此外，每个院校考察的汉语写作与百科知识的侧重点是不同的，比如北大侧重中国古代文学及历史，北外侧重考察时政热点。

而且从翻译硕士英语和英语翻译基础而言，考察的也不同（参考《翻译硕士MTI常考词汇》，首都师范大学出版社，2020年版；《翻译硕士考研真题解析》，首都师范大学出版社，2020年版）。

比如，北大侧重于现当代文学的翻译，北二外侧重经济管理类的翻译等。

(总题数：1，分数：60.00)31.It is a true story which happened during World War II in a certain state in the east of the U.S.A.One day a young man named Jim received an enlistment notice in which he was told to undergo the physical examination the next day. To Jim it seemed like a bolt from the blue. He was troubled so much that he couldn"t get to sleep all the night. In all fairness, Jim wasn"t a coward and he hated the Fascists deeply. But he wouldn"t join the army. Why? It was all because he was in love with a beautiful girl and he would not be separated from his girl friend. "If I could finda way to make the doctors believe there are some defects in my body," he thought, "I would avoid being sent to serve in the army. But how? ..." He thought and thought. Suddenly to his great joy, a good idea crossed his mind.The next morning Jim got to the hospital on time. He was led into a large room where he found an aged medical officer sitting behind a large writing-desk, busy looking through the sheets of paper carefully. "It must be the chief doctor," to himself Jim thought, "and I"d best try not to be paid attention to by that old fellow." With the thought, he hurriedly found a seat to sit down on and took out an out-of-age newspaper, pretending to read it.Not long before that, Jim heard his name called. He knew it was his turn to be examined. When Jim came up to the doctor, the old man raised his head slowly from his papers and took a quick and sharp look at him, then in a whisper he ordered Jim to put his newspaper on the table and take off his clothes at once. Of course, Jim had to do what he was wanted to. After that, he was told to go straight to a corner and sit down on a chair there. But to Jim"s great surprise, no sooner had he seated himself on the chair than he heard the doctor murmuring to his assistants: "Finished! That lad is quite up to the standard.""How can you draw such a conclusion like that before you give me a careful check? It"s too rash!" Still on the chair, Jim shouted at the doctor. "Don"t be impetuous, young man! Get off and put on your clothes, and then I"ll explain it to you." the doctor said calmly.And when Jim stood before the old man, the doctor held out his hand and gave a pat on his broad shoulder. A smile on his face, he said to Jim in kind voice: "My boy, you said we didn"t examine you carefully, didn"t you? But I don"t think it necessary for us to do that. You might be puzzled about this. Now let me tell you how and why." A pause to take a breath, he went on: "When I whispered to you to put down the newspaper and take off your clothes, you did it as I told you. It shows you have good ears. And then when you were asked to go and sit on the chair in that corner, you did it, too. It shows you can see any object within a certain distance. So you are not nearsighted at all. Besides, you were found reading the newspaper just now, and we are certain you are a man of intelligence. In a word, we make no doubt that you are perfect in mind and body. Now I"m glad to say you"ve passed the physical examination, that is to say you"ll be a glorious soldier. Congratulations!"With those words the medical officer stretched out both hands to Jim, and Jim could do nothing but hold them in his own. "I wish you to be a good fighter and fight for the justice and freedom of human beings!" said the old man in an inspiring voice. And Jim was so moved that his eyes were full of tears.Half a year later, Jim was killed in the European battlefield. At this news his girl friend nearly went mad. She dashed down to the shore and stood there, looking out to the boundless ocean. She kept weeping, while calling her lover"s name. "Don"t be like that, my dear." It was an old man"s trembling voice. "Your Jim died a real man. He devoted his life to the people all over the world. It is right that we should be proud of him..." Saving this, the old man, her father, was choked. His only regret was that he had never had Jim know who he was. This old man was no other than the medical officer who had given Jim the health check.（分数：60.00）__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案：()解析：还没多长时间，吉姆就听到有人喊他的名字。

