Jessica was 35 years old. She graduated from middle school 20 years ago. This year her middle school class had its 20th year class for reunion. All of her classmates and teachers were invited to attend. It's to going to be held at the hotel, near where their school used to be. Like many other buildings, the school had been torn down. It had been replaced by some of the apartment buildings.
At first, she wasn't sure if she could go to the reunion. One reason was that there wasn't anyone in particular that she wanted to see. Another reason was that she was very busy. She was a working mother, with a boy 8 years old and her husband who was rarely at home. Going to the reunion meant that she would have to arrange someone to tak e care of things while she was away. That wouldn't be easy. She didn't want to take her boy with her and her husband wouldn't take time off from work.
Then she got a message from Sharon, one of her classmates. Sharon was contacting people from their class and urging everyone to come. In the school days, she was class monitor, and now she was helping to organize the reunion. They exchanged the messages and Jessica said she couldn't make it. Then Sharon gave her a call and they talked for almost an hour. Sharon really wanted her to come and so did a couple of Jessica's old friends. They were all wondering how she was doing. None of them have seen or heard from her since graduation. They were especially curious since she hadn't gone to their first reunion 10 years before.
Jessica decided to arrange things so that she could go. Her husband finally agreed to
take care of things while she was away. He agreed to do it because her mother had offered to come and stay for a while so Jessica could attend the reunion. Since he and her mother didn't get along, he decided to change his schedule and work from home for a few days. He really didn't want her mother to come though he didn't say so. When she got to the reunion, she was shocked. Everyone had aged so much and many of them were out of shape. Some who used to be good-looking had lost their looks completely and others look much better and before. It was strange how time had changed people in such different ways. Anyway, she decided that since she was there, she would try to enjoy it.
杰西卡35岁了。她20年前从中学毕业。今年她的中学班有20年的同学聚会课。她的所有同学和老师都被邀请参加。它将在饭店举行，离他们学校过去的地方很近。和许多其他建筑一样，这所学校也被拆掉了。它被一些公寓楼取代了。起初，她不确定是否能去参加聚会。其中一个原因是没有特别想看的人。另一个原因是她很忙。她是一位工作母亲，有一个8岁的男孩，丈夫很少在家。去参加聚会就意味着她要在不在的时候安排人去照顾。那可不容易。她不想带着她的儿子，她的丈夫也不会请假。然后她收到了她的同学莎朗的留言。莎伦正在联系班上的同学，并敦促大家都来。在学校的时候，她是班长，现在她帮助组织同学聚会。他们交换了消息，杰西卡说她没能赶到。然后莎朗给她打了个电话，他们谈了将近一个小时。莎朗真的很想让她来，杰西卡的几个老朋友也是。他们都在想她过得怎么样。他们毕业后都没有见过她，也没有收到她的来信。他们特别好奇，因为她10年前没有参加过他们的第一次聚会。杰西卡决定把事情安排好，以便她能去。她丈夫终于同意了她不在的时候好好照顾。他同意这样做，因为她的母亲主动提出来住一段时间，这样杰西卡就可以参加聚会了。由于和母亲相处不好，他决定改期在家工作几天。虽然他没有说，但他真的不希望她妈妈来。当她到达聚会时，她感到震惊。每个人年纪都这么大了，很多人身体都不太好。一些以前长得很漂亮的人已经完全失去了长相，而另一些人看起来更好了。奇怪的是，时间是如何以如此不同的方式改变人们的。无论如何，她决定，既然在那里，她会尽量享受。

Jessica's 20-year class reunion was held at a fancy hotel. When she arrived, she wasn't sure she was in the right place. At first, she didn't recognize anyone. She felt a bit awkward and out of place. But it wasn’t before a strange man came up to her. He was already losing his hear and he was wearing thick glasses(深
度眼镜). Don’t you remember me He asked. When he said who he was, she barely remembered him, especially he has changed so much. Then he told her that he had always had crush on her. He said she looked beautiful and he immediately took a selfie of them, with his arm tight around her waist. This made her felt a bit strange. She smiled at him and pretended to be happy to see him. But in fact, she was sure
how to react, thought he seemed nice. She finally excused herself and went to the ladies' room. She was beginning to regret to having come to the reunion. She had always been shy and she still was. When she returned to the party, Sharon invited her to sit at her table. Dinner was going to be served soon and some of the classmates were going to give speeches. Sharon next was also got to say a few words too because people were curious. This was a surprise. Jessica had never been very popular and she didn't think anyone had noticed her. She had always felt like an outsider, with only a couple of close friends. Still, she had been one of the best students and people remembered her. As the evening wore on, Jessica began to really enjoy herself. She told to her old friends and was amazed by how some others had changed.
