I am talking to the children in the street and also thinking about the very difficult question of how best to learn their language. The problem is 6. far awayfar morefar from simple. Learning a first language is easy. These children, for example, started listening to their own language even before they were born and they will keep 7. workingthinkingpracticing it throughout their lives.

I, however, have not had 8. abilityaccesspurpose to or the benefit of speaking and listening to my second language 9. toonfrom a very young age.

But, instead of holding on to this 14. comfortedcomfortingcomfortable thought for a couple of moments, I turn right around and remind myself that having knowledge and experience is not always 15. positivepossibleworth.

Part 4 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice) Mr. and Mrs. Jones' flat was full of boxes, big and small; trunks (大皮箱); and furniture. The two of them were busy with pencils and paper, checking their list of luggage (行李) when there was a ring at the door. Mrs. Jones went to open it, and saw a well-dressed middle-aged lady outside.

Part 4 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)
A boy between the ages of 6 and 14 still admires his mother and has plenty to learn from her.
But his interests are changing—he is becoming more interested in what men have to offer. A boy knows he is turning into a man. He has to learn from a man to complete his development.
The father's job is to step in over time. If there is no father around, then the child must depend on other men in places such as school. This is happening more frequently and would not be such a problem if there were more male teachers at primary school for boys to look up to.
Children need a lot of extra support. Throughout primary school years and into high school, boys should spend a lot of time with their fathers and mothers, getting their help, learning how to do things, and enjoying their company.
With regard to feelings, at this stage the father is more important. The boy is ready to learn from his father and listens to what he has to say. Often he will take more notice of his father. It's enough to drive a mother wild!
Now is a good time for a father to do "little" things, like playing in the yard on summer evenings, going for walks, telling stories about life, telling him about his own youth, working on hobbies, or playing sports together for enjoyment. This is the time when good memories are created that will be healthy for the son, as well as for the father, for years to come.
Although every boy is different, it's common for boys at this age to get a little argumentative (好争论的), restless, and moody (闹情绪). It's not that they are turning bad—just that they are being born into a new self and birth always means struggle.
I believe this is the age when we fail teenagers the most. In our society all we offer those in their middle teens is "more of the same", that being more school. So it's little wonder that problems arise. But if parents, and fathers in particular, pay close attention to their sons, fewer problems will arise.
36. According to the passage a boy needs the help of _________ to develop well.
A. his mother only
B. his father only
C. neither his mother nor his father
D. both his mother and father
37. One problem for a boy's development is that ________.
A. there are few men teaching in primary schools
B. there are few women teaching in primary schools
C. the boy's interests are changing
D. the boy wants to act as a man
38. A good time for a father to have an influence on his son is ________.
A. when the boy is 14
B. when the boy is at primary school
C. from about age 6 to the 14th birthday
D. from when the boy was born
39. By the middle teens boys argue often with their parents. This means ________.
A. they are turning bad
B. they are turning good
C. they are being born into new selves
D. they are rebelling against their parents
40. The main idea of this passage is that ________.
A. fathers play a large role in raising boys
B. mothers should feel comfortable when their sons' interests are changing.
C. without fathers mothers can raise good men
D. fathers should stay with their sons as much as possible

Part 4 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice) There are different ideas about pets in different parts of the world. In most cultures, animals are in a worse position than human beings. In some cases, however, people treat their pets like members of their families, or perhaps better.
In the United States and Europe, there are special shops that sell clothing and food for cats and dogs.
In many countries of the world, there is special food for pets. It is common for big markets in many places to sell cat food and dog food. However, in a small town in France, there is a special restaurant for dogs. Dogs are the only customers. There is seating for twenty of them. The dogs choose from a variety of dishes on the menu.
Of course, in most parts of the world, pets don't live in such wealth and comfort. People treat their pets in a more practical way. People own cats and dogs because they keep away mice and other unwanted animals. Owners have some loving feelings for their pets, but they do not see them as equal to family members.

