2015年南开大学翻译硕士考研英语翻译基础考研真题及答案解析
英译汉:worker compensation law
汉译英:丝绸之路
专业课的复习和应考有着与公共课不同的策略和技巧,虽然每个考生的专业不同,但是 在总体上都有一个既定的规律可以探寻。以下就是针对考研专业课的一些十分重要的复习方 法和技巧。
一、专业课考试的方法论对于报考本专业的考生来说,由于已经有了本科阶段的专业基 础和知识储备,相对会比较容易进入状态。但是,这类考生最容易产生轻敌的心理,因此也 需要对该学科能有一个清楚的认识,做到知己知彼。
第二轮复习:每年的 9 月—12 月中旬这个时段属于专业课的加固阶段。第一轮复习后 总会有许多问题沉淀下来,这时最好能够一一解决,以防后患。对于考生来说,这 4 个月是 专业知识急剧累积的阶段,也是最为繁忙劳累的时候。
在专业课复习上,这段时间应该主要看近年的学术期刊以及一些重要的学术专著,边看 书边做读书笔记,并整理以前的听课笔记。一项这是十分重要的工作,因为复习的重点会往 公共课上倾斜,专业课复习所占的时间也会缩短。此时需要注意本年度涉及所考专业的热点 问题。
其实考研不一定要天天都埋头苦干或者从早到晚一直看书,关键的是复习效率。要在持 之以恒的基础上有张有弛。具体复习时间则因人而异。一般来说,考生应该做到平均一周有 一天的放松时间。
四门课中,专业课(数学也属于专业课)占了 300 分,是考生考入名校的关键,这 300 分最能拉开层次。例如,专业课考试中,分值最低的一道名词解释一般也有 4 分或者更多, 而其他专业课大题更是动辄十几分,甚至几十分,所以在时间分配上自然也应该适当地向专 业课倾斜。根据我们的经验,专业课的复习应该以四轮复习为最佳,所以考生在备考的时候 有必要结合下面的内容合理地安排自己的时间:第一轮复习:每年的 2 月—8 月底这段时间 是整个专业复习的黄金时间,因为在复习过程遇到不懂的难题可以尽早地寻求帮助得到解 决。这半年的时间相对来说也是整个专业复习压力最小、最清闲的时段。考生不必要在这个 时期就开始紧张。

