(41~45/共20题)SECTION 2 READING TEST

Directions: In this section you will read several passages. Each one is followed by several questions about it. You are to choose ONE best answer, (A), (B), (C) or (D), to each question. Answer all the questions following each passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in that passage and write tile letter of the answer you have chosen in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.

A major study of the grocery-buying habits of millions of Americans released late last year found that people using food stamps generally make the same unhealthy food choices as everyone else in America. Too many sweets, salty snacks and prepared desserts. Junk food, in other words. But when it came to soda and its sugary ilk, the results were more surprising, and not in a good way. According to the USDA-funded study, shoppers using food stamps spent a larger share of their budget—9.25% to be exact—on sugar-sweetened beverages than other shoppers. Even more startling Food-stamp shoppers bought more soda than any other single grocery item.

The new data revived an old debate about banning soda from the $71 billion food-stamp program. In February, the House Agriculture Committee held a hearing to gather testimony about the pros and cons of such a restriction. It does seem counterproductive to spend billions of taxpayer dollars in an effort to improve the nutrition of low-income Americans on a product with little or no nutritional value. It is called the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, after all. And soda had been identified as one of the prime culprits in soaring U.S. obesity and Type 2 diabetes rates.

The study and committee debate raised some of the same uncomfortable issues that have caused the proposal to languish in the past. On the conservative side, folks have worried that this type of nannystate regulation will lead to other heavy-handed health-related restrictions. Liberals, meanwhile, have been concerned that it is patronizing and punitive to tell people how to spend their government benefits. Add in the opposition from beverage industry lobby and it′s no surprise this idea hasn′t gotten very far when it′s been proposed. In recent years, a handful of states and cities have tried to impose such a requirement, but were blocked by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

The difference now is that the attitude toward soda has rapidly soured as more evidence has poured in that beverages with added sugars are making people fat and sick. The USDA has issued dietary guidelines warning people to limit their consumption of food with added sugars, the largest sources of which are sweetened beverages. This belief helped San Francisco, Philadelphia and handful of other cities push through new taxes on soda. A handful more are considering their own soda levies.

We know that there are detrimental health effects of drinking lots of soda, but we don′t know if barring SNAP recipients from spending their benefits on soda will really improve their health. It′s worth finding out by undertaking a limited pilot program, regardless of the qualms we may

have about imposing restraints on the poor that better-off Americans don′t face. The assumption is that those billions of dollars not going to buy Coke will be spent on healthier food. But that may not be the case. What if consumption of other sugary items increases Or if SNAP recipients simply transferred their sweet drink habit ounce-for-ounce to more expensive and still sugar-laden fruit juice Or if they spent their non-SNAP money on soda Before making a permanent change, we need to know if it would improve nutrition or be pointlessly punitive.

But it is a good step to take to gather data. And the argument that it would be too hard on grocers to carve out sugary drinks doesn′t hold water. As the study shows, modern grocery check stand technology is sophisticated enough to easily separate out purchases by UPC code. Indeed, SNAP already comes with restrictions on alcohol, tobacco and hot foods. Grocers don′t have a problem sorting them out. The Women, Infant and Children food-assistance program is even more prescriptive, permitting only specific items to be purchased milk, cheese, cereal and formula, for example, but absolutely nothing with added sugar or artificial sweetener. Ideally, a pilot program would also find ways to improve access to safe drinking water. Denying poor people the ability to use food aid to buy a Coke on a hot day may raise some unsettling questions. Yet the findings in the USDA′s study about excessive soda consumption shouldn′t be ignored.

第41题

A.The investigation of the grocery-buying habits of Americans.

B.New taxes on soda to be levied to restrict the use of food stamps.

C.A comparison between SNAP and Women, Infant and Children food-assistance program.

Directions: In this section you will read several passages. Each one is followed by several questions about it. You are to choose ONE best answer, (A), (B), (C) or (D), to each question. Answer all the questions following each passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in that passage and write tile letter of the answer you have chosen in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.