Part 4 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice) Once upon a time there was a wise man that used to go to the ocean to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work.
One day he was walking along the shore. As he looked down the beach, he saw a human figure moving like a dancer. He smiled to himself at the thought of someone who would dance on the beach. So he began to walk faster to catch up.
As he got closer, he saw that it was a young man and the young man wasn't dancing, but instead he was reaching
down to the shore, picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean.
As he got closer he called out, "Good morning! What are you doing?"
The young man paused, looking up and replied, "Throwing starfish (海星) in the ocean."
"Well then, why are you throwing starfish into the ocean?" "The sun is up and the tide is going out. And if I don't throw them in they'll die."
"But, young man, don't you realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfish all along it. You can't possibly make a difference!"
The young man listened politely. Then he bent down, picked another starfish and threw it into the ocean, past the breaking waves and said, "It made a difference for that one."
There is something very special in each and every one of us. All of us have a natural ability to make a difference. If we can become aware of that ability, we will have the power to shape the future.

Part 4 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice) The AIDS virus is carried in a person's body fluids (体液). The virus can be passed during sex with an infected partner or by sharing instruments used to take intravenous (静脉注射的) drugs. It can also be passed in blood or fluids made from blood or from a pregnant (怀孕的) woman with AIDS to her developing baby.
Many stories about the spread of AIDS are false. You cannot get AIDS from working or attending school with someone who has the disease. You cannot get it from drinking glasses or other objects used by such persons. Officials say no one has caught AIDS by living with, caring for, or touching an AIDS patient.
There are several warning signs of being infected with AIDS. They include always feeling tired, unexplained (无法解释的) weight loss, and uncontrolled expulsion (排泄) of body wastes. Other warning signs are the appearance of white areas on the mouth, dark red areas of skin that do not go away, and a higher than normal body temperature.
However, just because you have one or more of these conditions does not mean you have AIDS. Always go to a doctor or health center for a complete examination. The doctor may give you an AIDS blood test.
When a virus enters the body, the body's defenses against disease produce antibodies (抗体) to fight the virus. The test shows if the body has produced antibodies to the AIDS virus. Results of the test are known after a few hours. The test tells only if your body has produced AIDS antibodies. It cannot tell if you have AIDS or if you will ever get the disease. In December (1988), the United States government approved (批准) a simpler and faster AIDS blood test. The newer test can confirm (证实) the presence (出现) of the AIDS antibodies in about five minutes.

