CATTI三级口译实务真题汇总(2015-2018年)CATTI三级口译实务真题汇总2018年5月CATTI三级口译实务真题回忆版Part 1 Dialogue Interpreting我看到一所学校门口聚集了很多的人,还有警察在维持秩序,很多焦急的家长在等待,发生了什么事?这是中国的高考,就是每年六月份在全国范围内举行的大型考试。
我听说过这个考试。
在美国,我们也有类似的考试,不过我们可以至少考两次,而且可以用最好的成绩去申请大学。
但是,中国的高考好像很有竞争性。
是的,高考竞争性非常大。
对有高中生的家庭来说,高考是一件非常重要的事,全家都会为此准备。
他们甚至在考试前一天就到考场附近租旅馆住。
我听说中国南方有一所非常有名的高中叫毛坦厂中学,有中国高考工厂之称,里面有很多去年落榜的复习生。
虽然高考非常具有竞争性,但在中国,无论你身份、地位如何,是否有钱,高考都非常重要。
对中国千百万人的年轻人来说,高考是进入大学最公平的途径。
Part 2 English to Chinese Interpreting(以下为中文回忆版内容)爱尔兰因位置得天独厚,位于欧洲大陆边缘,距离欧洲大陆较远,爱尔兰的风没有受到工业化的欧洲大陆的影响,因此拥有清洁的水源和空气。
爱尔兰牧场的理念是动物与自然和谐相处,奶农们都严格遵守生产流程和品质规定,非常看重爱尔兰奶制品已经取得的好名声。
最近,中国官方派遣代表团视察爱尔兰的乳制品工厂,给了很高的评价。
中国国内立刻掀起了对爱尔兰乳制品的追求狂潮,尤其是中国新生父母,他们对婴儿奶粉需求很大。
爱尔兰乳制品品质高,安全性好,中国成爱尔兰第二大乳制品出口市场。
近些年来,很多中国公司对爱尔兰进行了投资,投资数额有很大变化(具体的数字没记太清楚)。
他们主要投资两个领域:一是信息通信技术(ICT)领域,全球前10的信息和通信技术公司有9家在爱尔兰投资,因此吸引了大量的中国投资者。
另一方面是金融业,中国希望能与爱尔兰方面在金融领域深化合作。
2003年职称英语等级考试试题真题第3部分:概括大意与完成句子..joxue.Exercising Your Memory..joxue.1 Aging does not mean a dramatic decline in memory power, unless you help it help by letting your mind go...joxue.2 That's not to say that memory doesn't change throughout life. Researchers divide memory into categories based on the length of time when memories are stored. One system divides it up as short-term (less than one minute; remembering a telephone number while you dial, for instance), long-term (over a period of years) and very long-term memory (over a lifetime)...joxue.3 Short-term memory isn't mastered until about age 7, but after that you never lose it. Long-term memory, however, involves more effort and skill and changes through life. It's not until the early teens that most people develop a mature long-term memory...joxue.4 First, we must get information into our heads through learning. Learning strategies can get rusty (生锈的,迟钝的) without constant use. High school and college students, whoare forced to repeatedly exercise their long-term memory abilities (at least long-term enough to get them through a final exam), usually do well on memory tests. The longer you stay in school, the more chance you get to polish your learning skills. It's no wonder that more highly educated people have more effective memory skills throughout life...joxue.5 Although older people in general learn somewhat more slowly than they did when younger, a dramatic difference exists between those who stay intellectually active -- reading, discussing, taking classes, thinking -- and those who do not. Giving the brain a daily workout is just as important as exercising your muscles. Brainwork keeps your learning strategies in shape, and this helps your memory to function at full capacity...joxue.6 The next part of a healthy long-term memory is retention(保持力,记忆力), the ability to store what you have learned. Memory researchers still do not know whether memories are lost -- whether they still exist in the brain nut our mental searching cannot turn them up, or have disappeared entirely as our brain ages. ..joxue.7 The third necessity for memory is recall, the ability to mind the memories we have stored. Again, while aging haswidely different effects on the recall abilities of different people, research indicates that the older we get, the longer it takes to recall facts. But slower recall is still recall. In fact, aging does not seem to have any effect on forgetting at all, which takes place at the same rate in younger and older people. ..joxue.23. Paragraph 3_________ ..joxue.24. Paragraph 4 _________..joxue.25. Paragraph 5_________..joxue.26. Paragraph 6 ___________..joxue.A. Effects of aging on a person's recall ability..joxue.B. short-term memory versus long-term memory..joxue.C. retention as the second necessity for memory..joxue.D. like between learning strategies and effective memory skills ..joxue.E. Significance of exercising your muscles..joxue.F. importance of staying intellectually active..joxue.27. Retention refers to _____________...joxue.28. The rate of forgetting is the same _____________...joxue.29. Remembering something all your life _____________...joxue.30. Exercising your brain every day is beneficial_____________...joxue.A. to the proper function of your memory..joxue.B. is called long-term memory..joxue.C. the capacity to store what you have learned..joxue.D. belongs to every long-term memory..joxue.E. the ability to remain mentally healthy..joxue.F. for younger and older people..joxue.第4部分:阅读理解..joxue.第一篇..joxue.First Aid..joxue.First aid is emergency care for a victim of sudden illness or injury until more skillful medical treatment is available. It may save a life or improve certain vital signs including pulse, temperature, a clear airway(气道),and breathing. In minor emergencies, first aid may prevent a victim’s condition from turning worse and provide relief from pain. First aid must be administered as quickly as possible. In the case of the critically injured, a few minutes can make the difference between complete recovery and loss of life...joxue.First-aid measures depend upon a victim’s needs and the provider’s level of knowledge and skill. Knowing what not to do in an emergency is as important as knowing what to do.Improperly moving a person with a neck injury, for example, can lead to permanent spinal(脊柱的) injury and paralysis(瘫痪)...joxue.Despite the variety of injuries possible, several