Part One: Translate the following into Chinese ( 60 points)
（1）
The American mathematician Norbert Wiener first gave common use to the word “cybernetics” (from the Greek word for “steersman”), to describe that branch of study which is concerned with self-regulating systems of communication and control in living organisms and machines. The derivation seems apt, since the primary function of many cybernetic systems is to steer an optimum course through changing conditions towards a predetermined goal. We know from long experience that stable objects are those with broad bases and with most of their mass centred low, yet we seldom marvel at our own remarkable ability to stand upright, supported only by our jointed legs and narrow feet. To stay erect even when pushed, or when the surface beneath us moves, as on a ship or a bus; to be able to walk or run over rough ground without falling; to keep cool when it is hot or vice versa, are examples of cybernetic processes and of properties exclusive to living things and to highly automated machines.

The book that has been treasured many years and read again and again is not merely a book written by somebody or other so many years ago. It is part of oneself, incorporated and inseparable; and after one has spent some time in reading new books there is a wonderful friendliness about the faded and familiar pages of an old book. The reader opens it at random and sees a marked passage that brings the past to life again. He knows without turning what he will find on the next page, and yet there is a distinct pleasure in looking to see that nothing has been changed. Added to all these pleasures, there is the more prosaic consideration that “dead authors are amazingly cheap”.
The desire to follow familiar paths is, of course, a feeling that becomes intensified as one grows older. In the days of youth, on the contrary, tradition is all to make. The adventurous spirit is strong, and novelty has an irresistible appeal by no means pleasant to the elders. Dr. Arnold was greatly disturbed by the popularity of The Pickwick Papers with the boys, and not so long ago a conscientious headmistress expressed herself as grieved to find her pupils taking with avidity to the stories of W. W. Jacobs. But youth will be served, and all the fulminations of elder folk avail but little. Pickwick has now achieved the position of a classic appointed to be read in schools, and the stories of Mr. Jacobs will soon be regarded as wholly acceptable reading for the class-room.

A young man sees a sunset and, unable to understand or to express the emotion that it rouses in him, concludes that it must be the gateway to a world that lies beyond. It is difficult for any of us in the moments of intense aesthetic experience to resist the suggestion that we are catching a glimpse of a light that shines down to us from a different realm of existence, different and, because the experience is intensely moving, in some way
higher. And, though the gleams blind and dazzle, yet do they convey a hint of beauty and serenity greater than we have known or imagined？Greater too than we can describe; for language, which was invented to convey the meanings of this world, cannot readily be fitted to the uses of another. That all great art has this power of suggesting a world beyond is undeniable. In some moods Nature shares it. There is no sky in June so blue that it does not point forward to a bluer, no sunset so beautiful that it does not waken the vision of a greater beauty, a vision which passes before it is fully glimpsed, and in passing leaves an indefinable longing and regret.
Part Two: Translate the following into English (40 points)
（1）
一般情况下，我喜欢孤独。我的最大爱好是沉思默想。我可以一个人长时间地独处而感到愉快。独享欢乐是一种愉快，独自忧伤也是一种愉快。孤独的时候，精神不会是一片纯粹的空白，它仍然是一个丰富多彩的世界。情绪上的大欢乐和大悲痛往往都在孤独中产生。孤独中，思维可以不依照逻辑进行。孤独更多地产生人生的诗情——激昂的和伤感的。孤独可以使人的思想向更遥远更深邃的地方伸展，也能使你对自己或环境作更透彻的认识和检讨。当然，孤独常常叫人感到无以名状的忧伤。而这忧伤有时又是很美丽的。我喜欢孤独。但我也惧怕孤独。
（2）
自然景色中，青草与白雪是最伟大的现象。造物者描写“自然”这幅大画图时，对于春红、秋艳，都只是轻描淡写。到了描写白雪与青草，他就毫不吝惜颜料，用刷子大块地涂抹，使屋屋皆白，山山皆青。这是何等泼辣的画风！而草色青青，连天遍野，尤为和平可亲，大公无私的春色。花木有时被关闭在私人的庭园里，草则到处自生自长，不择贵贱高下。人都以为花是春的作品，其实春工不在花枝，而在于草。看花的能有几人？草则广泛地生长在大地的表面，普遍地受大众的欣赏。一年好景，无过于此时。自然对人的恩宠，也以此时为最深厚了。
Part Three: Read the following passage carefully and write an essay of about 300 words, elaborating on the author’s argument. Your score would be reduced on proportion to the number of sentences you copy from the passage. (50 points)
If you attempt to cultivate friendship in any kind of “Friends Circle” over your mobile phone, whether on WeChat Moments or QQ Space Dynamics, your efforts will surely be in vain. At first, I was excited about the posts shared among friends—news updates, articles rich in knowledge, friends’ recent happenings and greetings… However, I soon found out that the news often turns out to be rumor, that it becomes an obligation to click the “like” icon or make comments on the posts especially when others have already done so, and worse still, that my best friends are sharing with EVERYBODY information that in the past they would have confided to me only. Although it is flooded with information, or misinformation, the “Friends Circle” is not for real friends. On one hand, there is no genuine sincerity; on the other hand, people spend much more time showing off rather than having meaningful conversations with real friends. A friend to everybody is a friend to nobody. A TRUE friend is the one who walks in when the whole world has walked out, not the other way around. Because of the lack of sincerity and privacy, the “Friends Circle” has reduced my best friends to casual acquaintances, and me to a lonely soul. I hate it—yet can’t leave it. The “Friends Circle” indeed is ruining true friendships. It may have many positive elements, but it can never be a circle of friends.