Part 4 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice) Mr. and Mrs. Albina don't know where all their grown children are living now. Some of them, they know, are in Argentina (阿根廷), but they aren't sure where in Argentina. They aren't sure how old all their children are, either. Ask them, for example, "How old is your daughter Susanna?" and they say, "We're not sure." They might even say, "Which Susanna?" But it is understandable that the Albinas can't remember their children's addresses and ages. After all, they have 53 children.
Mr. and Mrs. Albina, with 53 children, have the world's largest family. Not one of their children is adopted.
When people hear about the Albina's large family, the first question they ask is, "How is it possible? How can one woman give birth to 53 children in her lifetime?" The answer is simple: Every time Mrs. Albina gave birth, she had twins or triplets (三胞胎). She was a triplet herself; she
thinks that's why she always had twins or triplets.
The Albinas married when Mrs. Albina was 12 years old and Mr. Albina was 30. The children came quickly, in twos and threes. The first 21 children were boys. Mrs. Albina loved her sons, but she wanted a daughter very much.
The Albinas spent the early years of their marriage in Argentina. Then they decided to move to Chile(智利). To travel from Argentina to Chile, they had to cross the Andes Mountains. Mr. and Mrs. Albina and their 21 sons made the difficult, two-week journey on mules. One night there was a terrible snowstorm in the mountains. During the snowstorm, Mrs. Albina gave birth to triplets, a boy and two girls! Mrs. Albina now has 16 more girls, including twins who are 15 months old.
The oldest Albina children are in their thirties and forties. They are on their own now, but 18 of the Albina children still live with their parents. The family lives in a poor two-room house in Colina, Chile. The house has electricity but no toilet or running water. The children wash in a small bowl in the dusty backyard.
At times there is very little food in the Albinas' small house. When there is not enough food for everyone, Mrs. Albina makes sure the youngest children do not go hungry. "The smallest eat first, and then the bigger ones. We've always done it that way," she says. Obviously, the Albinas do not have enough money for their big family. Why, then, do they continue to have children?
The Albinas do not use birth control because it is against their religious beliefs. They could let other people take care of their children, but Mrs. Albina will not allow it. "When my two brothers and I were babies," she says, "our mother left us at an orphanage (孤儿院) and never returned. We lived there together until we were five. Then a couple adopted my brothers, and I was left behind. I was heartbroken. I promised myself that when I became a mother, I would never give my children away. Even if I didn't have much money, I would always take care of my children myself." Mrs. Albina has kept her promise.
So, the Albina family continues to grow. Mr. and Mrs. Albina have so many children that they ran out of names for them all and had to give some children the same name. There are three Susannas, three Miriams, two Estrellas, and two Soledades. Will there be a fourth Susanna or a third Estrella? Will the Albinas stop at 53 children, or will there be more? Mr. Albina is 77 years old, and Mrs. Albina is 59. "I'm getting old," she says with a smile. "I would like God to think of me and consider my age. But, if God sends more children to me, yes, there will be more."
36. The Albinas can't remember their children's addresses and ages because ________.
A. they have a poor memory
B. they are too old to remember anything
C. the children don't live with them
D. they have too many children
37. One reason that the Albinas have 53 children is that ________.
A. they adopted some children from others
B. they like children very much
C. Mrs. Albina always gave birth to twins or triplets
D. They were both very young when they got married
38. All the following except ________ meant hard times for Mrs. Albina when the family moved from Argentina to Chile.
A. the Andes Mountains
B. the birth of one boy and two girls
C. the snowstorm
D. the long difficult journey on mules
39. In the future the Albinas will possibly ________.
A. not have any children if they can help it
B. live a better life
C. have more different names for their children
D. use birth control
40. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. The World's Largest Family
B. More Children, Poorer Life
C. A Poor, Happy Life
D. Mr. and Mrs. Albina

翻译硕士考研指导 2016外交学院英语翻硕考研-英汉翻译-如何选词有些词看起来很简单，翻译是一下子就会想到常用的对应词。但有时最常用的对应词却不能准确地表达原作的意思，这是因为一个词的具体含义往往要结合上下文才能确定，在翻译的时候也只有综合上下文来考虑怎样处理这个词，才能译得准确。那么在处理一个词的时候要注意哪些方面呢？ 一、吃透原文 例1：各级干部要认真学习马列著作和毛主席著作，刻苦钻研业务，提高领导水平。（五届人大一次会议文件） Cadres at all levels should apply themselves to the study of works by Marx, Engels,Lenin and Stalin and by Chairman Mao,gain the professional proficiency required by their jobs,and improve their art of leadership. 我们一看到“水平”往往首先想到level.在大多数情况下，译作level是可以的。如“科学文化水平”，译作scientific and cultural level.但是在这里“领导水平”指的是领导能力、领导艺术，所以译作art of leadership. 例2：要奋发图强，把我军的军政素质提高到一个新的水平…… We must work hard to raise to a new height the military and political quality of our army. 这里的“水平”指高度，故译作height,和动词搭配也比较顺。 例3：还要努力读一点历史和小说。 We should also find time to read some history books and novels. 这里“努力”一词理解为“挤出时间”是对的。如译作make an effort,则会让人误解为 我们的文化水平很低，读历史和小说很吃力。 二、免生歧义 例1：延安虽然还没有战争，但军队天天在前方打仗，后方也唤工作忙，文章太长了，有谁来看呢？ Although there is as yet no fighting here in Yanan,our troops at the front

