CATTI二级笔译实务之英译汉(一)B

2019年CATTI二级笔译英译汉真题及参考答案【第一篇】So where there is financial connection, we see that rapid improvements in quality of life can quickly follow. In our modern context, there are several important channels to achieving this greater financial connectivity. I want to highlight two today: increased capital mobility and increased financial inclusion.First, enabling capital to flow more freely. Allowing capital to flow across borders can help support inclusive growth. Right now, foreign direct investment —FDI — is only 1.9 percent of GDP in developing countries. Before the global financial crisis, it was at 2.5 percent. Making progress on major infrastructure needs will require capital flows to rise again and to be managed safely.Greater openness to capital flows can also bring down the cost of finance, improve the efficiency of the financial sector, and allow capital to support productive investments and new jobs.Challenges that come with opening up capital markets. Thankfully, we know from experience the elements that are required for success. These include sound financial regulation, transparent rules for investment, and attention to fiscal sustainability.We also need increased financial inclusion. A few numbers: close to half of the adult population in low and middle-income Asia-Pacific economies do not have a bank account. Less than 10 percent have ever borrowed from a financial institution.And yet, we know that closing the finance gap is an “economic must-have” for nations to thrive in the 21st century. IMF analysis shows that if the least financially inclusive countries in Asia narrowed the finance gap to the level of Thailand — an emerging market economy — the poverty rate in those countries could be reduced by nearly 4 percent.How can we get there? In part, through policies that enable more women and rural citizens to access financial services. The financial gender gap for women in developing countries is about 9 percent and has remained largely unchanged since 2011.There is no silver bullet, but we know that fintech can play a catalyzing role.In Cambodia, for example, strong public-private partnerships in supporting mobile finance has led to a tripling in the number of micro-financial institutions since 2011. These institutions have now provided loans to over 2 million new borrowers, representing nearly 20 percent of the adult population. Many of these citizens had never had a bank account. Now they can save for the future and perhaps even start a business of their own.These are ideas that can work everywhere. But countries have to be willing to partner and learn from each other.That is one of the major reasons why last October, the IMF and World Bank launched the Bali Fintech Agenda. The agenda lays out key principles — from developing financial markets to safeguarding financial integrity — that can help each nation as it strives for greater financial inclusion.【第一篇参考答案】哪里形成了金融联系，当地的生活质量就会很快改善。

The Catti II Practical Translation exam has been a crucial milestone in my career. In this article, I would like to share my personal experience and insights on this challenging yet rewarding process.The Preparation Process:To excel in the Catti II Practical Translation exam, I dedicated countless hours to improving my language proficiency.

I had to ensure that the translated text retained the original meaning while adhering to the target language's style and conventions.Strategies and Techniques:To overcome these challenges, I developed several strategies and techniques. First and foremost, I always read the entire text thoroughly before starting the translation process. This enabled me to grasp the context and identify any potential linguistic difficulties. Additionally, I made use of reference materials, such as dictionaries and glossaries, to ensure accurate translations.The Importance of Cultural Competence:Cultural competence is paramount in translation. It involves not only understanding the language but also the cultural context behind it. I immersed myself in Chinese culture, regularly reading Chinese literature, watching Chinese films, and engaging in conversationswith native speakers. This allowed me to understand the subtleties and nuances that would have otherwise been lost in translation.Conclusion:The Catti II Practical Translation exam has been a transformative experience in my journey to becoming a skilled translator.

翻译二级笔译实务2013年05月Section Ⅰ English-Chinese Translation1. For more than a decade, archaeologists and his（江南博哥）torians have been studying the contents of a ninth-century Arab dhow that was discovered in 1998 off Indonesia's Belitung Island. The sea-cucumber divers who found the wreck had no idea it eventually would be considered one of the most important maritime discoveries of the late 20th century.The dhow was carrying a rich cargo—60,000 ceramic pieces and an array of gold and silver works—and its discovery has confirmed how significant trade was along a maritime silk road between Tang Dynasty China and Abbasid Iraq. It also has revealed how China was mass-producing trade goods even then and customizing them to suit the tastes of clients in West Asia."Shipwrecked: Tang Treasures and Monsoon Winds," at the new, lotus-shaped Art Science Museum designed by Moshe Safdie, presents items from the Belitung wreck. Curated by the Asian Civilisations Museum here and the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery in Washington, the show is expected to travel to museums around the world over the next five to six years."This exhibition tells us a story about an extraordinary moment in globalization," said Julian Raby, director of the Smithsonian's Freer Gallery of Art and Arthur M. Sackler Gallery. "It brings tolife the tale of Sinbad sailing to China to make his fortune. It shows us that the world in the ninth century was not as fragmented as we assumed. There were two great export powers: the Tang in the east and the Abbasid based in Baghdad."Until the Belitung find, historians had thought that Tang China traded primarily through the land routes of Central Asia, mainly on the Silk Road. Ancient records told of Persian fleets sailing the Southeast Asian seas but no wrecks had been found, until the Belitung dhow. Its cargo confirmed that a huge volume of trade was taking place along a maritime route, said Heidi Tan, a curator at the Asian Civilizations Museum and a curator of the exhibition.Mr. Raby said: "The size of the find gives us a sense of two things: a sense of China as a country already producing things on an industrialized scale and also a China that is no longer producing ceramics to bury." He was referring to the production of burialpottery like camels and horses, which was banned in the late eighth century. "Instead, kilns looked for other markets and they started producing tableware and they built an export market."正确答案：自从1998年在印度尼西亚勿里洞岛附近发现了一艘9世纪阿拉伯三角帆船的残骸以来，考古学家和历史学家一直在研究沉船上的出水文物。

