2015年12月英语六级翻译、作文预测、常用词汇总结中国市场经济的发展而迅速增长。

因此，那些追求物质生活的人们只要有购买力，就不可避免地会购买奢侈品。

一项报告显示，中国的奢侈品消费总额占全球市场份额的四分之一，且位居世界第二，仅次于日本。

然而，从消费观念方面来讲，很多中国的消费者还处在“炫耀性消费”的阶段，这是一种不健康的状态。

奢侈品不应该是炫耀的手段，或者是与权力、财富和社会关系相关的标志。

As China has achieved new heights in its economy and recently entered an era of mass consumption, the purchasing power of Chinese people is rising along with the development of market economy. Therefore, it is inevitable that people who pursue material life buy luxuries as long as they can afford. According to a report, the total consumption of luxuries in China accounted for a quarter of the global market share and ranked second in the world after Japan. However, in regard to consumption concept, a large number of Chinese consumers are still in the stage of “conspicuous consumption”, which is unhealthy. Luxuries should not be the tools of showing off or signs associated with power, wealth and social ties.《红楼梦》由曹雪芹和高鹗所著。

之后的《好男儿》、《快乐男声》、《我型我秀》还有《中国好声音》等等选秀活动一一登场，几乎一刻都没有让中国的.电视观众闲着。

通过这些选秀活动，很多有才能的“平民百姓”实现了自己的梦想，走上了星光大道(avenue of stars)。

12月英语六级翻译试题库（含答案）孔庙(Temple ofConfucius)坐落于山东省曲阜市南门内，是纪念我国伟大思想家、教育家孔子的祠庙建筑(templebuilding)，也是一组具有东方风格的大型建筑群。

由于孔子创立的儒家思想(Confucianism)对于维护社会统治安定所起到的重要作用，孔庙便被古代帝王所器重。

在古代经常举办祭孔典礼，或者是由皇帝自己，或者是由皇帝委任的髙级官员。

祭孔的规模和祭天一样宏大。

由此，孔子在历史上的重要地位便可见一斑。

12月英语六级考试翻译原文及解析2015年12月英语六级考试翻译原文及解析第一篇：杭州是浙江省的省会城市的政治、经济和文化中心。

杭州历史悠久，是中国著名的七大古都之一。

杭州也是著名的旅游城市，被誉为人间天堂(paradise)，意大利旅行家马可?波罗(Macro Polo)曾称赞它为“世界上最美丽华贵之城”。

位于市中心的西湖景区以其秀丽的湖光山色和众多的历史遗迹闻名中外。

杭州特产众多，其中以丝绸和茶叶最受欢迎。

1.第1句“杭州是......，是......”如依照原文采用并列结构表达为Hangzhou is the capital city of Zhejiang Province,and is...，则稍显平淡，不如将“是浙江省得省会城市”处理成“杭州”的同位语来得简洁和有层次感，译为Hangzhou,the capital city of Zhejiang Province, is...定语“政治、经济和文化”可用介词短语 of politics, economy and culture来表达。

2.第2句“杭州历史悠久，是中国著名的……之一”可用并列结构译为Hangzhouhas a long history and isone of...，但结构较松散，不如将前半句处理为状语，用介词短语With a long history来表达，使译文更有逻辑性、结构更紧凑。

3.第4句中的“位于市中心的”可处理为地点状语，用分词短语locatedin the center of the city来译出。

“以其秀丽的湖光山色和众多的历史遗迹闻名中外”可套用be world-famous for...(以......闻名世界)的结构来表达。

“众多的”可用many或numerous来表达。

4.最后一句的主干为“杭州特产众多”，可将其作为主句，其中“特产众多”意即“有众多特产”，因此翻译为Hangzhou boasts numerous speciallocal products。

