Part A: Spot Dictation

True

Was it envisioned for the euro to eventually become such a strong currency that it could compete with the dollar on a global level? Or was that a dream then and is it still a dream now?

True

I think it was an attainable dream, and it is becoming actually, in some ways, less attainable right now.

True

You may ask why?

True

Well, the dream to give credit where credit is due was not only advocated by some European officials but by some American economists, including our Institute’s director, Fred Bergsten, who was way out in the front with that. Richard Portes, who teaches at London Business School, also was way out in front with that. And they were very much against the tide of people like Martin Feldstein and others in London and the United States who were very skeptical towards the euro.

True

At face value, the euro area is the same size in GDP as the United States, roughly speaking. The euro area does have very large and deep financial markets, although the more you look in detail, there are still some things there that differentiate it from the United States. And the euro area has delivered price stability. They have a very low rate of inflation pretty consistently. So you put those three things together, on paper it looks like the euro should be at least a very clear second to the dollar in investor’s portfolios, in government reserve holdings, in how much you invoice trade like oil or planes or things like that.

True

But what our research finds in this book -- in particular in good chapters by Kristin Forbes and Linda Goldberg -- is the fact that if you look under the hood a bit, there is a huge shortfall between what you would expect just based on size and how much the euro is used. So there’s an awful lot of trade that’s still invoiced in dollars, not in euros, even between countries that are not dollar countries. There are huge amounts of financial flows that come to the United States, and the depth of European assets and financial flows is not commensurate with the size.

True

9月高口笔试真题及参考答案(2)

9月高口笔试真题及参考答案(2) SECTION 3: TRANSLATION TEST Directions: Translate of the following passage into Chinese and write your version in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET. The task of writing a history of our nation from Rome’s earliest days fills me, I confess, with some misgivings, and even were I confident in the value of my work, I should hesitate to say so. I am aware that for historians to make extravagant claims is, and always has been, all too common: every writer on history tends to look down his nose at his less cultivated predecessors, happily persuaded that he will better them in point of style, or bring new facts to light. Countless others have written on this theme and it may be that I shall pass unnoticed amongst them; if so, I must comfort myself with the greatness and splendor of my rivals, whose work will rob my own of recognition. My task, moreover, is an immensely laborious one. I shall have to go back more than 700 years, and trace my story from its small beginnings up to these recent times when its ramifications are so vast that any adequate treatment is hardly possible. I shall find antiquity a rewarding study, if only because, while I am absorbed in it, 1 shall be able to turn my eyes from the troubles which for so long have tormented the modern world, and to write without any of that over-anxious consideration which may well plague a writer on contemporary life, even if it does not lead him to conceal the truth.

雅思听力真题分类解析

雅思听力真题分类解析 雅思听力对于许多同学来说是比较难的一部分，相对来说题型也比较多。下面是小编给大家整理的雅思听力真题分类解析，大家可以作为了解。 雅思听力题型分类之选择题： 题量：10道题以上，容易出现在s2和s3部分;难度较高 题型特点： 1.审题压力大：有单选题和多选题，单词量多，阅读速度要求高 2.错误选项干扰大：对听句子的反应速度要求高 3.题目和正确选项会出现同义替换 题目可能已经给出句子的前半部分，考生需在选项中选择一个较好答案完成这个句子。题目也可能是一个完整的问题，考生需在选项中选择一个较好的答案作答。考生需要从三个可供选择的答案A、B、或C选择一个较好的答案或句子结尾。 选择题这种题型中考生都比较熟悉，所以可能对于考生来说算是相对比较容易备考及应的一种题型。但是要记住切忌大意，因为雅思考测的是学生的英语应用能力，所以考试内容的广度及深度都要远远高于内其他类英语考。在雅思听力中的选择题有区别于传统听力考的一些特征。雅思听力的选择题更加注重细节的考察，在section 3和section 4部分听力所涉及的场景内容更加专业。 雅思听力题型分类之填空题： 题量：20道题以上，容易出现在s1和s4部分，是听力中的要点题型，难度中等

出题特点： 1.单词拼写一般是低难度，比如：月份，星期、旅游景点，但是对于书写格式要求严格 2.题目会出现同义替换，需要积累一定同意替换词汇 3.所听即所得：答案会直接在听力中给出 4.先答案后题目：在个别填空题中会先出现答案，然后再出现题目中的信息 考生先阅读一组句子，这些句子对听力材料中部分或者全部内容进行了总结。考生需使用听力材料中的信息对每个句子的空格以简短的方式进行填空作答。题目的指示中会对字数要求进行限定，通常为不超过三个单词和/或一个数字。考生所用的单词应该是直接从听力材料中所听到的单词。如果考生填写了超过问题指示中所要求的字数，即使所填的内容中包含正确的答案，也会被扣分。缩写的单词不会被作为考的内容。带有连字符的单词按照一个单词计算。 雅思听力填空题有单句填空和摘要填空两种。这类题型因为给出一定的信息，所以对考生来说是相对来说比较简单的一类题。同内英语考相同，建议考生在听听力之前，留意句子关键词，并根据空格前后内容猜测并判断空格处要填入部分的词性或所担当的成分。切记不要超过三个单词和/或一个数字，要仔细阅读题目的指示再作答。 雅思听力题型分类之匹配题： 题量：4-8题左右;常出现在section2和section3中，难度较高 题型特点： 1.审题压力大：选项较多时对于阅读速度有要求 2.听题节奏快，干扰多，容易抓不到答案