principles of first aid apply to all emergencies. The first step is to call for professional medical help. The victim, if conscious, should be reassured that medical aid has been requested, and asked for permission to provide any first aid. Next, assess the scene, asking other people or the injured person’s family or friends about details of the injury or illness, any care that may have already been given, and preexisting conditions such as diabetes(糖尿病) or heart trouble. The victim should be checked for a medical bracelet(手镯) or card that describes special medical conditions. Unless the accident scene becomes unsafe or card that describes special medical conditions. Unless the accident scene becomes unsafe or the victim may suffer further injury, do not move the victim...joxue.First aid requires rapid assessment of victims to determine whether life-threatening conditions exist. One method for evaluating a victim’s condition is known by the acronym(首字母缩写词) ABC, which stands for:..joxue.A- Airway: is it open and clear?..joxue.B- Breathing: is the person breathing? Look, listen, and feel for breathing...joxue.C- Circulation: is there a pulse? Is the person bleeding externally? Check skin color and temperature for additional indications of circulation problems...joxue.31.First aid may bring about all the following results EXPECT..joxue.A. saving a victim’s life...joxue.B. preventing a victim’s condition from getting worse...joxue.C. relieving a victim from pain...joxue.D. helping a person avoid sudden illness or injury...joxue.32.Before we administer first aid to a victim, it is very important for us..joxue.A. to make sure what to do and what not to do...joxue.B. to refer to all kinds of handbooks on first aid...joxue.C. to remove the ring or bracelet he may be wearing...joxue.D. to take him to a hospital at once...joxue.33.In administering first aid to a victim, you should first of all..joxue.A. remove him from the accident scene...joxue.B. turn him over...joxue.C. call for professional medical help...joxue.D. examine him carefully...joxue.34.You may assess a victim’s condition by all the following EXPECT..joxue.A. checking whether there is a pulse...joxue.B. looking ,listening and feeling for breathing...joxue.C. replacing his medical bracelet or card...joxue.D. examining whether the airway is open and clear...joxue.35.The purpose of the passage is to tell the reader..joxue.A. the importance of protecting the accident scene...joxue.B. some basic facts about first aid...joxue.C. what professional medical help is...joxue.D. who can administer first aid...joxue.第二篇..joxue.Stress at Work and Still Healthy..joxue.The term could yet become the word of the year; stress is on everyone’s lips these days and everywhere. Not only managers, officials and teachers are complaining nowadays, housewives, children and pensioners now also have their own problems. They too sacrifice themselves for others, feel under-or overworked and quickly lose their inner balance.Irritation, tiredness and exhaustion quickly follow. But that is only the negative aspect. Stress, after all, is also linked to positive terms such as joy of life, tension and vitality(活力)...joxue.“Firstly, stress is healthy,”says Wolfgang Stehling from Eltvelle. The doctor and management consultant says:”It occurs when the body loses its inner balance, but then stress hormones are produced to re-establish the balance.”Thus stress is nothing more than a positive reaction of the body to pressure. It is unavoidable as part of our nature: ”There is no such thing as a stress-free life.”..joxue.But whether stress leads to tensions in the mind or to tenseness of the muscles depends on the duration(持续时间), its cause or causes and the sufferer’s personal situation. People who have trouble sleeping or suffer from bad moods or simply the flu will not be on top of the world and will take every little strife as negative stress. Others, people who feel refreshed at every new turn, are relaxed and successful, will view a difficult round of negotiations or competition at work more as a positive challenge than a cross to bear...joxue.Exercise, healthy eating and relaxing are thus the three pillars by which stress can be conquered almost every time.These factors form a unit, explains Marita Voelker-Albert, spokeswoman for the government’s Nutrition Advice Center in Cologne. Its campaign “Gut Drauf”(Feeling Good) is targeted at young people. The government agency’s research suggests that three out of four adolescents feel tired, overtaxed(负担过重)and under stress. Eating disorders and complaints such as migraines(偏头痛)and indigestion(消化不良),nervousness and concentration problems have increased among 12- to 16-year-olds...joxue.But even the best solutions don’t work if they are not put into practice, says Stehling. Anybody who goes jogging regularly, practices yoga(瑜伽功)and prescribes good literature as a cure for negative stress, may well end up under more pressure as he tries to find the time for it all. Sometimes, says the consultant, it helps to take time out to reduce stress levels over a weekend...joxue.36.Which of the following is NOT a correct view on stress?..joxue.A. Stress has both positive and negative aspects...joxue.B. Stress is only a positive reaction