口译考前临时抱佛脚——听力篇

口译考前临时抱佛脚——听力篇



第一篇:口译考前临时抱佛脚——听力篇

各位同学大家好!我是上海新东方的李龙帅老师。

这次主要跟大家聊一聊平常如何复习与准备高级口译考试的听力部分。

09年的考试出现了很多社会热点,比如经济危机、失业就业等等。因此我们可以看出听力考试已经不仅仅

是听力本身,也就是说各位考生,我们要避免一个误区:听得越多不一定考得越好。学习听力正确的方法

应该是听说齐头并进。

当然听力考试还要涉及到词汇量的问题;另外就是要熟悉高级口译考试听力的题型,不同的题型有不同的

解题方法。比如说,听写题要求你熟悉每个单词的声音。在高口快速的朗读过程中记下单词。快速朗读的

时候也会出现“音变”现象,一共6种:连读、失音、重读、弱读、同化和浊化。最常考的就是连读和失

音。比如a night out, travel agency等等。所以我们对声音的把握要下功夫。

除了对声音把握,还有一个考点就是速记能力。考试一共20个空格,每个空格大致在4个单词左右。在考

试过程中,我们自然不可能全部一一写完,这就要求我们用到一些速记的方法。最常用的就是“去元音法

”,或者叫“音节法”。任何一个单词只取三到四个辅音就好了。比如market写成mkt;message写成

msg;manage写成mng;recognize写成rcg;confidence写成cfd。

Listening Comprehension这个题型比较杂。其中长对话,考察的是考生对仿真对话的辨别。平常说话的

特点是犹豫、迟疑、对错误订正等等。比如英语中的well, actually, anyway等等。会把整句话搞得支离

破碎。这个练习建议大家去看看美剧。看得时候不要盯着字母,也要练习自己的听力。第一遍看不要开字

母;第二遍开中文字幕;第三遍开英文字幕。最后再练习自己的发音,使之更接近英语母语的发音。

对于长对话的考试技巧而言,要争取在对话开始的前三个回合里就听出Topic,主题;其次听出两人的身份

。这都是考点。另外对话中出现的关键信息词也要注意,比如最高级,mostworst等等;还有,态度题也

是高口中常出的考点。比如反语啦、俏皮话等等,大家要注意。从技巧上来看就是要注意说话人的语音语

调,从这里也可以判断这个人的态度。

新闻也是Listening Comprehension中常考的难点。这个大家一定要关注时事,比如奥巴马当选、失业就

业、次贷危机等等。建议大家多听新闻,对新闻单词做一点补充。那么从应试角度看,大家在最近几天练

习的时候一定要争取把新闻中的导语,leading sentence听懂!考试中常常从这个点出题,尤其是新闻导

语中的动词短语。

讲座也是一类题型,这个部分的难点是重点信息比较难找。大家在听的时候要注意转折、让步、因果等词

汇,从这些词中判断重点信息所在。

接下来,在高级口译考试的下半场,有note taking 和 gap filling的题型。这样的题型一般是放5到7分

钟的讲座,需要考生把讲座中的主题、纲要、列举等信息记下来。这类题型在最后这个练习的阶段,大家

应该努力做到在一开头就听出讲座的Topic。注意Today I'm gonna talk about...Today I will focus

on...especially等等路标词、信号词。这些都指示着主题所在;另外一个技巧就是在记笔记时切忌把单

词写全。这里就要求你运用一些单词缩写的方法,或者把长单词写成汉字,或者用符号表示,总之快速的

记下信息,不要浪费时间。

最后,就是考试中最难的听译题。他的考点特别多,除了听、还要记、还要翻译。在最后这个冲刺阶段、练习这种题型要精做、精练。把以前的真题拿出来记笔记,每一段至少要记5遍以上、做20篇左右,你就

