【文章大意】本文是一篇叙议结合的文章。文章告诉我们，做一个吹毛求疵的人很容易，但是人生如果不那么刻意找茬的话，也是挺好的。文章通过Kerry的经历告诉我们，在没有什么大不了的时候，不要那么刻意地挑毛病，要学会忍住不说，这并不是让我们忽视问题的存在，而是因为它们的存在不影响什么，太过于挑毛病，生活过得就会失去热情。[语篇解读] 本文为夹叙夹议文，题材是生活态度。世界上最容易的事情之一是做一个挑错的人，然而当你不去忙于挑错的时候，生活会变得很快乐。作者通过讲述发生在Kerry身上的一个故事诠释了这一点。本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。Kerry本来是一个事事挑剔、苛刻的女孩，但通过她最好的朋友遭遇了车祸这件事，她变得对一切不再那么刻薄了。这篇文章旨在告诉我们：不要用一种挑剔的眼光去看世界，要心胸开阔一些。当我们养成这种习惯的时候，就能重拾生活中的热情，而且心中会充满爱。36．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”。【答案】B【解析】上文中提及挑毛病很容易，下文用however一词进行转折，告诉我们，不找毛病其实也挺好，故选great。36．B由首段和后文作者讲述的故事寓意可知，当你不忙于挑错
的时候．生活会变得令人愉快(great)。great 使人快乐的；lonely孤独的，寂寞的；quiet安静的，平静的；uneasy不安的，忧虑的。37．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”。【答案】A【解析】下文叙述信的内容，因此此处理应是描述收到了一封信，故选received。37．A几年前，我收到(received)一封十七岁的Kerry的来信。answer回复；expect期盼；reject 拒绝。几年以前，我收到一个来自17岁女孩kerry的信。
38．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”。【答案】C【解析】上文提及她是个世界一流的找茬者，后文提及人们总是做让她恼火的事情，因此此处理应是被一些事情弄得很恼怒，bother 此处表示“使恼怒”之意。38．C由下句的People were always doing things that annoyed her 可知，作为世界一流的挑错者，她几乎总是被各种事情所烦扰(bothered)。这个叫做Kerry的女孩说自己是一个世界级的找错者，她总是被各种事情困扰着。
[评析]高考完形填空题考查最多的题目就是根据上下文语境解题。比重约占60％左右，因此充分利用上下文信息提示或暗示是解此类题的关键。
39．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”。【答案】D【解析】上文提及人们总是做让她恼火的事情，所以此处理应是没有什么事情是够好的，用nothing。39．D人们总是使她烦恼，从来没有什么事情(nothing)是足够好的。人们总是做着那些惹她恼怒的事情，没有一件事是好的。
40．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“常识推断”。【答案】B【解析】上文提及她对一切都恼火，而且高度地自我批评。总是找朋友的茬，这当然是不好的，因此填boring。40．B她成了一个真正的令人讨厌的(boring)人。boring无聊的，烦人的；caring关心的；interesting有趣的；surprising令人惊奇的。她具有高度的自我批评精神，她也会对自己的朋友挑毛病。她成为了一个非常糟糕的人。
41．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”和“上下文照应”。【答案】A【解析】上文提及的都是她对人对物的态度，下文说的是她态度的
转变，因此填attitude。41．A不幸的是，一次可怕的意外事故改变了她的态度(attitude)。从下文可知，朋友出事后，Kerry改变了自己的态度。plan计划；measure措施；explanation解释。不幸的，一场恐怖的事故发生改变了她的态度。
42．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”。【答案】D【解析】此处说的是对Kerry而言，几乎难以释怀的就是在事故发生前的那一天，Kerry去看望了她的朋友，而且一整天都在批评着她朋友的各种事情，正是因为这件事，导致了Kerry的态度大变，故用impossible。42．D几乎不可能(impossible)处理的事情是，在朋友出车祸前一天Kerry还批评了朋友。urgent紧急的；unnecessary不必要的；certain确定的。她最好的朋友在一场车祸中受伤很严重，让事情处理起来变得不可能的事情是，发生事故的前一天Kerry拜访了她的朋友…
43．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“上下文照应”。【答案】C【解析】上文已经提及了这次车祸事故，故用accident。43．C在朋友出车祸(accident)的前一天，Kerry拜访了她的朋友。occasion时机，场合；event事件；adventure 冒险(活动)。她最好的朋友在一场车祸中受伤很严重，让事情处理起来变得不可能的事情是，发生事故的前一天，Kerry拜访了她的朋友，在这期间全程批评了她选择男朋友的眼光…44．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”。【答案】D【解析】依据语境可知，此处是Kerry 在批评她朋友对男友的选择、朋友的生活方式、朋友与其母亲相处的方式及各种各样的事情，故选choice，其余选项不符合语境。44．D Kerry 在整个拜访朋友期间一直在批评朋友对男朋友的选择(choice)，她的生活方式等。发生事故的前一天，Kerry(凯里)拜访了她的朋友，在这期间全程批评了她选择男朋友的眼光、她生活的方式、她与母亲联络时候的方式，还有各种其他她认为她需要表达的…
