Just like an umbrella keeps our bodies dry from rain, our hairy eyebrows keep our eyes dry from rain or sweat. When it’s pouring with rain o utside or when sweat runs down our foreheads, our eyebrows divert the flow of water or sweat away from our eyes. Our arch-shaped eyebrows angle the rain or sweat around to the sides of our faces, leaving our eyes fairly dry. By catching the water or sweat, our eyebrows not only allow us to see more clearly but also keep the salt in the sweat from burning or irritating our eyes.Eyebrows have other roles also. As one of our most expressive facial features, eyebrows help us determine how people are feeling without having to ask them. If a person’s eyebrows are drawn in a frown, the chances are that they are angry or upset.What is more, over the years, eyebrows have been having an increasing impact on our concepts of beauty or fashion. Big, thick, and hairy eyebrows tend to be considered unattractive, while thin, plucked eyebrows are said to be more attractive.三、耳听笔译A.

2012年3月高级口译听力Spot Dictation 原文+评析Psychologists have many theories to explain how we remember information. The most influential theory is that memory works as a kind of storage system for information. There are three types of these storage systems with different functions that hold information for different amounts of time. They are sensory memory, short-term memory and long-term memory. Sensory memory holds information for the shortest amount of time, less than for seconds and instant. Sensory memory is where stimuli or things that stimulate our senses are very briefly stored. We forget sensory memories almost instantly, unless they passed into another storage system. Examples of the stimuli are what we see and hear in the world, such as a flash of lightning or the sound of a door closing. Short-term memory also called working memory, holds information for about 15 to 20 seconds. This is not a very long time. But the information that passes into this system has more meaning for us than just sensory stimulation. Some experts believe that sensory information changes into visual images as it is stored. And others believe that information changes into words. There is not much room for information in short-term memory. And it did not stay there for very long. Examples of this types of information are telephone numbers, addresses and names. Long-term memory holds information almost indefinitely, although retrieving it can sometimes be difficult. Think of long-term memory as a very big library, with almost unlimited capacities for storage. Information gets filed, cataloged and stored. Long-term memory has several different components or categories. The main two categories are declarative memory and procedure memory. Declarative memory is where we store factual information, such as names, faces, dates, life events. Procedure memory is where we store memory of skills and habits , like how to ride a bike, or how to boil an egg. Within the declarative memory, there are smaller categories of memory, episodic memory and semantic memory. Episodic memory relates to our personal lives. Things we have done or experienced, such as having a car accident or graduating from school. Semantic memory is where we organize general knowledge or facts about the world, such as math formulas, spelling rules and capital cities.点评：这是一篇关于人类记忆分类的文章。

高级口译听力部分原文高级口译听力部分原文Let’s talk about the social condition that many people might be concerned about today. There are a few that I wanted to touch on, but the first one is the one I mentioned in the introduction-crime in New York city. Crime was a problem for a very long time in New York city and it was rising, and rising and rising. And then it started dropping. And I suppose there could be a number of different reasons for it, but I can’t really find that anybody really knows exactly for sure what caused it.Crime is such a fundamentally contagious thing that once we reach the kind of tipping point, and once certain influential people in communities hard-hit by crime, stop behaving in that way. It was contagious. And there was a kind of sea change that happens all at once. Maybe we can go into those little triggers, because I find it’s really interesting. Because we are talking about such a big change that takes place. Being triggered by very small things, and what do you think some of those were?Well, I’m very impressed by this idea called the “broken window theory”, which is an idea George Kelling has put forth in New England. He’s argued for some time, that criminals and criminal behavior is acutely sensitive to environmental cues, and he uses the example, the broken window. If there’s a car sitting on the street with the broken window, it is an invitation to someone to vandalize the car. Why? Because a broken window on a car symbolizes the fact that no one cares about the car, no one is in charge, no one is watching. And if you think about it, this is a fundamentally different idea about crime than the kind of ideas that we’ve been carrying for the past 25 years. We havebeen told by conservatives over and over again that crime is the result of moral failure, of something deep and intrinsic within the hearts and souls and brains of criminals. That a criminal is by definition, in the sword of conservative topology, someone who is insensitive to their environment, right? They just go out and commit crimes, because that’s who they are. They are criminals. Well, Kelling came along and said,”well, no, no, a criminal is like all of us, someone acutely sensitive to what’s going on in the environment. And by making subtle changes in the environment, you can encourage and induce much more socially responsible behavior.”Well, in New York, we