51 [D]【译文】他建议简不要把食物匮乏的情况告诉任何人，【解析】考查动词搭配和动词不定式的否定形式。advise sb．to do／not to do sth．表示“建议某人做／不做某事”。D为正确答案。
52．[B]【译文】他操作起那部新机器就好像他受过这方面特殊的训练一样。【解析】考查状语从句巾的虚拟语气。as if/ though引导的虚拟语气，如果从句中谓语动词先于主句谓语动词的动作或状态发生，从句应用过去完成时．故选B。
53．[D]【译文】你真好!把这些碗碟都洗了，但你不必这样做的。【解析】考查情态动词的用法。mustn’t have done没有这种形式，对过去的否定推测要用couldn’t have done来表示。shouldn’t have done表示“本不应该做而做了”；oughtn’t to have done表示“本不应该做而做了”，含有责备的意思．不符合题意。本句不需要用到虚拟语气，D正确。
54．[D]【译文】尽管他很喜欢她，但有时又觉得她烦人。【解析】考查让步状语从句。当as引导让步状语从句时，从句要倒装(即将从句的表语或状语放在as之前)．．although引导时，从句用正常语序。
55. [B]【译文】新扩建的运动场有原来的3倍大。【解析】考查倍数。A is three(four，etc．) times the size(height，length，width，etc．)of B意为“A的大小(高度、长度、宽度等)是B的三倍(或四倍等)”，故选B。
56．[C]【译文】我希望我能够做到的那一点点是有些用处的。【解析】考查定语从句中关系代词的用法。当先行词是不定代词(如：all，little，much等)或被它们修饰时，要用that，不用which。what不可以引导定语从句，when表示时间，在句中作状语。此处the little作为先行词，故选C。57．[C]【译文】我喜欢秋天晴朗明亮的天气。【解析】考查“动词+it+when／if从句”结构。该结构中，it用作形式宾语，它的真正的宾语则是由when／if引导的
从句。此结构也可适用于appreciate，enjoy，dislike，love，hate，prefer等少数动词。
58．[B]【译文】我喜欢弹钢琴，但弹得不好，苏菲也一样。【解析】考查“so+be动词／助动词/情态动词+主语”结构的用法，该结构表示“……也一样”。但当前面的句子是两个分句，或者当前面的句子既含有肯定句又含有否定句时，用“I t is／was the same with sb．”或“So it is／w as with sb．”来表达前述的多种情况也适用于后者，故选B。
59．[C]【译文】他们试图与大使馆取得联系，但却是白费力气。【解析】考查倒装旬的用法。in vain表示否定的意思，类似地，n0，little，h ardly，seldom等置于句首时句子要部分倒装，即把助动词或情态动词放在主语之前。在此句中，主语为第三人称复数，时态为过去时，助动词应为did，故选C。
60．[D]【译文】他刚写完文章，灯就熄了。【解析】考查时间状语从句的用法。表示“一(刚)……就……”的固定结构有no sooner…than…，h ardly…when…以及as soon as…。根据句中的hardly，可知应选D。
61.[D]【译文】真遗憾!就他的能力和经验而论，他本可能做得更好的。【解析】考查“情态动词+完成体”的用法。might+have done表示“本可能做却没有”；must+have done只用于肯定句中，表示对过去情况的肯定推测，意为“想必，一定”；needn’t have done一般用于否定旬表示“本不必做的事情却做了”；couldn’t have done表示“不可能做了某“I他和我都读不懂日语。”这句话与下列哪个选项含义相当?
62.[A]【解析】考查句子的意思。no more…than表示对两者的否定，意为“与……一样不”，故选A。
63．[A]【译文】下面哪一个词可以填入“You’d better do it by yourself,——you?”，以构成完整的句子?【解析】考查反义疑问句，疑问部分的形式。当陈述部分有had better，反意疑问部分用hadn’t，故选A。
64．[C]【译文】在“What do you think he likes?”一句中，what在句子中充当什么成分?【解析】考查句子成分间的关系。在该句中，do you think 为插入语，在what he likes中，主语是he，谓语是likes，what即为likes的宾语，表示他喜欢的“内容”，故选C。
65．[C]【译文】“他是最不适合做这项工作的人”在下列选项中，哪个选项与本句意思不同?【解析】考查句子意思。me last person意为“最不……”。如：He is the last person to tell a lie．(他最不可能说谎。)，故C理解错误。
66．[C]【译文】你不该不听你爸爸的话。不管怎样，他是个经验丰富的教师。【解析】形近动词词义辨析题。A．deduce“推论，演绎”；8．d eliberate“仔细考虑，商议”；C．defy“对抗，藐视”；D．denounce“指责，告发”。根据以上词义，故选C。
67．[D]【译文】新地铁将为去城市各处提供方便。【解析】动词词义辨析题。consume“消耗，消费”；eliminate“排除，淘汰”；formulate“规划，使公式化，明确阐述”；facilitate“使便利．促进”。只有D符合。

