大本钟

大本钟是伦敦最有名的地标之一,也是世界上最大的四钟面时钟之一。1856年4月10日铸造了一口重16吨的报时钟,这个名字最初是给予那口钟的。这口钟从未正式命名,但是钟上的铭文记载,下订单的是工程局局长本杰明·霍尔爵士/ 是工程局局长本杰明·霍尔爵士下的订单;另一种猜测是,这口钟可能是根据当时走红的重量级拳击手本杰明·考恩特命名的。还有一种传说是,这口钟本来打算命名为“维多利亚”,向维多利亚女王表示敬意,但是举行仪式时的演说没完没了,有个爱开玩笑的人喊道:“啊,就管它叫大本,别罗嗦了!”这个名字就粘上了/ 甩不掉了。

当时钟楼尚未完工/ 竣工,这口钟安放在新王宫院内,但钟在钟槌的敲击下裂开了,其金属重铸为如今使用的重15.17吨的钟/ 其金属重铸为另一口钟,重15.17吨,如今仍在使用。新钟于1859同四口报刻钟一道安放于钟楼之内。

1834年10月16日晚,原来的威斯特敏斯特宫毁于火灾,钟楼是作为查尔斯·巴利设计的新王宫的一部分而建造的。按维多利亚时代的哥特式风格设计,高316英尺(合96米)。由于自建成以来就存在的地面状况,钟楼稍向西北倾斜,大约8.66英寸(合220毫米) 。

钟面嵌在一个直径21英尺(合7米)的铁制框架中,框架支撑着576块乳白玻璃,很像一个彩色玻璃窗。有些玻璃可以卸下来/ 拆下来检查指针。分针长14英尺(合4.25米),数字高2英尺(合0.6米)。议会开会期间,钟面上方亮起灯光。到了晚上,四个钟面都照亮了,这座钟就成了一道异常壮观的景象。

英国国民要登上钟楼,可拨打/ 呼叫020·7219·3000进行预约。国外游客要求游览,可在预定参观之前至少3个月发函至:英国伦敦SW1A 2JN,坎南路1号, 议会公共工程设施局钟楼游览处。

Zhangjiajie Forest Park

Zhangjiajie Forest Park is located / is situated / finds itself within the boundaries of Zhangjiajie City in northwestern Hunan /, northwestern Hunan. Founded in 1982, this forest park / This forest park, founded in 1982, was included by the United Nations in The World Natural Heritage Directory in Dec., 1992, and listed as a world geopark in Feb., 2004.

It is China’s first national forest park, and boasts a peculiar sandstone needle karst landform. / (As) China’s first national forest park, it boasts a peculiar sandstone needle karst landform / It is China’s first national forest park, boasting / with a peculiar sandstone needle karst landform. There are here / It has numerous fantastic peaks and rocks, all shrouded in clouds and mist whether it is clear or rainy, making the place look like a dreamland. // The place looks like a dreamland as there are here / as it has / with numerous fantastic peaks and rocks, all shrouded in clouds and mist whether it is clear or rainy.

With lofty peaks and dense primeval forests, it has species of the world’s five families of plants, more than twice as many as / double / doubling those in Europe as a whole, and many of which are rare survivors of ancient species. It is also a favorable natural habitat for various kinds of rare birds and animals, among which the locally called “water-carrying bi rd”, in particular, is a fowl very rare indeed in the world.

Huangshizhai is the top attraction of Zhangjiajie where the best sights in the place are concentrated // with / boasting / embracing the best sights in the place. There is the local saying: “From coming to Huangshizhai you refrain, and your trip to Zhangjia jie is in vain.” The re the tourist can enjoy to his heart’s content / can feast his eyes on a marvelous fairyland of fantastic peaks and rocks, streams and forests, rare birds and animals, and sunrises above clouds..