For example, Tom used to be good looking and athletic. He was one of the most popular students, and star basketball player. His one problem was math. He had had
hard time in math especially in geometric. This is because he wasn't a logical thinker. Except for basketball, he didn't want to d o anything, unless it was easy. Tom was no longer good looking. His nose which had always been large, had grown even larger. He had also gained a lot of weight. His wife had left him so for the first time and ever, he was lone. He looked lonely and depressed, not at all like he used to be.
Steve was a nobody in middle school. People hardly noticed him. He was small, quiet and a bit ugly with crooked teeth. What he was good at was English. His English was even better than their teachers. After graduating, he went to low rent university and eventually dropped out. For a while, he worked as a tour guide. Then, 10 years ago, he and some friends started a little company which is now a great success. In fact, he had become a rich, generous man. He had a nice warm smile and his success hadn’t gone to his head(冲昏头脑). It was a pleasure to be around him.
Betty used to be the most beautiful girl in school. She wasn't very smart but she was a great singer. She made a video of her singing and it went viral. She became famous overnight but it only lasted for about 2 years. After that, her fans lost interested in her. She tried to become an actress, but she failed. She has been too stiff and nervous in front of the camera. Betty has a nice husband who seems to adopt her. The one tragedy in her life happened about 5 years ago when she lost her daughter to a rare form of cancer. Because of that, her hair had begun to turn grey. Jessica couldn't help but feel sorry for her. Betty had had such high hope in tremendous energy as a girl, but things didn't work out.
And then there was John. John used to be the school bully. He had been big, strong
and mean. He hadn't been nice to anybody. It seemed that he was always angry and ready to hit someone. After graduating, he joined the army and went overseas to fight to a war. His saw many people died and he grew to hate fighting of any kind. Then one day, he was nearly killed when a helicopter he was in was shut down. He survived the crash(事故) but he lost a leg and was hospitalized for nearly a year. Now he had completely changed. He had gentle, kind eyes and beautiful smile. He was working for an organiz ation that provides support to elderly people. From Jessica's point of view, john had turned out to be a wonderful surprise. In the end, Jessica was glad she went to her reunion. It was interesting to see how people had changed through these years. Still, she was happy to get home and appreciate everything that she (viral 像病毒一样传播开来be prepare for 为…作准备)

L5 Unit 1-4 Listening
There are many mysteries in nature. Mysteries are things we don't understand, such as how the Egyptian pyramids were built. In fact, we are surrounded by mysteries. What we know about the world, seems like very little. Scientists tell us that what we see in the universe is only a small part of what is there. The rest is invisible, including dark matter and dark energy.
These two unknowns made up around 95% of the universe. Evidence for their existence comes from their effects on what we can observe, such as the motion and positions of the distant galaxies.
Yet thought we know very little, we are able to build airplanes and communicate with smartphones. In some ways, we humans are very smart or at least we think we are. We still need to face big issues, like climate change and that's going to be a huge challenge. The challenge for humans will be our abilities to adapt to our changing environment.
What about other form of life How do they adapt Seasonal variations, for example, can be one of the greatest challenges for animals to overcome. Overcoming such challenges will be a great achievement but hardly easy. Some birds migrate thousands of kilometers each year, to deal with seasonal changes. These migrations are don't carry maps or compasses, yet they know where to go. They had developed their abilities to see the earth magnetic field. This ability is a wonder of nature. It takes advantage of the fact that the earth is like a huge bar has north polar, which is positive and south polar, which is negative. Somehow the birds are able to see this magnetic field and use it to their advantage.