能找到做笔记的最佳节奏,考试就能用上。

至于翻译部分,做到直译即可。可是很多考生会出现漏听、漏译的情况。大家注意:即便是你在考试的时

候没有听全,也要学会从上下文中估计出大概的意思。这一点考察考生的反应和应变能力。因为评分标准

是踩点给分的,所以大家在考试时不要轻易放弃,即便听到只字片语,也要想办法把它揉成一个完整的句

子。

题型我们就讲到这里,另外有一本教材大家要去看:《中高级口译教程 第三版》。因为这是官方的一个

教材,考试中常常出到里面的高频词汇。另外听力的那本“小绿书”中间的词汇、文化知识、重要题目等

等,考试也常常出到。我们新东方也有出一本小绿书的复习指导《绿经》,这是一本免费的电子书,大家

只要到沪江网、邱政政老师的博客(邱邱博客 点击进入>>)里,就可以下载了。

最后祝大家考试成功!谢谢大家!

前言:教师介绍与课程风格

一、教师介绍与课程介绍

(一)、是语音速成班、高级听力预备班、高级口译预备班的结合 口语于听力相结合,听力的好坏取决于口语 举几个例子,考察一下听力:

1、ice or water

lose aim

same area

your own

2、高级口语例子:ill at ease

crude oil

sleep and eat

3、段子:Boys of American

A helicopter carrying 8 people was reported missing.After it unloaded a cargo of foods, some crude oil and other provisions for workers digging a major tunnel for a water project for Manila, an official said yesterday.A helicopter carrying eight people was reported

老师读两遍,第一遍语速180词/分,第二遍130词/分(中口考试难度)

(二)、要听懂各个国家的发音,中级口译分为美式发音和英式发音两种,各占50%

问题: Who is presenter;Who is keynote speaker.Good morning, it is a unique honor to act as a whole city, I also understand it is an honor which comes with a great responsibility, and which requires the highest levels of cooperation with the IOC.My promise to you is that we will be your very best partners all of us who made guarantees to you are ready to deliver them now, on security, on finance, on every single undertaking we have given.If you award the game to us, I pledge to you personally, we will continue to give the highest levels of support.My entire government and the main opposition parties, too, are united behind this bid.It has total political support, I can't think of a better place than London to hold an event that unites the world.London will inspire the young people around the world and ensure the Olympic Game will remain the dream for future generation.有关伦敦申奥的短文,以美式和英式发音各读一遍,注意区别。推荐电影:《Forest Gump》美式发音,串讲美国历史,有助于考试

《Notting hill》美式、英式结合第一章

第二章

听力能力提高的4个有效途径

一、听力提高要有恒,有序,有量

1、有恒:每天半小时听力(精听)

2、有序:不要超前

3、有量:中口要做到100小时的精听,同传要达到1000小时

二、打通的四关:语音,词汇,文化常识,语法

1、语音:(1)辨别口音

(2)熟悉音变现象:吞读、连读、缩读(3)了解美语音标,注意语音、语调、节奏 Eg:表扬别人

You look great today.You did a good job.You are looking shark today.You’ve got a good sense of humor.You look like million dollars.incredible

awful awesome You have a good taste.You always know the right thing to say.2、词汇

(1)中口词汇为7000,趋势:杂,多涉及政治、经济、英国小城镇 Eg:bar 律师团

moonlight 第二职业

(2)技巧:词汇关推荐书籍:〈英语口译资格考试分类词汇精编〉

〈中级口译笔试备考精要〉

联想记忆法(词根词缀法、谐音记忆法)

如:delinquency(失职);pedophilia(恋童癖)aftermath(灾难的后果)upheaval(剧变)

3、文化常识

(1)出卷人为上外英语系教授,研究英美两国历史

考点多出于英国教育、语言与教育、美国总统就职演说、美国历史、欧洲经济情况 Eg:Queen’s bench 英国高等法院 Queen’s English 标准英语 Big Apple

纽约

It’s a quite Babylon project.不可能完成的任务

4、语法;语法复查,弥补听力问题

听力中的误区、小问题需要通过语法来弥补 第三章

缩写与Spot Dictation

一、缩写练习:

第一段缩写训练答案:

