中级口译笔试自学经历

中级口译笔试自学过程

今天查了中级口译笔试成绩，超过了150，反正是过了。总的来说，个人觉得其实蛮危险的。我的考场是深圳职业技术学院东校区，整个笔试听力是外放的，也就是说其实根本不用带耳机，当时拿准考证的时候有说明（拿准考证也是在深圳），我因为当时是在深圳的哥哥帮我拿的，他可能没注意，所以就没跟我说，结果我拎着两个耳机（一个备用），还带着一堆资料风尘仆仆地赶往深圳。。之前老是看别人的考试攻略，因为自己一点经验都没有，事实证明，还是有作用的。总体来说，我是7月20号开始备考，考试时间是9月13号，刚好7，8月份是暑假。

我复习用的教材有中级听力教程（第四版），中级翻译教程（第四版），新东方中高级口译词汇必备文本（网上可以找到文本和MP3），和中级口译全真模拟试题（说实话，我自己也不清楚是模拟试题好呢还是真题好，有同学说当然要真题才好，不过当时我已经买了这本模拟题，所以就没再买真题），每天基本就是做翻译教程和练听力教程，个人觉得非常有用，我在考试的时候，听力有些题目跟听力教程的还是一模一样，所以建议把翻译教程和听力教程都认认真真地做一遍，翻译教程做完了，基本上你也对怎么翻译有些了解和进步，像今年我觉得翻译还是比较简单易懂的，相对于平时练习。阅读我没怎么练习，就是临近考试前做那个全真模拟试题才有练习到阅读，如果平时基础不错的话，这部分倒是不用担心，因为跟四六级的差不多。对于词汇，其实我没背多少，我是觉得对于笔试来说倒还好，对词汇的要求没那

么高，当然，能够每天背的话，笔试一旦过了，口试用处就非常大了，像我现在就开始挠心词汇量的了。

一定要注意的就是，考试时，卷子发下来过大概十分钟就要听听力，抓紧利用这点时间将所有的听力题扫一遍，像第一部分的听写题，平时练的时候，注意动词的形式，名词是否单复数，还有就是词组中的介词不要忘记了，我在练习就经常会出现这种问题。听完听力，最好将两段翻译做完，阅读留到最后，因为最后若是没时间也可以蒙，自己深有体会啊，我不知道考试是要涂卡的（深圳职业技术学院考场要涂卡，其他考场就不知道了），虽然我有带2B铅笔，就是因为要涂卡，加上将听力中的听译答案移到答题卡，真的花了我太多的时间，平时练习没有将这些时间计算进去，导致最后阅读只剩一点点时间做，所以强烈个人建议平时练习，尽量在两个小时的时间内将题目做完，做题速度快的同学就可以忽略这一点哈。

想起去考试的情景也是蛮搞笑的，我是十一号上深圳的，虽然我带了资料过去，其实都没用到，因为去我哥哥那边，他们都带我去逛街，玩，然后没出门的时候就在家里看看电视，等到十三号的时候才去考场那里看了一下下，然后直接上考场考试，说实话，十一号到十三号那几天过得有些心虚，虽然蛮开心的。

总而言之，我的中级口译笔试是过了，虽然是跟运气有些挂钩，但我也知道，暑假在学校备考也是有占了其中的一部分原因的，同时也希望有去考试的同学能够跟我一样，一次就过笔试，虽然我知道重要的在口试，一起努力吧！！！