印巴研制核武器揭秘(节选)

印度的核试验反过来又为巴基斯坦核武器鼓吹者提供了进行核试验的完美借口。在巴基斯坦,宗教极端分子也鼓吹进行核试验。与此同时,军方谋求研制核武器,以对抗/ 抗衡(规模)大得多的印度武装力量/ 武装部队。

印度进行核试验之后,美中两国的外交努力部分地抵消了这种呼声。此外,一些分析家和活动家还列举了经济制裁可能产生的不良影响,因为/ 说任何核试验后经济制裁必定随之而来。他们建议,巴基斯坦不要步印度后尘/ 效法印度——让印度独自面对国际社会的愤怒,但无济于事。印度进行核试验三周后,巴基斯坦也进行了自己的核试验。

虽然双方都夸大其词,但两国的核试验引起的地震信号微弱,(这就)让人怀疑它们宣布的核爆炸当量。印度武器研究部门公布的支持其声言的数据严重不足/ 印度武器研究部门公布了一些数据支持其声言,但(数据)严重不足,例如,一张据说表明核辐射副产品当量的曲线图坐标轴上没有单位。独立科学家一直无法核实两国的确引爆了各自宣称的那么多装置。

不管具体情况如何,两国核试验大大改变了南亚的军事局势。这些试验刺激两国研制更先进的武器、导弹、潜艇、反弹道导弹系统和指挥控制系统。1999年8月,《印度核原则草案》要求部署“由飞机、地面移动导弹和海上发射/ 海基导弹”构成的三合一力量来投放核武器。这样的系统将耗资约80亿美元。今年1月,印度政府宣布将部署新的远程导弹。一个月后,巴基斯坦海军副参谋长也宣布,巴基斯坦正考虑至少在一艘潜艇上部署导弹核导弹/ 至少为一艘潜艇装备核导弹。

第10课

China Declares National Mourning; Rescues (Still) Continue (II) But rescuers still haven’t given up hope. Over the weekend, soldiers / troops opened a road into this town in the mountains of central Sichuan, allowing / permitting essential supplies and equipment to start flowing / coming in to rescuers and survivors and providing an escape route for those fleeing the destruction.

That puts Yingxiu, (located) about 60 miles (to the) west of Chengdu, at / That made Yingxiu, about 60 miles (to the) west of Chengdu, the center of one of / what is one of the largest disaster-relief operations in Chinese history. Tens of thousands of soldiers / troops, paramilitary police, rescuers, civilian officials and volunteers have joined / thrown themselves into / plunged into the effort.

Firefighters / Firemen from Qingdao in eastern China began to tunnel into / dig a tunnel into the wreckage / ruins of a collapsed office building in the early hours of the morning Sunday, trying to extricate / save / rescue as many as / up to four people believed to be alive after they had been trapped for nearly a week.

At least one of the people, a 44-year-old woman whose legs were pinned (down), was still able to talk to the rescuers and received food and water, said / according to a firefighter involved in / taking part in / participating in / who had joined in the rescue..

But when an aftershock measuring magnitude 6.1 / a magnitude-6.1 aftershock hit / struck and rain turned into a downpour, making the building even more unstable, the firemen had to / were forced to / were compelled to suspend the search. They resumed work / the rescue at dawn / after daybreak.

The woman, (named / called / by the name of) Yu Jinhua, was (successfully) rescued at 8:10 p.m. Sunday, Xinhua reported. She had been buried for (as long as) 150 hours. Rescuers spent 56 hours trying to get her out / rescue her / extricate her, the report said.

第12课

Greening Our Future (II)

Ancient Chinese philosophers repeatedly / time and again / over and over again emphasized / stressed man’s integration with nature as a supreme virtue / that man’s integration with nature was a supreme virtue. Some advocated the golden mean / the doctrine of the (golden) mean / the middle road, and others (advocated) peacefulness with the world. These sparks of wisdom, unfortunately, / It is unfortunate that these sparks of wisdom have been obscured by history for two thousand years. Now it is time to convert / transform / change / turn these ideas into action // put these ideas into practice.

Before I came to Britain, I read in the paper that, to prevent further soil erosion / the soil (from) being further eroded, local governments in western China have prohibited / forbidden felling and provided new jobs for former timber cutters. I felt / was relieved to read that. But, at the same time, I was concerned / worried that many people still ignored / turned a blind eye to the destruction of nature / the destruction that nature suffered. The environmental issue is ultimately a social issue. / In the final analysis, the environmental issue is a social issue. As long as / So long as there are people who pursue / seek short-term benefits at the expense of nature / at the cost of sacrificing nature, nature will continue to suffer. We should have long-term plans to use technology to restore nature / to restore nature by technological means instead of robbing / plundering her // rather than rob / plunder her; we should show greater care and love for Mother Nature and for all her children.