翻译原文：目前，我国大中型城市中，出台“公共场所禁止吸烟”规定的城市占45.7%。

从不少制定禁止吸烟法规的城市实践来看，效果并不明显，大有“禁而难止”的迹象。

有相当多的吸烟者视法规而不顾，面对着公共场所“请勿吸烟”、“禁止吸烟”的标示依然我行我素、吞云吐雾。

当生存压力日益加大，如何在纷繁复杂的情况下实现“无烟环境”是我们每个人值得思索的问题。

“全民禁烟”不仅是一场持久战(a protractedcampaign),更是一场人民保卫健康的战争，需要全民携手共同战斗。

参考译文：At present,the large and medium-sized cities inChina that issue regulations to prohibit smoking inpublic account for45.7percent.From the experienceof some cities,we can see the effect is not obviousand there is even a trend that prohibition cannotstop smokers.Many smokers are indifferent to regulations of prohibiting smoking and theycontinue to smoke facing the sign of“no smoking”.As living pressure increases,it is worththinking how to create an environment with no smoking in such a complex situation.Thenationwide“smoke-free”activity is not only a protracted campaign,,but also a fight to protectpeople's health.Thus,all people need to work together to fight against smoking.最后，文都图书提醒备考的小伙伴们，一定要坚持每天进步一点点，对于大学英语六级级翻译部分来讲，日积月累也是制胜的关键之一，除此之外，真题还是最主要的。

Micro blog users might be at the scene of incidents,which makes individuals ___________________（成为潜在强有力的信息源）.答案解析:1. 答案:couldn't have made/achieved a breakthrough in painting详解:考查虚拟语气：虚拟条件句的从句中含有were,had,should,could等词时，可以省略连接词if，但必须把上面提到的这些词移至主语前面，形成倒装。

