When Christopher Columbus landed on the then unnamed Costa Rica in 1502, he saw many Indians wearing gold earrings.So he thought the land must be rich in gold.He named the place Costa Rica, which means “rich coast” in Spanish.Though little gold was found, Costa Rica today is indeed rich with coffee and bananas.Coffee is the most important product in Costa Rica and most of it is exported(出口)to other countries like America and West Germany.Bananas are the country’s second most important export.Costa Ricans also grow many other crops such as fruits, corn and beans for their own use.Costa Ricans love colors and their houses are painted in bright colors.Education is very important to the Costa Ricans.Almost every village has a school and education is a must for children between seven and fourteen years of age.Boys and girls go to separate(单独的)schools.Classes begin in March and end in November.The other three months of the year are harvest time and the children have to help their parents to pick coffee beans.51.What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?

Christian Eijkman, a Dutch doctor, left the Netherlands for the island of Java.Many peopleAt first, Eijkman thought some kind of germ(细菌)caused beri-beri.He raised some chickens.He didn’t eat them, but made experiments on them.The local people were quite surprised at that.One day he noticed that his chickens became sick when they were fed the food most Javanese ate — refined white rice(精炼米).When he fed them with unrefined rice, also known as brown rice, they recovered.Eijkman realized that he had made an important discovery — that some things in food could prevent disease.These things were named vitamins(维生素).The Javanese were not getting enough vitamins because they had actually removed the part that contains vitamins.Later, other diseases were also found to be caused by the lack of vitamins in a person’s food.Today many people know the importance of vitamins and they make sure they have enough vitamins from the food they eat.If they don’t, they can also take vitamin pills.56.The underlined word “cure” in Paragragh 1 probably means ______.A.a medical treatmentB.a kind of vitamin C.a kind of germD.a kind of rice
57.Christian Eijkman went to the island of Java to ______.A.spend his holiday
B.find ways to grow better cropsC.do some research about the island D.help the Javanese with their illness
58.Why did Christian Eijkman raise some chickens? A.To eat them.B.To carry out his experiments.C.To give the Javanese a surprise.D.To make money by selling them.59.If a person doesn’t get enough vitamins in his diet, he’d better ______.A.eat more riceB.eat more meat C.eat some chickenD.eat vitamin pills 60.We can learn from the passage that ______.A.beri-beri was caused by chickens B.the Javanese didn’t like vitamins
C.Christian Eijkman’s experiment was successful
D.the Javanese’s disease was caused by a kind of germ
C ★★
America is a mobile society.Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change.Neither side feels hurt by this.Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while — then no more.If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship.This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending(延伸)sometimes deeply into both families.Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life.They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality(好客)easily.Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time.This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be night to meet a friend.We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends.The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine.They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus.And they expect that we will phone them from there.Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real.We will find ourselves treated hospitably.For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters.So accept their hospitality at home!61.The writer of this passage must be ______.A.an AmericanB.a ChineseC.a professorD.a student 62.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A.Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.B.Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.C.Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.D.Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.63.From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be ______.A.warmly welcomed at the airportB.offered a ride to his home
