1. Contrast Between English and ChinesePut the following into Chinese, pay special attention to the linguistic differences between English and Chinese.Sentence translation:1.Now that you are in for it, you must carry on.2.Cigarettes were the death of me.3.If the man who was seen to take an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday eveningdoes not wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No. 10 Broad Street.4.If you confer a benefit, never remember it; if you receive one, remember it always.5.Her sighs made it clear that she was unhappy.6.They had no running water where they lived. Nor did they have any conveniences of lifesuch as gas and electricity.7.Theatre will be reinvented and become much freer and more imaginative.8.Nowadays it is understood that a diet which contains nothing harmful may result inserious disease if certain important elements are missing.9.By the end of the war, 800 people had been saved by the organization, but at a cost of 200Belgian and French lives.10.It should be noted that he and she were extremely close allies.Passage translation:It seemed a point scored for her side when Joanne, panicked that her father-in-law would bungle the turnoff for the Pulaski Skyway, shattered the tip of her cigarette against the back of the seat and a live ash fell on the baby‟s belly. It went unnoticed for a second until Corinne screamed; then they all saw it, a little flea of fire glowing beside the perfect navel. Joanne jumped, and squealed with guilt, and flapped her hands and stamped her feet and hugged the baby against her, but the evidence could not be destroyed; a brown dot of char on the globe of immaculate skin. Corinne continued her screams, splicing them with shrill hard gasps of intake, while everyone rummaged through purses and pockets for Vaseline, butter, toothpaste – anything for an urgent. Mother had a tiny bottle of toilet water given her in a department store; Joanne dabbed some of this on, and in time Corinne, shaken by more and more widely spaced spasms of sobbing, mercifully dragged her injury with her into the burrow of sleep.2. Cohesion1.When Smith was drunk, he used to beat his wife and daughter; and the next morning, witha headache, he would rail at the world for its neglect of his genius, and abuse, with a gooddeal of cleverness, and sometimes with perfect reason, the fools, his brother painters.2.(When one individual inflicts bodily injury upon another, such injury that death results,we call the deed man-slaughter; when the assailant knew in advance that the injury would be fatal, we call his deed murder.) But when society places hundreds of proletarians in such a position that they inevitably meet a too early and an unnatural death, one which is quite as much a death by violence as that by the sword or bullet; when it deprives thousands of the necessaries of life, places them under conditions in which they cannot live – forces them, through the strong arm of the law, to remain in such conditions until that death ensues which is the inevitable consequence –knows that these thousands of victims must perish, and yet permits these conditions to remain, its deed is murder just as surely as the deed of the single individual; disguised, malicious murder, murder against which none can defend himself, which does not seem what it is, because no man sees the murderer, because the death of the victim seems a natural one, since the offence is more one of omission than that of commission. (But murder it remains.)3 Coherence1.In that infinitesimal fraction of time, inconceivable and immeasurable, during which thefirst atomic bomb converted a small part of its matter into the greatest burst of energy released on earth up to that time, Prometheus had broken his bonds and brought a new fire down to earth, a fire three million times more powerful than the original fire he snatched from the gods for the benefit of man some five hundred thousand years ago. 2.The chess board is the world, the pieces are the phenomena of the universe, the rules ofthe game are what we call the laws of nature. The player on the other side is hidden from us. We know that his play is always fair, just and patient. But we also know, to our cost, that he never overlooks a mistake, or makes the smallest allowance for ignorance.3.British newspapers –all of them some of the time, and some of them all the time –behave badly in two ways. They intrude unnecessarily and often hurtfully into people‟s privacy; and they publish inaccurate, sometimes made-up stories. The victims have little redress. If they are rich and the article