Exercise Unit 3

Translate the following passage into Chinese.

Before college, the only people I had ever known who were interested in art or music or literature, the only ones who read books, the only ones who ever seemed to enjoy a sense of ease and grace were the mother and daughters. Like the menfolk, they fretted about money, they scrimped and made-do. But when the pay stopped coming in, they were not the ones who had failed. Nor did they have to go to war, and that seemed to me a blessed fact. By comparison with the narrow, ironclad days of fathers, there was an expansiveness, I thought, in the days of mothers. They went to see neighbours, to shop in town, to run errands at school, at the library, at church. (Scott Russell Sanders, Women and Men)

Fret: become unhappy, bad-tempered or anxious about something; worry

Scrimp: manage to spend little money

Ironclad: rigid, fixed,刻板的,固定不变的

Errands:short journey to take a message, get or deliver goods

Exercise Unit 4

Translate the following passages into Chinese

To a few of us here today, this is a solemn and most momentous occasion. And yet in the

history of our nation it is a commonplace occurrence. The orderly transfer of authority as called for in the Constitution routinely takes place as it has for almost two centuries, and few of us stop to think how unique we really are. In the eyes of many in the world, this every-four-year ceremony we accept as normal is nothing less than a miracle.

Momentous: very important, serious

Mr. President, I want our fellow citizens to know how much you did to carry on this tradition. By your gracious cooperation in the transition process, you have shown a watching world that we are a united people pledged to maintaining a political system which guarantees individual liberty to a greater degree than any other. And I thank you and your people for all your help in maintaining the continuity which is the bulwark of our Republic.

Bulwark: person or thing that support

The business of our nation goes forward. These United States are confronted with an economic affection of greater proportions. We suffer from the longest and one of the worst sustained inflations in our national history. It distorts our economic decisions, penalizes thrift and crushes the struggling young and the fixed-income elderly alike. It threatens to shatter the lives of millions of our people.

Affection: disease

Idle industries have cast workers into unemployment, human misery and personal indignity. Those who do work are denied a fair return for their labor by a tax system which penalizes successful achievement and keeps us from maintaining full productivity.

But great as our tax burden is, it has not kept pace with public spending. For decades we have piled deficit upon deficit, mortgaging our future and our children’s future for the temporary convenience of the present. To continue this long trend is to guarantee tremendous social, cultural, political and economic upheaval.

Exercise Unit 16

Marriage and Love

THE popular notion about marriage and love is that they are synonymous, that they spring from the same motives, and cover the same human needs. Like most popular notions this also rests not on actual facts, but on superstition.

Marriage and love have nothing in common; they are as far apart as the poles; and are, in fact, antagonistic to each other. No doubt some marriages have been the result of love. Not, however, because love could assert itself only in marriage; much rather is it because few people can completely outgrow a convention. There are today large numbers of men and women to whom marriage is naught but a farce, but who submit to it for the sake of public opinion. At any rate, while it is true that some marriages are based on love, and while it is equally true that in some cases love continues in married life, I maintain that it does so regardless of marriage, and not because of it.

Exercise Unit 17

On the other hand, it is utterly false that love results from marriage. On rare occasions one does hear of a miraculous case of a married couple falling in love after marriage, but on close examination it will be found that it is a mere adjustment to the inevitable. Certainly the growing-used to each other is far away from the spontaneity, the intensity, and beauty of love, without which the intimacy of marriage must prove degrading to both the woman and the man.

Marriage is primarily an economic arrangement, an insurance pact. It differs from the ordinary life insurance agreement only in that it is more binding, more exacting. Its returns are insignificantly small compared with the investments. In taking out an insurance policy one pays for it in dollars and cents, always at liberty to discontinue payments. If, how ever, woman's premium is a husband, she pays for it with her name, her privacy, her self-respect, her very life, "until death doth part." Moreover, the marriage insurance condemns her to life-long dependency, to parasitism, to complete uselessness, individual as well as social.(Man, too, pays his toll, but as his sphere is wider, marriage does not limit him as much as woman. He feels his chains more in an economic sense.)

Thus Dante's motto over Inferno applies with equal force to marriage: "Ye who enter here leave all hope behind."

Exercise Unit 18

1. Scientists are already experimenting with propulsion systems that may travel much faster than today’s conventional chemical rockets. Franklin Chang’s plasma rocket may be the answer. “In a plasma rocket you’re continually accelerating,” he explains.

2. A trip to Mars could be cut to 90 days, claims Chang. His rocket harnesses a nuclear process to produce a hot gas plasma. The plasma is magnetically held in a rocket the shape of a bottle and then expelled at very high velocity to provide propulsion. The plasma has to be heated to millions of degrees. Chang believes his system will be too good just to reach Mars. “I think it will qu ickly be developed for interplanetary travel within our Solar System”. The plasma rocket is now under development at NASA’s Houston laboratories.

3. Another new method of propulsion is already flying through our Solar System. Pushed only by an electronically driven “ion engine”, Deep Space One is already over 100 million miles from Earth. It words by ionizing xenon gas and expelling it with the aid of electric fields, so providing a gentle but constant thrust. The ion engine provides a force about the same as a single sheet of paper exerts on your hand---far too weak to lift a spacecraft from the surface of a planet--- but the continuous acceleration has already pushed Deep Space One to the speed ten times higher than any of the manned rockets we use today.

