【参考译文】
在1972年,100万美元可真是一大笔钱。但对于住在巴黎的经营有方的美国古董商罗伯特•海克特而言,就一个精美的古希腊花瓶来说,他向纽约大都会博物馆开出的这个价钱并不算高。这只花瓶的历史比耶稣诞生还要早500年,是由当时一个公认的美术大家绘制的。自从那宗古希腊花瓶收购之后,古董的价格一路飙升。
然而,日益兴盛的古董买卖,其问题不在于价格离谱,而是远比价格更为重要的事情,那就是古董的来源。这些稀世珍宝来自何方?谁是其合法拥有者?日益增多的证据表明,越来越多的文物正在其所在国被非法挖掘。例如,最近英国对总数达546件文物的五大收藏进行了研究,确定其中82%来源可疑。从意大利到希腊到土耳其,许多国家长期来一直在抱怨走私文物交易,却多半无法加以阻止。SECTION 4: TRANSLATION TEST(2)

第二篇:2008年9月中级口译笔试真题答案
2008年9月中级口译答案高分版
Section 1: Listening Test Part A: Spot dictation Americans have four primary avenues for making friends—— at work, at school, through a hobby or a common interest such as volunteer work and discussion group or through a family or mutual friend connection.In American culture, a job is more than the work that one performs between the hours of 9 a.m.and 5 p.m.Work becomes a major socializing influence.Many young mothers who sacrifice their jobs to care for small children remark on the loneliness of their new lifestyles because they have lost their forum for adult interaction.A great number of American employers recognize business social potential and use it to build a family atmosphere on the job so that employees will feel comfortable and secure in their work environment.Some employers arrange company get-togethers in their home or at a local restaurant.American companies have at least one major function annually, usually at Christmas time.Many corporations have annual summer picnics where employees and administrators alike dress in jeans and T-shirts to play games, such as baseball and volleyball.Top American administrators often hold social gatherings in their own homes.Depending upon the size of the employer’s home and the number of his employees, these social gatherings may be picnics, pool parties, or formal banquets.If the company is large, an employer may hold what Americans call an open house.For an open house, the employer will invite his employees to come to his home anytime between 1 p.m and 6 p.m.on a certain day.Those invited usually stay for one to two hours, chatting with the other guests and their host.People come and go as they please during the designated hours, and the host keeps refreshments, usually light snacks or hors d’oeuvres and beverages, available for all who come.For such social gatherings, it is considered poor practice to refuse the invitation unless you have an excellent reason.Part B: Listening Comprehension 1.statements 1.B For me, taking a rest is better than surfing the Internet or shopping 2.C Usually new employees will not take such initiatives as Mr.Johnson does 3.B Could you say something on the subject of cost-effective publicity? 4.A Children will directly or indirectly affect what their parents purchase 5.C Although it is sugar-containing, the apple is a kind of healthy fruits.6.D The camera we bought is more expensive than I expected 7.A The problem of inflation could be worsened due to rising unemployment and wage explosion 8.D the tariff is a government tax on imported goods 9.A We had planned to sell $120000 worth of this new product 10.A The committee voted against the proposed projiect
2.Talks and Conversations 11.D Studying in a foreign country 12.C The rising cost of living through inflation 13.B The university bookstore 14.A She will use her study time more effectively 15.D A teacher 16.C She was anxious 17.B 120 18.D Her success 19.B He was on a business trip 20.C Agents and customers 21.A 220 22.D The lunch menu 23.C In driving, it is always safety that comes first 24.A because they may no judge speeds very well 25.D The handicapped 26.B slow down or stop to let people cross 27.C Programme writing 28.A A good self-controlled personality 29.B scientists and intellectuals 30.C The wide spaces between the words
