There is no doubt that the celebrity spokespeople could boost the sale of a product.

A host of celebrity spokespersons, however,have emerged as the marketing tool o f some companies, even companies producing and selling fake and inferior items. T his kind of behavior has produced negative impacts on consumers and whole societ y, which should be severely criticized and penalized. Of course, as is known to all, everything has both bright and dark sides. Some stars’ endorsement of social activiti es and public campaigns raises public awareness, giving rise to changes in public b ehavior.In this case,they serve as positive role models of the general public.

关于选秀节目

在过去几年里,各种节目的人才上出现了全国各地的电视频道,从超级女声到快乐男声等等。这种强烈的娱乐节目的类型是流行,尤其是年轻人当中,并制作了他们的学习和生活带来深刻影响。

有一些背后的潮流几个原因。首先,年轻的人需要学习的榜样。所以他们中的许多人在参与这些计划的选手疯狂。这引起了越来越多的这些节目,因为电视网络的出现,自然需要迎合年轻观众。另外,由于经济和政治改革所进行的政府来说,这一代青年作物有更多的自由和愿望,表达和展示自己。因此,越来越多的年轻人渴望得到这些节目中涉及。

这是一个分裂的话题。在我个人而言,才艺表演是轻松,有趣,可以极大地减轻我们的压力一个极好的手段。作为大学生,但是,我们不能再沉迷于他们,应该是研究极端重要性。

Over the past couple of years,a variety of talent shows have emerged on TV chan nels across the nation, from Super Girls to Happy Boys and so forth. This type of e ntertainment program is intensely popular, especially among young adults and has p roduced profound impacts on their studies and life.

There are a couple of reasons behind the tide. To start with, young folks need role models to learn from. So many of them are crazy for contestants participating in t hese programs. This gives rise to the increasing emergence of these shows because TV networks naturally need to cater to young audiences. Plus, thanks to economic and political reforms carried out by the government, this crop of young generation have more freedom and desire to express and showcase themselves. Therefore, a growing number of young people desire to get involved in these shows.

This is a divisive topic. On my personal level, the talent show is a superb means o f relaxing and amusing and can hugely relieve our strains. As college students, how

anever, we could not afford to indulge in themd should be aware of the utmost i mportance of studies.

a couple of 一对,几个,三两个;两三个;两个,几个。

a variety of 种种;各种各样,不同种类;多种多样的;若干不同的。

and so forth 等等,诸如此类,如此等等。

intensely 强烈地,极度;紧张地,认真地;热情地,热切地。

食品安全问题

对粮食安全

在过去几年里,食品丑闻的几起案件已被各种媒体上披露。粮食安全问题已经成为整个社会的热门话题。粮食不安全的患病率,极大地影响市民的健康,这是政府不能忽视,根据中华人民共和国网络版日报。

有一个驱动力的夫妇,我认为,这背后不可取的潮流。首先,在经济快速发展的过程中,我们忽视道德教育,从而引发了问题率的上升。更重要的是,充足的监管和惩罚这些非法生产者缺乏强制执行的趋势。

正如孔子的指示,这是亡羊补牢,未为晚。及时和应采取严格措施以扭转这种罪恶的趋势。政府应推行一项大规模的道德教育运动,所有公民和制定更严厉的法律,严厉打击那些不负责任的公司,并禁止再次进入食品行业的他们。我坚信,通过我们的共同努力,我们一定会在今后的日子里享受更多的无风险食品。

On the Food Security

Over the past couple of years, several cases of the food scandal have been disclose d on various media.The problem of food security has become a hot button across society. The prevalence of food insecurity has greatly impacted public health, which the government could not afford to ignore, according to the online edition of the P eople Daily.

There are a couple of driving forces, I would argue, behind this undesirable tide. Fi rst, in the course of the rapid economic evolution, we ignore moral education, givin g rise to the rising rate of the problem.More importantly,the lack of adequate reg ulation and punishment on those illegal producers enforces the trend.

As Confucius instructed, it is better late than never. Prompt and strict measures sho uld be taken to turn back this evil trend. The government should launch a massive moral campaign to educate all citizens and draw up tougher laws to crack down on those irresponsible corporations and prohibit them from entering the food industry again. I am firmly convinced that through our combined efforts we are bound to en joy more risk-free foods in the days ahead.