在复习的时候要把重点名词夯实。

育明考研专业课每个科⽬都有总结的重要名词，不妨作为复习的参考。

很多⾼校考研名词解释会重复，这就要考⽣在复习的同时要具备⼀套权威的、完整的近5年的真题，有近10年的最好。

2．育明考研答题攻略：名词解释三段论答题法定义——》背景、特征、概念类⽐、案例——》总结/评价第⼀，回答出名词本⾝的含义。

⼀般都可以在书本找到。

第⼆，从名词的提出的背景、它的特征、相似概念⽐较等⽅⾯进⾏简述。

第三，总结，可以做⼀下简短的个⼈评价。

3．育明教育答题⽰范例如：“战略⼈⼒资源管理”第⼀，什么是战略⼈⼒资源管理（这是答案的核⼼）第⼆，它的⼏个特征，并简单做⼀下解释。

第三，和职能⼈⼒资源管理，⼈事管理等进⾏对⽐。

4．危机应对如果出现没有遇到的名词解释，或者不是很熟悉的名词解释，则尽量把相关的能够想到的有条理的放上去，把最有把握的放在第⼀部分，不要拘泥于以上的答案框架。

5．育明考研温馨提⽰第⼀，名词解释⼀般位于试卷的第⼀部分，很多考上刚上考场⾮常的兴奋，⼀兴奋就容易下笔如流⽔，⼀不⼩⼼就把名词解释当成了简答题。

结果后⾯的题⽬答题时间⾮常紧张。

第⼆，育明考研咨询师提醒⼤家，在回答名词解释的时候以150-200字为佳。

如果是A4的纸，以5-8⾏为佳。

按照每个⼈写字的速度，⼀般需要5分钟左右。

（⼆）简答题1．育明考研名师解析简答题⼀般来说位于试题的第⼆部分，基本考察对某些重要问题的掌握程度。

东北大学翻译硕士总的来说比较贴近时政，考的时事政治比较多尤其是基础英语，建议多看一些中国日报英文版。

基础英语1.30个选择题，前15个挺难得，大都是摘录china daily 上的英文报道，后15个都是语法。

2.阅读共4篇，前两篇10个选择，后两篇5个问答题。

这个是真心难呀！文章每篇800字左右吧，尤其一篇考宗教的，大概是讲天主教要复兴，要超过基督教等等。

文章大意一般能懂，但是问的问题那真是不知所云3.作文是论translator所扮演的角色以及应该发挥的功能。

翻译英语15个汉译英希望工程平等互利，和平共处教育部一国两制1911辛亥革命香港特区计划生育中医兵马俑政协春秋战国时代温室效应象形文字24节气15个英译汉UNGAFRSWTOOPECNAFTACatch-22The old TestamentTranscendentalismSpenserian stanzaiambic pentameterSchema theoryOedipus complexDomestication and foreignizationAchilles’ heel2.两篇文章，第一篇讲的是各种油：动物油，植物油，矿物油。

生词不太多，还可以。

第二篇，汉译英是常见的小品文，杨大辛《从心所欲析》稍微有些难度。

百科写作25个名词解释，多是考中国文化和中国特有的一些词汇，复习好政治词汇。

三皇五帝春秋五霸战国七雄大盂鼎佛教四大名山经济生态红线以房养老。

公文是一篇欢迎词作文，道德下降的今天应该做些什么。

客观讲总体不是太难，但是基础英语是真难呀，我是跨专业考的，都是以专八为准的，成绩也不错但是无奈这基础英语着实让我郁闷了，从第一个选择题开始我就无奈了，四个选项单词一个也不认识，阅读的问题也是让人崩溃呀，作文也没想到，一直准备什么环境污染呀，网络谣言呀，道德约束什么的，哎！准备都没考，真是郁闷，看来15年要再来一次了，这些真题都是我偷偷地抄在准考证的背面的，但是大小有限我也不可能全抄上，而且考试很严，从进考场开始就要检查要过三关，而且考一次准考证就要改一次戳，也不知道是不是就长春这样。

