●Along the road walked an old man. He was white-headed as a mountain, bowed in the shoulders, and

faded in general aspect. He wore a glazed hat, an ancient boat-cloak, and shoes: his brass buttons bearing an anchor upon their face.In his hand was a silver-headed walking-stick, which he used as a veritable third leg, perseveringly dotting the ground with its point at very few inches’ interval. One would have said that he had been, in his day, a naval officer of some sort or other. (T. Hardy, The Return of the Native) 一个老头儿顺着这条大道走来。他满头的白发,好像一座雪山,两个肩膀伛偻着,穿着一双皮鞋,他的衣服上钉的那些痛纽子上面还刻着船锚。他手里拿着一跟镶着银把的手杖,简直跟他的第三条腿一样,每隔几时,他就非把它的下端往地上一拄不了,看他那种样子,一准会有人说,他当年大概是海军军官一流人物。(张谷若)

●His bulk for a Malay was immense, but he did not look merely fat; he looked imposing, monumental.

This motionless body, clad in rich stuffs, colouredsilks, gold embroideries; this huge head, enfolded in

a red-and-gold head-kerchief; the flat, big round face, wrinkled, furrowed, with two semicircular

heavy folds starting on each side of wide, fierce nostrils, and enclosing a thick-lipped mouth; the throat like a bull; the vast corrugated brow overhanging the staring proud eyes---made a whole that, once seen, can never be forgotten. (Joseph Conrad, Lord Jim) 他的身躯,就马来人说,是硕大无比的,但他并不是单单显得胖;他看上去魁梧而且雄壮。那稳定不动的身体,穿着华贵的衣饰,染色的丝绸,同金织的锦绣;那庞大的头儿,裹着赤紫的头巾;扁平的大圆脸,满起着皱纹,另有两条半圆形的粗纹,从宽大凶猛的鼻孔两旁出发,围绕着厚厚的嘴唇;脖子像匹公牛;宽阔皱蹙的眉毛,罩在骄横的圆睁睁的眼睛上,——整个儿合在一起,叫你看见一回之后,永远再也不能忘记。(梁遇春袁家骅)

●The words referred to a broad, round-shouldered, one-sided old fellow in mourning, coming comically

ambling towards the corner, dressed in a pea overcoat, and carrying a large stick. He wore thick shoes, and thick leather gaiters, and thick gloves like a hedger’s. Both as to his dress and to himself, he was of an overlapping rhinoceros build, with folds in his cheeks, and his forehead, and his eyelids, and his lips, and his ears; but with bright, eager, childishly-inquiring grey eyes, under his ragged eyebrows, and broad-brimmed had. A very odd-looking old fellow altogether. (C. Dickens, Our Mutual Friend)这句话是对一个壮实、圆肩膀、斜着身子走路的、穿件丧服的老头子说的,他正步态轻盈地、样子有些儿滑稽地向拐角上走来,穿一件豆绿色的外套,拿一根大手杖,脚登一双厚底鞋,罩着厚皮的鞋罩子,一双厚手套,像是修篱笆的园丁戴的。从他的装束和他本人来看,都像是头满身皱折的犀牛,他的面颊上,额头上,眼皮上,嘴唇上和耳朵上,满都是皱折;但是,在他乱蓬蓬的眉毛和宽檐帽子下面,都是一双明亮、亲切、孩子般好奇的灰色的眼睛。总之是个样子非常古怪的老头子。(智量)

●At this moment, there walked into the room: supporting himself by a thick stick, a stout old gentleman,

rather lame in one leg, who was dressed in a blue coat, striped waist-coat, nankeen breeches and gaiters, and a broad-brimmed white hat, with the sides turned up with green. A very small-plaited shirt frill stuck out from his waistcoat; and a very long steel watch-chain, with nothing but a key at the end, dangled loosely below it. The ends of his white neckerchief were twisted into a ball about the size of an orange; the variety of shapes into which his countenance was twisted, defy description. He had a manner of screwing his head on one side when he spoke; and of looking out of the corners of his eyes at the same time: which irresistibly remained the beholder of a parrot. (C. Dickens, Oliver Twist) 就在这当儿,屋里走进一位胖胖的老绅士,拄着一根挺粗的手杖,一条腿颇有点瘸;他穿一件蓝色的外套、一件条纹背心和一条本色布面马裤,下面裹一幅皮绑腿,头戴翻起绿色镶边的宽檐白