And as a member of the advisory council of the National Endowment for the Arts during the administration of George H. W. Bush, he referred to those he thought were interfering with arts grants as "bullies and art bashers.He will succeed Ted Kooser, the Nebraskan who has been the poet laureate since 2004. The announcement of Mr. Hall's appointment is to be made by James H. Billington, the Librarian of Congress. Mr. Billington said that he chose Mr. Hall because of "the sustained quality of his poetry, the reach and the variety of things he talks about." Like Mr. Kooser, Mr. Billington said," Mr. Hall evokes a sense of place.Mr. Hall, 77, lives in a white clapboard farmhouse in Wilmot, N. H., that has been in his family for generations. He said in a telephone interview that he didn't see the poetlaureateship as a bully pulpit. "But it's a pulpit anyway," he said. "If I see First Amendment violations, I will speak up."Mr. Hall is an extremely productive writer who has published about 18 books of poetry, 20 books of prose and 12 children's books. He has won many awards, including a national Book Critics Circle Award in 1989 for "The One Day", a collection.In recent years much of his poetry has been preoccupied with the death of his wife, the poet Jane Ken-yon, in 1995.Robert Pinsky, who was poet laureate from 1997 to 2000 said he welcomed Mr. Hall's appointment, especially in light of his previous outspokenness about politics and arts. "There is something nicely symbolic, and maybe surprising," Mr. Pinsky said, "that they have selected someone who has taken a stand forfreedom. "The position carries an award of $ 35, 000 and $ 5, 000 travel allowance. It usually lasts a year, though poets are sometimes reappointed.31 Donald Hall______.(A)uses simple English to express the images of the New England landscape(B)dislikes the idea of impacting government by the right side of the religion(C)is the 14th poet laureate appointed by the Congress(D)is a member of the advisory council of the National Endowment for the Arts32 James H. Billington______.(A)likes the poems with great depth and width(B)speaks highly of poems in simple English rather than complex ones(C)prefers the poems with sustained style and expression (D)likes the poems with the knowledge of various things33 Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?(A)Mr. Hall has published many books and magazines on poems.(B)Mr. Hall is a critic of literature in the U. S.(C)Mr. Hall has got many prizes for his talents in writing.(D)Mr. Hall has got support from his predecessors.34 What can be inferred from the passage?(A)Mr. Hall loves his wife very much.(B)Mr. Hall takes the new appointment for granted.(C)Mr. Hall has got great ideas from his wife.(D)Mr. Hall may hold the position for another year.35 What is the best title for the passage?(A)A Guard for Politics and Arts(B)A New Poet Laureate(C)A Representative for Freedom(D)The Winning of a Poet35 Most of us are taught to pay attention to what is said —the words. Words do provide us with some information, but meanings are derived from so many other sources that it would hinder our effectiveness as a partner to a relationship to rely too heavily on words alone. Words are used to describe only a small part of the many ideas we associate with any given message. Sometimes we can gain insight into some of those associations if we listen for more than words. We don't always say what we mean or mean what we say. Sometimes our words don't mean anything except "I'm letting off some steam. I don't really want you to pay close attention to what I'm saying. Just pay attention to what I'm feeling." Mostly we mean several things at once. A person wanting to purchase a house says to the current owner, "This step has to be fixed before I'll buy. "The owner says, "It's been like that for years." Actually, the step hasn't been like that for years, but the unspoken message is; "I don't want to fix it. We put up with it. Why can't you?" Thesearch for a more expansive view of meaning can be developed through examining a message in terms of who said it, when it occurred, the related conditions or situation, and how it was said.When a message occurs can also reveal associated meaning. Let us assume two couples do exactly the same amount of kissing and arguing. But one couple always kisses after an argument and the other couple always argues after a kiss. The ordering of the behaviors may mean a great deal more than the frequency of thebehavior. A friend's unusually docile behavior may only be understood by noting that it was preceded by situations that required an abnormal amount of assertiveness. Some responses may be directly linked to a developing pattern of responses and defy logic. For example, a person who says " No!" to a serials of charges like "You're dumb," "You're lazy," and "You're dishonest," may also say "No!" and try to justify his or her response if the next statement is " And you're good looking. "We would do well to listen for how messages are presented. The words, "It sure has been nice to have you over," can be said with emphasis and excitement or ritualistically. The phrase can be said once or repeated several times. And the meanings we associate with the phrase will change accordingly. Sometimes if we say something infrequently it assumes more importance; sometimes the more we say something the less importance it assumes.36 Effective communication is rendered possible between two conversing partners,if______.(A)they use proper words to carry their ideas(B)they both speak truly of their own feelings(C)they try to understand each other's ideas beyond words(D)they are capable of associating meaning with their words37 "I'm letting off some steam" in paragraph 1 means______.(A)I'm just calling your attention(B)I'm just kidding(C)I'm just saying the opposite(D)I'm just giving off some sound38 The house-owner's example shows that he actually means______.(A)the step has been like that for years(B)he doesn't think it necessary to fix the step(C)the condition of the step is only a minor fault(D)the cost involved in the fixing should be shared39 Some responses and behaviors may appear very illogical, but are justifiable if______. (A)linked to an abnormal amount of assertiveness(B)seen as one's habitual pattern of behavior(C)taken as part of an ordering sequence(D)expressed to a series of charges40 The word " ritualistically" in the last paragraph equals something done______. (A)without true intention(B)light-heartedly(C)in a way of ceremony(D)with less emphasis40 Cellular slime molds are extraordinary life forms that exhibit features of both fungi and protozoa, although often classed for convenience with fungi. At one time they were regarded as organisms of ambiguous taxonomic status, but more recent analysis of DNA sequences has shown that slime molds should be regarded as inhabiting their own separate kingdom.Their uniqueness lies in their unusual life cycle, which alternates between a feeding stage in which the organism is essentially unicellular and a reproductive stage in which the organism adopts a multicellular structure. At the first stage they are free-living, separate amoebae, usually inhabiting the forest floor and ingesting bacteria found in rotting wood, dung, or damp soil. But their food supplies are relatively easily exhaustedsince the cells' movements are restricted and their food requirements rather large.When the cells become starved of nutrition, the organism initiates a new genetic program that permits the cells to eventually find a new, food-rich environment. At this point, the single-celled amoebae combine together to form what will eventually become a multicellular creature. The mechanism by which the individual members become a single entity is essentially chemical in