2. 环境话题是历年口译考试的热点话题之一,今年的环保话题的重点在于低碳(low

carbon)二字。低碳绝对是当下社会最为时尚的词汇,因为它涉及到经济涉及到社会涉及到民生的方方面面,从京都议定书以来,碳排放量就一直是环境问题的一个关键点,口译考试一直热衷于考察经济和环境等话题,因此与低碳的相关词汇大家要做好积累。

  在全球暖化(global warming)导致的气候变化(climate change)的威胁之下,全球正直面低碳挑战(low-carbon challenge),因此,发展低碳经济,减少碳排放(carbon emission reduction),倡导低碳生活方式不但势在必行,而且是我们每一个地球人都必须重视和行动起来的头等大事。  1.低碳 Low-Carbon  2. 低碳经济 Low-Carbon Economy(LCE)

  A Low-Carbon Economy (LCE) or Low-Fossil-Fuel Economy (LFFE) is a concept that refers to an economy which has a minimal output of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions into the biosphere, but specifically refers to the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide.  3. 低碳生活 Low-Carbon Life  相关英语表达见如下例句:  (1)A one-year carbon emission reduction program proposed by China's Ministry of Environmental Protection (MEP) was started here Wednesday, on World Earth Day, to encourage citizens nationwide to adjust their lifestyle. and live a "low-carbon" lifestyle. A low-carbon lifestyle. covers many aspects of modern life, such as transportation, home heating, and holiday travel, which can be conducted in a way that gives the maximum reduction of personal carbon emissions.   (2)As the Copenhagen Climate Conference is drawing near, more and more debate about low-carbon lifestyle. come forth.   (3)Just this year, the low-carbon lifestyle, or Lifestyle. of Health and Sustainability (LOHAS), suddenly became trendy in China, particularly among young urbanites, Lin said.   与“低碳生活方式”相关的说法还有“低碳生活”,即 low-carbon life,相关搭配就是 lead a low-carbon life,因为“低碳经济”提出的大背景是全球气候变暖对人类生存和发展的严峻挑战,因此,“低碳生活方式”还可以表达为 climate-friendly lifestyles  4. 碳足迹,即 carbon footprint。简单地说,碳足迹是用来衡量我们在日常生活中消耗的二氧化碳的一种方式。无论是开车上班、乘飞机旅行,还是使用电灯、电脑,我们都消耗石油、煤和天然气等化石燃料。这些化石燃料在燃烧时,会排放出诸如二氧化碳之类导致地球变暖的温室气体。对于 carbon footprint,维基百科有如下定义:A carbon footprint is "the total set of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions caused by an organization, event or product". For simplicity of reporting, it is often expressed in terms of the amount of carbon dioxide, or its equivalent of other GHGs, emitted. 相关表达见如下例句:A new purpose-built office complex that will offer eco-friendly accommodation across 66,250 square feet is under construction in Wales. It is reported that the Cardiff Waterside project, entitled 3 Assembly Square, forms part of a £140 million construction project and will aim to offer business in the area an environment that has a lower carbon footprint than traditional office space. 上述句子的背景是,英国政府成立了一个 The Low Carbon Building Programme (LCBP),即低碳建筑计划,维基百科解释说,LCBP is a Government programme in the United Kingdom administered by BERR (formerly the DTI). It offers grants towards the cost of installing domestic microgeneration technologies and larger scale distributed generation installations for public buildings and businesses, provided energy conservation standards are also met.  5. 低碳技术,即 low-carbon technology,这是发展低碳经济,倡导低碳生活的关键之关键,相关例句如下:The Carbon Trust today launched a new 10m pounds low carbon technology investment joint venture to help UK companies develop new low carbon technologies in China. The new joint venture is a partnership with the Carbon Trust and the China Energy Conservation Investment Corporation (CECIC) to develop and deploy low carbon technologies in China.专家指出,低碳技术将成为国家核心竞争力的一个标志——谁掌握了先进的低碳技术,谁就拥有了核心竞争力。低碳技术的面很广,

大的技术类型包括节能技术、无碳和低碳能源技术、二氧化碳捕捉与埋存技术,还包括人类可以利用、可以展望到的低碳技术,如核能、风能、太阳能、生物质能、二氧化碳捕捉埋存等相关技术,其中的关键词就是低碳能源(low-carbon energy),如 The world will need to spend an additional $10.5 trillion in the next two decades on energy efficiency and low-carbon energy to avoid runaway climate change, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA)。  6. 低碳发展,即 low-carbon development/growth,经济发展的一种全新概念与模式。请看如下句子:China has issued a report saying the country is expected to realize by 2050 a low carbon development, featuring low energy demand and carbon dioxide output.  7.低碳社会 low-carbon society  低碳社区 low carbon community  低碳城市 low-carbon city  低碳世界 low-carbon world  低碳开发区 low carbon development zone  如下述例句:One example of this is the Low Carbon Development Zones being discussed by the EU and China. The Zones, piloted in a small number of Chinese cities and provinces, could both support China’s transition to a low carbon economy and accelerate the development and deployment of low carbon goods, technologies and services to EU, Chinese and global markets.  低碳旅游 Low-Carbon Tour  低碳城市化道路 Low-Carbon urbanization way  碳 Carbon  二氧化碳 Carbon dioxide  二氧化碳排放 the output of the carbon dioxide  二氧化碳浓度 Atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide  碳减排Carbon emission reduction  碳排放标准 Standard for carbon dioxide emission  碳排放责任 Liability for carbon dioxide emission  越境碳污染 Trans-frontier carbon dioxide pollution  一氧化碳 Carbon monoxide

3. 中国的对外关系这一话题是翻译考试需要注意的话题之一,其中的中美关系是考试的重点。总体来看,涉及到中美关系的考查段落难度不是很大,原因是有些固定的说法和套话,比如坚持三个联合公报、立足当前、放眼长远等等,所以只要做好梳理和记忆就行。

中美关系中涉及到的常见表述:

2010年 4月墨西哥湾爆发漏油事故 the Gulf oil spill of April 2010

6月 16日,墨西哥湾原油泄漏事件进入第 58天,对这条漫长海岸线上的居民而言,这一天意味着“黑色夏日”的开始。由于英国石油公司(BP :British Petroleum)封堵断裂油管的多次尝试宣告失败,8月份减压井工程完工前,漏油恐难得到遏制。一幕现实版的生态灾难片才刚刚拉开序幕。美国司法部长埃里克·霍尔德也于当天宣布,联邦政府已对墨西哥湾漏油事件展开刑事和民事调查。Such oil spill has created an environmental catastrophe unparalleled in US history as tens of millions of gallons of have spewed into the Gulf of Mexico ecosystem.

The oil will penetrate into habitats that it’s difficult to get the oil out of.油污会蔓延到人们不易接近的生物栖息地,从而难以清理。Eventually, oil does degrade.

5. 世博会成功举办的意义是秋季口译考试的热点,大家需要格外关注。特别是世博会带来的经济效益和文化影响力。下面的段落希望大家熟读、其中的长句希望大家熟记。

  Duration: May 1 to Oct 31, 2010  Theme:Better City, Better Life  Sub-themes: Blending of diverse cultures in the city, Economic prosperity in the city, Innovation of science and technology in the city, Remodeling of communities in the city, Rural-urban Interaction  Goal: To attract the participation of 200 countries and international organizations and 70 million visitors  Significance of hosting an Expo  Everything begins with the World Expo. As a top event of mankind at a peaceful time, it records the contemporary civilization and looks to future development. Through the inclusive World Expo, new technologies, products, ideas, knowledge and cultures can be exchanged among different countries.  (I) Relevance to science and technology: driving scientific and technological innovation  As a result of the progressing science and technology driven by the Industrial Revolution, the World Expo has become a trend-setter for contemporary technologies and promotes the application of modern science and technology into everyday life. Many new technologies and products made their debut in the World Expo before going public: it was through the World Expo that people got to know steam engine, sewing machine, rubber, submarine cable, telephone, TV and automobile and got familiar with computer science, public network and digitalized economy, human genome research, modern biotechnology, life science, nanometer technology and modern digital image technology etc. For example, the Eiffel Tower constructed for the 1889 Paris Expo became a world famous landmark, and the stone taken from the moon by American astronauts became an appealing exhibit in the 1970 Osaka Expo. The World Expo is a combination of scientific spirit, ideas, achievements, power and wisdom. Seeking truth, facts and laws can help get mankind closer to the objectivity and law of nature.  (II) Relevance to economy: promoting the industrial upgrade of the host city  Holding a World Expo can bring together all kinds of production factors in one area and at a certain time to optimize the allocation of economic resources and speed up the long-term development of the area. That has been the basic motivation for most of the World Expos staged. The phenomenon of "Expo Economy" is divided into three parts: firstly, economic activities directly caused by the Expo; secondly, economic activities centering on the use of Expo resources; thirdly, as a result of the Expo, the developmental environment of the surrounding areas of the host city can be improved, and related economy-boosting activities can be promoted.

  The World Expo in 1933 transformed Chicago into one of the centers of American cities. Urban decision makers and planners in every city in the world came to know: the World Expo is a rare opportunity to transform. a city, namely to incorporate World Expo design into the master plan for the city and take the cultural and trade exchanges at the World Expo as a necessary step toward a transformed city.(略读)  The Osaka World Expo 1970 made a wonderful facelift to the local transportation, high-end residential communities, business facilities, tourism and cultural exchange facilities. With the Expo as a beginning, a Kansai city cluster with Osaka at the heart began to take shape along the Pacific Coast, which later became one of the top six city clusters in the world. (略读)  The Seville World Expo 1992 in Spain pushed forward the development of the under-developed southern region of the country, narrowing the north-south gap and ensuring a balanced development of its national economy. Meanwhile, the establishment of a high-tech industrial cluster in Andalucia has lifted the local comprehensive strength and high-tech industry to a new height. (略读)  Hanover World Expo in Germany in 2000 caused a loss to the operator, but brought a big profit for the whole country: it created 100,000 jobs for Germany, marked up German international reputation, improved the investment environment in Germany, expanded domestic consumption demand and earned extra tax revenue. (略读)  (III) Relevance to politics: building up national image of the host country  As a global event, the World Expo is inclusive both geographically and in terms of contents. Because there are no limits for polity, region, ethnicity, religion and cultural and economic level, the participating countries can be from any part of the world, thus giving the host country an opportunity to communicate itself and make new friends at home. In the meantime, the participating countries present colorful and varied products that are the most distinctive and latest in their own countries, thus enabling the host country to see and learn about a lot of new things at a lower cost. What’s more, the World Expo stands for a rare occasion for the host city to upgrade its municipal construction. Apart from a gathering of friends and guests from around the world, the World Expo also means numerous business opportunities, giving a new shot to the tertiary industry of the host city. More importantly, the World Expo is a window for the host country to communicate and promote itself and display its comprehensive national strength. It is never a surprise that every World Expo attracts so many candidates for bidding.  Fundamentally, the first modern World Expo held in the UK in 1851 was to show its achievements in the Industrial Revolution and its overriding position among all the powers.  America’s attitude toward the World Expo deserves research. In the mid-19th century, America was eager to project itself as a rising young nation. So in 1853, New York hosted the second World Expo. From then to the 1980s, America hosted 10 World Expos, the most among all countries. However, America quitted BIE in April 2002. (略读)  Germany and Japan are a different story. The two countries are bound up in hosting the World Expo in the hope of going out of the shadow as defeated countries. Thus their Expos are very political. Japan held its first World Expo in 1970 in Osaka, where people,

societies and companies gathered together to put on a very orderly World Expo that ignited their pride and confidence as a major power in the world. The visitors to that Expo reached a record high. After its successful bidding for the 2000 World Expo, German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder made it clear that Germany must take its first World Expo as an opportunity to show the world a unified Germany, an open culture and its modern economic zones. (略读)  (IV) Relevance to culture: facilitating the fusion of cultures in the world  The World Expo is an event for peace, friendship and harmony. It binds people together, regardless of their ethnicities, religions and nationalities. It is deeply rooted in the idea of “Comprehension, Communication, Congregation and Cooperation”. The most important mission of the World Expo is to bring together contemporary civilizations; put together those singular, dispersed and rough produces in the same category under a selected theme and give them an improved, systemic and even artistic expression; bridge common concerns of people around the world and their solutions and then display them so as to provide food for thought.  The World Expo is a symbol of cultural diversity and cultural convergence. When a city, standing for a nation and country, solemnly hosts a World Expo and engage in spiritual pursuit, civil aspirations, cultural thinking and pledge fulfillment, it need a renewed city spirit; when a city, with its advanced productive forces and culture, urban history, urban will and common wisdom, makes great efforts in preparing for a World Expo, it often extends the city spirit to the future; when a city receives tens of millions of people to have an interactive inspection of world economy, society and culture and when the it intensively displays economic ideas, scientific and technological innovations, humanistic considerations, cultural creativity, social trends and renewed time and space, the city spirit is often lifted to a new height.  场馆 Pavilion  重点单词和表述  Shanghai Expo/ The World Exposition Shanghai China 2010上海世博会  expo garden 世博园  China pavilion 中国馆  theme pavilion 主题馆  foreign national pavilion 外国馆  stand-alone pavilion 独立展馆  corporate joint pavilion 企业联合馆  African Joint Pavilion 非洲联合馆  trial opening/operation/run 试运行  exhibition hall 展台  booth 展会上隔开的小间  four pavilions along the central axis 一轴四馆  emblem and mascot 会徽与吉祥物  official mascot 官方吉祥物  Expo centre 世博中心  Expo performance centre 世博演艺中心  Expo Shanghai online 网上世博会

6. 世界经济危机是当前比较热的一个话题,并且每年的口译考试基本会出现经济相关方面的一些文章,同学们对于世界经济健康复苏这一话题要加以关注。

  段落表述  第一,继续合作战胜危机。在全球化背景下,各国的经济相互依存、相互促进,各国的政策相互影响、相互作用。只有实现全球经济复苏,才能巩固一国经济复苏。过去一段时间,各国携手应对,减轻了国际金融危机的严重损害,阻止了可能出现的较大衰退。当前,国际金融危机尚未结束,经济复苏的基础还不牢固。避免复苏过程的曲折,降低复苏中存在的风险,需要各国继续合作。  First, we should continue to work together and prevail over the crisis, The storm has not subsided, and we have to continue working together like passengers on a same boat. In a globalized world, the economies of all countries are interdependent and mutually reinforcing. The policies of one country can well impact those of others. Only when global economic recovery is achieved can the recovery of national economies be secured. The recent joint response by various countries has reduced the severe impact of the international financial crisis and prevented a serious recession that might have otherwise occurred. The international financial crisis is not over yet and the foundation for economic recovery is still weak. Continued cooperation among countries is needed to avoid twists and turns and reduce risks in the course of recovery. The international community should increase coordination and cooperation in macro-economic policies, identify the right direction and priorities of their economic policies, and withdraw stimulus policies at the right time and right pace in order to bring about a full recovery of the world economy at an early date.