Many pl’s favorite hob is sports.Ty spend +thr spr tm play(g)team game like footb/baseb,Ty=they

thr= their

thm=them

+=much ++/+2=more +3=most -=little

-2=less

-3=least the most beautiful girl = +3 beautiful girl the highest mountain = +3 high-=of spr =spare(g)=ing game=gm footb= football baseb =baseball /=or games for(4)2/4 pl, 4=for 2/4=2 or 4

like tennis, or golf.Sm pl like 2 prac.c spt like run(g)/swim(g).Sm=some Pl=people 2=to prac= practice.=a/an inp= inpidual run(g)=running swim(g).= swimming /=or

Pl usually prac.Spt 4 at least 3 reason.Pl= people prac= practice.=a spt= sport

1st, ty enjoy it & 2st, ty feel.Nd 2 kp fit __ tt ty feel +2 after ty had sm exer.1st= First, ty= they & = and.Nd= need kp= keep _=in-=of tt=that b+2= better m+2=more sm=some exer=exercise 注意:Spot Dictation中少用符号

第一段缩写训练原文

Many people’s favorite hobby is sports.They spend much of their spare time playing team games like football or baseball, games for two or four people, like tennis, or golf.Some people like to practice an inpidual sport like running or swimming.People usually practice a sport for at least three reasons.First, they enjoy it and second, they feel a need to keep fit in that they feel better after they had some exercise.二、缩写4种方法:

1、拿掉所有元音 Eg.market--------mkt

standard------std

message------msg

receive-------rcv

2、保留开头几个字母 Eg.Information-----info

Insurance------Ins

Exchange-----exch

Inpidual-----inp The STDn – MKT I RCV.MSG frm th inp pl I want to exch info with u

3、保留开头和结尾 Eg.Week-----wk

Need-----nd

Meet------mt

Room-----rm

4、根据发音 Eg.Are-------r

Though---tho

Through---thru

三、缩写中的常用缩略词

Good----gd

important-----imp Include---incd

market-----mkt Situation----sitn

regular-----regl life=lf Reference----ref

necessary---ncry Apartment----apt

apt 右上方加m m表示ment后缀 according----acdg

g=ing

Advertisement----ad

advice----adv

amount —AMT conform----cfm Condition----cond

Under no condition

by no means department-----dept Explain----expln

impossible----imps Model---mdl

observe----obs Ordinary----ord

accept----acpt Balance----bal

cancel----cncl Exchange----exch

inpidual----inp Position----posn

product----prod Representative---rep

repeat----rpt Please----pls

possible-----poss Receive----rcv

练习部分

this is a good important market here is the necessary advice I want I will accept the position as a manager 频率高的词用缩写

考试时尽量用学过的缩写,不要用太多

四、地名简写:

Korea : K

Sweden : SD

Switzerland: SW Australia: AA

Israel : IS

Italy : IT Spain: SP 通常是提取国家单词的首字母

五、缩写中较长单词的处理:

-ism---------m

eg.Socialism 社会主义

S(m)

local-tion---------n

eg.Standardization 原始化

std(n)凡是从原始动词延伸出来的各种形容词、名字、副词,只需写出动词,各种形式从缩写的右上方进行添加处理。

-ing----------g

eg.Marketing

mkt(g)-ment-------mt

eg.Amendment

amend(mt)-ble---------bl

注:遇到以able或ible为后缀的词,可以提取bl作为信息点写在这个词的右上方

eg.Available

av(bl)-ful---------fl

eg.Meaningful

mn(fl)

复习一下:

缩写的四种方法是:

1、拿掉原因保留

2、保留开头几个字母

3、保留开头和结尾

4、根据发音缩写

地名和较长单词的缩写方法

六、本单元测试

But spt is not just 4 participants.Its 4 spect(o)too.M – pl all over the world spend hs every wk watch(g)spt event on tv, / at stadiums.Pl enjoy be(g)fans/supp(o)– 1 team & many prof.are now as pop & fame as the +3 great Hollywd movie star.逐句分析:

But spt is not just 4 participants.But=向上的箭头 或自己创造 spt=sport 4=for

注:遇到动词延伸的人称,可以写出动词后在右上角划一个圆圈 eg:

work(0)=worker teach(0)=teacher 核心词compete及延伸词 compete=comp comp(o)= competitor comp(v)=competitive 注:缩写词右上方加v表示那些以ive结尾的形容词 comp(n)=competition comp(g)=competing