And even the way birds fly together is amazing. many migrating birds fly in a V formation. They do this to conserve energy. In a V formation, birds can use the energy of the birds in front of them. This energy comes from the air currents, generated by the wings. Conserving energy is necessary for the birds to survive in long journey. how do the birds know this It's truly amazing how the birds know this.
Another amazing example of survive animal is the Salmon. Salmon spent most of their lives in the ocean which is saltwater. Yet, when it's time to breed, they do so in fresh water rivers. Salmon can adapt their bodies to survive in both saltwater and freshwater. When it's breeding time, they returned to the same river where they were born. It seems as if they had built-in map that guides them for hundreds of miles.
Once they left the salt water, they don't eat. They are determined to finish their journey despite of many obstacles. They swim against strong currents, jump over waterfalls and try to escape claws of hungry bears. Many die along the way but enough of them survive to breed and reproduce the next generation.
Once they had lay their eggs, they die, having completed their journey. It seems that their purpose in life is just to reproduce.
Migration takes the animals to new, more favorable environments when seasons change. Some of these journeys are long and dangerous, along routes with no obvious landmarks. The longest migration is that of the artic tern. It flies from polar to polar, twice a year. If a tern achieves its average lifespan of 20 years, the distance it has
flown will be equivalent to a journey to the moon and back.
Humans also migrate, but seldom if ever for seasonal variations. unfortunately, human migrations are often due to human activities. Since the beginning of the 21st century, large scale migrations had become a global problem. Millions of migrants have had to leave their countries and look for new homes. Many have died along the way or left these refugees in camps until they are admitted into a new country. So, the question remains as to how our global communities will face these challenges.
自然界有许多奥秘。神秘是我们不了解的事情，比如埃及金字塔是如何建造的。事实上，我们被神秘所包围。我们对世界的了解似乎很少。科学家告诉我们，我们在宇宙中看到的只是那里的一小部分。其余的是看不见的，包括暗物质和暗能量。这两个未知数约占宇宙的95 %。它们存在的证据来自它们对我们所能观察到的东西的影响，比如遥远星系的运动和位置。然而，尽管我们知之甚少，但我们能够制造飞机并与智能手机通信。在某些方面，我们人类很聪明，或者至少我们认为我们很聪明。我们仍然需要面对重大问题，比如气候变化，这将是一个巨大的挑战。人类面临的挑战将是我们适应不断变化的环境的能力。其他形式的生活呢他们是如何适应的例如，季节性变化可能是动物要克服的最大挑战之一。克服这些挑战将是一项伟大的成就，但并不容易。一些鸟类每年迁徙数千公里，以应对季节性变化。这些迁移非常惊人。鸟不携带地图或指南针，但它们知道去哪里。他们发展了观察地球磁场的能力。这种能力是大自然的奇迹。它利用地球就像一块巨大的条形磁铁的事实。它有北极，正南极否定的。不知何故，鸟儿们能够看到这个磁场，并利用它为自己谋利。甚至鸟类在一起飞翔的方式也是惊人的。许多候鸟成V形飞行。他们这样做是为了节约能源。在V形队形中，鸟可以利用它们前面的鸟的能量。这种能量来自机翼产生的气流。节约能源是鸟类长途跋涉生存的必要条件。鸟儿怎么知道的鸟类是如何知道这一点的，真是令人惊讶。另一个幸存动物的惊人例子是鲑鱼。鲑鱼的大部分生活在海水中。然而，到了繁殖的时候，它们会在淡水河中繁殖。鲑鱼能适应他们的身体在盐水和淡水中生存。到了繁殖期，他们回到了出生的同一条河。他们好像有一张内建的地图，指引他们走了数百英里。他们一离开盐水就不吃了。尽管有许多障碍，他们决心完成旅程。它们逆流而上，跳过瀑布，试图逃脱饥饿熊的爪子。许多人在途中死去，但他们中有足够多的人存活下来，繁衍下一代。他们一旦下蛋，就在旅行结束后死去。看来他们生活的目的只是为了繁衍后代。当季节变化时，迁徙将动物带到更有利的新环境。有些旅程漫长而危险，沿途没有明显的地标。迁徙时间最长的是北极。它从极地飞到极地，一年两次。如果燕鸥的平均寿命达到20年，那么它的距离坐飞机就相当于往返月球。人类也迁移，但很少因为季节变化而迁移。不幸的是，人类的迁徙往往是由于人类的活动。21世纪初以来，大规模移民成为全球性问题。数百万移民不得不离开他们的国家，寻找新的家园。许多难民在途中死亡或留在难民营，直到他们被接纳到一个新国家。因此，我们的全球社会将如何面对这些挑战仍然是一个问题。

Ok, I'll do what I can to calm them down. But you know Keven, he's such a hard heart.