Part C: Listening and Translation 1.Sentence Translation 1.Our online courses are open to the public for immediately enrolment.They include everything our students need for study.Our students love the quality as well as the convenience.2.In 1986, there were over 40 million computers in the world, while by 2006, that number climbed to about 800 million, a twenty-fold increase in two decades.3.In an age of fast communication via telephone and computer, face-to-face meetings might seem like wasting our time and energy.However, they are still an important part of doing business.4.There are ten clubs here representing foreign students on campus.Their main purpose is to get students from the same countries together, so we won’t get too homesick and can help each other.5.Listening is what we do first and most.The average person spends 45% of his daily communication time in listening, with the rest 55% in writing, reading and speaking.2.Passage Translation Passage One I am here tonight to wish your club a happy birthday.Now, I myself have reached that stage in life where I would like to have my birthdays remembered but not my age.I suppose I am what is called middle-aged, which is when you start eating what is good for you and not what you like.I am proud of your club because it is set up for our senior citizens.This is a place you can come to for peace and quiet, where you have tea and chat with people of your own age group.Passage Two Researchers have found that daily walking may improve sleep quality.They have also noticed that only those who exercise in the morning have the beneficial effects on sleep.Those who exercised in the evening actually had more trouble falling asleep.One possible explanation is that morning versus evening exercise may affect sleep quality.Morning exercise may get the body clock in good order, and evening exercise may upset it.However, more research is needed to confirm this theory.Section 2: Study Skills 1.D the rope was the symbol of law and order 2.B it changes the human characters 3.B it is rare 4.A the trading nations adopted the gold standard 5.D one could place more faith in gold than in politicians 6.B it is thin in proportion to the earth’s mass 7.C the outer layer is made of rock 8.D still in use 9.C there are active volcanic regions at the centre 10.B the Under world 11.A after consulting someone about her problems 12.C are not to be performed strenuously 13.B can be difficult to change 14.D recovered his vocal powers 15.C to suggest that back problems can be remedied.16.B waste disposal 17.A their wastes were covered over by nature 18.C shipping them as scrap to a steel mill for ne vehicles.19.C building more sewage disposal plants 20.D sludge 21.A sadness is a normal human emotion that serves a specific purpose 22.A the drug did not treat illnesses as it should 23.B grief over death 24.B loss of one’s mind 25.C reasonable 26.C stretched 27.D to suggest an anti-ageing approach that will reproduce itself 28.D death is the reality in nature people should come to terms with 29.A general readers 30.D reproduction is a useful alternative to longer life
Section 3: Translation Test(1)美国经济发展速度日益减缓,工作机遇日益凸显不稳定性。身为一所小型高校的校长,我时刻关注今年毕业生面临的就业市场。最新消息报道了贝尔斯登公司撤销了为商学院毕业生提供的数百个职位,这正是公司裁员的通常做法。而全美的大学也随之降低招生规模。但即使经济前景惨淡,今年的毕业生还是有望找到工作。诚然,众多公司纷纷裁员,但其中许多也正寻求新的人才,尤其是低端职位。超过百万的职场新人像潮水般涌入劳动力市场,学生们应该认识到,在全球市场环境下,语言技巧至关重要,灵活性也同样不可或缺。如果毕业生愿意接受起点低的工作,就工作要求做出一些让步,如果公司要求也不介意搬至其他城市工作,那么他就有可能得到一份工作。因此,即使失业情况日益严重,毕业生还是可以将找工作视作一份长远职业的第一次挑战。
Section 4: Translation Test(2)据消息灵通人士透露,今年春节前,家乐福才与新大新发生“第一次亲密接触”,其中广州市政府无疑起了“红娘”的作用。短短几个月时间,双方“情投意合”。外界关心的是:家乐福到底看中新大新什么地方?
对此,新大新总经理何先生没有作出正面的回应,只是笼统地陈述在广州的百货业中新大新有自己独特的一面。据何先生透露,这次新大新出资持有新组建的公司35%的股份,家乐福占65%:“这是按照国家有关部门政策,即中方持股不得少于35%的规定厘定的”。
As disclosed by a well-informed source, the “first intimate contact” between Carrefour and Xindaxin(XDX)was not conducted until the dawn of this year’s Spring Festival, with Guangzhou municipal government, not surprisingly, serving as the “matchmaker”.The contact quickly developed into “affinity” between the two parties within a short period of a few months.What is XDX’s appeal to Carrefour? This question is now the concern of the public.Mr.He, general manager of XDX, did not elaborate on direct response to this question.He stressed XDX’s “uniqueness” in Guangzhou’s retailing industry but with no specific details.As disclosed by Mr.He, XDX will hold 35% of the new joint venture’s shares, while Carrefour holding the rest 65%, which, is “in compliance with the policies decreed by state authorities concerned, i.e.Chinese companies should hold no less than 35% shares of a JV”.
