2004年5月翻译三级笔译(实务)全真试卷

Parents are required by law to see that their children

receive full-time education, at school or elsewhere, between the

ages of 5 and 16 in England, Scotland and Wales and 4 and 16 in

Northern Ireland. About 93 percent of pupils receive free

education from public funds, while the others attend independent

schools financed by fees paid by parents.

Many, aged 3-4 years, children attend nursery schools and

classes (or, in England, reception classes in primary schools).

Pre-school education may also be provided in some private day

nurseries and pre-school playgroups (which are largely organized

by parents).

The Government has stated its commitment to a major expansion of pre-school education and wants all children to begin school

with a basic foundation in literacy and numeracy. From September

1998 it is providing free nursery education in England and Wales

for all 4 year olds whose parents want it, and is committed to

staged targets for provision for 3 year olds thereafter. Local

education authorities, in partnership with private and voluntary

providers, have drawn up "early years development plans" for

securing these objectives. The plans are designed to show how co-

operation between private nurseries, playgroups and schools can

best serve the interests of children and their parents. From April 1999, early years development partnerships and plans will be

expanded to deliver quality childcare integrated with early

education. In addition, the Government is working with local

authorities and others in England to establish "early excellence

centers" designed to demonstrate good practice in education and

childcare.

In Scotland, local education authorities have been taking the leading role, from August 1998, in planning and co-ordinating pre-school education and in providing places, working in partnership

with voluntary and private providers. The Government planned to

give all children in the pre-school year access to quality, part-

time education by the winter of 1998.

Northern Ireland has a lower compulsory school age of 4 and a single school entry date in September each year. A pre-school

education expansion programme, undertaken through partnership

between the education and library boards, other statutory

providers and the private and voluntary sectors, has provided

additional pre-school places.

答案:

按照法律规定,在英格兰、苏格兰和威尔士,家长一定要使自己的孩子在5岁至16岁期间在学校或其它地方接受全日制教育,在北爱尔兰则为4岁至16岁。大约93%的学生享受公家提供经费的免费教育,其他学生上独立学校,这种学校靠学生家长缴费来筹措经费。

许多三、四岁的孩子上幼儿园和幼儿班(在英格兰还有小学校里的小班)。某些民办的日托幼儿园和学前游戏小组(大都是家长组织的)也提供学前教育。

政府已做出承诺,要大力发展学前教育,使所有的儿童在开始上学的时候在识字和识数方面都有一点基础。在英格兰和威尔士,政府从1998年9月开始为所有4岁的孩子提供免费幼儿教育,如果他们的父母需要的话。政府还承诺,随后要分阶段实现为三岁的孩子提供免费幼儿教育的目标。为达到这些目标,地方教育当局与民间志愿办学者合作,已制定出“早期教育发展计划”。制订这类计划意在表明民办幼儿园、游戏小组和学校可以怎样通过合作来最好地为孩子和家长服务。从1999年4月起,早期教育发展组织和发展计划将扩大范围,以提供与早期教育相结合的优良的儿童保健。此外,政府还在英格兰与地方当局以及其它部门合作建立“优秀早期教育中心”,以展示教育与儿童保健方面的好的做法。

在苏格兰,地方教育当局一直领导这方面的工作。1998年8月以来,他们与民间志愿办学者合作,进行规划,协调学前教育,提供更多名额。政府计划在1998年冬季前使所有的儿童在上学前一年享受到良好的非全日制教育。

北爱尔兰义务教育入学年龄较低,为4岁,每年9月学生按统一日期入学。一项由教育局与图书馆管理局、其它法定办学单位和民间志愿办学者联合执行的学前教育发展计划已经增加了学前教育学生的名额。

1.see that务必使……,保证,注意,专心[分析]理解结构采分点。短语see that:make sure;take care务必使……,保证,注意,专心在本文中表示“要确保,(务必)使……”

2.full-time education全日制教育[分析]基本素质采分点。full-time(工作、学习等)全部规定时间;(足球等的)比赛结束full-time education是固定的专有名词,要用公认的名称来译。[对照]part-time education非全日制教育;compulsory education义务教育;free education免费教育

3.Parents are required by law to see that their children receive full-time education,at school or elsewhere,between the ages of 5 and 16 in England,Scotland and Wales and 4 and l6 in Northern Ireland.按照法律规定,在英格兰、苏格兰和威尔士,家长一定要使自己的孩子在5岁至16岁期间在学校或其它地方接受全日制教育,在北爱尔兰则为4岁至l6岁。[分析]理解结构采分点。此句是个复合句。主句是个被动语态结构,that引导一个宾语从句,之后又分

别带有地点状语和时间状语。要分析其语法结构来理解词义,但翻译时要根据汉语的语言习惯来译,词序也要作相应的调整:汉译时,英语中的一些状语可放到主句之前;被动语态有时在汉语中不必译出。