1

礼貌。从背心里面露出一条裥打得很密的衬衫褶边,背心的口袋外面晃荡着一条很长的怀表链,表链末端只有一把钥匙,别无他物。他的白围巾的边角卷成桔子般大小的一个球。至于他扭动的面部作出的种种奇形怪状简直难画难描。他说起话来有把头转向一边的习惯,同时用眼角斜睨,旁人看了都会情不自禁地联想起一只鹦鹉。(荣如德)

●This gentleman was about thirty-five years of age. He was of a middle size, and what is called well

built. He had a scar on his forehead, which did not so much injure his beauty as it denoted his valour (for he was a half-pay office). He had good teeth, and something affable, when he please, in his smile;

though naturally his countenance, as well as his air and voice, and appear all gentleness and good humour. (Henry Fielding, The History of Tom Jones) 这为先生年约三十五岁,中等身材,体格可以说是挺健壮的。额上有块疤痕,那并无损于他的俊秀,却足以表明他的骁勇——他是个退伍军官。他的牙齿很美,而且只要他愿意,笑起来也能显出和蔼可亲的样子。虽然他的相貌神情和嗓音都带着一股粗鲁气,可是他随时都可以收敛起来,显得温柔体贴,好脾气。(萧乾李从弼)●The innkeeper himself was a man of from forty to forty-five years of age, tall, strong, and bony, a

perfect specimen of the natives of those Southern latitudes. He had the dark, sparkling, and deep-set eye, curved nose, and teeth white as those of a carnivorous animal; his hair, which, spite of the light touch time had as yet left on it, seemed as though it refused to assume any other colour than its own, was like his beard, which he wore under his chin, thick and curly, and but slightly mingled with a few silvery threads. (Alexandre Dumas, The Count of Monte Cristo, trans. Lowell Bair) 客栈老板是一个年约四十至四十五岁的人,身材高大强壮,骨骼粗大,实是法国南部人的一个好标本。他有闪闪发光而深陷的黑眼睛,弯曲的鼻子和像一只食肉兽那样雪白的牙齿。他的头发,虽然经过时间的吹拂,却似乎不愿变白,像他蓄在颔下的胡须一样,茂密而卷曲,但已略微混入了几根银丝。(蒋学模)

●The child was small for his age, and unnaturally pale. A mass of straight black hair, defying all

attempts to train or curl it, fell over his projecting forehead, and hung down to his shoulders, giving increased vivacity to eyes already sparkling with a youthful love of mischief and fondness for every forbidden enjoyment. His mouth was large, and the lips, which had not yet regained their colour, were particularly thin; in fact, the deep and crafty look, forming the principal character of the child’s face, belonged rather to a boy of twelve or fourteen years of age, than to one so young. 那个孩子发育不足,脸色特别苍白。头发直而黑,虽然曾想法使它卷曲,却并没有多大的效果,有一大绺头发从他那凸出的前额上挂下来,直垂到他的肩头,那一对充满了狡诈阴险和顽皮执拗的眼睛显得十分机灵活泼。他的嘴巴很大,嘴唇极薄,还没有恢复血色;从这个孩子的脸上,一眼就可以看出他的个性深沉而诡谲,他的面貌倒实在像是一个十三四岁的孩子,不像是这样年幼的。(同上)

●He was a slender little creature, more like an Italian in a sixteenth-century portrait than a middle-class

English lad of the thirties. Form the long eyebrows and sensitive mouth to the small hands and feet, everything about him was too much chiseled, overdelicate. Sitting still, he might have been taken for a very pretty girl masquerading in male attire; but when he moved, his lithe agility suggested a tame panther without the claws. (E. L. V oynich, The Gadfly) 他那苗条瘦弱的身躯不像是30年代英国中等阶层的青年人,倒颇有些像肖像里所描绘的16世纪意大利小伙子,从他那长长的睫毛,敏感的嘴角到娇小的手脚,身体各个部位都显得那么精致,轮廓又格外分明。静静地坐在那里,准会有人把他当作一个漂亮的女扮男装的少女;一旦走动起来,他那轻柔活泼的姿态,立即会使人想到一只驯服了的没有利爪的黑豹。(司仁)