have the perfect test case of that idea. It starts in the subway. You know, in the early 1980s.they decided to clean up the subway. Well, how did they do it? The subway was a complete mess right? It was. Crime rates were going through the roof. They bring in a man who was a big disciple of this idea, of broken windows. And what does he do? Well, the first thing he does is he picks up all the litter. The second thing he does is he cleans up the graffiti, and the third thing he does is he says from now on, no one will ever jump a turnstile in the New York city’s subway station again. He put corps by the turnstiles, and if someone jumps, he arrests them. Everybody said he was crazy. But you’ve got a subway system where people are killing, and robbing, and assaulting and raping each other, and what do you do? You go after the two kinds of criminality, that the only two kinds of criminality that in fact don’t hurt anybody else, right? Turnstile jumping and graffiti, you know, littering and graffiti. But it turns out that those were tipping points. Once they put those three changes in place, the subway starts to come around really quiet dramatically. It’s because if you are on a subway that’sclean and if you are walking into the subway, and no one is allowed to jump the turnstile any more, all the sudden, everyone gets the message that someone is in charge, and somebody cares about this. It’s not a space that permits this kind of criminal behavior。

Unit 1PART ONE About Cambridge UniversityW : How close to the town centre of Cambridge are we here?M: Oh, I should think not much more than a quarter of a mile.W: I can't hear any traffic.M: No. That's the beauty of Cambridge, isn't it? Y ou're here in the countryside and you might be miles from anywhere.W: And there is that chapel, that famous landmark.M: That's it. The absolute symbol of Cambridge is King's College Chapel.W: It's so beautiful. And that's its land?M: This is all King's College on either side. And when we're coming into the college we impress on visitors that you do not walk on the grass. Only the fellows walk on the grass.W: "Fellows only" and you hear about "fellows" of colleges. What is a fellow? What does it mean?M: In a company, they would be the directors of a company. So they're very often at the same time lecturers and professors in the university; some are administrators, obviously, people like the treasurer of the college一usually called the "bursar".W : But they are permanently attached to that college?M: They are permanently attached to the college一they're the board of directors.W: That, then, is Clare?M: That is Clare College. That's the next college. That's the second oldest college in Cambridge. W : Is it?M: The buildings are seventeenth-century but the college itself was founded early in the fourteenth.W: This is Clare Bridge.M: This is the oldest bridge in Cambridge.W : Ah.M: Tn about 1640. This was built when they were rebuilding the college. So now we are up to Trinity College. And this is the grandest, the richest college of them all.W: That is a splendid building, isn't it?M: This is the Wren Library.W: It's all on the upstairs floor; there's nothing downstairs, except an arcade.M: It's very cunningly done, you see, because Wren's very near the river. He wanted to avoid any risk of flooding.W: Ah.M: And so he put everything up off the ground level. Now we are into John's.W : This is John's College here?M: Which is the next biggest college after Trinity.W: Marvelous! What a lovely sights. And, in spite of all this history, Cambridge is not steeped in the past. It is still a centre of learning and a centre of excellence.M: Oh, very much, very much. The Cambridge Science Park was developed here with new industries linked to the science side of the university. A growth phenomenon. "The Cambridge phenomenon" they call this.W: This is astonishing一this one with, this structure on the top.M: They sometime s call this "the Bridge of Sighs.”M: And this is one of the very earliest developments of the river.W: Ah.M: Well, there are only two colleges like this which have a choir school attached —— St John's and King's. And the choir school is over in that direction. Y ou see the little boys coming down with the top hats and black coats.PART TWO Y ou Have Been at Cornell University…Y ou have been at Cornell University for two weeks now. As usual, you need enough time to sleep and eat. Y ou also want to spend time with your new friends and get some exercise. But, after the first two weeks of classes, you have probably concluded that there isn't enough time, to do all these things, because you also have to attend classes, go to labs, do assignments and write papers.Soon you will be in a situation like this one: Y ou are going to have a quiz in your ten o'clock class. Y ou studied for it until 3 am. Y ou also have an eight o’clock class. Should you sleep late and skip the eight o'clock class?To some extent the answer depends on the professor of the course. Some instructors announce that they require attendance. In that case you really should go to class. Some don't say anything. In that case you have to decide. Once in a while it is better to stay in bed and sleep than to get so tired that you cannot think. However, it is not a good idea to skip class more than a few times.If you have to skip a class, ask another student for the class notes, announcement and the assignment. Also, come to the next class prepared. If you miss the class because you are sick, tell the instructor afterward. He or she may let you make up the work. If you have an important appointment, tell the instructor about it before you miss the class.Here is another problem. Y ou took the quiz. Even after studying very hard, you