is defamatory, they can sue for libel. Most cannot afford to do so, and even the rich cannot prevent an invasion of their privacy. Fierce competition, particularly between tabloid newspapers, leads to more feet in more doors.Translation of Idioms, Proverbs and SlangPlease translate the following passages:One afternoon I heard Imelda and her daughter arguing in the kitchen. Her daughter had quarreled with her husband‟s parents, and Imelda was insisting that she apologize to them.Her daughter o bjected. “But, Mama, I just can‟t swallow them, not even with honey. They talk so big until we need something; then they‟re too poor. So today when they wouldn‟t even lend enough to pay for a new bed, all I did was say something that I‟ve heard you say a h undred times: …If so grand, why so poor? If so poor, why so grand?‟”“Impertinent!” snorted Imelda. “Have I not also taught you, …what the tongue says, the neck pays for‟? I will not have it said that I could never teach my daughter proper respect for her elders. And before you go to beg their pardon, change those trousers for a dress. You know how your mother-in-law feels about pants on a woman. She always says, …what was hatched a hen must not try to be a rooster!‟”Her daughter made one more try. “But Mama, you often say, …If the saint is annoyed, don‟t pray to him until he gets over it.‟ Can‟t I leave it for tomorrow?”“No, no and no! Remember: …If the dose is nasty, swallow it fast.‟ You know, my child, you did wrong. But, …A gift is the key to open the door closed against you.‟ I have a cake in the oven that I was making for the Senora‟s dinner. I will explain to the senora. Now, dear, hurry home and make yourself pretty in your pink dress. By the time you get back, I will have the cake ready for you to take to your mother-in-law. She will be so pleased that she may make your father-in-law pay for the bed. Remember: …One hand washes the other, but together they wash the face.‟”。

He stood out splendidly above all my uncles because he did not stand out at all. That was his distinction. He was the average man I everknew.You would never pick him out in a crowd. He became just another man the minute he was in one. So many more pounds of man. Good solid pounds, but just pounds. You would never remember his hair or his chin,or the shape of his ears. If he said something, you would agree with it, and, an hour later, you would be sure you had said it yourself.Sometimes I think men like that get along about the best. They arethe easiest on their houses, their wives, and their children. They are easiest on the world. They slide along without having to do anythingabout it as small boys do on their breeches after they have slid on them enough to wear them down smooth. The world is all so much pineneedles under them.Passage 2Usually the things we dream of, then work and struggle for, are what we value most. Have my granddaughters, blessed with abundance, beendenied life’s real pleasures?Working tirelessly on that isolated farm, my grandfather taught me that we should accept and be grateful for what we have –whether it bemuch or little. We must bear the burdens and relish the joys. There is so much we cannot control, but we must try to make things better when we are able. We must depend upon ourselves to make our own way as best aswe can.Growing up in a comfortable suburban home, my granddaughters have been presented with a different situation. But I hope –I believe –theywill in their own way be able to cope with as well as my grandfather coped, and learn the lesson my grandfather taught me all those years ago.On the day I took them to Storvassdal, I hope they would somehow understand the importance of the little boat and its simple message ofself-reliance.High in the mountain, I hesitated to speak lest I disturb ourtranquility. Then Claire looked up and broke my reverie as she said softly, ―Grandpa, someday I’ll come back.‖She paused. ―And I’ll bring mychildren.