第1题：
Research published in May 1993 by the Department of the Environment, Transport and the Regions (DETR) showed that reducing coastal and river pollution and ensuring a reliable water supply were among the top environmental priorities for the public.
All discharges to water in the UK require the consent of the appropriate regulatory authority. In England and Wales the Environment Agency's principal method of controlling water pollution is through the regulation of all effluent discharges, including sewage, into groundwater, and inland and coastal waters. The Agency maintains public registers containing information about water quality, discharge consents, authorizations and monitoring. Applicants for consents to discharge have the right of appeal if they are dissatisfied with the Agency's decision; most of these appeals are dealt with by the Planning Inspectorate, an executive agency of the DETR. In Scotland control is the responsibility of the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA), and most appeals are dealt with by the Scottish Office. In Northern Ireland the Environment and Heritage Service is responsible for controlling water pollution.
In 1997, there were 4,717 cases in England and Wales of discharges exceeding their consented limits, including a number of offences by water companies discharging insufficiently treated sewage. The majority of these breaches did not cause any significant environmental damage. However, the Environment Agency did bring 65 cases to court, of which 61 were successful, resulting in fines ranging from ￡ 440 to ￡ 12,000 and one prison sentence of two months. In Scotland, there were 2,734 pollution incidents in 1997; SEPA seeks prosecution in all significant cases.
In 1997 and 1998, the Government introduced statutory Environmental Quality Standards (EQSs) for 33 substances in water. The new regulations give legal force for the first time to standards for some of the most dangerous pollutants found in the aquatic environment.
In the UK, 96 percent of the population live in properties connected to a sewer, and sewage treatment works serve over 80 percent of the population. In England and Wales, the water industry
is committed to an investment programme of some ￡ 11,000 million over ten years for improvements to water quality. Progressively
higher treatment standards for industrial waste effluents and new measures to combat pollution from agriculture are expected to bring further improvements in water quality. In Scotland, responsibility
for the provision of all water and sewerage services lies with three Water and Sewerage Authorities, covering the north, east and west of the country._____________
参考答案：
根据英国环境、交通及区域部于1998年5月公布的研究报告，减少沿海水域与河流的污染，保证供应安全用水，乃是广大公众在环保方面的当务之急。在英国，向水中倾倒任何东西，都需征得有关管理部门的同意。在英格兰和威尔士，环境署控制水污染的主要方法是监控一切流入地下水及内陆和沿海水域的废水，包括污水。环境署存有公开的记录，记载着水质、排放许可、授权单位、监督情况等事项。申请排放许可者如对环境署的决定不满，有权上诉，大都由计划督察团接受处理，督察团是部属的一个执行机构。在苏格兰，是由苏格兰环保署(SEPA) 负责监控，上诉大都由驻苏格兰办事处接受处理。在北爱尔兰，水污染由环境与遗产局负责监控。1997年，在英格兰和威尔士共发生4717起超过许可限度的排污事件，其中有一些是水公司的过错，它们排放了未经充分处理的污水。这些违规行为绝大部分都没有对环境造成重大危害。然而，环境署也的确将65起违规事件送上法庭，其中6l起环境署胜诉，判处的罚款自440镑至12000镑不等，还有一起判处败诉方两个月徒刑。在苏格兰，1997年共发生污染事件2734起；苏格兰环境保护署对情节严重者均予起诉。1997和1998年，政府实行法定环境质量标准，涉及水中33种物质。新规定使得关于在水中发现的几种最危险的污染物的标准第一次具有法律效力。在英国，96％人口的住宅与下水道系统相连，污水处理厂能为80％以上的人口服务。在英格兰和威尔士，水工业承诺在十年间将投资约110亿英镑，以改善水质。逐步提高工业废水处理标准，采取新措施以治理农业造成的污染，预计将会进一步提高水质。在苏格兰，三个给水排污管理局负责给水和排污的事宜，分管全国的北部、东部和西部地区。
