Text 2.1Each of you is a witness to that potential, in what you have learned and achieved here, and in your own hopes for the future. Twenty years ago, almost to the day, President Ronald Reagan spoke at this university and expressed the essence of economic and political freedom. // It is based, he said, on a belief in the dignity of each man, woman, and child. Free institutions, he said, reflect, in appreciation of the special genius of each individual, and of his special right to make his own decisions and lead his own life.//诸位在这里学业有成，诸位对未来充满憧憬，在座的每一位都是这种潜力的见证。
几乎在整整二十年前，里根总统曾到贵校发表演讲，道出了经济和政治自由的真谛，他说，自由的根基在于坚持男女老幼都具有尊严的信念。
他还说，自由的制度反映了尊重每一个人特有的聪明才智，尊重每一个人拥有自主自决、自由自在生活的特定权利。
Compared to President Nixon‟s, or even President Reagan‟s day, many Chinese citizens are now freer to make their own ways in life –to choose careers, to acquire property, and to travel. And across this land are many millions of young people just like you, with their own abilities and their own expectations of a better life for themselves, their families and their country.// 与尼克松总统访华甚至里根总统访华的时期相比，如今大量中国公民获得了更多的自由，正在开拓自己的生活道路。
Module 4 Note—taking in interpretingI Theory and skills口译笔记的特点与结构安排口译笔记是译员应该掌握的一项核心技能.口译笔记是译员记忆的延伸和补充，记录得当的笔记能减轻译员工作时的记忆负担，保证工作质量，确保信息的完整、准确.由于口译受时间所限，口译笔记具有即时、简短、个性化的特点。
在笔记训练中没有标准的笔记供效仿，而只有一些示范和建议。
大家应针对自己的实际情况选择适当的记录方法。
由于时间所限，笔记不必也不可能是意义的完整再现。
译员不应该迷信笔记,认为一切信息都应该体现在笔记中，而彻底忽略了理解和记忆的主导地位。
译员必须要做到“脑记"和“手记”的相互协调，优化脑力资源的分配,保证口译的成功.口译笔记的这些特点决定了它与课堂笔记和速记的不同。
一般不主张学员花大量时间钻研速记。
当然,速记的记录方法和某些符号可以有所取舍地结合到口译笔记系统中来.尽管口译笔记具有个性化的特点，但是笔记的结构一般作如下安排：1. 采用纵向、阶梯式缩进结构。
将笔记纵向安排,一目了然，同时易于调整信息前后顺序,体现信息之间的逻辑关系。
而阶梯式缩进的结构，则有助于译员区分信息之间的并列、主次等关系，获得清晰的视觉效果。
2. 结构要宽松，多分行.这样可方便目光移动,节省阅读时间。
并列的内容尤其要注意分行，哪怕是一个字一行，千万不要挤在一起。
3. 左右各留出一定边距。
在记录时要注意在页面的左右各留出约1－2厘米的边距，用于补充信息或连接前后信息.4. 横线明确结束。
译员应该在翻译结束同时从容地划横线以明确上一段讲话和下一段讲话之间的分界限，并示意讲话人继续。
此外，译员使用的笔记本最好是带活页圈的上翻式记录本，约手掌宽,封底较厚为佳。
记录用的笔，建议用按压式的而不是带笔帽的，这样一手就可操作，还不会有笔帽掉落的尴尬；建议用圆珠笔或水写笔而不是铅笔和钢笔，防止出现断笔芯和漏墨水的危险。
4-4 音乐天才A Gifted MusicianQ: 海伦，你对媒体有什么忌讳吗？Q: Helen, is there anything that you wish the media wouldn’t ask you?A: 没什么忌讳的。
我喜欢新闻记者的提问，因为只要记者问有题要问我，那就说明我还干得不错。
A: No, I like inquiries from the press people, because as long as they are asking questions, I’m doing okay.Q: 你把自己的首张专辑献给你的母亲，请问她对你的艺术生涯产生了什么样的影响？Q: You dedicated your debut album to your mom. In what way did she impact your art career? A: 我的母亲是一位歌唱家，也是我的挚友。
我很崇拜她。
她非常了不起，在很多方面都非常优秀，在精神和音乐两方面都很出色。
A: She was a vocalist and one of my best friends. I adored her. She was a tremendous induividual in so many ways, spiritual and musical in particular.Q: 你在歌曲创作方面有没有一种不同寻常的写作方式？Q: Do you have a particular method for songwriting?A: 嗯，我不知道有没有特殊的歌曲作词方法。
我先作曲。
先思考一下歌曲的旋律，然后再看看有没有灵感，歌词会不会冒出来。
一般而言，旋律出不来，十之八九歌词也不会出来。
A: Well, I don’t know if I have. I start with the music. I try to be melodic first and I go ahead and see if the words will come. Generally, if the music isn’t happening, nine out of ten times the words aren’t happening.Q: 你的专辑有没有中心思想？Q: Is there any common message in the album?A: 我不知道有没有中心思想，我觉得这张专辑讲的是真诚，这是我自己的一种感悟。
第二部分练习篇Exercise OneListen to the following texts and then reproduce in the same language at the end of each segment:Text 1.1Mr Governor, Ladies and Gentlemen, It is my great pleasure to be invited to attend the Guangdong Governor‟s International A dvisory Council Meeting.//I would like to take this opportunity to highlight our report to the Governor and share with you our view on the role of telecommunications and information infrastructure (ICT) in the economic development.//International experience suggests that Information and communication technology (ICT) infrastructure and services can have a substantial impact on the competitiveness of firms, nations, and regions. The most important impact of ICT does not come from manufacturing ICT goods, but from investing in and using ICT infrastructure and services.//According to the ITU, global telecommunications services sales reached US$ 1.1 trillion in 2002, more than three times the value of telecommunications equipment sales of US$335 billion.The value created by use of telecommunications services is estimated to be far higher than the total services revenue. Thus investment in ICT infrastructure creates value many times that of the investment itself. //Firm level studies show that ICT investments help firms gain competitiveness through improved efficiency, reduced inventories, better designs, and faster rates of innovation. ICT allows firms to increase the efficiency of their business processes by decreasing procurement and transaction costs, improving accounting and control, enhancing management systems, and streamlining their supply chains.