45．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”。【答案】C【解析】本文提及的是Kerry在朋友发生车祸事故前的吹毛求疵的方方面面，也就是她要对各种事情发表自己的看法，故用express。45．C各种各样其他的Kerry认为她需要表达
(express)的东西。hear听见；contribute捐赠；admit承认。
46．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”。【答案】A【解析】在朋友发生车祸前，她对事情挑剔的态度没有改变，而上文提及态度改变是因为朋友的事故，故此处理应是意识到自已的恶习，故选aware of。46．A直到朋友严重受伤时Kerry才意识到(became aware of)她挑错的习惯。be/become aware of=realize意识到，认识到。
47．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”。【答案】C【解析】此处是描述其态度的转变：感激生活而非对待所有事情都很刻薄，因此选judge。47．C很快地Kerry学会了欣赏生活而不是刻薄地评判(judge)一切。discuss讨论；realize认识到；settle解决。
48．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”。【答案】B【解析】此处说的是她将她的新的智慧转移到生活的其他方面，而不是找茬上，本文围绕的就是Kerry对待生活琐事的态度，故选life。48．B Kerry还能够把新的观念转移到她的生活(life)的其他方面。四个选项中只有life 具有概括性，囊括了其他三个选项。family家庭；career事业，生涯；education教育。49．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“逻辑关系推断”。【答案】C【解析】此处说的是我们大多数人并非对于找茬那么极端，但是说实话，我们也可能会对这个世界进行猛烈的批评，前后两个分句间是转折关系，故选but。49．C由语境可知此处表转折关系，故选but。so表因果关系；or 表选择关系；for表因果关系。
50．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”及“上下文照应”。【答案】D【解析】对于不好的事情，我们当然是会猛烈批判的，故选critical。50．D但是当我们坦诚的时候，我们可以对这个世界吹毛求疵(critical)。critical 批评的；proud骄傲的，自豪的；sure确定的；hopeful充满希望的。可能我们中的大多数都不会极端的的寻找错误，但是当我们诚实的面对的时候，我们可以尖锐的批判这个世界。51．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”。【答案】D【解析】尽管过分的挑毛病不可取，作者在这里并不是建议大家忽视问题的存在，因
此选ignore合理。51．D我不是在暗示你忽视(ignore)问题的存在。face面对；create创造；solve解决。我并不是在建议你无视问题。52．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”。【答案】B【解析】此处or引导并列句，作者也不是建议假装认为事情比实际的要好。上文通过Kerry的例子可知，Kerry认为事情一无是处，所以这句话作者要说的是有问题不能忽视问题，也不能假装事情比现实的要好，而是建议我们接受现实，因此此处选better。52．B也不是在暗示你假装认为事情比实际情况好一些(better)。我也不是在建议你假装事物比它们自身更好。53．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”。【答案】A【解析】作者在此处告诉我们对待现实的方式：接受现实，至少当事情没有什么大不了的时候，要接受事情的现实状况，而不吹毛求疵，故选at least。53．A我只是暗示你学会顺其自然。接受事物的本来面目——至少(at least)大多数时间是这样的。至少在大多数时间里，你学着容忍事物的原态。
54．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”和“固定搭配”。【答案】B【解析】a big deal 表示“大不了的事情”。54．B尤其是当那不是真正的大是大非(deal)的时候。尤其是当这不是一个特别大的事情。
55．【考点】本题考查语篇理解中“措辞界定”和“上下文照应”。【答案】A【解析】本段中的Train一词暗示了此处答案用practice。这段话告诉我们：要训练自己忍住不说，稍加练习，事情就会进行地很顺利，我们也就会找到对生活的热情和喜爱。55．A训练强忍着不说出自己的看法，再加上些许实践(practice)，你就会真的擅长顺其自然。当你做到这一点的时候，你将重新获得对生活的激情和热爱。训练你自己忍着不说那些刻薄的话，小小的实践一下，你会变得很擅长放手。
find fault with sb./sth对某人(或某事)吹毛求疵；faultfinder吹毛求疵者，揭人短处者；Perhaps most of us aren’t as extreme at fault-finding,其中as是副词，意为“达到与……相同的程度，与……等同”修饰形容词extreme。
参考译文：
世界上最容易的事情之一是做一个挑错的人，然而当你不去忙于挑错的时候，生活会变得很快乐。
几年前，我收到一封十七岁的Kerry(凯里)的来信。她把自己描述成为世界一流的挑错者，她几乎总是被各种事情所烦扰。人们总是做一些使她烦恼的事，从来没有什么事情是足够好的。她高度地自我批评，总是找朋友的茬。她成了一个真正令人讨厌的人。
不幸的是，一次可怕的意外事故改变了她的态度。她的最好的朋友经历了一次可怕的车祸。几乎难以释怀的(不可能处理的)事情是：在事故发生前的那一天(在朋友出车祸前一天)，Kerry(凯里) 拜访了她的朋友。并且在整个拜访期间一直批评朋友对男朋友的选择，朋友的生活方式，朋友与其母亲相处的方式以及她感觉到(认为)她需要表达的各种各样的其他事情。直到朋友严重受伤时Kerry(凯里)才意识到她挑错的习惯。很快地Kerry(凯里)学会了欣赏生活而不是刻薄地评判一切。Kerry(凯里)还能够把新的观念(智慧)转移到她的生活的其它方面。