Any downtime such as the Easter weekend break takes me back to the summer of 2007 when I went on holiday and nearly died. It was the year the iPhone was born. The world was beginning to gorge on the gold rush of the Internet, social networks and mobile phones—the so called triple revolution. I was no exception. With a new business and a new baby, I was exhausted. Whenever possible, I was going online in a world which, a decade on, posts more than 6,000 tweets a second, where 60% of Britons are on Facebook and 14m of us are on Instagram.

There is a cost to all this connectedness and being always on. In 2007, arriving in Aldeburgh, Suffolk, famous for its lack of technology as much as its shingle shore, I went for a gentle jog along the beach to get in the holiday mood. Yet I felt myself grinding to a halt. I bad ignored a cold for months. Now I had the strange sensation that I was filling up with the shingle beneath me. Dragging myself back to the cottage, I muttered I think I have overdone it. My husband and our children looked on with scepticism wasn′t I just incapable of switching off Three days later I was in Ipswich Hospital with pneumonia and sepsis. I was a few hours from all my organs shutting down.

During my recovery I mulled on what had happened to me and whether I was uniquely bad at managing my life. I began to notice there was something unhealthy about this new era of infobesity and time poverty which has steadily worsened. I′ve been studying the effects of connectedness and its discontents and have been devising strategies to counteract the impact that the Age of Overload is having on our health. I′m now publishing my findings about what I call social health. In it I recommend ways in which we can get the best of the fully connected era and not suffer its worst excesses. I have started by looking at the history of connectedness itself. The human has fought to become king of the jungle in 200,000 short years. But in just an evolutionary nanosecond—150 years—we have jumped into an entirely new era. Everything from the telephone to central heating and. of course, the computer has transformed us for ever.

Yet we are seeing a society and a system that are not, for want of a better word, healthy. Evidence shows we are not happier, more productive, or always safer more than 10m working days a year in the UK are lost to stress, anxiety and depression and global productivity is stagnant and, if anything, falling. Now that we live cheek by jowl with a new species, technology, we must preserve the very essence of what makes us human and which led us to the top of the animal kingdom our instincts, our communication skills, our organisational abilities. They can be complemented but not comprehensively outsourced to technology or we pay a price inefficiency, inaccuracy, incompetence. And disaffection, low productivity, stress and economic weakness.

Yet we all hurtle on. The Road Runner Show cartoon tells a smart bird outruns the hapless Wile E Coyote who chases him, overrunning the cliff edge, legs spinning hopelessly in perpetuity.

It is useful to look at the postwar period because that is when the modern concept of health was first conceived with the creation of the World Health Organisation (WHO). Within its original definition is the goal of physical and mental health, not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. It refers to social well-being but with no detail. We need an updated definition fit for purpose in this century.

What exactly is social health It means managing all forms of connectedness, online and offline. It means getting our diet of information from people as much as from algorithms. It means developing habits around connectedness—much as we do around keeping fit and watching what we eat. It means managing your networks as systematically as you would your finances. And it means one thing above all managing your time and your diary like you do your body. Choose carefully what exactly goes in it. Social health is both a mindset and a behaviour; it is having trusted sources to find out what you need to know. Strong and diverse networks are crucial to social health and very different from the work the room association of old-style networking. Social health means having networks where you meet people who might challenge you, teach you, inspire you, not just help you get on and up. Social health means not believing everything you read or thinking that being on Facebook is better than being face to face.

Today we all know the difference between a carb and a protein, how to value our sleep intake, our alcohol consumption. We can copy what we have achieved in mental and physical health and adapt it to develop social health. My own antidote I have a weekly techno Shabbat when I go offline and reconnect only in real time, with real people, and real conversations. I favour small, intimate networks over large ones and I control my information intake just like my Easter eggs in moderation.

Directions: In this section you will read several passages. Each one is followed by several questions about it. You are to choose ONE best answer, (A), (B), (C) or (D), to each question. Answer all the questions following each passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in that passage and write tile letter of the answer you have chosen in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.

Ads are everywhere. They are on our trains, they are on our planes, they are wrapped around our automobiles. They are even on the homeless. Yes, really; homeless people have been used as media space by marketers thinking outside the box; charmingly, it′s called bumvertising. Still, despite the constant creep of commercialism there is one final frontier that has, as yet, remained blissfully ad-free the graveyard.