I was born in a province in western China, where I once met a retired timber cutter. He told me that, before his retirement / before he retired, he was awarded a medal as the first man in China to cut 100,000 trees. After his retirement, however, he made up his mind to plant / that he would plant twice as many trees as // twice / double the trees he had cut down. Up to now, he has been planting trees for a dozen

years or so. I can still recall / call to mind his weather-beaten face, and his big, coarse hands. I wish him to be still healthy. I wish the trees he has planted to be thriving / flourishing / luxuriant. And most of all / above all / most importantly, I hope that, just as this old man has been doing, all of us will give nature back / pay nature back / repay nature twice as much as we take from her. Working with our own hands, we will green our future.

第13课

奴隶制度与资本主义(二)

这就是说/ 这意味着,在从十五世纪至十九世纪末的四百年中,非洲因被抓去当奴隶或被屠杀而丧失了约六千五百万至七千五百万人;而且,这些人是非洲人中的精华,因为在通常情况下,人们不会把老弱病残抓去当奴隶。非洲各国人民能在这场空前的浩劫中幸存下来,而且今天比以前任何时候人数都更多,组织得更好,甚至即将获得彻底的民族解放,确实是人类历史的一大奇迹。

但是,非洲对欧洲资本主义、美洲殖民地以及美国资本主义的发展做出的最主要贡献,当然不在于奴隶贸易本身——尽管那是有利可图的——而在于奴隶制,在于上千万的黑人在长达两个多世纪的时间里被迫从事的无偿劳动/ 无偿的强迫劳动。

在说明美国资本主义发展迅速、规模巨大的原因时,史学家们指出了几个因素,这是正确的:一是美国幅员辽阔,资源极其丰富;二是远离 / 没有遭受欧洲那种连续不断的毁灭性战乱,战乱使美国的竞争对手倒退,而美国资产阶级却从中获取暴利;三是好几代人的时间里,欧洲人、亚洲人和拉丁美洲人移居美国,带来了技术和体力(还带来了种族差异,统治和剥削他们也因此而更加容易)。四是长期存在着资产阶级民主共和国这种适合资本主义早期发展和成熟的理想的政权形式 / 存在着资产阶级民主共和国,这是适合资本主义早期发展和成熟的理想的政权形式。所有这些因素都具有重大的意义。

汉英翻译教程1

《汉英翻译教程》-作者不详,在此致谢! 第一章 词的选择 词义的正确选择首先取决于对原文的确切理解,而对原文词义的确切理解又取决于对原文上下文的推敲。有些词看起来很简单,翻译时一下子就会想到常用的对应词。但又是最常用的对应词却不能准确地表达原作的意思。例如: 还要努力读一点历史和小说。 We should also find time to read some history books and novels. 这里“努力”一词理解为“挤出时间”是对的,如译为make an effort,则会使人误解为我们文化水平低,读历史和小说很费力。 再比如“水平”一词译成英语,不一定都是level, 要根据句子的含义确定译法。 1.他的英语水平比我的高。 He knows more English than I. 这里,汉语“水平”一词虽未译出,但其以已含在句子中。若照汉语字面应译成:The level of his English is higher than that of mine.就不符合英语表达习惯。 2.要奋发图强,把我军的军政素质提高到一个新的水平……。 We must work hard to r aise to a new height the military and political quality of our army……. 这里“水平”指高度,故译作height,和动词搭配也比较顺。 3.各级领导干部必须提高领导水平。 Cadres at all levels should improve their art of leadership. 这里的“领导水平”,实际上指领导能力、领导艺术、故译作art of leadership. 以上的例子说明一个词的具体含义往往要结合上下文才能确定,在翻译的时候也只有结合上下文来考虑怎样处理这个词,才能译得准确。因此在辨析词义和正确选词时可注意下列几种情况。 (一)注意词的广义与狭义 英语中有不少同义词的词义有广、狭之区别,运用范围也就各不相同。例如 1.农业是国民经济的基础。 Agriculture is the foundation of the national economy. 原文“农业”一词是广义,指一切农业经济(农、牧、林、渔),古译作agriculture。但在“农林牧副渔结合的方针”中,农与林木副渔并立,是指耕作的农业,不是指整个农业经济,古译作farming。整个词组应译为the principle of combining farming, forestry, animal husbandry, side-occupations and fishery. 2.他从不喝酒。 He never touches wine. 原文“酒”是指一切酒类,故译作wine。但在“他不喝烈性酒”一句中,“酒”是狭义,是和淡性酒相对而言的,又需译作spirits。 (二)注意词义的强弱 3.反动派的暴行激起了人民的极大愤怒。 The atrocities of the reactionaries roused the people to great indignation. 这里的“愤怒”含义强烈,故在译文中选用了indignation,而不用anger. 4.孙中山是个好人。 Dr. Sun Y et-sen was a man of integrity. 如果译作a good man, 则与这位伟大的革命先行者的身份不相称。 (三)注意词义的褒贬