of the body to pressure...joxue.C. Stress only leads to serious problems...joxue.D. Stress is unavoidable as part of our nature...joxue.37. A person who has lost his inner balance may soon feel..joxue.A. fit and healthy...joxue.B. under-or overworked...joxue.C. relaxed and happy...joxue.D. irritated, tired and exhausted...joxue.38. Who will easily take every little strife as negative stress?..joxue.A. Those who suffer from the flu...joxue.B. Those who are in good moods...joxue.C. Those who are successful...joxue.D. Those who feel refreshed at every new turn...joxue.39. All the following complaints are said to have increased among children aged 12 to 16 EXPECT..joxue.A. painful headache...joxue.B. indigestion...joxue.C. nervousness and concentration problems...joxue.D. loss of memory...joxue.40. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a possible cure for negative stress?..joxue.A. Reading good literature...joxue.B. Practicing yoga...joxue.C. Having a healthy diet...joxue.D. Working overtime...joxue.第三篇..joxue.Is the News Believable?..joxue.Unless you have gone through the experience yourself, or watched a loved one’s struggle, you really have no idea just how desperate cancer can make you. You pray, you rage, you bargain with God, but most of all you clutch at any hope, no matter how remote, of a second chance at life...joxue.For a few excited days last week, however, it seemed as if the whole world was a cancer patient and that all humankind had been granted a reprieve(痛苦减轻) . Triggered by a front-page medical news story in the usually reserved New York Times, all anybody was talking about--- on the radio, on television, on the Internet, in phone calls to friends and relatives----was the report that a combination of two new drugs could , as the Times put it, “cure cancer in two years.”..joxue.In a matter of hours patients had jammed their doctors’phone lines begging for a chance to test the miracle cancer cure. Cancer scientists raced to the phones to make sureeveryone knew about their research too, generating a new round of headlines...joxue.The time certainly seemed ripe for a breakthrough in cancer. Only last month scientists at the National Cancer Institute announced that they were halting a clinical trial of a drug called tamoxifen (他莫昔芬) ------ and offering it to patients getting the placebo(安慰剂) -----because it had proved so effective at preventing breast cancer (although it also seemed to increase the risk of uterine(子宫的) cancer). Two weeks later came the New York Times’report that two new drugs could shrink tumors of every variety without any side effects whatsoever...joxue.It all seemed too good to be true, and of course it was. There are no miracle cancer drugs, at least not yet. At this stage all the drug manufactures can offer is some very interesting molecules, and the only cancers they have cured so far have been in mice. By the middle of last week, even the TV talk-show hosts who talked most about the news had learned what every scientist already knew : that curing a disease in lab animals is not the same as doing it in humans. “The history of cancer research has been a history of curing cancer in the mouse,”Dr. Richard Klausner, head of the National CancerInstitute, told the Los Angeles Times. “We have cured mice of cancer for decades---and it simply didn’t work in people.”..joxue.41.According to the passage, a person suffering from cancer will..joxue.A. give up any hope...joxue.B. pray for the health of his loved ones...joxue.C. seize every chance of survival...joxue.D. go out of his way to help others...joxue.42. The unprecedented interest in the cure of cancer was aroused by..joxue.A. a nationwide discussion of the topic...joxue.B. an announcement by the National Cancer Institute...joxue.C. a medical news story in the Los Angeles Times...joxue.D. a report in the New York Times...joxue.43. According to the New York Times’report, a combination of two new drugs could..joxue.A. prevent breast cancer...joxue.B. reduce the size of all tumors...joxue.C. cure various diseases...joxue.D. prevent uterine cancer...joxue.44. In the first sentence of the last paragraph, “it was ”means..joxue.A. “it was too good to be true.”..joxue.B. “it was true.”..joxue.C. “it was a miracle drug.”..joxue.D. “it was good.”..joxue.45. The history of cancer research has shown that..joxue.A. miracle cancer drugs often turn up unexpectedly...joxue.B. the mass media can work wonders...joxue.C. animals and humans are similar in behaviour...joxue.D. curing cancers in mice is much easier than in humans...joxue.第5部分:补全短文..joxue.A New Medicine to Treat Both AIDS and Hepatitis B..joxue.A medicine approved last moth to treat AIDS(艾滋病) also shows promise against hepatitis B(乙的肝炎)...joxue.The drug, 3TC, puts down the hepatitis B virus in people with chronic infections, stopping its damage to the liver, researchers reported...joxue.About one million Americans are thought to be infected with hepatitis B, which can lead to cirrhosis(肝硬化),liver failureand liver cancer in a small proportion of victims if left untreated.__________(46)...joxue.