  第二,推动市场更加开放。国际社会应当坚决反对各种形式的保护主义,把各方的郑重承诺转化为实际行动,继续推进贸易和投资自由化、便利化,推动多哈回合谈判早日达成更加合理、均衡的结果,使国际市场更加开放。  Second, we should promote more open market, Li said. This is the only way forward in our continued response to the crisis. Opening-up can be both bilateral and multilateral. It helps increase cooperation, bolster development and promote prosperity. In this sense, one plus one is, more often than not, bigger than two. Trade protectionist practice will only exacerbate the economic crisis, slow down the recovery process and ultimately harm the interests of the very countries who apply such measures.  第三,促进世界平衡发展。国际社会应当从全局和长远考虑,以积极的态度拓展发展空间、促进平衡发展,进一步加强南南合作、南北合作,完善促进平衡发展的国际机制,加大对发展中国家的援助力度,如期实现联合国千年发展目标,使发展成果惠及各国人民。  Third, we should promote balanced development of the world, Li said. The goal of opening-up is to achieve development, and development is what we need in order to improve people's livelihood. We should not forget that one billion people on this planet are still suffering from poverty and hunger. Only by helping developing countries out of economic backwardness can we ensure enough food and clothing for their people, achieve the goal of poverty reduction. And only by tapping the potential demand of developing countries can we expand the global market and reduce unemployment around the world.  第四,携手应对重大挑战。这是促进世界经济健康复苏和持续发展的紧迫课题。在气候变化、能源资源安全、粮食安全、公共卫生安全、重大自然灾害等全球性挑战面前,没有一个国家可以独善其身,没有一个国家可以摆脱责任,国际社会应当协调行动。  Fourth, we should jointly tackle major challenges. This is our urgent task if we want to ensure sound recovery and sustained development of the world economy. No country is immune, nor can it shirk its responsibility from tackling global challenges like climate change, energy and resources security, food security, public health security and major natural disasters. The international community ought to coordinate actions to meet the challenges. In the fight against climate change, countries need to actively follow up on the Copenhagen Accord, act in unison and be forward-looking.  第五,改善全球治理结构。通过改进和完善已有架构,形成一个更有利于兼顾公平和效率的全球治理体系,以反映国际政治经济格局的变化,已成为各方共识。全球治理结构的改善,应当体现平等参与、合作包容的原则;需要优先增加发展中国家的代表性和发言权,尊重各种不同发展模式的选择;需要更好地发挥联合国和相关机构的基础性作用,发挥二十国集团的建设性作用。  Fifth, we should improve the structure of global governance, Li said. If we are to overcome the crisis, open up markets, promote balanced development and address major challenges, we need not only more consensus and actions, but also reliable institutional guarantee. It has become a consensus of all parties to improve current structures and develop a more fair and efficient structure of the global governance that reflects changes in the global political and economic landscape. The principle of equal participation and inclusive cooperation should be followed in improving global governance. It is imperative to raise the voice and representation of developing countries. Choice of different development models should be respected. The primary role of the

“Saving a life belittles anything else!”

8. 2010年 5月 22日,美国国务卿希拉里·克林顿(Hillary Rodham Clinton)在上海世博会美国馆招待会上发表讲话。讲话中她再次引用了一句诗:山重水复疑无路,柳暗花明又一村。

演讲原文是: There is a poem from the Southern Song Dynasty that reads: "After endless mountains and rivers that leave doubt whether there is a path out, suddenly one encounters the shade of a willow, bright flowers and a lovely village."

这里“山重水复”可以简单说成 endless mountains and rivers,而“疑无路”这三个字可以说是比较难翻译的一个地方,上文的译本中作了一个主语的转换,将“怀疑”的主语人省去了,用 leave doubt that这个词组来表示,就使得译文简化了很多,不然一定要添译进去一个“人”的主体,译文很可能就比较冗长:After trudging through endless mountains and rivers,one might begin to doubt whether there is a path out。同样,“柳暗花明又一村”这一句也简化成了三个意象:willow,flower,village。下面是希拉里在上海世博会美国馆的讲话全文,标红的部分请大家注意积累和翻译。比如:描写清明上河图的一段话、希拉里在上海世博会美国馆的讲话全文:Establishing an American presence at this Expo worthy of our great country was quite a journey.

这一届世界博览会建立美国展区,为了展现我们伟大国家的风采,走过了一段很不容易的路程。There is a poem from the Southern Song Dynasty that reads: "After endless mountains and rivers that leave doubt whether there is a path out, suddenly one encounters the shade of a willow, bright flowers and a lovely village." Well, I am very pleased that we have finally arrived at our lovely village.

南宋时期的一首诗写道,山重水复疑无路,柳暗花明又一村。现在我们最终来到我们可爱的村庄,我感到非常高兴。This was a real team effort, a partnership that brought together our government, the private sector, the Chinese-American community, and so many friends and supporters. So, let me offer a few thank-yous.

To Ambassador Jon Huntsman and Consul General Bea Camp, and all the men and women of the U.S. Mission in China, we thank you.

驻华大使洪博培和总领事康碧翠以及美国驻中国使团的全体男女工作人员,我们感谢你们。To Ken Jarett and the board, staff, and volunteers of the USA Pavilion, including our student ambassadors who represent not just the welcoming spirit of our Pavilion, but the openness of our country. And to Ambassador Elizabeth Bagley and her deputy, Kris Balderston, and our corporate partners -- your generosity and commitment has made all of this possible. And I am very grateful to each and every one of you.

感谢肯·贾勒特及美国馆董事会、工作人员和志愿者,包括我国的学生大使。学生大使不仅表示我国展馆对来访者的欢迎,而且也代表了我国的开放精神。感谢伊丽莎白·巴格利大使和她的副手克里斯·鲍尔德斯滕。还要感谢我们的公司伙伴。你们慷慨解囊,信心十足,才使这一切成为可能。我十分感谢你们每一位。And finally, I want to express our deep appreciation to our Chinese hosts. It is a great honor to have with us Ambassador Zhang, Vice Foreign Minister Cui, Vice Finance Minister Li, and Vice Mayor Tang here with us this evening. Earlier today I had the privilege of visiting the China Pavilion, with its sweeping panorama of a great nation. The ancient Riverside scroll, which depicts another period of dramatic change and development, has been transformed through the magic of technology into a vivid symbol of the new China. This entire Expo, the largest in history, is a testament to the hospitality and energy of the Chinese people. And all around us we see that the glory of the past is matched by the dynamism of the present and the promise of the future.

最后,我希望对我们的中国东道主表示诚挚的谢忱。张大使、崔副外长、李副部长和唐副市长今晚也在座,我们感到非常荣幸。今天我荣幸地参观了中国馆,欣赏一个伟大国家的全景画卷。古老的清明上河图描述了另一个时期巨大的变迁和发展,通过技术的魔力转眼间展现了新中国生机勃勃的形象。整个世界博览会以有史以来最大的规模,体现了中国人民热情好客的美德和能量。在我们四周,随处可见历史的辉煌与现代的活力及未来的希望交相辉映。The shape of that future depends, to a significant degree, on the evolving relationship between the United States and China. If our relations are defined by win-win solutions rather than zero-sum rivalries, we will thrive and prosper together. Now, we may not always agree on every issue, but we should seek and seize opportunities such as this Expo to build greater understanding between our peoples.

未来的希望在很大程度上取决于美国与中国关系的发展。双方的关系如果以实现双赢而不是互不相容的对抗为特征,我们就能共同繁荣昌盛。目前,双方可能无法在每一个问题上一贯达成一致意见,但是双方应该寻求机会,抓住机会,促进两国人民之间的理解。这一届世博会就是一个例证。

This USA Pavilion embodies many of the qualities that make my country a vibrant and prosperous nation: innovation, sustainability, diversity, the free exchange of ideas. And it is a model of environmental responsibility. And I am proud to announce that the Pavilion will be carbon neutral for the entire duration of the Expo.

美国馆体现了创新、可持续性、多样性与自由交流思想等使美国生机勃勃、繁荣昌盛的诸多特性。美国馆是环保责任的典范。我很高兴地宣布,在世博会整个展出期间,美国馆将实现碳中和。700,000 people have already visited this pavilion. And one of the most moving displays is the tribute to the millions of Chinese Americans who have contributed so much to the cultural and economic development of the United States. From Yo-Yo Ma to I.M. Pei to Commerce Secretary Gary Locke and Energy Secretary Chu, Chinese-Americans have achieved great success in business, government, the arts, sciences and sports. And, to that end, I was pleased to hear that the Buffalo Bills have recently drafted the first Chinese-American to play in the NFL.

目前已有 70多万人参观了美国馆。美国馆最感人的展品之一是,赞颂为美国文化和经济发展做出如此众多贡献的数百万美国华裔的专题。从马友友到贝聿铭,从商务部长骆家辉到能源部长朱棣文, 美国华裔在工商业、政府、艺术、科技和体育等领域都取得了极大的成功。说到这里,我很高兴地获悉,布法罗·比尔队最近吸收了第一位美国华裔参加美国橄榄球大联盟的赛事。But we also celebrate those Chinese-Americans whose names are not well known to us. And thousands have sent photographs and testimonials documenting the Chinese experience in the United States. And it represents a true pageant of American life.

但我们还赞颂那些不知名的美国华裔。数以千计的美国华裔送来了照片和纪念物,记载华人在美国的经历,成为美国生活绚丽壮观的真实写照。I.M. Pei, the great architect who built the John F. Kennedy library in Boston, along with many other notable buildings, said that he hoped people who went to the Kennedy Library experienced "revived hope and promise for the future." And I believe all of us can see that hope and promise here, in Shanghai.

杰出的建筑师贝聿铭设计建造了波士顿的约翰·肯尼迪图书馆等许多著名的建筑。他曾说,他希望到肯尼迪图书馆参观的人 “重新燃起对未来的希望和信念”。我相信,我们大家在这里,在上海可以看到这样的希望和信念。And we have already been entertained by some of the young people who represent the future. I want to thank the Shanghai Music Conservatory string quartet that played for us during the reception. We are going to be hearing from the Parker Ossel Folish (ph) Trio, who will be playing during dinner. These are three young Americans who make their home here, in Shanghai. And then, after dinner, we will be entertained by an

You have enabled me to sleep through the night once again. Thank you all very much.

口试经验一

口译训练最基本最重要的就是记忆力训练,包括脑记和笔记。这是由口译的特点决定的——口译的过程中要边听边分析边整理,之后只有 2-3 秒的时间整理思路就要作出表达。不要指望把所有的都笔记下来,而且也不需要为了口译而去学速记。速记和口译笔记的目的并不相同,两者不能互相代替。

下面先说说脑记。我们时刻要铭记在心的是,脑记不是简单的记住所有句子,那样不现实。脑记就是理出文章的脉络。高口的材料多是简短的说明、介绍、程式性的语段,要整理出脉络其实并不难,甚至很多时候会说明,比如说“其主要表现为如下几点:……”这样有几点说几点,清楚明白。

训练脑记有下面一些方法:

[键入文字]

1,shadowing。即所谓影子练习。跟着录音说,它说什么你说什么;慢慢的在时间上做滞后处理,它说出一句话之后你再跟着说,保持一句话的距离,训练一心二用的能力。

2,paraphrase。在 shadowing一篇文章之后还要复述这篇文章的大致内容,也是训练自己的一心二用能力,同时也锻炼了归纳整理能力。

3,视译。译完之后也要做大意复述。

我一般对一篇文章的训练方法如下:

1,听一遍,不记任何笔记,扳指头记要点(使用源语言)。听完之后复述,一般情况下能把大意复述出来。此时不强求细节,因为我并没有做笔记。

2,再听一遍,训练笔记,然后复述(使用目的语)。

3,第三遍听,补充笔记,然后口译(使用目的语)。

4,复查,看有没有明显的漏洞和不清楚的词句。

这样一篇文章基本上就是挖掘干净了,一般我练过一篇文章后不会再去看它。

然后是笔记。笔记不要面面俱到,那样只能让你在最后见木不见林,翻译出来支离破碎。因为各人的笔记都会自成系统,这里只讲几个要点:

22

Page 23: soft.xp666.com · Web view练短时记忆,别人说2 句话你要重复 说9 个内容,不相干,说5~7 个,每天练五分钟即可,可以是9 家著名公司,如intel.dell,ibm,apple

[键入文字]

1,尽量使用符号。文字需要经过大脑的语言模块处理,比起符号的处理来要慢这也是为什么马路上大量使用交通符号和交通灯而不是使用汉字或者英文的原因。

2,多使用目的语做笔记,这样也能减少处理时间。但这并不绝对,看你习惯而定。一般情况下,英译汉更倾向于使用汉语记录+英语缩写。

3,把 linking words做一个分类,使用其中最短的那个代替一整类词,比如for代替 because等等。

再次强调:脑记的同时分析整理是第一位的,笔记只能做补充。

口试经验二

最重要的一点:注意平时训练的质量!有同学做真题做的不错,一到考场就不行了,

原因就在于:你训练不严格,难度不够!下面我列出一点复习的误区,请对号入座,

有的要改过来:

1 只看不听。 我在图书馆看到很多人复习口试是这样复习的,拿本教材,旁边放很多彩色笔,然后很认真的看书,划,不时还在本子上记点什么.亲爱的,考试时候是看着书翻译的吗?建议:汉到英可以看书,因为听汉语不会有听不懂的问题,英到汉的话,无论如何以听为主,边听边自己译,千万不要对着书看!

[键入文字]

2 看书慢。慢的原因是:你把口译当笔译了.看一句汉语,总对自己口译不放心,要看看参考译文.我的建议是:除非你真的翻不出来,或特别奇怪的,否则自己翻过就可以了.口译是看你是不是表达出了意思,不是要你把一点一滴细节的翻出来.

3 对自己太善良,做真题的时候,听了第一句,哎,有点难.然后不自觉的去翻答案,

然后还装着翻一遍,感觉良好...