69．[B]【译文】最近《科学》杂志上刊登的一篇文章指出，该岩石中的有机化学成分大部分是来自地球的污染，而不是来自于火星上的细菌。【解析】形近名词词义辨析题。A．configuration,“轮廓，结构”；B．constitution“宪法，体质，构造”；C．condemnation“谴责，定罪”：D．co ntamination“污染”。

72．[A]【译文】那个小女孩很害怕，紧抓住我的手不松开。【解析】动词词义辨析题。loosen“解开，放松”；remove“移除”；relieve“缓解，消除”；dismiss“解雇，开除”。由于小女孩害怕，所以应该是紧抓“我”的手不放松之义，故选A。
73．[B]【译文】鲍伯并不笨，但他在上学期的期末考试中成绩并不理想。【解析】形容词词义辨析题。由but可知Bob虽然考得不好，但并不表示他“迟钝的，笨的”，故选8。gloomy “黑暗的。令人沮丧的”和tedious“乏味的，单调的”可首先排除。awkward更偏指做事“不灵活的，不灵巧的”；dull则指“(反应，理解方面)迟钝的，呆笨的”，故8更符合。
74．[C]【译文】我的指导老师时常提醒我要利用一切机会来提高英语水平。【解析】动词词义辨析及固定搭配。assure sb．sm．“使某人确信某事”；inform“通知”；avail of“利用”；notify“通知，报告”。由句意可知，应该是利用每个机会，故选C。

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。
大学英语四级经典必备500句 第十三天 39. Can you give me a hand，Mike, Could you give me a ride? 点睛:can you和could you都是表示请求的句 型，意为“你能……吗,” ※ give me a hand意为“帮我一个忙”，give me a ride意为“载我一 程”。与此类似的说法还 有:give me a reason “给我一个理由”，give me a chance“给我一次机会”，give me a hug “给我一个拥抱”。 ※ 此外，还有一个非常口语化的说法give me a break，它的意思更微妙。如: 1) You really think Jennifer is the prettiest girl in our class,Give me a break～There’re several girls in our class who are better-looking than she is.(在这 句话里，give me a break 是表示不同意对方的意见。) 2) Look，kid，I’m working on a term paper that’s due tomorrow. I promise to play the video game with you after dinner，OK,Come on;give me a break so I can finish this～(在这 句话里，give me a break表示“你别烦我啦”。) 40(Most have worked their way up from sales representatives，and they are very proud of the role they played in the company’s

今年考的三套翻译题均是跟中国的公共交通相关的内容，介绍了公交车、飞机、地铁服务的提升，以及市民生活水平的提高。展现了我国社会的发展和人民幸福水平的提升。 交通方式这一话题是考生日常所熟知的，也比较贴近考生的生活，词汇对于考生来说不是问题，“公交车”、“航空”等都是小学初中就接触到的词汇，但是需要考生去积累一些组合词汇，例如：“私家车private car”、“老年市民senior citizens”等。 对段落内容的理解也不是难事，毕竟交通方式是生活中老生常谈的话题，主要的难点在于一些固定的句式和搭配，例如“随着经济的发展和人民生活水平的提高”是考生耳熟能详的“万金油”句式。 诸如此类句式还有：“曾是……used to be…”、“越来越……more and more…”这些表达应该是考生在平时的学习中慢慢积累的。 此外，时态语态也是考生容易出错的点，由于汉语和英语表达习惯的不同，汉语中不常用被动，或者即使表达被动的意思也不会体现在句式上，例如：“公交车设施不断更新”，从字面并没有任何提示是被动，但语义的理解却带有被动的含义，翻译成英语时一定要体现出“be+过去分词”的结构。 又如“许多城市……一直努力……”,需要判断，这个动作发生在过去的某个时间节点，一直持续，并还可能持续下去，最后确定此处应选用现在完成进行时，在平时的学习中，应理解每种时态对应的情况，才能更加贴切地表达出原文所要传达的意思 句子的语序调整仍值得考生注意。时间状语、地点状语、原因状语、目的状语和方式状语仍然是重要的考点，一般情况下都要后置。 其次是句型的变化。注意运用被动语态(从中英文语用习惯以及动词发出者的逻辑主语去改句子)、插入语(例如，“包括许多农民和外出务工人员”)、there be 句型(非人主语+有/存在。例如，中国有越来越多的城市开始建设地铁)和It为形式主语的句子(例如，乘飞机出行对大多数中国人来说是难以想象的)进行改句，防止句式单一。 过去，乘飞机出行对大多数中国人来说是难以想象的。 In the past, travelling by airplane was unimaginable for most Chinese.