纵观本次3.19中级口译考试听力部分，难度基本与05年9月持平，低于最难的05年3月试题。文章体裁虽呈多元化趋势，但即使略 有难度的金融类（如ATM取款机）、商务类（如工作午餐）、教育类（如继续教育）却都与生活息息相关，广大考生也可得心应手。 Spot-dictation几乎没有超出六级范围的词汇，因此对大多数考 生来说生词不是难点，相反一些其它的因素制约了我们得到满分的几率。比如由于在考场的紧张情绪而没有能够按照预定的计划在听写之 前进行抢读，导致不能进行有效预测，部分空格多填或少填单词而造 成失分。 针对Statement部分，相对以往，原句长度略微有所增加，但并 没有如托福考试那样出现中国考生不熟悉的本土化词组搭配；同时转 折题型多次出现，对于这样的考点，我们在培训过程中已有应对准备，考生通过反复操练已经形成了对“but”的条件反射；另外，因果题、 观点题也有明显引导词，只要听时注意句子的重心所在，题目也就能 迎刃而解。此外，本次考试第三题后半句“There goes my social life”也是此次听力照搬《中级听力教程（第二版）》（P.404，sample test 5， statement第二句）原文的情况了，如此一来，原先，面对与教材多处雷同的听力考试，很多同学会走只不听听力、只看 tape script的捷径，现今，这样的窍门已经不再适用，当下中级口译听力明显关注实际听力能力的考察，因此通过课堂上的大量练习、提 高实力还是重中之重。 对于Talks & Conversations的解题，并不存在有意设置的难点。细节题相当平实，有些与托福相似，可以利用特定场景的特定思路来

历年高口NTGF原文真题

2014年3月高级口译听力真题NTGF含解析 Note Taking and Gap Filling Good afternoon, class. I want to start my lecture by telling you a story. Once there was a young woman from Mexico named Consuela, who came to New York to learn English. She got a job at a factory owned by a Chinese. One day as Consuela came to work, her Chinese boss handed her a red envelope. Consuela looked inside and saw 20 dollars. She became very upset and threw the envelope back at her boss! Her boss was shocked. Well, he had given her the red envelope and the money because it was Chinese New Year. And on the Chinese New Year, it is traditional to give money to young, single people for good luck. However, from Consuela’s point of view, he was an older man giving her money in an envelope, which meant that he was asking her for sexual favors. Naturally, she refused to take the money. Now, what does this story show us? It shows that an action can have totally opposite meanings in different cultures. Every culture has its own rules for what is appropriate and what is not appropriate behavior. And to illustrate my point today, I’m going to give examples from four areas. First, the way people greet each other in different cultures. Second, the way they use names and titles. Third, the way people eat. And finally, the way they exchange gifts. OK, let’s start with greeting customs—First of all, I’m sure you know that in the United States and in most western countries, greetings often involve some sort of touching, such as a handshake, a hug, or a kiss if people know each other very well. On the other hand, people from most Asian countries don’t usually feel as comfortable touching in public. Although handshakes between business people are common, many Japanese prefer a bow, while people from Thailand, normally hold their hands together in a kind of prayer position. So imagine how embarrassing it would be if an American was invited to someone’s home in Japan or Thailand and she tried to hug the host! Now, another behavior that differs from culture to culture is the use of names. Have you noticed that Americans ar e quick to use people’s first names even if they have just met. For instance, visitors to the United States are always surprised to hear employees speak to their bosses using first names. In contrast, people in most other cultures are more formal and prefer to be addressed as Mr. Brown or Mr. Honda, for example. In addition, in some countries, such as Italy or Korea, people like you to include their title or

2015年3月上海高级口译考试真题(阅读部分)

上外口译培训网[https://www.sodocs.net/doc/e910106522.html,] 2015年3月上海高级口译考试真题(阅读部分) 第六部分汉译英（下半场） 2015年春季上海英语高级口译考试考生须知： 2015年春季高级口译考试在3月15日上午8:00开考进场，考试分为上下两个半场，中间10:00—10:10休息。如欲中途退场，须在听力考试结束后方可交卷离场，但上下半场考试结束后前10分钟内，不得交卷离场。英译汉试题是高级口译考试上半场最后一道题，汉译英试题是下半场最后一道题。 Parenthood should be affordable in this country, but the cost of raising a child from birth to adulthood is now a quarter of a million dollars and projected to double by the time today's toddlers reach their teens. 首段无需过分投入，只需看到两个关键词 affordable 和 cost 便知文章的话题所在。 Will having kids soon be out of reach economically for many American families? A recent report from the Center for American Progress found that middle-class families are feeling an unprecedented economic squeeze - caught between stagnating wages and the exploding cost of basics like housing, health care and children's education. Most families, it seems, are getting by on less and living closer to the financial edge to help their kids grow up healthy and get ahead. 第二段开篇以设问形式点出文章主体：为什么迫于经济压力，很多美国家庭无法生儿育女?答案的关键词在于“caught between stagnating wages and the exploding cost of basics” The most striking growth in costs to families has been in child care, where expenses have climbed about $200 annually in each of the last dozen years, with nearly tenfold growth since the 1960s. Child care, on average, consumes $1 of every $5 in a family's budget and exceeds the typical rent in every state. 本段以细节形式点出抚养儿女的成本增加之快。 In terms of their kids' health, families increasingly have to choose between treating their children's medical needs and paying household bills. Despite gains in the percentage of children with health insurance, per capita medical spending