高级口译考试评分标准详解

听力部分:

  1. 听力 Spot Dictation

  20个空,每个 1.5分,只有名、动、形、副词直接扣分,视该次考试的标准及该单词在词组中的重要程度扣分,比如,a vital element如果 vital没写,扣 0.5分,element同理,如果 a不写,不直接扣,教师在卷面做标注,比如红点,然后20个格子阅完后视标注情况整体再扣 1-3分。 不是很严重的拼写错误不扣分,比如 resistant写成 resident。 允许适当连笔书写,只要不影响老师的评改。

  2. 听力选择

Page 25: soft.xp666.com · Web view练短时记忆,别人说2 句话你要重复 说9 个内容,不相干,说5~7 个,每天练五分钟即可,可以是9 家著名公司,如intel.dell,ibm,apple

[键入文字]

  共 20题,每题 1分,共计 20分。

  3. 听力Note-taking & Gap-filling

  所听的内容文字长度为 700词左右,语速为每分钟 170词左右,听一遍。在给出的长度为 200词左右的所听内容的概述中,有 20个空白要求考生填写,每空填一个词。20格,每格 1分,答案基本是确定的,有限的,阅卷标准会给出可以接受的近义词,比如答案是 decrease,那么凡是写到下降这个意思的词,都可以考虑算对,这些词会由阅卷指导委员会给出。

  4. 听译 Sentence & Passage translation

  句子翻译每句 3分,也是整体评分,比如通读译文,大致给出是 0,1,2,3 档,这个标准与第二试的口译一致,要求给出大意,及主要的细节;要求逐字对应,不得出现严重误译,反译。举个简单例子,原文是Britain witnessed sharp increase in its criminal activities from l999 to 2003。如果译文是 1999-2003年间英国犯罪率上升了。那么基本是满分3分,不强求要把 sharp体现出来,而witness目睹了这个意思也不用很精确。如果写成 1999-2002,扣 0.5,如果没写

25

[键入文字]

出犯罪率或者犯罪案件这个概念,得分不超过 1分,因为意思都不对了。如果把 increase译成了犯罪率下降,起码扣 1分。

  段落翻译两篇,一般是 7+8分,passage的概念可以按照 2-3句句子来理解,评分标准同理。高口这个部分阅卷相对宽松,允许出现部分细节的遗漏。比如原文是 in the areas Of economy,finance,trade,shipping,insurance,realestate,六个关键词一般译出五个就肯定是满分,如果那次考试普遍得分较低,四个也可以不扣分。

  阅读部分:

  1. 阅读选择

  共 20题单项选择,每题 2.5分,共计 50分。

  2. 短文回答问题

  共三篇文章,10道题目,每道题 5分,总计 50分。

  翻译部分:

26

Page 27: soft.xp666.com · Web view练短时记忆,别人说2 句话你要重复 说9 个内容,不相干,说5~7 个,每天练五分钟即可,可以是9 家著名公司,如intel.dell,ibm,apple

[键入文字]

  翻译部分,英译中和中译英各占 50分。实行整体评分,并不精确到每句评分再加总分。阅卷者先浏览全篇译文,根据对培训时给出的各个等级 samples的理解,先大致确定哪一档次,比如 20-30,30-40,然后根据几个重点评分处,比如某长句,某几个容易出错的难词,得出是高端还是低端,比如是 30+还是 40,最后结合卷面情况,进一步确定最后得分。实际阅卷中,老师的时间很紧张,到后面卷面是否整洁易读会是很重要的因素。

  小编点评:最后的两大主观题翻译部分,果然和高考语文作文一样,卷面也是不能忽视的一个重要因素,这么一来大家其实也可以参考语文作文的考试要领,不要求就一定要有什么惊人之语,保证语句通顺,没有明显的语法错误和单词拼写错误,再加上干净整洁的卷面,整体评分就不会低到哪里去啦。

第四章 汉译英翻译重点英、汉当中语言的类型特点: 1、汉语:语意性语言,力求考究字与语意及其相关关系,注意内容的意会性,其句法特点是:主语可以由不同类别的词语担当,主语隐含、不显或无主语的情况时常可见,谓语成分比较复杂,且不受主语支配,没有人称、数、时态的变化,句与句之间多无明示逻辑关系的连接词,汉语句子看似松散,如流水般无定式可依。2、英语:语法性语言,重点研究主谓、序列及其相关词类,句子结构受形式逻辑制约,注重形式严谨,其句法特征是:主语突出,易于识别,只能由名词或名词性的词语担当,谓语绝对受主语支配,在人称和数上面必须与主语保持一致,有时态、语态和语气的变化,句与句之间都与明示逻辑关系的连接词相连,英语依法构句,形式完整而严密。英语是主语显著语,英语构建在主谓轴上,确定主谓语是成功构句、保证译文与原文功能相似、语意相符的关键。

3) 主语确定原则这一目标的实现,最直接的应该是老百姓住得更宽敞了,更舒服了。The citizens will live more spaciously and comfortably, benefiting most directly from achieving the goal.(重新确定主语)其实,撇开数学,绕过那一大堆公式,一门学科的基本思想还是可以被我们理解和欣赏的。To be frank, if we leave aside mathematics and bypass the abundant formulas, the basic principles of the discipline (of science) are understandable and appreciable.(增补主语)They cannot control who crosses their borders either physically or culturally.无论是外人入境,或是文化入侵,政府都已无能为力。(重新确定主语,宾语变主语)注:there be 句型:状语变主语They have been increasingly chagrined by Washington’s tendency to ignore the international consensus on issues ranging from the use of land mines to the Kyoto climate change treaty.从地雷禁用条款到京都防止气候变暖条约等一系列问题,美国政府总是对国际舆论置若罔闻,使得这些(倒戈)国家越来越失望/懊恼。

4) 谓语最小化原则今年的亚太经济贸易合作组织会议将主要侧重两个方面:一是加强亚太经合组织成员之间的合作,共同应对可能出现的经济衰退,重树信心;二是继续推进亚太经合组织贸易投资自由化进程,推动世界贸易组织尽早开始新一轮谈判。The APEC meeting in this year will focus mainly on two aspects: one is on strengthening the cooperation among all APEC members to cope with the possible economic recession with rebuilt-up confidence; the other is on promoting the liberalization of trade and investment among all APEC members for the start of a new

The manual worker is usually quite at ease in any company. This is partly explained by the fact that people of all income groups go together to the same schools.体力劳动者在任何场合通常都相当自在。收入档次不同的人上同一所学校,这个事实多少说明了这一点。 其它词如: illustrate demonstrate represent embody

for this opportunity to address the topic of peace and development, and pay my high respect for all the representatives present at the meeting.

三、真题练习1、练习 1尊敬的新西兰贵宾,女士们、先生们,我能在此为新西兰贵宾主持隆重的欢迎仪式深感荣幸和愉快。中国和新西兰相距遥远,但两国人民长期以来一直友好交往。这些年里,我们在政治、经济、文化、教育领域进行了真诚的、卓有成效的合作。Distinguished guests from New Zealand, ladies and gentlemen, I feel honored and pleased to be here to preside over this grand welcome ceremony for the honorable New Zealand guests. It's true that it's a long way from China to New Zealand, but the peoples from the two nations have long been friendly to each other. During the years, we have conducted sincere and fruitful co-operations in the fields of politics, economy, culture, education and so on.

随着两国人民之间交往的日趋频繁,我,作为一名中国学者,有机会多次访问新西兰,在那儿学习,讲学和交流。新西兰美丽的自然风景、充足的阳光和宜人的气候、安静舒适的学习环境以及和蔼友善的人民给我留下了深刻的印象。With more and more exchanges between the two peoples, I, as a Chinese scholar, have had opportunities to visit New Zealand many times, studying, lecturing and exchanging ideas. I'm deeply impressed by her beautiful scenery, plenty of sunshine, agreeable climate, quiet and comfortable study environment, as well as its people who are kind and friendly.

2、练习 2尊敬的代表们、女士们、先生们:我很高兴能代表新西兰政府欢迎各位来到新西兰政治文化金融中心。值此第二届环境保护部长级非正式会议召开之际,我想对你们所有的人,尊敬的代表们和相关国际环保组织的代表们,表示最热诚的问候。 Distinguished delegates, Ladies and Gentlemen, on behalf of New Zealand, I take the pleasure in welcoming you to the cultural, administrative, economic and financial center of New Zealand. I would like to extend my warmest greeting to all of you, delegates and representatives of international organizations involved in environmental protection, upon the opening of the Second Informal Meeting of the Environment Ministers.//

环境保护非常重要。这是政府优先考虑的事项。为此,新西兰政府已增加了对环境保护的预算拨款并给环保部以机会来动员国际性支持。仅在过去四年里,政府对环保的预算拨款已增加了两倍多。Environmental protection is very crucial. It is the priority of the government's agenda, In this sense, the Government of New Zealand has increased budget allocations for environmental management and provided opportunity to the Ministry of Environment to mobilize international support for the sector. Only during the last four years, government's budget for environmental protection has more than tripled.

3、练习 3我为能在此设宴招待威廉斯副总统及夫人以及其他贵宾而深感荣幸和愉快。我愿借此机会

向各位来宾表示热烈的欢迎。我此时的心情可以用孔子《论语》中的一句话来表达,"有朋自远方来,不亦乐乎?"

It is my privilege and great pleasure to hold this banquet in honor of Vice President and Mrs. Williams and other distinguished guests. I would avail myself of this opportunity to extend my warm welcome to you all. A remark in "The Anlects" of Confucius best expresses what I feel now. "It is such a delight that I have friends visiting from afar!" Evidently, Vice President Williams's current visit has demonstrated his Excellency's determination to further enhance the friendly and cooperative relations between our two countries. I am deeply convinced that frequent exchanges of visits between the top government officials of the two countries are beneficial not only to the improvement of our relations, but also to the peace of and stability of the Asian-Pacific region and the world as a whole.

孔子 Confucius孟子 Mencius论语 Analects

四、中英文表达方式差异例句:Mount Tai, which is located in Shandong Province and covers an area of 360 square kilometers, (located in Shandong Province and covering an area of 369 square kilometers)

两个基本原则:主动和被动的原则表达主动,现在分词表达被动,过去分词练习:a bridge linking China with Americaa measure taken by Chinese Governmentn+being donean issue being discussedn+having doneChina having entered into the WTON+having been +doingChinese Government having beening safeguarding the interests and rights of medium-sized or small countries

五、中国古代谚语、成语、典故补充天生万物,唯人为贵Man is the most valuable among all the things that heaven fosters.

People are the most important element in the state, next are the government and grain, least is the ruler himself.

二人同心,其利断金And as a saying from The Book of Changes goes, ”If two people are of the same mind, their sharpness can cut through metal.

一乡之善士斯友一乡之善士,天下之善士斯友天下之善士。In so many different ways, we are upholding the teachings of Mencius, who said:”A good citizen in one community will befriend the other citizens of the community;a good citizen of the world will befriend the other citizens of the world.”

不登高山,不知天之高也;不临深渊,不知地之厚也。One can never be aware of the height of the sky or the depth of the earth, if he does not climb up a high mountain or look down into a deep abyss.

但愿人长久,千里共婵娟。We wigh each other a long life so as to share the beauty of this graceful moonlight, even though miles apart.

独在异乡为异客,每逢佳节倍思亲。A lonely stranger in a strange land I am cast, I miss my family all the more on every festive day.二人同心,其利断金。If two people are of the same mind, their sharpness can cut through metal.

海内存知己,天涯若比邻。A bosom friend afar brings distance near.

祸兮,福之所倚;福兮,祸之所伏。Misfortune, that is where happiness depends; happiness, that is where misfortune underlies.

举首望明月,低头思故乡。Raising my head, I see the moon so bright; withdrawing my eyes, my nostalgia comes around.

礼尚往来。往而不来,非礼也;来而不往,亦非礼也。Propriety suggests reciprocity. It is not propriety not to give but to receive, or vice versa.

两情若是长久时,又岂在朝朝暮暮。If love between both sides can last for aye, why need they stay together night and day?

路漫漫其修远兮,吾将上下而求索。The way ahead is long; I see no ending, yet high and low I’ll search with my will unbending.

敏而好学,不耻下问。77

Quick-minded and eager to learn, he is never ashamed to consult his inferiors.

天生我材必有用。Heaven has endowed me with talents for eventual use.

天时不如地利,地利不如人和。Opportunities vouchsafed by Heaven are less important than terrestrial advantages, which in turn are less important than the unity among people.

天行健,君子以自强不息。As Heaven’s movement is ever vigorous, so must a gentleman ceaselessly strive along.

无为其所不为,无欲其所不欲,如此而已矣。Don’t do what should not be done; don’t desire what should not be desired. That is all.

学而不厌,侮人不倦。Never be contented with your study; never be impatient with your teaching.

学如逆水行舟,不进则退。Learning is like rowing upstream: not to advance is to drop back.

欲穷千里目,更上一层楼。We widen our views three hundred miles by ascending one flight of stairs./Exhausting my eyes to a thousand li further, I am ascending one more story of the tower.

二、高频短句1 世界贸易组织成立于 1995年 1月 1日,其前身是关税与贸易总协定。

The World Organization (WTO), whose predecessor was the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), was established on January 1, 1995.

2 加入世界贸易组织意味着在进口政策方面要承担一些约束性的任务。这就要求中国要调整其贸易政策,并且进行经济体制改革。Joining the WTO means assuming binding obligations in respect of import policies-obligations which will necessitate an adjustment in China’s trade policies and economic restructuring.

3 中国加入世界贸易组织的意义不仅在于贸易方面,而且关系到中国将来在世界经济中所起的作用以及全球经济未来的发展方向。China’s entry into the WTO is about more than trade, it is about China’s future role in the world economy and about the future direction of the global economic development.

China has massive land, abundant natural resources, huge cheap labor, low taxation, a growing consumer market, improving infrastructure and of course, a stable social and political environment with attractive investment policies.

5 现在西方人都在谈论去东方投资。显然越来越多的外国公司纷纷涌入中国,而上海的浦东地区是人们投资的首选目的地之一。现在的问题不在于是否去东方投资,而在于何时去投资为好,如何去投资为好。In the West everybody is talking about going to the East and making an investment. Apparently a growing number of foreign firms have been pouring into China, and the Pudong area of Shanghai is among the best choices of their investment destinations. Today it is not a matter of whether to go east, but when and how.

6 海外人士在上海及其周边地区的投资近年来翻了两番。出现这一高涨不止的投资热有多种缘由。Overseas investment in Shanghai and its surrounding areas has quadrupled in recent years. There are many reasons for this rising investment fever.

7 目前在浦东的前 200家强强联姻的企业中,具有自我设计和开发能力的虽然不多,但中方大约有 200名副总经理、1000名部门经理、3000名高中级工程技术人员 、30000名熟练工人正在一边干,一边学。

Currently, among Pudong’s 200 biggest joint ventures, not many have independent designing and developing capabilities. However, on the Chinese side, about 200 deputy managing directors,1000 division managers,3000 senior and intermediate-level engineers and technologists and 30000 skilled workers have been learning on the job.