中国矿业大学考博英语真题2015年 Part ⅠReading Comprehension Directions: There are 5 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by four questions or statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on your Answer Sheet. Passage One The purpose of the American court system is to protect the rights of the people. According to American law, if someone is accused of a crime, he or she is considered innocent until the court proves that the person is guilty. In other words, it is the responsibility of the court to prove that a person is guilty. It is not the responsibility of the person to prove that he or she is innocent. In order to arrest a person, the police have to be reasonably sure that a crime has been committed. The police must give the suspect the reasons why they are arresting him and tell him his rights under the law. Then the police take the suspect to the police station to "book" him. "Booking" means that the name of the person and the charges against him are formally listed at the police station. The next step is for the suspect to go before a judge. The judge decides whether the suspect should be kept in jail or released. If the suspect has no previous criminal record and the judge feels that he will return to court rather than run away—for example, because he owns a house and has a family—he can go free. Otherwise, the suspect must put up bail. At this time, too, the judge will appoint a court layer to defend the suspect if he can't afford one. The suspect returns to court a week or two later. A lawyer from the district attorney's office presents a case against the suspect. This is called a hearing. The attorney may present evidence as well as witnesses. The judge at the hearing then decides whether there is enough reason to hold a trial. If the judge decides that there is sufficient evidence to call for a trial, he or she sets a date for the suspect to appear in court to formally plead guilty or not guilty. At the trial, a jury of 12 people listens to the evidence from both attorneys and hears the testimony of the witnesses. Then the jury goes into a private room to consider the evidence and decide whether the defendant is guilty of the crime. If the jury decides that the defendant is innocent, he goes free. However, if he is convicted, the judge sets a date for the defendant to appear in court again for sentencing. At this time, the judge tells the convicted person what his punishment will be. The judge
2015北二外英语翻译硕士真题 1 二外 我学的是法语。今年总体来说不难。 题型无变化，还是35个单选：主要考语法词汇，有不少是往年的真题。一篇完型，今年考得是一篇关于节日给家人送礼物的。阅读两篇：算是整份试卷最难的了，词汇很多不认识，不过作对一大半还是没问题的。汉译法5个句子，也有几个表达是考过了（我看过，没记住啊）。最后一篇法译汉，太不难了，可以称作是历年最简单的，讲的是法国面包消费的问题，但是哟几个单词没猜出来是啥意思。 2 翻译基础 今年的题也比去年简单，汉译英，英译汉都只有一篇。（话说14年的题量得多上一倍，考前模拟一下做完就很有难度啊。考前就猜到今年会较少题量，果然被我猜中！） 词汇翻译：15个英译汉，大概有digit divide； ALS； FTAAP；UNCDP；existentalism；Bogor Goals；sinology；amino acid 汉译英：十八届四中全会亚太经合组织逆袭真人秀和而不同互联互通（忘了，真的是记性不好） 段落翻译：英译汉是关于1992年里约大会后环境方面的问题，主要是关于环境立法的，句子都挺长的。关键是搞清楚逻辑关系和意思吧。 汉译英是一段关于中国传统价值观的，大概是：《中庸》里说：“好学近乎知，力行近乎仁，知耻近乎勇。”最后一句“知耻近乎勇”中的“耻”其实是人之所以为人的一个文明尺度。……孟子说“恻隐之心，人皆有之；……（说了四心）。” 恻隐之心，就是不忍，就是“恕”，就是“己所不欲勿施于人”；恭敬之心，就是文明礼貌；是非之心，就是坚持社会的公平正义；羞恶之心，就是知耻。此四心，孟子称之为“四端”，也就是人开始的地方。没有四心，就不能称之为人，孟子称之为“非人”。 孟子的四端在我们现在社会的意义无需多提。我们当今社会人与人之间的同情心都成了稀罕物。人们的见死不救难道只是因为害怕被法律误判吗？我认为不是。主要原因是人们缺乏同情心……。如果现在要提人们共同的价值观，我认为仁义礼智信最为合适。这五个字来源于中国传统文化的根本价值，应该成为全社会的价值观。 （大概是这个样子）
英语翻译专项习题及答案解析含解析 一、高中英语翻译 1．高中英语翻译题：Directions：Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets. 1．晚上别喝太多的咖啡，会睡不着觉的。（or） 2．事实证明，保持快乐的心态会降低得心脏病的风险。（It） 3．乐观的人不会过分怀念美好的旧时光，因为他们正忙着创造新的回忆。（create）4．追求稳定并不是什么坏事，很多时候这样的态度在促使我们提升自我、挑战难度、攀登高峰。（when） 【答案】 1．Don’t drink too much coffee at night, or you won’t be able to sleep. 2． It is proved that keeping a happy mind reduces the risk of heart diseases. 3．Optimistic people don’t miss the good old days too much, because they are busy creating new memories. 4． The pursuit of stability is not a bad thing. (and) There are many times when such an attitude drives us to improve ourselves, challenge difficulties, and climb peaks. 【解析】 【分析】 本题考查翻译，用括号所给的词将中文翻译成英文。翻译要注意句子的时态和语法的运用。 1．考查祈使句。祈使句 + and/or，前面的祈使句表示条件，or或and引导的分句表示结果这里表示转折关系，故用or。故答案为Don’t drink too much coffee at night, or you won’t be able to sleep. 2．考查名词性从句。翻译时句中用it作形式主语，真正的主语为从句thatkeeping a happy mind reduces the risk of heart diseases.，从句翻译时要注意动名词作主语。故答案为It is proved that keeping a happy mind reduces the risk of heart diseases. 3．考查动词。翻译时注意短语be busy doing忙于做……，时态用一般现在时。故答案为Optimistic people don’t miss the good old days too much, because they are busy creating new memories. 4．考查定语从句。先行词为times，在定语从句中作时间状语，故用关系副词when引导。故答案为The pursuit of stability is not a bad thing.