新视野大学第三版book1英语课后翻译答案 Unit1 苏格拉底是古希腊哲学家,被誉为现代西方哲学的奠基人。他是一个谜一般的人物,人们主要通过后来的一些古典作家的叙述,尤其是他最著名的学生柏拉图的作品去了解他。苏格拉底以他对伦理学的贡献而闻名。他的教学法亦称为苏格拉底法,即通过提问和回答来激发批判性思维以及阐述观点。该方法在各种讨论中仍被普遍使用。他还在认识论和逻辑领域作出了重大而深远的贡献。他的思想和方法所带来的影响一直是后来的西方哲学的坚实基础。苏格拉底是古代哲学史上最丰富多彩的人物。他在他那个时代已威名远扬。虽然他未曾建立什么哲学体系,未曾设立什么学派,也未曾创立什么宗派,但他的名字很快就变得家喻户晓了。 Confucius was a great thinker and educator in Chinese history. He was the founder of Confucianism and was respectfully referred to as an ancient “sage”. His words and life story were recorded in The Analects. An enduring classic of ancient Chinese culture, The Analectshas had a great influence on the thinkers, writers, and statesmen that came after Confucius. Without studying this book, one could hardly truly understand the thousands-of-years’traditional Chinese culture.

Unit2 圣诞节是一个被广泛庆祝的文化节日,全世界有许许多多的人在12月25日庆祝这一节日。它是为了纪念耶稣基督的诞辰。该节日最早可追溯到公元336年。渐渐地,这一节日演变为一个既是宗教又是非宗教的节日,越来越多的非基督徒也庆祝圣诞节。如今,圣诞节在全球被作为一个重大的节日和公共假日来庆祝。不同国家的圣诞节风俗也各不相同。现代流行的圣诞接风俗包括交换圣诞贺卡和圣诞礼物、唱圣诞歌曲、参加教堂活动、摆放各种圣诞装饰品和圣诞树、举行家庭聚会以及准备一顿特别的大餐。对小孩子们来说,这个节日充满了幻想和惊喜。据传说,圣诞老人会在圣诞夜从烟囱进入每户人家,给乖巧听话的孩子带来礼物。由于圣诞节送礼物以及许多其他方面推动了基督徒和非基督徒的经济活动,圣诞节也因此成为商家的一个重大活动和主要销售季。 According to the Chinese lunar calendar, August 15 of every year is a traditional Chinese festival-the Mid-Autumn Festival.

大学英语六级翻译练习(1) 1._______________ (通过体育锻炼),we can always stay healthy. 2.According to the scientific research , _____________ (听音乐能使我们放松).Is this really true? 3.______________ (我们绝对不能)ignore the value of knowledge. 4.As is known to all, ______________ (假冒伪劣商品)harm the interests of consumers. 5.Faced with failure, some people can stand up to it, _____________ (从失败中汲取教训)and try hard to fulfill what they are determined to do. 答案及解析 1. By taking exercises 解析:通过锻炼,我们可以保持健康。其实这题答案不止一个。“锻炼”可以用名词也可以用动词短语。“通过”可以用by表示方式,through表示途径。 By taking exercises /Through exercises。往往by用于“by + doing”,而through后接名词哦。 2. listening to music enables us to feel relaxed 解析:“听音乐”在句中作主语,“听”应当处理成动名词形式。“能使我们放松”很多同学会采用 can make us feel relaxed的结构。其实,enable就有“能够使某人……”的含义,注意enable sb. to do 的表达。 3. On no account can we 解析:本题是强调语气,强调“决不能”,所以联想到on no account ,by no means, at no time, in no case等。不管用哪一个,都要注意它们是含有否定的意味的,因此在置于句首时应使用倒装语序。 4. fake and inferior commodities 解析:“假冒伪劣商品”包含两层含义:一是假货,二是次品,在翻译成英文的时候应该注意两层含义的正确译法。“假冒”不能用false而应选择fake,“次品”可以说inferior表示质量差,也可以用commodity of low quality。 5. draw useful lessons from it 解析:句意为:面对失败,有的人能够顽强抵抗,从中吸取教训,努力实现他们的目标。本句由三个并列的谓语成分构成,谓语动词分别是stand up to“汲取”和try。“汲取教训”正确表达为draw a lesson from。然而我们又能从全句判断,从失败中吸取教训是为了将来能够更好地实现目标,因此加上修饰语useful,使内容更明确。 大学英语六级翻译练习(2) 1.Everyone has his inherent ability ,________________ (只是很容易被习惯所掩盖).

大学英语四级翻译练习题:交谈.doc

2019年6月大学英语四级翻译练习题:交谈英语四级翻译练习题:交谈 在中国人们见面时喜欢问:你去哪儿?或你吃了吗?大多数时候人们并非真正想知道你要去哪里或吃饭了没有。实际上那只是一种打招呼的方式。与西方的风俗相似,当你与个陌生人开始交谈时,诸如天气、食物或爱好之类的话题可能是打破坚冰的不错选择。询问私人问题时应当慎重,但是聊些关于家乡、工作方面的话題则通常可以使谈话顺利进行。 参考译文 In China, people like to ask Where are you heading for? or Have you eaten yet? when they meet each other. For most of the time, they do not really want to know where you are going to or whether you have eaten or not. Actually, that is just a way to greet each other. Similar to western customs, when you start talking with a stranger, topics such as weather, food or hobby may be good choices to break the ice. You should be cautious when you ask private questions. But a chat about one’s hometown or job can usually go on smoothly. 表达难点 1.在第2句中,你要去哪里或吃饭了没有作并非真正想知道的宾语,可将其处理成一个宾语从句,用陈述句语序表达,译作where you are going to or whether you have eaten or not. 2.在第3句中,实际上可译为actually或in fact。定语打招呼