8. 美国通用汽车公司、德国巴斯夫公司、日立电器公司等一批跨国公司的高级职员在谈到他们总部的投资意图时无不坦陈,外方看中的是浦东在其全球战略中的地域优势、良好的投资环境和企业素质。When senior representatives of General Motors of the United States, BSF of Germany and Hitachi Electric of Japan talked about their investment in Pudong, they all pointed to Pudong’s geographical advantage, good investment environment and the high quality of local enterprises as Pudong’s attractions for their respective firms in their global strategy.

9. 这些企业和人才,正以其产业关联性和协作关系,最终带动长江流域乃至全国数千家企业,面向国内、国际两个市场,进行一体化生产和销售,使浦东成为溶现代中国产业世界经济主流的龙头和纽带。These enterprises and talents, through production-related association and cooperation, are expected to boost thousands of enterprises in the Yangtze River Valley, as well as in other parts of the country, engaging in integrated production and sales for both domestic and international markets. By doing so,Pudong will functions as a leader and bridge to integrate China’s modern industry with the mainstream of the world’s economy.

10.中国经济发展出现了高增长、低通胀的新局面。国民经济继续快速增长,市场物价基本稳定。China’s economic development has entered a new stage which is characteristically one of high growth and low inflation. The national economy continues to grow rapidly and market prices

12.亚太经合组织的唯一使命,就是开展经济合作,不宜把讨论的范畴扩展到社会、政治、安全等非经济领域。要坚持有所为有所不为的原则,专心致志推进经济合作。The sole mission of APEC is to promote economic cooperation. It should refrain from extending the scope of its discussions to social, political security and other non-economic fields. It is necessary to concentrate our efforts on advancing economic cooperation in a spirit of doing certain things and refraining from doing other things.

13.有人认为,深圳和香港能形成一个经济圈,说不定可以发展成为一个亚太经济中心。然而,更多的人认为,深圳应该当好内地与香港之间的桥梁。深圳正在借助香港的优势发展自己。经过 15年的发展,深圳已逐步发展成为一个国际商埠。Some people hold the view that Shenzhen and Hong Kong may form an economic zone and become a new economic center in the Asia-Pacific region. However, more people are of the opinion that Shenzhen should continue to play its role as a bridge linking Hong Kong and the mainland. Shenzhen is making good use of the advantages of Hong Kong’s economy to develop itself. Over the last 15 years, Shenzhen has gradually developed into an international commercial port.

三、口译练习●In a recent television interview the Malaysian prime Minister expressed his deep concern about economic situation in his country. Malaysia has undergone financial difficulties from the combined impact of the world financial crisis, decline in world oil prices and its own prolonged recession. The direct reason for those difficulties was that investors lacked confidence in the Malaysian economy.

在最近一次电视采访中,马来西亚总理对其国家的经济形势深表忧虑。马来西亚受世界金融危机、世界石油价格下跌以及本国长时间经济萧条的共同影响,经历了一段金融困难时期。这次困境的直接原因是投资者对马来西亚经济缺乏信心。∥ ●Due to reform of the currency system, high inflation and major financial frauds, most people had little confidence in domestic commercial banks and even doubted the financial policies for the Central Bank and the government. The government and the rubber industrial companies are in severe dispute over settlement of the latter’s tax bill. As a result, many foreign companies intended to stay away from further involvement in

the country’s development of economy.  由于货币制度改革,通货膨胀及重大金融失误,绝大多数老百姓对国内商业银行很少有信心,甚至怀疑央行和政府的金融政策。政府的橡胶工业公司就解决后者的税收问题激烈争论。因此,众多外国公司不愿再进一步介入国家的经济发展。●国家统计局日前对 100对经济学专家进行了调查。多数专家认为上半年经济走势趋好,经济状况较理想。对于下半年的宏观经济走势,超过 80%的专家预期会比上半年更好一些。The National Bureau of Statistics has conducted a survey among one hundred Chinese economists. Most of them think that the economic trends during the first half of the year were favorable and the economic situation is quite ideal. With regards to the macroeconomic trends for the second half, over 80% of those polled predicted that the second half would be better than the first half.

所有专家都预期今年的经济增长速度将高于去年,平均预期值为 8%左右。但与此同时,不少专家认为,如果没有进一步的资金投入,下半年的经济增长速度可能低于上半年。

With regards to China’s economic growth this year, all experts predict a higher figure than that of last year, the average forecast being about 8%. However, at the same time, many experts argue that without a new round of infusion of funds, the economic growth rate of the second half could be lower than that of the first half.

●经济学家们认为,由于价格总水平的长期下降,使企业无法认清市场需求,无法确定投资方向,结果使企业的发展,经济的增长受到很大的影响。Economists say that if the prices have been dropping for long periods of time, the enterprises will be at

a lass as to where the market demand is and don’t know where to invest. Consequently, the companies’

development and the economic growth are greatly affected.

目前,中国市场的价格运行出现了一些积极的变化,但由于社会商品供过于求的矛盾依然突出,价格回升的基础关不稳固。经济界人士仍担心年底前能否走出通货紧缩的阴影。Although there have been positive changes in the fluctuation of prices, the foundation of a rebound in prices isn’t firm due to the fact that the supply is still greater than the demand. Whether China is able to escape the shadow of deflation by the end of the year is still of much concern to those in the economic circle.

●我们想通过改革在我国确立有中国特色的社会主义市场经济的体制。我们为此做了长期的准备工作。中央政府,各级地方政府以及大型国有企业之间都取得了一致的看法。What we want to achieve through reform is to establish a socialist market economy w

我们高兴地看到,全国以及各行各业的总的情况是稳定的。经济增长远远超过了预期的目标。外国在华直接投资也达到有史以来的最高水平。对我国经济发展的前景我持非常乐观的态度。 We are glad that the general situation in the country and in all industries has been st

●自 70年代后期,中国向世界开放以来,到 1998年 7月底,中国已批准了三十一万四千余个外资,其中一半以上已开始运作。据《中国信息报》报道,这些项目的外资签约总量为五千四百多亿美元。By the end of July 1998, China had approved more than three hundred and fourteen thousand foreign-invested projects since its opening to the rest of the world in the late 1970s and more than half has begun operating. The China Information reported that these projects have a combined contractual foreign investment of over US $ 540 billion.

在过去的五年中,外商投资急剧上升,在我国经济发展中起了重大的作用。1993年以来,中国一直是继美国之后的第二大外资受益国。The last five years has witnessed the drastic growth of foreign investment, which has been playing a vital role in the development of our economy. Since 1993, China has remained the second largest recipient of foreign funds, after the United States.

二、 高频短句1 中华文明博大精深、源远流长。

The Chinese civilization is extensive and profound, and has a long history.

2 现代化的交通、电信与大众传媒手段使世界变得越来越小,国际社会如同一个地球村,居住在地球村里的各国人民在文化交流和冲撞中和睦相处、彼此尊重、共求发展。Modern means of transportation, telecommunication and mass media have shortened the geographical distance of the world. The international community appears to be no more than a global village, in which peoples of all nations experience the inevitable cultural exchanges and clashes, while seeking common development in a harmonious and respectful relationship.

3 当代社会的民族文化不可能在自我封闭的状态下得到发展。不同的文化应该相互学习,取长补短。In this modern world, the culture of any nation cannot develop in isolation and different cultures should learn from each other’s strengths to offset their own weaknesses.

4 在广泛的文化交流中,一个民族的文化必须保持本民族的鲜明特色。我认为,文化交流不是让外来文化吞没自己的文化,而是为了丰富各民族的文化。The culture of a nation must withhold its own distinctive national characteristics in its extensive exchange with other cultures. Cultural exchange, I think, is by no means a process of losing one’s own culture to a foreign culture, but a process of enriching each other’s national cultures.

5 中国历史上产生了许多杰出的哲学家、思想家、政治家、军事家、科学家和文学艺术家,留下了浩如烟海的文化典籍。China produced in its history many outstanding philosophers, thinkers, statesmen, strategist, scientists, writers and artists and left us numerous volumes of literature.

6 春秋战国时期出现的“百家争鸣”局面和老子孔子等诸子百家的学说,在世界思想史上占有重要的地位。The scene of “contention of a hundred schools of thought” brought forth in the Spring and Autumn Period 2500 years ago and the Warring States Period over 2200 years ago and the emergence of various schools of thought and their exponents such as Lao Tzu and Confucius about 2400 years ago all occupy a very important position in the world history of philosophy.

7 不同文化背景的人在一起时会做出一些令对方感到不舒服的事,他们并非故意要这样做,有时甚至连自己都未察觉。People from different cultures sometimes do things that make each other uncomfortable, without meaning to or sometimes without even realizing it.

8 大多数美国人通常天真、率直,友好坦率,喜欢结识人,欢迎客人来访,愿意召集正式的或非正式的聚会。Most Americans are usually spontaneous, friendly and open, and enjoy meeting new people, having guests and dringing people together formally or informally.

9 美国人往往不拘礼节,讲话毫无拘束。所以,要是你的美国主人做出了使你感到不舒服的事,你应该设法让他们知道你的感受。他们会喜欢你的诚实态度,尽量不再做令你不快的事。They tend to be informal and speak freely. So if your American hosts do something that makes you uncomfortable, try to let them know how you feel. They will appreciate your honesty and try not to make you uncomfortable again.

10 中餐桌上最神奇、最有特色的用餐工具莫过于筷子。几千年来我们中国人一直视筷子为一种最简单同时也是最有效的用餐工具。No eating tools on the Chinese dinner table are more magical and distinctive than the chopsticks. For thousands of years we Chinese have always regarded chopsticks the simplest possible and the most efficient tool for meals.

  三、 口译练习部分

课件要求:该部分是中译英的练习,老师读中文的时候先不要同步出现版书,声音空白处再出现中文。教师公布英文答案的时候,声音和版书同步。拥有 5000多年的文明史,这是我们中国人的骄傲。中华民族的传统文化博大精深、源远流长。早在 2000多年前,就产生了以孔孟为代表的儒家学说和以老庄为代表的道家学说。以及其他许多也在中国思想史上有地位的学说流派,这就是有名的“诸子百家”。The 5000-year-long civilization is the source of pride of every Chinese. The traditional Chinese culture, both extensive and profound, starts far back and runs a long, long course. More than 2,000 years ago, there emerged in China Confucianism represented by Confucius and Mencius, Taoism represented by Lao Zi and Zhuang Zi, and many other theories and doctrines that figured prominently in the history of Chinese thought, all being covered by the famous term” the masters’ hundred schools.”

中华民族传统文化中有它的许多珍贵品,许多人民性和民主性的好东西。比如,强调仁爱强调群体,强调和而不同,强调天下为公。特别是“天下兴亡,匹夫有责”的爱国情操,“民为邦本”“民贵君轻”的民本思想,“己所不欲,勿施于人”的待人之道。The traditional Chinese culture presents many precious ideas and qualities, which are essentially populist and democratic. For example, they lay stress on the importance of kindness and love in human relations, on the interest of the community, on seeking harmony without uniformity and on the idea that the world is for all. Especially, patriotism as embodied in the saying ”Everybody is responsible for the rise or fall of the country”; the populist ideas that “people are the foundation of the country” and that “people are the more important than the monarch”; the code of conduct of “Don’t do to others what you don’t want others to do to you”.

弄堂在上海话里表示连接房子的巷子或巷子连接的房子。在弄堂里除了叫卖零食点心之外还有叫卖青菜、活鸡活鸭的,补皮鞋之类。他们各行各业有各自的呼唤声调,使人一听便知道是什么行业的人来了。它反映了上海人的文化、生活方式与心态。//Nongtang is the local term used by Shanghai people for linong, which means a lane that connects houses or a group of houses connected by lanes. In Nongtangs, besides hawkings of snack there were hawkings of vegetables, even live chicken and duck; Once or twice in a week, there would be hawking of redering services, such as repairing shoes. Every sort of trades would have their own melodic tune in hawking, people could identify them without stepping out to see. It reflects the culture, life-style and philosophy of Shanghai people.

由于弄堂房子家家户户紧挨着,共同分享屋前屋后的弄堂,平时出入照面时常会打个招呼或寒暄几句。它的优点是这里的生活富于邻里感,邻居相互帮助,“远亲不如近邻”在这里最能体现。在上海正在进行着的大规模的城市改造中,有些质量较佳的弄堂将予保留。//The houses in Longtangs, generally two storied, are proximately attached to each other in rows, sharing the same front and back lanes. People living along the same lane had the habit of nodding or greeting each other when passing by, some even had the mood to chat a little while. The advantages of the Nongtang life lie in the good neighborhood relationship,” good neighbors are more helpful than far away relatives” proved to be true in Shanghai. As the city is now undergoing a large-scale reconstruction, those Nongtangs of comparative good quality will be conserved.

第一章 Spot-dictation 填词听写

一、题型剖析这部分为主观试题。要求考生准确填写出试题中的空缺部分。听写文字内容长度为 350词左右,语速为每分钟 150词左右。 录音朗读时间 2-3 分钟。试题中有 20处标号的空缺部分要求考生填写,填写部分的单词、短语长度为 2-6个单词。听写内容播放后有 4-5 分钟时间供考生填写。注意:高级口译听力考试中的所有录音材料只放一遍,ONLY ONCE。

难点阐述听不出——不能准确听辨所要填写的信息。记不下——虽然能听辨出信息,但来不及记下来。Mine:听辨不出的重要问题在于:没有扎实掌握语言“四要素”(语音、词汇、语法、文化背景)。语言的“四要素”是听力提高的实力基础。只有步步为营、稳扎稳打、认真掌握,听力才会有质的飞跃;也只有这样,才会有“不管风吹浪打,胜似闲庭信步”的从容。由于空格与空格之间的时间间隔短,不可能把单词全部拼写出来。所以要掌握一套简写

符号。

二、技巧速成 22 字原则:边听边看边写,善用简写,不懂放弃,语法复查,小心誊抄。解析:1、边听边看边写

Spot-dictation 要求考生一边听录音,一边填写出文章中的空白。可是往往考生容易出现两种失误:要么把文章中已经有的内容当作了听写内容现在了空格中;要么看串了空格,把第五空填在第六空,第六空写在第七空...形成了恶性循环(vicious circle)。所以在听和写的同时,必须留心下一个空的位置。只有要耳、眼、手并用,才能顺利解

题。2、善用简写

“求全”是很多考生做这个大题时的心理。但就是这个“求全”的心理造成了考生的失分。由于空格与空格之间的时间间隔短,空格中单词的数目不定,考生如果记下一个空格的所有每个单词,往往会漏听了下面一个甚至几个空格。所以要尽可能的使用简写符号,以保证能成功地捕捉到下一个空格。3、不懂放弃  高级口译听力中遇到个别不熟悉的单词和词组是很正常的。听音过程中没有时间琢磨和推敲,遇到不懂的词句只能果断放弃。4、语法检查  注意:听音的时候一边听一边写到试卷上,最后写在答题纸上。19空和 20空直接写在答题纸上三、真题分析(一)、逐题讲解本篇是英式英语的读法,调式变化比较明显。逐句讲解分析:For centuries Oxford has been at Britain's intellectual heart, perhaps the___________(1) intellectual heart:智囊、智能中心答案:most prestigious

文化背景。第二章 口译听力语音关突破技巧

一、破解语音音变现象(一)音变现象概括

音变现象是广大考生的听力盲点所在。只有把他们逐个击破,才能为真正快速提高听力清出一条坦途。

打破汉语中顽固的“字”的概念。 汉语讲究字正腔圆,一字一音,除了“儿”化音外,相邻的字在发音时界限分明。而

英语是拼音语言,在实际说话中单词与单词之间并无明显的界限,从前一个单词到后一个单词可能发生连读,也可能有失去爆破等语音现象。(二)语音音变现象1、连读现象

连读现象是高级口译听力考试的语音测试重点,特别在 Spot-dictation中尤为突出,必须引起足够的重视!