●He was, now, a huge, strong fellow of six feet high, broad in proportion, and round-shouldered; but

with a simpering boy’s face and curly light hair that gave him quite a sheepish look. He was dressed in

a canvas jacket, and a pair of such very stiff trousers that they would have stood quite as well alone,

without any legs in them. And you couldn’t so properly have said he wore a had, as that he was covered in stop, like an old building, with something pitchy. (C. Dickens, David Copperfield) 他现在长得又大有壮,身高六英尺,虎背熊腰。但是他脸上却老带着憨笑的样子,仍旧一团孩气,有上又满是淡色的鬈发,因此显得十分腼腆羞涩。他穿着一件帆布茄克,一条很硬的裤子,硬得好像用不着有腿在里面撑着,只凭裤子自各儿就可以挺起来。他头上与其说戴着帽子,还不如说顶着一件涂有沥青、像一所老房子的房顶似的东西更恰当。(张谷若)

●Mr. Benjamin Allen was a coarse, stout, thick-set young man, with black hair cut rather short, and a

white face cut rather long. He was embellished with spectacles, and wore a white neckerchief. Below his single-breasted black surtout, which was buttoned up to his chin, appeared the usual number of pepper-and-salt coloured legs, terminating in a pair of imperfectly polished boots. Although his coat was short in sleeves, it disclosed no vestage of a linen wristband; and although there was quite enough of his face to admit of the encroachment of a shirt collar, it was not graced by the smallest approach to that appendage. He presented, altogether, rather a mildewy appearance, and emitted a fragrant odour of full-flavoured Cubas. (C. Dickens, Pickwick Papers) 班杰明·爱伦先生是一个粗气的、强壮的、矮胖的青年,黑头发剪得短短的。他戴着眼镜,围着白领巾。在他那件一直扣到下巴的、黑色的、单排纽扣的紧身外套下面,露出椒盐色的通常数目的腿子。腿子完结的地方是一双没有全檫上油的靴子。他的上衣的袖子虽短,却看不见亚麻布袖口的踪影;他的脸虽然足有地方容许衬衫领子来侵占,却没有丝毫类似这种附属品的东西光临。他的样子,整个说来,是一副有点儿发了霉的样子,并且发出加了充分香料的古巴斯的气味。(蒋天佐)

●Morel was then twenty-seven years old. He was well set-up, erect, and very smart. He had wavy black

hair that shone again, and a vigorous black beard that had never been shaved. His cheeks were ruddy, and his red, moist mouth was noticeable because he laughed so often and so heartily. (D. H. Lawrence, Sons and Lovers) 莫瑞尔当时二十七岁,体格强壮,身体挺拔,仪表堂堂,头发自然卷曲,乌黑发亮,胡须浓密茂盛而且不加修饰,满面红光,嘴唇红润,又笑口常开,所以非常引人注目。

他的笑声浑厚而响亮,与众不同。(刘之一张燕鸿张金玲)

●The boy who addressed this inquiry to the young wayfarer, was about his own age: but one of the

queerest looking boys that Oliver had ever seen. He was a snub-nosed, flat-browed, common-faced boy enough; and as dirty a juvenile as one would wish to see; but he had about him all the airs and manners of a man. He was short of his age: with rather bow legs, and little, sharp, ugly eyes. His hat was stuck on the top of his head so lightly, that it threatened to fall off every moment---and would have done so, very often, if the wearer had not had a knack of every now and then giving his head a sudden twitch, which brought it back to its old place again he wore a man’s coat, which reached nearly to his heels. He had turned the cuffs back, half-way up his corduroy trousers; for there he kept them.