汉译英 一、P91 ~当今社会，选择的观念无孔不入，种种选择会导致人们越发感到焦虑不安和力不从心。总有人向我们灌输这样的理念：我们可以选择自己的生活方式，可以选择自己的身材，甚至可以选择子女的未来。我们因为这种无所不能的虚假承诺而洋洋得意，同时却忘记了自己做出的选择往往并不理智——要么受到社会认同的影响，要么受到自己内心无意识动机的影响。 The ideology of choice is all-pervasive in today's society, and has contributed to growing feelings of anxiety and inadequacy among consumers. We’re told that we can choose the type of life we live, the type of body we have, even the way our kids will turn out. But while we bask in the false promise of mastery, we forget that the choices we make are often irrational –either linked to socially acceptable, or our own unconscious motives. 二、(P102:4)鉴于甲方拥有合同产品的生产及销售所涉及的技术信息，包括设计、技术、工艺、配方、技能和其他资料的专有权：鉴于乙方以生产、使用和销售合同产品的目的，希望获得使用上述协助的许可证权利；鉴于乙方希望使用甲方所有的下属商标：双方兹就下列内容达成一致： Whereas Party A possesses proprietary technical information includi-ng designs, techniques, process,formulas, skills and other data useful in the contract products’ production and sales; and Whereas Party B desires to acquire the right and licence to use the above-mentioned technical assistance for the purpose of manufacturing, using and selling such products; and Whereas Party B desires to use the following trademarks owned by Party A.