所谓连读,即前一个单词结尾的辅音与后一个单词开头的元音相连读。连读实考例子:2004年 3月考高口真题Today I’m going to talk about what is pop art…pop art:很有特色的连读现象辅音+元音 That is easy

⌣ 辅音 +元音 She is in trouble ⌣辅音 +元音 keep on going ⌣辅音 +元音 set in motion (进入议事日程)⌣辅音 +元音 our own

113

Page 114: soft.xp666.com · Web view练短时记忆,别人说2 句话你要重复 说9 个内容,不相干,说5~7 个,每天练五分钟即可,可以是9 家著名公司,如intel.dell,ibm,apple

[键入文字]

辅音 +元音 of all ages

辅音+元音 come on in

辅音+元音 come on

连读练习:an old man, skin-instructor, ski-instructor, ill at east, CNN, etc.

2、叠合“叠合现象”即当前一个单词的结尾辅音与后一个单词的开头辅音相同时,不用再发

音两次,而是合并成一个音,同时发音延长。高级口译听力历年最典型实例 a couple of hours ’ s unlight (前一个“s”容易漏掉)some money eating and drinking habits Prime Minister more rain

3、同化 “同化现象”指两个音相遇,不读它们的叠合音,而是读一个新的音。同化现象的两大类:a 加入滑动半元音1. +=

last year Nice to meet you

2. +=would you please ...

3. += this year I miss you

4. +=Here is your ticket

b 的连读辨音单词之间或单词内部中的 “t”读快了会演变成/n/的发音。attitude—annitude interview—innerviewinteresting—inneresting representative—represennative want to—wanna going to—gonna

[键入文字]

二、英式英语和美式英语的发音区别我们之所以要把语音放在第一位,是因为语言是有声的,对语言的感觉首先是通过声

音。对英语的语音没有切身的体会,听力很难得到质的提高。Without a very solid foundation of pronunciation,your English can not go far.

高级口译听力语音特色:英式英语和美式英语兼有。大量地道、生活化的美音,对于大多数以英音启蒙的中国考生而言,不能不说是一大障碍;而对于刚考过托福、喜欢看美国大片的考生,“拿腔拿调”的英式发音有或多或少听起来不那么顺耳,影响了听力的理解。

英音美音九大区别

(一)单词中字母“r”发音——“卷舌”的标志显而易“听”,卷舌音是美音区别于英音的一大特色。请注意:美音中除了Mrs.中的“r”不卷舌之外,只要含有“r”字母的单词均要卷舌。

美音 英音spare

burglar

purpose /

高级口译听力历年最典型实例chairman, horse, dirty

(二)在美音中/t/发音与相近注意:美音中出现在两个元音之间且处于非重读位置的时候,发音近似,而不是完全等同。我们这里用来表示这个近似音。

美音 英音city

better

pretty

高级口译听力历年最典型实例waiter, winter, actor, yesterday, chapter

(三)听辨美音中的/

字母 a的发音出现在-ss, -st, -th, -ff, -ef, -nce 等前面时,美音把 a读为/美音 英音

can’t

美音 英音bottle

popular

knock

politician

高级口译听力历年最典型实例odd, lock, pot, sock, watch, fog, nod, solve, rocket, monopoly(垄断), shop, etc.

(五)字母 u和 ew在英音和美音的不同字母 u和 ew在 l, d, n, t 之后, 美音倾向于读, 而英音倾向读

美音 英音Due

produce

attitude

student

高级口译听力历年最典型实例value,opportunity,true,stupid,tune,supermarket,virtue, etc.

(六)美音单词:发音与拼写一致高级口译听力历年最典型实例

美音 英音Clerk

ceremony

Obey

dormitory

secretary

Epoch (新纪元)

[键入文字]

(七)词尾特殊读音 –ile在美音中“ile” 读为在英音中读为高级口译听力历年最典型实例

美音 英音fertile (肥沃)

hostil e (敌意)

missile (导弹)

textil e (纺织品)

第三章 高级口译听力笔记简写符号简写符号一般可以分为两种:一代一:即一个符号只代表一个固定的单词(包括单词各种词性的变化)。一代多:即一个符号可以代表一类意思的多个单词。 对于 Spot-dictation, 以使用“一代一”的符号为宜。但是鉴于简写符号的整体性,我们

把两种简写符号列在一起,请读者注意甄别。一、地名简写高级口译听力部分要求考生准确拼写出主要国家的名称和首都。 如果要把每个国家的

名称完整的记录下来.会很费时间。因此,常用国名的记录方法应常记心中,比如K=Korea, SD= Sweden, SW=Switzerland等等。 有时还可以借助“|-”来表示东、西、南、北、中等方位。例如: the Republic of Korea(ROK,南朝鲜 ),表示为“ -

K ”; 相应的 the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea(DPRK,北朝鲜) , 就可以表示为“K-” , Central London,表示为 LD。Western Europe(西欧)表示为“|EU”,Eastern Germany (东德)表示为“G|”。练习:Eastern Europe, South Africa, North China, Western Germany, South Asia,Central Ital

二、缩略词

117

[键入文字]

英语当中缩略词使用的频率很高,如 IMP: important, ASAP: as soon as possible。很显然如果能熟练掌握缩略词,会对考试大有裨益。

缩略词的写法一般为四种方式:(一)拿掉所有元音

MKT: marketMGR: manager MSG: messageSTD: standardRCV: receive

(二)保留前几个字母INFO informationINS insurance EXCH exchangeI owe you IOUIn stead of I/O

(三)保留开头和结尾个发音字母WK weekRM roomPL people

(四)根据发音R areTHO thoughTHRU through

(五)高级口译听力常用英语缩略词表缩略词 原词APT ApartmentACC AccountantACDG AccordingACPT AcceptAD AdvertisementADS AddressADV AdviceAMAP As much/many as possibleAMT AmountBAL BalanceBLDG BuildingCERT CertificateCMPE Compete/competitive

三、字母、图像o 表示“人”people/person,因为“o”看上去像个人头,它通常被写在一个

词或符号的右上角。例如:日本人:Jo。 表示政府,统治:government,govern

希腊字母读,近似 government, 所以就用来表示 govern, government。governmental official 可以表示为

表示政治:politics, political希腊字母读,近似 politics, political。那么 politician就可以表示为

表示效率:efficient, effective。为效率符号。

表示“通货膨胀”:inflation因为这个符号酷似一个上升的气球。

A 表示农业: agriculture. agriculture经常用到,所以用首字母代替。

B 表示商业:business。C× 表示冲突,矛盾:conflict,confrontation

119

Page 120: soft.xp666.com · Web view练短时记忆,别人说2 句话你要重复 说9 个内容,不相干,说5~7 个,每天练五分钟即可,可以是9 家著名公司,如intel.dell,ibm,apple

[键入文字]

“C×”中的“×”表示反对,字母“C”将反对的概念缩小为 conflict 和 confrontation。

W 表示工作,职业: work, employ 等。它是 work的第一个字母。所以W就可以用来表示 worker, 而 “ ” (小圆圈)在字母上方表示 employer, 在字母下方表示 employee。

i 表示工业: industry, industrial 字母 i 像只烟囱,所以用来可以用来表示工业。

U U 看酷似一个酒杯,在笔记中表示合同、协议(treaty, agreement)一般只有在谈判成功、协议成交后才会表示“举杯祝贺”。如果在 U 内填入 2,就可以表示为 bilateral(双边的) , 填入 3 表示为trilateral (三边的)。填入在 U中填入 1表示: Unilateralism(单边主义),填入 m (multiple) 表示多边主义。如果在U上加一个“/”表示谈判破裂。

O 表示“国家”、“民族”、“领土”等:country, state, nation, etc.O表示进口,O表示出口这个符号酷似一把椅子,可以表示主持、主办:chair, host, preside over。那么在此符号上加表示主席,主持人:chairman, host, etc.

表示“领导人”:leader, head那么 head of government, head of company 便可以表示为

⊙ 圆圈表示一个圆桌,中间一点表示一盆花,这个符号就可以表示会议、开会等:meeting,conference, negotiation,seminar,discussion,symposium

∞ 这个符号看上像条鱼,所以表示“捕鱼业”等合 fishery 有关的词汇。O 圆圈代表地球,横线表示赤道,所以这个符号就可以表示国际的、世界的、全

球的等: international, worldwide, global, universal, etc. 表示开心:pleasant, joyful,happy,excited, etc. 表示不满、生气 unsatisfied, discomfort, angry, sad, etc.O 表示听到、众所周之:as we all know, as is known to all, as you have already

heard of, etc.O 表示漠不关心、无动于衷: indifferent, apathetic, unconcern, don’t care much,

etc.

四、箭头 表示到达、传达:go into,arrive at,give to,send to,present to etc.

表示导致、引导:lead to, result in, in the direction of, etc.表示屈服:submit to

表示来自于:be/come from,return,receive from, etc.表示追溯到:come/go back to,originate

[键入文字]

表示“波折”:ups and downs, twists and turns, roller coaster, etc.

五、数学符号+ 表示“多”: many, lots of, a great deal of, a good many of, etc.++(+2) 表示“多”的比较级:more+3 表示“多”的最高级:most- 表示“少”: little, few, lack ,in short of/ be in shortage of etc.× 表示“错误”、“失误”和“坏”的概念:wrong/incorrect, something

bad,notorious,negative, etc. > 表示“多于”概念:bigger/larger/greater/more than/better than, etc.

六、标点等: 表示各种各样“说”的动词:say, speak, talk, marks, announce, declare, etc.? 表示“问题”:question,issue,例如:台湾问题:tw? . (dot) 这个“.”点的位置不同表示的概念也不一样

“.d”表示 yesterday, “.y”表示 last year, “.2m”表示 two month ago。Wk表示week“y”表示 this year, “y2.” two year later“next week”, 可以表示为“wk.”

∧ 表示转折 but yet however √ 表示“好的“状态,right/good,famous/well-known,etc.

-able/ible/ble 简写为 bl 例如:available avbl-ful 简写为 fl 例如:meaningful mnfl

八、使用简写笔记符号三原则听力考试中应遵循:脑记为主,笔记为辅”的原则。编写《高级口译听力简写符号》的初衷是帮助考生记忆和理解文章,但不能喧宾夺主完全依赖简写符号进行记忆。听力中的简写符号应遵循: “实用,快速,个性化”的原则。简写符号因人而异,中英文兼可,只要能便于记忆和书写。“坚持练习,产生条件反射”初学简写笔记符号的考生往往还是抑制不住把单词写全的冲动。只有多加练习,才会熟能生巧。九、 能力培养Dictation 三步走第一步:听音先将听力材料先听一遍,看看自己能听懂多少,再听写。开始练习Dictation,可以听半句话写半句话。随着自己听写水平的不断提高,可以将时间间隔拉长——听一句写一句,不断加大时间间隔。当你能一次听写两句时候,大脑对英语的记忆容量就“扩容”(memory expansion)到了两句(新闻英语的两句话,还是很有挑战性的)。随着不断记忆力的“扩容”,再去做高级口译的听力题只会有一种难以抑制的感觉——“It’s a piece of cake”。遇到听不出来的单词,尽量查字典(最好是英英词典),实在没法了,才对参考文章。这样主要是为了增强辩音能力。同时也是为了增大声音与脑子反应之间刺激强度。第二步:参照答案 参照是非常重要的一个环节,也是最容易被忽视的的一个环节。参照答案应当遵循以下四大板块寻找、克服听力盲点,树立正确的听觉记忆:语音:检查连读、失去爆破等音变知识的漏洞。词汇:弥补词汇的盲点。语法:掌握较复杂的语法结构。文化背景:习得新文化背景知识。第三步:背诵翻译背诵听力盲点,直到脱口而出。选取一句话翻译成汉语。第二天将这句话回译为英语,看看能不能译到原文的效果。

第四章 Listening Comprehension 听力理解

一、题型剖析这部分为客观试题-单项选择。共 20空,每题一分,20分。听力材料分为三大板块:

单边类:Talk(讲座),每次考试一篇。 双边类:Conversation(对话)and Interview(采访),每次考试各一篇。新闻类:News Broadcasting, 每次考试有五条短新闻。

录音语速为每分钟 170词左右。每道选择题后有 12-15 秒的间隙。注意:对于不同体裁的听力材料解题,难点和要点也各有差别。将按各体裁板块的特点进行分

析、对照以达到有的放矢、有效击破。

二、高级口译听力理解三步走:(一)Pre-listening: 听前稳定情绪:听力考试前必须Maintain your confidence。不要因为一处的失误,影响做题情绪。快速扫读选择项,预测、寻找记忆重点。若选项中出现人名、地名、数字、时间等时,要特别留心它们的对应事物。对应关系是近年来的考查的新趋向。

