二、Reading Comprehensio(总题数:4,分数:40.00)

The head of the Library of Congress is to name Donald Hall, a writer whose deceptively simple language builds on images of the New England landscape, as the nation's 14th poet laureate today. Mr. Hall, a poet in the distinctive American tradition of Robert Frost, has also been a harsh critic of the religious right's influence on government arts policy. And as a member of the advisory council of the National Endowment for the Arts during the administration of George H. W. Bush, he referred to those he thought were interfering with arts grants as "bullies and art bashers. He will succeed Ted Kooser, the Nebraskan who has been the poet laureate since 2004. The announcement of Mr. Hall's appointment is to be made by James H. Billington, the Librarian of Congress. Mr. Billington said that he chose Mr. Hall because of "the sustained quality of his poetry, the reach and the variety of things he talks about." Like Mr. Kooser, Mr. Billington said," Mr. Hall evokes a sense of place. Mr. Hall, 77, lives in a white clapboard farmhouse in Wilmot, N. H., that has been in his family for generations. He said in a telephone interview that he didn't see the poet laureateship as a bully pulpit. "But it's a pulpit anyway," he said. "If I see First Amendment violations, I will speak up." Mr. Hall is an extremely productive writer who has published about 18 books of poetry, 20 books of prose and 12 children's books. He has won many awards, including a national Book Critics Circle Award in 1989 for "The One Day", a collection. In recent years much of his poetry has been preoccupied with the death of his wife, the poet Jane Ken-yon, in 1995. Robert Pinsky, who was poet laureate from 1997 to 2000 said he welcomed Mr. Hall's appointment, especially in light of his previous outspokenness about politics and arts. "There is something nicely symbolic, and maybe surprising," Mr. Pinsky said, "that they have selected someone who has taken a stand for freedom. " The position carries an award of $ 35, 000 and $ 5, 000 travel allowance. It usually lasts a year, though poets are sometimes reappointed.(分数:10.00)

Most of us are taught to pay attention to what is said — the words. Words do provide us with some information, but meanings are derived from so many other sources that it would hinder our effectiveness as a partner to a relationship to rely too heavily on words alone. Words are used to describe only a small part of the many ideas we associate with any given message. Sometimes we can gain insight into some of those associations if we listen for more than words. We don't always say what we mean or mean what we say. Sometimes our words don't mean anything except "I'm letting off some steam. I don't really want you to pay close attention to what I'm saying. Just pay attention to what I'm feeling." Mostly we mean several things at once. A person wanting to purchase a house says to the current owner, "This step has to be fixed before I'll buy. "The owner says, "It's been like that for years." Actually, the step hasn't been like that for years, but the unspoken message is; "I don't want to fix it. We put up with it. Why can't you?" The search for a more expansive view of meaning can be developed through examining a message in terms of who said it, when it occurred, the related conditions or situation, and how it was said. When a message occurs can also reveal associated meaning. Let us assume two couples do exactly the same amount of kissing and arguing. But one couple always kisses after an argument and the other couple always argues after a kiss. The ordering of the behaviors may mean a great deal more than the frequency of the behavior. A friend's unusually docile behavior may only be understood by noting that it was preceded by situations that required an abnormal amount of assertiveness. Some responses may be directly linked to a developing pattern of responses and defy logic. For example, a person who says " No!" to a serials of charges like "You're dumb," "You're lazy," and "You're dishonest," may also say "No!" and try to justify his or her response if the next statement is " And you're good looking. " We would do well to listen for how messages are presented. The words, "It sure has been nice to have you over," can be said with emphasis and excitement or ritualistically. The phrase can be said once or repeated several times. And the meanings we associate with the phrase will change accordingly. Sometimes if we say something infrequently

it assumes more importance; sometimes the more we say something the less importance it assumes.(分数:10.00)

(1).Effective communication is rendered possible between two conversing partners, if______.(分数:2.00)

A.they use proper words to carry their ideas

B.they both speak truly of their own feelings

C.they try to understand each other's ideas beyond words

D.they are capable of associating meaning with their words

(2)."I'm letting off some steam" in paragraph 1 means______.(分数:2.00)

A.I'm just calling your attention

B.I'm just kidding

C.I'm just saying the opposite

D.I'm just giving off some sound

(3).The house-owner's example shows that he actually means______.(分数:2.00)