This leads some people to believe that a person can achieve great success without a formal education and that the qualifications a successful person needs cannot be acquired through the study in university or other institutions of similar nature. It cannot be denied that there do exist such examples in every country; however, I can hardly share the above point of view for several reasons In the first place, a college or university is a specialized institution of higher learning where people can receive systematic and scientific training in a certain field, which paves the way for their future career. With the advent of the era of knowledge-based economy, a man without a sound academic background can hardly accomplish anything. Only in universities and other institutions of higher learning can he/she master the professional knowledge and relevant skills essential to his/her career. Secondly, it is wise to learn at another man's cost. We can benifit much from the invaluable experience and knowledge handed down from our ancestors and draw a lesson from the failure of our predecessors so as to avoid detour. Thirdly, when in university, one also has to learn to communicate and cooperate with teachers and fellow students, during which one cultivates friendship and acquires the interpersonal skills, both of which are conductive to one's future career and success. University is said to be a miniature society. Last of all, there are innumerable successful people who attribute their achievements to a formal university education. It is no wonder that so many parents spare no efforts to send their children to colleges and universities.

(完整版)历年大学英语四级翻译真题
历年四级段落型翻译真题 Roger Li 2014年6月大学英语四级翻译 试卷一：中餐 许多人喜欢中餐，在中国，烹饪不仅被视为一种技能，而且也被视为一种艺术。精心准备的中餐既可口又好看，烹饪技艺和配料在中国各地差别很大。但好的烹饪都有一个共同点，总是要考虑到颜色、味道、口感和营养(nutrition)。由于食物对健康至关重要，好的厨师总是努力在谷物、肉类和蔬菜之间取得平衡，所以中餐既味美又健康。 译文： Many people like Chinese food. In China, cooking is viewed as not only a skill but also a form of art. The well-prepared Chinese food is both delicious and good-looking. Although cooking methods and food ingredients vary wildly in different places of China, it is common for good cuisine to take color, flavor, taste and nutrition into account. Since food is crucial to health, a good chef is insistently trying to seek balance between cereal, meat and vegetable, and accordingly Chinese food is delicious as well as healthy. 试卷二：信息技术 信息技术(Information Technology)，正在飞速发展，中国公民也越来越重视信息技术，有些学校甚至将信息技术作为必修课程，对这一现象大家持不同观点。一部分人认为这是没有必要的，学生就应该学习传统的课程。另一部分人认为这是应该的，中国就应该与时俱进。不管怎样，信息技术引起广大人民的重视是一件好事。 译文： As Chinese citizens are attaching increasing importance to the rapidly developing Information Technology, some colleges even set it as a compulsory course. In regard to this, people hold different opinions. Some people view it as unnecessary move, for students should learn the traditional curriculum. Other thinks it is a need, because China should keep pace with the times. Anyway, it is a good thing that Information Technology arouses public concern. 试卷三：茶文化 "你要茶还是咖啡?"是用餐人常被问到的问题，许多西方人会选咖啡，而中国人则会选茶，相传，中国的一位帝王于五千年前发现了茶，并用来治病，在明清(the qing dynasties)期间，茶馆遍布全国，饮茶在六世纪传到日本，但直到18世纪才传到欧美，如今，茶是世界上最流行的饮料(beverage)之一，茶是中国的瑰宝。也是中国传统和文化的重要组成部分。译文： "Would you like tea or coffee?" That’s a question people often asked when having meal. Most westerners would choose coffee, while the Chinese would like to choose tea. According to legend, tea was discovered by a Chinese emperor five thousand years ago, and then was used to cure disease. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, tea houses were all over the country. Tea drinking spread to Japan in the 6th century, but it was not until the 18th century does it spread to Europe and America. Nowadays, tea is one of the most popular beverages in the world, and it is not only the treasure of China but also an important part of Chinese tradition and culture. 试卷四：中国结 中国结最初是由手工艺人发明的，经过数百年不断的改进，已经成为一种优雅多彩的艺术和工艺。在古代，人们用它来记录事件，但现在主要是用于装饰的目的。“结”在中文里