Its 4 spect(o)too.spect(o)= spectator

M – pl all over the world spend hs every wk watch(g)spt event on tv, / at stadiums.M= millions T=thousand H= hundred 另一种用符号表示的方式

右上方加1个“′”=thousand 右上方加2个“′”=millions 右上方加3个“′”= trillion

–=of pl= people hs= hours wk= week watch(g)= watching spt= sport /= or

Pl enjoy be(g)fans/supp(o)– 1 team & many prof.are now as pop & fame as the +3 great Hollywd movie star。Pl = People be(g)= being fans/ = “fans” or supporter =supp(o)–= of 1= one team & many= team and many prof.= professionals pop= popular fame= famous &=and the +3 great= the greatest

原文展示:

But sport is not just for participants.Its for spectators too.Millions of people all over the world spend hours every week watching sports events on television, or at stadiums.People enjoy being “fans” or “supporters” of one team and many professionals are now as popular and famous as the greatest Hollywood movie stars.七、第三单元学习方法综述

注意:每天做30分钟精听,用缩写的方式记忆听到的内容。

第四单元 听力中的音变现象和美语发音学习

一、单元综述:

本单元重点是张大嘴巴跟老师一起读,感受美语。练习我们的脸部肌肉,并体会美语发音的方式和技巧。

二、美语发音: 1、4个双元音

美语音标最大的区别在于其中的元音,过去学过的元音是单元音,但美语中所学的是双元音 1){e}-{ei} age, game, day

sentence: More haste, less speed.欲速则不达 第一步把每个音发准 第二步加上声调

练习: It’s pay day today 今天是发工资的日子

2){o}-{ou}结尾停在u boat, note, so 美语发音的特点:尽量在口腔的后部把音发出来。sentence: I hope so.练习:He posed for a group of photo with his old fellows.注:美语中常常对a和the进行变音,目的是为了强调 eg:

This is the best opportunity we ever have to enter the market.3){a}-{ai} bike, mine, flight this bike of mine sentence: All right.注:all不要卷舌

练习:Out of sight, out of mind 眼不见,心不烦

4)how out, now about sentence: Let’ s get out of here.It’s kind of tough.It’s kind of torture to read mathematics everyday.练习: This is out-and-out power politics.这是彻头彻尾的强权政治2、2个后元音 1){半圆两点}

发音技巧:尽量往最里吞这个音

not, bottle, hot, job, hospital sentence: It’s a promise.练习:little red lorry 红色小卡车

2){u}

good ,book, should sentence: She’s looking at a good book.更多例子: new

student

attitude due I am for this position.3、辅音t的发音

writer, letter, better, city,发音变化一:浊化

浊化原则1:t处在非重读音节要浊化 如:writer, letter, better, city,浊化原则2:t处在重读音节不能浊化

如:Italian, attack, atomic, Latino, photographer

浊化对比:

Italy, attic(阁楼)

atom(原子), Latin, photograph

发音变化二:t在词组中的发音变化: 练习:pick it up I got it.right away 发音变化三:t发音的特殊情况: 当t发的很快,就会变成n的音 internet interview interesting representative

发音变化四:失去爆破 right now, just now

发音变化五:t的音从鼻子里出来(美音,英音都有的一种特殊情况)Britain, mountain, fountain4、r的发音

1)r在单词中的发音

练习: Rolly rolled a round roll around the road.spare, burglar, dirty, porch, more

2)r带动后面元音的发音 world girl

pearl The girls are the pearls in the world.原则:只有字母r存在才能卷舌 经常发错的音:China, America, idea

三、美语中的变音现象

1、连读

1)相同辅音的连读

bad dog

注意:不可以把音节给吞掉,只是这个音节不发音

like candy

ripe pear some money

The report turned out to be totally false.这份报告完全是一派胡言。

2)辅音+元音

It’s easy.Where’s our car? Come on in.What time is it now?