C.treated hospitably at his homeD.treated to dinner in a restaurant
64.The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean ______.A.strict with timeB.serious with time C.careful with timeD.willing to spend time
65.A suitable title for this passage would probably be “______”.A.Friendships between ChineseB.Friendships between Americans C.Americans’ hospitality
D.Americans’ and Chinese’s views of friendships

The other day I heard a few local musicians talking:
“I hate all the terrible pianos in this town.I hate that rubbish they play on the radio.They can’t even understand a bit of music.”“I’m never playing in that club again.Too many drunks and nobody listens to us.”But, one younger musician said, “There are a few clubs that book my band a few nights a month, and I’m trying to find other places to play.I’m also looking to book a few summer festivals this year.”I’ve heard that you are the average of the five people whom you spend the most time with, or to put it another way, you are who your friends are.you’re around people who complain about lack of work and about other musicians, or blame(责怪)others, and you play the role of victim(受害者), chances are you will start to as well.So it’s time to take a look at the people you call “friends”.This is an easy exercise: Make a list of the people who you hang out with, and simply stop spending time with the negative people on your list.Set a new standard(标准)for yourself and don’t become friends with people who fall below that standard.Keep successful people around you and your own chances for success will be much better.Ask them how they do it.Ask if they will help you get the work you’re looking for, or maybe give you some advice to help you on your career path.66.Which of the following would be the best title for this passage? A.A friend in need is a friend indeed B.How to make friendship last for ever C.You are who your friends are
D.Friends are the most important in one’s success

C.people have different attitudes towards the same thing D.young people have greater chances of succeeding
69.By taking the exercise mentioned in Paragraph 7, you can ______.A.improve a lot in making more friends B.come to the right way of making friendsC.develop a better relationship with your friends D.arrange the time with your friends properly 70.The passage is mainly written for ______.A.musiciansB.managersC.negative people

第五篇:口译unit five分析
Unit Five 礼仪性口译(英译汉)Interpreting ceremonial speeches English-Chinese Interpretation 5-1故地重游Revisiting the Old Haunt Ladies and gentlemen, 女士们、先生们:
Permit me first to thank you, our Chinese hosts, for your extraordinary arrangements and hospitality.My wife and I, as well as our entire party, are deeply grateful.首先,请允许我感谢中国主人的精心安排与好客。我与我夫人以及我团的全体随行人员都深为感激。
In the short period of six days, we have gone a longer distance than the world-renowned “Long March”.We have acquired a keen sense of the diversity, dynamism, and progress of China under your policies of reform and opening to the outside world.在短暂的6天里,我们的行程超过了举世闻名的“长征”。在改革开放政策引导下的中国,气象万千,充满活力,不断进步,这些我们都已强烈地感受到了。
My wife and I have a special regard and personal friendship for the people of China.Beijing is for us and old and nostalgic memorable time with the people here—working, shopping, sightseeing, and touring the city on our bicycles.During that time we never experienced anything other than the utmost courtesy and genuine friendship of the Chinese people.我与我夫人对中国人民怀有一种特殊的敬慕之情和个人友谊。对我们两人来说,北京是我们思念的故乡。10年前我们在此生活期间,我们与这里的人们一起度过了许多难忘的时光—我们在这里工作、购物、观光、骑自行车逛城。在那段日子里,我们所感受到的总是中国人民的高度礼貌和诚挚友情。
Those were happy days.They were good days, important days.We were part of the dramatic process which brought us back together and set us on the road to a genuine friendly and cooperative relationship.那是一些令人愉快的日子,一些美好的日子,一些意义重大的日子。我们参与了富有戏剧性的转变过程,这种转变使我们重新走到一起,使我们踏上了一条通往建立一种真诚友好的合作关系的道路。
Our friendly and cooperative ties have become extensive, affecting all aspect of our national lives: commerce, culture, education, and scientific exchange.我们友好合作关系的领域十分广泛,已深入到我们国家生活的所有方面:商业、文化、教育,以及科学交流。
I am most proud of the large number of Chinese students being educated in exchange in my country.I myself teach some of them and see the benefits that come from this exchange.At the same time we are learning valuable lessons from you.大批中国学生通过交流正在我国学习,我对此深感自豪。我自己也给一些学生上课,亲眼目睹了这种交流所产生的益处。与此同时,我们也从你们身上汲取了宝贵的经验。
