10参考译文The Contribution of Science and Technology to AgricultureIn the sphere of agricultural science and technology, China has been narrowing its gap with the advanced countries. The contribution rate of scientific and technological progress to China agriculture has increased from 20 percent in 1949 to 4.2 percent. The sci-tech agricultural departments have made tremendous progress in bio-technology, new and high technology and basic research, and the cultivation of plant cells and tissues, haploid breeding and the research on its application have already reached world advanced level. Bilinear hybrid rice, hybrid corn breeding, and multi-crop planting technologies have reached or got close to world advanced level.In addition, an important breakthrough has been made in the utilization of the advantages of hybrid beans.Since 1949, Chinese agricultural scientists have bred over 40 new crops, including nearly 5,000 high-yield, good-quality varieties with strong resistance. Thus the major crops have been renovated four to five times, with an increase of yield by 10 to 30 percent each time. The per-hectare yield of grain crops has increased from l. 16tons in 1950 to 4.82 tons, an increase of over 1.8 times.The Chinese scientist Yuan Longping, who is internationally renowned as Father of Hybrid Rice for his tremendous achievementsin the breeding of hybrid r ice, has rewritten China’s history of rice cultivation in the second half of the 20th century and has made extraordinary contributions to the solution of mankind’s food problem. Thanks to his contributions, 51 percent of China’s paddy-fields is used to grow fine varieties of hybrid rice, with an average increase of 20 percent in yield.To spread advanced sci-tech achievements to the countryside, relevant government departments have carried out a number ofsci-tech programs directly geared to the economic development ofrural areas, such as the Spark Program, the Promotion Plan of important Scientific Achievements, the Bumper Harvest Plan, andthe Prairie Fire Program, which have played an important role insci-tech education.promoting farmers’Meanwhile, agricultural departments have imported more than100,000 crops and nursery stocks, and have cultivated a number ofnew varieties of rice, corn and wheat.

英译汉In today’s interconnected world, culture's power to transformsocieties is clear. Its diverse manifestations –from our cherished historicmonuments and museums to traditional practices and contemporary art forms –enrich our everyday lives in countless ways. Heritage constitutes a source ofidentity and cohesion for communities disrupted by bewildering change andeconomic instability. Creativity contributes to building open, inclusive andpluralistic societies. Both heritage and creativity lay the foundations forvibrant, innovative and prosperous knowledge societies.What is culture? Culture is who we are and what shapes ouridentity. No development can be sustainable without including culture. UNESCOensures that the role of culture is recognized through a majority of theSustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including those focusing on qualityeducation, sustainable cities, the environment, economic growth, sustainableconsumption and production patterns, peaceful and inclusive societies, genderequality and food security. UNESCO is convinced that no development can besustainable without a strong culture component.To ensure that culture takes its rightful place in developmentstrategies and processes, UNESCO has adopted a three-pronged approach: itspearheads worldwide advocacy for culture and development, while engaging withthe international community to set clear policies and legal frameworks andworking on the ground tosupport governments and local stakeholders tosafeguard heritage, strengthen creative industries and encourage cultural pluralism.Today, creativity is emerging as one of the most promisingavenues for changing how we see cities. Whether by revitalizing the localeconomy, rethinking transport or housing policies, reclaiming urban spaces, oropening up new horizons for young people, creativity is one of the drivingforces behind urban policies and initiatives. Cities worldwide are focusingtheir attention on the cultural and creative industries as an inspiration fortheir future.This vision is promoted by elected representatives and citypolicy-makers, who see it as a strategic lever for innovation when it comes totackling contemporary urban issues, whether on an economic, social orenvironmental front. More importantly, however, it is a vision shared by professionalsand citizens, who are taking action in their own neighborhoods and communitiesto build more sustainable and more human cities.This vision of creative urban governance is the driving forcebehind the UNESCO Creative Cities Programme and Network (联合国教科文组织创意城市网络). Since its creation in 2004,the Network has established itself as a strategic platform for promoting andsharing this new approach to sustainable cities. Through itsstandard-settingand operational actions, UNESCO has paved the way for demonstrating theessential role of creativity in urban sustainability, assisting national andlocal authorities and advocating this vision at an international level.Culture and creativity play a key role in sustainable urbandevelopment. They contribute to diversifying the economy and generating jobsbut they also enhance the quality of life of citizens by participating to acity’s social structure and cultural diversity.参考译文：在今天这个相互关联的世界里，文化改变社会的力量是显而易见的。

