2012.3.18中级口译真题+答案Spot Dictation 原文+评析Music affects us as profoundly as anything we experience. Very many people say that music is a big part of their everyday life. We can hear evidence of this in the blurring car radio and see the jogger with his personal stereo. That is the new portability of music. That brings it everywhere people live, play and work.There are different kinds of music , for all tastes –classical, pop, rock, rap, jazz, folk –each culture has its own style. Different parts of the body resonate to different sounds and pitches, and most significantly, certain kinds of music resound powerfully in the human spirit.We can listen to music anywhere and everywhere.Listening to music can change your mood –sometimes dramatically. Some times, if you’re feeling low, it’s tempting to play slow sad music, but this would make you feel worse. And lifting tune or cheerful song can instantly improve your energy levels and your emotional well being.Music in film and television shows us how music can affect mood. A romantic drama would have a very different film score to a thriller. The old ―silent‖ films originally had a pianist in the cinema playing along, trying to strike the right mood. At times, when watching a film or TV programme, you k now what’s about to happen because of the music being played –you can anticipate the terror, such as in ―Jaws‖. There’re many times when I’ve turn down the sound during a TV programme and use subtitles because the music unsettles means so much.Playing Mozart when studying is said to increase our IQ. A recent study has showed that children who learn a musical instrument are much quicker at developing spatial awareness and problem solving skills.Relaxation music has a slow rhythm. Sounds are often synthesised and there may be added natural sounds, such as whalesong, birdsong, waves or gentle rain to help produce a feeling of calm and relaxation.点评：这是一篇关于各种音乐与人之间的关系的文章。

2012年3月上海高级口译英译汉真题(总分：100.00，做题时间：90分钟)一、英译汉(总题数：1，分数：100.00)1. August was once a time for dreaming, wandering the empty streets of this city, reading silly-season newspaper stories after a leisurely lunch, gazing at square where fountains plashed and the pregnant or the old chatted on benches at dusk. Then something happened. The world speeded up. Stress levels soared. Idle moments evaporated. Egos expanded. Money outpaced politics. Rages surged. August aborted this year. It morphed into the serious season. The beach lost out to the barricades. A time of outrage is upon us. Now a feeling has grown in Western societies that uncontrollable forces are at work shrinking possibility. History has never seen a global power shift as radical as the current one that managed to be peaceful. Growth, jobs, expansion, excitement-and, yes, possibility-lie in the great non-Western arc from China through India to South Africa and Brazil. The world has been turned upside down. What we are witnessing is how shaken Western societies are by such inversion. As new powers emerge, globalization has altered the relationship between capital and labor in the former's favor. Returns on capital have proved higher relative to wages. The gap between rich and poor has become a gulf. The only people who walked away unscathed from the great financial binge were its main architects and greatest beneficiaries: such as bankers and financiers. This, too, is fueling a time of outrage that has left western politicians chasing shadows.（分数：100.00）__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案：( 八月曾是一段梦想的时光，任你倘佯在这座城市空空荡荡的街道上，悠闲自得地享用午餐后，读读无聊季节无重大新闻的报纸，黄昏时分，凝神看着广场上喷泉飞溅，孕妇、老人在长凳上闲聊家常。

2012年3月到2013年中级口译真题汉译英答案+解析2012年3月中级口译真题汉译英答案+解析原文：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”。

In the program today, let me ask you aquestion first: What do you think would be the hardestjob in Britain?A police officer? Perhaps a deepsea fisherman? Well, no, according to recent research, being aLondon taxi driver takes that prize. It's really a hardjob, really difficult. One reason is the traffic. It's get-ting worse and worse in London. For most of us, if wehave to sit in a traffic jam for a few minutes, we getanxious. But imagine if you had to do that all day, every day as your job. What's more, passengers get into thetaxi and want to get from A toB as quickly as possible. They're in a hurry, and that makes things worse for thedrivers. To prepare for the test, would-be drivers haveto remember ways and places of interest around CentralLondon. This is an area which has about 25,000 streets.They need to be able to take passengers from A to Bwithout having to look at a map and without having toask for directions. It usually takes nearly three years topass the test, so it is also found in the research that partsof the brains of taxi drivers are actually larger than thosein the general population. It seems as if learning all thestreets and ways makes a part of the brain grow. Well,anyway, this is a most tiring job. Next time you're stuckin a traffic jam and feel mad, spare a thought for the taxidrivers, who have to spend most of their working life inthem.第二部分英语知识运用第一节单项填空21．D【精析】句意：——安已经出去了。