或许我们大多数人并不是如此爱挑剔，但是当我们坦诚的时候，我们都有可能会对这个世界有尖锐的批评(我们可以对这个世界吹毛求疵)。我不是在暗示你忽视问题的存在。也不是在暗示你假装认为事情比实际情况好一些，我只是暗示你学会顺其自然。接受事物的本来面目——至少大多数时间是这样的。尤其是当那不是真正的大是大非的时候。
训练强忍着不说出自己的看法，再加上些许实践，你就会真的擅长顺其自然。当你做到这一点的时候，你将重新获得对生活的激情和热爱。

卷一： 真题：中文热词通常反映社会变化和文化，有些在外国媒体上愈来愈流行。例如，土豪和大妈都是老词，但已获取了新的意义。 土豪以前指欺压佃户和仆人的乡村地主，现在用于指花钱如流水或喜欢炫耀财富的人，也就是说，土豪有钱，但是没有品位。大妈是对中年妇女的称呼，但是现在特指不久前金价大跌时大量购买黄金的中国妇女。 土豪和大妈可能会被收入新版的牛津(OXford)英语词典，至今约有120中文加进了牛津英语词典，成了英语语言的一部分。 参考答案： The Chinese heated words usually reflect social changes and culture, some o f which are increasingly popular with foreign media. Tuhao and dama, forexa mple, are both old words, but they get differentmeanings now. The word tuhao used to mean rural landlords who oppress their tenants and servants, while now it refers to people spending money withoutlimits or those showing off all around. That is to say, tuhao owns money rather than taste. T heword dama is used to describe middle-aged women. However, it is regarde d as a special wordto call those Chinese women who rushed to purchase gol d when th e gold price decreasedsharply not long ago. Tuhao and dama may be included in the new Oxford dictionary. Up to now, ab out 120 Chinesewords have been added to it, becoming a part of English lang uage. 卷二： 最近中国科学院(Chinese Academy of Science )出版了关于其最新科学发现与未来一 年展望的年度系列报告。系列报告包括三部分：科学发展报告，高技术发展报告，中国可持续战略报告。第一份报告包含中国科学家的最新发现，诸如新粒子研究与H7N9病毒研究的突破。该报告还突出强调了未来几年需要关注的问题。第二份报告公布了一些应用科学研究的热门领域，如3D打印和人造器官研究。第三份报告呼吁加强顶层设计，以消除工业升级中的结构性障碍，并促进节能减排。 Chinese Academy of Science recently published an annual report about its latest scientific findings and the prospect of the next year. The report consists of three parts: science development, more advanced technology development and the sustainable strategy of China. The first one includes the latest findings of Chinese scientists, such as the research of new particle and the breakthrough in the study of H7N9 virus. Furthermore, it highlights some problems we need to focus in next few years. The second one announces some heated fields in applied science. For example, the 3-dimension print and the study of human organs. The third one suggests people enhance the top design in order to get rid of the structural obstacles in industrial upgrading and to promote the energy-saving and emission-reduction. 卷三： 北京计划未来三年投资7600亿元治理污染，从减少pm2.5排放入手。这一新公布的计划