He was, altogether, as roystering and swaggering a young gentleman as ever stood four feet six, or something less, in his bluchers. (C. Dickens, Oliver Twist) 向徒步而行的奥立弗提出这个问题的少年同他差不多年纪,但这是奥立弗所看到过的样子最古怪的一个。他长着一条狮子鼻,额头扁平,其貌不扬,而且这个少年的邋遢委实罕见,可是他摆出一副十足的大人气派。按年龄来说,他的个儿较矮,两条罗圈腿弯得很厉害,一双鼠目尖利而讨厌。他的帽子在头顶上戴得极不牢靠,随时有掉下来的危险;若非戴帽子的少年(帽子的主人)掌握着一种诀窍,不时把脑袋骤然一晃,使帽子复归原位,它肯定会经常跌落下来。他穿一件几乎拖到脚跟的大人外套,袖口翻到衬窝里,让一双手露在袖外,其根本目的显然是为了把它们插进灯心绒的口袋,现在他的手就插在那里。总之,这是一位少见的装腔作势、好拿架子的小绅士,身高四英尺六英寸,也许还不到,足登一双系带的高帮皮鞋。(荣如德)

最新01-14年专八汉译英(附答案)

01到14年专八汉译英真题及答案: 2014年本题是一篇典型的文学翻译,原文选自老舍名篇《我的母亲》。老舍的作品生活气息浓郁,语言朴实直白。因此,在翻译本篇时不仅要注意忠实于文字意义,更要忠实地再现原文的语言风格,所以要避免用过于高级的词汇表达和句子结构,用平实的语句表达出原文的精神面貌。 当我在小学毕了业的时候,亲友一致的愿意我去学手艺,好帮助母亲。我晓得我应当去找饭吃,以减轻母亲的勤劳困苦。可是,我也愿意升学。我偷偷的考入了师范学校——制服,饭食,书籍,宿处,都由学校供给。只有这样,我才敢对母亲说升学的话。入学,要交十圆的保证金。这是一笔巨款!母亲作了半个月的难,把这巨款筹到,而后含泪把我送出门去。她不辞劳苦,只要儿子有出息。当我由师范毕业,而被派为小学校校长,母亲与我都一夜不曾合眼。我只说了句:“以后,您可以歇一歇了!”她的回答只有一串串的眼泪。 参考译文:After I graduated from primary school,relatives and friends all suggested that I should drop out and learn a trade to help my mother. Although I knew that I ought to seek a livelihood to relieve mother of hard work and distress,I still aspired to go on with study. So I kept learning secretly. I had no courage to tell mother about the idea until admitted to a normal school which provided free uniforms,books,room and board. To enter the school,I had to pay ten Yuan as a deposit. This was a large sum of money for my family. However,after two weeks' tough effort,mother managed to raise the money and sent me off to school in tears afterwards. She would spare no pains for her son to win a bright future. On the day when I was appointed the schoolmaster after graduation,mother and I spent a sleepless night. I said to her,"you can have a rest in the future." but she replied nothing,only with tears streaming down her face. 2013年 生活像一杯红酒,热爱生活的人会从中品出无穷的美妙。将它握在手中观察,它的暗红有血的感觉,那正是生命的痕迹。抿一口留在口中回味,它的甘甜有一丝苦涩,如人生一般复杂迷离。喝一口下肚,余香润人心肺,让人终受益。红酒越陈越美味,生活越丰富越美好。当人生走向晚年,就如一瓶待开封的好酒,其色彩是沉静的,味道中充满慷慨于智慧。 Life is like a cup of wine; people who love it discover inexhaustible wonders from it. Hold in the hand and gaze at it, the dark red color is reminiscent of the blood, which is the impress of life. Take a sip of it and appreciate the taste, the bittersweet flavor is exactly the same with life, which is complicated and blurred. Once the sip is swallowed, the lingering fragrance pleases the heart and refreshes the mind, leaving a person lifelong benefit. There was a remarkable resemblance between life and wine: the taste becomes more delicious as the wine mellows, just as life gets better as it becomes more abundant. When life comes to twilight years, it looks calm and tastes full of wisdom and generosity, just like a bottle of wine to be savored.