‖Pete Sampras started playing tennis young and makes no plans to stop anytime soon. The man who has a calm demeanor, boyish shyness and the looks of a star proves again and again what so many players, critics and fans can’t deny: he can win, and always does. In 1990, when Sampras was only 19 years old and seeded twelfth in the U.S. Open, he slammed his way into the finals and became the youngest man to win the tournament. And we all knew after that first Grand Slam victory there would be no looking back.Over the years, the quiet giant has gone on to win eleven more Grand Slams: six Wimbledons, three more U.S. Opens, and two Australian Opens. Sampras’s most beloved titles have come on the grasses of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club. In 1993, he won his first Wimbledon title, and since that year, has gotten to and won in every final, except for a quarterfinal defeat by in 1996. He is the winningest man at Wimbledon in the Open Era and is one championship away from tying the all time record of seven titles that was set in the late 1800s. The historic grounds of Wimbledon and the intimate Center Court has become a home for Sampras, a ―cathedra‖ as he once said. He will undoubtedly go down in the history books as the greatest.Passage 4The ocean covers three quarters of the earth’s surface, produces 90 percent of all its life-supporting oxygen, and is the driving force behind the entire weather system. There are over 450 million cubic miles of sea water on the earth; and each cubic mile contains over 150 million tons of minerals.So vast and so pervasive is the sea that if the earth’s crust were made level, ocean water would form a blanket over 8,000 feet deep.The oceans contribute immeasurably to the earth’s life support system as well as provide an untapped storehouse of food, minerals, energy, and archaeological treasure.Advanced atmospheric diving suits permit researchers to descend to depths of 1,500 feet. Yet the ocean’s average depth is greater than 12,000 feet. It is at these depths that remarkable discoveries are being made, discoveries which only a short time ago would have been impossible.In that depth, where darkness is absolute and pressure exceeds eight tons per square inch, robotic submersibles have discovered enormous gorges, four times deeper than the Grand Canyon. Here, too, are volcanoes that vastly outnumber those on land. Landslides the size of Rhode Island have been recorded, as well as raging undersea storms that go completely unnoticed on the surface while dramatically rearranging the underwater landscapes.Passage 5It is a curious fact that nine people out of ten become happier when faced with some small misfortune. On my first visit to America, thirty-five years ago, a train in which I was travelling became stuck in a snowdrift so that we did not arrive in New York until a great many hours after all the food on the train had been eaten up. I was beginning to expect that the passengers would draw lots as to who should be eaten, but, far from that, everybody was in the best spirits. People who would have hated each other in ordinary circumstances found each other quite agreeable, and everybody reached an obviously exceptional level of happiness.I observed the same thing in a really bad London fog. An ordinary fog is a mere nuisance, but a fog so bad that you cannot see your own feet brings consolation even to the most melancholic. People begin to speak to complete strangers –a thing which in London is not much done. They recall the far worse fogs that they remember in their youth; they tell of friends who got lost at Hyde Park Corner and were only found again by accidentally running into a policeman in quite another part of the town. Everybody laughs, everybody is jolly –until the fog clears, when they again become sober, grave and responsible citizens.Unfortunately, this mood, which is appropriate enough for small mishaps that cannot be prevented, is apt to extend itself to large misfortunes that could have been avoided.Passage 6What was the origin of the oil which now drives our motor-cars and aircraft? Scientists are confident about the formation of coal, but they do not seem so sure when asked about oil. They think that the oil under the surface of the earth originated in the distant past, and was formed from living things in the sea. Countless billions of minute sea creatures andplants lived and sank to the sea bed. They were covered with huge deposits of mud, and by processes of chemistry, pressure and temperature were changed through long ages into what we know as oil. For these creatures to become oil, it was necessary that they should be imprisoned between layers of rock for an enormous length of time. The statement that oil originated in the sea is confirmed by a glance at a map showing the chief oilfields of the world; very few of them are far distant from the oceans of today. In some places gas and oil come up to the surface of the sea from its bed. The rocks in which oil is found are of marine origin too. They are sedimentary rocks, rocks which were laid down by the action of water on the bed of the ocean. Almost always the remains of shells, and other proofs of sea life, are found close to the oil. A very common