//Several studies also indicate that ICT is a key driver of productivity and growth. There are several distinctive features of ICT that make them particularly important to national and regional economies, which include the pervasive and cross-cutting nature of ICT, the low or declining marginal costs of using the technologies, the ability to foster efficiency gains through streamlining supply chains, the facilitation of the creation of entirely new business models and industries, and the global nature of ICT.//All of these characteristics imply that ICT can have an important impact on competitiveness and economic development.//Text 1.2主席先生：我很高兴参加2001’国际投资论坛。

In terms of economic power, it is a member of Big Seven, the world's leading industrial nations, ranking along with the United States, France, the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany and Japan. Canada plays an active role in international affairs, often taking part in peacekeeping and humanitarian missions and spearheading aid and development programs. Its scenery of mountains, oceans, forests and prairies is spectacular. It has a lively and rich culture, with many world famous actors, pop stars and writers. In annual "quality of life", Canada regularly is rated as having the best standard of living in the world because of its health care, education, clean environment, social welfare, and so on. In contrast to its physical size, economic power and international prestige, Canada's population is very small. The current population is about 30.6 million. This paradox of having a small number of people in a very large, resource-rich area gives rise to some of the misleading perceptions people have about Canada. Most people do not know very much about Canada. Mention the country and usually one of two images will spring to mind. On the one hand, you might picture a sparsely populated, frozen country where people live in igloos, eat fish, hunt bears and constantly endure snow and cold. On the other, you might think Canada is a country that is "just like America". Even Americans are inclined to think of Canada as the 51st state, a part of America that through some quirk of history is not one of the United States. It is easy to understand how such misleading impressions of Canada have become engrained. It is true that most of Canada lies very far north. Large areas of the country are wild, virtually unpopulated arctic region, full of dangerous animals and freezing temperatures. But most Canadians live in the south of the country, about 90 percent of the population is estimated to live within a few hundred kilometers of the Canadian-American border, in a climate that is much less extreme.填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：ranking along with）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：Italy，Germany and Japan）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：ininternational affairs）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：aid and development programs）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：spectacular）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：the best standard）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：clean environment）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：In contrast to）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：about 30.6 million）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：the misleading perceptions）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：one of two images）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：a sparsely populated）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：constantly endure）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：are inclined to think of）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：misleading impressions）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：arctic region）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：90 percent）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：a few hundred kilometers）解析：填空项1:__________________ （正确答案：less extreme）解析：二、{{B}}B: Listening Comprehension{{/B}}(总题数：2，分数：10.00)StatementsDirections: In this part of the test, you will hear several short statements.