英语自学经验分享终极篇

好吧，这应该是最后一篇总结自己自学英语的经历了。再往后写也没有什么新意了，只是一个重复的机械化动作了。学英语确实是有很多的瓶颈，当然这只是针对我这个英语菜鸟而言。就目前来看，我很庆幸自己已经把该走的路都走出来了。两年的时间说多不多，说少也不少。自问自己再英语自学上面所花的心思已经做到了自己能做的一切。而经验分享的文章这应该也是最后一篇了，自己的英语还有很大的上升空间，但是对于自学来说我应该不需要再去做一些特别的尝试了，坚持已是王道。越努力，越幸运！ 很感谢大家一直以来的关注，作为一个英语自学者我深知自学的难度。我虽说做培训，但更多的还是给别人提供一种思维，一种经验，一种自创的英语环境。让别人少走弯路短期提高口语，围绕英语实战更是我的核心。到目前为止我自学两年了，做培训一年了。虽然坚持的人少，但是还是有一位朋友一直到现在坚持了五个月，还有其他四个朋友坚持了三个月，现在还在一如既往的坚持着。而他们也经常给我反馈对比零基础的当时，现在的进步还是比较满意，而且也很明显。最重要的一点，他们说自始自终都信我，虽开心但还是有了几分压力。毕竟这社会，信任还是少有的。自己能够的就是提供该有的帮助，外面培训机构提供什么我既然也不会少。别人有老外，我给你们每个人都找好，只要你有能力去沟通。但是无论如何，感谢大家的信任与支持。 很久以前就想做一个总结，不管是培训还是自学。其实没有什么好炫耀的，当然也没有什么好丢脸的，就算自己英语一般般。很多人学英语有目标，知道学了有什么用。我学英语就是觉得有用，但是怎么有用我自己也不知道。所以自己给自己的时间没有限制，努力便好。而对于很多人都喜欢给自己一个短期学习的时间，比如很多人觉得如果要他花两年时间把英语提上来他都觉得浪费时间，更不要说一年。不要总是以为花了钱自己去培训了，培训机构承诺的时间到了你就会说一口流利的英语，说来说去该努力的还是你自己。这跟花钱买文凭不一样，你不努力不下功夫，如果花钱能买到，估计满大街都有。所以你越是想短期提高，你就更得有自己的计划与方案，凭空等着培训给你解决问题永远都是行不通的。再者就是所有的培训机构不管再系统教学，再多老外资源，问题是你有没有认真去消化，这些资源在你身上有多少。培训一节课，自己说英语的计划就十几分钟，或者一个班十个人，自己压根不会说，或者会说没机会，这些其实你都应该去考虑清楚。自己身边英语培训过的人应该不少，那为什么不是所有的人培训了都说的一口流利的英文，原因什么都有。所以自学也好，培训也罢。不能一个月两个月没什么太大的效果立马就放弃了，这样浪费时间与精力的是自己。无论如何，希望各位在学习英语的道路上，一帆风顺。 记得之前文章说到了我那个时候是会日常交流而且很熟练的那种。但是现在，应付一份工作主持一个会议应该不是什么问题了，去面试说自己会英语也更有底气。虽谈不上什么特别地道，什么优势，但是起码现在英语不再是什么劣势，我觉得这就够了。但是老实讲，人嘛，你需要去自己看清自己的状态跟水平，对于满足于现状得人基本很难再去提高。一般到了一定的阶段了很多人都容易心高气傲，目空一切。当然想再提高也还是得自己琢磨。我的内心一直都是平静的，有过情绪，但是没有想放弃的念头。既然敢开始，那么你就应该得到你在开始设想的那个结果，虽不是一模一样，但是八九不离十还是应该的。谁会想一无所有，你说呢？再过几天我就自学英语满两年了，在这里把自己这一路走过来遇到的一些问题，跟自己应对的一些方法简单的介绍了一下，希望给正在学习英语的你能有一些实质性的帮助。同时希望英语能力比我好的不要见怪，不喜勿喷。 下面我围绕英语口语实战，从单词听说读写四大方面一一介绍一些常见的问题以及应对方法：

【DF】2011年3月上海中级口译真题及答案

沪江英语绿宝书之 2011年3月上海中级口译考试 听力原文及解析 SECTION 1: LISTENING TEST (45 minutes) Part A: Spot Dictation Directions:In this part of the test, you will hear a passage and read the same passage with blanks in it. Fill in each of the blanks with the word or words you have heard on the tape. Write your answer in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET. Remember you will hear the passage ONLY ONCE. My topic for today?s lecture is communication, culture and work. When most people use the word culture, they think of people from different national backgrounds. National cultures certainly do exist and they play an important role in shaping the way people communicate, but there are other dimensions of culture too. Within a nation, regional differences can exert a powerful influence on communication. New Yorkers and Alaskans may find one another?s styles of behaving so different that they might as well be from different countries. Race and ethnicity can also shape behavior. So can age. The customs, values and attitudes of a twenty-year-old girl may vary radically from those of her parents who were raised in the 1960s or her grandparents who lived through the Great Depression and World War Ⅱ. Still, other differences can create distinctive cultures. Gender, sexual orientation, physical disabilities, religion and socio-economic background are just a few. All of these factors lead to a definition of culture as a set of values, beliefs, norms, customs, rules and codes that lead people to define themselves as a distinct group, giving them a sense of commonality. It?s important to realize that culture is learned, not innate.A Korean-born infant adopted soon after her birth by American parents and raised in the United States will think and act differently than his or her cousins who grew up in Seoul. An African American who grew up in the inner city will view the world differently than he or she would if raised in the suburbs or in a country like France where African heritage has different significance than it does in the United States. The norms and values we learn as part of our cultural conditioning shape the way we view the world and the way we interact with one another. In short, culture has such an overwhelming influence on communication that famous anthropologist Edward Hall once remarked, …culture is communication and communication is culture.?