第三篇:中级口译汉译英答案
2014秋季中口笔试汉译英解析
中华民族是由56个民族组成的大家庭。自古以来,我国各族人民就劳动、生息、繁衍在我们祖国的土地上,共同为中华文明和建立统一的多民族国家贡献自己的才智。悠久的中华文化,成为维系民族团结和国家统一的牢固纽带。
The Chinese nation is a huge family composed of 56 ethnic groups, all of whom, since ancient times, have labored, lived and multiplied on this vast land so as to offer their wit and might to the splendor of Chinese civilization and the construction of a unified multiethnic nation.The long-standing Chinese culture serves to maintain ethnic unity and national unification in a formidable manner.中华文明经历了5000多年历史变迁,始终一脉相承,延续着国家和民族的精神血脉,为中华民族生生不息、发展壮大提供了丰厚的滋养。随着中国经济社会不断发展,中华文明也必将顺应时代发展焕发出更加蓬勃的生命力。
The everlasting and expanding Chinese nation is richly nourished by the Chinese civilization which has undergone the vicissitudes of 5 millenniums, hence forming and passing down the spiritual bond of the country and the nation.As China’s economy and society grows, the Chinese civilization will surely display more vibrant vitality which answers to the call of the times.在句子结构的处理上,英译汉时需要频繁断句,而汉译英则常常需要将中文里的流水句进行粘合。第一段里,“中华民族是由56个民族组成的大家庭。自古以来,我国各族人民就劳动、生息、繁衍在我们祖国的土地上,共同为中华文明和建立统一的多民族国家贡献自己的才智。”行文较散,分析一下,句中“56个民族”和“我国各族人民”是同一对象,所以在译文中用“all of whom”插入语将两个句子粘结。
中文里有很多同义或近义词的叠加,在翻译过程中大可不必逐一译出,可采取减译的策略。如第二段“始终一脉相承,延续着„”其实表达的是一个意思,即“形成并传承”,所以处理为“forming and passing down„”这样的减译处理的句子比比皆是,比如“海峡两岸的中国人都是骨肉同胞,手足兄弟。”可译为“The Chinese on both sides of the Taiwan Straits are [of the same flesh and blood].”在英文中也有这样的同义或近义词叠加现象,比如“His father is a man who forgives and forgets.”其中“ forgives and forgets”既是起强调作用,也体现了头韵美,可译为“他父亲非常宽容。
2014年3月中级口译汉译英答案 原文:
国际金融危机爆以来,国际组织和各国政府、企业界和专家学者都在深刻反思,探究危机产生的原因,寻求世界经济和各国经济未来发展之路。对中国经济发展的成就,有喝彩的,也有怀疑的;对中国经济的未来,有看好的,也有唱衰的。对此,我们的头脑是清醒的,胸中是有数的,信心是坚定的。
我们坚持用改革的办法破解发展难题,不断完善社会主义市场经济体制。我们全面推进社会事业发展,覆盖城乡的社会保障体系初步形成,使“学有所教、劳有所得、病有所医、老有所养、住有所居”的理想逐步变成现实。参考译文:

文本节选自第五届夏季达沃斯论坛中温家宝出席开幕式时的演讲。此次演讲中,他清楚表明了关于中国未来发展的立场、政策,并传达了中国希冀与世界共同繁荣的美好愿景。原文表述通俗易懂,语言具有中国特色。在翻译时应当抓住句子的本质内涵,切忌按部就班、字字对译。对于“学有所教、劳有所得、病有所医、老有所养、住有所居”这类表述,应当做到清楚明了,句式符合英文语法。此外,考生还应注意译文与原文文风保持一致。
2013年9月中级口译汉译英答案 【原文】
自古以来,我国各民族人民劳动、生息、繁衍在祖国的土地上,各民族组之间建立了紧密的政治经济文化联系,早在两千多年前就形成了幅员辽阔的统一国家。悠久的中华文化,成为维系民族团结和国家统一的牢固纽带。
我们的先人历来把独立自主作为立国之本。中国作为人类文明发祥地之一,在几千年的历史进程中,文化传统始终没有中断。近代中国虽屡遭列强欺凌,国势衰败,但经过全民族的百年抗争,又以巨人的姿态重新站立起来。【参考译文】
From ancient times, our people of all ethnic groups have labored, lived, multiplied on this land, where closely-knitted political, economic and cultural links have been established.As early as two thousand years ago, we have built a unified nation with a vast territory.The long-standing Chinese cultures become a strong bond for ethnic harmony and national unity.Our ancestors were dedicated to the proposition of maintaining independence.As one of the cradles of human civilizations,China has all along maintained its cultural tradition without letup in the history of several thousand years.In modern times, the frequent bullying and humiliation by imperialist powers once weakened China.However, after a hundred year's struggle of the entire Chinese nation, China has stood up again as a giant.【评析】 这篇文章难度适中。一般源自领导人讲话材料,因此口译考试多关注国家领导发言稿。本篇重点在于一些关于民族历史和发展的固定搭配词汇。如:劳动、繁衍、生息、幅员辽阔的统一国家、纽带、发祥地等,因此注意积累相关固定表达。