This isn′t to say that death doesn′t sell. On the contrary, posthumous fame is often the most lucrative. In Mark Twain′s play Is He Dead, an artist fakes his death to increase the value of his work. As one of the characters explains A painter has so much more talent when he′s dead. Indeed, the deader he is, the better he is. However, death normally doesn′t sell consumer brands. Nobody wants to see ads for burgers at a crematorium. Or be reminded that the unstoppable march of time means we are all going to die. Death is not aspirational and exploiting loss for money is inappropriate.

Well, perhaps it′s not quite clear to everyone that it is. Last week, McDonald′s got a lot of grief for a TV advert that seemingly exploited bereaved children to flog fish sandwiches. More than 150 people complained to the Advertising Standards Authority about the dead dad ad and it has now been pulled with the usual PR fauxpology. We respect our customers and their money very much and regret implying that a fried fish fillet could replace a father′s love etc etc.

McDonald′s execs can take some solace in the fact that they aren′t the only marketing minds to have inexplicably decided that invoking family tragedy would be a winning strategy. In 2015 Nationwide aired an ad featuring a drowned child during the Super Bowl. The camera cuts abruptly away to an ominously overflowing bath before reminding you that Nationwide can make safe happen. And, hey, if safe doesn′t happen then at least you′ll get some life insurance money. Now, to be clear, I don′t think that the McDonald′s or Nationwide ads were made by Machiavellian monsters, cynically mining pain for profit. They were just bad ads created by an industry so high on its own puffery that it truly believes fast food brands have important things to say about bereavement.

Nevertheless, there does appear to be a growing trend of brands engaging in griefsploitation. For instance, every time a celebrity dies, there follows a flurry of very bad tweets by companies trying to muscle their brand into the conversation. When Prince died last year, for example,

Cheerios tweeted Rest in peace on a purple background—with a cheerio replacing the dot above the i. Fans were not impressed and Cheerios quickly deleted the tweet. But Homebase didn′t even bother making it look as if they cared about anything other than promoting themselves.

Brands aren′t just leveraging celebrity deaths for product placement; national tragedies also make great content opportunities. Who could forget AT&T′s twin towers tweets In 2013, the telecommunications company posted a tweet on 11 September that showed someone holding a phone up over the Tribute in Light memorial in New York City with the caption Never Forget. And, after the Boston marathon bombing in 2013, the food website Epicurious tweeted In honor of Boston......may we suggest wholegrain cranberry scones! Shoehorning your brand into a social media conversation about a tragedy may be tasteless but it is a fairly rudimentary form of griefsploitation. Far more insidious is the way in which brands are now using our personal data to target us at the moments when we′re feeling most vulnerable.

Facebook has told advertisers it can identify when teenagers are feeling stressed, defeated, overwhelmed, anxious and useless, for example. It has also explicitly furnished advertisers with advice on how best to exploit—sorry, I mean help—people dealing with the grief of a breakup. Facebook′s research explains that heartbreak is the ideal marketing opportunity for those in the travel business in the month after a newly single Facebook user has announced their breakup, there is an increase of 25% more travel-related purchases. Apparently travel therapy has replaced retail therapy 55% of people surveyed by Facebook said that travelling after their breakup helped them move on, while only 8% of people said that shoes helped them move on. To be honest, some of these people probably just aren′t buying the right shoes. I mean, if you get boots that are made for walking, then that′s just what they′ll do. Anyway, if you break up with someone and find yourself suddenly bombarded with online ads for Virgin Holidays, this is probably why. Facebook is trying to help you heal. They care. They don′t want grief to consume you, they want you to consume your way out of grief. It′s really very sweet of them. At the very least, it′s better than a slap in the face with a wet filet of fish.

