2001年9月考题By the middle of this century, some two thirds of the worlds nation, with at least five billion people, will enjoy a standard of living, which only the advanced economies now have. Some three billion of these people will live in Asia. Collectively, the Asian Countries will have a larger economy than the rest of the world put togethe匸The rest of the world will have to react to this millennial economic shift to Asia, and to the rising power of China. The rest of the world will be divided between the Euro-American countries, and the two big peripheral powers, Japan and Russia. Russia is a huge geographical country, with well educated people, and will eventually recover.In terms of nations, it will be a world of much greater economic equality. Although there will still be poor countries, most will be quite rich. Inside these nations there will be mass prosperity, but with a large minority in serious poverty, and a small number who are very rich.2002年3月考题Foundations are tax-free institutions that are created to give grants to both individuals and nonprofit organizations for activities that range from education, research, and the arts to support for the poor and the upkeep of exotic gardens and old mansions. They provide a means by which wealthy people and corporations can in effect decide how their tax payments will be spent, for they are based on money that otherwise would go to the government in taxes. From a small beginning at the turn of the century they have become a very important factor in shaping developments in higher education and the arts.Think tanks and university research institutes are nonprofit organizations that have been developed to provide settings for experts in various academic disciplines- In this way, they may devote their time to the study of policy alternatives free from the teaching and departmental duties that are part of the daily routine for most members of the academic community. Supported by foundation grants and government contracts, they are a majorsource of the new ideas that are discussed in the policy・formation groups.2006年3月英语中级口译真题As a scourge of the modern society, obesity has become the world's biggest public-health issue today—the main cause of heart disease, which kills more people these days than AIDS, malaria, war. Si nce the World Health Organization labeled obesity an "epidemic” in 2000, reports on its fearful consequences have come thick and Fast.Will public-health warnings, combined with media pressure, persuade people to get thinner, just as they finally put them off tobacco? Possibly. In the rich world, sales of healthier foods are booming and new figures suggest that over the past year Americans got very slightly thinner for the first time in recorded history. But even if Americans are losing a few ounces, it will be many years before the country solves the health problems caused by half a century's dining to excess. And, everywhere else in the world, people are still piling on the pounds. That's why there is now a consensus among doctors that governments should do something to stop them.2008年3月英语中级口译真题Imagine you have two candidates for a job. Their CVs are equally good, and they both give good interview. You cannot help noticing, though, that one is pug-ugly and the other is handsome. Are you swayed by their appearance?If you were swayed by someone's looks, would that be wrong? In the past, people often equated beauty with virtue and ugliness with vice.Even now, the expression "as ugly as sin" has not quite passed from the language. There is, of course, the equally famous expression u beauty is in the eye of the beholderto counter it. Most beholders agree what is beautiful-and modern biology suggests there is a good reason for that agreement. Biology also suggests that beauty may, indeed, be a good rule of thumb for assessing someone of either sex. Not an infallible one, andcertainly no substitute for an in-depth investigation. But, nevertheless, an instinctive one, and one that is bound to contribute to the advantage of the physically well endowed.2008年9月英语中级口译真题In a slowing US economy, job opportunities are shaped by uncertainty. As president of a small college, I am keenly aware of the job market that awaits this yearns graduates. The recent news that Bear Stearns was nullifying a few hundred job offers to business school students fits a pattern of corporate downsizing that isrft lost on college campuses across the USA. But even with the darkening economic clouds, rays of good news await this yearns graduates. Sure, companies are laying off workers, but many are also looking for new talent, especially at the entry level.As more than a million entrants flood the job market, students should know that in a global marketplace, language skills will go a long way. So will flexibility. If a grad is ready to accept an entry-level job, give a little on job requirements and move if the company asks, chances are he'll land a job. So despite the rising job losses, a new graduate should embrace the market as the first challenge of a long career.2000年3月英语中级口译真题Information and communications are central to modern society and organizations. One approach to understand the working environment is to consider an organization as a communications system. An organization that has open lines of communication with valid, honest information going up, down, and throughout the organization will be much more effective and a much better place to work than the organization that attempts to restrict the flow of information or distort and deceive. When leadership attempts to keep workers in the dark, workers tend to become distrustful. This undermines their cooperation.It is easy to understand the value and importance of open, honest communications and valid information. Yet, few organizations are able to function in this manner. In the longrun, poor communication will undermine the entire organization. Restricting communication and distorting information are symptoms of short-range thinking. We must avoid these stupid, short-sighted traps and constantly strive for and open communications system with objective information.参考答案：信息和交流对现代社会和机构是非常重要的。

中级口译第二部分口试-8(总分：20.00，做题时间：90分钟)一、Part A(总题数：0，分数：0.00)二、Passage 1(总题数：1，分数：5.00)1.（分数：5.00）__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案：(成功的知识经济要求政府在教育、基础设施及研究与开发领域里投入巨资。
有些国家愿意在研究开发方面投资，也有些国家不愿意这么做。
对国家或公司来说，技术上的领先地位与研究开发的投入是两码事。
欧洲在研究方面也有相当的投入，但反观其在技术上的排位，这种花费似乎没有产生应有的效果。
显而易见，要使投入产生效益，就必须继研究之后开展必要的、使新开发的技术应用于经济的活动。
)解析：[听力原文]A successful knowledge-based economy requires large public investments in education, infrastructure, and research and development.Some countries are willing to invest in research and development; others are not. For countries or companies technological leadership is not the same thing as R&D spending.Europe spends its share on research, but if one looks at technological leadership, that spending does not seem to be paying off.To pay off, obviously, research has to be followed by the activities necessary to embed the newly developed technologies in the economy.三、Passage 2(总题数：1，分数：5.00)2.（分数：5.00）__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案：(来自中国肉类产品协会的女士们、先生们，下午好。
A. 总统先生，我们很荣幸能有此机会和您交谈，您的中国之行已近半程。
我想您对今天的中国有了更清晰的认识。
在您的印象中中国是不是和从前不一样了呢？(Mr. President, we are very honored to have this opportunity to talk to you now that your trip in China is almost halfway. And I guess you have gained a clearer picture of today’s Chi na. Is the China in your impression now different from what you knew before?)B. Oh, yes.(是的)A. 那最令人难忘的变化是什么呢？（and what’s the most impressive difference?）B. Well, China’s still the most populous country in the world, but I think one is immediately stru ck by the dramatic economic growth and by the opening of China to the rest of the world. I also believe that there is a genuine increase in people’s control over their own lives. Incomes are going up, people have more choices in education, more choice in jobs, the freedom to travel. The state-run industries are going down in relative importance and cooperatives and private businesses are coming up. So I think there is a genuine movement forward openness and freedom in China. (中国仍然是世界上人口最多的国家，但我想中国经济的迅速发展，中国对外开放的强大力度会迅速打动每一个人。