2012年9月中级口译汉译英答案 【原文】
近代以来,亚洲经历了曲折和艰难的发展历程。亚洲人们为改变自己的命运,始终以不屈的意志和艰辛的奋斗开辟前进道路。今天,人们所看到的亚洲发展成就,是勤劳智慧的亚洲人民不屈不挠、锲而不舍奋斗的结果。
亚洲人民深知,世界上没有放之四海而皆准的发展模式,也没有一成不变的发展道路,亚洲人民勇于变革创新,不断开拓进取,探索和开辟适应时代潮流,符合自身实际的发展道路,为经济社会发展打开了广阔前景。【译文】
In modern times, Asia experienced twists and turns in its development.To change their destiny, the people of Asia have been forging ahead in an indomitable spirit and with hard struggle.Asia's development achievements today are the result of the persistent efforts of the industrious and talented Asian people.The people of Asia are fully aware that there is no ready model or unchanging path of development that is universally applicable.They never shy away from reform and innovation.Instead, they are committed to exploring and finding development paths that are in line with the trend of the times and their own situations, and have opened up bright prospects for economic and social development.【评析】
文中较难处理的句子有:“亚洲人们为改变自己的命运,始终以不屈的意志和艰辛的奋斗开辟前进道路。”其中“亚洲人们……开辟前进道路”是主干结构,“为改变自己的命运”表示目的,可以译成不定式to change their destiny放在句子前面,“以不同的意志和艰辛的奋斗”译成介词短语放在句尾。“放之四海而皆准的发展模式”的中心词是“模式”,修饰语“放之四海而皆准的”意为“普遍适用的”,可译为定语从句放在中心词后。最后一个句子较长,可根据句意进行拆分,确定主干词,对语序进行调整,以流畅的英文表达出来。
2012年3月中级口译汉译英答案 原文:
吸烟之危害,可谓大矣,其严重性是不能低估的。吸烟污染空气,损害健康,使肺癌发病率大大增加。为了使各国人民关注烟草的盛行及预防吸烟导致的疾病和死亡,世界卫生组织已将每年的5月31日定为“世界无烟日”。
瘾君子们说,一天饭不吃可以,一个时辰不抽烟就难捱了,不能戒。只要真正意识到吸烟有百害而无一利,于人于己都是一种祸害,就有可能下决心摆脱烟草的诱惑。戒烟贵在坚持,坚持下去就是收获。参考译文:
Smoking does great harm to human and its gravity should not be underestimated.Smoking pollutes air, damages health, and increases the incidence of lung cancer.To arouse the awareness about the prevalence of tobacco in all the countries and to prevent smoking-induced diseases and deaths, the WHO(World Health Organization)has defined May 31st in every year as World No-Tobacco Day.The tobacco addicts say that smoking is impossible to quit because they could do without meals in a day but would feel tortured without tobacco in two hours.However, when one realizes that smoking is harmful in many ways but beneficial in no way and that it is a curse to others as well as to he himself, he will be determined to resist the temptation of tobacco.To quit smoking requires persistence and so long as one persists, he’ll be rewarded.点评:
这篇文章的主题是大家都很熟悉的“戒烟”。开篇的一些比较文言化的词如“之”,“矣”,以及后面的习语“有百害而无一利”,“于人于己”等完全是“纸老虎”,大家根本不用害怕,只要将句子的大意弄懂,然后用白话文译出即可化解难题。另外如“世界卫生组织”这样的专有名词,切记不要译错,这种平时常见而考试常考的高频词,必须牢记。
2014APEC中国年26个关键词 领导人!价值链!自贸区!„„
时隔13年,亚太经合组织(APEC)又来中国开会了,这一次是在北京,现在真是举国皆说APEC。那么,到底谁是知识最渊博、认识最深入的小伙伴呢? 我们为此精心编撰了APEC中国年词典,掌握从A到Z的26个关键词,那个人可能就是你。To help people better understand the focus of the APEC Beijing meeting, Xinhua News Agency has prepared a list of 26 key words that define the gathering of the leaders of Asia-Pacific economies.APEC|亚太经合组织