2019年翻译考试catti三级笔译模拟练习题汉译英“一个国家，两种制度”是中国政府为实现国家和平统一而提出的基本国策。

按照“一国两制”方针，中国政府通过与英国政府的外交谈判成功解决历史遗留的香港问题，于1997年7月1日对香港恢复行使主权，实现了长期以来中国人民收回香港的共同愿望。

香港从此摆脱殖民统治，回到祖国怀抱，走上了与祖国内地优势互补、共同发展的宽广道路。

香港回归祖国后，“一国两制”由科学构想变成生动现实。

中央政府严格按照香港基本法办事，认真履行宪制责任，坚定支持香港特别行政区行政长官和政府依法施政;香港特别行政区依法实行高度自治，享有行政管理权、立法权、独立的司法权和终审权，继续保持原有的资本主义制度和生活方式不变，法律基本不变，继续保持繁荣稳定，各项事业全面发展。

“一国两制”在香港日益深入人心，得到包括香港同胞在内的全国人民的衷心拥护和国际社会的广泛好评“一国两制”作为一项新生事物，需要在实践中持续探索、开拓前进。

回顾总结“一国两制”在香港特别行政区的实践历程，全面准确地理解和贯彻“一国两制”方针政策, 有利于维护国家主权、安全和发展利益，有利于保持香港长期繁荣稳定，有利于继续推动“一国两制”实践沿着准确的轨道向前发展。

参考译文“One country, two systems” is a basic state policy the Chinese government has adopted to realize the peaceful reunification of the country. Following this principle, the Chinese government successfully solved the question of Hong Kong through diplomatic negotiations with the British government, and resumed the exercise of sovereignty over Hong Kong on July 1, 1997, fulfilling the common aspiration of the Chinese people for the recovery of Hong Kong. As a result, Hong Kong got rid of colonial rule and returned to the embrace of the motherland, and embarked on the broad road of common development with the mainland, as they complemented each other’s advantages.Hong Kong’s return to the motherland turned “one country, two systems” from a scientific concept into vivid reality. The central government strictly adheres to the Basic Law of Hong Kong, earnestly performs its constitutional duties and stands firm in supporting the administration of the chief executive and the government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) in accordance with the law. The HKSAR exercises a high degree of autonomy in accordance with the law, and is vested with executive, legislative and independent judicial power, including that of final adjudication. The previous capitalist system and way of life remain unchanged, and mostlaws continue to apply. Hong Kong continues to prosper, its society remains stable, and full development is being witnessed in all undertakings. The “one country, two systems” policy enjoys growing popularity in Hong Kong, winning the wholehearted support from Hong Kong compatriots as well as people in all other parts of China. It is also thought highly by the international community.“One country, two systems” is a new domain in which we constantly explore new possibilities and make new progress in pioneering spirit. A summary of the policy’s implementation in the HKSAR, and a comprehensive and correct understanding and implementation of the policy will prove useful for safeguarding China’s sovereignty, security and development interests, for maintaining long-term prosperity and stability in Hong Kong, and for further promoting the “one country, two syst ems” practice along the correct track of development.。