社会不文明现象

在不文明行为我们不能不注意到,无数的不文明行为存在于我们的日常生活中,如随地吐痰,大声说话,乱抛垃圾,在公共场所说讨厌的话等等。所有这些都是不礼貌的行为,我们不应该忽视的。作为一种古老的享受灿烂的文明跨越了5000

年的土地,中国正在经历的不当行为激增,每个公民都应该感到羞愧中的。由主机不文明行为,中国在国内和国外有严重影响中国的形象,据人民日报社论的官方网站上公布。

随着中国,我们不应该冒犯别人指出我们的弱点,而应着眼于提高自己更多的关注。我们应该努力找出这些不当行为的原因,并设法消除。有很多原因的主人,我会认为,这背后的趋势。这里仅一:道德教育的不足。政府应该发动一场大规模的道德运动,以对抗这种趋势,我们应该尽力表现自己,在我们的日常生活体面。作为新时代的大学生,我们应该发挥主导作用。

On Uncivilized Behaviors

We cannot fail to notice that countless uncivilized behaviors exist in our daily lives, such as spitting, talking loudly, littering, saying nasty words in public places and so forth. All these are bad manners that we should not lose sight of.As an ancient l and enjoying a splendid civilization spanning over 5,000 years, China is witnessing a surge in improper acts that every Chinese citizen should feel ashamed of. Uncivilize d behaviors by a host of Chinese both at home and abroad have seriously affected China’s image, according to an editorial posted on People Daily’s official website. As Chinese, we should not get offended when others point out our weaknesses but should focus more attention on improving ourselves. We should strive to identify th e causes of those improper behaviors and find ways to eliminate them. There are a host of causes,I would argue, behind this trend. To name only one: the lack of moral education. The government should wage a massive moral campaign to fight a gainst this trend and we ourselves should endeavor to behave decently in our daily lives. As college students of the new age, we should take the leading role.

感恩

对培养感恩心

在全国各地的大学校园里,有一个明显的现象,我们不能忽视:有太多的年轻大学生缺乏感恩,对这个灿烂的文明在5000年的跨越古老的土地上无数的传统美德之一的感觉。这些年轻的成年人没有,都不是表达谢意的巨大重要性的那些谁曾帮助他们,从教师到家长等等。

就个人而言,我认为没有一个优雅的心学生的根本原因是他们受教育不重视的道德领域。我坚信,从全社会的人们共同的努力是为这个社会头痛的最后补救措施。作为新时代的青年大学生,我们应该对这项事业我们自己的贡献。想象没有感恩意识的世界。这个世界是注定要失败的。简而言之,我们应该加入我们的双手来提高我们的意识培养优雅的心。只有这样,才能建设成一个和谐的社会。我的同学们,我求你从现在开始采取行动。

On Cultivating the Sense of Gratitude

On college campuses across the nation, there is a noticeable phenomenon that we cannot afford to ignore:far too many young college students lack the sense of grat itude, one of the countless traditional virtues of this ancient land with a splendid ci vilization spanning over 5,000 years. These young adults were not and are not awa

re of the huge importance of expressing gratitude to those who once helped them, from teachers to parents and so forth.

Personally,I deem that the root cause of students without a graceful heart is that they receive an education not valuing the moral sphere. I strongly believe that joint efforts from folks across society are the final remedy for this social headache. As young university students of the new era, we should make our own contributions to this cause.Imagine a world without the sense of gratitude. This kind of world is d oomed to failure. Simply put, we should j oin our hands to heighten our awareness of fostering a graceful heart.Only in this way can we build our society into a harm onious one. My fellow students, I beg you to act from now on.

大学生使用信用卡现象

与信用卡

目前,一个由各大银行发行的信用卡和购物卡,商场广泛vareity蓬勃发展的势头在全国各地高校和高校,与高校组成的学生证持有人不断增长的人口众多。事实上,五分之一的学生中,预计在至少拥有一张信用卡,这一数字预计将在稳定increse,扬子晚报的最新公布的数据显示后。

任何事情一样之前,这种塑料小片的出现,校园一卡通的信贷的日益普及同时具有光明和黑暗的方面。一方面,年轻人上大学,从偷窃一笔可观的现金无故障,可享受信用卡的便利性和分期付款购买昂贵的商品。另一方面,然而,该卡的不负责任,这些青少年过度使用,其中大部分是刚从中等学校预算的钱没有能力,可以使它们的债务沉重,将带他们年还清。