一、The old gentleman, however, seemed cheerful enough; and it was plain that he took an interest in the strangers, and wished to make their acquaintance. This was soon effected by the friendly waiter; and after a little talk the old man invited them to visit his villa and garden which were just outside the walls of the town. So the next afternoon, when the sun began to descend, and they saw in glimpses through door-ways and windows, blue shadows beginning to spread over the brown mountains, they went to pay their visit. It was not much of a place, a small, modernized, stucco villa, with a hot pebbly garden, and in it a stone basin with torpid gold-fish, and a statue of Diana and her hounds against the wall. But what gave a glory to it was a gigantic rose-tree which clambered over the house, almost smothering the windows, and filling the air with the perfume of its sweetness. Yes, it was a fine rose, the Conte said proudly when they praised it, and he would tell the Signora about it. And as they sat there, drinking the wine he offered them, he alluded with the cheerful indifference of old age to his love-affair, as though he took for granted that they had heard of it already. 译文: 然而,这位老先生看起来心情非常愉快;显然他对这两位陌生人很感兴趣,并愿意与他们结交.在热心的服务生的帮助下,他们很快相识了;短暂的交谈之后,老人便邀请他们去他城墙外不远的别墅与花园做客. 于是次日下午,夕阳西落,从开启的门窗轻轻瞥去,他们看到,兰色暗影已渐渐笼罩棕褐的山峦,他们便欣然动身。那里很平常,矗立着一座现代化小型别墅座,表面粉刷了一层灰泥。还有一座铺满鹅卵石的花园,园里石砌水池中有几尾金鱼慵懒地游动。靠墙的地方有一尊守猎女神及其猎犬的雕像。但是使这小园生辉的是一颗巨大的玫瑰树。树已长过屋顶,几乎完全遮住了窗户。空气中满是玫瑰的芳香。这株玫瑰的确不错,听了客人夸奖,伯爵得意地说。他还表示非常乐意把树的来历讲给夫人听。于是他们坐在那里,一边饮酒,一边听他以老年人满不在乎神情,愉快地提及他的那一段往日爱情,仿佛他相信他们对此一定早有耳闻 二、We live in an ascending scale when we live happily, one thing leading to another in an endless series. There is always a new horizon for onward-looking men, and although we dwell on a small planet, immersed in petty business and not enduring beyond a brief period of years, we are so constituted that our hopes are inaccessible, like stars, and the term of hoping is prolonged until the term of life. To be truly happy is a question of how we begin and not of how we end, of what we want and not of what we have. 参考译文:

1996年高等院校英语专业八级考试 https://www.sodocs.net/doc/bd18849760.html,/tem8/tem-8-96translation.htm C-E原文: 近读报纸,对国内名片和请柬的议论颇多,于是想起客居巴黎时经常见到的法国人手中的名片和请柬,随笔记下来,似乎不无借鉴之处。 在巴黎,名目繁多的酒会,冷餐会是广交朋友的好机会。在这种场合陌生人相识,如果是亚洲人,他们往往开口之前先毕恭毕敬地用双手把自己的名片呈递给对方,这好像是不可缺少的礼节。然而,法国人一般却都不大主动递送名片,双方见面寒暄几句,甚至海阔天空地聊一番也就各自走开,只有当双方谈话投机,希望继续交往时,才会主动掏出名片。二话不说先递名片反倒显得有些勉强。 法国人的名片讲究朴素大方,印制精美,但很少有镶金边儿的,闪光多彩的或带香味的,名片上的字体纤细秀丽,本人的名字也不过分突出,整张纸片上空白很大,毫无拥挤不堪的感觉。 参考译文: Version 1: In reading recent newspapers, I have come to find that people in China have become more and more interested in discussing name cards and invitation letters. This reminds me of the name cards and invitation

letters of the French people that I saw when I was sojourning in Paris. In writing down those random reminiscences, I believe that they might provide some useful information for us to learn. In Paris, cocktail parties and buffet receptions of different kinds offer great opportunities for making friends. On such occasions, strangers may get to know each other. If they are Asians, they will, very respectfully and with both hands, present their calling cards to their interlocutors before any conversation starts. This seems to be the required courtesy on their part. The French, however, usually are not so ready with such a formality. Both sides will greet each other, and even chat casually about any topic and then excuse themselves. Only when they find they like each other and hope to further the relationship will they exchange cards. It will seem very unnatural to do so before any real conversation gets under way. The French tend to take extraordinary precaution in making their name cards, simple yet elegant. Exquisitely designed and printed, their name cards are seldom golden-framed, or colorfully shiny, or tinted with fragrant smells. The letters which appearing on their name cards tend to be diminutive but beautiful, not allowing the name of the card-bearer t be overly prominent / salient. The entire card leaves much empty space, imparting no sense of over-crowdedness.

