现代大学英语精读5翻译(1.4.5.9.10单元)

现代大学英语V-4译文及练习答案女性的职业弗吉尼亚·伍尔夫l.你们的秘书邀请我时对我说你们妇女服务团关注的是女性就业问题,她提议我讲一讲我就业的亲身体验。
我是女性,这是事实;我有工作,这也是事实。
但我又有什么职业体验呢?这很难讲。
我从事的是文学职业,与其他职业相比,当然不包括戏剧行业,在文学职业里几乎没有什么女性体验,我的意思是几乎没有女性特有的体验。
多年前,路已开辟出来。
许多知名的女性---范妮·伯尼、阿芙拉.贝恩、哈丽雅特·马蒂诺、简·奥斯汀、乔治·艾略特---和许多不知名以及已被人忘记的女性在我之前铺平了道路并指导我向前走。
因此,在我从事写作时,几乎没有物质障碍。
写作这个职业既受人尊敬又没有危险。
写字的沙沙声不会打破家庭的和平,写作也不需要什么家庭开销。
花16便士买的纸足够用来写莎士比亚的所有戏剧---要是你有那样的才智的话。
作家不需要钢琴和模特,不用去巴黎、维也纳和柏林,也不需要家庭教师。
当然,廉价的写作用纸是女性作为作家成功而先于其他职业的原因。
2.我讲讲我的故事,那只是个平常的故事。
你们自己设想一个姑娘,手里握着一支笔坐在卧室里。
从十点钟到一点钟她只是不停地由左向右写,然后她想到做一件既省钱又省力的事---把那些纸张放进信封,在信封的一角贴上一张一便士的邮票,把信封投进拐角的一个红色邮筒。
我就是这样成了一名撰稿人。
我的努力在下个月的第一天得到了回报---_那是我一生中非常快乐的一天。
我收到了编辑寄来的一封信,里面装有一张一英镑十先令六便士的支票。
为了让你们了解我不值得被称作职业女性,对人生的艰难和奋斗知之甚少,我得承认我没用那笔钱买食物、付房租、买袜子和肉,而是出去买了一只猫,一只漂亮的波斯猫,这只猫不久就引起了我和邻居间的激烈争端。
3.什么会比写文章并用赚得的钱买波斯猫来得更容易?但再想一想,文章得有内容。
我好像记得我的文章是评论一部名人写的小说。

现代大学英语精读5课后翻译Lesson 1 Where Do We Go from Here1. A white lie is better than a black lie,一个无关紧要的谎言总比一个善意的谎言要好。
2.To upset this cultural homicide, the Negro must rise up with an affirmation of his own Olympian manhood.为了挫败各种蓄意培植的低人一等的心态,黑人必须直起腰来宣布自己高贵的人格。
3.…with a spirit straining toward true self-esteem, the Negro must boldly throw off the manacles of self-abnegation…黑人必须以一种竭尽全力自尊自重的精神,大胆抛弃自我克制的枷锁。
4.What is needed is a realization that power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power issentimental and anemic.必须懂得没有爱的权力是毫无节制、易被滥用的,而没有权力的爱则是多愁善感、脆弱无力的。
5.It is precisely this collision of immoral power with powerless morality which constitutes the major crisis of ourtimes.正是这种邪恶的权力和没有权势的道义的冲突构成了我们时代的主要危机。
6.Now, early in this century this proposal would have been greeted with ridicule and denunciation, as destructive ofinitiative and responsibility.在本世纪之初,这种建议会受到嘲笑和谴责,认为它对主动性和责任感起到负面作用。

2. Metaphor (1-3)
“隐喻”又称暗喻,是用于两个不同类别对象之间的比喻。隐喻与明喻的 区别在于,明喻将本体和喻体说成是相似的,而隐喻则将两者说成是一 致的。明喻中必须有比喻词,而隐喻中则不需要,因此隐喻被称为“压 缩了的明喻”(condensed simile)。

Love is an easy game to play.
Love is blue, like the "blue" in "blue movies".
Love is blind.
Love is a kind of emotion that
makes you feel up and down.
There are two main types of arguments: deductive and inductive. A deductive argument is an argument such that the premises provide complete support for the conclusion. An inductive argument is an argument such that the premises provide some degree of support (but less than complete support) for the conclusion.

浅析《大学英语》中常用英语修辞格
浅析《大学英语》中常用英语修辞格浅析《大学英语》中常用英语修辞格一些语言和文章之所以流传广泛,经久不衰,是因为它们极有表现力,其中不乏准确恰当的修辞手段,从而使文章更加形象生动、意蕴丰富并且引人入胜。
本文根据《大学英语》中出现的最常见的几种修辞格加以分析,希望有助于大家在学习英语的过程中能够恰当地选择修辞手段来丰富自己的表达。
明喻(Simile)明喻是一种最简单、最常见的修辞方法,是以两种具有共同特征的事物或现象进行对比,表明本体和喻体的关系,两者都在对比中出现,其基本格式是“A像B”,常用的比喻词有as, like, as if, as though 等。
例如:●He jumped back as if he had been stung, and the blood rushed into his wrinkled face.(他往后一跳,好像被什么东西叮了一下似的,他那张布满皱纹的脸顿时涨得通红。
)在《品尝家》一文中老人对“我”的慷慨施舍的反应如同被蜜蜂叮过一样,生动地刻画出一个处境凄凉内心却极度敏感的可怜老人的形象。
●The cheque fluttered to the floor like a bird with a broken wing. (支票跌落到地上,像一只断了翅膀的小鸟。
) 《礼物》一文中,老太太喜迎八十大寿,大女儿不来庆祝,只寄来一张支票。
作者把这张支票比作断了翅膀的小鸟,形象地表达出此刻老太太希望破灭,极度伤心的心情。
暗喻(Metaphor)暗喻也是一种比喻,但不用比喻词,因此被称作缩减了的明喻(a compressed simile)。
它直接把一种事物名称用在另一事物上,从而更生动、更深刻地说明事理,增强语言的表现力。
例如:●What will parents do without the electronic baby-sitter? (如果没有这位电子保姆,父母该怎么办呢?) 形象地说明了电视机的保姆功用。