中级口译真题+参考答案

9月中级口译真题+参考答案(4) Questions 16-20 We are moving inexorably into the age of automation. Our aim is not to devise a mechanism which can perform a thousand different actions of any individual man but, on the contrary, one which could by a single action replace a thousand men. Industrial automation has moved along three lines. First there is the conveyor belt system of continuous production whereby separate operations are linked into a single sequence. The goods produced by this well-established method are untouched by the worker, and the machine replaces both unskilled and semiskilled. Secondly, there is automation with feedback control of the quality of the product: here mechanisms are built into the system which can compare the output with a norm, that is, the actual product with what it is supposed to be, and then correct any shortcomings. The entire cycle of operations dispenses with human control except in so far as monitors are concerned. One or two examples of this type of automation will illustrate its immense possibilities. There is a factory in the U.S.A. which makes 1,000 million electric light bulbs a year, and the factory employs three hundred people. If the preautomation techniques were to be employed, the labour force required would leap to 25,000. A motor manufacturing company with 45,000 spare parts regulates their entire supply entirely by computer. Computers can be entrusted with most of the supervision of industrial installations, such as chemical plants or oil refineries. Thirdly, there is computer automation, for banks, accounting departments, insurance companies and the like. Here the essential features are the recording, storing, sorting and retrieval of information. The principal merit of modern computing machines is the achievement of their

商务英语口语参考答案 I.From Chinese into English 1、我坚信您的来访将促进我们双方的了解和友谊。 I’m sure your visit will help promote the friendship and understanding between us. 2、这样大的订单，我们通常是在收到有关信用证后两个月内交货。 For such a large order, we usually make delivery within two months after receipt of the relative L/C. 3、你们的报盘比你们在其它国家的竞争对手所报的一些价格要高 Y our offers are higher than some of the quotations from your competitors in other countries. 4、不过，按照惯例，除非你方要求，否则我们是不投保这些险种的。 But as a rule, we don’t cover them unless you want to. 5、由于你方的价格偏高，目前我们很难推销你方的数码摄相机。 As your price is on the high side, it’s difficult for us to push the sale of your digital cameras nowadays. 6、如有劣质货物交达，本公司就永远不会再下定单了。 If the goods of inferior/bad/poor quality are delivered, we will not place our order with you again. 7、如一方未能履约，另一方有权终止合同。 If one side fails to honour the contract, the other side are entitled to cancel it. 8、由于你方不同意降低价格，我们只好到他处订货。 As you don’t agree to reduce your price, we will have to purchase the goods elsewhere. 9、要是那样的话，您能否接受远期信用证，允许我们延迟付款，比如，见票后60天付款？If that’s the case, could you accept a time L/C and allow us to delay payment, say, 60 days after sight? 10、如果是我们的错，我们会乐意地赔偿贵方的损失的。 If we were at fault, we should be very glad to compensate for your losses. 11、我是不是有足够的时间办理入境和通关手续呢？ Will I have enough time to go through the immigration and the customs? 12、假如你方给3% 的佣金，我们将向你试订一批货。 We shall book a trial order with you, provided you will give us a 3% commission. 13、请告诉我您需要的数量，这样我们才好安排生产和装运。 Please let us know the quantity you required so that we can arrange the production and shipment date. 14、顺便问一下，如果我想要货物在圣诞节前交的话，我什么时候必须开立信用证？ By the way, when must I open the L/C if I want the goods to be delivered before Christmas season? 15、鉴于我们过去几年的友好合作关系，我们各让一步吧，我把价格降低3%。 In view of our good cooperation over the past years, let’s meet each other half way; I’ll make a reduction by 3%. 16、交货的延误是由于你们信用证的延误。你们的信用证昨天才到达。 The delay in shipment is due to your delay in opening the letter of credit. Y our L/C arrived only yesterday. 17、若你方愿意降低价格，比方说3%，我们愿向你方试订此货。 Should you be prepared to reduce the price by, say, 3%, we would place a trial order with you. 18、我确定所有的货物在装运前都包装得很好。它们一定是在运输过程中遭到损坏。