Nonetheless, problems remain in our economic, education and strategic relations.While we are not so naïve as to believe that there are no issues of difference between us, I also believe that our differences are greatly overshadowed by issues which bind us and strengthen our relationship.然而,在我们经济、教育以及战略关系中仍然存在着问题。一方面,我们不会天真地以为我们之间不存在分歧,另一方面,我也认为那些将我们联系在一起并且强化我们关系的事务,在很大程度上弱化了我们之间的差异。
As a former government leader and now a private citizen, I recognize that many of the burdens and opportunities of our relationship have now passed to the non-governmental sectors of our two societies: to individuals, our corporations, universities, research institutes, foundations, and so on.There is no doubt that our relations have reached a new stage.In this context, it is important for our two societies to search for areas of cooperation which clearly add to our mutual benefit.作为一名前政府领导人,现在的一名普通公民,我感到我们关系中的许多重任和机遇已转到两国的民间机构,如个人、公司、大学、研究院、基金会等。毋庸讳言,我们的关系已进入了一个新的阶段。在这种形势下,寻求显然可以增进互惠互利的合作领域对我们两国来说显得十分重要。
My visit is a symbol of the good faith with which we seek to build up the strength of our friendship, our cultural and commercial ties and our important strategic relationship.Events of the past decade have confirmed time and time again that our friendship and cooperation will continue to flourish and yield more fruits in the days to come.我的访问是良好诚意的象征,我们怀着这种良好诚意,希望在友谊的基础上建立文化和商业关系,建立重要的战略关系。我们过去10年的交往一再证明,我们之间的友谊与合作将在未来岁月里持续发展并结出更多的果实。
5-2 愉悦之旅 A pleasant trip Respected Your Excellency, 尊敬的阁下,My Chinese friends, 中国朋友们:
Thank you very much for your kind words of welcome.This is a happy and memorable occasion for me personally as well as for the members of my delegation.我非常感谢阁下的友好欢迎词。对我本人以及代表团所有成员来说,这是愉快而难忘的一天。To come to China, one of the earliest cradles of civilization is, I suppose, the dream of many people the world over.I, therefore, feel very honoured to be your guest.访问古老文明摇篮之一的中国,我想这是世界上许多人梦寐以求的愿望。因而,我为自己能成为贵国的客人而感到荣幸。
In accepting Your Excellency’s gracious invitation to visit this great country, I have had an excellent opportunity to renew old friendships and establish new contacts.我接受阁下的盛情邀请访问这个伟大的国家,使我有极好的机会来重温旧情,结交新友。When we established our friendly and cooperative relations, we did so on the understanding that we would develop our friendship on the basis of mutual respect and equality, and mutual benefit.These are the principles on which we seek friendship with all peoples of the world.It is absolutely vital that all nations, big or small, strong or week, should conduct their relations with each other on these principles.我们过去建立友好合作关系时是基于这样一种认识,即我们要在相互尊重和平等互利的基础上发展我们的友谊。这些原则是我们寻求同世界各国人民建立友谊的出发点。所有国家,无论其大小强弱,都应该在这些原则的基础上处理相互间的关系,这是至关重要的。
We, therefore, welcome the interest and understanding that China has shown regarding the problems of and positions taken by small and developing countries.China’s support is a constant source of encouragement to us in the pursuit of the goals of developing and maintaining the independence of our country.我们因而欢迎中国关注和理解小国和发展中国家所遇到的问题以及所持的立场。中国的支持始终鼓励着我们去发展与保持我国独立的目标。It is my sincere hope that we can develop further, on the basis of mutual respect and mutual benefit, the links and the friendship that exist between our two countries.As we are both developing countries, having a common aspiration in improving the standard of life of our peoples, I look forward, in the next few days, to the opportunity of learning something from your endeavors and experience in promoting economic and social development in the service of your people.我真诚地希望我们能够在相互尊重、互惠互利的基础上进一步发展我们两国之间业已存在的联系和友谊。我们都是发展中国家,有着提高自己国民生活水平的共同愿望,所以,我期待在今后的几天里有机会向你们学习,从你们为造福贵国人民而促进经济和社会发展的奋斗和经验中学到一些东西。
I’d like to take this opportunity to extend to Your Excellency an invitation to visit my country, so that we will have an opportunity to return the warm welcome and generous hospitality you extended to us.我愿借此机会邀请阁下访问我国,以便我们能有机会回报你们给予我们的热情欢迎和盛情款待。
In closing, may I say again how delighted and privileged we are to be in your country.We are deeply grateful for what you have done for us since our arrival in your country.在我结束讲话之前,我想再说一遍,我们来贵国做客是多少的愉快和荣幸。对于我们抵达贵国后你们为我们所做的一切,我们深表感谢。May I propose a toast, 现在我祝酒,To the health of Your Excellency, 为阁下的身体健康,To the health of all the Chinese friends, 为所有中国朋友们的身体健康,To our lasting friendship.为我们永久的友谊。Cheers!干杯!