The day may come when the dollar,too,succumbs to a rival.But today is not that day.（原文出自世界经济论坛Will the dollar lose its dominance?育明教育整理）参考译文：1976年以来，美元作为国际货币的角色一直在缓慢减弱。

受其影响颇深的【2】以“人不能两次踏进同一条河流”的格言而自古至今名闻天下，但他却认为世界的本原是【3】。

【4】把万物的本原归结为最小的不可再分的“【5】”，*【5】论是近代物质结构学说的先导。

苏格拉底认为客观真理是存在的，他要为各种【6】范畴寻求普遍的定义。

他反对用【7】知识的方法教育青年，主张用论辩诘难、找出对方论证中的矛盾的方法，启发人们自觉【8】和【9】自己的错误。

这就是“辩证法”一词的最早来源。

苏格拉底自己没有写过什么著作，他的思想主要在他的学生【10】写的《对话录》中保存了下来，后者的名著《【11】》影响深远。

第一段由“勾股定理”西方称“毕达哥拉斯定理”，可以推断出古希腊数学家毕达哥拉斯。

再由“人不能两次踏进同一条河流”推断出古希腊哲学家赫拉克利特。

对于世界的本原的认识，赫拉克利特认为世界的本原是火，而德谟克利特把万物的本原归结为最小的不可再分的“原子”，它们没有性质上的差异，只有形状、排列、状态的不同。

如果以前是学理工科的学员，建议可以看去年的大纲解析，因为在内容上此书一直变化不大。

考研政治的题型是单选题、多选题和主观题，在考试知识点上和高中差别不大，但是题目总体难度要大一些，尤其是多选题。

学员如果想早点入手的话，可以从8月份左右开始看考研政治大纲解析并结合真题进行练习。

在12月份之后，可以记忆重要知识点以应对主观题。

翻译硕士英语，题型主要有单选、阅读、写作。

难度跟专八差不多。

单选题考的是基础的语法、搭配之类。

大家可以用《英语专业考研考点精梳与精炼-基础英语》和《育明教育—翻译硕士真题集》来进行练习，上面有很多单选题可以练练，语法、搭配讲解也很多。

阅读有4篇，总的来说材料不难，但是题目却有点迷惑人，如果是英语专业的同学我建议可以每天做专八的阅读，还有就是我上面说的那两本书上的阅读题。

写作的话跟专八的题目差不多的，这个主要靠平时多练习。

Please read the passages and then write your answers on the ANSWER SHEET.An allowance is an important tool for teaching kids how to budget, save and make their own decisions. Children remember and learn from mistakes when their own dollars are lost or spent foolishly.How large an allowance is appropriate? Experts say there is not a right amount. Actual amounts differ from region to region, and from family to family.To set an appropriate allowance for your child, work up a weekly budget. Allow for entertainment expenditures such as movies and snacks. Next, include everyday expenses such as lunch money, bus fare, and school supplies. "If you make the child responsible for these bills," says Josephine Swanson, a consumer specialist, "he or she will learn to budget for necessary expenditures."Finally, add some extra money to make saving possible. If you can, keep your child"s allowance in line with that of his friends. A child whose purchasing power falls away below his peers" can feel left out.It can be tough, but avoid excusing your children when they make a mistake with their allowance. When Brooke Stephens was ten and growing up in Jacksonville, her mother gave her $5 a week, $1.75 of which was for bus fare and lunch. "If you lose your money," Brooke"s mother told her, "you walk home" One week the girl spent all her allowance in a candy store, then she called home for a ride. "Morn made me walk home," recalls Stephens, now a financial planner in Brooklyn. "At first I was angry. But I finally realized that she was trying to teach me an important lesson." Experts advise that an allowance should not be tied directly to a child"s daily chores. Kids should help around the house not because they get paid for it but because they share responsibilities as members of a family. You might, however, pay a child for doing extra jobs at home, which can develop his or her initiative.1. What does the text mainly discuss?A. How to develop a child"s initiativeB. How to work up an amount of pocket moneyC. How to teach a child to save moneyD. How to teach a child about money2. It can be inferred from the passage that if a child is given an allowance, he or she may ______.A. spend all the money very soonB. be spoiled and finally ruinedC. feel responsible and careful about moneyD. lose the money and cannot return home3. In Paragraph 3, the words "his peers" refer to ______.A. his parentsB. his teachersC. his financial expertsD. his friends4. Why does the author mention Brooke Stephens?A. To question the opinion about pocket moneyB. To compare Stephens with other financial expertsC. To explain that parents should be strict when developing children"s good habits about moneyD. To suggest that pocket money is useless in developing a child"s sense of responsibility5. The author implies in the passage that ______.A. paying children for their housework is no goodB. a child"s initiative can be developed if he or she is paid for all the houseworkC. children may feel lost and lonely if they have no pocket moneyD. children may learn to put aside some money if they are given a great amount of pocket money Nowadays, a cellphone service is available to everyone, everywhere. Probably thousands of people have already been using it, but I just discovered it, so I"m going to claim it and also name it: Fake Foning.The technology has been working well for me at the office, but there are infinite applications. In fact in any public space.Say you work at a big university with lots of talky faculty members buzzing about. Now, say