2013年3月上海中级口译考试翻译真题及答案解析汇总

2013年3月上海中级口译考试翻译真题及答案解析汇总 【原文】 朝气蓬勃，充满活力，丰富多彩的上海是现代中国的缩影。虽然上海的文化遗迹不能与北京媲美，但是上海迷人的城市风貌，风格各异的万国建筑为这座城市注入了无限的魅力。今日之上海，已经成为享誉中外的国际大都市。 漫步在这座日新月异的现代大都市里，你会发现许多精彩的历史亮点，隐现在众多摩天大楼背后的是上海发展变化的轨迹。它们记述了上海自十九世纪末开埠以来，尤其是新中国成立以后，是如何迅猛发展的。 【参考译文】 Shanghai is a dynamic, diverse and stimulating city - the very epitome of modern China. Though Shanghai cannot rival Beijing in cultural heritage, its varied architectural styles and cosmopolitan feel give it a charm of its own. Today's Shanghai has become a world-famous international metropolis. A walk through this booming city reveals many glimpses of its colorful past. Hidden amongst the skyscrapers are remains of the original Shanghai. They keep on showing how Shanghai has been developing fast and enormously since its opening as a commercial port in the late 19th century, especially after the founding of new China. 【评析】 该篇翻译属于经典话题，类似于上海城市介绍，考生如果熟悉教材，注意积累相关句型词汇，特别是对“朝气蓬勃、充满活力dynamic, diverse and stimulating、缩影epitome、遗迹heritage、城市风貌cosmopolitan feel、万国建筑varied architectural styles”等常考的表达，应该可以顺利取得高分。 If you’ve ever been on a jury, you might have noticed that a funny thing happens the minute you get behind closed doors. Everybody starts talking about themselves. They say what they would have done if they had been the plaintiff or the defendant. Being on a jury reminds me why I can’t tolerate talk radio. We Americans seem to have lost the ability to talk about anything but our own experiences. We can’t seem to generalize without stereotyping or to consider evidence that goes against our own experience. I heard a doctor on a radio show talking about a study that found that exercise reduces the incidence of Alzheimer’s. And caller after caller couldn’t wait to make essentially the opposite point: “Well, my grandmother never exercised and she lived to 95.”We are in an age summed up by the saying: “I experience, therefore I’m right.”Historically, the hallmarks of an uneducated person were the lack of ability to think critically, to use deductive reasoning to distinguish the personal from the universal. Now that seems an apt description of many Americans. 【参考译文】 如果你曾经当过陪审员，你可能会注意到一件有趣的事情：一旦关上了门，所有人就开始谈论他们自己。他们会讨论，如果自己是原告或被告的话会做什么。担任陪审员的经历让我明白了我为什么无法忍受谈话性的广播节目。我们美国人似乎只剩下了谈论自己经历的能力。我们似乎无法抛开固有的成见进行总结，也无法客观地分析与自身经历相悖的证据。 我曾听过一位医生在之声节目上讲述一项研究，该研究发现锻炼能降低阿兹海默症（老

9月中级口译真题+参考答案(5)

9月中级口译真题+参考答案(5) SECTION 3: TRANSLATION TEST （1）（30 minutes） Directions: Translate the following passage into Chinese and write your version in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET. The culture of any society is usually thought to be of two kinds: material and nonmaterial. Material culture includes the man-made phenomena which have physical properties such as height, breadth, and weight. A boat, a machine, a house-all these objects are part of the material culture. The nonmaterial culture is that portion of the environment which surrounds man and which has an impact on his behavior but which lacks these material properties: values, beliefs, traditions, and all the other habits and ideas invented and acquired by man as a member of society. Contemporary sociological theory tends to assign primary importance to the nonmaterial culture in choosing problems for study. It assumes, for example, that boats, planes, automobiles, and so forth, are not nearly so important as the traditions we have developed which make their manufacture possible-indeed, which prescribe how we are to use them. The emphasis of contemporary sociology is to insist that the material culture would not exist had not the nonmaterial culture first been available to suggest the ideas which are embodied in the inventions of material culture. SECTION 4: TRANSLATION TEST （2）（30 minutes） Directions: Translate the following passage into English and write your version in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET. 进入耶鲁大学的校园，看到莘莘学子青春洋溢的脸庞，呼吸着书香浓郁的空气，我不由回想起40年前在北京清华大学度过的美好时光。当年老师们对我的教诲，同学们给我的启发，我至今仍受用不尽。