A.the step has been like that for years

B.he doesn't think it necessary to fix the step

C.the condition of the step is only a minor fault

D.the cost involved in the fixing should be shared

(4).Some responses and behaviors may appear very illogical, but are justifiable if______.(分数:2.00)

A.linked to an abnormal amount of assertiveness

B.seen as one's habitual pattern of behavior

C.taken as part of an ordering sequence

D.expressed to a series of charges

(5).The word " ritualistically" in the last paragraph equals something done______.(分数:2.00)

A.without true intention

B.light-heartedly

C.in a way of ceremony

D.with less emphasis

Cellular slime molds are extraordinary life forms that exhibit features of both fungi and protozoa, although often classed for convenience with fungi. At one time they were regarded as organisms of ambiguous taxonomic status, but more recent analysis of DNA sequences has shown that slime molds should be regarded as inhabiting their own separate kingdom. Their uniqueness lies in their unusual life cycle, which alternates between a feeding stage in which the organism is essentially unicellular and a reproductive stage in which the organism adopts a multicellular structure. At the first stage they are free-living, separate amoebae, usually inhabiting the forest floor and ingesting bacteria found in rotting wood, dung, or damp soil. But their food supplies are relatively easily exhausted since the cells' movements are restricted and their food requirements rather large. When the cells become starved of nutrition, the organism initiates a new genetic program that permits the cells to eventually find a new, food-rich environment. At this point, the single-celled amoebae combine together to form what will eventually become a multicellular creature. The mechanism by which the individual members become a single entity is essentially chemical in nature. At first, a few of the amoebae start to produce periodic chemical pulses that are detected, amplified, and relayed to the surrounding members, which then move toward the pulse origin. In time, these cells form many streams of cells, which then come together to form a single hemispherical mass. This mass sticks together through the secretion of adhesion molecules. The mass now develops a tip, which elongates into a finger-like structure of about 1 or 2 millimeters in length. This structure eventually falls over to form a miniature slug, moving as a single entity orienting itself toward light. During this period the cells within the mass differentiate into

two distinct kinds of cell. Some become prestalk cells, which later form into a vertical stalk, and others form prespore cells, which become the spore head. As the organism migrates, it leaves behind a track of slime rather like a garden slug. Once a favorable location has been found with a fresh source of bacteria to feed on, the migration stops and the colony metamorphoses into a fungus-like organism in a process known as "culmination." The front cells turn into a stalk, and the back cells climb up the stalk and form a spherical-shaped head, known as the sorocarp. This final fruiting body is about 2 millimeters in height. The head develops into spores, which are dispersed into the environment and form the next generation of amoebae cells. Then the life cycle is repeated. Usually the stalk disappears once the spores have been released. The process by which the originally identical cells of the slime mold become transformed into multicellular structures composed of two different cell types —spore and stalk — is of great interest to developmental biologists since it is analogous to an important process found in higher organisms in which organs with highly specialized functions are formed from unspecialized stem cells. Early experiments showed which parts of the slime mold organism contributed to the eventual stalk and which parts to the head. Scientists stained the front part of a slug with a red dye and attached it to the back part of a different slug. The hybrid creature developed as normal. The experimenters then noted that the stalk of the fruiting body was stained red and that the spore head was unstained. Clearly, the anterior part of the organism culminated in the stalk and the posterior part in the spore head. Nowadays, experiments using DNA technology and fluorescent proteins or enzymes to label the prespore and prestalk cells have been undertaken. This more molecular approach gives more precise results than using staining dyes but has essentially backed up the results of the earlier dye studies.(分数:10.00)

(1).How the slime should be classified used to be______.(分数:2.00)

A.unknown

B.uncertain

(3).All of the followings are mentioned in the text as being parts of the multicellular slug EXCEPT______.(分数:2.00)

A.the head

B.the stalk

D.spores

(4).Why does the author refer to the fungus-like organism as a fruiting body?(分数:2.00)

A.Because it has become one entity.

B.Because it is 2 millimeters in height.

C.Because it now has a stalk and head.