详细解答：
[采分点解析] 1．reliable water supply保证供应安全用水。 [分析] 基本素质采分点。 reliable adj. 可靠的，可信赖的，water supply n. 给水，自来水，供水系统。可信赖的供水系统。根据前文提到的ensuring(保证)，所以后面翻译成“保证供水安全”比较符合汉语表达方式。2．top environmental priorities for the public广大公众在环保方面的当务之急。[分析] 用词选词采分点。 top priority指“应予最优先考虑的事”，在这里翻译成“当务之急”更好。 3．In England and Wales the Environment Agency's principal method of controlling water pollution is through the regulation of all effluent discharges, including sewage, into groundwater, and inland and coastal waters．在英格兰和威尔士，环境署控制水污染的主要方法是监控一切流入地下水及内陆和沿海水域的废水，包括污水。[分析] 理解结构采分点。介词短语including sewage(包括污水)插入语成分，用于解释说明排放的废水都包含哪些种类，因此在翻译的时候可将其放在
最后进行解释。先把“... discharges, into groundwater and inland and coastal waters”翻译成“排人地下水及内陆和沿海水域的废水”，然后再进一步解释说明这些废水包括sewage(污水)。4．Applicants for consents to discharge have the right of appeal if they are dissatisfied with the Agency's decision; most of these appeals are dealt with by the Planning Inspectorate, an executive agency of the DETR. 申请排放许可者如对环境署的决定不满，有权上诉，大都由计划督察团接受处理，督察团是部属的一个执行机构。 [分析] 理解结构采分点。本句是由两个分句组成，译成汉语时可采用合句法组成一个句子。an executive agency of the DETR是作为planning inspectorate的同位语来进一步解释说明这一部门是隶属于DETR。5．In Northern Ireland the Environment and Heritage Service is responsible for controlling water pollution．在北爱尔兰，水污染由环境与遗产局负责监控。[分析] 基本素质采分点。Environment and Heritage Service表示一个机构，其中的Service应翻译成“局”。6．In 1997, there were 4,717 cases in England and Wales of discharges exceeding their consented limits, including a number of offences by water companies discharging insufficiently treated sewage. 1997年，在英格兰和威尔士共发生4,717起超过许可限度的排污事件，其中有一些是水公司的过错，它们排放了未经充分处理的污水。[分析] 选词用词采分点。insufficiently treated指“处理不充分，处理不当的”，这里要翻译成“未经充分处理的”。offence不译成“冒犯”，而这里指的是“过错”。 7．However, the Environment Agency did bring 65 cases to court, of which 61 were successful, resulting in fines ranging from ￡440 to ￡12,000 and one prison sentence of two months. 然而，环境署也的确将65起违规事件送上法庭，其中61起环境署胜诉，判处的罚款自440镑至12000镑不等，还有一起判处两个月徒刑。[分析] 选词用词采分点。bring…to court，把……送上法庭。短语result in省译。successful不宜翻译成“成功”，为了使句子更通／顷，应译成动词“胜诉”。 8．In England and Wales，the water industry is committed to an investment programme of some ￡11,000 million over ten years for improvements to water quality. 在英格兰和威尔士，水工业承诺在十年间将投资约110亿英镑，以改善水质。 [分析] 理解表达采分点。采用省译的方法省译programme。Some指“大约”。9．Progressively higher treatment standards for industrial waste effluents and new measures to combat pollution from agriculture are expected to bring further improvements in water quality．逐步提高工业废水处理标准，采取新措施以治理农业造成的污染，预计将会进一步提高水质。 [分析] 理解结构采分点。原句的主语是两个并列的名词性短语higher treatment standards for industrial waste effluents and new measures to combat pollution from agriculture, 可以翻译成动宾结构作主语，译为“逐步提高工业废水处理标准，采取新措施以治理农业造成的污染”。其中要增加动词“提高”和“采取”，谓语部分的improvement转译成动词“提高”。 10．In Scotland, responsibility for the provision of all water and sewerage services lies with three Water and Sewerage Authorities, covering the north, east and west of the country. 在苏格兰，三个给水
排污管理局负责给水和排污的事宜，分管全国的北部、东部和西部地区。 [分析] 选词用词采分点。lie with是当“属于……的权利”讲，在此译成由……负责即可。cover在这里不译成“覆盖”因为其逻辑主语是“给水排污管理局”，所以，用“分管”更好。