1989年诞生的亚太经合组织联通了太平洋两岸,对接了新兴与发达经济体,让“亚太”从地理概念变成了一个如今经济总量占据全球半壁江山的经济合作体,成为全球最具增长活力和发展潜力的地缘经济板块。

第四篇:中级口译笔试复习方法
译考试的脚步越来越近了,考前两周的时间里,准备考试的你到底应该准备些什么呢?如果之前还没有开始好好复习,那从现在开始临阵磨枪吧!不到最后关头,绝不浪费任何复习机会!1.首先做一整套真题。
有很多同学复习的时候会选择分部分进行练习,这并不是不可取,但冲刺阶段,建议大家至少留两套完整真题。第一套在考前一个月左右做,另一套在考前三天到一周左右的时间做。在这之前,大家通过上课、做练习已经对自己的薄弱环节有一定的了解了,那么经过一段时间的积累,现在进展如何了呢?做这一套真题,帮你了解前一阶段的学习成果,细致定位薄弱环节:比如之前知道自己听力部分是弱项,经过一段时间的努力,Spot Dictation 错误率降低了,选择题基本没什么大问题了,句子听译也有明显的改善„„那么接下来就要研究一下错题,比如看一下Spot Dictation是因为单词听不清、不会拼而扣分还是因为跟不上而扣分。花相对多的时间在失误多的地方,不要盲目做真题、模拟题。此外,这个时候做完整的真题,要尽量掐好时间,以便在后面几周的复习中,针对性地加快做题速度。
2.弱项重点击破。
对自己的薄弱环节有了更清晰的认识之后,下一步当然是要针对性地突击了。上面也提到了,花相对多的时间在薄弱环节上,并不是说其他部分就可以放心不练了。手边有模拟题的同学,这段时间可以每天或者每两天做一套真题,然后针对薄弱环节着重练习。练习材料可以是教材,也可以是模拟题分项训练。总之,每天每部分都要练习到,薄弱部分多练一遍,坚持下去。
3.整理错题及知识点。
做了大量的练习,不进行错题整理以及笔记复习是万万不行的。练到后来可能速度是上去了,但正确率却迟迟上不去。所以,不论是平时练习还是考前冲刺,整理环节是必不可少的。错题整理一般包括单词和知识点的整理。Spot Dictation 以及听译部分的生词以及词组必整理,阅读理解部分感觉常出现但老是记不住的单词必整理,翻译部分生词以及重要词组必整理。此外,还需要注意整理一些小技巧,比如Spot Dictation中碰到的单词的连读、弱读,多整理一下其中的规则自然而然会有领悟,还有要注意翻译中用词的对比,比如说“加强”一词,就可以有strengthen, enhance, promote等等多个词与之对应,多积累一些这样的词在汉译英中才能避免用词重复。
4.考前两三天回顾。
这个时候再做一套真题,一是对冲刺阶段的学习成果检查,二是让自己适应考试氛围,所以这次的真题建议可以选择和真正考试相同时间段进行练习,及时调整好状态,积极应考。此外,参加考试必备的准考证、身份证、收音机、耳机、电池、笔等也需要仔细检查,提前做好准备。
第五篇:中级口译笔试部分练习8篇
Passage 1
I think Chinese businesspeople tend to have business negotiations in a rather indirect manner,as opposed to the more direct style of American businesspeople,who are said to work with the “get-down-to-business-first” mentality.The Chinese-type management encourages cooperation among employees,between the labor and the management,and gives employees a joy of participation and fulfillment,as well as a sense of pride in their work.And most Chinese try to find the meaning of life through working in their jobs,and view work as essential for having membership in a community.The American-type,or the top-down,management emphasizes efficiency,and competition among workers.The American work ethic seems to be more individual oriented.Traditionally,Americans work because it is the will of God,and often value the results and accomplishments of work more than its process.我认为中国人在商务谈判时倾向于使用一种迂回婉转的方式,而那些被认为在工作时具有一 种“公务为先”的心态的美国人则往往表现出较为直截了当的作风。中国式的管理方式鼓励员工之间的合作,也鼓励普通员工和管理人员之间的合作,使员工有一种喜悦的参与感和成就感,使他们对自己的工作产生一种自豪感。大多数中国人想从工作中找到生活的意义,他们将工作视为成为团体中一份子的必不可缺的条件。美国式的自下而上的管理方式注重效率,注重员工之间的竞争。美国人的工作观有较强的个体取向性。美国人一直认为,工作是秉承了上帝的意志,对工作成果的重视常常高于对工作过程的重视。
Passage 2
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.My wife and I have a special regard and personal friendship for the people of China.Beijing is for us an old and nostalgic home.During our stay here ten years ago we spent a great deal of memorable time with the people here——working,shopping,sightseeing,and touring the city on our bicycles.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.Nonetheless,problems remain in our economic,education and strategic relations.While we are not so naive 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.在短暂的六天里,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,这些我们都已强烈的感受到了。我和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。十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。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。然而,我们在经济、教育以及战略关系中仍然存在着问题。一方面,我们不会天真的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。