you need to use the restroom. The trip down the hall will take approximately one hour, because a person can"t walk into those talky people without getting pulled aside for a question, a bit ofgossip, a new read on a certain line ofParadise Lost.So, a cellphone. Any cellphone. Just pick it up. Don"t dial. Just hold that phone to your face and start talking. Walk confidently down the hall engaged in fake conversation, making sure to tailor both the topic and content to the person standing before you whom you are trying to evade.For standard colleague avoidance, I suggest fake chatting about fake business: "Yes, I"m m glad you called, because we really need to think about the details. What"s that? Yes, I read Page 12, but if you look at the bottom of 4, I think you can see the problem begins right there."Be animated. Be engaged in your fake fone conversation. Make eye contact with the people passing, nod to them, gesture keen interest in talking to them at a later time, point to your phone, shrug and move on.Shoppers should consider fake foning anytime they spot a talky neighbor in the produce department pinching unripe peaches. Without your phone at your face, you"d be in for a 20-minute speech on how terrible the world is.One important caution about fake foning. The other day I was fake foning my way past a colleague, and he was actually following me to get my attention. I knew he wanted to ask about a project I had not yet finished. I was trying to buy myself some time, so I continued lake foning with my doctor. "So I don"t need the operation? Oh, doctor, that is the best news."And then: Brrrrrmg! Brrrrrmg! Brrrrrmg! My phone started ringing, right there while it was planted on my face. My colleague looked at me, and I at him, and naturally I gasped. "What is the matter with this thing? said, pulling the phone away to look at it, and then putting it back to my ear."Hello? Are you still there?"Oops.6. Which of the following statements is INCORRECT?A. Cellphone service is popular among peopleB. Cellphone has much use in officeC. Fake foning is a new cellphone serviceD. Fake foning is a new discovery7. What is fake foning?A. A strategy to avoid peopleB. A device newly producedC. A service provided everywhereD. A skill of communication8. In the author"s opinion, in order to make fake foning look real one has to ______.A. talk about interesting mattersB. behave politely to people passing byC. hold the phone while walkingD. appear absorbed in conversation9. What does the last example show?A. One effective way is to fake fone one"s doctorB. One has to be careful while fake foningC. Fake foning may not deceive peopleD. Fake foning is always quite successful10. After his phone suddenly began ringing, the author ______.A. immediately started talking to the callerB. immediately started talking to his colleagueC. put the phone away and stopped talkingD. continued with his fake conversationWill there ever be another Einstein? This is the undercurrent of conversation at Einstein memorial meetings throughout the year. A new Einstein will emerge, scientists say. But it may take a long time. After all, more than 200 years separated Einstein from his nearest rival, Isaac Newton. Many physicists say the next Einstein hasn"t been born yet, or is a baby now. That"s because the quest for a unified theory that would account for all the forces of nature has pushed current mathematics to its limits. New math must be created before the problem can be solved.But researchers say there are many other factors working against another Einstein emerging anytime soon.For one thing, physics is a much different field today. In Einstein"s day, there were only a few thousand physicists worldwide, and the theoreticians who could intellectually rival Einstein probably would fit into a streetcar with seats to spare.Education is different, too. One crucial aspect of Einstein"s training that is overlooked is the years of philosophy he read as a teenager—Kant, Schopenhauer and Spinoza, among others. It taught him how to think independently and abstractly about space and time, and it wasn"t long before he became a philosopher himself.The independence created by philosophical insight is—in my opinion—the mark of distinction between a mere artisan or specialist and a real seeker after truth, Einstein wrote in 1944.And he was an accomplished musician. The interplay between music and math is well known. Einstein would furiously play his violin as a way to think through a knotty physics