“It’s a preliminary study, but this is promising. It looks like it has the potential to make a significant impact on hepatitis B,”said Dr Jules L.Dienstag of Massachusetts General Hospital, who directed the study...joxue.Currently the only treatment for hepatitis B is interferon(干扰素). Such a treatment can permanently eliminate the virus in about one-third of patients.___________(47)...joxue.In the latest study, doctors found that 3TC appeared to knock out the virus permanently in about 20%of patients when given for three months.___________(48)..joxue.Unlike interferon; 3TC is given in pill form and carries few side effects. The drug was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in November for use against AIDS...joxue.Both the hepatitis B virus and the AIDS virus need a protein to reproduce.___________(49). Doctors have tested similar AIDS drugs against hepatitis B. but all except 3TC have turned out to be ineffective or too toxic(有毒的)。

Each person has an invisible boundary around their body into which other people may not come. If someone goes beyond this boundary, they will feel uncomfortable and move away to increase the distance between them (The major exception is family members and other loved ones.). This personal distance is not due to unpleasant body smell or bad breath, but because closeness lends a sense of intimacy(亲密) that is in disagreement with their relationship to the other individual.Interestingly, the average personal distance varies form culture to culture. Americans tend to require more personal space than people in other cultures. So if you try to get too close to an American during your conversation, he or she will feel that you are in their face” and will try to back away. Try to be aware of this; so if the person to whom you are speaking backs away a little, don’t try to close the gap. Also, try to avoid physical contact while you are speaking, since this may also lead to discomfort. Touching is a bit too intimate for nodding acquaintances(相识的人)So don’t put your arm around their shoulder, touch their face, or hold their hand. Shaking hands when you initially meet or part is acceptable, but this is only momentary.33. When two people talk to each other they_____.A. always stand as close to each other as possibleB. usually keep a certain distance between themC. pay no attention to the distance between themD. feel more comfortable if they are close enough34. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. There is an invisible distance between two speakers.B. Speakers keep a specific distance for the sake of their health.C. speakers keep a space between them because of their bad breath.D. personal space isn’t important when family members talk to each other35. According to the author, during a conversation _____A. personal distance may differ in different culturesB. eastern people require more personal space than western peopleC. western people require more personal space than eastern peopleD. both sides feel more comfortable if they keep as close as possible36. In a conversation with a nodding acquaintance, you’d better_____.A. not shake hands with himB. touch him gently firstC. not touch himD. contact him physically37. The best title for the passage can be______.A. A sense of Intimacy in CommunicationB. An Invisible Boundary in CommunicationC. Different Cultures in CommunicationD. Personal Space in ConversationPassage two:Questions 38 to 42 are based on the following passage.Last year I purchased a game for my boys and I played it with them. The trouble was that everyone won the game. We all arrived at the end together. This seems great in theory, but where’s the incentive to keep playing? We played the game twice, it has been t here gathering dust ever since.Without a potential winner, a game or contest loses its excitement. If there’s nothing to compete for, the drive to do one’s best is replaced by a “What the point” attitude. Competition is closely related to motivation. It’s part of human nature to be competitive; after all, survival of the fittest is the basis of evolution. A competitive spirit is the key to our success as adults. So why shouldn’t we cultivate it in our children?I am not suggesting we set our children against each other in heated competitions in all aspects of life. We should guard against coaches who lose the spirit of good sportsmanship in the heat of the game. But in the right situations, a healthy competition can teach our kids a lot about life. While games and contests illustrate the importance of drive and determination, they also teach our children how to lose. And with that comes other good lessons—about learning from mistakes, searching for ways to improve and finding the will to try again.38. We can learn from the first paragraph that the game bought by the author______.A. proved to be unchallengingB. caused trouble for childrenC. gathered dust very easilyD. was played with lots of fun39. The second paragraph mainly tells us that______.A. there is a potential winner in all gamesB. only adults have a competitive spiritC. humans are competitive by natureD. was played with lots of fun40. The word “drive” (line 2, paragraph2) is close in meaning to______.A. strengthB. energyC. abilityD. spirit41. According to the author, in a game or contest children should be encouraged_______.A. to obey their coaches strictlyB. to compete in all aspects of lifeC. to develop a competitive spiritD. to