Figure it out.for example

中高级口译中常常出现的连读词汇: of all ages crude oil a couple of travel agency

your own our own set in motion

3)元音+元音 be on time

注:元音i后面再跟一个元音,两个元音间要加入一个“耶”的音 stay up

flow out 注:元音o后面再跟一个元音,两个元音间要加入一个“我”的音 grow up

She works day in and day out.连读小结: 相同辅音的连读 辅音+元音的连读 元音+元音的连读

2、失爆(吞读)

两个爆破音连接在一起时出现失爆(吞读)

什么是爆破音:p, b, k, g, t, d

六个爆破音任何一个后面紧接着另一个爆破音或摩擦音或鼻音时,前一个爆破音将失去爆破。lap top great deal good time the Red Cross a fast train a big change currently probably say it proudly and loudly at last

3、缩读

and---n: Do you know Nancy and David? Tom and Jerry are you---ya: Ya going to the movie tonight? What ya doing here? 缩读的原则:

1、绝对不会是重点音节,不可以重读

2、只能出现在非正式场合

do you----dy’a : how dy’a feel now? How dy’a like the movie? did you---dja: how dja make it? because—cause: I don’t like her cause she’s mean could have—could’a : you could’a hurt yourself.(should ,would same)could not have---couldn’a He couldn’a done that.can---cn: I can be there in an hour.I can do a lot of things that other people can not do it.give me : Gimme that!going to---gonna.Want to---Wanna got to---gotta: I gotta see him right now.he---e : Who’s he?

her---er: This is her husband him---im: Tell him the story.of---o:

He’s sort of a strange.---He’s sorta strange.It ‘s kind of a tough.---It’s kinda tough.probably---prob’ly: He’ll prob’ly come for dinner.currently---curren’ly sure----sher.Sher, I want some bread.what if----wud if : What if we went to the movie?(what if 句型要掌握)what are you----wacha doin now?

you----ya: Catch ya later.See you later.四、单元检测

The single market has already had an enormous impact.Here in Spain there have been a great number of cross-border mergers and acquisitions where French and German companies have seen opportunities to enter a growing market.And as the barriers have been removed this has become more and more possible.As far as specific industries have been concerned, well, food and drink, for example, is an industry which you would think was very culturally bound, but we have seen over the last ten years how much eating and drinking habits have changed, and this is very much a function of a single market.French companies have been particularly aggressive in this area.五步分析法:

1、划出段落中的双元音、后元音

2、找出这段话中的吞读和连读

3、划好本段话中的停顿

4、标注好每段话的升降调

5、熟读段落

第五章

第三篇:口译听力

一、关于口译的“听”

听英文:

(1)要具备扎实的语音知识和发音能力,只有这样才能使音和意挂钩起来,不然的话,一定会张冠李戴。比如,Tibet 听成tobacco, president Lincoln 听成 president Clinton.(2)学会抓住一句话或者一个语段的中心意思,而不要抓住每一个词的个别意思,要善于将前后的意群联系起来理解。例如: Natural changes in the climate are probably to blame for the unusual weather conditions in many parts of the world.(3)要学会从第一句来预测整段的思路和意向,因为文章的首句通常是topic sentence.其后的几句大多是从原因,结果,条件,时间,空间等方进行说明或阐述的。

例:I should also like to take this opportunity to thank the countless volunteers from so many nations, who rushed to Japan to help with the relief and reconstruction efforts after the earthquake in 1995.#建议大家平时在联系听力的时候,多听一些英文长句子,长度可以逐渐加长。#

听中文:

强制记忆,尤其是短时记忆一些不熟悉的,没有规律的文字。

二、关于口译的“记” 两个原则:

1.大脑记忆为主,笔记为辅。2.数字,时间,人名,地名一定要记下来。例1

1.Thank you, Mr.deputy mayor, for your warm remarks.Now I should like to offer a few of my own on behalf of the Johnson Corporation.// 谢副市热话I say 代Johnson cor.2.I want to assure you that we will do our best to develop a long term cooperation with the banks, corporations and enterprises in Shanghai.// I 保 we 尽力↗长合→bank.Cor.Ent.In SH