(二)While-Listening:听中思想集中:听音的过程中要 concentrate on the task,但情绪也不可过分紧张。有“化境”之感: 进行联想,把可能出现的内容和自己的知识背景结合起来,思想要介入到要听的内容中,使自己融入听力材料——Make a picture in your mind! 把抽象的文字变成形象的图画反映在脑海中。这样就有了动态图像的帮助,就有利于我们避开“直接翻译的无序性”,以至抓住了高级口译听力的主干而不是细枝末节,从而走出了“听了后面,忘了前面”的“怪圈”。迅速笔记:在听音中要利用预测时得到的潜在信息(人名、地名、数字、时间)把握听音的重点,利用符号、图示等方法迅速笔记,以促进有效记忆。抓住关键词:听音时的笔记很重要,沿着主题的思路进行归纳和总结。耳眼并用: 就是一边用耳听,一边用眼浏览选择项,进行分析和归纳,做到听与浏览相结合,听与思考及记忆相结合,这一过程必须在短时间内完成。(三)Post-listening 听后听完录音之后要迅速会议和整理所听懂的内容。

采取排除法、归纳法等解题。注意:高口听力不要做任何层次的延伸和递进三、单边类:Talk解题思路(一)题型剖析讲座所涉及的中心话题相当广泛:包括政治(如英国的教育制度),经济、文化教育、语言文学、科普等。听力文段有 600-700字,5分钟左右读完。就 Talk本身的语言特色而言,可以将其分为两大类:正式 Talk和非正式 Talk。正式 Talk的特色 语言规范(以 Formal language为主)

措词严谨(多用专业术语,拉丁词汇)句法结构严谨(以复合句和长句为主)逻辑性强、层次分明(主要体现在“信息词”的使用)

非正式 Talk 的特色

口语化成分多,通常是说话人即兴的讲话或报告用词贴近生活句法结构较为松散由于说话人边说边想,话语中不时会夹杂一些停顿,重复甚至自我更正

(二)难点阐述正式 Talk说话人语言精练,语速比非正式略快。考生反应:词汇量过大;句子结构复杂;信息量大,记下了后半句,忘了前半句。非正式 Talk的难点和双边类相似:语言逻辑性不强,“听”似没有整体脉络,“绊脚石”影响听力理解。

(三)技巧速成 Talk是高口听力中比较难的一块,由于其篇幅长、信息量大,难于听一遍录音就把全文

记住。有些考生基本听不懂,有些只能抓住支离破碎的几个词或几句话,短文讲了什么,什么是要点,都全然不知,根本无法答题。例外一些考生能听懂一部分,但是关键词抓不住,具体情节没有听好,对全文内容记得短短续续、迷迷糊糊、似是而非,回答问题时毫无把握,只能凑对答案。所以必须特别注意以下几点:抓主题,理脉络预测选项, 寻找记忆重点(参照前文,不再累述)(四)高口 talk中的“路标词”1.衔接词

表示逻辑前后顺序to begin with, FinallyNext

(五)英语思维破解长句长度大,结构复杂的句子是 Talk中主要的听力障碍之一。高级口译听力中的长句即使

出现在书面考试中也是要花些功夫推敲、琢磨的。但在听力考试中,听力材料只能听一遍,所以有些考生搞不清这些句子从哪里开始,到哪里结束,句子的框架结构是什么。只要用“英语思维”,长句理解就能“迎刃而解”。乍一听,用“英语思维”似乎很神秘,让人感到虽有无限诱惑但却无从入手。用英语思

维,其实就是用“英语语法思维”。要做到“两个分明”即:“主谓分明,主从分明”

主谓分明:明确听力句子中主语和谓语,进而捕捉到主要信息,分化出宾语、定语、状语等分支成分;主从分明:明确长句的主句和从句结构,进而明确逻辑关系,整体理解。“两个分明”不仅在听力理解中有不可替代的作用。如果在英语口语和英语写作也能运用这一原则,同样会得到明显的进步。

四、双边类解题(一)题型剖析Interview(采访):一问一答。问话的形式可以是Wh-question (what, who, when, where, why and how)或者为反意疑问句和一般疑问句。这些问题对听力考题有提示作用。考生务必要抓住这些问题,这样就可以在随后的答话中找到答案。Conversation(对话):双方各抒己见,有时也会对对方的观点加以评论。提问顺序和情节发展有时不是平行进行的。 (二)难点阐述“双边类”听力材料有很强的口语气息,大量使用英语口头语 (spoken English)和习语(idiomatic expression),而这些往往成了听力的“拦路虎”.“双边类”模仿实际生活中的对话,谈话的逻辑层次难以捕捉。考生普遍反应虽然每句话基本能够听懂,但整篇文章下来, 却“只见树木,不见森林”,回答“主题题”还是无从入手。“双边类”题目的另一个“绊脚石”就是对话中的停顿、重复和自我更正。如:“er”, “mum”, “well”, “um” etc; 以及重复、更正和解释说明的插入语。如:“that is to say...”, “what I mean is...”, “Let me put it this way...”, “...I think...”,

[键入文字]

“...It seems to me that...”,etc.

考生听到这些“停顿”和“重复”时的“本能反映”是:干扰思路,同时自觉不自觉地要开会儿小差,好像是在等说话人把语言整理清楚再接着听。但殊不知,这些“绊脚石”后面往往是考点所在呀! 因为经过更正、整理过的语言才是说话人真正想表达的意思,我们在说汉语时也常用“我的意思是...”, “在我看来”,“应该这么说...”等来重点突出自己的主要观点。(三)技巧速成 预测选项, 寻找记忆重点做到三心”

关心问答和重复 在双边类解题过程中要特别关心 “interviewee”是如何针对“interviewer”的

问题进行回答。考生往往随后的答话中找到答案。另外文段中重复的内容要引起考生高度关注。

小心“绊脚石” 即兴的问答,边说边想,逻辑性不强,造成起上下文思路衔接不紧,考生在听音中不容易抓住实质的中心内容。说话人的更正、重复、语序颠倒,尤其是停顿,会分散考生的注意力,影响听的质量。高级口译听力中的“双边类”题目之所以要设置“绊脚石”, 就是为了要检

查考生在真实的场景中有没有“抗干扰”能力, 能否“拨云见日”进而顺利抓住说话人要表达的主要信息,忽略次要的,甚至是错误信息。 留心“信息词”: 强转折、强对比、唯一性、最高级、序数词

第五章 高口考试新闻类解题

一、题型剖析高级口译听力中的新闻来自VOA和 BBC等英语广播和电视节目中有关政治、社会、经济、文化教育、科技等方面的新闻报道和记者采访或现场报道。高级口译新闻听力不是VOA等的原声录音,而是由非播音员朗读的。高级口译听力的新闻基本上来源于一年之内发生的国际事件,所以考生要注意关注时事,保持与时俱进。二、难点阐述新闻英语涵盖面广,对词汇量的要求较高。高级口译着重考查新闻导语(每条新闻第一句话)。高级口译近年来每次考试出现 5条不同的短新闻(News Briefing)。听辨出不同条的新闻是解题的关键!三、技巧速成

127

[键入文字]

预测选项, 寻找记忆重点(参照前文,不再累述)把握新闻的程式化结构——倒金字塔结构英语新闻独特的程式结构:倒金字塔,即按新闻时事内容和重要性的顺序安排全文。英语新闻将最重要、最生动、最能吸引人的新闻事实放在全条新闻开头,称导语(lead)。次要的放在导语之后,依次排列,最不重要的放在末尾。所以,导语是对新闻内容的浓缩,把握了导语也就把握了一则新闻的概要。考生在听音过程中,必须对每则新闻的开始部分倍加留心,以获取该新闻的精髓。而且高级口译每次都对新闻导语着重考查。新闻所有的句子都是为了回答 what, who, where, when, why and how(即:5个W和 1

个H)。但是,必须明白,在这个 5个W和 1个H中,what是核心,who紧跟其后,这两个W几乎同时出现在新闻的首句中,这正是新闻报道的目的所在。 when, where, why 和how 都是为了更清楚地说明导语。抓住了新闻的结构程式,自然会提高收听的针对性,减少盲目性,理解程度就能得以

加深。由于 when, where, who和who是围绕着what而转的,如果考试中因粗心或紧张等因素,一时抓不住导语,还可以通过后面的why和 how进行逆向推理,what还是会搞清楚的。四、重要国家、地理名称

despite cutting off exports of crude oil under the UN's oil-for-food programme, UN officials said.

Question No. 8. What was proposed at the joint meeting staged by the European Union?8. (A) To cut down on the US military presence in Europe. (B) To increase the European Union's military influence. (C) To make combined efforts to sustain its economic growth. (D) To take concrete actions to stop arms race. LONDON: For the first time in its 42-year history, the European Union (EU) staged a joint meeting of foreign affairs and defence ministers to debate how the union can acquire a security dimension consistent with its economic strength. During that meeting, Britain and France proposed that Europe, by either 2002 or 2003, should possess the capacity to deploy a rapid reaction force of some 50, 000 troops in a peacekeeping operation in or around the EU. The proposal received a strong response, which is indicative that the EU is making concrete efforts to bolster its military clout in Europe.

Question No. 9. What was disclosed in a survey released by the US Defence Department on Tuesday?9. (A) Sex discrimination in the U.S troops is far less obvious than in other fields of American life.

(B) Race relations have considerably improved in the US military. (C) There are more black or Hispanic officers in the armed services than before.(D) Many minority military personnel complained about negative race relations.

WASHINGTON: A high percentage of blacks, Hispanics and other minorities in the US military complained in a survey released by the Pentagon on Tuesday that they have experienced racially offensive behaviour in the armed services. In the virtually unprecedented Defence Department survey of more than 40,000 US troops, one in five blacks responding also said they felt race relations played a negative part in their prospects for promotion or assignment. But the survey, taken in 1997, indicated that military personnel felt Pentagon efforts to promote good race relations and equal opportunity were succeeding and that discrimination in uniform was far less pronounced than in other areas of American life.

Question No. 10. As compared with the same period last year, how much did Japan's trade surplus drop?TOKYO: Japan's trade surplus plunged 14. 4 per cent in October from its level a year ago, the government said yesterday. Government official blamed the strong yen for severely damaging exports. The trade surplus dropped to US $ 11. 2 billion, the Finance Ministry reported, making October the seventh month in a row for a drop in the trade surplus. "Japan's exports have been pressed by the sharp appreciation of the yen against the US dollar, which mainly contributed to the surplus fall," said Naoko Ogata, an analyst at the Sakura Research Institute. "With the yen rising to current levels, exporters are finding it difficult to make a profit."10. (A) 4.4%. (B) 11.2% (C) 14.4%. (D) 44%.

全部是实词(名词、形容词、动词、数词、代词、副词),而不能填虚词(主要是连词和介词);可以填同义词。

评分标准

难点阐述听音结束后才能拿到试卷,所以考生听音前对文章无从预测。笔记难做,空难填有三种不同层次的笔记:没有笔记——不能边听边做笔记。很多内容记忆不下来。到了填写的时候,脑中只能回荡着两个英文单词“Mission Impossible”。笔记的含金量低——虽有笔记,而且笔记内容洋洋洒洒一张纸,但量大而质低。笔记凌乱——难以识别。好像听到,也记下来了,但找笔记的过程太费劲、太浪费时间。

记忆力受到极大的挑战——常常前一句还没有反映过来,后一句话已经读了一半了。记忆力的好坏是建立在良好的理解基础上的,考生必须集中精力,抓住讲话人的要点和主要内容。

技巧速成判断讲座重点做好笔记的关键!之所以很多考生做出含金量低的笔记,是因为抓不住讲座的重点。不知道什么该记,

什么不该记,往往该记的没有时间记,不该记的倒是记了不少。高级口译听力考试选取的文段都是以“讲座”的形式出现,其特点是:中心突出,结构清晰,层次分明。

在文章的开始部分, 即开头的几句话,必然出现讲座所要讨论的中心话题。开门见山型:

[2000. 3 实考试题]I’ m going to talk about acid rain, a subject which many people have heard of but very few understand fully.[2000.9 实考试题]In 1959 Americans welcomed Alaska into the Union as the 49 th state , symbolizing a change of attitude from that held in 1967, when the peninsula was purchased from Russia.

以及其他以what 开头的主语从句。笔记技巧巧用笔记纸考生会在听录音前拿到一张笔记纸(除去指示语,可以利用的面积只有 2/3),考生可以从背面开始作笔记,尽量在背面把笔记做完。 听义不跟词很多考生在做笔记一门心思在“听词”“记词”上,时忽略了对内容的理解,没有理解

语句的意义,一篇文章笔记下来,抓到了很多只言片语,对文章内容却“不知所云”。这种笔记“含金量”可想而知。

笔记填空的实质要把握原文的“message” 而不是“words”。所以要“听义不跟词”,也就是“得意而忘言”(《庄子·外物》)。笔记的原则把听到的每一句话的要点写在一行,超过千万不要把两句话的意思写在一行否则找笔记

的过程会很痛苦。要坚决避免笔记凌乱。

注意信息词信息词之后必须做笔记!顺序词Firstly, Secondly, First of all, Then, FinallyOn one hand ... on the other ... 排比信息前兆词 高级口译每次都对对排比内容进行考查,而且往往排比所在即考点所在。由于排比内容密度大、速度快,考生往往难以把握。即使意识到了是“排比”,也是“为时已晚”。 所以必须对排比信息的“前兆词”高度警惕!There are many ... but I’ll just talk (focus on, mention) three of themFor example:For instance:in the following areas (fields)... have such characteristics as . .熟练运用笔记符号通过词汇固定搭配、和上下文的语义猜词填空二、真题讲解一试卷一 本部分 SECTION 4: LISTENING TEST (30 minutes)Part A: Note-taking and Gap-filling声音考题原文

这部分为主观题。要求考生在听懂和理解原话的基础上,译出原话的主要内容。 这部分考试是上海英语高级口译岗位资格证书考试的一道“特色菜”,对考生的综合能力要求很高。听译内容分为句子听译(sentence translation)和段落听译(passage translation)。句子听译共5个,每个3分。长度为 30个词左右。后留有60秒的时间间隙供考生翻译书写。

句子听译从近几年的考试来看,句子听译一般会有 2-3个句子单句,有时单句之间会有一定的逻辑关系。

5个句子听译内容涵盖政治、经济和社会生活,而且会有数字听译。

段落听译段落听译共有2个,一个7分一个8分;段落长度为100个词左右。每段后有 200 秒左右的间隙共考生翻译书写。 段落听译两段文章主要有以下四大体裁: 新闻类:叙述一个新闻事实,常考灾难性新闻。广告类:播出一则广告。 地理类:叙述一个国家或地区的地理特征和人文背景。考生应调动自己的知识积累,以促进对文段的理解和记忆。逻辑、数字类:这种文段表面上介绍一种新事物或事件,实则考查考生对文段的理解程度和逻辑脉络的把握程度。注意:听译部分的考查侧重点在于听懂和理解,而不在翻译技巧,不必也没有时间讲究翻译的辞藻,所以考生只要能够把听力材料的主要内容翻译成通顺的汉语即可。