compete for nothing but a prize42. What is important for a loser in the game?A. CompetitionB. Self-determinationC. SurvivalD. Self-improvementPassage threeQuestions 43 to 47 are based on the following passage.Shortly after Charles Darwin published his theory of evolution, a lady was asked what she thought of the idea that human and animals came down from a common ancestor(祖先). Let us hope it is not true, “she said. “ And, if it is true, let us hope it does not become public knowledge.”This story is probably untrue, but it illustrates well the attitudes of the time. Today, we are more comfortable with our past. Many people accept Darwin’s view of how we came into being- that our bodies evolved through the process of natural selection acting on our genes.However, Darwin believed evolution was responsible for far more than just our physical characteristics. He saw it as the major influence in shaping our psychology. Indeed, he predicted that “ in the distant future, psychology will be based on a new foundation.” This foundation was, of course, his theory of evolution.To those in favor of concepts like free will and personal responsibility, such an idea seems quite stupid. But a growing number of scientists are questioning the extent to which our behavior is controlled by our culture. Their research has revealed increasing evidence that the human mind is made up of natural mechanisms(机制),which control everything from the way we perceive time and space, to how we learn survival techniques and choose mates.43. The story about the lady suggests that, in Darwin’s time, the theory of evolution made many people feel_______.A. embarrassedB. delightedC. comfortableD. miserable44. Which of the following statement is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?A. people’s attitudes towards Darwin’s view remain unchangedB. Darwin’s view of man’s origin has been widely acceptedC. Natural selection has no effect on our genesD. The story about the lady has proved to be true45. The phrase “was responsible for” in line 1, Paragraph 3 most probably means “_______”A. had the ability to influenceB. had the duty ofC. was to blame forD. was the cause of46. According to Darwin’s view, our psychology______.A) will change greatly in the futureB) has nothing to do with evolutionC. is mainly shaped by evolutionD. is shaped by our physical characteristics47. If Darwin’s view on our psychology is correct, what controls our behavior?A. The characteristics of our culture.B. The mechanisms of our mind.C. the way we perceive time and space.D. the way we live and choose mates.Passage fourQuestions 48 to 52 are based on the following passage.November 7, 2000 is a very special day in the United States. V otes all across the nation are electing representatives in local and national races. Some people think they are voting for the president of our country too. They’re not! Again, they’re voting for representatives, who are called electors.In most states the electors are chosen on a winner-take-all basis. That makes it possible for one candidate to win the most electors while less popular votes nationally than his opponent.The electors will meet in their respective states and cast their votes for the president and the vice-president on December 18, 2000. The Constitution does not force the electors to vote for the candidates that they promise to vote for, but they almost always do. On January 6, 2001, just two weeks before the new president and vice-president take office, the votes will be counted in the Congress.If no one gets a majority of the electoral votes, at least 270 out of 538, the winners will be chosen by the Congress. The House of Representatives will choose (one vote per state) the president and the Senate(参议院) will choose the vice-president. It’s not likely. But we could actually end up with a president from one party and a vice-president from another.48. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the first paragraph?A. Electors are representatives of local and national races.B. Local voters are usually referred to as electors.C. Electors are chosen by representatives for each state.D. Local voters have the right to choose the US president directly.49. What should the electors do?A. Promise to vote for popular candidates.B. V ote for the candidates they promise to.C. Gather in the Congress to vote for the president.D. Vote for the president in their respective states.50. A candidate will become the U.S. president if the gets_____.A. about half of the electoral votesB. over half of the electoral votesC. most of the electoral votes from the same partyD. most of the electoral votes from two parties51. The new president will take office _____ after the voting starts.A. in about two weeks C. in about two and a half monthsB. in about two months D. in about half a year52. The main idea of the passage is ______ the US president is elected.A. howB. whyC. whereD. whenPart IV: Translation from English into Chinese (10%)1. (Lines 4-5, paragraph2, passage1)…so if the person to whom you are speaking backs away a little, don’t try to close the gap.A) 因此,如果正在与你说话的人往后退了一点的话,就不要去缩短这个距离。