(5).According to the passage, the recent DNA studies______.(分数:2.00)

D.have introduced confusion about the dye study results

Barry Schwartz did not expect to feel inspired on a clothes-shopping trip. "I avoid buying jeans;

I wear one pair until it falls apart," says Schwartz, an American psychology professor. "The last time I had bought a pair there had been just one style. But recently I was asked if I wanted this fit or that fit, or this color or that. I intended to be out shopping for five minutes but it took an hour, and I began to feel more and more dissatisfied. "This trip made him think: did more choice always mean greater satisfaction? " I'd always believed that choice was good, and more choice was better. My experience got me thinking: how many others felt like me?" The result was a widely discussed study that challenged the idea that more is always better. Drawing on the psychology of economics, which looks at how people choose what to buy, Schwartz designed a questionnaire to show the differences between what he termed "maximisers" and "satisficers." Broadly speaking, maximisers are keen to make the best possible choices, and often spend time researching to ensure that their purchases cannot be bettered. Satisficers are the easy-going people, delighted with items that are simply acceptable. Schwartz puts forward the view, which contrasts with what politicians and salesmen would have people believe, that the unstoppable growth in choice is in danger of ruining lives. "I'm not saying no choice is good. But the average person makes at least 200 decisions every day, and I don't think there's room for any more. "His study may help to explain the peculiar paradox of the wealthy West —psychologists and economists are puzzled by the fact that people have not become happier as they have become richer. In fact, the ability to demand whatever is wanted whenever it is wanted has instead led to rising expectations. The search for perfection can be found in every area of life from buying soap powder to selecting a career. Certain decisions may automatically close off other choices, and some people are then upset by the thought of what else might have been. Schwartz says, "If you make a decision and it's disappointing, don't worry about it, it may actually have been a good decision, just not as good as you had hoped." One fact that governments need to think about is that people seem more inclined to buy something if there are fewer, not more, choices. If that's true for jeans, then it is probably true for cars, schools and pension funds. "If there are few options, the world doesn't expect you to make the perfect decision. But when there are thousands it's hard not to think there's a perfect one out there, and that you'll find it if you look hard enough. If you think that Internet shopping will help, think again: "You want to buy something and you look at three websites. How long will it take to look at one more? Two minutes? It's only a click. Before you know it you've spent three hours trying to decide which £10 item to buy. It's crazy. You've used another evening that you could have spent with your friends. " Schwartz, who describes himself as a natural satisficer, says that trying to stop our tendency to be maxi-misers will make us happier. "The most important recommendation I can give is to lower personal expectations," he says. "But no one wants to hear this because they all believe that perfection awaits the wise decision maker. Life isn't necessarily like that."(分数:10.00)

暨南大学英语作文2

MEMO TO:Caferoma’s Managing Director,Mario Cumino Form: Huang Weijun Date: 18 April Subject: My opinion about how to solve the problems We have realized the problems our company faced and we have talked a lot about it at the meeting.Now I’d like to talk about my opinion. As far as I am concerned,there is no doubt that we should do more advertising since consumers have become less loyal to brands and there are much more competitors at present.By advertising,we can improve our brand’s reputation. What I think the most important thing is that we should develop multiple brands and make some new products.The reasons are follow:Firstly,supermarkets have been producing,under their own label,similar products to Caferoma at much lower prices.As a result,our old product lost competitive power.So we can make some new product at low pricen to expand our maket share.Secondly,consumer surveys show that our brand no longer conveys a feeling of excitement and enthusiasm.If we can develop multiple brands,we may change this situation. However,I don’t believe that we should repositioning the product and reduce the price.We brand should focus on high quality but we can develop multipe brands to improve competitiveness.