这种句型主要用于书面形式。

表示与过去的情况相反的假设时，主句谓语用would/could/might+have+过去分词，从句谓语用过去完成时。

本句中从句谓语过去完成时Had it not been,所以主句使用could have daon 与之呼应。

考查固定搭配:在。

2015年12月 六级 第2套 范文，原文，解析，译文Part I Writing 范文：Directions:For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay based on the picturebelow. You should focus on the harm caused by misleading information online. You are required to write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.“I just feel unfortunate to live in a world with so much misleading information!”It is shown in the picture that a man is expressing his concern about misleading information online, saying “I just feel uncomfortable to live in a world with so much misleading information!” Indeed, with the advent of information era, misleading information finds its way onto the Internet, which has caused great harm to the society.As the world advances triumphantly into the information age, what people did not anticipate is that the Internet, a tool deemed by many as the greatest invention ever, provides notorious assistance for misleading information. A college student who died recently may well serve as a good example. The student was suffering from a severe illness, for which he should have sought the help of professional doctors. However, not aware of the nature of the information online, he logged in to search for help, and ended up finding an illegal hospital, where he died of medical negligence .It is crystal clear that the Internet, with so much misleading information, is not a safe tool we should rely on. And measures should be taken to put this situation under control. Part Ⅱ Listening Section AConversation OneM: Hello, Jane.W: Hello, Paul.M: Please come in. I'm just getting ready to go home. Susan is expecting me for dinner. I wanted to be on time for a change.W: Look, I'm terribly sorry to drop in at this time on Friday, Paul, but it is rather important.M: That's OK. What's the problem?W: Well, Paul, I won't keep you long. You see there is a problem with the exchange rates. The Indian Rupee has taken a fall on the foreign exchange market. You see there has been a sharp increase in Indian's balance of payment deficit.M: I see. That's serious, isn't it?W: Well, as you know, there have been reports of unrest India, and the prospects for the Rupee look pretty gloomy.M: And that's going to affect us, as if we didn't have enough problems on our hands.W: So I thought it would be wise to take out forward exchange cover to protect our position on the outstanding contracts.M: Just a minute. Forward exchange cover? Now what does that mean exactly?W: Well, it means that JO Motors enters into a commitment to sell Indian Rupees at the present rate.M: I see. And how will that benefit us?W: Well, JO Motors won't lose out if the Indian Rupee falls further.M: What will it cost, Jane?W: A small percentage, about 1% and that can be built into the price of the bike.M: Well, I don't suppose there is much choice. All right, Jane, let's put it into action.Questions 1 to 3 are based on the conversation you have just heard.Question 1. What do we learn about the man's daily life?Question 2. Why did the woman come to see the man?Question 3. What makes the woman worry about the Indian Rupee?Conversation TwoW: Charles, among other things, you are regarded as one of the America's great masters of the Blues- a musical idiom does essentially about loss, particularly the loss of romantic love. Why does love die?M: People often get into love affairs because they have unrealistic expectations about somebody. Then when the person doesn't turn out to be who they thought he or she was, they start thinking “maybe I can change him or her.” That kind of thinking is a mistake. Because when the dust settles, people are going to be pretty much what they are. It's a rare thing for anybody to be able to change who they really are. And this creates a lot of problems.W: At 62, you continue to spend a large percentage of your life touring. What appeals to you about life on the road?M: Music. I don't especially love life on the road. But I figure if you are lucky enough to be able to do what you truly love doing, you've got the ultimate in life.W: What's the most widely-held misconception about the life of a famous musician?M: People think it's all glamour. Actually we have the same trouble as they do. Playing music doesn't mean life treats you any better.W: How do you feel about being recognized everywhere you go?M: You'd think I'd be used to it by now. But I still find it fascinating. You go to a little town in Japan, where nobody speaks English, yet they know you on site and know all your music. I'm still amazed by the love people express for me and by music.Questions 5 to 8 are based on the conversation you have just heard.Question 5. What does the man say about most people when they get into love affairs?Question 6. What does the man say about himself as a singer on the road most of his life?Question 7. What do most people think of the life of a famous musician?Question 8. How does the man feel whenever he is recognized by his fans?Section BPassage OneChanging technology and markets have stimulated the team approach to management. Inflation, resource scarcity, reduced personnel levels and budget cuts have all underscore the need for better coordination in organizations. Team management provides for this coordination. Team management calls for new skills if personnel potential is to be fully realized. Although a team may be composed of knowledgeable people, they must learn new ways of relating and working together to solve cross-functional problems. When teams consist of experienced employees from hierarchical organizations who have been conditioned to traditional organizational culture, cooperation may not occur naturally. It may need to be created. Furthermore, the issue is not just how the team can function more effectively, but how it integrates with the overall organization or society that it supposedly serves. A group of individuals is not automatically a team. Therefore, team building may be necessary in order to improve the group's performance. Casey, an expert in this field, suggests that the cooperation process within teams must be organized, promoted and managed. He believes that team corporation results when members go beyond their individual capabilities, beyond what each is used to being and doing. Together, the team may then produce something new, unique and superior to that of any one member. For this to happen, he suggests the multi-cultural managers exhibit understanding of their own and other's cultural influences and limitations. They should also cultivate such skills as toleration of ambiguity, persistence and patience, as well as assertedness. If a team manager exemplifies such qualities, then the team as a whole would be better able to realize their potential and achieve their objectives.Questions 9 to 11 are based on the passage you have just heard.Question 9. What should team members do to fully realize their potential?Question 10. What needs to be considered for effective team management?Question 11. What conclusion can we draw from what Casey says?Passage TwoAdvertising informs consumers about the existence and benefits of products and services and attempts to persuade them to buy them.The best form of advertising is probably word-of-mouth advertising which occurs when people tell their friends about the benefits of products or services that they have purchased. Yet virtually no providers of goods or services rely on this alone, but use paid advertising instead. Indeed many organizations also use institutional or prestige advertising which is designed to build up their reputation rather than to sell particular products. Although