难点阐述听译部分难,难在三个过程:“听”,“记”和“译”。所有考试中“听不懂”的原因只有四个方面:语音基础知识不牢、词汇量不够、特殊语法现象不熟悉,文化背景知识不丰富。“记”包括脑记和笔记。高级口译听译的材料并不长,所以应该遵循“脑记为主,笔记为辅”的原则。

脑记的关键在理解,笔记的关键在熟练。对于高级口译的听译,只有脑记和笔记兼有,才能获得成功!脑记的关键在理解:理解是一切记忆的根本前提,记忆是理解基础上的记忆,而不是盲目、杂乱的或逐字逐句的死记硬背。所以听译是一种“意义”记忆。

在脑记中,考生对听力文段的理解应该放在两个重点上:一、搜寻、判断话语信息间的逻辑联系。二、抓住各个逻辑层次的核心意义。脑记的困惑:即使对于一段文字理解上没有困难的文段,还是不能靠脑记记忆下来。经

常是听了下半句忘了上半句,一长段听下来脑子中只剩了最后一句。原因:脑中英文的 storage太小——即短时记忆能力欠佳。解决的办法:Dictation (听写)和 Shadowing(跟读)

笔记的关键在熟练 同笔记填空中笔记的难点一样,存在三种不同类型的笔记。“译”的关键在速度。 多于大多数考生而言,50 秒译出三句子、200 秒译出 7-9个句子,并把他们工整的写出来决不是件易事。而英语中的一些语法结构和中英文语序的差异都事听译的“拦路虎”。考生在实考中,由于紧张等原因,往往听漏或者听错第一个词甚至第一句话。而听译中的第一句话往往是这段听译材料的中心句,暗示整段材料的体裁,更重要的是给听力文段奠定了感情基调和逻辑倾向。

技巧速成

记笔记脑记听译句子和段落的主题意思熟练掌握和使用笔记符号,使之达到条件反射级的熟练程度。每行笔记只记一句话的内容。记实词笔记,和特别是数字、日期及其对应和排比。

翻译高级口译听译 8 字翻译原则:顺句操作,随机调整。顺句操作:顺句操作:听译的第一原则,也是最经济的原则。与笔译相比,听译不允许考生有时间去反复琢磨如何译得称心。考生只能按听到意思的顺序一句句译下去。高级口译听译中的大部分句子均可参照这一原则进行翻译。

文章中人物的作用:1、文章的主角 Leading role2、议论文中的 Example

3、被引用者的话 Quotation

东西方新闻报道焦点不同:西方新闻更愿意暴露社会上尖锐、新奇、有争议的事件。The 26-year-old legal secretary from Shrewsbury, England, a single mom with a 9-year old

son, was thinking more about becoming a paid egg donor.egg donor. 卵子捐献者本句很具体,目的是为了说明第一句话。When she bought her first computer and did some research on the Internet, the tales of

childless couples she came across broke her heart, she says, and made her think of going one step further, as some 20, 000 surrogate moms do each year in the U.S. "

本句也非常具体,也是对第一句话的说明和支持。The more I thought about it, "she says, "the more I thought of happy endings."本句的目的也是为了证明第一句话所表达的主旨。注意:英美一流报刊文章通常是倒三角结构,文章的前三分之一一定会表明文章主旨、核心、

线索。 第二段Six-and-a-half months after her first surrogate pregnancy began, as twin babies kick inside

her, Beasley could not be much farther from a happy ending.主句:Beasley could not be much farther from a happy ending 说明这篇文章描述的是一

件坏事情。.

She’s mired in a bitter legal battle with Charles Wheeler and Martha Berman, the San Francisco attorneys who found her classified ad on the Internet and flew her over last March for a trip to a fertility clinic.

Mired 使……深陷泥潭本句中有很多具体的描述,这些具体的东西在阅读的时候都可以被忽视,我们只需明

确主角陷入了官司中。Pregnant with one more baby than Wheeler and Berman wanted, Beasley says, she has

received only 1, 000 of the 20, 000 they originally agreed to pay her. 本句中有很多数字,而数字往往是可以被忽略的。

The fate of the twins she’s carrying but does not want or have legal rights to will be decided by a California court, in one of the most bizarre surrogacy cases yet.

文章的第二段把案子的背景信息告诉了大家。第三段:Beasley acknowledges the Wheeler and Berman, who have refused to talk to the media, made

it clear in their discussions that they wanted just one child. What’s more, notes Stanford law professor Deborah Rhode, "theirs was a very extensive

contract.What’s more :更有甚者重要连接词及用法:Furthermore,moreover,that is,that is to say,i.e,also

There were 50 clause providing for every contingency, "including the case of a multiple pregnancy, a real possibility given that three donor eggs fertilized by Wheeler’s sperm were implanted in Beasley’s womb. Contingency:可能性、偶然性Including的出现说明接下来的文字要列举一系列的内容,这些列举内容都是非常具体的,不太可能成为主题句,在口译阅读中可以略看。The contract required Beasley to honor the couple’s decision about whether to have a selective reduction, the termination of one or more fetuses in a multiple pregnancy. Fetuses:胚胎Still, Beasley says, "I didn’t realize they would go so ballistic" over the idea of twins.Ballistic:勃然大怒第三段的主题在于What’s more引出的句子中,关键词 extensive特别记录,第三段的很多内容与合同、官司有关。

Berman made the arrangements early in the pregnancy. But, as she tells it, there was a lengthy e-mail row between the two sides after Beasley

(A) negotiation磋商 (B) argument 争吵(C) communication交流 (D) dialogue对话

it was a petty affair in which each accused the other of going on vacation without warning, but it took weeks to mediate.

By the time Wheeler and Berman booked Beasley’s flight to California for the reduction, it was week 13 of her pregnancy, she says.

第四段的关键在于明确文章中的两方人物有争执。第五段At that stage, Beasley felt that terminating a fetus was wrong. Plus, the late date increased the

risk that both fetuses would be lost in the procedure. Her high blood pressure was already complicating the pregnancy.

At that stage:在那个阶段 以上三句话,是在并列说明一个主题,内容很具体,可以略看Beasley claims that Wheeler and Berman’s lawyer, who declined to comment, presented her with two options: to terminate one fetus as requested or terminate both and still get paid.本句也是并列说明,可以略看。第六段Unwilling to do either, Beasley tried to compromise option of seeking other potential parent. 从本句看出,本段开始的内容将是主人公“寻找出路”的地方。She says both sides offered candidates but fought over what-if anything-the newcomers

would pay Wheeler and Berman for their in-vitro fertilization and donor-egg expenses.-if anything-

破折号的作用:1、解释:用浅显的语言说明复杂的内容。2、总结:前面简单,后面浓缩。3、分隔:两个破折号一定是分隔作用,第一个破折号总结、解释前面的内容,后面的

破折号就是一个插入的作用。

In Britain the matter would have been simpler. There, surrogate mothers have full legal rights to the babies they bear for at least the first six weeks. But since the contract was signed in California, Beasley, now living in San Diego, supported by her lawyer there, is suing to sever the couple’s rights over the children and claim unspecified damages.

And even though they have been through a lot together, Beasley has no such plans for the

its takeover by the American Wal-Mart discount chain. Tesco’s £1.05bn profit, which was generated in the year to the end of February, is 12% up on last year. Sales were up 11.9%.

本句用数字证明和对手进行比较。

第四段Earlier this year-in the wake of a two-year competition commission

inquiry which cleared the supermarkets of making excessive profits-Tony Blair accused the supermarkets of having shoppers in “an armlock”, but Tesco denied its profits and success were being driven by squeezing

suppliers. It said it had cut prices by £1bn over the past five years and that its prices were now 11% lower than in 1996.

第五段A spokesman for the company said: “Our profits have been growing in

the with sales for a number of years. In other words, it is not margin expansion, or any rip-off, that is driving the profit growth.” “And in as much as farmers are experiencing tough times, why blame it on the supermarkets? Other macro factors are more important. Farm profits are extremely cyclical and in recent years the strong pound and the travails associated with BSE have been the main issues.”

第六段But a spokeswoman for the National Consumer Protection Council

said: “It is high time Tesco cut their prices more and gave the customers more benefit from their profits”, while Michael Hart, of the Small And Family Alliance, accused the supermarkets of being a “new food baronial class”. The Liberal Democrats’ agriculture spokesman, Colin Breed, called for the appointment of a retail regulator “who would not be in the pockets of the supermarkets.”

Liberal Democrats:自由民主党人注意:Reading Objectives: 正反论证,做好笔记baronial class:贵族阶层But the National Farmers’ Union, while admitting that some of its

members would find the earnings “hard to comprehend”, backed the company. Spokeswoman Helen Lo said farmers hit by crises like BSE and foot and mouth should work with the big grocers, rather than “wage a war” on them. She said: “I think the way forward is to get farmers to muscle together to make a better profit for themselves, and they should look at efficiencies of operations.”

Tesco is driving its growth through international expansion, and now operates 65 hypermarkets abroad, mostly in central Europe and Asia.

Sales at those stores climbed to nearly £3bn last year and they produced

profits of £74m. At home, the group last year sold £45m of DVD players and TVs, extended its clothing range put 8,00 new nonfood products on its shelves.

Hypermarket超大型超市

Mr. Leahy outlined plans to spend £1bn opening more Tesco outlets in the UK this year. He intends to double both the number of Tesco Express stores on Esso forecourts to 100 and the number of Tesco Extra hypermarkets to around 45. The expansion plans are expected to create 20,000 new jobs-half in the UK-meaning Tesco’s worldwide payroll will rise to 260,000. The Tesco. com grocery home delivery business also brings in profits. The online grocer is now the biggest e-tailer in the world. Its 1m

registered users 70,000 weekly shoppers spend £6m a week.

Questions 6~10

Reading Objectives: 进一步理解时间强对比的写法,理解 example的功能You saw the stories of the embarrassment at Encyclopedia Britannica last week as the

company's highly advertised free Web site was jammed into nonfunctioning.Encyclopedia Britannica:大英百科全书jam:堵塞,拥挤nonfunctioning.:瘫痪句子的主体:the stories of the embarrassment

The stories were of some 10 million hits a day clogging the site, www. britannica. com; of three separate apologies given to would be users of the free reference service; of promises to get the thing up and running, perhaps as early as this week. 考点:分号引出并列(细节)三个细节用;连接,细节非常具体,不是重点部分,可以略看,More striking, though, is what the stories didn't say: What an extraordinary thing it is that people around the world suddenly have access—free access—to knowledge that would have been the envy of a university professor earlier in my own lifetime.

(B) the Web site can be repaired soon (C) it is one of the major signs of knowledge explosion(D) it is the symbol of the arrival of encyclopedic age

Example题分两种:考 example的 function或者 content,section 2考前者较多,遇到这种题目不要留恋细节内容,要看上下文比较抽象和概括的内容。小帖士:如果文章是一个小故事,我们应该关注隐藏在故事背后的深层抽象道理。

As for ordinary people, I remember how the encyclopedia salesmen would come around with their sample volumes, their memorized spiels and their offers of “easy” terms if you'd only sign up for Compton's or World Book.本句也是细节描写,可以略读。另外,本句是对过去的描写,隐藏了时间强对比的信息。spiel 喋喋不休“easy” terms:优惠条款

Owning an encyclopedia—or “a set of encyclopedias”, as we used to say—was a pretty big deal for families of modest means, an unaffordable luxury for many of the folk in my hometown. And now it's all free—or will be as soon as Britannica works out the bugs. Bug:错误Now宣告了主体内容的出现The reason it's free is the Britannica, whose hard-copy sales are down some 80 percent since 1990, is forced to compete with Microsoft-s dominant Encarta Encyclopedia.本句比较细节,因此不太可能是主题句。

But the encyclopedia is just one small illustration of the explosion both in knowledge and in our access to it since Thomas Jefferson's modest book collection formed the nucleus of the Library of Congress.Not only does my own house now contain more books than Jefferson ever owned, but my access to public libraries, bookstores and, of course, the Web, gives my family information resources beyond the imagination of world-class scholars a short time ago.

不要留恋细节内容,要看上下文比较抽象和概括的内容

I've just had a phone call from a friend who tells me that, in preparation for an upcoming trip to Benin, she's downloaded 75 to 100 pages of information, from a score of sites, on that West African country—information on everything from the local currency, political situation and weather to the latest local news and the street address of the American embassy. 本段又出现了一个故事,具体的故事可以略看,关键是隐藏在故事后的道理。

American philanthropy isn't what it used to be. American philanthropy isn't what it used to be.:时间强对比的暗示本句推断出了第六题的答案。

Gone are the days when old money was doled out by bureaucrats from mahogany-paneled rooms. More people are giving out more money than ever before, at much younger ages, and to a much wider variety of causes. In the 1980s, Ronald Reagan's call for private charity to replace government largesse was greeted with hoots of liberal derision-and an outbreak of giving. Largesse:慷慨Hoot:嘲讽Derision:嘲讽Outbreak:爆发The number of private foundations rose from 22, 000 in 1980 to 55, 000 today. They now dole out about 23.3 billion a year, a 700 percent increase since 1980.

And many are the offspring of capitalists, who bring the language of business to charity. Vanessa Kirsch, president and founder of the entrepreneurial charity New Profit Inc., says, "There's this new breed of social entrepreneurs coming out of Harvard Business School or failed dot -coms, and they're saying, ‘I want to make big things happen.’"对应题目:7. The author mentions Ronald Reagan's call for private charity to replace government largesse

as .(A) Ronald Reagan was the then American President

largest foundations devote to international causes jumped from 11.3 percent in 1999 to 16.3 percent in 2000. And while the U.S. government is often criticized for stingy foreign aid (well under 1 percent of GNP each year), the same can't be said of private donors, who now give away 2.1 percent of U.S.GNP each year. "No nation comes even remotely close to the U.S. on these things, "says Scott Walker of the Philanthropy Roundtable. "If you're in Sweden or France, it's something the government is supposed to do. If you were in England, it is the nobility. Americans don't think it's enough to say, ‘I gave at the office with taxes.’"Sweden or France:出现多个地点,地点强对比,有可能是考点所在9.

(A) Charities in European countries are run by the governmental department. (B)America should earnestly learn the practice of charity from France and Sweden. (C) European countries should learn from American charity. (D) The concept of American charity is different from that of European ones.