Section 1: English-Chinese Translation (50 points)Translate the following passage into Chinese.Guidebook company Lonely Planet has revealed its 18th annual“Best in Travel” list.The 2023 edition is in a slightly different format than it has been in years past. Rather than a simple list, the destinations are split up into five categories – eat, learn, journey, unwind and connect. “This year, we really wanted to try something new and we wanted to reflect the way that we saw travelers looking for travel, which was about the destination, but also about the experience,” explains Nitya Chambers, executive editor and senior vice president of content at Lonely Planet.Lonely Planet reaches out to its wide network of contributors around the world and asks them to nominate destinations they believe should be on the list. From there, editors at Lonely Planet HQ begin to ask more questions, work their sources and narrow down the options until it is released in November.That might mean taking a chance on a new country, like Malta or Guyana, that all your friends haven’t been to yet. It might mean choosing a less-visited place in a favorite destination, like Marseille rather than Paris or Fukuoka instead of Tokyo. All four spots are among the 30 destinations of the 2023 list. It’s no surprise that Peru appears as one of the picks under the “eat” section of Lonely Planet’s list –as it has been racking up the recognition for years on the World’s 50 Best Restaurants list. However, its South American sibling Montevideo – another “eat” entry – is not as high profile. Street food lovers should head to Kuala Lumpur. The capital is a perfect location for an introduction to food from all over Malaysia, like Penang-style curries and fish maw soup.As the world opened up after long Covid restrictions, many travelers felt the urge to connect or reconnect with others. Sydney, in this context, makes Lonely Planet’s “connect” list. The Australian city is known for its friendly inhabitants, as well as for its beautiful beaches, top-notch food scene and a pretty cool opera house. People with African heritage may want to head to Ghana for their own sense of connection. The country observed a Year of Return in 2019, which brought people from all over the diaspora to Ghana with fellowship and community. Just because the pass of the year doesn’t mean the loss of the sense of connection. The country,observed a Year of Return in 2019, which brought people from all over the diaspora to Ghana for fellowship and community. Just because the year passed doesn’t mean that the sense of connection has gone: Ghana wants to hit a goal of eight million tourists per year.The pandemic spurred another powerful desire, too:the stress of working from home while homeschooling the kids over Zoom means many travelers just want to take a long break. Island destinations, like Jamaica and Dominica in the Caribbean, are just the place to unwind, according to Lonely Planet. The former is high on Chambers’ personal list for 2023. “There’s just an opportunity with our kids in the summer (to) spend some more time, go immerse and have the experience of living somewhere where you can really feel changed and transformed by being part of another place.Malta – another “unwind” destination – is a lesser-known gem with the climateof Italy and the landscape of the Middle East. And in Asia, the Indonesian archipelago of Raja Ampat might be one of the last paradises left on Earth. It is loved for eco-tourism and is home to a massively successful coral restoration project. LP designated six “journey” spots, places for most travel-lovers. It’s no surprise that the central Asian kingdom of Bhutan made the cut.【参考译文】:旅行指南出版商《孤独星球》(LonelyPlanet) 连续第18年发布年度“世界最佳旅行目的地”(BestinTravel) 榜单。

..joxue.Friendly Relations with the People Around..joxue.You depend on all the people closely around you to give you the warm feeling of belongingness (归属)that you must have to feel secure. But, in fact, the members of all the groups to which you belong also depend on you to give that feeling to them, a person who shows that he wants everything for himself is bound (一定的) to be a lonely wolf...joxue.The need for companionship is closely related to the need for a sense of belongingness. How sad and lonely your life would be if you had no one to share your feelings and experiences. You may take it for granted that there always will be people around to talk to and to do things with you and for you. The important point, however, is that keepingemotionally healthy does not depend so much on having people around you as upon your ability to establish relationships that are satisfying both to you and to them...joxue.Suppose you are in a crowd watching a football game. You don't know them. when the game is over, you will go your separate ways. But just for a while you had a feeling of companionship, of sharing the feeling of others who were cheering for the team you wanted to win...joxue.An experience of this kind gives the clue(线索) to what companionship really is. It depends upon emotional ties of sympathy, understanding, trust, and affection. Companionships become friends when these ties are formed...joxue.When you are thrown in a new circle of acquaintance(熟人), you may not know with whom you will make friends, but you can be sure that you will be able to establish friendships if you show that you really like people...joxue.23.

