和平与发展是时代的主题

和平与发展是时代的主题。世界各国人民应携手合作，继续推进人类和平与发展的崇高事业。

和平的环境，是一个国家、一个地区以至全球发展的重要前提。没有和平，没有稳定的政治局面，就谈不

上经济发展。历史和现实都充分说明了这一点。

当今世界，国际局势总体上趋向缓和，但各种因素引发的冲突甚至局部战争此起彼伏，一些地区的紧张态

势依然存在，妨碍了有关国家和地区的经济发展，也对世界经济产生了不利影响。一切负责任的政治家和

政府，都应该遵守《联合国宪章》的宗旨和公认的国际关系基本准则，为实现普遍、持久、全面的和平而

努力，而不能违背各国人民的利益去人为地挑起紧张态势，甚至制造武力冲突。

在这个世界上仍旧有少数利益集团，总想通过在这样那样的地方制造紧张态势来谋利，这是违背大多数人

民的意志和时代潮流的。而且，只有不断推进和平与发展的事业，各国人民安居乐业，集中精力发展经济，创新科技，才能创造巨大的市场需求和促进经济繁荣。

我希望，在座各位，以及一切爱好和平的人们携起手来，为共同促进世界的持久和平和各国各地区的普遍

发展与繁荣而努力!

解析：

Peace and Development: Themes of the Times

Peace and development are the themes of the times. People across the world should join hands in advancing the lofty cause of peace and development of mankind.

A peaceful environment is indispensable for national, regional and even global development. Without peace or political stability, there would be no economic progress to speak of. This has been fully proved by both the past and the present.

In today"s world, the international situation is, on the whole, moving towards relaxation. However, conflicts and even local wars triggered by various factors have kept cropping up, and tension still remains in some areas. All this has impeded the economic development of the countries and regions concerned, and has also adversely affected the world economy. All responsible statesmen and governments must abide by the purposes of the UN Charter and the universally acknowledged norms governing international relations, and work for a universal, lasting and comprehensive peace. Nobody should be allowed to cause tension or armed conflicts against the interests of the people. There are still in this world a few interest groups which always want to seek gains by creating tension here and there. This is against the will of the majority of the people and against the trend of the times. An enormous market demand can be created and economic prosperity promoted only when continued efforts are made to advance the cause of peace and development to ensure that people around the world live and work in peace and contentment and focus on economic development and on scientific and technological innovation.

I hope that all of us here today will join hands with all other peace-loving people and work for lasting world peace and the common development and prosperity of all nations and regions.

解析：

China"s Opening-up to the Outside World

Opening-up to the outside world is a major decision China has made to advance its modernization drive; it is also China"s long-term basic State policy.

Over the past 30 years, a multi-directional opening-up pattern has, by and large, taken shape in China and its open economy has grown rapidly. China has engaged in extensive economic and technological exchanges and cooperation with other countries and regions. This has not only given a strong boost to China"s economic and social development, but also created favorable conditions for businesses of other countries and regions to seek business opportunities and conduct cooperation in China.

In today"s world, a country can hardly develop in isolation. China will unswervingly implement the opening-up policy, steadily expand its opening-up in the areas of commodity and service trade, create a level playing field for open and fair competition between Chinese and foreign enterprises, establish and improve a regime for foreign trade and economic cooperation which is consistent with international practice and which suits China"s own national conditions, and provide the overseas enterprises in China with increased and more stable access to the Chinese market so as to facilitate economic cooperation and trade between China and other countries.

China cannot develop independently without the rest of the world. Likewise, the world needs China if it is to attain prosperity. Following the trend of economic globalization, China is participating in international economic and technological cooperation on an ever- larger scale, in wider areas and at higher levels in an effort to push economic globalization towards the direction of common prosperity for all countries. Today, the mainstream of international trade is to share successes, with all as winners. China adheres to its opening-up strategy for mutual benefit and win-win outcomes, develops its economic and trade relations with other countries on the basis of equality, mutual benefit and reciprocity, and makes constant contributions to the sustained growth of global trade.