could not answer all the questions. In high school you always got every answer right. What went wrong? Nothing. High school work is easy, so a good student is supposed to get a perfect score. In college the teacher wants to challenge even the best students. Therefore, almost nobody answers every question correctly.But .maybe there were some very basic ideas in that course you don’t understand. Go to see the teacher during his or her office hours. Most teachers will gladly explain things again. Of course, they will not be pleased to repeat what they said in class to someone who skipped class.Maybe you really should get up for that eight o'clock class!PART THREE Women T eachers in Primary SchoolM: I recently read an article which said that in primary schools in particular promotion chances of women teachers are less than men, that men generally get promoted far quicker than women in primary education. Is this something you’ve noticed or is this something you feel?F: No, this is something that is so. I read that article, too. I would have written it myself, really. And we come back full circle really because it's not just teaching. I mean it's everything that men are getting promotion more quickly than women. In the primary sector there are far more women teachers than men but there are more headmasters’ than headmistresses.M: So where does that leave someone like you? I mean what, what are the possibilities of your promotion in primary education? At he moment you're in charge of a section of high school.F: Y es, I'm in charge of the infant department which goes from the children who are three to the children who are seven. And they transfer when they are seven to higher up the school which iscalled the junior department. So I'm in charge of the Lower School, if you like.M: And do you have ambition in that sense? I mean you like to be a headmistress?F: No, no, no. -I would not. I would not like to be a headmistress at all. I mean this is the next stage of my career were I ambitious…but I, basically enjoy being a classroom teacher. Now perhaps this gives a clue to why there are not more women heads. I don't know… I mean in the past it may have been that, and it may still be, that because boys are brought up to be more ambitious, that they're the ones who are going for promotion and quick promotion, I mean rapid promotion so that they are heads by the time they're thirty and they start out in their career thinking that whereas I enjoy being a class teacher, I was a deputy head before I got this post, but I prefer to be in the classroom with the children than sitting at a desk doing administration which is what being a head means if you're a head of a largish school.M: Are you pleased that you chose primary teaching as a career .and if someone came up to you at school leaving age and was wondering about what they were going to do, would you advise them to follow in your footsteps?F: I'm very pleased that I did — well, I'm pleased most of the time. Monday morning I'm not pleased. Some mornings during the week and the end of the holidays I'm not pleased. I'm a primary school teacher; I mean basically I am. I left teaching once and then went back into it, I think that shows that I am committed to be a primary school teacher.Questions:1. What has the man read recently?2. What. does the woman mean by the "Lower School"?3, According to the woman, why do men get rapid promotion?4. What does the woman want for herself?5. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the dialogue?PART FOUR When!Was'at Marrow…I was born of a working-class father and the aspiration of many self-made men is to send their children to private boarding schools, to give them the best education money can buy, and one of the best schools in the country is Harrow.Harrow is one of those institutions when I vas there which at that time were really geared to train an elite ruling class, so that everything was geared to that, and so team spirit and team games were the thing, and games were really more important than the acquisition of knowledge. If you were good at games you were considered to be one of the heroes of the school and if you were good at work then the chances are you would be derided and laughed at as a swot or somebody who worked hard and studied hard, and that was not the attribute of a gentleman. So there were some games, like tennis, golf, that were frowned on and you were not encouraged to pursue those games but you were more encouraged to play cricket and football and Harrow football and so forth because it required a team effort, you were one of a team, you were not an individual, and it seemed to me that the public school system actually ground out the individual. Y ou fitted into a mould; you learnt to accept certain standards. Y ou never showed pain, for example, you didn’t whinge about pain or discomfort and schools in my day were not comfortable places. They are now.’I think tying in with the importance of games is the fact that also you had to be a "man", and if people abroad think that the English gentleman is someone who is clean of limb, I can assure you he's not. I think most of us washed about once a week; in winter, we used to; it was a mark ofa gentleman as well that; and being tough and hard, that you didn't wear an overcoat so this meant that in winter we would pull our clothes off and the whole lot came off, shirt, several pullovers and vests and they all came off in one go. We then put our pyjamas on and if the next morning it was particularly cold we'd just put the whole damn lot on over- the pyjamas so you'd see small boys with bits of about an inch or two of pyjama trouser showing out at the bottom of their grey trousers, but you went, in the