To be sure, business and philanthropy are old bedfellows in the United States. The Rockefellers, the Carnegies and the Fords set the mold. But many were what Mark Dowie, author of "American Foundations: An Investigative History, "calls" s. o. b. s"patrons of "symphonies, operas, ballets, "and "museums and hospitals where rich people go to die. "The new foundations are more like "quasi-public trusts progressive institutions of change, "argues Dowie. The new movers and shakers of American charity are more likely to be flashy TV titans like Ted Turner. The story of how Turner gave away a billion is a founding legend of this class. In a cab on his way to make a speech at the United Nations, the cable titan, sick of official U.S. reluctance to pay U.N. dues, decided to pony up 1 billion himself. This shamed Washington and inspired imitators. "It is a lot more personality-oriented in this culture of new wealth, "says Ellen Dadisman, vice president of the Council on Foundations. "It's sort of like wealth meets People magazine."pony up:一次性付清

In Silicon Vallsey, the new fashion is called "venture philanthropy. "According to one survey, 83 percent of valley households give to charity, compared with 69 percent nationally. But they prefer to "invest, "not "give. "And to attract "investors, "fund-raisers promise hands-on management of the nonprofits they support. hands-on management:参与管理方式nonprofit 非盈利机构They demand seats on the board, set performance goals and plan an exit strategy in case expectations aren't met. "Traditionally, foundations have not been as invasive, "says Dadisman. "They didn't go to the nonprofit and say, “How much are you paying for rent? Why are you using these old-fashioned computers?’"It may be invasive, but if it works it could help save the world. Even from asteroids.

10. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?(A) Charities will become profitable businesses in the future.

(B) More people in Silicon Valley give money to charity.

Mitsubishi Motors just announced plans to cut 10,000 jobs. Last week Nissan, now owned by Renault and answering to its tough-minded foreign boss, pledged to slash 16,500.

Mitsubishi's cuts will not take full effect until March 2004. Even Nissan's new chief operating officer, Carlos Ghosn, known to the world as “The Cost Killer,” will spread out the downsizing over three years. And Japan's companies are making many of their adjustments through attrition, hiring freezes, voluntary retirement buyouts and reassignment of employees to subsidiaries. What is striking about what is happening now is not that is represents a change in the way companies deal with workers, but that it shows remarkable continuity in nearly desperate economic times. But there is less to trend than meets the eye. Reading past the headlines有强转折词,本句很有可能是主题句第二句话很具体,不太可能是主题句What is striking引导的内容需要重点读17. Which of the following best paraphrases the statement “there is less to the trend than meets the eye” (Para.2)

(A) Everything can be observed through the trend. (B) The trend is superficial rather than fundamental. (C) The trend shows the continuity of Japanese recruiting practice.(D) The trend tells us little about the Japanese employment system.

For decades, American analysts have been predicting that a change in the Japanese ways of doing business was imminent. In good times, like the 60's or 80's, labor shortages and affluence were expected to lead employees to reject the status quo and start job hopping. In bad times, like the 70's or 90's, the pressure of the bottom line was expected to lead bosses “finally” to a proper market based system of employment.

Imminent:即将到来In good times与 In bad times的对应job hopping:跳槽The analysts who make these predictions do not understand the deep

historical roots of Japan's employment practices, roots sunk in its legal system, the structure of schools, its systems of job recruiting and skill development, its decades-old cooperative relations between companies and unions, and the implicit expectations we call culture.

On the very day of the Nissan announcement, a back-page story in Japanese newspapers showed how firm the grip of these foots can be. The game maker Sega had fired a 35 -year-old man for “lack of ability”. He protested with a lawsuit, and the courts ruled in his favor. They called the termination an “abuse of the right to fire,”decided the company had made “insufficient effort to train the employee” and ordered Sega to pay back wages. 本段用实例证明作者观点,反驳欧美学者的观点。20.

(A) the importance of economic reform in Japan ―― Japan does, of course, need economic reform. But the country's current crisis is rooted….

Japan does, of course, need economic reform. But the country's current crisis is rooted in a paralyzed financial system and stagnant consumer demand, especially at home. It is not a crisis of unproductive or lazy systems of industrial production. The financial system needs a thorough housecleaning, not only more transparent and effective regulation, but also internal reforms to insure that banks make more serious risk assessment when they start lending aggressively again. The country also needs public works spending and tax cuts to get commerce moving faster.(本段阐述了作者想要的解决方法)But it is probably a good thing that the Japanese system resists the sort of change that would

please the economic seers who thrill to misleading reports about huge employee cutbacks. A working person's prescription for change would first note that the cuts that have taken place, timid as they are by American standards, have shaken the confidence of consumers. Job security and stable wages, and public policies to insure them, could reduce fears and make people feel more comfortable about buying, increasing domestic demand and promoting recovery.

It is worth remembering that for several decades, with the familiar employment system in place, the productivity of Japanese industrial organizations and their ability to cope with shocks—like the oil crises or the tripling of the value of the yen against the dollar—was the envy of the world.cope with shocks:应付危机的能力16.

An engine starts sputtering; cause for alarm, sure, but the pilot does that folksy number—"Aw, shucks, little problem here"—and assures you the others can take the strain. Then a second engine goes out; the sweat trickles down your neck, but your reckon you'll make it to the ground safely. But if the third, and then the fourth, flame out Think of通常会引出一个具体的例子flame out突然冒火

The global economy hasn't crashed just yet. But a world—wide slowdown is giving analysts everywhere a bad case of the jitters. The key reason: this, says Robert Hormats, vice chairman of Goldman Sachs International, is "the first synchronized downturn since the 1980s," when high interest rates squeezed the world economy like an orange. During the last U.S. recession, 10years ago, Europe was in its post—cold war euphoria, while the Asian economies were the stuff of miracle. By the time a financial crisis declared the Asian tigers in 1997—98, the U.S. economy was in the middle of its technology boom.

从本段看出,文章讲的不是飞行问题而是经济问题。Why does the author begin the article with the description of one's flying experience?This is to compare the flying accident/experience with the global economic

situation.Just as the flying accident, the worldwide economic slowdown will

probably lead to aglobal economic crisis without proper management and control.

This time around, both the U.S. and German economies are flatlining, while that of Japan

continues its slow, downward spiral. The Japanese unemployment rate has risen to 5%, while the Nikkei stock market index last week touched lows not seen since 1984. The world's three most powerful engines are out of juice. Worry.

8、Explain the sentence from paragraph 4 "But globalization, it turns out, has a reverse gear."

第 8题词义句义题:考句子功能,找上下文抽象句, 关键是体现时间强对比。Why are this year's economic woes so widespread? Blame globalization, the increase in cross

—border trade and investment, that has bound the world economy closer together than ever before. In good times, globalization spreads the wealth. The astonishing growth of the U.S. economy in the lat 1990s spilled over into countries from Taiwan (which makes the microchips that power your computer) to Ireland (a prime destination for U.S. firms outsourcing manufacturing). But globalization, it turns out, has a reverse gear. Once it was plain—by last winter—that technology firms had vastly overestimated demand, the consequent retrenchment spread far beyond the Bay Area. Last week, for example, Baltimore Technologies, the jewel in Ireland's high—tech sector, slashed jobs in an effort to achieve profitability.

8、Explain the sentence from paragraph 4 "But globalization, it turns out, has a reverse gear."

When the economy is good, the globalization has positive effects on it, but during

bad times globalization also has the negative influences on it。答题技巧:把时间强对比表现在自己的答案中,可以获取较高的分数。

went to hell in a hand basket: the Great Depression of the 1930s.In truth, we're a long way from breadlines, and policymakers understand the forces that move the economy today much better than they did then. But one lesson of the 1930s is worth remembering. In an interconnected world, points out Jeffrey Garter, dean of the Yale school of management, a small spark can start a huge conflagration. In 1930 it looked as if the consequences of the 1929market crash might be contained; it was the collapse in 1931of the Austrian bank Creditanstalt that turned a market correction into a worldwide slump. Similarly, the global financial crisis of 1997—98 started with the devaluation of the Thai bath—though Thailand's whole economy is about the size of Kentucky's.

9、Why does the author mention the Great Depression of the 1930s?

The author uses the comparison between the current economic situation and the

1930sgreat Depression in order to illustration a good lesson worth remembering, that

is, asmall country financial crisis may lead to a global economic crash.

10、What do you know about the arguments over the $8 billion international rescue package for Argentina?

第 10题描述题:要用简洁的文字描述清楚事件、观点That's one reason why, after much dickering, the Administration last week signed off on an

$8 billion international rescue package for Argentina (an economy about the size of North lending tax dollars paid by American plumbers and retail clerks to a country that careens from one debt crisis to the next. But in the end, as Goldman Sachs' Hormats puts it, "pragmatism triumphed over ideology." If Argentina had defaulted on its debt, investors might have pulled out of other emerging markets, triggering a real crash. In a nervous world, It's best to avoid anything that leads to a loss of confidence. Might anything else tip the mood from mere gloom to catastrophe? "A huge amount," says Yale Garten, "is hinging on the American consumer." In today's planes, one really strong engine can get you safely to your destination. But expect a bumpy ride. Default 拖欠Trigger 引发

10、What do you know about the arguments over the $8 billion international rescue package for Argentina?

Despite some people were strongly against the rescue package, the American

government signed off the plan for Argentina which was in a debt crisis, because if

defaulting, Argentina will lose the confidence of investors, and hence this will trigger a

real crash.

中地区注重考研;华东地区注重中高级口译。3.大幅度提高英语应用能力工作注重口语、翻译和词汇量,而口语需要业务、专业方面的知识参加中高级口语考试,即使不通过,也是对自己能力的提高

二. 听译训练策略中高级口语考试中,翻译为重点,听译、笔译、口译的知识量大,形式多样(12:30-13:48)

1.先练听写-再练听译逐词记录,不怕反复,一句一句听,保证听写的正确性,然后再翻译2.化整为零-化零为整段落翻译信息太长,应循序渐进,把长段落划分为较短的部分后听写,随着能力的提高,逐步加大难度3.精听速记-笔录信息平时多做速记练习(shorthand writing),只抓关键词,抓住主谓宾、主系表,注意数字和时间例: Our families and communities are stronger. Crime is at a 25-year low. What’s more, over seven million Americans have been lifted out of poverty.单词记录方法:长单词,记首字母、简写;

直接写汉字;符号、标志

三. 笔译训练策略1.广泛收集各类词汇中级口译词汇为 6000,而对于高级口译则是 knows no bound许多词汇、短语不能直译,要精妙表达,要不择手段的收集词汇多读英文报纸,了解新闻术语,尤其是:政府新闻动态,网络科技术语、金融贸易术语、医疗体育术语、旅游级导游词、导游术语、医术文学表达等例:纳米技术:nanometer technology

克隆技术:cloning technology转基因食品:genetically modified food死机:system halted垃圾邮件:spam升值:appreciate上市:go IPO(initial public offering)海啸:tsunami猪链球菌病:pig disease affected by streptococcus suis禽流感:bird flu超级女生:Mongolian Cow Super Girl Contest海选:wide selection from a large number of candidates商品房:commercial residential houses经济适用房:economically affordable houses神舟六号发射:successfully launching of Shenzhou No.6 Space Shuttle地铁:metro/subway/tube

[键入文字]

轻轨:elevated train磁悬浮:magnetically levitated train

2.把握各种翻译手段翻译所追求的境界是:信、达、雅原则:翻译非一日之功,但大量的翻译可以提速   多读翻译方面的理论著作   运用增词法、减词法、换词法以及倒译、分译、合译等多种手段处理翻译3.参照样本英汉互译翻译练习不能只求数量,也要注重质量,要选择样本进行对照最开始可以使用杂志作为样本,以后可以使用小说等素材推荐杂志《英语世界》

四. 口译训练策略1.培养良好口译状态不要紧张,注意表情状态,训练前先做深呼吸冷静从容,发音清晰,吐字清楚、随机应变2.手脚并用突破段落适当记录关键词,对时间、数字要敏感3.进行三种口译训练(1) 偷听训练法听公车上、办公室身旁的人说什么,然后翻译,并说出来(2) 报纸训练法以报纸为素材,读一句,翻一句,遇见生词,马上查(3) 影片训练法找有兴趣的电影,精读、精听第一遍:先看情节,看中文字幕第二遍:英文字幕第三遍:没有字幕第四遍:关掉声音,看中(英)文字幕,做配音

三、中高级口译考试备考策略(一)听力部分备考策略提高口译听力水平的过程其实是不断丰富知识、发展技巧、锤炼自己分析、推断水平的综合能力训练。

M7英语听说教学法(见附图M7-bar)

第一步:保持冷静和自信的心理素质

203

Page 204: soft.xp666.com · Web view练短时记忆,别人说2 句话你要重复 说9 个内容,不相干,说5~7 个,每天练五分钟即可,可以是9 家著名公司,如intel.dell,ibm,apple

[键入文字]

第二步:根据语言传达的信息,把抽象的英语文字变成形象图画反映于脑海中。通过动态连续的画面,避开英汉互译的无序性,进而抓住表达的主干。运用英语形象性的特点对口译听力技能培养有以下帮助1、口译听力的语速很快,英语的形象性可以帮助我们迅速借助形象的画面记忆抽象的语言文字。

2、形象性思维帮助听者抓住听力内容的主干。3、形象性思维能够帮助我们猜测尚未听懂的部分。4、形象性思维能帮助我们进行连贯记忆。

第三步:对口译听力的练习不要盲目追求题海战术,应该把注意放到听过的历年真题上,并对真题中听力部分的细节进行认真模仿和分析。模仿的两个原则:1、简单原则

模仿那些语言结构简单、纯正的句子。2、精准原则模仿要达到惟妙惟肖、精益求精的地步。

第四步:学习大力补充、扩展听力材料中常用词汇和句式的其他用法和含义。

第五步:努力挖掘听力语言背后的思维模式和英美文化背景。

第六步:背诵记忆历年听力考试材料

第七步:认真走过前面六步,你将创造奇迹。

(二)口语部分备考策略何谓口语:语音、语调和节奏、用词表达、思维和文化

考生行之有效提高以上四方面能力的方法:四大结合四大结合:

1、input 与 output相结合,输入和输出的结合输入:平时多积累语言素材输出:大胆开口说英文

2、逻辑思维与形象思维相结合逻辑思维:口语表达中需要的严密的思辨意识理解能力。形象思维:变抽象文字为形象图画的思维方式。

3、Model 与Multiply相结合,模仿与扩展的结合模仿各种语言材料的各个细节。扩展就是在模仿跟读的基础上,大力发散和扩充高频口语词汇、句式的意思和使用方法。

4、Mine 与Memorize相结合,挖掘与背诵的结合挖掘了语言的内涵后加以有目的的背诵