Within the span of a hundred years, in the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, a tide of emigration—one of the great folk wanderings of history—swept from Europe to America. 46) This movement, driven by powerful and diverse motivations, built a nation out of a wilderness and, by its nature, shaped the character and destiny of an uncharted continent. 47) The United States is the product of two principal forces—the immigration of European peoples with their varied ideas, customs, and national characteristics and the impact of a new country which modified these traits. Of necessity, colonial America was a projection of Europe. Across the Atlantic came successive groups of Englishmen, Frenchmen, Germans, Scots, Irishmen, Dutchmen, Swedes, and many others who attempted to transplant their habits and traditions to the new world. 48) But, the force of geographic conditions peculiar to America, the interplay of the varied national groups upon one another, and the sheer difficulty of maintaining old-world ways in a raw, new continent caused significant changes. These changes were gradual and at first scarcely visible. But the result was a new social pattern which, although it resembled European society in many ways, had a character that was distinctly American. 49) The first shiploads of immigrants bound for the territory which is now the United States crossed the Atlantic more than a hundred years after the 15th- and 16th-century explorations of North America. In the meantime, thriving Spanish colonies had been established in Mexico, the West Indies, and South America. These travelers to North America came in small, unmercifully overcrowded craft. During their six- to twelve-week voyage, they subsisted on barely enough food allotted to them. Many of the ship were lost in storms, many passengers died of disease, and infants rarely survived the journey. Sometimes storms blew the vessels far off their course, and often calm brought unbearably long delay. “To the anxious travelers the sight of the American shore brou ght almost inexpressible relief.” said one recorder of events, “The air at twelve leagues’ distance smelt as sweet as a new-blown garden.” The colonists’ first glimpse of the new land was a sight of dense woods. 50) The virgin forest with its richness and variety of trees was a veritable real treasure-house which extended from Maine all the way down to Georgia. Here was abundant fuel and lumber. Here was the raw material of houses and furniture, ships and potash, dyes and naval stores. 思路： 1.大致介绍文章主要内容 2. 逐段介绍每段的主要内容→分析句子结构→指出翻译时需要注意的点→试译→整理译文→总结翻译技巧和需掌握的单词

He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport. He reported the case to the police and then sat there，lost and lonely in strange city, thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one. Late in the evening, the phone rang. It was a stranger. He was trying to pronounce my husband’s name and was asking him a lot of questions.

