2019年英语翻译中级笔译：汉译英难点解析8

2019年英语专八作文真题解析Here's an analysis of the 2019 TEM-8 writing prompt in an informal and varied English style, adhering to the requirements mentioned:Paragraph 1: Personal Reflection.Looking back at the year, I realize how much I've grown as a language learner. The journey hasn't been easy, but every struggle has been a stepping stone to my success. From those early morning vocabulary sessions to late-night grammar reviews, I've learned the importance of consistency.Paragraph 2: Unexpected Challenges.One thing I didn't expect was how challenging listening comprehension could be. Even with all the practice, sometimes I still struggle to catch every word. But it's taught me to focus on the overall meaning rather thangetting hung up on details.Paragraph 3: The Power of Reading.Reading has been a game-changer for me. Not just for improving vocabulary and grammar, but for understanding different cultures and perspectives. Each book opens a new world and expands my horizons.Paragraph 4: The Joy of Speaking.There's nothing like the thrill of having a conversation in English with someone who doesn't speak your native language. The sense of accomplishment when you're able to express yourself clearly and understand their response is unbeatable.Paragraph 5: The Importance of Community.。

英语翻译考试笔译中级试题及答案英语翻译考试笔译中级试题及答案Reading is fun, not because the writer is telling you something, but because it makes your mind work. Your own imagination works along with the author’s or even goes beyond his. Your experience, compared with his, brings you to the same or different conclusions, and your ideas develop as you understand his.Every book stands by itself, like a one-family house, but books in a library are like houses in a city. Although they are separate, together they all add up to something; they are connected with each other and with other cities. The same ideas, or related ones, turn up in different places; the human problems that repeat themselves in life repeat themselves in literature, but with different solutions according to different writings at different times.Reading can only be fun if you expect it to be. If you concentrate on books somebody tells you “ought ” to read, you probably won’t have fun. But if you put down a book you don’t like and try another till you find one that means something to you, and then relax with it, you will almost certainly have a good time—and if you become as a result of reading, better, wiser, kinder, or more gentle, you won’t have suf fered during the process.参考译文：读书之所以有趣，不是由于作者告诉了你什么，而是由于书本促使你思考。

历年英语翻译考试中级笔译实务英译汉真题第一篇英译汉Farms go out of business for many reasons, but few farms do merely because the soil has failed. That is the miracle of farming. If you care for the soil, it will last — and yield — nearly forever. America is such a young country that we have barely tested that. For most of our history, there has been new land to farm, and we still farm as though there always will be.Still, there are some very old farms out there. The oldest is the Tuttle farm, near Dover, N.H., which is also one of the oldest business enterprises in America. It made the news last week because its owner — a lineal descendant of John Tuttle, the original settler — has decided to go out of business. It was founded in 1632. I hear its sweet corn is legendary.The year 1632 is unimaginably distant. In 1632, Galileo was still publishing, and John Locke was born. There were perhaps 10,000 colonists in all of America, only a few hundred of them in New Hampshire. The Tuttle acres, then, would have seemed almost as surrounded as they do in 2010, but by forest instead of highways and houses.It was a precarious operation at the start —as all farming was in the new colonies—and it became precarious enough again in these past few years to peter out at last. The land is protected by a conservation easement so it can’t be developed, but no one knows whether the next owner will farm it.In a letter on their Web site, the Tuttles cite “exhaustion of resources” as the reason to sell the farm. The exhausted resources they list include bodies, minds, hearts, imagination, equipment, machinery and finances. They do not mention soil, which has been renewed and redeemed repeatedly.It is too simple to say, as the Tuttles have, that the recession killed a farm that had survived for nearly 400 years. What killed it was the economic structure of food production. Each year it has become harder for family farms to compete with industrial scale agriculture —heavily subsidized by the government —underselling them at every turn. In a system committed to the health of farms and their integration with local communities, the result would have been different. In 1632, and for many years after, the Tuttle farm was a necessity. In 2010, it is suddenly superfluous, or so we like to pretend.尽管导致农民破产的原因有很多，但很少农民仅仅是因为土地失去肥力而破产，这可以算是一个农业奇迹。

2019年翻译资格考试中级笔译试题汉译英正文近年来，中国政府倡导国内旅游，推行“假日经济”政策，经公民每年3次为期一周的长假，让他们将更多储蓄用于旅游、购物和外出就餐。

