的地方,也实施了易地扶贫搬迁,从根本上改变生存和发展环境。

我们通过小额信贷、劳动力培训、发展特色产业等方式,调整地区经济结构,增加收入。

For people living in places with extremely harsh natural conditions, the Chinese Government encourages them to move to more hospitable areas. In turn, their basic living and production conditions are fundamentally changed for the better.On top of these policies China has optimized regional economic structure and increased incomes through programslike micro credit, vocational training and development oflocal specialty industries.。

翻译资格考试高级口译模拟试题Crime control is a pretty complex question, the first step, of course, is deterrence to stop people from committing crime in the first place. That involves the economy. Are there enough jobs for everyone? There should be. And social structure, are there enough support system? And so on. When people are convicted, and put in prison, then the goal should be to have reform programs inside prisons. So th ey want person comes out, they don’t return to a life of crime. If the education program and drug treatment program have been cut, convicted criminals are not being reformed.译文:如何控制犯罪率是一个十分复杂的问题。

首先,当然要防止犯罪行为的发生。

包括从经济方面来说,是否有足够的工作提供给所有人?这个是应该要保证的;从社会机构来说,是否有足够的社会保障体系?等等。

而一旦人们犯了罪,被关进监狱了,那么监狱里就需要有改造计划,可以让这些人出狱之后,不再回到犯罪生涯。

Someone scores like 120 or 130. That kindof person is incredibly in generating word-of-mouth epidemics. If they like something and get hold of some idea, they can spread 5 or 6 times further than the average person.W: Who are those people, what defines them?M: Well, these are extraordinarily social people with alot of energy who are consumed by the task of getting to know people, of meeting people, of keeping in touch with them.They make phone calls all day long.W: I am afraid I am one of them.M: This is not typical behavior. This is a behavior that is actually rare. Most of us don’t do that. And I am someone who is not that way. I can't start a word-of-mouth epidemic because I simply do n’t know enough people. I can’t get it outside my own immediate circle of friends. Someone hasfriends all over the place. They can spread the news about a new restaurant, or a new movie, or something far and wide ina very, very short time.W: These are the Connectors. Who are the Mavens and who are the Salesmen?M: The Mavens are people who have specialized knowledge. If you examine why you make certain decisions, why do you shop somewhere, why do you go to a certain restaurant,you’ll find that you a re relying on the same person over and over again for recommendations. Those people I call Mavens. My friend Ereal is a Maven, who knows all about the restaurants in lower Manhattan. If I want to know about the hot new restaurant, I call Ereal. Well, all o f Ereal’s friends call Ereal, and if you go to restaurants in lower Manhattan and look around the room, you will see friends ofEreal. The restaurant market is an epidemic market, which is controlled by a group of Ereals. I don’t think there are very many of them. There are probably two dozen of them. That’s true of lots of things. That’s true of shopping, and books and movies. If a Maven gets together with a Connector, then you begin see why a word-of-mouth epidemic might happen. Someone who knows everyone in combination with someone who knows everything is a really powerful connection.W: And then introduce the Salesmen.M: Well, those people are incredibly persuasive. And again, that’s a very rare and unusual trait.W: Leaves me out, you see. I ca n connect, but I can’t sell.M:Well, they are separate categories. I’ve met with a guy who is known as one of the greatest salesman in America today. When you meet with someone like that, you begin torealize why trans happen. They happen because someone who has this extraordinary natural ability to win you over. When they get hold of an idea, they can really make it go a long way.Questions:1.

2020年英语翻译资格考试高级口译模拟试题(2)
Crime control is a pretty complex question, the first step, of course, is deterrence to stop people from committing crime in the first place. That involves the economy. Are
there enough jobs for everyone? There should be. And social structure, are there enough support system? And so on. When people are convicted, and put in prison, then the goal should be to have reform programs inside prisons. So they want
person comes out, they don’t return to a life of crime. If
the education program and drug treatment program have been cut, convicted criminals are not being reformed.
译文:如何控制犯罪率是一个十分复杂的问题。

首先,当然要防
止犯罪行为的发生。

包括从经济方面来说,是否有充足的工作提供给
所有人?这个是应该要保证的;从社会机构来说,是否有充足的社会保
障体系?等等。

而一旦人们犯了罪,被关进监狱了,那么监狱里就需要
有改造计划,能够让这些人出狱之后,不再回到犯罪生涯。

如果停掉
教育计划和毒品治疗方案,那就无法对这些犯人就行改造了。

评析:本篇段落翻译选自2008年春季高口的听力原文,这就暗示
了广大口译考生,历年的听力原文等材料是平时训练的重要资源,平
时多积累,考试的时候方可胸有成竹。

本篇段落注重的是一个常见的社会问题——如何控制犯罪率。


落给出了两点建议,一个是要防患未然;二是在对犯人实施改造计划。

内容对考生来说应该并不陌生,语速也较为平缓,作为两段翻译的的
第二段,在难度上是能够接受的。

本段词汇较为常见。

注意deterrence,意是“威慑,制止”,这
里考生也可将名词转译为动词,译为“防止犯罪行为的发生”;另外,convict这个单词意为“判…有罪”,convicted criminals指“囚犯,犯人”。

段落的句子结构较为简单。

考生只需注意这个长句:When people are convicted, and put into prison, the goal should be to
have reform programs inside prisons, so that when the person comes out, they don't return to a life of crime. 这个句子虽长,但只要理解语义,理清分句之间的逻辑关系,如when引导的是从句,the goal 后面的内容是主句,so that作的是目的状语。

划分好结构,再按句子本身的语序实行翻译就能够了。

总体来说,本篇英译中难度适中,主题也不偏颇另类,考生在平
时注意对社会问题的积累,多实行真题练习,把握好时间和心态,相
信会顺利完成翻译。