sedimentary rock is called shale, which is a soft rock and was obviously formed by being deposited on the sea bed. And where there is shale there is likely to be oil.Passage 7For me the most interesting thing about a solitary life, and mine has been that for the last twenty years, is that it becomes increasingly rewarding. When I can wake up and watch the sun rise over the ocean, as I do most days, and know that I have an entire day ahead, uninterrupted, in which to write a few pages, take a walk with my dogs, read and listen to music, I am flooded with happiness.I am lonely only when I am overtired, when I have worked too long without a break, when for the time being I feel empty and need filling up. And I am lonely sometimes when I come back home after a lecture trip, when I have seen a lot of people and talked a lot, and am full to the brim with experience that needs to be sorted out.Then for a little while the house feels huge and empty, and I wonder where my self is hiding. It has to be recaptured slowly by watching the plants and, perhaps, by looking again at each one as though it were a person.It takes a while, as I watch the surf blowing up in fountains, but the moment comes when the world falls away, and the self emerges again from the deep unconsciousness, bring back all I have recently experienced to be explored and slowly understood.Passage 8Making a long trip to the supermarket and queuing for hours used to be the normal weekly routine for British and American shoppers. But since the 1990s, there is a better way to get your groceries. Supermarket shopping on the Internet has boomed in the UK and the USA.The major supermarkets have their own websites, and if you order on-line with them, for a small extra sum such as $8 / £5 the supermarkets will do your shopping for you and deliver it to your door. If you shop with them regularly, they will ―remember‖your favorites items so you can order them next time without searching for them!These days thousands of people in the UK and the States regularly do their supermarket shopping in this way. In contrast, in many rural areas of Britain there has been a return to the traditional outdoor market. Farmers’markets, where farmers sell their products directly to the customers, had practically died out in Britain because of the attraction of the supermarkets, but they have been resurrected recently, both to help farmers make more profits, and to provide customers with ―real‖food again, such as fresh meat, eggs, vegetables and preserves. Organic food has become very popular, and some producers run a ―box service‖, where they deliver a weekly box of fruit and vegetables to your door. Customers can’t select the food—they just receive whatever is in season—but it is guaranteed to be fresh and free from chemicals, and now you can often order these on-line too!。
在我的众多的叔叔大爷中,他是最突出的一个,原因就在于他从不突出自己。
这就是他与众不同之处。
他是我见过的最普通的人。
他在人群里一点也不显眼。
他一混入人海就和周围的人没什么两样子,他长得敦敦实实,体重超过常人许多磅,但也仅此而已。
你永远也想不起他的头发是什么颜色,他的下巴、耳朵是什么样子。
如果他说些什么,你会表示同意,过一个小时,你就会觉得这话就是你自己说的。
有时我想,正是这种人才活得轻松自在。
他们对住房、对妻子、对儿女总是那么宽宏大量,从不挑剔。
他们是世界上最宽容的人。
他们总是那么顺其自然地活着,从不为任何事情操心,就像小孩子坐滑梯把裤裆磨破了也不在乎。
这个世界就像铺在身子底下的松针一样,柔软舒适。
Passage 2我们梦寐以求以及后来又为之努力奋斗的东西,往往正是我们最珍视的东西。
我的孙女们有幸过上了丰裕的生活但她们是否没享受到生活的真正乐趣呢?外公在那个偏僻的农场孜孜不倦地干活,他教导我应该随遇而安,知足常乐——不论是多是少。
我们必须吃苦耐劳,乐观快活。
许多事我们都无法把握,不过我们必须尽力改善一切。
一定要依靠自己竭尽全力走自己的路。
我的孙女们是在市郊的舒适住宅里长大的,她们面临一个迥然不同的环境。
不过我希望——我相信——她们能够像我外公一样以自己的方式应付一切,而且能够领会到多年前外公对我的教益。
那天我带她们去斯托瓦司戴尔湖,就是希望她们会悟出小船的重要性以及它所表达的简明道理:自力更生。
在高高的山上,我迟迟不说话,惟恐搅乱了我们的宁静。
后来,克莱尔抬起头来打断了我的沉思,她轻轻地说:“爷爷,总有一天我要回来。
”她顿了顿又说:“我还要带我的孩子来。
”皮特桑普拉斯年纪轻轻就开始打网球,也没打算在什么时候停止。
这个举止沉着、有着孩子般羞涩和一副明星面容的男人一次又一次证明了那么多球员、评论家和球迷无法否认的事实:他能够获胜,并且总是获胜。
1990年,在桑普拉斯仅有19岁的时候,他就在美国公开赛被定为第12名种子选手,他一路高奏凯歌闯入决赛,并且成为赢得这项锦标赛冠军中最年轻的一位。

He stood out splendidly above all my uncles because he did not stand out at all. That was his distinction. He was the average man I everknew.You would never pick him out in a crowd. He became just another man the minute he was in one. So many more pounds of man. Good solid pounds, but just pounds. You would never remember his hair or his chin,or the shape of his ears. If he said something, you would agree with it, and, an hour later, you would be sure you had said it yourself.Sometimes I think men like that get along about the best. They arethe easiest on their houses, their wives, and their children. They are easiest on the world. They slide along without having to do anythingabout it as small boys do on their breeches after they have slid on them enough to wear them down smooth. The world is all so much pineneedles under them.Passage 2Usually the things we dream of, then