2020年厦门大学翻译硕士考研笔记及总体要求

2020年厦门大学翻译硕士考研笔记及总体要求 在翻译硕士MTI备考实践中,教辅是否有效,是否物有所值,主要看例证是否详实、论理是否透彻、练习是否有针对性,而从目前看,教辅选择中混入了不少市场营销成分,所谓“学长推荐”“高校推荐”“培训机构推荐”归根结底是“书商推荐”,是利益作祟,而由于我国目前还没有完善的知识产权保护机制和行之有效的保护措施,大部分教辅的作者、编者可能并未因为其教辅的大卖而获得相应的收益。特别是部分人为炒作的教辅,其知名度已经远远超过了实用性,考生购买大都不是为了认真研读,而是盲目跟风或求“心理安慰”的结果。这就好像,一说到非文学翻译,就得看《报告》;一说到文学翻译,就得看《散文》——翻硕备考俨然成为《报告》《散文》各占半壁江山的格局,可能连中央编译局翻译处的同志和张培基先生也不清楚为什么自己或出于工作需要或出于兴趣使然的译作居然成了连续多年畅销不衰的“抢手货”,可能最终受益的学生不多,受益的作者也很少,书商成了最大的赢家——谁说纸媒“非死不可”?那是因为没有适销对路。教辅本来就是公认的暴利行业,而这类教辅虽然受众群有限,但基本上“全面覆盖无死角”,销售总量和可能利益都比较客观,是“暴利中的暴利”。 买来书的这些同学,有很多还远远谈不上分析、鉴赏译文,那最佳的学习策略无疑就是背诵了。不少人非常同意背诵,经常援引《新概念英语》的例子说:老师们从小就告诉我,致经典是学习外语的不二法门,因此让我们背诵《新概念》,最好从第一册到第四册一篇不落的背——我们为这种治学精神感动,但还是要指出一点:译文和母语人士的作文是一回事么?好的译文就能等于好的作文么?如果真是这样,那我们何必在高校单独开设翻译和写作两门课程?为什么要在英语考试中分设翻译和写作两个题型?显然,译文不可能等于作文,背是一个手段,但不是目的;期辅助作用,而不是决定作用,如果把这两点本末倒置,就会产生“唯经典是从”的不利影响。 不少教师在翻译教学中经常援引张培基译李大钊《艰难的国运与雄健的国民》一文中对“我们的民族精神……穿过三峡”一句中“穿过”一词的英译,这一点上师生之间往往看法不一:老师们说张培基先生用negotiate一词表示“穿过”,真是既正式又贴切;但学生以为,在一般的字典上基本上查不到negotiate一词有“穿过”的意思,即使能查到的字典上也会注明“穿过”这一义项为罕见用法,难道老师的意思就是让我们用难词,用长句么?这样一来,翻译学习和实践不又回到了原点了么?

2018年11月翻译资格考试二级英语笔译实务真题及答案

2018年11月翻译资格考试二级英语笔译实务真题及答案 【英译中】【Passage 1】 New drone footage gives a glimpse of the damage that Hawaii’s Big Island sustainedin the wake of volcanic explosions in recent days. Smoke can be seen billowing off the lava as it creeps down roads and through wooded areas toward homes. Fires are visible with terrifying streams of brightness breaking through the surrounding areas of black. After a day of relative calm, Kilauea roared back in full force on Sunday,spewing lava 300 feet in the air, encroaching on a half mile of new ground and bringing the total number of destroyed structures to 35. 从无人机拍摄到的最新视频中,可以大概了解到近日火山喷发后,夏威夷大岛所遭受的损失情况。火山岩浆在道路上、树林里蔓延,直逼住家,岩浆所到处浓烟滚滚。在一片漆黑中可见多处大火,火光十分刺眼。基拉韦厄火山经过相对平静的一天后,周日又火力全开,将岩浆喷到300英尺高空,又侵蚀了半英里土地,共有35处建筑遭摧毁。 There have been 1,800 residents evacuated from their neighborhoods where cracks have been opening and spilling lava. In evacuated areas with relatively low sulfur dioxide levels, residents were allowed to return home for a few hours to collect belongings on Sunday and Monday. Officials said those residents – a little more than half of the evacuees — were allowed to return briefly, and they would continue to allow residents in if it could be done safely. 由于地面开裂、岩浆涌出,1800社区居民被疏散。周六周日,在二氧化硫浓度不高的被疏散区域,居民获准回家几个小时收拾家中物品。当地官员称,这些居民——约占被疏散居民总数的半数多些——被准许回家短暂停留,并且在保证安全的前提下,允许其他居民回家。 “Things got pretty active,” an official said at a Saturday press conference. “The eight volcanoes were pretty active, to the point where lava was spewing and the flow started spreading so we got additional damage out there. I’m not sure what the count is, but we thought it was just continuing to go. Fortunately, seismicity has laid down and the volcanoes have gone quiet now.” But officials had cautioned that while the lava flow was quiet, it wouldn’t be for long. “More volcanoes could open up, the existing ones could get active again.” There’s a lot of lava under the ground so eventually it’s going to come up.” “这些火山变的很活跃,”一位官员在周六举行的新闻发布会上称,“有八个火山变的很活跃,岩浆喷出后,四处扩散,因此我们那里损失又多了些。我现在还不了解损失总数,但我们认为这个数字仍在不断攀升。庆幸地是,现在地震强度已经减弱,火山也开始平息下来了。”但是官员警告称,虽然岩浆流动慢下来了,但是不会维持太久。“还有更多地火山可能会爆发,现有的火山可能再次变得活跃。”地表下面有许多岩浆,这些岩浆最终会喷发出来。