Passage 3
The Washington National Cathedral is one of the largest and most famous religious centers in the United States.It belongs to the Episcopal Church.The official name of the building id the Cathedral Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul.The National Cathedral was built with money from private citizens.The work started in 1907,and the Cathedral was not completely finished until 1990.The first stone was laid in the presence of President Theodore Roosevelt.Every President of the United States since then has attended services or visited the Cathedral.It looks like many of the great religious centers built in Europe about 800 years ago.The building is shaped like a cross or the letter T.in the center is a bell tower 91 meters high.Two more towers stand at the bottom of the cross.Two hundred windows are set high in the walls of the National Cathedral.Most are made of many pieces of colored glass.They color the sunlight as it enters the building and spills across the floor.Some windows have flower designs.Others have images from Christian stories or from American heroes.华盛顿国家大教堂是美国规模最大、最负盛名的宗教中心之一,隶属主教派教会。该建筑的正式名称是圣彼得和圣保罗大教堂。国家大教堂是由私人赞助建造起来的。工程开始于1907年,直到1990年才完全竣工。奠基石是当着当时西奥多。罗斯福总统的面放置的。从那以后的每一任美国总统都参加过这里举行的宗教礼仪活动,或参观过大教堂。大教堂看起来像欧洲许多建于800年前的宗教大中心,形状像个“十”字,或像字母T,中间耸立了一座高达91 米的钟楼,另外两座塔楼坐落在十字形底部。200扇窗户高高的嵌在国家大教堂的墙上。大多数窗都由多块彩色玻璃拼成,射入建筑内的阳光被彩色玻璃染得五彩缤纷,洒落在大教堂一侧的地坪上,有些窗户有花卉图案,有些窗的画面则是一些有关基督教的故事或美国历史英雄的形象。Passage 4
Innovation starts at the top,and it is important for leaders to create an environment where innovation is constant,where people have the skills and incentives to think creatively.In doing so,you attract talents that want to contribute to that environment,creating a virtuous cycle for the company.Shanghai’s leadership has worked hard to create an environment where businesses can succeed.For example,Shanghai’s transportation links to the world,including Pudong International Airport and the new deep water port facility,have achieved world-class status We live in an era where innovation is central to economic growth and prosperity.It is comfortable to hold onto the old ways of doing business.But innovation is hard because it usually leads to change.Innovation requires new ideas,new processes,and new institutions.New technologies and approaches can radically change an existing market,creating new customers and competitions.But innovation and its accompanying disruption can be managed through good leadership,a long term strategy,and good people.President Hu Jintao stated at the beginning of this year that “Innovation is the core of the nation’s competitiveness.”