Ok, Keven, I've warned you before. This is got to stop.
Yes, I know. But Bob doesn't cooperate. He's impos sible to work with.
Even so, you can't go around pushing people. That's no way to handle things.

2019考研英语一真题翻译参考答案及解析 考研历年真题一定要用好，研究好。结合大纲和真题来选择辅导用书是最明智的。本文带大家回顾2019考研英语一真题翻译参考答案及解析： Part C Directions: Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written neatly on the ANSWER SHEET. (10 points) It was only after I started to write a weekly column about the medical journals, and began to read scientific papers from beginning to end, that I realised just how bad much of the medical literature frequently was. I came to recognise various signs of a bad paper: the kind of paper that purports to show that people who eat more than one kilo of broccoli a week were 1.17 times more likely than those who eat less to suffer late in life from pernicious anaemia. (46) There is a great deal of this kind of nonsense in the medical journals which, when taken up by broadcasters and the lay press, generates both health scares and short-lived dietary enthusiasms. Why is so much bad science published? A recent paper, titled “The Natural Selection of Bad Science”, published on the Royal Society’s open science website, attempts to answer this intriguing and important question. It says that the problem is not merely that people do bad science, but that our current system of career advancement positively encourages it. What is important is not truth, but publication, which has become almost an end in itself. There has been a kind of inflationary process at work: (47) nowadays anyone applying for a research post has to have published twice the number of papers that would have been required for the same post only 10 years ago. Never mind the quality, then, count the number. (48) Attempts have been made to curb this tendency, for example, by trying to incorporate some measure of quality as well as quantity int o the assessment of an applicant’s papers. This is the famed citation index, that is to say the number of times a paper has been quoted elsewhere in the scientific literature, the assumption being that an important paper will be cited more often than one of small account. (49) This would be reasonable if it were not for the fact that scientists can easily arrange to cite themselves in their future publications, or get associates to do so for them in return for similar favours. Boiling down an individual’s o utput to simple metrics, such as number of publications or journal impacts, entails considerable savings in time, energy and ambiguity. Unfortunately, the long-term costs of using simple quantitative metrics to assess researcher merit are likely to be quite great. (50) If we are serious about ensuring that our science is both meaningful and reproducible, we must ensure that our institutions encourage that kind of science. 46-50参考答案及解析：