problem. Today, universities have produced millions of physicists. There aren"t many jobs in science for them, so they go to Wall Street and Silicon Valley to apply their analytical skills to more practical—and rewarding—efforts."Maybe there is an Einstein out there today," said Columbia University physicist Brian Greene, "butit would be a lot harder for him to be heard".Especially considering what Einstein was proposing."The actual fabric of space and time curving? My God, what an idea!" Greene said at a recent gathering at the Aspen Institute. "It takes a certain type of person who will bang his head against the wall because you believe you"ll find the solution."Perhaps the best examples are the five scientific papers Einstein wrote in his "miracle year" of 1905. These "thought experiments" were pages of calculations signed and submitted to the prestigious journal Annalen der Physic by a virtual unknown. There were no footnotes or citations. What might happen to such a submission today?"We all get papers like those in the mail," Greene said. "We put them in the junk file."11. What do scientists seem to agree upon, judging from the first two paragraphs?A. Einstein pushed mathematics almost to its limitsB. It will take another Einstein to build a unified theoryC. No physicist is likely to surpass Einstein in the next 200 yearsD. It will be some time before a new Einstein emerges12. What was critical to Einstein"s success?A. His talent as an accomplished musicianB. His independent and abstract thinkingC. His untiring effort to fulfill his potentialD. His solid foundation in math theory13. What does the author tell us about physicists today?A. They tend to neglect training in analytical skillsB. They are very good at solving practical problemsC. They attach great importance to publishing academic papersD. They often go into fields yielding greater financial benefits14. What does Brian Greene imply by saying "... it would be a lot harder for him to be heard" (Para. 9)?A. People have to compete in order to get their papers publishedB. It is hard for a scientist to have his papers published todayC. Papers like Einstein"s would unlikely get published todayD. Nobody will read papers on apparently ridiculous theories15. When he submitted his papers in 1905, Einstein ______.A. forgot to make footnotes and citationsB. was little known in academic circlesC. was known as a young genius in math calculationsD. knew nothing about the format of academic papersI remember meeting him one evening with his pushcart. I had managed to sell all my papers and **ing home in the snow. It was that strange hour in downtown New York when the workers were pouring homeward in the twilight. I marched among thousands of tired men and women whom the factory whistles hadunyoked. They flowed in rivers through the clothing factory districts, then down along the avenues to the East Side.I met my father near Cooper Union. I recognized him, a hunched, frozen figure in an old overcoat standing by a banana cart. He looked so lonely; the tears came to my eyes. Then he saw me, and his face lit with his sad, beautiful smile—Charlie Chaplin s smile."Arch, it"s Mikey," he said. "So you have sold your papers! Come and eat a banana."He offered me one. I refused it. I felt it crucial that my father sell his bananas, not give them away. He thought I was shy, and coaxed and joked with me, and made me eat the banana. It smelled of wet straw and snow."You haven"t sold many bananas today, pop," I said anxiously.He shrugged his shoulders."What can I do? No one seems to want them."It was true. The work crowds pushed home morosely over the pavements. The rusty sky darkened over New York building, the tall street lamps were lit, innumerable trucks, street cars and elevated trains clattered by. Nobody and nothing in the great city stopped for my father"s bananas."I ought to yell," said my father dolefully "I ought to make a big noise like other peddlers, but it makes my throat sore. Anyway, I"m ashamed of yelling, it makes me feel like a fool."I had eaten one of his bananas. My sick conscience told me that I ought to pay for it somehow. I must remain here and help my father."I"ll yell for you, pop" I volunteered."Arch, no" he said, "go home; you have worked enough today. Just tell momma I"ll be late."But I yelled and yelled. My father, standing by, spoke occasional words of praise, and said I was awonderful yeller. Nobody else paid attention. The workers drifted past us wearily, endlessly; a defeated army wrapped in dreams