nature. At first, a few of the amoebae start to produce periodic chemical pulses that are detected, amplified, and relayed to the surrounding members, which then move toward the pulse origin. In time, these cells form many streams of cells, which then come together to form a single hemispherical mass. This mass sticks together through the secretion of adhesion molecules.The mass now develops a tip, which elongates into a finger-like structure of about 1 or 2 millimeters in length. This structure eventually falls over to form a miniature slug, moving as a single entity orienting itself toward light. During this period the cells within the mass differentiate into two distinct kinds of cell. Some become prestalk cells, which later form into a vertical stalk, and others form prespore cells, which become the spore head.As the organism migrates, it leaves behind a track of slime rather like a garden slug. Once a favorable location has been found with a fresh source of bacteria to feed on, the migration stops and the colony metamorphoses into a fungus-like organism in a process known as "culmination." The front cells turn into a stalk, and the back cells climb up the stalk and form a spherical-shaped head, known as the sorocarp. This final fruiting body is about 2 millimeters in height. The head develops intospores, which are dispersed into the environment and form the next generation of amoebae cells. Then the life cycle is repeated. Usually the stalk disappears once the spores have been released.The process by which the originally identical cells of the slime mold become transformed into multicellular structures composed of two different cell types — spore and stalk — is of great interest to developmental biologists since it is analogous to an important process found in higher organisms in which organs with highly specialized functions are formed from unspecialized stem cells. Early experiments showed which parts of the slime mold organism contributed to the eventual stalk and which parts to the head. Scientists stained the front part of a slug with a red dye and attached it to the back part of a different slug. The hybrid creature developed as normal. The experimenters then noted that the stalk of the fruiting body was stained red and that the spore head was unstained. Clearly, the anterior part of the organism culminated in the stalk and the posterior part in the spore head. Nowadays, experiments using DNA technology and fluorescent proteins or enzymes to label the prespore and prestalk cells have been undertaken. This more molecular approach gives more precise results than using staining dyes but has essentially backed up the results of the earlier dye studies.41 How the slime should be classified used to be______.(A)unknown(B)uncertain(C)controversial(D)unfamiliar42 According to the passage, what is unusual about the slime molds' life cycle?(A)They inhabit their own kingdom.(B)They are organisms whose classification is ambiguous.(C)They alternate between unicellular and multicellular structures.(D)They are free-living organisms.43 All of the followings are mentioned in the text as being parts of the multicellular slug EXCEPT______.(A)the head(B)the stalk(C)legs(D)spores44 Why does the author refer to the fungus-like organism asa fruiting body?(A)Because it has become one entity.(B)Because it is 2 millimeters in height.(C)Because it now has a stalk and head.(D)Because it has reached its reproductive stage.45 According to the passage, the recent DNA studies______.(A)give similar results to the dye studies(B)contradict the dye studies(C)are less exact than the dye studies(D)have introduced confusion about the dye study results45 Barry Schwartz did not expect to feel inspired on a clothes-shopping trip. "I avoid buying jeans; I wear one pair until it falls apart," says Schwartz, an American psychology professor. "The last time I had bought a pair there had been just one style. But recently I was asked if I wanted this fit or that fit, or this color or that. I intended to be out shopping for five minutes but it took an hour, and I began to feel more and more dissatisfied. "This trip made him think: did more choice always mean greater satisfaction? " I'd always believed that choice was good, andmore choice was better. My experience got me thinking: how many others felt like me?"The result was a widely discussed study that challenged the idea that more is always better. Drawing on the psychology of economics, which looks at how people choose what to buy, Schwartz designed a questionnaire to show the differences between what he termed "maximisers" and "satisficers." Broadly speaking, maximisers are keen to make the best possible choices, and often spend time researching to ensure that their purchases cannot be bettered. Satisficers are the easy-going people, delighted with items that are simply acceptable.Schwartz puts forward the view, which contrasts with what politicians and salesmen would have people believe, that the unstoppable growth in choice is in danger of ruining lives. "I'm not saying no choice is good. But the average person makes at least 200 decisions every day, and I don't think there's room for any more. "His study may help to explain the peculiar paradox of the wealthy West — psychologists and economists are puzzled by the fact that people have not become happier as they have become richer. Infact, the ability to demand whatever is wanted whenever it is wanted has instead led to rising expectations.The search for perfection can be found in every area of life from buying soap powder to selecting a career. Certain decisions may automatically close off other choices, and some people are then upset by the thought of what else might have been. Schwartz says, "If you make a decision and it's disappointing, don't worry about it, it may actually have been a good decision, just not as good as you had hoped."One fact that governments need to think about is thatpeople seem more inclined to buy something if there are fewer, not more, choices. If that's true for jeans, then it is probably true for cars, schools and pension funds. "If there are few options, the world doesn't expect you to make the perfect decision. But when there are thousands it's hard not to think there's a perfect one out there, and that you'll find it if you look hard enough.If you think that Internet shopping will help, think again: "You want to buy something and you look at three websites. How long will it take to look at one more? Two minutes? It's only a click. Before you know it you've spent three hours trying to decide which £10 item to buy. It's crazy. You've used another evening that you could have spent with your friends. "Schwartz, who describes himself as a natural satisficer, says that trying to stop our tendency to be maxi-misers will make us happier. "The most important recommendation I can give is to lower personal expectations," he says. "But no one wants to hear this because they all believe that perfection awaits the wise decision maker. Life isn't necessarily like that."46 Why may some advice be rejected?47 What confuses experts according to the passage?48 What can be the emotional effect of the result of makinga choice?49 How was Schwartz's research undertaken?50 How can personality be defined in the text?三、Writing51 Directions: In this part you are going to write an essay of about 400-500 words within 60 minutes on the topic as follows. Write your response on the answer sheet T opic Some people think that cultural traditions will be destroyed if they are used as money-making attractions aimed at tourists. Others, however,believe that is the only way to save these traditions. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on the issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.。