2004年，五一节的总旅游消费达390亿人民币。

目前旅游业收占国内生产总值的 2.3%。

预计到2013年，旅游收将每年增长10%，并创造4，000万个就业机会。

中国在公路、火车站和机场方面投资巨大。

新航线和公交公司不断涌现，竞争降低了旅游成本。

京沪间单程机票售价为850-900元人民币，有时还会更低。

一些航线开展网上售票服务，方便人们购票。

更多私车和汽车租赁中介的出现让数百万人不仅能跟团旅游，还能自己开车出游。

[247]参考译文In recent years, the Chinese government has encouraged domestic travel and implemented a policy of “holiday economics”, giving its citizens three annual week-long vacations and the opportunity to spend more savings on travel, shopping and eating out. In 2004, total tourist spending during the May Day holidays was 39 billion yuan.Tourism now contributes 2.3 percent of the nation’s gross domestic product (GDP), and revenues are expected to grow by 10 percent annually through to 2013, creating 40 million jobs.China has spent heavily on building roads, railway stations and airports. New airlines and bus companies have emerged, and competition has cut the cost of travel. A one-way air ticket between Shanghai and Beijing costs 850-900 yuan, and cheaper prices are occasionally available. Some airlines have begun online ticketing services, making it even easier to take a holiday. More private cars and the emergence of car rental agencies have allowed millions of people to travel on their own, as well as in tour groups.汉译英正文中国为种类繁多的菜肴感到十分自豪。

2019年英语中级口译翻译真题(英译汉) Why We Must Fire Bad TeachersThe relative decline of American education at the elementary- and high-school levels has long been a national embarrassment as well as a threat to the nation’s future. Once upon a time, American students tested better than any other students in the world. Now, ranked against European schoolchildren, America does about as well as Lithuania, behind at least 10 other nations.For much of this time—roughly the last half century—professional educators believed that if they could only find the right pedagogy, the right method of instruction, all would be well. They tried New Math, open classrooms, Whole Language—but nothing seemed to achieve significant orlasting improvements.Yet in recent years researchers have discovered something that may seem obvious, but for many reasons was overlooked or denied. What really makes a difference, what matters more than the class size or the textbook, the teaching method or the technology, or even the curriculum, is the quality of the teacher. Much of the ability to teach is innate—an ability to inspire young minds as well as control unruly classrooms that some people instinctively possess (and some people definitely do not). Teaching can be taught, to some degree, but not the way many graduate schools of education do it, with a lot of insipid or marginally relevant theorizing and pedagogy. In any case the research shows thatwithin about five years, you can generally tell who is a good teacher and who is not.。

But it is a little upsetting to read in the explanatory notes that a certain line describes a fight between a Turkish and a Bulgarian officer on a bridge off which they both fall into the river--and then to find that the line consists of the noise of their falling and the weights of the officers, "Pluff!

复盘2019年北外MTI汉英翻译真题（下篇）近年来，北外在MTI考试中越来越重视对于中国传统⽂化、历史哲学和审美思想的考查，⽆论是先前的“天⼈合⼀”还是“孔⼦⽣平”，都需要同学们对这些“极为简约却⾼度概括”的词汇有清楚的认识，⽐如“天”、“仁”、“道”、“礼”、“德”等等概念，既要知道如何⽤⼀个句⼦充分概述其中的内涵，也要学会使⽤⼀个单词简要地指代对应概念。

2019年12⽉的北外MTI汉英翻译真题就是⼀个很好的例⼦，现在⽼师带⼤家全⾯复盘这篇当时令⽆数考⽣抓狂的⽂本，把原⽂掰开了揉碎了为⼤家分析清楚，并教会⼤家如何处理此类⽂本。

我们接着上期内容，来看朱熹和谭嗣同的部分：“朱熹同意程颐的说法，将仁看作“爱之理，⼼之德”，认为“爱是恻隐，恻隐是情，其理则谓之仁。

⼈之所以为⼈，其理则天地之理，其⽓则天地之⽓”。

1. ⾸先我们讨论“为⼈”和“⾮⼈”的问题，2015年的真题中也出现过“⽆是⾮之⼼，⾮⼈也”这样的句⼦。

许多同学（包括很多参考书）都将其翻译为non-human，这是值得商榷的：儒学讨论的“⾮⼈”并⾮是在强调物种意义上的界限，⽽是“⼈（或君⼦）作为具有精神与⽂明的动物，与寻常动物（或⼩⼈）有着本质的区别”，因此这⾥⽤civility, civilized, educated, well-mannered, well-behaved等强调精神素养（⽽⾮⽣物属性）类的词汇都是可以的。

2. 这句话的另⼀个难点在于处理“爱”、“情”、“理”、“⼼”和“德”这四个概念，可以说，这四个关键词都属于抽象层⾯的形⽽上概念，本⾝就⾮常虚⽆缥缈，还要两两安排修饰关系，难度很⼤。