end, if it sort of dropped to minus ten you went around like little Michelin men with layers and layers of things on but no overcoat一that was the sign of weakness. PART FIVE A T ypical University Course in North AmericaSince many of you are planning to study at a college or university in this country, you may be curious to know what a typical college course is like. What can you expect to do in a typical week? How many exams will you have? Will you have to do a lot of writing? What should you do if you have any problems? These are the questions I want to discuss with you, today.First let's talk about what your weekly schedule will look like. If you're an undergraduate in any field or major, you can expect to spend between four and six hours a week for each class attending lectures, no matter what your major may be. Lectures are usually in very large rooms because undergraduate courses such as introduction to psychology or economics often have as many as two or three hundred students, especially at large universities. In lectures, it’s very important for you to take notes on what the professor says because the information in a lecture is often different from the information in your textbooks. Also, you can expect to have exam questions based on the lectures. So it isn't enough to just read your textbooks; you have to attend lectures as well. In a typical week you will also have one or two hours of discussion for every class you take. The discussion section is a small group meeting, usually with fewer than thirty students; where you can ask questions about the lectures, the reading, and the homework. In large universities, graduate students called teaching assistants or T. A. s, usually conduct discussion sections.If your major is chemistry, or physics; or another science, you will also have to spend several hours a week in the lab, or laboratory, doing experiments. This means that science majors spend more time in the classroom than non-science majors do. On the other hand, people who major in subjects like literature or anthropology usually have to read and write more than science majors do.Now I'd like to go on and say a few words about examinations. Most university courses have at least two exams: one in the middle of the quarter, called a midterm, and one at the end, called the final exam. Most courses also have occasional quizzes, which are smaller tests given every week or two: There are two basic types of exam questions. There are objective questions, such as multiple choice, true/falser matching or filling in the blank, and essay questions; where you must write an essay or a composition in response to a question. Most exams are a combination of essay and objective questions.In some courses, especially in-non-science ones, you might also have to write are search paper. A research paper is a writing project in which you choose a topic related to the course, go to the library, lead several articles and books on the topic, take notes, and then write a paper about what you have read. Y ou can see that the ability to write is extremely important in American universities.The final point that I want to cover today is what you should do if you need help in a particular class. If you're having a problem, you should make an appointment to see yourinstructor immediately. Don't be shy! Instructors plan to spend a certain amount of time each week with the students. They see the students in their offices during office hours. Instructors will almost always announce their office hours at the first class meeting. Y ou can also make a special appointment to see your instructor if you can't go to his or her regular office hours. I might add that it's a good idea to make an appointment to see your instructor even if you don’t have a particular problem. That way it will be easier if you need special help later on.So far I've talked about college course structure, about exams, about research papers, and about getting help if you need it. Let's stop here and see if there are any questions.PART SIX Listening and T ranslationA. Sentence translation(1) I wouldn't ask you if it wasn't important, but could you possibly babysit for us tomorrow evening?(2) Y ou could leave it here at reception, if it's not too big, or you could take it with you to the station and put it in one of the lockers there.(3) Shares on the London Stock Exchange traded sharply lower than Friday, undermined by turmoil on bond and currency markets.(4) Expenditure on clothing, durable consumer goods, recreation, health care and transport all increased, while housing conditions improved for city dwellers.(5) The World Bank urged Asian countries to speed the development of their domestic bond markets to meet the huge demand for public works financing.B. Passage translation(1) Well, one of the worst experiences I had was at the end of a long holiday, a very long way away from home. And I'd booked an air-flight home, and two days before the flight was about to leave, I had my passport and my airline ticket stolen. So I went to the British Embassy trying to get a new ticket and anew passport, and they said they could only give me a passport if I could prove I was leaving一and I didn't have my ticket. So I went to the airline and they said I could only have a new ticket if I could prove who I was, but I didn't have a passport. So I was in a bit of a tricky situation. But I finally did get a temporary passport from the embassy and I finally flew home.(2) AIDS is big business maybe Africa's biggest business. There's nothing else that can generate as much aid money as AIDS. AIDS is a political disease here, and we should be very skeptical, of course. Hunger should not be a problem in most of the countries south of the Sahara. In addition, there are vast natural resources: oil, gold and diamonds. Africa is always only portrayed as a continent of suffering, but most figures are vastly exaggerated. In the industrial nations, there's a sense that Africa would go under without development aid. But believe me, Africa existed before you Europeans came along. And we didn't do all that poorly either.。