中国矿业大学考博英语阅读理解真题解析与指导 Is it true that the American intellectual is rejected and considered of no account in his society?I am going to suggest that it is not true.Father Bruckbergen told part of the story when he observed that it is the intellectuals who have rejected American.But they have done more than that.They have grown dissatisfied with the role of intellectual.It is they,not American,who have become anti-intellectual. First,the object of our study pleads for definition.What is an intellectual?(46)I shall define him as an individual who has elected as his primary duty and pleasure in life the activity of thinking in Socratic(苏格拉底)way about moral problems.He explores such problem consciously,articulately,and frankly,first by asking factual questions,then by asking moral questions,finally by suggesting action which seems appropriate in the light of the factual and moral information which he has obtained.(47)His function is analogous to that of a judge,who must accept the obligation of revealing in as obvious a matter as possible the course of reasoning which led him to his decision. （PS:The way to contact yumingkaobo TEL:si ling ling-liu liu ba-liu jiu qi ba QQ:772678537) This definition excludes many individuals usually referred to as intellectuals----the average scientist for one.48)I have excluded him because,while his accomplishments may contribute to the solution of moral problems,he has not been charged with the task of approaching any but the factual aspects of those problems.Like other human beings,
北京外国语大学翻译硕士考研信息 学习经验 翻译基础：翻译基础先是30道短语互译，英译汉汉译英各15道，共计30分；段落英译汉汉译英分别1段，每段60分。 30个短语翻译 北外出题紧跟潮流热点，2015年考的“NASA”，bitcoin就是往年考过的，“Paparazzi”也很简单，lady gaga有首歌名就是这个，ALS则是今年流行的Ice bucket Challenge相关，还有十八届四中全会，如果你看了政府工作报告，一定不陌生。当然，也有比较生僻的． 备考方法： 1、首先是中国日报英语点津上的新词新译，北外的好多题都是出自其中，我把英语点津上的词语翻译专门整理打印出来，按照计划每天复习一点。 2、还有就是政府工作报告，这个推荐大家去背诵，不单单是短语，对段落翻译也很有用，比如15年的“量化宽松政策”就是出自政府工作报告，“十八届四中全会”也是。 3、缩略语部分，多积累资料来背诵，但是北外出的缩略语并不难，所以你只要把平常那些重要的记住，就差不多可以应对考试，而且通过真题来看，缩略语一般都是国际上的，例如与联合国相关的，国内的考的比较少。 4、还有就是有一本卢敏出的《笔译二级三级通用的词汇》和China Daily出的一本书《最新汉英特色词汇词典》 第二部分：篇章翻译 总体来说：英译汉相对汉译英来说是简单的 北外出题的方向偏向政治经济，而汉译英有出过类似于政府工作报告之类的，也有出过散文小品之类的，比如之前出过关于“道”的，今年又出了“心”的，什么恻隐之心，礼义廉耻 住：（翻译这个不可能有突飞猛进，需要你坚持练习，但也不要一味地求量，每次练完后要自己进行理解和总结，翻译没有标准的答案，只有谁翻译的比较精，比较雅，比较准，坚持练一段时间，有了量的积累，自己总结体会，进步自然而然就会有的。再次提醒大家，不要求量，每次练过后，及时积累，查缺补漏，把这次翻译练习中暴露的不足马上补上，还有就是一定要坚持每天进行练习，下笔写，不然你会发现时间长不练习的话，手就生了。一定要多多练习，看再多的经验也是没有用的，所以希望大家一定要练习，从实践中提升自己的翻译能力。 还有一点就是翻译时，先把句子看完，不要看一点翻一点，看自己翻译的通不通顺，尤其是英译汉，不要翻译下来的中文，自己都读不懂，想好再下笔，注意语序刚开始翻译可能比较费时，但这是基础，一步步来，没有谁能刚开始就翻译的很好的，在练习时，能让人中你的译文中读出你对原文的理解。翻译时，不要看答案，即使你很想知道这句话到底是怎么翻译的，坚持翻完再对照答案来看，自己对比找出自己那些地方没有翻译出来或者翻译的不好，遇到好的答案就背诵下来。一篇文章可以翻译两三遍，也比把所有文章都翻译一遍的效果好的多！ 百科 试卷结构：25个名词解释，一篇应用文，一篇作文 第一部分：名词解释 1、这部分建议大家先搜集真题，把真题的名词解释都熟记于心，因为北外爱出原题啊，可以把北外的名词解释放在一个表格里，认真分析，你会发现真的有好多原题啊，就以真题为本，把和真题