2 015年6月13日全国大学英语四级翻译真题及答案 大米 在西方人心目中，和中国联系最为密切的基本食物是大米。长期以来，大米在中国人的饮食中占据很重要的地位，以至于有谚语说“巧妇难为无米之炊”。中国南方大多数种植水稻，人们通常以大米为食；而华北大部分地区因为过于寒冷或过于干燥，无法种植水稻，那里的主要作物是小麦。在中国，有些人用面粉做面包，但大多数人用面粉做馒头和面条。 In the mind of Westerners,Chinese people have the closest connection to rice,basic food for the Chinese.For a long time,rice occupies a very important position in the Chinese diet.There is even a saying that "even a clever housewife cannot cook a meal without rice".People in south China plant and live on rice,while people in the most parts of North China cannot plant rice due to excessively dry and cold weather. The main crop there is wheat. In China, some people use flour to bake bread,while most people make steamed bread and noodles with flour. xx 中国是世界上最古老的文明之一。构成现代世界基础的许多元素起源于中国。中国现在拥有世界上发展最快的经济，并正经历着一次新的工业革命。中国还启动了雄心勃勃的太空探索计划，其中包括到20年建成的一个太空站。目前，中国是世界最大的出口国之一，并正在吸引大量外国投资。同时，它也在海外投资数十亿美元。2011年，中国超越日本成为世界第二大经济体。 快递 据报道，今年中国快递服务（courier service）将递送大约120亿件包裹。这将使中国有可能超越美国成为世界上最大的快递市场。大多数包裹里装着网上订购的物品。中国给数百万在线零售商以极具竞争力的价格销售商品的机会。仅在11月11日，中国消费者就从国内最大的购物平台购买了价值90亿美元的商品。中国有不少这样的特殊购物日。因此，快递业在中国扩展就不足为奇了。

2014.12.1st 反应在艺术和文学中的乡村生活理想是中国文明的重要特征。这在很大程度上归功于道家对自然地感情。传统中国画有两个最受青睐的主题，一是家庭生活的各种幸福场景，画中往往有老人在下棋饮茶，男人在耕耘收割，妇女在织布缝衣，小孩在户外玩耍。另一个则是乡村生活的种种乐趣，画有渔夫在湖上打渔，农夫在山上砍柴采药，或是书生坐在松树下吟诗作画。这两个主题可以分别代表儒家和道家的生活理想。 Rural life ideals reflected in Chinese arts and literature is an important feature of Chinese civilization. This is largely attributed to feelings of Taoism to the nature. There are two most popular themes in traditional Chinese paintings. One is various scenes of happy family life with the elderly drinking teas and playing chess, men plowing and harvesting, women sewing and weaving, or children playing outdoors. The other is a variety of fun in rural life with a fisherman fishing on the lake, farmers cutting firewood or collecting medicinal herbs, scholars reciting poems or painting pictures under a pine tree. These two themes represent separately Confucian and Taoist ideal life.