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

英语学习方法-自考英语经验：计划大于一切

英语学习方法 自考英语经验：计划大于一切 我的英语自考自学方法归纳起来有四点： 一是尽早计划，二是见缝插针，三是及时复习，四是一鼓作气。 作为一名已经参加工作的自学考生，这种学习方法也是我在不断地总结，不断地调整的基础上形成的，不会适合每个人，仅此作为一点建议。 在学习过程中，我发现有的课程由于自己没有安排好具体的计划，胸无成竹，或是由于生活琐事或是工作任务的原因，有时会虎头蛇尾，开始时对自己说要如何如何努力，要如何有效率的读书，最后却是草草收场。静下心来，细细想想才发现自学英语是一个需要韧性和耐力远远大于激情和速度改正了浮躁的毛病，我开始在每次考试结束后，就开始准备制订下一次考试的计划. 在了解大致的章节篇数之后，我会订出要在何时结束课程学习，何时开始复习，何时开始做题。这是一个总打算。除此之外，我还要制订出更详细更具体的计划，具体到一个章节需要多长时间，一天要看多少内容，各门课程在一个月之内如何安排，在一星期之内、一天之内如何安排，总之，尽量详细，尽量具体，把学习进度可行化，

当然，一定要留有空隙，给一些自己估计不到的事留出时间，最后，要按照计划切实执行，认真对待，这样既能做到心中有数，步步为营，也不致于耽误工作或被一些琐事扰乱了全局。 为了使工作学习互不影响，也为了不让计划之外的事情影响学习，我总是见缝插针，抓住一切有限时间学习。有时我会拿不到学习时间为借口偷懒，然而正想集中精神读书时却因为恰恰此时有事而不得不放下书本。所以尽可能提早完成任务而不是不得不拖后，不要等计划的时间，要在事情没到之前就已经完成了计划。还有就是要做学习卡片以便随身携带，能够充分利用零碎时间。这是许多人都建议采纳的一种学习方法，我试着把前一天所记的内容都记在卡片上第二天在坐车、等车时看看能及时强化记忆。 做学习卡片是一种及时复习的好方法，除此外，每天晚上最好要做一个一天学习的总结，明确自己什么已经记住了，什么还需要第二轮复习，等等。如果没有时间，也要在脑子里把一天所学的知识进行回忆，使每道题从头到尾都有一个很连贯的思路，没有记住的一定要记下来，以便再次巩固。而以前的总结也要随时翻看，这样做看似比较费时，其实为以后的总复习打下了一个很好的基础。 订计划容易，做起来难。一旦决定照此下去，一定要坚持不懈，一鼓作气，而一旦形成习惯，感觉不会太艰难了。每天早晨6点起床看书是我坚持了10多天而得的习惯，刚刚习惯成自然，可偏偏赶上了过年，几天的吃住在外使得我不得不重新再来。一鼓作气，再而衰，三而竭。让我们共勉。

中级口译笔试历年真题听力文字稿最完整版(97-08)

历年上海中级口译听力部分录音文稿（97.3 － 08.9） 97．3 SECTION 1：LISTENING TEST Part A: Spot Dictation The development of the Space Shuttle has dramatically reduced the cost of sending loads into space. The Shuttle takes off from Earth like a rocket, and lands again like a huge aircraft. It can transport not only its own crew, but also passengers, and has a huge cargo-hold which is capable of carrying large satellites or a space laboratory. Before the Space Shuttle was created, it was necessary to plan trips into space several years in advance. However, for the rest of the century it should be possible to make space flights every week or so. Any scientist or engineer needing to travel into orbit will simply take the next Shuttle flight, stay as long as necessary, and then return at his or her convenience. It is difficult to imagine the immense opportunities created by the Shuttle. One of the great advantages of having a reusable space vehicle is that it can take one load after another into orbit. Very large space stations could not be launched in their complete form directly from Earth, but they could be built piece by piece in space. The Space Shuttle is likely to be used as a general ―workhorse‖ for the rest of this century, and the building of such stations in orbit should become commonplace. Once these huge orbiting space stations are completed, they are likely to become the platforms from which hundreds of robot space ships could be launched cheaply and easily to explore the solar system and to start mining operations on the Moon. The technology needed for this is already developed and available. And because of commercial and military pressures to develop space technology, it is likely that governments will be increasingly willing to start extensive programs of space engineering, exploration and research. Part B: Listening Comprehension Ⅰ. Statements Question No. 1. Jane remained in London for the summer. Question No. 2. Daniel requested that he be transferred to Tokyo to start a new branch. Question No. 3. According to our correspondent, the rain has flooded several areas of South India. Question No. 4. Jason ran across his former college teacher during a business trip to Chicago.

Any remaining passengers must go immediately to gate 2 where the flight is now closing. Olympic Airways flight number OA 260 closing now at gate 2.