2021年下半年CATTI二级笔译实务真题(总分：4.00，做题时间：180分钟)一、英译汉(总题数：2，分数：50.00)1. A spectre haunts this book—the spectre of Europe. Just as the 700 pages of Toey Blair's autobiography could not escape the shadow of Iraq, so the 700 pages of David Cameron's memoir are destined to be read through a single lens: Brexit.For all its detailed accounts of coalition talks with the leader of the liberal Democrats or Syria debates with Barack Obama, Brexit is the story. Cameron acknowledges as much, writing several times that he goes over the events that led to the leave vote of 2016 every day, "over and over again. Reliving and rethinking the decisions, rerunning alternatives andwhat-might-have-beens." Later he writes: "My regrets about what had happened went deep. I knew then that they would never leave me. And they never have."It's this which gives the book its narrative arc, one it shares with Blair's. Both tell the story of a man whose previously charmed path to success is suddenly interrupted, running into a catastrophe that will haunt him to his last breath. The development is the same in both cases, a series of consecutive victories-winrung his party's leadership, rebranding and modernising that party to appeal to the centre ground, reaching Downing Street, winning re-election-only to make a decision that will wreak lasting havoc.Cameron offers the same defence for Brexit that Blair gave for Iraq: yes, things might have turned out disastrously, but my mistake was honest, I acted in good faith, I only did what I truly believed was right.Which is not to say that the memoir is not self-critical. On the contrary, Cameron scolds himself throughout and not only on Brexit. He writes that he often misses the wood for the trees, getting lost in policy detail and failing "to see the bigger, emotional picture" .Nevertheless, his memoir reminds you why Cameron dominated British politics for so long. The prose is, like him, smooth and efficient. The chapter describing the short life and death of the Camerons' severely disabled son, Ivan, is almost unbearably moving. With admirable honesty, Cameron admits that the period of mourning did not only follow his son's death but his birth, "trying to come to terms with the difference between the child you expected and longed for and the reality that you now face". What had, until then, been a charmed life was interrupted by the deep heartbreak.（分数：1.00）填空项1:__________________2. A new United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) report, jointly produced with the International Resources Panel (国际资源小组), says that a type of unbridled international trade is having a damaging effect not only on rainforests but the entire planet. The report, which called for a raft of new Earth-friendly trade rules, found that the extraction of natural resources could spark water shortages, drive animals to extinction and accelerate climate change-all of which would be ruinous to the global economy.The economic fallout of COVID-19 is just an overture to what we would see if the Earth's natural systems break down. We have to make sure that our global trade policies protect the environment not only for the sake of our planet but also for the long-term health of our economies.With the demand for natural resources set to double by 2060, the report called on policy makers to embrace what is known as a "circular" economic model. That would see businesses use fewer resources, recycle more and extend the life of their products. It would also put an onus on consumers to buy less, save energy and repair things that are broken instead of throwing them directly.While the circular model could have "economic implications" for countries that depend on natural resources, it would give rise to new industries devoted to recycling and repairing. Overall, the report predicts a greener economic model would boost growth by 8 per cent by 2060. There's this idea out there that we have to log, mine, and drill our way to prosperity. But that's not true. By embracing a circular economy and reusing material, we can still drive economic growth while protecting the planet for future generations.Some countries, both in the developed and developing world, have embraced the concept of a circular economy. But the report said international trade agreements can play an important role in making those systems more common. It called on the World Trade Organization, which has 164 member countries, to take the environment into consideration when setting regulations. It also recommends that regional trade pacts promote investment in planet-friendly industries, eliminate "harmful" subsidies, like those for fossil fuels, and avoid undercutting global environmental accords.Re-orienting the global environment isn't an easy job. There are a lot of vested interests we have to contend with. But with the Earth's population expected to reach almost 10 billion by 2050, we need to find ways to relieve the pressure on the planet.（分数：1.00）填空项1:__________________二、汉译英(总题数：2，分数：50.00)3. 北京市妇女联合会(Beijing Women's Federation)是北京地区各族各界妇女的群众组织，也是中华全国妇女联合会的地方组织。