5-3共创未来Our Future Your Excellency Mr.President, 尊敬的主席阁下,Ladies and gentlemen, 女士们、先生们:
It gives me great pleasure to attend this luncheon, meeting all the friends, old and new.I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the National Committee on U.S.-China Relations and the U.S.-China Business Council, as well as others present here, for your dedicated efforts over the years to increase the understanding and friendship between the two peoples and to promote the relations between the two countries.我很高兴出席今天的午餐会,与新老朋友欢聚一堂。我愿借此机会感谢美中关系全国委员会、美中贸易全国委员会以及在座的诸位,感谢你们多年来为增进美中两国人民的相互了解与友谊、促进美中关系的发展所做的积极努力。
History beckons again.We have begun to write a new chapter for peace and progress in our histories, with America and China going forward hand-in-hand.今天,历史又在召唤。美中两国携手并进,已开始在我们的历史上为和平与进步谱写新的篇章。
We must always be realistic about our relationship, frankly acknowledging the fundamental differences in ideology and institutions between our two societies.Yes, let us acknowledge those differences;let us never minimize them;but let us not be dominated by them.I have not come to China to hold forth on what divides us, but to build on what binds us.I have not come to dwell on a closed-door past, but to urge that Americans and Chinese look to the beautiful future.I am firmly convinced that, together, we can and will make tomorrow a better day.我们必须始终现实地看待我们的关系,坦率地承认我们两个社会在意识形态和制度上存在着的根本差异。是的,让我们承认这些差异,让我们永远不要轻视这些差异,但是我们不要被这些差异所压倒。我来中国不是为了评说那些将我们分隔开来的东西,而且为了强化那些将我们维系在一起的做法;不是为了回顾封闭的过去,而是为了推动我们两国人民去展望美好的未来。我坚信,我们能够而且也一定会共同建设美好的未来。
We may live at nearly opposite ends of the world.We may be distinctly different in languages, customs, and political beliefs;but on many vital questions of our time there is little distance between the American and Chinese people.我们可以生活在近乎世界的两端,我们可以有两种截然不同的语言、习俗和政治信仰,但是在我们这个时代的许多至关重要的问题上,我们两国人民之间几乎没有距离。
Indeed, I believe if we were to ask citizens all over this world what they desire most for their children, and for their children’s children, their answer, in English, Chinese, or any other language, would likely be the same: We want peace.We want freedom.We want a better life.Their dreams, so simply stated, represent humanity’s deepest aspirations for security and personal fulfillment.And helping them make their dreams come true is what our jobs are all about.我的确相信,假若我们询问世界上的所有公民,他们最希望留下什么东西给他们的孩子,给他们孩子的孩子,那么他们的回答无论是用英语、汉语还是其他语言来表达,都可能是一致的:我们要和平,我们要自由,我们要更美好的生活。他们这此言简意赅的愿望代表着人类对安全以及满足个人意愿的最深切的要求。我们所要做的是去帮助他们实现自己的愿望。We have always believed the heritage of our past is the seed that brings forth the harvest of our future.And from our roots, we have drawn tremendous power from faith and freedom.Our passion for freedom led to the American Revolution.We know each of us could not enjoy liberty for ourselves unless we were willing to share it with everyone else.And we knew our freedom could not be truly safe, unless all of us were protected by a body of laws that treated us equally.我们一向认为,我们的历史传统是未来丰收的种子。我们一开始便从信仰和自由中汲取了巨大的力量。我们对自由的渴望导致了美国革命。我们明白,除非我们愿意同其他人一起分享自由,否则我们自己便无法享受自由。我们明白,除非我们大家都受到在其面前人人平等的法律的保护,否则我们的自由便不可能有真正的保障。
Trust the people—these three words are not only the heart and soul of American history, but the most powerful force for human progress in the world today.相信人民—这四个字不仅是美国历史的精髓,同时也是今日世界人类进步的最强大的动力。Like China, our people see the future in the eyes of our children.And, like China, we revere our elders.To be as good as our fathers and mothers, we must be better.同中国人一样,我国人民是从下一代的角度来审视未来的。同中国人一样,我们尊敬长辈。若要做得像前辈那样出色,我们就必须做得更出色。Over a century ago, Grant, who was then a former president, visited your country and saw China’s great potential.“I see dawning…”Grant wrote, “the beginning of a change.When it does come, China will rapidly become a powerful and rich nation… The population is industrious, frugal, intelligent, and quick to learn.” 一个多世纪前,当时已卸任的美国前总统格兰特访问了贵国。他看到中国蕴藏着巨大的潜力。“我看到了黎明的曙光,”格兰特写道,“我看到了变革的端倪。变革一旦出现,中国将迅速成为一个强盛而富裕的国家……中国人民勤奋、节俭、聪颖、接受能力强。”
Today, China’s economy crackles with the dynamics of change.Unlike some governments, which fear change and fear the future, China is beginning to reach out toward new horizons, and we salute your courage.今天,中国经济突飞猛进,日新月异。与一些惧怕变革、惧怕未来的国家不同,中国开始迈向新的高度,我们向你们表现出的这种勇气致敬。