暨南大学英语专业(外国语言学及应用语言学方向)考研帖

暨南大学英语专业(外国语言学及应用语言学方向)考研帖 先简单介绍一下个人情况:初试排名第二,总分406。复试排名第一。外国语言学及应用语言学方向。希望我的经验能给想考暨大的童鞋一点参考。 关于择校:去你想去的地方。之所以选择广州的学校,就是因为非常想去广州。广州是一个很open又很包容很务实的地方,对外语外贸类专业的人才需求比较大,这与我目标契合。因我在本科期间重心都放在语言学上,所以择校时避开了那些初试不考察专业课的学校。就我的观察,暨大真的是很公平,负责研究生管理的老师也和我们说,暨大招人不看重毕业学校之类的因素,关键看学生素质和能力。 政治:理解与背诵并重。个人觉得在政治上花的时间有点多,我从暑假就开始看文都的教材了=。=暑假的时候过了一遍,主要是熟悉和理解课本,九、十月份又过了一遍,同时开始训练选择题,十一、十二月继续做选择题并开始背大题。除了文都的全套教材,我还做了命题人1000题,觉得有点繁琐了,看同学用的蒋中挺的800题貌似不错。冲刺还背了肖4,经典。很多人觉得政治就是背,其实不然。你仔细研究真题就会发现,尤其是多选题,如果你只背不理解,那么选择题的正确率是很难提高的。理解了再背诵也不容易忘。也有很多人在临考前一两个月突击背诵,说背的太早还是会忘。这个因人而异,基础不同,目标不同。多背几遍无坏处的。不管报不报班,自己都要下功夫。热点问题一定要看,非热点也不能放,出题人会反猜题的,今年就是。 二外法语:要重视二外。暨大的二外和专业课都没有指定教材,我还是按10年的指定参考书复习的。从暑假开始看简法,一共看了两遍。前42课看的很认真,语法词汇课文课后习题都不放过(今年的法译汉来自课后小短文)。42课之后的浏览一下。暨大的二外还是比较简单的,题型包括单选,完填,阅读,改错,翻译和写作(忘了有木有填空,囧)不过貌似每年的题型都有点小变动,所以我复习的时候各个题型都练了,基础知识打牢了怎么变都不怕哈~推荐法语考研必备和圣才的历年真题,相当好,要认真做。有童鞋看到二外作文就怕了,我当初也是急的不行,觉得自己顶多憋出一两个句子。好在暨大只要求150字,其实在看简法的时候,背的单词和句型都能运用到写作中。最后一个月的时候,我在网上搜了很多法语作文,每天背一两篇,考试的时候都派上了用场。和专业课相比,二外和政治都是比较容易拉分的,在普遍高分的情况下,政治和二外的差距也许会很致命。所以一定一定要重视。 英语水平测试:日积月累。水平测试就是考察英语能力,我是通过做专项训练来提高。词汇就是背如鱼得水记单词,平时阅读见到的生单词词组也都会抄下来背。有同学背环球的英研核心词汇,那里面的词汇大部分比较生僻,暨大没有考特别偏的词汇。其余部分的专项训练都是用的星火,还做了星火的基础英语名校真题,很好,推荐。今年的翻译和写作都弄得我措手不及。据说以前的翻译都是和政治经济相关,我就认真地把高口的书给看了,结果今年考的偏文学的散文,我当时那个恨啊!好在平时有点老底=。=作文一直是我的弱项,今年真是更弱了,暨大的作文是写自传!给了一篇林肯的自传,让你仿写一篇。看到题目的那一刹那