参考答案：
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._______

[采分点解析] 1．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。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． [分析] 理解表达采分点。原文是四个单句。译成英语时，要根据英语的语法结构和语言习惯进行调整，本句采用并句的技巧将之译为两个句子。前两个单句译为用形式主语it代替主语从句的结构：It isn't often that．．．后两句用顺译法So on October 5 last year，when I went to Bing Xin's house，I felt very excited，2．我解释说希望她给我讲一下她是怎样成为诗人的。I explained that I hoped she would tell me something about how she became a poet． [分析] 理解表达采分点。本句用顺译的方法即可，但翻译时需根据英语习惯采用增词技巧；汉语中所用动词在翻译过程中要通过主从复合句的层次来体现：原文中的“解释说”、“希望”、“讲一下”、“成为”译作 I explained that I hoped she would tell me something about how she became a poet．3．冰心很幸运地有鼓励她学习和写作的父母。Bing Xin was fortunate to have parents who encouraged her to study and write． [分析] 理解表达采分点。汉语中常将定语放在所修饰的中心词前，之间用“的”连接，而在英语中定语常用一个从句来表达，因此本句中的“鼓励她学习和写作的父母”可译作parents who encouraged her to study and write。4．一九一九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。When she was attending a women's college in Beijing in 1919，an event occurred which changed the whole course of her life． [分析] 理解表达采分点。本句要采用补译法，因为“改变了她生命的事件”指的是“当时发生的”，所以在译文中按英语习惯加入了occurred，句子结构也因此有所变化。5．五四运动the May 4th Movement [分析] 基本素质采分点。五四运动是个专有名词。6．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。 Going to the U．S．in 1923 to study literature，she wrote down her impressions on the way and during her stay there． [分析] 理解表达采分点。原文是两个单句。译成英语时，要根据英语的语法结构和语言习惯进行调整；本句采用并句法将之译为一个句子；前面一句用分词短语作状语，后面一句作主句。7．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。The book brought her instant fame，not only because she was a woman writer， but also because of the noble sentiments in the book． [分析] 理解表达采分点。本句可用并句法翻译。因后面的两个单句表原因，可作状语从句，并将之与前面一个句子合并成一个复合句，使得句子结构更为严谨，更符合英语习惯。

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

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._____________

全国翻译专业资格（水平）考试英语三级笔译实务模拟试题 Part 1 English-Chinese Translation (英译汉) Translate the following passage into Chinese and write your translation on the ANSWER SHEET (60 points, 100 minutes). 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

Referring to stress, she heaved a big sigh and said: "Aiyah, anything bad that can happen has already happened." Her friends nearby then started pouring out their woes about which subjects they found hard, and so on. Pessimism again, in these all-too-familiar remarks about Singapore's education system, widely regarded as too results-oriented, and I wonder why I even bothered to ask. The school system of reaching for A's underlies the country's culture, which emphasizes the chase for economic excellence where wealth and status are must-haves. Such a culture is hard to change. So when I read of how the new Remaking Singapore Committee had set one of its goals as challenging the traditional roads to success, encouraging Singaporeans to realize alternative careers in the arts, sports, research or as entrepreneurs, I had my doubts about its success in this area, if not coupled with help from parents themselves. The new Remaking Singapore Committee is a brainchild of the Singaporean Prime Minister, formed to make Singaporeans look beyond the five C's: cash, condos, clubs, credit cards and cars, to help prepare the nation for the future. It is good that the government wants to do something about the country's preoccupation with material success. But it will be a losing battle if the family unit itself is not involved because I believe the committee's success is rooted in a revamp of an entire culture built from 37 years of independence. This makeover has to start with the most basic societal unit—the family. Parents should not drown their children in mantras of I-want-hundred-marks. Tuition lessons are not the be-all and end-all of life. And a score of 70 for a Chinese paper is definitely not the end of life. If ever I become a parent, I will bring my children camping. I will show them that cooking food in a mess tin over a campfire is fun. I will teach them that there is nothing dirty about lying on a sleeping bag over grass. In fact, it is educational because Orion is up there in the night sky with all the other bright stars whose shapes and patterns tell something more than a myth. For instance, they give directions to the lost traveler, I will say. And who knows, my child may become an astronomer years down the road. All because of the nights I spent with him watching the twinkles in the sky. That's my point. Parents should teach their children that there's more to life than studies. Better still if the nation's leaders echo that idea as well. This way, when their children aspire to be the next Joscelin Yeo, they won't feel like they are fighting a losing battle against a society that holds doctors and lawyers in awe.