四级英语知识点总结 四级英语知识点总结 英语不像汉语可以有固定的形容过去与现在的词语，要想表达不同时间的内容就必须懂得时态的转换。英语中事情发生的时间可分为现在、过去、将来和过去将来四种形式，发生的方式可分为一般、过去、进行和完成进行四种形式。 将时间形式和动作方式结合起来，就构成了以下：一般、完成、进行、完成进行几种时态。下面我们为大家仔细总结了英语中常用的几种时态，希望对大家的考试有所帮助。 现在：现在一般时do、现在完成时have done、现在进行时is doing、现在完成进行时have been doing 过去：过去一般时did、过去完成时had done、过去进行时was doing、过去完成进行时had been doing 将来：将来一般时will do、将来完成时will have done、将来进行时will be doing、将来完成进行时will have been doing、过去将来：过去将来一般时would do、过去将来完成时would have done、过去将来进行时would be doing、过去将来完成进行时would have been doing 英语的时态是靠动词的变化和时间状语来表达的。英语中的时态共有十六种，但是常考的或较常用的只有9种。 要掌握英语的时态和语态，必须掌握好英语中的助动词：第三人称单数：does。
主语+be+v.ing〔现在分词〕形式 They have lived in Beijing for five years. 他们在北京已经住了5年了。 4、一般过去时 表在过去某个特定时间发生且完成的动作，或过去习惯性动作，不强调对现在的影响，只说明过去。常跟明确的过去时间连用，如：yesterday; last week; in 1945, at that time; once; during the war; before; a few days ago be动词+行为动词的过去式，否定句式：在行为动词前加didnt，同时还原行为动词，或waswere+doing+其它 Beijing was hosting the 29th Olympic Games in August 2008. 在20xx年8月，北京正在举行29届奥运会。 6、过去完成时 表示过去某个时间之前已经完成的动作，即过去完成时的动作发生在“过去的过去”，句中有明显的参照动作或时间状语，这种时态从来不孤立使用。 7、一般将来时 表在将来某个时间会发生的动作或情况。常和tomorrow, next year等表示将来的时间状语连用。 am/are/is+going to+do 或will/shall+am/is/are/about to + do 、am/is/are to + do;
公共英语四级模拟试题及答案解析（14） (1~5/共5题)Part BRead the following text carefully and them translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2. Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese.As part of more comprehensive compliance and ethics programs, many companies have formulated internal policies pertaining to the ethical conduct of employees. These policies can be simple exhortations in broad, highly-generalized language (typically called a corporate ethics statement), or they can be more detailed policies, containing specific behavioral requirements (typically called corporate ethics codes). 1 They are generally meant to identify the company′s expectations of workers and to offer guidance on handling some of the more common ethical problems that might arise in the course of doing business. 2 It is hoped that having such a policy will lead to greater ethical awareness, consistency in application, and the avoidance of ethical disasters. 3 An increasing number of companies also requires employees to attend seminars regarding business conduct, which often include discussion of the company′s policies, specific case studies, and legal requirements. Some companies even require their employees to sign agreements stating that they will abide by the company′s rules of conduct. Many companies are assessing the environmental factors that can lead employees to engage in unethical conduct. A competitive business environment may call for unethical behavior. Lying has become expected in fields such as trading. An example of this are the issues surrounding the unethical actions of the Saloman Brothers. Not everyone supports corporate policies that govern ethical conduct. Some claim that ethical problems are better dealt with by depending upon employees to use their own judgment. Others believe that corporate ethics policies are primarily rooted in utilitarian concerns, and that they are mainly to limit the company′s legal liability, or to curry public favor by giving the appearance of being a good corporate citizen. Ideally, the company will avoid a lawsuit because its employees will follow the rules. 4 Should a lawsuit occur, the company can claim that the problem would not have arisen if the employee had only followed the code properly. Sometimes there is disconnection between the company′s code of ethics and the company′s actual practices. 5 Thus, whether or not such conduct is explicitly sanctioned by management, at worst, this makes the policy duplicitous (搞两面派), and, at best, it is merely a marketing tool. 第1题 第2题 第3题 第4题 第5题 下一题 (6~10/共5题)Section I Listening ComprehensionDirections:This section is designed to test your ability to understand spoken English. you will hear a selection of recorded materials and you must answer the questions that accompany them.