4.About 93 percent of pupils receive free education from public funds,while the others attend independent schools financed by

fees paid by parents.大约93%的学生享受公家提供经费的免费教育,其他学生上独立学校,这种学校靠学生家长缴费来筹措经费。[分析]理解结构采分点。这是一个由连词while连接的并列句。independent schools后有分词短语financed by fees

paid by parents,可将句子断开来译。另外还要注意英语中有些词用法很活,要根据上下文的不同而变换译法和词性;此外还要根据汉语习惯来扩展释义,将话说完整。本句中的receive译成“享受”,from不要译成“来自”而是译成“由”,中间可增加“提供的”,funds可译成“投资或经费”;前半句即可译成:……享受由公家(政府)提供的免费教育。finance在此不是名词“财政,金融”,而是动词,译成“负担经费”,fees paid by parents译成:靠学生家长交费。

5.The Government has stated its commitment to a major expansion

of pre-school education and wants all children to begin school

with a basic foundation in literacy and numeracy.政府已做出承诺,要大力发展学前教育,使所有的儿童在开始上学的时候在识字和识数方面都有一点基础。[分析]理解结构采分点。翻译此句时要根据汉语的语言习惯来译,词性要作相应的转换,如将名词译作动词:a major expansion of pre-school education大力发展学前教育;介词译作动词,而将原来的动词不定式译成介词短语:wants all children to begin school with a basic foundation使所有的儿童在开始上学的时候……都有一点基础。并将in literacy and numeracy译作“在识字和识数方面”。

6.…and is committed to staged targets for provision for 3 year olds thereafter.政府还承诺,随后要分阶段实现为三岁的孩子提供免费幼儿教育的目标。[分析]用词选词采分点。根据上下文staged targets在此译作:分阶段实现……的目标。

7.Local education authorities,in partnership with private and voluntary providers,have drawn up“early years development

plans”for securing these objectives.地方教育当局与民间志愿办学者合作,已制定出“早期教育发展计划”。[分析]用词选词采分点。in partnership with在此译作:与……合作;providers供应者,提供者,在此译作“志愿(协助政府的)办学者”。8.The plans are designed to show how co-operation between private nurseries,playgroups and schools can best serve the interests of children and their parents.制订这类计划意在表明民办幼儿园、游戏小组和学校可以怎样通过合作来最好地为孩子和家长服务。[分析]理解结构采分点。英译汉时,经常根据汉语的习惯把英语的被动语态转为主动或反过来。本句应译为:制订这类计划旨在表明……。

9.From April 1999,early years development partnerships and plans will be expanded to deliver quality childcare integrated with

early education.从1999年4月起,早期教育发展组织和发展计划将扩大范围,以提供与早期教育相结合的优良的儿童保健。[分析]理解结构采分点。本句中的integrated with early education是分词短语作定语,在翻译时只需将它放到所修饰的中心词前即可,(提供)与早期教育相结合的(……儿童保健)。

10.In Scotland.local education authorities have been taking the leading role,from August 1998,in planning and co-ordinating pre-school education and in providing places,working in partnership with voluntary and private providers.在苏格兰,地方教育当局一直领导这方面的工作。1998年8月以来,他们与民间志愿办学者合作,进行规划,协调学前教育,提供更多名额。[分析]理解结构采分点。本句虽是个简单句,但带有许多短语(状语);我们翻译时,常常将这些短语转化成汉语中的句子;同时注意为了意思的连贯和通顺,要变换译法和顺序。如上面:in planning and co-ordinating pre-school education and in providing places,working in partnership with voluntary and private providers可译成:(他们)与民间志愿办学者合作,进行规划,协调学前教育,提供更多名额。

11.The Government planned to give all children in the pre-school year access to quality,part-time education by the winter of 1998.[分析]用词选词采分点。access to有权使用,常与get,have,give等词连用;在此

PART 2 Chinese-English Translation (40 points) Translate the following passage into English. The time for this part is 60 minutes. 该题您未回答:х 该问题分值: 1

give access to 可译作:使……享受到。

12.Northern Ireland has a lower compulsory school age of 4 and a

single school entry date in September each year .北爱尔兰义务教育入学年龄较低,为4岁,每年9月学生按统一日期入学。[分析]理解结构采分点。此句又为转性译

法——在翻译过程中将原文的词性进行转换。将原文中的形容词lower 变成副词“较低”,将名词短语译成动词短语:a single school entry date 按统一日期入学。

13.A pre-school education expansion programme ,undertaken through partnership between the education and library boards, other

statutory providers and the private and voluntary sectors ,has

provided additional pre-school places .一项由教育局与图书馆管理局、其它法定办学单位和民间志愿办学者联合执行的学前教育发展计划已经增加了学前教育学生的名