2015年考研英语一翻译真题解析 一、来源：今年的文章来源于An outline of American history(1954)(《美国历史纲要(1954年英文版)》)，是其中一章The Colonial Period(殖民时期)的节选。这个符合历年来翻译的考查规律，往往都是从书籍中节选段落进行翻译，内容相对于阅读而言，相对于2014年“贝多芬”而言，有些难懂。 二、难度：5句话共151词，相当平稳。其中48题最长，35词;50题最简单，24词。可以说，不同基础的同学都可以从中找到自己熟悉的部分，不至于在这个题上一分未得。 三、句型特点：今年的5句话中，有2句(46，48)是简单句，另外3句(47，49，50)是复合句。其中的复合句无一例外都考查的是定语从句的翻译，并没有涉及到其他从句类型。简单句中考查最多的也是后置定语的翻译。所以，中公考研考前为大家预测的难点中，定语的翻译是绝对考点和重点。 四、逐题详解： 46) This movement, driven by powerful and diverse motivations, built a nation out of a wilderness and, by its nature, shaped the character and destiny of an uncharted continent. 重点词组：out of a wilderness(摆脱荒凉)，by its nature(就其本质而言，从本质来说)，uncharted(未知的;图上未标明的)。 结构分析：整个句子是一个简单句，由and并列谓语动词built和shaped。driven by powerful and diverse motivations是后置定语，修饰movement;out of a wilderness是后置定语，修饰nation;of an uncharted continent是后置定语，修饰character and destiny。 参考译文：这项运动，由多种强大的动机驱动，建立了一个摆脱荒凉的国家，并且从本质上来讲，塑造了一块不为人熟悉的大陆的性格和命运。 47) The United States is the product of two principal forces—the immigration of European peoples with their varied ideas, customs, and national characteristics and the impact of a new country which modified these traits. 重点词组：product(产物)，principal(主要的;首要的)，peoples(民族)，impact(影响) 结构分析：句子的主干是The United States is the product of two principal forces，破折号解释说明forces。of European peoples with their varied ideas, customs, and national characteristics是后置定语，修饰immigration;of a new country which modified these traits是后置定语，修饰impact，其中包含一个定语从句which modified these traits，修饰country。 参考译文：美国是两股主要力量的产物——带有不同思想、风俗习惯和国家特征的欧洲民族的移民，和修改这些特征的新兴国家的影响。 48) But the force of geographic conditions peculiar to America, the interplay of the carried national groups upon one another, and the sheer difficulty of maintaining old-world ways in a raw, new continent caused significant changes. 重点词组：peculiar(特有的，独特的)，interplay(互相影响)，sheer(独特的) 结构分析：整个句子是简单句，主语由三个名词短语用and并列承担，谓宾部分比较短小caused significant changes。主语1中，of geographic conditions peculiar to America是后置
汉译英原题： 学问是自己的事，不能依靠别人的。环境好，图书设备充足，有良师益友直到启发，当然有很大的帮助，但是这些条件具备，也不一定能保证一个人在学问上就有成就。时间也有不少在学问上有成就的人，并不具备这些条件。最重要的因素，还是个人自己的努力。求学是一件苦难的事，许多人不能忍受那必经的艰苦，所以不能得到成功。 参考译文： Learing is one's own business, which cannot rely upon others. It will certainly be of great help, if there are good environments, sufficient books and equipment, as well as instructions and enlightments from scholarly mentors and beneficial friends. But even if you have got all these favorabl e conditions, you cannot be sure to succeed in l earning, for not a few peopl e who have been successful in l earning are not armed with all these things. The most important factor consists in one's own effort. To l earn is rather a painstaking and persevering business. Many a man is a failure because he cannot bear such indispensabl e hardships. 英译汉原题： What I wish for all stud ents is some release from the grim grip of the future. I wish them a chance to enjoy each segment of their education as an experience in itself and not as a tiresome requirement in preparation for the next step. I wish them the right to experiment, to trip and fall, to l earn that d efeat is as educational as victory and is not the end of the world. My wish, of course, is naive. One of the few rights that America d oes not proclaim is the right to fail. Achievement is the national god, worshipped in our media —the million-d ollar athlete, the wealthy executive — and gl orified in our praise of possessions. In the presence of such a potent state religion, the young are growing up old. 参考译文： 我希望于所有学生的是从未来的严酷无情中得到一些解脱.我希望他们有机会把他们每一阶段的教育纯粹作为一种经历来享受,而不是作为一种为下一步作准备的令人厌倦的需要.我希望他们有权利试验、跌跤,并懂得失败如同胜利一样具有教育意义,失败并不是世界的末日.当然,我的希望是天真的.在美国人不赞扬的为 数不多的权利之中,有一个便是失败的权利.成就是民族之神,它在我们的媒体中 受到崇拜—身价百万的运动员,富有的主管人员—在我们对财富的赞美中得到荣耀.年轻人就是在这样一种强有力的国教熏陶下长大的.