large companies could easily set up their own advertising departments, write their own advertisements and buy media space themselves, they tend to use the services of large advertising agencies. These are likely to have more resources and more knowledge about all aspects of advertising and advertising media than a single company. It is also easier for a dissatisfied company to give its account to another agency than it would be to fire its own advertising staff. The client company generally gives the advertising agency an agreed budget, a statement of the objectives of the advertising campaign, known as a brief and an overall advertising strategy concerning the message to be communicated to the target customers. The agency creates advertisements and develops a media plan, specifying which media will be used and in which proportions. Agencies often produce alternative ads or commercials that are pre-tested in newspapers, television stations, etc. , in different parts of the country before a final choice is made prior to a national campaign.Questions 12 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard.Question 12. What is probably the best form of advertising according to the speaker?Question 13. What does the speaker say is the purpose of many organizations' using prestige advertising? Question 14. How do large companies generally handle their advertising?Question 15. What would advertising agencies often do before a national campaign?Section CRecording 1Hi, today we are gonna talk about blood donations. There is a great need for blood donations around the world, and you can be the means of saving lives. According to the American Red Cross, over 40,000 blood donations are needed every single day in the United States alone, and without the help of volunteers like you, it is impossible to fill this need. About 9.2 million people donate every year in the US, and although approximately 38% of the population is eligible to donate, less than 10% of them actually do.There are four types of transfusable products that can be derived from blood: red cells, platelets, plasma and cryoprecipitate. Typically, two or three of these are produced from a pint of donated whole blood — hence each donation can help save up to three lives.Donors can give either whole blood or specific blood components only. The process of donating specific blood components — red cells, plasma or platelets — is called apheresis. One transfusion dose of platelets can be obtained through one apheresis donation of platelets or by combining the platelets derived from five whole blood donations.Most donated red blood cells must be used within 42 days of collection. Donated platelets must be used within five days of collection — new donations are constantly needed. Plasma and cryoprecipitate are stored in frozen state and can be used for up to one year after collection. Healthy bone marrow makes a constant supply of red cells, plasma and platelets. The body will replenish the elements given during a blood donation — some in a matter of hours and others in a matter of weeks.Sometimes people don’t donate out of fear, but the process is relatively simple following a four-step process: registering, getting your medical history checked, donating, and having some refreshments, like food and drink that you are given right after you donate to replenish your fluids and energy. And once you donate, you have the ability to donate red blood cells every 56 days. So, carefully consider becoming a donor. The number one reason donors say they give blood is because they “want to help others.” And it is true that you can save lives.Questions 16 to 18 are based on the recording you have just heard.Q16. How many blood donations are needed every day in the United States?Q17. According to the speaker, why don’t some people donate blood?Q18. How often can people donate blood?Recording 2Premature babies have more than their share of health problems early in life and now a new study finds they also face an increased risk of premature death well into adulthood.Premature babies are more common now than they were a few decades ago in the United States and many other countries, and medical advances mean that even very premature babies are more likely to survive. But does early birth have an impact on health when those babies grow up?To find out, Stanford University researcher Dr. Casey Crump and his colleagues used a database of 670,000 people born in Sweden in the 1970s. “We found that people who were born preterm had a higher risk of dying in young adulthood than those who were born full-term,” Crump says, “And that risk of mortality increased the earlier in pregnancy that one was born.” Even a baby born just a couple of weeks early had an increased risk of death decades later.That premature babies have a higher death rate in the first years of life is not surprising, but Crump says it had been thought that the risk decreased as the child got older. Crump says, “We found that that was true, at least in late childhood and adolescence. However, in young adulthood, an increased risk of mortality reemerged. And that was due to various causes, including respiratory and endocrine and heart disease — conditions that may have cumulative health effects that don’t manifest until young adulthood.”A few years ago, a study published by the World Health Organization estimated that, globally, 10 percent of babies were born prematurely. Crump says the findings of his study underscore the need to reduce the number of preterm births. He says, “It’s extremely important for pregnant women to have regular prenatal care to reduce their risk of delivering preterm. And also, for survivors of preterm births, they should avoid other risk factors for disease, like smoking or obesity, in order to offset the increased risk that we found.” Questions 19 to 22 are based on the recording you have just heard.Q19. What has a new study found about premature babies in adulthood?Q20. Who used the database of Sweden people in their research?Q21. According to the speaker , what fact is not surprising about premature babies?Q22. What does the speaker suggest survivors of premature births do to live longer?Recording 3Every year, Auburn University sends a new outstanding pool of graduates into society. Many of these alums become some of the brightest and blessed employees — senior executives, business owners, entrepreneurs, leaders in their fields. One such alumnus is with us today as our commencement speaker.Tim Cook graduated from Auburn in 1982 with a degree of Industrial Engineering.

I would say you’ve made good decisions, Mr. Cook.He not only motivates and inspires his fellow employees, but he’s been known to show his Auburn pride and spirit around Apple headquarters. Mr. Cook has sat where you are sitting today. He knows the importance of a good education. And he believes in giving back to his Alma mater so that future students can also fulfill their dreams. Please welcome with me Auburn’s honored alumnus — Tim Cook.Thank you for that nice reception and thank you Virginia for the incredible introduction. I thought some of them were about somebody else. It’s a tremendous honor and a privilege for me to be here with all of you, tobe back to a place that really feels like home to me and to be back to a place that brings back so many fond memories. Auburn has played a key role in my life and continues to mean a lot to me as anyone who comes in my office at Apple or my home in Palo Alto instantly discovers…Questions 23 to 25 are based on the recording you have just heard.Q23. Who will be the commencement speaker today?Q24. What can be learned about the commencement speaker?Q25. What did Mr. Cook say about Auburn University?