如果想利用谷歌来翻译英文文献，简便方法是直接将英文文献名输入谷歌搜索栏 可以看到第三个结果就是我们要阅读的那篇文章，标题下面有“翻译此页”，点击即可翻译全文，优点是可以像论文页面那样看，缺点是无法与原文对应着看，结果如下：
通常我用更细致的翻译方法，步骤如下： 1.谷歌在线翻译网址：https://https://www.doczj.com/doc/4510934704.html,/ 界面如下： 左边是待翻译文字，右边是翻译结果。 左边方框上面一行最好选择“检测语言”，这样就不用管输入的是什么语言了；右边选中文（简体） 2.取一段待翻译内容从原文复制粘贴到上图左边空白方框中，结果自动出现在右边浅灰色方框 将鼠标光标放在翻译结果的一个词上，那个词会变成黄色，同时它对应的英文也在左边方框变成黄色。这时如果觉得这个词翻译的不正确，就鼠标左键单击它一下，会出现这个词的其他涵义，可以看看其他涵义怎么样，如下图：“本文认为”---》“本文重在探讨”。另：这里谷歌把class都翻译成了类而不是阶级。
还有一个用法即上图黑底白字方框显示的可以拖动翻译结果中的一个词，使文章重新排序。我觉得这个没必要，因为句子顺序不对不影响理解。 3.小工具 上图最下边一行左边有一个小图标，右边有四个小图标，用法如下： 1）左下角那个是全选，可以把翻译结果全选中后复制粘贴到其他地方。 2）右下角第一个小喇叭图标是朗读（这个学术用处不大，但是可供娱乐）如： 选择翻译德语到德语→复制黏贴下列字段到翻译框: pv zk pv pv zk pv zk kz zk pv pv pv zk pv zk zk pzk pzk pvzkpkzvpvzk kkkkkk bsch→点击翻译结果框的“朗读”→可以听到吭哧吭哧的音乐～～ 3）右边第二个图标是显示字词的用法，很好用的～～但是不能在翻译一段话时使用，只能翻译一个词时用，如： 直接从网上找出例句
Enterprises 1.in recent years，foreign companies have been buying best-selling brands from their locally listed subsidiaries and moving them to entities that are 100%-owned by the far-off parent. 近年来，外国企业一直从它们本地的上市子公司手中买入畅销品牌，并将这些畅销品牌并入由于母公司100%控股的实体企业中。 2.so they have set up wholly-owned，unlisted subsidiaries，or increaseed their stakes in existing affiliates，to gain total operating control。 所以，他们要么设立了不上市的全资子公司，要么增持现有关联方的股份，以获得总运营控制权。 3.not only was the Acer group to be flat，rather than pyramidal，but the holding company would own no more than 30% of each subsidiary，and Mr.Shih himself would control no more than 5%of the holding company. 鸿基集团采用平行的金字塔结构，而且控股公司在每个子公司的股权比例不超过30%，施先生在控股公司中的持股也不超过5%。 4.Loans to related companies are rarely made on an arm's length basis，and tend to be granted at below-market rates，with scant credit vetting. 放给关联公司的贷款基本都不按市场条件的正常交易，收取的利率往往低于市场水平，并很少进行认真的资信调查。

2019年考研英语真题：《英语二》翻译 My dream My dream has always been to work somewhere in an area between fashion and publishing. Two years before graduating from secondary school, I took a sewing and design course thinking that I would move on to a fashion design course. However, during that course I realised that I was not good enough in this area to compete with other creative personalities in the future, so I decided that it was not the right path for me. Before applying for university I told everyone that I would study journalism, because writing was, and still is, one of my favourite activities. But, to be absolutely honest, I said it, because I thought that fashion and me together was just a dream - I knew that no one, apart from myself, could imagine me in the fashion industry at all!

Google翻译搜索使用技巧系列一：“相关搜索”和“猜测搜索” 从Chen Zhong-hung这个名字谈用google搜索人名 今天在做英译中翻译时碰到了这个Chen Zhong-hung，原文是“Chen Zhong-hung, counsellor in the Mainland Affairs Council of the Taiwan ...”。 初步判断此人应该姓“陈”，由于这篇新闻出自外国人之手，“Zhong-hung”到底是什么？不得而之。 使用google搜索，前几个结果是： 辽宁师范大学学报（自然科学版）· Journal of Liaoning Normal ...高校实验教学改革的实践探索徐斌, 马健康, 陈忠航, 唐泽波, XU Bin , MA Jian-kang , CHEN Zhong-hang 第3个结果也是陈忠航。 显然，这些结果与台湾没有任何联系。