科技阅读翻译第一单元

第一单元环境 大规模研究发现:地球的“健康”每况愈下有史以来对地球进行的最大规模的科学分析表明,地球上的许多生态系统都达不到标准。 由联合国主持的《千年生态系统评估综合报告》指出,由于不可持续的使用,地球上将近三分之二的用来维持生命的生态系统已经遭到破坏,其中包括干净的水源、纯净的空气,以及稳定的气候。 以上大部分的破坏都是人类在过去的半个世纪里造成的。据报告分析,随着人类对食物、淡水、木材、纤维以及燃料等资源的需求日趋激增,环境发生了极大的变化,引发了诸如滥伐森林、化学污染等问题。因此,该报告的作者警告说,照此下去,本已岌岌可危的生态环境将会在21世纪的上半叶急剧恶化。 这项历史性的研究由来自世界95个国家的政府部门以及民间组织的1,300多位科学家共同完成。四年来,他们考察了地球上许多生物的生长环境、物种以及将他们联系起来的生态体系。联合国环境规划署对该报告进行了编辑整理并于昨天在中国北京公布了研究结果。 在公布该报告的新闻发布会上,联合国秘书长科菲·安南指出:“只有了解环境及其运作过程,我们才能制定出必要的决策加以保护。”他还说,“只有珍惜所有宝贵的自然资源和人类资源,我们才有希望去建设一个可持续发展的未来。” 对社会经济的影响 该报告对自然界的大部分生物多样性持悲观态度,地球上可能有10%—30%的哺乳动物,鸟类以及两栖动物濒临灭绝。 这次大规模生态调查是根据安南的《千年发展目标》展开的,该发展目标是由联合国发起的,旨在2015年之前大幅度缓解饥饿与极度贫困等社会经济问题。 总部位于内罗毕的联合国环境规划署执行主席克劳斯·托普弗说:“从某些方面来说,《千年生态系统评估综合报告》让我们首次认识到生态系统服务功能的经济价值,并使我们对尊重和保护地球生命维护系统有了新的见解。” 目前由于人类社会对地球环境的开发利用,食物供应不断增加,然而增长的速度仍然太慢,难以完成联合国制定的在2015年前消除全球一半饥饿的目标。 报告还说,过度使用生态系统的负面影响还包括渔业的衰退,含有大量沉积物的河口周围近海“死亡区”的出现,水质的变化以及不可预测的区域性气候等。 此外,森林的滥伐和其他生态系统的巨大改变也加剧了诸如疟疾、霍乱等疾病的传播,并使已有传染病分化出新的类别。 根据该报告,水资源体系的变化会增加毁灭性洪灾的爆发频率和程度。在20世纪90年代,洪灾造成的死亡人数超过10万,损失约2,430亿美元。