创新从领导层开始做起。领导层必须营造一个可以不断创新的环境,以激励人们的创新思维。这样的环境可以吸引那些乐于创新的人才,从而使公司得到良性发展。上海的领导努力为企业营造可取得成功的环境。例如,浦东国际机场和新的深水港等设施的建立,使上海与世界的交通连接达到了世界级的水平。我们生活在一个以创新驱动经济发展和繁荣的时代。墨守成规确实舒服惬意,而改革创新则困难重重,因为创新往往引发变革。创新需要新思想,新程序和新机制。新技术和新方法会剧烈的改变现行的市场秩序,既带来新的公司客户,也带来新的竞争对手,但是,如果我们有英明的领导,长期的战略以及优秀的人才,创新活动及其所伴随的冲击是可控的。******主席在年初时曾说过:“创新是国家的核心竞争力。”
Passage 5
What will the role of universities be in this globalized economy? How will they contribute to improving society through innovation that will improve the quality of life and support economic growth? How will they prepare their graduates who will extract the best and explore the greatest in this increasingly complex society? It is important to remember that undergraduate education and post-graduate education are tightly linked to research.Our education programs should ensure that the students are learning in an atmosphere characterized by the pursuit of new knowledge and process of discovery.An interrelated educational program will create a flow of young,bright and uninhibitedminds to work on the frontier of discovery.The fundamental mission of a university is the creation of new knowledge which sometimes has immediate practical applications.But that can never be the only goal.And making it a primary goal will frequently be short-sighted.Basic contributions to knowledge should be valued for being exactly that.Our university has an almost unique role in fostering such contribution.Choosing the right people is the first and perhaps the most crucial step in ensuring an innovative environment.There are three types of people that can be important.The first class of individuals consists of fanciful visionaries.The second class of important people in innovative environment consists of revolutionary explorers.The third class of individuals consists of uninhibited executors.在这个经济全球化的时代背景下,大学将扮演怎样的角色呢?大学将如何通过旨在提高生活质量、推动经济发展的创新活动进而推动社会的进步呢?在这个日新月异、充满变数的社会,大学又将如何培养那些善于取精用弘的学生呢?我们应该认识到,本科生教育和研究生教育都与研究紧密相连。我们的教育应该为学生创造一种可以探寻新知识、带来新发现的氛围,将教学与研究融合在一起的教育可以培养一批活跃在探索前沿、聪颖开放的青年才俊。大学最根本的使命就是创造新知识,虽然大学所创造的新知识有时会立即产生实际应用价值,但这决不是大学所追求的唯一目标。将获取实际应用价值的目标定位大学的主要目标是一种短视行为。基础研究也同样是大学的使命,而且大学在推动基础研究方面能发挥独特的作用。选对人是确保创新型研究环境的首要因素,也是最为关键的因素。选人要选三种人:第一种人是想法活跃的思想家,第二种人是富有革命精神的探索家,第三种人是不受常规约束的实干家。Passage 6
中国国际出版集团是中国最大的、最权威的外语出版发行单位,其前身是中央人民政府新闻出版署国际新闻局。我集团坚持“让中国走向世界,让世界了解中国”的出版原则,全心致力于中国外语教育与研究事业的发展,全心致力于中外文化交流事业的拓展。为了加强对出版人才队伍的建设,为了满足日益增长的特殊出版业务的需要,我集团每年都要选派一些青年员工到国内外知名高等学府和研究机构进修,根据我们的发展战略,我们会将前进的步伐迈出国界走向世界,瞄准海外读者群,这一战略已取得了良好的开局。
The China International Publishing Group is the largest and the most authoritativeforeign language publishing and distribution establishment,its predecessor being the International Press Bureau of the Central People’s Government Press and Publication Administration.Adhering to the publishing philosophy of “assisting China’s march to the world and facilitating world’s understanding of China”,the Group commits itself entirely to promoting foreign language education and research in China and advancing cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries.In order to build up a strong team of publishing staff,as well as to meet the growing need of more technically demanding business,the Group makes it a rule that young staff be selected and sent to noted universities and research institutions,both domestic and overseas,for further studies.As is clearly spelled out in our new development strategy,we will go beyond our national boundaries and wedge ourselves into the world circulation market,aiming at the international readership.Our initial efforts have been very rewarding.Passage 7