2003年12月笔译二级综合能力真题试卷(题后含答案及解析)题型有:2. Reading ComprehensionPART 2 Reading Comprehension (50 points)In this part you will find a number of questions or unfinished statements after each passage. You must choose one letter (marked A,B,C, and D) you think fits best. The time for this part is 70 minutes.To Err Is Human by Lewis Thomas Everyone must have had at least one personal experience with a computer error by this time. Bank balances are suddenly reported to have jumped from $379 into the millions, appeals for charitable contributions are mailed over and over to people with crazy sounding names at your address, department stores send the wrong bills, utility companies write that they’re turning everything off, that sort of thing. If you manage to get in touch with someone and complain, you then get instantaneously typed, guilty letters from the same computer, saying, “Our computer was in error, and an adjustment is being made in your account.”These are supposed to be the sheerest, blindest accidents. Mistakes are not believed to be the normal behavior of a good machine. If things go wrong, it must be a personal, human error, the result of fingering, tampering a button getting stuck, someone hitting the wrong key. The computer, at its normal best, is infallible. I wonder whether this can be true. After all, the whole point of computers is that they represent an extension of the human brain, vastly improved upon but nonetheless human, superhuman maybe. A good computer can think clearly and quickly enough to beat you at chess, and some of them have even been programmed to write obscure verse. They can do anything we can do, and more besides. It is not yet known whether a computer has its own consciousness, and it would be hard to find out about this. When you walk into one of those great halls now built for the huge machines, and standing listening, it is easy to imagine that the faint, distant noises are the sound of thinking, and the turning of the spools gives them the look of wild creatures rolling their eyes in the effort to concentrate, choking with information. But real thinking, and dreaming, are other matters. On the other hand, the evidence of something like an unconscious, equivalent to ours, are all around, in every mail. As extensions of the human brain, they have been constructed the same property of error, spontaneous, uncontrolled, and rich in possibilities.1.The title of the writing “To Err Is Human” implies that______.A.making mistakes is confined only to human beings.B.every human being cannot avoid making mistakes.C.all human beings are always making mistakes.D.every human being is born to make bad mistakes.正确答案:B解析:答案出自文章中第二段的第三句If things go wrong, it must be a personal, human error...,人类犯错总是不可避免的。
CATTI2003年12月英语三级口译实务试题 试题部分 Part I Listen to the following dialogue and interpret it as required. After you hear a sentence or a short passage in Chinese, interpret it into English by speaking to the microphone. And after you hear an English sentence or short passage, interpret it into Chinese. You will hear the dialogue only once. 赵:“地球日”是怎么回事?什么时候开始的?都取得了哪些成就? Zhao: So what is the purpose of “Earth Day”, how did it get started and what exactly has it accomplished?
Smith: Earth Day was started in 1970. It was set to help raise the general public’s environmental awareness. For one thing, it provides a special day to remind people to take care of the Earth. It also gives special interest and environmental groups an opportunity to motivate their members to take action in their communities. 史密斯:“地球日”是1970年开始的,目的是提高公众的环保意识。一则是这一活动可以提醒人们要细心照看好我们的地球,同时也使特别利益团体和环保组织有机会动员自己的成员在各自社区采取行动。
赵:听起来不错。可就在环保取得成绩的同时,人口膨胀,臭氧层空洞,全球气候变暖这些问题一点也没有改善。地球人口越多,资源消耗的越多,产生的垃圾也越多,到时连种粮食的地都没有了怎么办?对此我们决不可掉以轻心。 Zhao: That all sounds nice. But compared with progress made in environmental protection, nothing seems to have changed in population explosion, ozone depletion, global warming and that sort of thing. Let’s face it, the more people on the earth, the more resources will be used up and the more waste there will be. What are we going to do if we run out of land for food? We must not take the issue lightly.