研究生科技英语阅读课文翻译6

1 While some studies have suggested that frequent use of cell phones causes increased risk of brain and mouth cancers, others have found no such links. But since cell phones are relatively new and brain cancers grow slowly, many experts are now recommending taking steps to reduce exposure. by bruce stutz 一些研究显示,经常使用手机会增加得脑部和口腔癌症的几率。有的研究却没发现两者之间有什么联系。但是,手机算是个新兴事物,而脑癌发展也缓慢,许多专家还是建议减少使用手机。 2 Does your cell phone increase your risk of brain cancer? Does it affect your skin or your sperm viability? Is it safe for pregnant women or children? Should you keep it in your bag, on your belt, in your pants or shirt pocket? Should you use a hands-free headset? Are present cell phone safety standards strict enough? 手机会增加得脑癌的几率吗?会不会影响皮肤或者精子活性?使用手机对孕妇或孩子安全吗?应该把手机放在哪,包里、衣服口袋,还是挂在腰带上?打电话的时候要用耳机吗?现在的手机安全标准够不够严? 3 You don’t know? You’re not alone. 你不知道?这很正常。 4 With some 4 to 5 billion cell phones now in use worldwide and hundreds of studies seeking evidence of their health effects published in peer-reviewed journals over the last 10 years, there’s precious little scientific certainty over whether cell phones pose any danger to those using them. For nearly every study that reports an effect, another, just as carefully conducted, finds none. All of which leaves journalists, consumer advocates, regulatory agencies, politicians, industry spokespersons, and cell phone users able to choose and interpret the results they prefer, or ignore the ones they don’t. 如今,全世界共有40-50亿手机正在使用。过去十年里,成百上千的研究也在致力于寻找手机影响健康的证据,并在相关刊物上发表论文。但还没有确凿的证据能证明,使用手机损害健康。几乎没有研究发现手机对健康有不良影响。但这还是没影响到政治家、新闻记者、管理机构、产业发言人、消费者保护团体,还有消费者自己,选择他们喜好的结果去理解,忽略不喜欢的那些。 5 Do you, for instance, cite the studies that report adverse effects on sperm viability and motility, due to exposure to cell phone radiation or the studies that showed no —or mixed —results? 6 Do you cite the 2001 study that found increased incidence of uveal melanoma (a cancer of the eye) among frequent cell phone users, or the 2009 study by the same authors that, in reassessing their data, found no increase? 2001年的研究显示,常用手机的人患葡萄膜黑色素瘤(一种眼内癌症)几率会增大。2009年这些研究员又发表报告称,他们再分析当年的数据时,又不能确

Unit1 A new study shows that dogs can detect if someone has cancer just by sniffing the person’s breath. Ordinary household dogs with only a few weeks of basic training learn to accurately distinguish between breath samples of lung- and breast-cancer patients and healthy subjects.One expert, who led the research, said, “Our study provides compelling evidence that cancers hidden beneath the skin can be detected simply by (dogs’) examining the odors of a person’s breath.” Early detection of cancers greatly improves a patient’s survival chances, and researchers hope that man’s best friend, the dog, can become an important tool in early screening. Unit 2 A research team recently replicated a bacterium’s genetic structure entirely from l aboratory chemicals, moving one step closer to creating the world’s first artificial organism. The researchers said, “It’s the second step of a three-step process to create a synthetic organism. But the final step could prove far more difficult.” Nonetheless, the research is pushing forward at a rapid pace. Last June, the team revealed details of an experiment in which researchers inserted the DNA of one species of bacterium into the cells of another. That process almost magically booted up the inserted genome. The research team hopes to use a similar trick to boot up the artificially created genome, so as to create a man-made living organism. Unit 3 In recent years, the psychologists from many countries banded together to do a research which indicated that continued income growth could make people apply themselves to an ongoing consumption race rather than promote overall happiness. Everyone has to spend more and more money in order to maintain a constant level of happiness. This is because our vanity and jealousy are functioning . The way to sort out them out is to cultivate the noble sentiment of being considerate and serving the society. People shouldn’t pin all their hopes on money. Instead , friends, family and work are also playing a very improtant role . Therefore, hapiness is not an inborn trait, but a talent which everyone can learn. Unit 4 I used to feel excited at teaching my students the elegant economic theories that could supposedly cure societal problems of all types. But what is the good of all my complex theories when people were dying of starvation on the sidewalks and porches across from my lecture hall? My lessons were like the American movies where the good guys always win. But when I emerged from the comfort of the classroom, I was faced with the reality of the city streets. Here good guys were mercilessly beaten and trampled. Daily life ws getting worse, and the poor were growing even poorer. Unit 5 No one thought that shy little Einstein would grow up to a prominent scientist. He was slow in learning to speak, and he often paused to consider what he would say during a conversation.In school, Albert Einstein was singled out by his teachers as a troublesome child because he liked to ask difficult strange questions. He did not like to memorize facts and rules, but was interested in what lay below the surface of things. When he was four or five years old, for instance, his father gave him a compass. Little Einstein was curious about the mysterious force that could keep a compass needle always pointing north, which prompted him to read widely in science. His real studies were mostly done at home by reading books on mathematics, physics, and philosophy. Unit 6 Most Americans have great vigor and enthusiasm. They prefer to discipline themselves rather than be disciplined by others. They pride themselves on their independence, their right to make their own minds. They tend to take the initiatives, even when there is a risk in doing so. They have courage and do not give in easily. They are considered sentimental. When they see a flag on ceremonial occasions, or attend parades celebrating Ame rica’s glorious past, tears may come to their eyes. They tend to be emotional at the reunions with family and friends, too. Sometimes, they can laugh at themselves and their country, while they will always remain intensely patriotic.