中华民族和中华文化

中华民族是由汉族和55个少数民族组成的大家庭。自远古以来，我国各族人民就劳动、生息、繁衍在祖国的土地上，共同为中华文明和建立统一的多民族国家贡献自己的才智。各民族之间建立了紧密的政治经济

文化联系，早在两千多年前就形成了幅员广阔的统一国家。悠久的中华文化，成为维系民族团结和国家统一的牢固纽带。

我们的先人历来把独立自主视为立国之本。中国作为人类文明发祥地之一，在几千年的历史进程中，文化传统始终没有中断。近代中国虽屡遭列强欺凌，国势衰败，但经过全民族的百年抗争，又以巨人的姿态重新站立起来。这充分说明，中国人独立自主的民族精神具有坚不可摧的力量。

今天，我们在探索自己的发展道路时，坚持从中国国情出发来建设中国特色社会主义，而不照搬别国的模式。在处理国际事务中，我们采取独立自主的立场和政策。中国人民珍惜同各国人民的友谊和合作，也珍惜自己经过长期奋斗而得来的独立自主权利。

自古以来中国人民就希望天下太平，同各国人民友好相处。我们坚持在和平共处五项原则基础上，同世界各国建立和发展友好合作关系。中国始终不渝走和平发展道路，致力于营造一个和平和谐的国际和周边环境，绝不谋求霸权。中国的和平发展基于本国国情和文化传统，基于自身根本利益和长远利益，基于世界发展大势和客观规律，是我们坚定不移的战略抉择。中国的发展与进步，不会对任何人构成威胁。中国始终是维护世界和平与地区稳定的坚定力量。

解析：

The Chinese Nation and Chinese Culture

The Chinese nation is a big family comprising the Han nationality and 55 ethnic minorities. Since time immemorial, people of all the nationalities have labored. 1ived and multiplied on our motherland, jointly contributing their wisdom to the shaping of Chinese civilization and the founding of a unified, multi-ethnic country. They have established closely-knit political, economic and cultural links with one another. As early as two thousand years ago China was already a unified country with vast territory. The deep- rooted Chinese culture has served as a strong bond for ethnic solidarity and national unity.

Our ancestors always regarded independence and self-reliance as the foundation of our nation. As one of the cradles of human civilization. China has maintained its cultural tradition without interruption for thousands of years in history. In modern times, China was subjected to repeated bullying and humiliation by imperialist powers, and the national strength was on the wane. However, after struggles waged by the entire Chinese nation for a hundred years, China has once again stood up as a giant. This fully shows that the national spirit of the Chinese people to maintain independence is indomitable.

Today, in exploring a road suited to our development, we will proceed from the actual conditions of China to build socialism with Chinese characteristics rather than indiscriminately copy other countries" models. In handling international affairs, we adopt positions and policies independently and on our own initiative. We Chinese people value our friendship and cooperation with people of various countries, and we also cherish our right to independence we have won through protracted struggle.

Since ancient times the Chinese people have always aspired for a peaceful world where people of all countries live together in friendship. We will establish and develop friendly relations and cooperation with all countries in the world on the basis of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence. China will unswervingly follow the road of peaceful development. I t will remain dedicated to cultivating a peaceful and harmonious international and neighboring environment, and it will never seek hegemony. Going for peaceful development is a firm strategic decision China has made in light of its national conditions and cultural tradition, its fundamental and long-term interests as well as the prevailing trend and objective law of world development. China"s growth

and progress will not pose a threat to anyone. China is always a staunch force for world peace and regional stability.