work and struggle for, are what we value most. Have my granddaughters, blessed with abundance, beendenied life’s real pleasures?Working tirelessly on that isolated farm, my grandfather taught me that we should accept and be grateful for what we have –whether it bemuch or little. We must bear the burdens and relish the joys. There is so much we cannot control, but we must try to make things better when we are able. We must depend upon ourselves to make our own way as best aswe can.Growing up in a comfortable suburban home, my granddaughters have been presented with a different situation. But I hope –I believe –theywill in their own way be able to cope with as well as my grandfather coped, and learn the lesson my grandfather taught me all those years ago.On the day I took them to Storvassdal, I hope they would somehow understand the importance of the little boat and its simple message ofself-reliance.High in the mountain, I hesitated to speak lest I disturb ourtranquility. Then Claire looked up and broke my reverie as she said softly, ―Grandpa, someday I’ll come back.‖She paused. ―And I’ll bring mychildren.‖Pete Sampras started playing tennis young and makes no plans to stop anytime soon. The man who has a calm demeanor, boyish shyness and the looks of a star proves again and again what so many players, critics and fans can’t deny: he can win, and always does. In 1990, when Sampras was only 19 years old and seeded twelfth in the U.S. Open, he slammed his way into the finals and became the youngest man to win the tournament. And we all knew after that first Grand Slam victory there would be no looking back.Over the years, the quiet giant has gone on to win eleven more Grand Slams: six Wimbledons, three more U.S. Opens, and two Australian Opens. Sampras’s most beloved titles have come on the grasses of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club. In 1993, he won his first Wimbledon title, and since that year, has gotten to and won in every final, except for a quarterfinal defeat by in 1996. He is the winningest man at Wimbledon in the Open Era and is one championship away from tying the all time record of seven titles that was set in the late 1800s. The historic grounds of Wimbledon and the intimate Center Court has become a home for Sampras, a ―cathedra‖ as he once said. He will undoubtedly go down in the history books as the greatest.Passage 4The ocean covers three quarters of the earth’s surface, produces 90 percent of all its life-supporting oxygen, and is the driving force behind the entire weather system. There are over 450 million cubic miles of sea water on the earth; and each cubic mile contains over 150 million tons of minerals.So vast and so pervasive is the sea that if the earth’s crust were made level, ocean water would form a blanket over 8,000 feet deep.The oceans contribute immeasurably to the earth’s life support system as well as provide an untapped storehouse of food, minerals, energy, and archaeological treasure.Advanced atmospheric diving suits permit researchers to descend to depths of 1,500 feet. Yet the ocean’s average depth is greater than 12,000 feet. It is at these depths that remarkable discoveries are being made, discoveries which only a short time ago would have been impossible.In that depth, where darkness is absolute and pressure exceeds eight tons per square inch, robotic submersibles have discovered enormous gorges, four times deeper than the Grand Canyon. Here, too, are volcanoes that vastly outnumber those on land. Landslides the size of Rhode Island have been recorded, as well as raging undersea storms that go completely unnoticed on the surface while dramatically rearranging the underwater landscapes.Passage 5It is a curious fact that nine people out of ten become happier when faced with some small misfortune. On my first visit to America, thirty-five years ago, a train in which I was travelling became stuck in a snowdrift so that we did not arrive in New York until a great many hours after all the food on the train had been eaten up. I was beginning to expect that the passengers would draw lots as to who should be eaten, but, far from that, everybody was in the best spirits. People who would have hated each other in ordinary circumstances found each other quite agreeable, and everybody reached an obviously exceptional level of happiness.I observed the same thing in a really bad London fog. An ordinary fog is a mere nuisance, but a fog so bad that you cannot see your own feet brings consolation even to the most melancholic. People begin to speak to complete strangers –a thing which in London