2016专八真题翻译题及答案详解

2016年专八翻译题及答案详解 “流逝”表现了南国人对时间最早的感觉。子在川上曰:“逝者如斯夫。”他们发现无论是潺潺小溪,还是浩荡大河,都一去不复返,流逝之际青年变成了老翁而绿草转眼就枯黄,很自然有错阴的紧迫感。流逝也许是缓慢的,但无论如何缓慢,对流逝的恐惧使人们必须用“流逝”这个词来时时警戒后人,必须急匆匆地行动,给这个词灌注一种紧张感。 【参考译文1】 They have found that the flowing water,either a murmuring stream or a mighty river, passes quickly and never returns. With the passage of time, the young become the old and the green grass turns yellow. People naturallyhave a sense of urgency to value every bit of time. As time goes by,no matter how slowly it elapses, people always use the word “liushi” to warn thelater generations for fear of time’s flowing away. They tell their descendants to treasure every single minute and make a hurried action, which adds a sense of tension to the word. 【参考译文2】 They find that either a murmuring stream or a mighty river has gone forever and that the passage of time turns a young man into an old one, and yellows of the grass, which sends a massage of how time flies. Maybe the passing of time is slow. But no matter how slow it is, it makes people so fearful that they use “passage” to warn the later generations to rush. And the use of “passage” also infuses a sense of tension into the word. 【参考译文3】

The town collected to see them depart, and the children ran after their carriage through the gate of the little city. They heard a rush of feet behind them for a few moments, but soon they were far down towards the valley; the little town with all its noise and life was high above them on its mountain peak. She had planted the rose at home, where it had grown and flourished in a wonderful manner; and every June the great mass of leaves and shoots still broke out into a passionate splendour of scent and crimson colour, as if in its root and fibres there still burnt the anger and thwarted desire of that Italian lover. Of course the old Conte must have died many years ago; she had forgotten his name, and had even forgotten the name of the mountain city that she had stayed in, after first seeing it twinkling at dawn in the sky, like a nest of stars. 参考译文: 次日,他们的马车修好了,上山来接他们。在就要离开旅馆之际,伯爵的老仆赶来了,送来一根包扎整齐的玫瑰枝条,并转达了伯爵旅途愉快的祝福。小城中的居民都赶来目送他们离去,孩童们也追随在车子后面,一直跟到小城门外。开始他们还能听到身后散乱的脚步声,但不久车子便驶入山谷,而这座喧闹的小城依然高高耸立于他们头顶的山颠. 她把玫瑰种在家中.玫瑰的长势非常好,枝繁叶茂;每年六月,在片片绿叶与新芽之中,绽放出绚丽的红花,散发出浓郁的香味,仿佛它的根须之间依旧燃烧着那位意大利情人的愤怒与没能实现的渴望。当然老伯爵肯定早已去世多年;而她也记不起他的名字了,甚至连她所住过的那座小城的名字也忘记了,虽然她曾经在拂晓之时看它犹如满天的繁星在空中闪烁。