2013到2011年CATTI二级笔译真题及参考答案

2013年11月英语二级《笔译实务》试题 Part A Compulsory Translation(必译题) The archivists requested a donkey, but what they got from the mayor‘s office were four wary black sheep, which, as of Wednesday morning, were chewing away at a lumpy field of grass beside the municipal archives building as the City of Paris‘s newest, shaggiest lawn mowers. Mayor Bertrand Delano? has made the environment a priority since his election in 2001, with popular bike- and car-sharing programs, an expanded network of designated lanes for bicycles and buses, and an enormous project to pedestrianize the banks along much of the Seine. The sheep, which are to mow (and, not inconsequentially, fertilize) an airy half-acre patch in the 19th District intended in the same spirit. City Hall refers to the project as ―eco-grazing,‖ and it notes that the four ewes will prevent the use of noisy, gas-guzzling mowers and cut down on the use of herbicides. Paris has plans for a slightly larger eco-grazing project not far from the archives building, assuming all goes well; similar projects have been under way in smaller towns in the region in recent years. The sheep, from a rare, diminutive Breton breed called Ouessant, stand just about two feet high. Chosen for their hardiness, city officials said, they will pasture here until October inside a three-foot-high, yellow electrified fence. ―This is really not a one-shot deal,‖ insisted René Dutrey, the adjunct mayor for the environment and sustainable development. Mr. Dutrey, a fast-talking man in orange-striped Adidas Samba sneakers, noted that the sheep had cost the city a total of just about $335, though no further economic projections have been drawn up for the time being. A metal fence surrounds the grounds of the archives, and a security guard stands watch at the gate, so there is little risk that local predators — large, unleashed dogs, for instance — will be able to reach the ewes. Curious humans, however, are encouraged to visit the sheep, and perhaps the archives, too. The eco-grazing project began as an initiative to attract the public to the archives, and informational panels have been put in place to explain what, exactly, the

2015+-2016catti二笔真题英语二级笔译

2016.11 CATTI 英语二级笔译实务科目试题 E-C Passage 1 Everyone knows that weddings—the most elaborate and costly form of old school pageantry still acceptable in modern society—are stupid expensive. But it turns out Americans are now blowing even more money than ever before on what‘s supposed to be the most magical day of any couple‘s life together. Money that, to be honest, could be spent on much, much cooler stuff. The Knot released its annual wedding survey this week, with findings showing that couples are spending a mind-numbing average of $32,641 on matrimonial celebrations. The study includes data from nearly 18,000 pairs across the country. While the cost of a wedding varied greatly from city to city—reaching a nauseating high of $82,300 in Manhattan—the price was steep no matter where couples chose to get hitched. All this despite the fact that weddings (and marriages in general, honestly) can be a fairly impractical thing to invest in. Seriously, even 50 Cent doesn‘t spend as much in a day as you‘re spending on a reception band alone. Think about that. So rather than buying into the Marriage Industrial Complex on a union that may or may not work out, wouldn‘t it make more sense to save your hard-earned money by forgoing the big ceremony for the major expenses you‘re likely to face in married life? You know, like a mortgage. Or braces for your wallet-draining children-to-be. And if your fianceé is dead set on a fairytale wedding? You could always just blow your financial load on a plenty fulfilling single life. With nearly $33,000 to spend in the life of a singledom, you could get pretty far when it comes to amenities and entertainment. Perhaps the best part of being free from the shackles of wedding planning is the opportunity to treat yourself. Like, why drop $1,400 on a frilly dress you‘ll wear once before it turns to moth food when you can rock the most expensive shoes of the season and look great doing it? And while weddings are supposed to be all about the happy couple, everyone knows that‘s bull, because you have to feed your guests and provide them entertainment and put a roof over their heads for a couple of hours and likely go into debt doing it. In addition to simply having fun, there are some more practical ways to spend your wedding purse as well. For instance, purchasing and providing for a nice house cat rather than dropping major dough on finger bling intended for fending off hotties for the rest of your life. Fluffy won‘t care if you bring home someone new every weekend—he‘ll just hate everyone i ndiscriminately. Passage 2 My teenage son recently informed me that there is an Internet quiz to test oneself for narcissism. His friend had just taken it. ―How did it turn out?‖ I asked. ―He says he did great!‖ my son responded. ―He