2016年北京大学翻译硕士真题

2016年北京大学翻译硕士真题考完,浑浑噩噩的两天。

都是主观题,也感觉不到什么好与不好。

哎,先这样吧。

还是趁着记忆还鲜活,先从后往前说吧。

一直都处于感冒的边缘,身体不舒服,所以回忆晚了点。

请大家见谅。

首先,最后一门,百科写作。

百科词语解释:文选、文选妖孽和桐城谬种、《荷马》、、Matthew Arnold、CSR、温室气体排放、文学翻译、文化中心主义、一带一路、语言桥(翻译公司),也就只能记住这些了,这些词汇的出处都是刘宓庆的《中西翻译思想比较研究》和另外一本《未来企业之路》,真心把握不住会考哪个词语,所以,还是实打实地把这两本书过一遍为妙,至少也可以混个眼熟,不至于碰到一个词,什么也说不出来。

今年的词语解释,几乎不涉及翻译史和语言学名词,和去年的差别很大。

着实不好把握。

应用文:大概题干:北京二十五中的李平发现学校早上举行升旗仪式时,同学们不怎么大声唱国歌,经调查发现,很大一部分同学不会唱国歌是主要原因,李平就和部分同学商量写一篇文章,号召同学们大声唱国歌,大家一致推荐李平为主笔人,假如你是李平,请完成这篇文章。

注意文体和格式,450字左右。

题干中没有直接给出应用文的格式,但是,看到“号召”两个字,本人觉得写一篇倡议书为好,另外,经研究发现,北大2011年和2012年的应用文写作都是要求写倡议书。

所以觉得八九不离十就是倡议书了。

大作文:大概题干:2015年11月,北京普降大雪,对此,有人欢喜有人忧,请以此为话题,自立题目,文体不限,字数800字以内。

这个话题着实不好下手,难道要写成对立统一规律的辩证法?很难找到有高度有水平的利益。

请自行思考,在此就不多加讨论了。

翻译基础首先词汇翻译,考了两个去年考过的:桂冠诗人、室内设计,还有就是孕妇装、付费电视、露天市场、读者文摘英译汉:Vatican City,Union Jack,string quartet,X-rate,spaghetti,英译汉:是关于modenity,self,self-realization,self-exploration,aesthetics,中间举例子有马克思、尼采、韦伯等人的思想,最后回归到了double consciousness(这是翻译硕士英语中排序题的主题词应该是选自同一篇文章),最后讲到modernity不再局限于西方,而是扩展到所有追求现代的人,是给所有人的poisoned gift。

Progress in U.S.-China Economic Relations
China’s stunning economic growth over the past three decades has lifted hundreds of millions of Chinese out of poverty and thrustChinainto global markets as the second-largest economy and world’s leading exporter. China’s foreign trade has grown over six-fold since joining the WTO in 2001, due in large part to its “Going Out” strategy, which was launched in 1999 to encourage investment abroad. TheUnited Stateswelcomes a strong, prosperous, and successfulChinathat plays a key role in world affairs and adheres to international standards. And we are counting onChina’s leadership to help meet the many challenges confronting the global economy. It is worth noting that when President Nixon first visitedChinaforty years ago, the U.S.-China economic relationship was nonexistent.China’s economic policies were of little or no consequence to our domestic economy – nor did our economic policies have any effect on theirs.