香港特别行政区

香港特别行政区包括香港岛、九龙和新界，总面积1092平方公里。香港自古以来就是中国的领土，1840

年鸦片战争以后被英国占领。根据1984年12月19日中英签署的关于香港问题的联合声明，两国政府于1997年7月1日举行了香港政权交接仪式，宣告中国对香港恢复行使主权，从而实现了长期以来中国人民收回香港的共同愿望。与此同时，中华人民共和国香港特别行政区正式成立，《香港特别行政区基本法》也开始实施。

中国政府在香港实行“一国两制”、“港人治港”、“高度自治”的基本方针。“一国两制”就是在中国统一的国家内，内地实行社会主义制度，香港保持原有的资本主义制度和生活方式，50年不变；“港人治港”就是由香港人自主管理香港，中央不派官员到特区政府任职；“高度自治”就是除外交、国防事务由中央政府管理外，香港特别行政区享有充分自主地管理本地区事务的权力，包括行政管理权、立法权、独立的司法权和终审权。

在回归祖国后的17年里，香港犹如一艘高速巨轮勇往直前，顺利地闯过了亚洲金融危机、非典、禽流感的惊涛骇浪。特区政府有效地处理了一系列对香港政治、经济、社会有重大影响的事件和问题，维护了香港的稳定与繁荣。

今天，香港依然是一座魅力四射、充满活力的现代都市，其作为国际上一个金融、贸易、航运中心的地位得到了进一步的加强，被誉为全球“透明度最高、治理得最好、政府干预最少”的范例。我们相信，有伟大祖国作为坚强后盾，香港的未来一定更加美好!

The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region

The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region(HKSAR) consists of Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and the New Territories, covering a total area of 1,092 square kilometers. Hong Kong has been Chinese territory since ancient times. It was occupied by Britain after the opium War of 1840. In accordance with the Joint Declaration on the Question of Hong Kong signed by China and the United Kingdom on December 19, 1984, the two governments held a hand-over ceremony on July 1, 1997, announcing the restoration of China"s sovereignty over Hong Kong. Thus the long-cherished common wish of the Chinese people to recover Hong Kong was fulfilled. Meanwhile, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People"s Republic of China was formally established and the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region came into effect.

The Chinese government carries out the basic policies of "one country, two systems," "administration of Hong Kong by the Hong Kong people" and "a high degree of autonomy" in Hong Kong. "One country, two systems" refers to the fact that in China, a unified country, the mainland practices the socialist system, and Hong Kong"s existing capitalist system and way of life will remain unchanged for 50 years. "Administration of Hong Kong by the Hong Kong people" means that the HKSAR is administered by the Hong Kong people on their own, and the central authorities will not send officials to the HKSAR to fill local official posts. "A high degree of autonomy" means that apart from foreign and national defense affairs, which must be administered by the Central Government, the HKSAR shall fully enjoy the power of decision over matters within its autonomous jurisdiction, including executive, legislative, independent judicial and final adjudication powers.

Over the 17 years since its return to our motherland, Hong Kong has been surging forward like

a high-powered ship, smoothly cutting through the terrifying waves of the Asian financial crisis and the SARS and the avian flu pandemic. The HKSAR government has effectively handled a series of events and matters bearing on Hong Kong"s political. economic and social environment, thus maintaining the stability and prosperity of Hong Kong.

Today, Hong Kong remains an enchanting modern metropolis full of vitality, and its position as an international center for finance, trade, and shipping has been strengthened further. It is praised as a global model with the highest transparency, the best administration, and the least government intervention. We believe that with the staunch support of the great motherland, Hong Kong will certainly have an even brighter future.

【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

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.

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

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。

The culture of any society is usually thought to be of two kinds: material and nonmaterial. Material culture includes the man-made phenomena which have physical properties such as height, breadth, and weight. A boat, a machine, a house-all these objects are part of the material culture. The nonmaterial culture is that portion of the environment which surrounds man and which has an impact on his behavior but which lacks these material properties: values, beliefs, traditions, and all the other habits and ideas invented and acquired by man as a member of society. Contemporary sociological theory tends to assign primary importance to the nonmaterial culture in choosing problems for study.