暨南大学考博英语题型分析

2015暨南大学考博英语历年真题 一、招考介绍 从整体上看,由于博士生招生形势的不断发展各院校博士生入学考试的难度越来越大,对考生的外语水平要求也越来越高,特别是听、说能力。攻读博士学位的学生,一方面应该具备坚实的专业理论基础和扎实的科研能力,另一方面还应该具备较高水平的外语能力。 二、暨南大学考博英语题型 Part1:词汇和结构,15分,30道题 Part2:完型5分,10道题 Part3:阅读理解,40分,4篇20个小题 Part4:翻译,英译汉15分,5个句子 Part5:写作,25分,一个10分,一个15分 三、考博英语必备参考书 育明考博教研部主编,河北大学出版社出版的《考博英语真题解析》和《考博词汇》是考博人必备的两本书。在当当网,亚马逊和全国各大书店均有销售,也可以联系我们直接购买。 四、联系导师 在初步定好考博学校之后,就要和所报考院校中意的老师取得联系,询问是否有招生名额,能否报考,这是我们考博成功的关键第一步。 大多数考生会在九月中下旬与导师取得联系。因为太早,学校里面直博名额什么的还没有确定,报考的导师也不清楚是否有名额;太晚的话,怕别的学生比你早联系就不好了。一般情况下,导师对一个学生很中意的话,后来联系的学生,导师一般也不会答应其报考了。在此说点题外话,联系导师的过程中,如果读研期间的导师有关系,可以尽量利用。如果没有,也没关系,凭着自己的本事也是可以和考博导师很好的沟通的,这就要看自己了。 通常跟导师初次联系,都是发邮件。导师回复邮件的情况一般有几种: (1)、欢迎报考。这种答复最笼统,说明不了问题。我们可以接着努力和老师多沟通,看看具体的进展,避免出现初试之后却没有名额的情况。 (2)、名额有限,可以报考,但有竞争。很多人说这样的回复不满意,认为希望很小一般会被刷。

2018年下半年CATTI英语二级笔译实务真题

2018年下半年CATTI英语二级笔译实务真题 (总分:100.00,做题时间:180分钟) 一、英译汉(总题数:2,分数:50.00) 1. Passage 1 New drone footage gives a glimpse of the damage that parts of Hawaii's Big Island sustained in the wake of volcanic explosions in recent days.Smoke can be seen billowing off the lava as it creeps down roads and through wooded areas toward homes.Fires are visible with terrifying streams of brightness breaking through the surrounding areas of black.After a day of relative calm, Kilauea roared back in full force on Sunday, spewing lava 3,00 feet in the air, encroaching on a half mile of new ground and bringing the total number of destroyed structures to 35.There have been 1,800 residents evacuated from their homes in the Leilani Estates and Lanipuna Gardens neighborhoods where cracks have been opening and spilling lava.In evacuated areas with relatively low sulfur dioxide levels, residents were allowed to return home for a few hours to collect belongings on Sunday and Monday. Officials said those residents -- a little more than half of the evacuees -- were allowed to return briefly, and Magno said they would continue to allow residents in if it could be done safely. "Things got pretty active," an official said at a Saturday press conference." The eight volcanoes were pretty active, to the point where lava was spewing and the flow started spreading so we got additional damage out there. I'm not sure what the count is, but we thought it was just continue to go. Fortunately, seismicity has laid down and the vents have gone quiet now." But officials had cautioned that while the lava flow was quiet, it wouldn't be for long." More volcanoes could open up, the existing ones could get active again. There's a lot of lava or magma under the ground so eventually it's going to come up."The island was also rocked by a 6.9-magnitude earthquake on Friday, which caused landslides near the coast, but minimal structural damage. The United States Geological Survey (USGS) said Sunday the island had experienced more than 500 earthquakes -- 13 with a magnitude greater than 4.0 -- in the 24 hours following the 6.9-magnitude quake.The concern for residents continues to be the lava and gas emitted from vents, though. "This is lava, that is definitely destroying people's homes -- we don't have an exact count -- but it is a devastating situation and it's going to be everyday that it goes on," Hawaii County Managing Director Wil Okabe said Saturday. "Mother nature, there's no way we could've predicted this."