Smith: That is certainly true. By the year 2005, there will be 7 billion people on the planet. I personally think that recycling is the answer. Paper, metal, rubber, oil, and many other materials are going to have to be recycled on a much greater scale. Everyone will have to be involved. Perhaps even special legislation will be required. It is true that we are losing millions of hectares every year to housing and roads. But there is still a lot of undeveloped land that could be used for both farming and housing. And science and technology is helping us to get more out of the land that is used for farming. 史密斯:你说的很对。到2005年,地球人口将达70亿。我个人认为解决上述问题的方法在废品回收利用。纸张,金属,橡胶,油料,以及许多物资都必须在更大程度上回收利用。每个人都要参与。也许还需要特别立法。我们的确正在因建房筑路失去千百万公顷的土地,但未开发的土地还不少,可以用来种植农作物或建房。科学技术能帮我们从农田取得更大的收获。
赵: 那么今年“地球日”你打算都干点什么呢? Zhao: So what are you going to do for Earth Day this year? Smith: I will probably attend our city’s annual “Earth Day” celebrations and then help pick up the mountain of garbage left over. 史密斯:我也许会参加市里举办的“地球日”纪念大会,然后帮忙清扫成山的垃圾。
Part II Interpret the following passage from English to Chinese. On August 31, 1997, Lady Diana Spencer, former wife of Charles, Prince of Wales, was killed with her companion Dodi Fayed in a car accident in Paris. Tests conducted by French police indicated that the driver, who also died in the crash, was intoxicated and likely caused the accident while trying to escape the paparazzi photographers who consistently tailed Diana during any public outing. Sixteen years earlier, nearly four billion people in 74 countries had tuned in to witness the marriage of Prince Charles, heir to the British throne, to Lady Diana, a young English schoolteacher. Married in a grand ceremony at St Paul’s Cathedral in the presence of 2,650 guests, the couple’s romance was for the moment the envy of the world. However, before long the fairy-tale couple grew apart, an experience that was particularly painful under the ubiquitous eyes of the world’s tabloid media. In August 1996, two months after Queen Elizabeth II urged the couple to divorce, the prince and princess reached a final agreement. In exchange for a generous settlement, and the right to retain her apartments at Kensington Palace and her title of princess, Diana agreed to relinquish the title of “Her Royal Highness” and any future claims to the British throne. In the year between the divorce and her fatal car accident, the popular princess seemed well on her way of achieving her dream of becoming “a queen in people’s hearts.” 1997年8月31日,威尔士亲王查尔斯的前妻戴安娜`斯宾塞女士与她的男友多迪?法耶德在巴黎遇车祸死亡。 法国警察进行了化验,化验结果表明,在车祸中死亡的司机喝醉了酒,他在躲避每次戴安娜外出时紧随不放的摄影记者时出了车祸。 16年前,在74个国家有近40亿人在电视上目睹英国王位的继承人查尔斯亲王与年轻的英国教师戴安娜的婚礼。他们俩在圣保罗教堂举行了盛大的仪式,有2,650人出席,当时他们俩的浪漫故事使世人羡慕。 但是不久,这童话般一对儿的感情就破裂了。世界各地的小报密切跟踪,详细报道,使得这段经历更加令人痛苦。 在伊莉沙白二世女王劝说他们离婚后两个月,也就是1996年8月,两人达成了最后协议。戴安娜为了获得优厚的待遇,并为有权保留她在肯新顿宫的住房和王妃的头衔,同意放弃“殿下”的称号和今后对继承英国王位的要求。 在离婚之后到车祸身亡的一年中,这位人们爱戴的王妃似已接近实现她成为“人们心中的女王”的梦想。
Part III Interpret the following passage from Chinese to English. 中国国务院新闻办主任赵启正在开幕式上说,中美两国是两个伟大的国家,它们之间的关系不仅对本国十分重要,而且对世界的和平和发展也十分重要。 1972年尼克松总统第一次访问中