is not much done. They recall the far worse fogs that they remember in their youth; they tell of friends who got lost at Hyde Park Corner and were only found again by accidentally running into a policeman in quite another part of the town. Everybody laughs, everybody is jolly –until the fog clears, when they again become sober, grave and responsible citizens.Unfortunately, this mood, which is appropriate enough for small mishaps that cannot be prevented, is apt to extend itself to large misfortunes that could have been avoided.Passage 6What was the origin of the oil which now drives our motor-cars and aircraft? Scientists are confident about the formation of coal, but they do not seem so sure when asked about oil. They think that the oil under the surface of the earth originated in the distant past, and was formed from living things in the sea. Countless billions of minute sea creatures andplants lived and sank to the sea bed. They were covered with huge deposits of mud, and by processes of chemistry, pressure and temperature were changed through long ages into what we know as oil. For these creatures to become oil, it was necessary that they should be imprisoned between layers of rock for an enormous length of time. The statement that oil originated in the sea is confirmed by a glance at a map showing the chief oilfields of the world; very few of them are far distant from the oceans of today. In some places gas and oil come up to the surface of the sea from its bed. The rocks in which oil is found are of marine origin too. They are sedimentary rocks, rocks which were laid down by the action of water on the bed of the ocean. Almost always the remains of shells, and other proofs of sea life, are found close to the oil. A very common sedimentary rock is called shale, which is a soft rock and was obviously formed by being deposited on the sea bed. And where there is shale there is likely to be oil.Passage 7For me the most interesting thing about a solitary life, and mine has been that for the last twenty years, is that it becomes increasingly rewarding. When I can wake up and watch the sun rise over the ocean, as I do most days, and know that I have an entire day ahead, uninterrupted, in which to write a few pages, take a walk with my dogs, read and listen to music, I am flooded with happiness.I am lonely only when I am overtired, when I have worked too long without a break, when for the time being I feel empty and need filling up. And I am lonely sometimes when I come back home after a lecture trip, when I have seen a lot of people and talked a lot, and am full to the brim with experience that needs to be sorted out.Then for a little while the house feels huge and empty, and I wonder where my self is hiding. It has to be recaptured slowly by watching the plants and, perhaps, by looking again at each one as though it were a person.It takes a while, as I watch the surf blowing up in fountains, but the moment comes when the world falls away, and the self emerges again from the deep unconsciousness, bring back all I have recently experienced to be explored and slowly understood.Passage 8Making a long trip to the supermarket and queuing for hours used to be the normal weekly routine for British and American shoppers. But since the 1990s, there is a better way to get your groceries. Supermarket shopping on the Internet has boomed in the UK and the USA.The major supermarkets have their own websites, and if you order on-line with them, for a small extra sum such as $8 / £5 the supermarkets will do your shopping for you and deliver it to your door. If you shop with them regularly, they will ―remember‖your favorites items so you can order them next time without searching for them!These days thousands of people in the UK and the States regularly do their supermarket shopping in this way. In contrast, in many rural areas of Britain there has been a return to the traditional outdoor market. Farmers’markets, where farmers sell their products directly to the customers, had practically died out in Britain because of the attraction of the supermarkets, but they have been resurrected recently, both to help farmers make more profits, and to provide customers with ―real‖food again, such as fresh meat, eggs, vegetables and preserves. Organic food has become very popular, and some producers run a ―box service‖, where they deliver a weekly box of fruit and vegetables to your door. Customers can’t select the food—they just receive whatever is in season—but it is guaranteed to be fresh and free from chemicals, and now you can often order these on-line too!。