上外中级口译第三版听力教程原文及讲解--Unit14中级口译听力教程第三版6BUnit 14. Part one. A great musician. 2. Exercises.1. Listen to the passage about Beethoven and decide whether the following statements are true, T, or false, F.Although Beethoven could sit down and make up music easily, his really great compositions did not come easily at all. They cost him a great deal of hard work. We know how often he rewrote and corrected his work, because his notebooks are still kept in museums and libraries. He always found it hard to satisfy himself. When he was 28, the worst difficulty of all came to him. He began to notice a strange humming in his ears. At first he paid little attention, but it grew worse. And at last, he consulted doctors. They gave him the worst news any musician can hear, he was gradually going deaf. Beethoven was in despair. He was sure that he was going to die. He went away to the country and from there he wrote a long farewell letter to his brothers. In this he told them how depressed and lonely his deafness had made him. It was impossible for me to ask men to speak loud or shout for I am deaf, he wrote. How could I possibly admit them in affirmative in the one sense, which should be more perfect in me than in others. I must live like an exile. He long to die. And said to death, come when you will, I shall meet you bravely. In fact Beethoven did something braver than dying. He gathered his courage and went on writing music. Though he could hear what he wrote only more and more faintly, he wrote his best music, the music we remember him for after he became deaf. The music he wrote was very different from any that had been composed before. Instead of the elegant and stately music that earlier musicians hadwritten for their wealthy listeners, Beethoven wrote stormy, exciting, revolutionary music which reminds us of his trouble and courageous life. He grew to admire courage more than anything. And he called one of his symphonies the eroica or heroic symphony to celebrate the memory of a great man. Describing the dramatic opening notes of his famous fifth symphony he said, thus fate knocks on the door.

Native American music. Listen to the following talk about Jazz, and then choose the best answer to each question you hear.Of all the varieties of music which fill our concert halls, theatres and nightclubs, only Jazz is native American music. Symphonies and concertos, the ancestors of movie and television scores as well as of serious legitimate electronic music were first composed in Germany. Musical comedies are descended from opera which was first performed in Italy. And our ever popular nightclub singers are the music heirs of the French singers. The one form of music which does not originate in Europe and which is popular today world wide is Jazz. Jazz was born in New Orleans, the child of the blacks. It drew on the rhythms as well as the emotionalism of the African music of the black’s ancestors which has been transformed into rap tongues and blues. From rap tongue Jazz took a single pitted rhythms, while from the blues it adopted monologue and harmonic elements such as mournful tunes once sung by slaves and close Barbie shop type chromatic coordination.Questions:1) Where did symphonies and concertos originate?2) What is the origin of musical comedies perform now?3) What kind of music is jazz based on?3. The receiver of music. Here is a short talk about music. Listen and then choose the best answer to each question you hear.We may engage ourselves with music as a creator that is a composer, or as a re-creator that is a performer. But most of us engage ourselves with music as a receiver or a listener. As a listener we respond to music with different levels of receptivity. We may be very casual and careless about the way we hear music, paying almost no attention to it. Elevator or telephone music, for example, is not meant to be listened to intently. We’ve all used music as background sound to create a pleasant atmosphere for our own quiet thought. On the other hand, especially when we are on the road an easy listening can create a dream like haze, so we may deliberately tune out the music so as to concentrate on the driving. However, there are other times when music is the center of our focus, and we give out our full attention. This could be in a church, at a special event, or at a concert. But how are we supposed to listen? And what are we supposed to listen for? Basically there are two ways to experience music. Some people let the sounds wash over them like a sonic bath and emotional flood. This is the sensuous level. Other listeners respond on a perceptive or analytical level, paying attention to various aspects of the music as they unfold. They listen for musically events. The first level of attending to music is purely emotive, the second analytical. Ideally we learn to listen more perceptively in order to increase the emotional impact. The second way of perceptive or analytical listening reviews the expressive power of the music composition so that we can enjoy it more fully.Questions:1) What role do most of us play when we engage ourselves with music?2) Why do we sometimes deliberately tune out the music when we are on the road?3) According to the talk where is music most likely to become the center of our focus?4) How can we enjoy the music composition more fully?Part four.