We Americans have always considered ourselves pioneers, so we appreciate such vitality and optimism.Today, I bring you a message from my countrymen: As China moves forward on this new path, America welcomes the opportunity to walk by your side.我们美国人一向视自己为开拓者,所以我们赞赏你们的活力和乐观精神。今天,我给你们捎带来了我国同胞的口信:中国在这条新的道路上向前迈进,我们美国很高兴有机会同中国并肩前进。
I see America and our Pacific neighbors going forward in a mighty enterprise to build strong economies and a safer world.For our part, we welcome this new Pacific tide.Let it roll peacefully on, carrying a two-way flow of people and ideas that can break down barriers of suspicion and mistrust, and build up bonds of cooperation and shared optimism.我看到美国与其太平洋邻国正在所从事的伟大事业中向前迈进,这就是努力建设强大的经济和更为安全的世界。就我们而言,我们欢迎这股新的太平洋浪潮。让这股浪潮平顺地滚滚向前,促进人民和思想的双向交流,打破猜忌和不信任的障碍,建立合作关系,树立共有的乐观精神。
The future is ours to build.Thank you.未来靠我们去构筑。谢谢。
5-4新的长征A new long march Mr.President, 主席先生:
On behalf on all my colleagues present here, I wish to thank you for the incomparable hospitality for which the Chinese people are justly famous throughout the world.I particularly want to pay tribute, not only to those who prepared the magnificent dinner, but also to those who have provided the splendid music.我谨代表我在座的所有同事,对你们那独有的、著称于世的款待表示感谢。我不仅要特别感谢为我们准备晚宴的人们,而且还要特别感谢演奏优美音乐的人们。
These have been very pleasant days in China, and I’m happy that my visit should conclude in such a congenial atmosphere.我们在中国度过了十分愉快的时光,我很高兴我的访问能在如此融洽的气氛中结束。
Mr.President, I wish to thank you for your very gracious and eloquent remarks.At this very moment through the wonder of telecommunications, many people are hearing what we say today.Yet, what we say here will not be long remembered.But what we do here can change the world.主席先生,我要感谢您那热情洋溢、慷慨陈词的演讲。此时此刻,许多人正在通过神奇的电讯设备倾听着我们的讲话。然而,我们在这里所说的话很快便会被人们遗忘。但是,我们在这里所做的事却能改变世界。
So, let us start a long march together on different roads leading to the same goal, the goal of building a world structure of peace and justice in which all may stand together with equal dignity and in which each nation, large or small, has a right to determine its own form of government, its own course of development, free of outside interference or domination.所以,让我们沿着通往共同目标的不同道路,一起开始新的长征。这个目标就是建设一个和平与正义的世界,在这个世界里所有人都可以站在一起享有同等的尊严,所有国家无论其大小,都有权决定自己的政府形式,选择自己的发展道路,而不受外来干涉或统治。
We have a social and political system which differs in many respects from your own.It is the result of different experiences and a different tradition.This system of ours does not always produce results of which we all approve.People sometimes grumble at it and criticize it.But it is a political system deeply rooted in the instincts of our people.We do not aim to impose our own ideas on other people.We believe that it is right and necessary that people with different political and social systems should live side by side.We do not assess in identical fashion all aspects of today’s world—with our distinct histories, geographies and cultures it is inconceivable that we could see eye to eye on all issues—but we do agree on the fundamental need for world peace, and the equally fundamental need for all countries to determine their own fate and design their own future.我国的社会制度和政治制度在许多方面都与贵国的社会制度和政治制度不同。这是我们不同的经历和不同的传统造就的。我们的制度并不总是带来大家都赞同的结果。人们有时会报怨这种制度,批评这种制度。但是这种制度根深蒂固,已成为我国人民的意识与行为的本能。我们不想把自己的思想意识强加于人。我们认为,有着不同政治制度和社会制度的人们和平相处是正确而不必要的。我们没有用一种模式来评价当今世界的方方面面—由于我们有着截然不同的历史、地理和文化,很难想象我们会对所有问题都有一致的看法—但是我们彼此一致认为,世界和平是我们的基本要求,各国决定自己的命运、规划自己的未来也同样是我们的基本要求。
The world watches.The world listens.The world waits to see what we will do.世界注视着我们,世界倾听着我们,世界拭目以待我们的作为。
What legacy shall we leave our children? Are they destined to die painfully for the hatreds which have plagued the old world, or are they destined to live joyfully because we had the vision to build a new world? 我信要留给下一代什么遗产呢?他们是注定要痛苦地死于曾肆虐于旧世界的仇恨之中呢,还是因为我们曾有的缔造新世界的远见而必将要愉快地生活呢?
This is the hour.This is the day for us to rise to the heights of greatness which can build a new and better world.时不我待,这是一个攀登崇高理想、创造美好的新世界的时刻。
In that spirit, I ask all of you present to join me in raising your glasses to the friendship and cooperation of our own peoples which can lead to friendship and peace for all peoples in the world.本着这种精神,我敬请各位与我一起举杯,让我们为能够给全世界人民带来友谊与和平的我们两国人民之间的友谊与合作而干杯。Sentences in focus 1.Permit me first of all to thank you, our host, for your extraordinary arrangements and hospitality.首先请允许我感谢东道主的精心安排与好客。