额。[分析]理解结构采分点。本句是断句译法。句中的undertaken......boards 部分

是个分词短语,在翻译时将它译成定语,并将它放到所修饰的中心词前即可。本句中

other statutory providers 不译作“其它法定的提供者”,而是根据上下文译成“其它法定办学单位”。

向一位著名的女作家祝贺她八十岁寿辰,这样的机会是不多的,所以我去年十月五日到冰心家里去的时候,心情非常激动。我解释说希望她给我讲一下她是怎样成为诗人的。“我已有多年没有写诗了,”她微笑说,“可是我还是爱读好诗。”

冰心很幸运地有鼓励她学习和写作的父母。一九一九年她在北京一所女子学院念书时,一个事件改变了她生命的整个道路。那就是五四运动,一个由北京学生发动的爱国民主运动。群众游行示威的场面给她以深刻的印象。她投身于斗争中,并被学生会任命负责宣传工作。她写了诗歌、文章和故事,以抨击帝国主义和各种形式的封建主义。

她在1923年到美国去学文学,在旅途中和在美国居留中写下了她的感受。这些都收在一个集子里出版,就是《寄小读者》。这本书使她声誉突起。这不仅是因为她是一位女作家,而是因为书中的高尚的情操。有不少较年轻的作家说,是冰心的作品使他们走上了其后所走的道路。

2. 答案:

It isn't often that one has the chance to

congratulate a noted woman writer on her 80th

birthday. So on October 5 last year, when I went to

Bing Xin's house, I felt very excited. I explained

that I hoped she would tell me something about how she became a poet. "I haven't written poetry for many

years," she said smiling. "But I still love to read

good poetry."

Bing Xin was fortunate to have parents who

encouraged her to study and write. When she was

attending a women's college in Beijing in 1919, an

event occurred which changed the whole course of her life. That was the May 4th Movement, a patriotic democratic movement started by students in Beijing. The mass demonstrations made a deep impression on her. She threw herself into the struggle and was put in charge of publicity by the Student Union. She wrote poems, articles and stories, attacking imperialism and feudalism in its various forms.

Going to the U.S. in 1923 to study literature, she wrote down her impressions on the way and during her stay there. These were published in the collection To Little Readers. The book brought her instant fame, not only because she was a woman writer, but also because of the noble sentiments in the book. Quite a few younger writers say it was Bing Xin's writings that started them on the road they have since followed.

[模拟] 翻译三级笔译实务模拟25 Section ⅠEnglish Chinese Translation Translate the following two passages into Chinese . 第1题: Acid rain, is a form of air pollution, currently a subject of great controversy because of widespread environmental damage for which it has been blamed. It forms when oxides of sulfur and nitrogen combine with atmospheric moisture to yield sulfuric and nitric acids, which may then be carded long distances from their source before they are deposited by rain. The pollution many also take the form of snow or fog or be precipitated in dry forms. In fact, although the term "acid rain" has been in use for more than a century — it is derived from atmospheric studies that were made in the region of Manchester, England — the more accurate scientific term would be "acid deposition." The dry form of such precipitation is just as damaging as the liquid form, especially to trees and structures. Furthermore, some of the pollutants also associated with acid rain are not themselves acidic. The problem of acid rain may be said to have originated with the Industrial Revolution, and it has been growing ever since. The severity of its effects has long been recognized in local settings, as exemplified by the spells of acid smog in heavily industrialized areas. The wide destructiveness of acid rain, however, has come to be realized only in recent decades. One large area that has been studied extensively is northern Europe, where acid rain has eroded structures, injured crops and forests, and threatened or depleted life in freshwater lakes. In 1983, for example, published reports indicated that 34 percent of the forested areas of West Germany had been damaged by acid rain. The northeastern U.S. and eastern Canada have also been affected by this form of pollution, and other areas of the two countries are also showing increasing signs of damages, as are other regions of the world. Industrial emissions have been blamed as the major cause of acid rain. Because the chemical reactions involved in the production of acid rain in the atmosphere are complex and as yet little understood, industries have tended to challenge such assessments and to stress the need for further studies; and because of the cost of pollution reduction, governments have tended to support this attitude. Studies released by the U.S. government in the early 1980s, however, strongly implicated industries as the main source of acid rain._____________