我个人的水平,同时享受着便利的主机可能带来的信用卡,我们不能忽视一个明显的事实:在大多数情况下,父母是没有任何限制我们唯一的消费金融来源。相反,我们都应该放在我们的首要任务,并提出自己的研究后,我们的父母以外的严重依赖

On Credit Card

At present, a wide vareity of credit cards issued by major banks and shopping mall s are thriving in colleges and universities across the nation, with a multitude of coll ege students making up a growing population of card holders.Indeed,one out of fi ve students is estimated to be in possession of at least one credit card, and the fig ure is expected to be on the steady increse, the latest data published by Yangtze E vening Post suggests.

Like anything prior to the emergence of this small piece of plastic, the increasing p opularity of credit card on campus has both bright and dark sides. On the one han d, young adults in college, free from the trouble of pocketing a considerable sum of cash, could enjoy the convenience of credit cards and purchase expensive goods b y installments. On the other hand, however, the irresponsible and excessive use of the cards by these youngsters, the majority of whom are fresh out of middle school incapable of budgeting their money, can make them heavily in debt which will tak e them years to pay off.

On my personal level, while enjoying a host of conveniences the credit card may br ing, we couldn’t afford to ignore a conspicuous fact: in most cases, parents are our sole financial sources.Instead of spending without any restrict, we are supposed to put studies on the top of our agenda and move ourselves beyond heavy dependen ce upon our parents

大学英语四级翻译技巧和复习策略

(一)大学英语四级翻译3大方法 积累常用词汇和词组 2013年12月的翻译内容涉及的多是有关中国传统文化,像:中国结(The Chinese knot),中餐(Chinese food),茶文化(Chinese tea)等。如果大家能够事前准备到一些中国传统文化的专有词汇,像:祈求好运、瑰宝、福、和、瓷器等,问题就会变得简单很多。 遗产heritage; legacy; inheritance,保护protect; safeguard; preserve; shelter,古人the ancients,古老的ancient。很多同学吐槽单词不会写,但也不能空着,一定要想到合适的表达,可以灵活地变通,比如:“第一流的”可以说成first-rate,也可以说成excellent,“尊敬”可以说成respect,也可以说成think highly of。当然要想灵活自如,备战过程中背诵积累是必不可缺的。 积累常见表达 翻译的文章主题和题材类似的情况下就会不可避免的出现一些重复表达,比如:Chinese tradition and culture中国传统和文化;the treasure of China 中国的瑰宝;an important part of... ...的重要组成部分;all over the country/ world遍布全国/全世界;the most popular最流行;most ..., while.... 很多(人)...,

而(另一些人)...。这些表达在介绍中国各种传统习俗时会频繁用到。因此,我们可以把一些常见的表达背诵下来。 平时多训练 改革后的四六级翻译题材贴近生活,翻译灵活性强,题目会给我们很大的发挥空间,一般都不会太难。只要大家平时做好了相应的训练,基本都可以做到灵活应对。例如这样的句型“烹饪不仅被视为一种技能,而且也被视为一种艺术”(cooking is considered as not only a skill but also an art);“精心准备的中餐既可口又好看”(The well-prepared Chinese food is both delicious and good-looking);“中餐既味美又健康”Chinese food is delicious as well as healthy;这里边就多次出现了大家熟悉的“不仅...而且...”“既...又...”句型表达。 (二)英语四级翻译技巧解析 一. 正确认识翻译技巧 从中国人进行的翻译定位上看,无论是英译汉还是汉译英,其根本问题都在译者的英语水平或造诣上。英译汉的题型,关键在于理解原文;而汉译英的题型,关键在于如何综合运用所学的英文知识,将我们原本理解的相当明白的汉语文字,以准确的英语通顺地表达出来。 笔者想提醒考生注意的是,各种翻译技巧只是工具。茅盾先生有一句话,如果两种语言的功底不够,那些技巧你也用不上;但若功底深厚,那些条条就成