阅读理解第四篇：However attractive the figures may look on paper, in the long run the success or failure of a merger depends on the human factor. When the agreement has been signed and the accountants have departed, the real problems may only just be beginning. If there is a culture clash between the two companies in the way their people work, then all the efforts of the financiers and lawyers to strike a deal may have been in vain.According to Chris Bolton of KS Management Consultants, 70% of mergers fail to live up to their promise of shareholder value, riot through any failure in economic terms but because the integration of people is unsuccessful. Corporates, he explains, concentrate their efforts before a merger on legal, technical and financial matters. They employ a range of experts to obtain the most favourable contract possible. But even at these early stages, people issues must be taken into consideration. The strengths and weaknesses of both organisations should be assessed and, if it is a merger of equals, then careful thought should be given to which personnel, from which side, should take on the key roles.This was the issue in 2001 when the proposed merger between two pharmaceutical companies promised to create one of the largest players in the industry. For both companies the merger was intended to reverse falling market share and shareholder value. However, although the companies' skill bases were compatible, the chief executives of the two companies could not agree which of them was to head up the new organisation. This illustrates the need to compromise if a merger is to take place.But even in mergers that do go ahead, there can be culture clashes. One way to avoid this is to work with focus groups to see how employees view the existing culture of their organisation. In one example, where two global organisations in the food sector were planning to merge, focus groups discovered that the companies displayed very different profiles. One was sales-focused, knew exactly what it wanted to achieve and pushed initiatives through. The other got involved in lengthy discussions, trying out options methodically and making contingency plans. The first responded quickly to changes in the marketplace;the second took longer, but the option it eventually chose was usually the correct one. Neither company's approach would have worked for the other.The answer is not to adopt one company's approach, or even to try to incorporate every aspect of both organisations, but to create a totally new culture. This means taking the best from both sides and making a new organisation that everyone can accept. Or almost everyone. Inevitably there will be those who cannot adapt to a different culture. Research into the impact of mergers has found that companies with differing management styles are the ones that need to work hardest at creating a new culture.Another tool that can help to get the right cultural mix is intercultural analysis. This involves carrying out research that looks at the culture of a company and the business culture of the country in which it is based. It identifies how people, money and time are managed in a company, and investigates the business customs of the country and how its politics, economics and history impact on the way business is done.1. According to the text, mergers can encounter problems whenA contracts are signed too quickly.B experts cannot predict accurate figures.C conflicting attitudes cannot be resolved.D staff are opposed to the terms of the deal.2. According to Chris Bolton, what do many organisations do in preparation fora merger?A ensure their interests are representedB give reassurances to shareholdersC consider the effect of a merger on employeesD analyse the varying strengths of their staff3. The proposed merger of two pharmaceutical groups failed becauseA major shareholders were opposed.B there was a fall in the demand for their products.C there were problems combining their areas of expertise.D an issue of personal rivalry could not be resolved.4. According to the text, focus groups can help companies toA develop new initiatives.B adopt contingency plans.C be decisive and react rapidly.D evaluate how well matched they are.5.Creating a new culture in a newly merged organisation means thatA management styles become more flexible.B there is more chance of the merger working.C staff will find it more difficult to adapt to the changes.D successful elements of the original organisations are lost.6. According to the text, intercultural analysis will showA what kind of benefits a merger can lead to.B how the national context affects the way a company is run.C how long it will take for a company culture to develop.D what changes companies should make before a merger takes place.参考答案及解析：《Achieving a successful merger》，实现一个成功的并购。