of home. Elevated trains crashed ; the Cooper Union clock burned above us; the sky grew black, the wind poured, the slush burned through our shoes. There were thousands of strange, silent figures pouring over the sidewalks in snow. None of them stopped to buy bananas. I yelled and yelled. Nobody listened.My father tried to stop me at last. "Nu," he said smiling to console me, "that was wonderful yelling, Mikey. But it"s plain we are unlucky today! Let"s go home."I was frantic, and almost in tears. I insisted on keeping up my desperate yells. But at last my father persuaded me to leave with him.16. The word "unyoked" in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to ______.A. sent outB. releasedC. dispatchedD. removed17. Which of the following in the first paragraph does NOT indicate crowds of people?A. Thousands ofB. FlowedC. PouringD. Unyoked18. Which of the following is intended to be a pair of contrast in the passage?A. Huge crowds and lonely individualsB. Weather conditions and street lampsC. Clattering trains and peddlers" yellsD. Moving crowds and street traffic19. Which of the following words is NOT suitable to describe the character of the son?A. CompassionateB. ResponsibleC. ShyD. Determined20. What is the theme of the story?A. The misery of the factory workersB. How to survive in a harsh environmentC. Generation gap between the father and the sonD. Love between the father and the sonThe Working Time Regulations (WTRs) introduced a new right to paid holidays for most workers. However, some workers were not covered when the WTRs came into force in October 1998. Since the regulations were amended, with effect from 1 August 2003, the majority of these workers have been entitled to paid holidays, and since 1 August 2004 the regulations have also applied to junior doctors.Workers who qualify are entitled to no fewer than four weeks of paid holiday a year, and public holidays (normally eight days in England and Wales) count towards this. However. workers and employers can agree longer holidays.For the first year of work, special accrual rules apply. For each month of employment, workers are entitled to one twelfth of the annual holiday. After the first year of employment, you can take your holiday entitlement at any time, with your employer"s approval.Before taking holidays, you must give your employer notice of at least twice the length of the holiday you want to take: for instance, to take a five-day holiday, you must give at least ten days" notice. If your employer does not want you to take that holiday, they can give you counter-notice equal to the holiday, for example, five days" notice not to take a five-day holiday.If the employer wants you to take holiday at a given time, e. g. when there is a shutdown at thesame time every year, they must give you notice of at least twice the length of the holiday. There is no right for the worker to take that holiday at a different time.Holiday cannot be carried over to the next year, unless your contract of employment allows this to happen. Nor can you be paid in lieu of your holiday. However, when you leave the job, you are entitled to receive payment for any outstanding holiday, provided your contract specifically allows for this.It may be that your contract gives you better rights, or your holiday rights might be specified in a collective agreement. Your union representative can advise you on this.Answer the following questions, using NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS AND/OR A NUMBER from the passage.21. In what year were the regulations extended to cover most of the workers who were originally excluded?22. What is the minimum annual paid holiday which workers are entitled to?23. During a worker"s first year of employment, what proportion of their annual holiday does a month"s work give?24. What can an employer give a worker to stop them taking holiday that they have requested?25. What is given as a possible reason for an employee having to take a holiday at a certain time?Part Ⅲ WritingWhile some people claim that a person"s essential qualities are inherited at birth, others hold that the circumstances in which a person grows up are mainly responsible for the type of person he/ she later becomes. What do you think of this? Write an essay of about 400 words on the following topic:1. Essential Qualities: Inherited or Not?In the first part of your essay you should state clearly your main argument, and in the second part you should support your argument with appropriate details.