Thus they build monuments, or they tell stories from parents to children, or they write things down. To give shape to the stories, to show how events related to one another, ancient people began to write what we call histories. In both Greek and Latin, the word "historia" meansa story or a narrative. Historians were regarded as those who told the story of the past. One of the earliest historians, a Greek named Herodotus, always tried to make sure that information was as accurate as possible. Herodotus lived in the 400's B.C. He wrote a detailed account of the Persian Wars, the great struggle between the Greeks and the Persians that had taken place in the years before he was born. A great deal of our information about these wars exists only because Herodotus found it out and wrote it down. Here, to give one example, is his account of how the battle of Salamis began. This was a naval battle at which the Athenian ships defeated the Persians that had taken place in the year 480 B.C. It was one of the turning points of the war, and the question was how the Greeks, badly outnumbered, dared to fight. Here is how Herodotus explained it: Themistocles, the Athenian leader, told them to board their ships, whereupon the Greeks put to sea. The fleet had hardly left shore when they were attacked by the Persians. At once, most of the Greeks began to retreat, and were about to touch land again when one of the Athenian captains shot forward and charged one of the enemy. The two ships became entangled, and could not be separated. At this the rest of the Greek fleet came up to help, and the battle began. Ever since Herodotus, historians have recovered and preserved information about past events that otherwise would have been lost.

The act I'm referring to is the choice you make every time you sit down to a meal. More than a million Canadians have already acted: they have chosen not to eat meat. And the pace of change has been dramatic. Vegetarian food sales are showing unparalleled growth. Especially popular are meat-free burgers and hot dogs, and the plant-based cuisines of India, China, Mexico, Italy and Japan. Fuelling the shift toward vegetarianism have been the health recommendations of medical research. Study after study has uncovered the same basic truth: plant foods lower your risk of chronic disease; animal foods increase it. The American Dietetic Association says: "Scientific data suggest possible relationships between a vegetarian diet and reduced risk for several chronic degenerative diseases." Animal foods have serious nutritional drawbacks: They are devoid of fiber, contain far too much saturated (饱和的) fat, and may even carry traces of hormones, steroids (类固醇) and antibiotics. It makes little difference whether you eat beef, pork, chicken or fish. Animal foods are also gaining notoriety as breeding grounds for E. coli (大肠杆菌), campylobacter (弯曲菌) and other bacteria that cause illness. So why aren'tgovernments doing anything about this? Unfortunately, they have bowed to pressure from powerful lobby groups such as the Beef Information Center, the Canadian Egg Marketing Agency and the Dairy Farmers of Canada. According to documents retrieved through the Freedom of Information Act, these groups forced changes to Canada's latest food guide before it was released in 1993. This should come as no surprise: Even a minor reduction in recommended intakes of animal protein could cost these industries billions of dollars a year. While health and food safety are compelling reasons for choosing a vegetarian lifestyle, there are also larger issues to consider. Animal-based agriculture is one of the most environmentally destructive industries on the face of the Earth.23. Which of the following are NOT recommended as healthy meals?A.(A) Because plant foods lower your risk of chronic disease; animal foods increase it. √B.(B) Because governments are advising people to take less meat.C.(C) Because the plant-based cuisines of India, China, Mexico, Italy and Japan are very popular.D.(D) Because Animal-based agriculture can badly pollute environment.解析：[听力原文] Why there has been a shift toward vegetarianism ?A.(A) They are devoid of fiber.B.(B) They contain far too much saturated fat.C.(C) They can lead to chronic degenerative diseases. √D.(D) They may even carry traces of hormones, steroids and antibiotics.解析：[听力原文] Which of the following are NOT the nutritional drawbacks of Animal foods?A.(A) The vegetarians.B.(B) The governments.C.(C) The lobby groups. √D.(D) The American Dietetic Association.解析：[听力原文] Who were responsible for the change of Canada's latest food guide before it was released in 1993?{{B}}Questions 27—30{{/B}}{{B}}Questions 27—30{{/B}}（分数：4.00）A.(A) 2.B.(B) 3. √C.(C) 4.D.(D) 5.解析：[听力原文]27-30 SW: Good evening, this is Sports World greeting you here at 20:30 GMT. Have you ever participated in a risky sport? What was it? In today's program we have Jenny Adams, a very athletic woman to talk to us about risky sports. Hang gliding is a dangerous sport. Jenny, what do you enjoy about the sport, and have you ever had an accident? Jenny: No, I've never been seriously injured. Maybe I've just been lucky. Once my glider turn upside down, and I lost control.I almost crashed, but I parachuted away just in time. And I've always felt hang gliding is quite safe—though landing is sometimes difficult. But it's fantastic to be able to fly like a bird! SW: And you've been mountain climbing for years now, right? What is the most difficult part? Jenny: Yes, I've been mountain climbing for 3 years, and the toughest part I believe is the high altitudes. They could be rather hard on the human body. I've experienced lack of oxygen, tiredness, and dehydration. I've lived through storms, avalanches, and strong winds. But that's what I like about mountain climbing—overcoming danger. SW: What exactly are the bends? And have you ever experienced them while scuba diving? Jenny: You get the bends when you've been deep under water. If you come up out of the water too quickly, bubbles form in your blood. The bends can be serious, and they can even cause death. But the bends are rare. Scuba diving isn't really dangerous. And。