改革开放30 年来,随着中国逐渐崛起成为政治经济强国,海外人士学习汉语的现象与日俱增,海外孔子学院也成了人们学习中国语言和中国文化的首选之地。通过学习汉语,他们对这个和自己文化大相径庭的古老文明产生了浓厚的兴趣,而且有机会了解中国的哲学、艺术、医学、饮食文化,亲身体验这个文明古国的风采。作为第二文化,中国文化也丰富了他们的生活和世界观。可以说,这个潮流方兴未艾。越来越多的学习汉语的美国人除了对中国菜肴赞不绝口之外,也在尝试针灸,草药和武术。他们也看功夫电影,学习东方时装潮流和手工艺,不知不觉的在日常生活中谈及中国的点心,人参、银杏,乌龙茶等。目前在美国最热门的中国文化是道家学说和有着神秘色彩的风水学.As China is rising as a political and economic world power,thanks to its three-decade reform and opening up,more and more people in overseas countries start to learn Chinese and turn to a Confucius Institute in their own countries as their first choice learning Chinese language and Chinese culture.During the learning process,the learners concurrently develop their interest in this ancient land,whose civilization is so vastly different from theirs.And the learners have opportunities to learn about Chinese philosophy,art,architecture,medicine and catering culture and experience first-hand the splendors of this venerablecivilization.As the second culture,Chinese culture has enriched the life and world outlook of the learners.This trend,so to speak,is gathering momentum and is there to stay.Apart from their love for Chinese cuisine,more and more American learners of Chinese language are turning to Chinese acupuncture,herbal medicines,martial arts.They are also interested in kongfu films,fashions and crafts.Seemingly outlandishwords such as dim sum,ginseng,gingko,oolongcha have crept into their everyday language.The latest Chinese cultural icons to make its impact there are Taoism,and ancient school of thought,and fengshui,an ancient art of placement.Passage 8
过去10年,海平面升高和森林砍伐的速度都是前所未有的;生态恶化、物种灭绝、臭氧层被破坏、温室效应、酸雨等一系列环境问题已经严重影响到人类的生存环境。环境恶化造成的问题之一就是缺水。目前全世界40%以上的人口,即20 多亿人,面临缺水问题。据预测,未来25 年全球人口将由60 亿增长到80 亿,环境保护面临更大的压力。中国作为一个发展中国家,面临着发展经济和保护环境的双重任务。从国情出发,中国在全面推进现代化的过程中,将环境保护视为一项基本国策。众所周知,对生态环境和生物多样性的保护是环保工作的重点。我国野生动植物物种丰富,仅脊椎动物就有6000 多种左右,高等植物3 万多种。
Sea level rose and forest were destroyed at an unprecedented rate during the last decade.A series of environmental problems such as the deterioration of ecosystem,the extinction of bio-species,damage to the ozone layer,the green-house effect,acid rain,have posed a serious threat to human living conditions.Environmental crisis leads to one of the serious problems,namely,water shortage.Presently,more than 40% of the world’s population,more than 2 billion people,now face water shortage.It is predicted that with the global population expected to increase from six billion to eight billion over the next 25 years,more pressure on environmental protection stress is expected.As a developing country,China is confronted with the dual task of developing the economy and protecting the environment.Proceeding from its national conditions,China has,in the process of promoting its overall modernization program,made environmental protection one of its basic state policies.It is known to all that protection of the ecological environment and biodiversity is the focal point of environmental protection work.China is rich in wildlife species.There are about 6,000 vertebrates alone and 30,000 species of higher plants.