Why We're Fat 1 So why is obesity happening? The obvious, clichéd-but-true answer is that we eat too much high-calorie food and don't burn it off with enough exercise. If only we had more willpower, the problem would go away. But it isn't that easy. 为什么会有肥胖症?一个明显、老生常谈但又真实的答案就是我们吃太多高热量食物并且没有进行足够的运动消耗它。要是我们的意志力更强大,这个问题便迎刃而解了。但是,问题并不是那么简单。 2 When warned about the dangers of overeating, we get briefly spooked and try to do better. Then we're offered a plateful of pancakes smothered in maple syrup, our appetite overpowers our reason, and before we know it, we're at it again. Just why is appetite such a powerful driver of behavior, and, more important, how can we tame it? 当我们被警告说吃得太多的时候,一时总会被吓倒并努力做好一些。然后一碟涂满槭糖浆的煎饼摆在面前,我们的食欲战胜了我们的理智,等到我们意识到它的时候,我们又重蹈覆辙了。到底为什么食欲具有如此强大的推动力?更重要的是,我们怎么才能够控制它? 3 Within the past few years, science has linked our ravenous appetites to genes and hormones. Among the hormones that fuel these urges are ghrelin and leptin, known as the "hunger hormones." Ghrelin is produced mostly by cells in the stomach lining. Its job is to make you feel hungry by affecting the hypothalamus, which governs metabolism. Ghrelin levels rise in dieters who lose weight and then try to keep it off. It's almost as if their bodies are trying to regain the lost fat. This is one reason why it's hard to lose weight and maintain the loss. 近几年来,科学将我们迫不及待要吃的食欲跟基因和激素联系起来。激起这些强烈的欲望的激素有胃促生长素和消瘦素,也被称作“饥饿激素”。胃促生长素主要由胃保护层的细胞产生。它的职责是影响控制新陈代谢的下丘脑,让你感到饥饿。当节食者减肥并且努力维持减肥效果,他的胃促生长素水平就会升高。就像他们的身体要试图恢复失去的脂肪。这是为什么很难减肥并维持减肥效果的原因之一。 4 Leptin turns your appetite off and is made by fat cells. Low leptin levels increase your appetite and signal your body to store more fat. High leptin levels relay the opposite signal. Many obese people have developed a resistance to the appetite-suppressing effects of leptin and never feel satisfied, no matter how much they eat. Basically, your body uses these hormones to help you stay at your weight and keep you from losing fat —which is another reason why dieting can be so difficult. 消瘦素消除你的食欲,它来自脂肪细胞。低消瘦素水平增加你的食欲并通知你的身体储存更多的脂肪。高消瘦素水平传递相反的信号。很多肥胖的人已经形成了一种对消瘦素抑制食欲效应的抵抗,不管他们吃多少也从不感到满足。从根本上说,你的身体利用这些激素帮助你保持现在的体重,不让你的脂肪流走——这是节食如此之难的另外一个原因。