英语专八翻译及答案

1999年:In some societies people want children for what might be called familial reasons: to extend the family line or the family name, to propitiate the ancestors; to enable the proper functioning of religious rituals involving the family. Such reasons may seem thin in the modern, secularized society but they have been and are powerful indeed in other places. In addition, one class(一类) of family reasons shares a border(接壤、相近)with the following category, namely, having children in order to maintain or improve a marriage: to hold the husband or occupy(使…忙(有事干)the wife; to repair or rejuvenate the marriage; to increase the number of children on the assumption(设想、假设consumption 消费)that family happiness lies that way. The point is underlined(突出、显现)by its converse(反面、相反): in some societies the failure to bear children(养孩子)(or males) is a threat to the marriage and a ready cause for divorce. Beyond all that(除了这些)is the profound(深刻的、深远的)significance of children to the very institution(结构)of the family itself. To many people, husband and wife alone do not seem a proper family(完整的)—they need children to enrich the circle(丰富家庭生活、拓宽生活圈子), to validate(使…有效)its family character(家族的特征、风格), to gather(增加、集合)the redemptive(赎回的, 用于补偿的)influence of offspring. Children need the family, but the family seems also to need children, as the social institution(社会结构)uniquely(唯一)available, at least in principle, for (获得)security, comfort, assurance, and direction in a changing, often hostile world. To most people, such a home base, in the literal sense, needs more than one person for sustenance(生计)and in generational extension(家族的繁衍). 【参考答案】另外,有一类家庭原因与下列类别不无共同之处,那就是:生儿育女要么是为了维系现有婚姻,提高婚姻质量,要么是为了拴住丈夫,使妻子有所事事,要么是为了修复婚姻,给婚姻注入新的活力,亦或是出于多子多福的观念而多生儿女。当然,我们也可以从问题的反面得到昭示:在某些社会,无法生育子嗣(或不能生育男孩)对婚姻而言是最大的威胁,也可作为夫妻分手的现成理由。 后代对家庭这一体制本身所具有的深远意义远非如此。在许多人看来,丁克家庭算不上真正的家庭。夫妻需要孩子来拓宽自己的生活圈子,实现家庭在传宗接代中的作用,并从子孙后代身上获取某种回报。在这个变幻莫测,常常不尽友善的世界上,家庭作为社会的基本单位,至少可在原则上,以其独特方式为家人提供安全保障,抚慰家人受伤的心灵,为家人指出生活方向,因此,孩子需要家庭,但与此同时,家庭也需要孩子。

2000年英语专业八级考试--翻译部分参考译文 中国科技馆的诞生来之不易。与国际著名科技馆和其他博物馆相比,它先天有些不足,后天也常缺乏营养,但是它成长的步伐却是坚实而有力的。它在国际上已被公认为后起之秀。世界上第一代博物馆属于自然博物馆,它是通过化石、标本等向人们介绍地球和各种生物的演化历史。第二代属于工业技术博物馆,它所展示的是工业文明带来的各种阶段性结果。这两代博物馆虽然起到了传播科学知识的作用,但是,它们把参观者当成了被动的旁观者。 世界上第三代博物馆是充满全新理念的博物馆。在这里,观 众可以自己去动手操作,自己细心体察。这样,他们可以更贴近先进的科学技术,去探索科学技术的奥妙。中国科技馆正是这样的博物馆!它汲取了国际上一些著名博物馆的长处,设计制作了力学、光学、电学、热学、声学、生物学等展品,展示了科学的原理和先进的科技成果。 参考译文The first generation of museums are what might be called natural museums which, by means of fossils, specimens and other objects, introduced to people the evolutionary history of the Earth and various kinds of organisms. The second generation are those of industrial technologies which presented the fruits achieved by industrial civilization at different stages of industrialization. Despite the fact that those two generations of museums helped to disseminate / propagate / spread scientific knowledge, they nevertheless treated visitors merely as passive viewers. The third generation of museums in the world are those replete with / full of wholly novel concepts / notions / ideas. In those museums, visitors are allowed to operate the exhibits with their own hands, to observe and to experience carefully. By getting closer to the advanced science and technologies in this way, people can probe into their secret mysteries. The China Museum of Science and Technology is precisely one of such museums. It has incorporated some of the most fascinating features of those museums with international reputation. Having designed and created exhibits in mechanics, optics, electrical science, thermology, acoustics, and biology, those exhibits demonstrate scientific principles and present the most advanced scientific and technological achievements. 2001年英语专业八级考试--翻译部分参考译文 C-E 乔羽的歌大家都熟悉。但他另外两大爱好却鲜为人知,那就是钓鱼和喝酒。晚年的乔羽喜爱垂钓,他说,“有水有鱼的地方大都是有好环境的,好环境便会给人好心情。我认为最好的钓鱼场所不是舒适的、给你准备好饿鱼的垂钓园,而是那极其有吸引力的大自然野外天成的场所。”钓鱼是一项能够陶冶性情的运动,有益于身心健康。乔羽说:“钓鱼可分三个阶段:第一阶段是吃鱼;第二阶段是吃鱼和情趣兼而有之;第三阶段主要是钓趣,面对一池碧水,将忧心烦恼全都