2015年6月13日全国大学英语四级翻译真题及答案

2 015年6月13日全国大学英语四级翻译真题及答案 大米 在西方人心目中,和中国联系最为密切的基本食物是大米。长期以来,大米在中国人的饮食中占据很重要的地位,以至于有谚语说“巧妇难为无米之炊”。中国南方大多数种植水稻,人们通常以大米为食;而华北大部分地区因为过于寒冷或过于干燥,无法种植水稻,那里的主要作物是小麦。在中国,有些人用面粉做面包,但大多数人用面粉做馒头和面条。 In the mind of Westerners,Chinese people have the closest connection to rice,basic food for the Chinese.For a long time,rice occupies a very important position in the Chinese diet.There is even a saying that "even a clever housewife cannot cook a meal without rice".People in south China plant and live on rice,while people in the most parts of North China cannot plant rice due to excessively dry and cold weather. The main crop there is wheat. In China, some people use flour to bake bread,while most people make steamed bread and noodles with flour. xx 中国是世界上最古老的文明之一。构成现代世界基础的许多元素起源于中国。中国现在拥有世界上发展最快的经济,并正经历着一次新的工业革命。中国还启动了雄心勃勃的太空探索计划,其中包括到20年建成的一个太空站。目前,中国是世界最大的出口国之一,并正在吸引大量外国投资。同时,它也在海外投资数十亿美元。2011年,中国超越日本成为世界第二大经济体。 快递 据报道,今年中国快递服务(courier service)将递送大约120亿件包裹。这将使中国有可能超越美国成为世界上最大的快递市场。大多数包裹里装着网上订购的物品。中国给数百万在线零售商以极具竞争力的价格销售商品的机会。仅在11月11日,中国消费者就从国内最大的购物平台购买了价值90亿美元的商品。中国有不少这样的特殊购物日。因此,快递业在中国扩展就不足为奇了。

2014年英语四级短文翻译预测集锦

短文翻译集锦 1. 中秋习俗 在中国月饼是一种特殊的食品,广受海内外华人的欢迎。中秋节吃月饼就好比圣诞节吃馅饼(mince pies)。为了庆祝中秋节,中国人通常做两件事:一是观赏满月。二是品尝美味的月饼。中秋节是每年农历八月十五日。据说,这一天的月亮是一年中最圆的。而月亮正是庆贺中秋的全部主题。在中国人眼中,月饼象征着全家人的大团圆。 参考译文: Moon cakes are a special kind of food in China. They are very popular with the Chinese at home and abroad. Moon cakes are to Mid-Autumn Festival what mince pies are to Christmas. To celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival, Chinese usually do two things: enjoy the full moon and eat delicious moon cakes. Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar. It is the time when the moon is said to be at its brightest and fullest. And the moon is what this celebration is all about. In the eyes of the Chinese people, a moon cake symbolizes the reunion of all family members. 2.传统艺术 皮影戏又称“影子戏”。它是中国著名民间戏剧形式之一。表演时艺人通常一边演唱一边操纵用兽皮或纸板制作的人物形象。它们的影子通过灯光出现在帘布上。这营造了有人物在活动的幻象。有时表演者需要控制三到四个偶人。皮影戏在我国历史悠久,元代时还曾传到世界上很多国家,迷倒了不少国外戏迷,被人们亲切地称为“中国影灯”。 参考译文 The shadow puppet play, also known as ‘shadow play’, is one of China’s famous folk opera forms. During the performance, players usually sing while holing/manipulating human figures, which are made of animal skin and paper board. The shadows of those human figures are reflected on a curtain through the light. This creates the illusion of moving images. Sometimes the performer needs to control three or four puppets. Shadow puppet play enjoys a long history in China. It was introduced to many countries during the Yuan Dynasty and attracted many foreign audience. They call the art form Chinese shadow play. 3.社交饥渴 手机,是一项伟大的发明。但很显然,手机也刷新了人与人的关系。会议室门口通常贴着一条公告:请与会者关闭手机。可是,会议室里手机铃声仍然响成一片。我们都是普通人,并没有多少特别重要的事情。尽管如此,我们也不会轻易关掉手机。打开手机象征着我们与这个世界的联系。显然,手机反映出我们的“社交饥渴症”。(thirst for socialization) 参考译文 The cell phone is a great invention. But obviously, It has altered the relationship among people. There is usually a notice on the door of the meeting room, which reads, “Please turn off your hand-set.” However, phones ring now and then when the meeting goes on. We are but ordinary people and have few urgencies to tackle with. Never the less, we will not switch off our