That spreads diseases and causes other public and personal problems. It is no accident that "Toilet" opens with a beautifully lit scene of women trudging out of their village right before sunrise, each one carrying a little brass jug of water to wash with. They are traveling in a group for safety. Rural women sometimes endure taunts and even sexual assault when they relieve themselves outdoors, so they travel in small groups, often before dawn, for protection. “This is a real problem，” said Jagmati Sangwan，a women’s rights advocate. “So many women, especially landless women, face a lot of violence when they go to the bathroom outside.” To avoid being leered at during the day, some women hold on for hours for darkness to fall. Waiting that long can create health problems, particularly for pregnant women, who are highly susceptible to urinary tract infections, experts say. A recent study found a troubling correlation between pregnant mothers who had no toilet facilities and low birth weight. Not helping matters, hard-liners with the governing Bharatiya Janata Party, or have photographed women who relieve themselves outside in an effort to shame this year, a man who stood up for such women was beaten to death. Government officials say they have spent $4 billion to help install 50 million toilets so far, building community latrines and providing subsidies for people to put them in their homes. The Modi government runs a website bestowing on top-performing villages a special “ODF”(Open Defecation Free) status. Their efforts have earned praise abroad. Bill Gates, the billionaire co-founder of Microsoft, wrote on his blog: “I can’t think of another time when a national leader has broached such a sensitive topic so frankly and so publicly. Even better, Modi backed up his words with actions.” But Mr. Modi’s detractors say there may be more emphasis on image than deed, and that in many areas party apparatchiks are so eager to fall in line with the prime minister's directives that they are putting up latrines that are not connected to sewers or septic systems. Several businessmen in New Delhi said government agencies are in such a rush that they are awarding contracts left and right with little oversight and often to businesses that know nothing about sanitation. According to Indian news reports, countless rupees have disappeared in shady toilet deals. Sanitation specialists say that with less than 5 percent of India’s nearly 8,000 cities and towns having sewage treatment plants, it is far from clear where all the waste will go. “There’s a blind scramble to make a toilet，whether it is usable or not,” said Bezwada Wilson, an official with the Sanitation Workers' Movement, an advocacy organization. “It has become a business，and resulted in the corporatization of the toilet.”【正确答案-参考解析】：参加考试可见death of Diana, Princess of Wales, on Aug. 31, 1997, shook Britain and the New York Times asked journalists who covered Diana and the deadly car accident, which also killed her companion, Dodi Al-Fayed, and their driver, Henri Paul, to share their memo and reflections. Diana was considered disloyal and unhinged, an unguided missile, when she went on the BBC in 1995 to talk of her emotional distress. ('There were three ofus in this marriage, so it was a bit crowded.")In a sign of how much things have changed, William and Harry are marking the anniversary by speaking publicly about her, with royal approval. Her death also marked a turning point in the history of Britons5 relationship to their own ids, ushering in an era in which people have new license to express themselves and feelings can weigh more heavily than reason, Mr. Freedland said. “The reaction to her death is a preview of the Brexit landscape, in which emotion trumps expertise，”he said.“It was a shock to people — we didn't think it was part of the British mind-set — and now, after Brexit, you can see there was something growing there, a willingness to give two fingers to the experts.”(Instead of using their middle fingers, Britons use what is known as a two-fingered salute.) ?Public opinion polls suggest nobody is particularly fond of Prince Charles, who at 68 is still waiting for his chance to become king. But they also show that the royal family, led by the seemingly indestructible 91-year-old queen，endures as a comforting unifying thread，providing a constitutional underpinning for a nation whose quirks include the fact that it has no written constitution. “The royal family is key to our constitution,”, Geordie Greig, editor of The Mail on Sunday, which publishes its share of royal-related articles, said in an email. “It provides a permanent and historical foundation going back more than 1,000 years.” The pomp and circumstance of its spectacles — the weddings of Charles and Diana and of William and Kate; the funeral of Diana — unify the country “with a familial heartbeat that also resonates around the world,” he added. At the very least, the royal family provides a gossipy distraction for a nation fretting about where it belongs and where it is going in this fraught era of Brexit. When is Harry going to propose to his girlfriend, Meghan Markle, and does it matter that she is Canadian,describes herself as mix race and is an actress How disappointing is it that, at 35, William has already lost much of his hair How expensive was Kate's sister's very big, very fancy engagement ring Not everyone loves the royal family. Clearly anyone who visits Diana's memorial fountain in Kensington Gardens is part of a self-selecting group, hardly a representative sample of public opinion. But a recent stop there showed how Diana, even after all this time, remains part of the conversation. “I feel bad for Diana, the way they treated her” said Kristina Landgraf, a German tourist. t6She was a good person, she was kicked out of the royal family, and tried to have a personal life.” Visitors to Buckingham Palace said that the royal family held a fascination, even for those who are not really a royal family sort of person.【正确答案-参考解析】：参加考试可见Section 3 Cloze Test(In the following passage, there are 20 blanks representing words that are missing from the the passage，each blank has 4 choices marked by letters A, B, C and D is only ONE right the corresponding letter as required on your machine-scoring ANSWER SHEET.)someone who researches generational differences, I find one of the most frequent questions I’m asked is “What generation am I in” If you were born before 1980, that’s a relatively easy question to answer: the Silent Generation (91) born between 1925 and 1945; baby boomers were born between 1946 and 1964; Gen X followed (born between 1965 and 1979). Next (92) millennials, born after 1980. But where do millennials end, and when does the next generation begin Until recently, I (and many others) thought thelast millennial birth year would be 1999 — today's 18-year-olds.

These teens and young adults all have one thing in common: Their childhood or adolescence (99) with the rise of the smartphone. A 2015 survey found that two out of three . teens owned an iPhone. (100) this reason, I call them iGen, and as I explain in my new book “iGen: Why Today’s Super-Connected Kids are Growing up Less Rebellious, More Tolerant, Less Happy —and Completely Unprepared for Adulthood”，they’re the first generation to spend their adolescence with a smartphone. What makes iGen different Growing up with a smartphone has (101) nearly every aspect of their lives.