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

学习英语的经验总结

学习英语的经验总结 想把英语学精深，就要找对方法和技巧，学英语，一开始慢一点不要紧，贵在基础牢固。以下是找 ___为大家搜集提供到的学习英语的经验总结，希望对您有所帮助。欢迎阅读参考学习！ 中国人学英语(课程)，最常用的方法是背单词，甚至有人以能背出一本词典为荣，但是词典上的解释是死的，语言的运用却是活的，机械的理解会造成很大的误解。词典不是最重要的，关键在于语境。可以说，单词没有多少实际运用的价值，机械记忆的单词量再大，也不会真正提高你的外语(课程)水平。要养成背诵句子的好习惯，因为句子中既包含了发音规则，又有语法内容，还能表明某个词在具体语言环境中的特定含义。 不要学“古董英语”。任何语言都是活的，每天都会发展，学习陈旧的语言毫无新鲜感，而且基本无处可用。不鲜活、不入时、不风趣幽默的语言不是我们要学的语言，多读外文报纸、多看原版影视作找总结会有助于补充新词汇。 很多人以为，把单词拆成一个个字母背熟就可以正确地拼写出来，其实，科学的方法是把读音、拼写和用法融为一体，同步进行，眼口手脑并用，并把它应用到句子里面去理解。

练习听力时，许多人抱怨听不懂，因而丧失了听的乐趣，往往半途而废。其实，即使听不懂也是一种学习，只不过你自己觉察不到而已。虽然暂时听不懂，但你的耳膜已经开始尝试着适应一种新的语言发音，你的大脑在调整频率，准备接受一种新的信息代码，这本身就是一次飞跃。所以切记：听不懂时，你也在进步。 练习听力，要充分利用心理学上的无意注意，只要一有时间，就要打开录音机播放外语磁带，使自己处于外语的语言环境中，也许你没听清楚说些什么，这不要紧，你可以随便做其他事情，不用去有意听，只要你的周围有外语环境的发音，你的听力就会提高。 学英语很重要的一点是用来和他人交流，但开口难也是中国人学英语的一大特点。问题出在以下几点： 一是有些人把是否看懂当成学习的标准。拿到一本口语教材，翻开几页一看，都看懂了，就认为太简单了，对自己不合适。其实，练习口语的教材，内容肯定不会难，否则没法操练。看懂不等于会说，把这些你已经学会的东西流利地表达出来，才是口语教材最主要的目标。 二是千万不要用汉字来记英语发音。学习一门外语如果发音不过关，始终不会真正掌握一门外语，而且最大的害处是不利于培养对外

1上海市英语中级口译证书第二阶段考试试题集锦 (201009) 口语题 Directions: Talk on the following topic for at least 3 minutes. Be sure to make your points clear and supporting details adequate. You should also be ready to answer any questions raised by the examiners during your talk. You need to have your name and registration number recorded. Start your talk with “My name is…”，”My registration number is…” Topic: Can shopping vouchers increase consumption? Questions for Reference: 1.To stimulate consumption, which is more effective, tax reduction or shopping vouchers? 2.What are the major purposes of issuing shopping vouchers? 3.In what way can the shopping vouchers best be distributes? Shall every citizen be given the same amount of shopping vouchers or should the vouchers be limited to the lower-income people only? 口译题 Part A Directions:In this part of the test, you will hear 2 passages in English. After you heard each paragraph, interpret it into Chinese. Start interpreting at the signal…and stop it at the signal…You may take notes while you are listening. Remember you will hear the passages ONLY ONCE. Now let’s begin Part A with the first passage. Passage 1 As for us Americans, you may think that we give too much importance to individualism and personal gains, so much so that it might sacrifice collective benefits, and even bring harm to the harmony of the society.// Yes, but you don’t have to be worried. American work ethic is more individual-oriented. We often value the results and accomplishments of work more than its process.// If I am not mistaken, the traditional Chinese work ethic is based on Confucianism, which stresses the benefit of communal harmony rather than individual freedom.// It’s really very hard to say which is better because if the cultural differences. With the economic globalization, cultural exchanges have become more and more extensive and Americans and Chinese will know and understand each other better. 至于我们美国人，你们会感到我们太看重个人主义，太看重个人利益，这样可能会牺牲集体的利益，甚至会损害社会的和谐。// 是的，但你们不必担忧。我们美国人的工作理念更强调个人主义。我们一般重视的是结果和成就，而不是过程。// 如果我没理解错的话，中国传统的够工作理念是以儒家学说为基础的，这种思想强调整体和谐高于个体自由。// 由于文化差异的存在，真的很难说哪种理念更好。随着经济全球化，文化交流也随之变得越来越广泛，美国人民和中国人民将会更加互相了解和理解。

Fill in each of the blanks with the words you have heard on the tape. Write your answer in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET. Remember you will hear the passage ONLY ONCE. Every human being is fallible; we make mistakes.