Nature and Art Nature contains the elements, in colour and form, of all pictures, as the keyboard contains the notes of all music. But the artist is born to pick, and choose, and group with science, these elements, that the result may be beautiful—as the musician gathers his notes, and forms his chords, until he brings forth from the chaos glorious harmony. To say to the painter, that Nature is to be taken as she is, is to say to the player, that he may sit on the piano… The dignity of the snow-capped mountain is lost in distinctness, but the joy of the tourist is to recognize the traveller on the top. The desire to see, for the sake of seeing, is, with the mass, alone the one to be gratified, hence the delight in detail. And when the evening mist clothes the riverside with poetry, as with a veil, and the poor buildings lose themselves in the dim sky, and the tall chimneys become campanili, and the warehouses are palaces in the night, and the whole city hangs in the heavens, and fairy-land is before us—then the wayfarer hastens home; the working man and the cultured one, the wise man and the one of pleasure, cease to understand, as they have ceased to see, and Nature, who, for once, has sung in tune, sings her exquisite song to the artist alone, her son and her master—her son in that loves her, her master in that he knows her. To him her secrets are unfolded, to him her lessons have become gradually clear. He looks at her flower, not with the enlarging lens, that may gather facts for the botanist, but with the light of the one who sees in her choice selection of brilliant tones and delicate tints, suggestions of future harmonies. He does not confine himself to purposeless copying, without thought, each blade of grass, as commended by the inconsequent, but, in the long curve of the narrow leaf, corrected by the straight tall stem, he learns how grace is wedded to dignity. How strength enhances sweetness, that elegance shall be the result.

I leave the vault, and as the guard closes the door, a marine archaeologist asks if I want to see anything else. As an example he shows me an astrolabe, a navigation tool that preceded the sextant. Few have survived. "We have three of the oldest known," he says. He directs me to a paper on astrolabes written by a Cuban colleague, who quoted a 16th-century instruction: "He who wants to take the sun with an astrolabe at sea, must be seated near the main mast, the place where the boat oscillates the least and is quiet." I want to take the measure of Cubas past, so I tell the archaeologist I would like to go to the place where the plain things are. I am here not only to see treasures that glitter but also to see and touch objects that illumine moments of the past. Smiling, he takes me into storage rooms where he and other archaeologists preserve cargoes from four centuries of wrecks. Jumbled on these shelves is the stuff of Cubas long reign as counting house and command center for Spains New World colonies. I see knickknacks destined for one of the annual 18th-century trade fairs, where Cubans bought imports from Spain. I also see, pallid from centuries in the sea, dozens of little painted ceramic dogs, lions, cats, and deer later shipped from England. Stacked nearby are sets of dinner dishes, tankards, an hourglass, a bottle of very Old Spanish wine. On another day, in fading light, I walk the ramparts of El Morro, its lighthouse standing tall over Havanas harbor. The old fortress, by day a warren of tourist stops, changes by night, looming deeper into the shadows of Havanas past. As torches light the darkness, I watch Cuban soldiers, costumed as 18th-century Spanish sentries, march along the ramparts of the Castillo de San Carlos and fire a cannon that salutes

翻译三级笔译实务模拟

翻译三级笔译实务模拟27 Section Ⅰ English Chinese Translation 1、As the importance of recycling becomes more apparent, questions about it linger. Is it worth the effort? How does it work? Is recycling waste just going into a landfill in China? Here are some answers. It is an awful lot of rubbish. Since 1960 the amount of municipal waste being collected in America has nearly tripled, reaching 245m tonnes in 2005. According to European Union statistics, the amount of municipal waste produced in western Europe increased by 23% between 1995 and 2003, to reach 577kg per person. (So much for the plan to reduce waste per person to 300kg by 2000.) As the volume of waste has increased, so have recycling efforts. In 1980 America recycled only 9.6% of its municipal rubbish ; today the rate stands at 32%. A similar trend can be seen in Europe, where some countries, such as Austria and the Netherlands, now recycle 60% or more of their municipal waste. Britain's recycling rate, at 27%, is low, but it is improving fast, having nearly doubled in the past three years. Even so, when a city introduces a kerbside recycling programme, the sight of all those recycling lorries trundling around can raise doubts about whether the collection and transportation of waste materials requires more energy than it saves. "We are constantly being asked: Is recycling worth doing on environmental grounds?" says Julian Parfitt, principal analyst at Waste & Resources Action Programme (WRAP), a non-profit British company that encourages recycling and develops markets for recycled materials. Studies that look at the entire life cycle of a particular material can shed light on this question in a particular case, but WRAP decided to take a broader look. It asked the Technical University of Denmark and the Danish Topic Centre on Waste to conduct a review of 55 life-cycle analyses, all of which were selected because of their rigorous methodology. The researchers then looked at more than 200 scenarios, comparing the impact of recycling with that of burying or burning particular types of waste material. They found that in 83% of all scenarios that included recycling, it was indeed better for the environment. Based on this study, WRAP calculated that Britain's recycling efforts reduce its carbon-dioxide emissions by 10m-15m tonnes per year. That is equivalent to a 10% reduction in Britain's annual carbon-dioxide emissions from transport, or roughly equivalent to taking 3.5m cars off the roads. Similarly, America's Environmental Protection Agency estimates that recycling reduced the country's