1.英译汉（75分） 该部分选取的是卢梭的《爱弥儿》（Emile, or On Education）部分文章，主要选自《爱弥儿》第三卷第一节。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;
2015年6月13日全国大学英语四级翻译真题及答案
2 015年6月13日全国大学英语四级翻译真题及答案 大米 在西方人心目中，和中国联系最为密切的基本食物是大米。长期以来，大米在中国人的饮食中占据很重要的地位，以至于有谚语说“巧妇难为无米之炊”。中国南方大多数种植水稻，人们通常以大米为食；而华北大部分地区因为过于寒冷或过于干燥，无法种植水稻，那里的主要作物是小麦。在中国，有些人用面粉做面包，但大多数人用面粉做馒头和面条。 In the mind of Westerners,Chinese people have the closest connection to rice,basic food for the Chinese.For a long time,rice occupies a very important position in the Chinese diet.There is even a saying that "even a clever housewife cannot cook a meal without rice".People in south China plant and live on rice,while people in the most parts of North China cannot plant rice due to excessively dry and cold weather. The main crop there is wheat. In China, some people use flour to bake bread,while most people make steamed bread and noodles with flour. xx 中国是世界上最古老的文明之一。构成现代世界基础的许多元素起源于中国。中国现在拥有世界上发展最快的经济，并正经历着一次新的工业革命。中国还启动了雄心勃勃的太空探索计划，其中包括到20年建成的一个太空站。目前，中国是世界最大的出口国之一，并正在吸引大量外国投资。同时，它也在海外投资数十亿美元。2011年，中国超越日本成为世界第二大经济体。 快递 据报道，今年中国快递服务（courier service）将递送大约120亿件包裹。这将使中国有可能超越美国成为世界上最大的快递市场。大多数包裹里装着网上订购的物品。中国给数百万在线零售商以极具竞争力的价格销售商品的机会。仅在11月11日，中国消费者就从国内最大的购物平台购买了价值90亿美元的商品。中国有不少这样的特殊购物日。因此，快递业在中国扩展就不足为奇了。

大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习（39） 1.Thisisyet_________________(两国人民的又一个共同点). 2.Hisscientificworks_______________(在英语国家得到广泛阅读). 3.Revolutionmeanstheemancipationoftheproductiveforces，_____________(改革也是解放生产力). 4.Heisoptimistic________________(对现时信息产业的发展状况). 5.Workinallfieldsshouldbesubordinatedtoand________________(服务于经济发展的进程). 1.anothercommonpointbetweenthepeopleofourtwocountries 解析：本题考查通过增补介词使译文的意思更完整。虽然原文没有和between相对应的词，但是"共同点"是两国人民之间在某方面进行比较的结果，所以增补between之后，符合英语表达习惯。增词法也是汉译英中常用技巧之一，再如：她以教书为业。(Sheisateacherbyoccupation.)我已重新考虑了那件事。(I'vehadsecondthoughtonthatmatter.) 2.werewidelyreadinEnglish-speakingcountries 解析：若是按照字面翻译，这句话很可能被译为werewidelyreadinEnglishcountries。但是原文中"英语国家"的含义是"讲英语的国家"。这体现了英汉表达差异。请考生看下面这句话的英译：我卖掉了彩电。/IsoldoutmycolorTV.这句译文错误在于，没弄清"彩电"的含义。"彩电"有两层意思：一是指具体的实物，即彩色电视机colorTVset;二是指屏幕上出现的影像，即彩色电视colorTV。而句子中卖掉的只能是机器，具体的实物。 3.andsodoesreform 解析：本题意为：革命是解放生产力，改革也是解放生产力。考点有二：第一，考查词性转移。原文中"解放"用作动词，"生产力"作宾语。译文中处理成名词短语"对生产力的解放"。第二，考查省译法。我们不能把原文译成andreformalsomeanstheemancipationoftheproductiveforces，这种结构显得臃肿累赘。为避免重复，可以选用andsodoes...来代替这个动宾结构。 4.aboutthepresentdevelopmentofinformationindustry 解析："对......表示乐观"可以用句型beoptimisticaboutsth.。这句话不能译成aboutthestatusofthepresentdevelopmentofinformationindustry。"状况"是一个范畴词，没有实际含义，可省略不译。 5.servetheeconomicdevelopment 解析："服务于......"即"为......服务"，所以要用servesb./sth.的结构，不能译成beservedto。"进程"也是一个范畴词，可以省略不译。另外，besubordinatedto是一个固定结构，含义是"从属于......，隶属于......"。 声明：此资源由本人收集整理于网络，只用于交流学习，请勿用作它途。如有侵权，请联系，删除处理。
