翻译基础
首先词汇翻译，考了两个去年考过的：桂冠诗人、室内设计，还有就是孕妇装、付费电视、露天市场、读者文摘
英译汉：Vatican City，Union Jack，string quartet,X-rate,spaghetti,
英译汉：是关于modenity，self,self-realization,self-exploration,aesthetics,中间举例子有马克思、尼采、韦伯等人的思想，最后回归到了double consciousness（这是翻译硕士英语中排序题的主题词应该是选自同一篇文章），最后讲到modernity不再局限于西方，而是扩展到所有追求现代的人，是给所有人的poisoned gift。总体不难翻译。篇章大意也较容易理解，但是中间有两三个生词拦路虎，有点不好处理。
汉译英：讲的是禅宗和绘画之间的关系，其中论述了“胸中有丘壑”与绘画之间的关系，其中还讲了庄子的思想等等。暂且能想起来。
翻译硕士英语
首先是完形填空，难度一般，想全对也着实不易。文章出处：

Our brains are superlatively evolved to adapt to our environment:a process known as neuroplasticity.The connections between our brain cells will be shaped, strengthened and refined by our individual experiences.It is this personalisation of the physical brain,driven by unique interactions with the external world,that arguably constitutes the biological basis of each mind,so what will happen to that mind if the external world changes in unprecedented ways,for example,with an
all-pervasive digital technology?
A recent survey in the US showed that more than half of teenagers aged13to17 spend more than30hours a week,outside school,using computers and other web-connected devices.If their environment is being transformed for so much of the time into a fast-paced and highly interactive two-dimensional space,the brain
will adapt,for good or ill.Professor Michael Merzenich,of the University of California,San Francisco,gives a typical neuroscientific perspective.
''There is a massive and unprecedented difference in how[digital natives']brains are plastically engaged in life compared with those of average individuals from earlier generations and there is little question that the operational characteristics of the average modern brain substantially differ,''he says.
The implications of such a sweeping''mind change''must surely extend into education policy.Most obviously,time spent in front of a screen is time not spent doing other things.Several studies have already documented a link between the recreational use of computers and a decline in school performance.Perhaps most important of all,we need to understand the full impact of cyber culture on the emotional and cognitive profile of the21st-century mind.

Inevitably,there is a variety of issues.Let us look at just three.
First,social networking.Eye contact is a pivotal and sophisticated component of human interaction,as is subconscious monitoring of body language and,most powerful of all,physical contact,yet none of these experiences is available on social networking sites.It follows that if a young brain with the evolutionary mandate to adapt to the environment is establishing relationships through the medium of a screen,the skills essential for empathy may not be acquired as naturally as in the past.