不过同学们可以采⽤递进式的选词策略处理这⼀难题：3. 在“恻隐”这⼀概念有明确对应词sympathy的基础上，我们将“恻隐”上⾯⼀层的“爱”朝着感性的⽅向翻译，反之，将“恻隐”下层的“情”和“理”逐级朝着理性的⽅向翻译：to love is to sympathize, and sympathy belongs to emotion whose ultimate essence is ren.4. 其次是处理“天地”这样的传统⽂化词汇，⼤家只要挑出字⾯意思，不要机械地翻译成sky and earth这样具体特指之物就好，⽽应选择nature, universe等更具抽象意味的概念参考翻译Zhu Xi, another Confucian philosopher in the Song dynasty, agrees with Cheng Hao and, further, claims that ren is the li (principle) of benevolence and the essence of mental betterment (literally, heart). Zhu Xi thinks to love is to sympathize and sympathy belongs to emotion whose ultimate essence is ren. Human being is different from other creatures because we hold the same li and qi (literally air and breath, meaning spirit and vigor in Chinese) with that of the universe.译⽂备注1. universe的其中⼀个义项就是“a person's life, including all of the people, places, and ideas which affect them”。

英译汉Impacts of Climatic Changes on Livestock: A Canadian Perspective There are more than 90,000 livestock operations in Canada, which accounted for more than $17 billion in farm cash receipts in 20001.Despite the economic importance of livestock operations to Canada2, relatively few studies have examined how they could be impacted by climate change. 3Temperature is generally considered to be4 the most important bioclimatic factor for livestock. Warmer temperatures are expected to present both benefits and challenges to livestock operations. Benefits would be particularly evident during winter, when 5 warmer weather lowers feed requirements, increases survival of the young, and reduces energy costs. Challenges would increase during the summer, however, when heat waves can kill animals. For example, large numbers of chicken deaths are commonly reported in the United States during heat waves. 6 Heat stress also adversely affects milk production, meat quality and dairy cow reproduction. In addition, warmer summer temperatures have been shown to suppress appetites in livestock and hence reduce weight gain. For example, a study conducted in Appalachia found that a 5︒C increase in mean summer temperature7 caused a l0% decrease in cow, calf and dairy operations.Provided there is adequate moisture, warmer temperatures and elevated CO2 concentrations are generally expected to increase growth rates in grasslands and pastures. 8 It is estimated that a doubling of9 atmospheric CO2 would increasegrassland productivity by an average of 17%, with greater increases projected for colder regions and moisture-limited grassland systems. However, study results tend to vary greatly with location, and changes in species composition may affect the actual impacts10 on livestock grazing. For instance, studies have noted future climate changes, particularly extreme events, may promote the invasion of alien species into grasslands, which could reduce the nutritional quality of the grass.An increase in severe moisture deficits due to drought may require producers to reduce their stock of grazing cattle to preserve their land, as exemplified by the drought of 2001 when many Prairie producers had to cull their herds. For the 2002 season, it was predicted that many pastures would be unable to support any grazing, while others would be reduced to 20-300/o of normal herd capacity.There is relatively little literature available on the impacts of extreme climate events on livestock. Nevertheless, storms, blizzards and droughts are an important concern for livestock operations. In addition to the direct effects on animals, storms may result in power outages that can devastate farms that are heavily dependent upon electricity for daily operations. This was exemplified by" the 1998 ice storm in eastern Ontario and southern Quebec, when the lack of power left many dairy farms unable to use their milking machines. This threatened the health of the cows (due to potential mastitis) and caused significant revenue losses. Milk revenue was also lost through the inability to store the milk at the proper temperature.12 Furthermore, the lack of electricity made itdifficult to provide adequate barn ventilation and heating, thereby making the animals more susceptible to illness.词汇1.cash receipts现金收入2.bioclimatic factor生物气候因素3.heat wave/heat stress热浪4.C02 concentration二氧化碳浓度5.grassland/pasture/prairie草原，草地，草场6.grazing放牧7.cull拣选，剔除8.herd capacity放牧能力9.mastitis乳突炎10.revenue收入参考译文气候变化对家畜的影响——加拿大的视角加拿大有9万多家家畜企业，2000年现金收入超过170亿美元。

The overall result has been to make entrance to professional geological journals harder for a mateurs, a result that has been reinforced by the widespreadintroduction of refereeing, first by national journals in the 19th century and then by several local geological journals in the 20th century.[参考译文] 这样一来总的结果便是业余爱好者想在专业地质学期刊…卜发表文章就更难了，而被广泛使用的论文评审推荐制度又进一步强化了这个结果，该种制度先是出现在19世纪的刊物上，后又在20世纪被几家地方级地质学刊物所使用。