3.The Johnson Corporation is a capital-based lending corporation.We mainly offer loans to developing countries and have business relations with many countries in the world.// Johns.Cor $ 基,we 贷→发中□&bus tie □ 世

4.This year, we will lower borrowing rates and improve efficiency in order to further enhance business relations with developing countries, especially with our partners in shanghai.// 今年,we ↓借 利↑效→发中 bus tie , esp.伙 in SH

例2 1.中华人民共和国和美利坚合众国是两个伟大的国家,但两国的文化,政治传统和经济制度相距甚远。// 中美=2 大□,但cul &pol, trad&eco sys: very ≠

2.尽管如此,两国也还存在很多共同利益,这些利益可以通过改善关系得以实现。

But, 2 □ 有 多 com inter , inte 实, by 改tie

#笔记很重要,在考前也要戴上耳机,在草稿纸上练习笔记。#

三、口译的基本方法

一、顺译法

顾名思义,这种方法是指按所听到的原句的顺序,把整个句子分割成若干个意义单位或信息单位逐一译出,再用增补,删减等手段把这些单位自然衔接,形成完整的意思。顺译法能够减轻记忆负担,便于及时处理信息,因而是口译者及考生的首选良策。

例1 It is indeed a pleasure [1]/to stand before the Assembly [2]/ and extend to you, Sir, [3]/in the name of my country,[4]/my most sincere congratulations[5]/ on your election [6]/as president of the present session of the General Assembly [7]./ 参考译文: 的确非常愉快[1],能够站在大会前面[2],向阁下先生转达[3],以我国家的名义转达[4],我最真诚的祝贺[5],祝贺您当选本届联合国大会的主席[6]。

例2 “十五”期间[1]/,上海将形成[2]/一批支柱和优势企业[3]/,形成一批拳头产品[4]/形成一个创新开发机制[5]/,形成一支优秀企业家队伍[6]。参考译文:

During the period of the Tenth Five-Year Plan [1], Shanghai will set up[2] a number of backbone and flagship enterprises[3], develop a series of knockout products[4], create a mechanism for innovation and development[5], and bring us a troop of outstanding entrepreneurs[6].二 重组法:

如果两种语言的表达模式不一致,运用顺译法便会显得牵强别扭,这时则宜采用重组法。具体说来,就是抓住原语中的信息点,根据目标语的思维方式和表达习惯重新组织和安排信息,译出原语真正要体现的内容和情感。例1 Nothing inspired us more [1] as we watched the breathtaking performance of the gymnasts [2]/ than the final jump of Kelly [3]/ that put the American girls on the champion’s stand [4].参考译文:

当我们观看体操运动员惊心动魄的表演时[2]/,最鼓舞我们的莫过于凯利的最后一跳[1]+[3]/,因为这一跳使得美国女孩们登上了冠军的领奖台[4]/。

例2 在美丽的金秋时节[1]/,我很高兴[2]/,能在古老又充满现代活力的[3]/的古都西安[4]/,迎来[5]/参加“202_中国西部论坛”的[6]/各位嘉宾[7]。/ 参考译文:

In this beautiful golden fall [1], I am very happy [2] to welcome [5] the distinguished guests [7] to China West Forum 202_ [6] in the ancient capital Xi’an [4], an age-old and mysterious city full of dynamism of the modern era [3].练习:

1.十月的上海,阳光明媚,秋高气爽,来自35个国家和地区的1300多名比赛选手参加了在沪举行的本世纪最后一届世界中学生运动会。

In October, the weather in Shanghai is sunny and refreshing.More than 1,300 players from 35 countries and regions attended the World High School Students Sports Meeting in Shanghai, which is the last games of this kind of this century.2.世界各国的青少年在沪逗留时间虽然短暂,但上海的风貌和中国的传统文化仍然给他们留下了深刻的印象。

Although these young people from various parts of the World spent a short time in Shanghai, they were still deeply impressed by the outlook of Shanghai and by the traditional Chinese culture.3.博大精深的中国传统文化令这些年轻的外国朋友感受到了神秘和新奇。The profound traditional Chinese culture struck these foreign youngsters as mysterious and novel.4.从此以后,他们不会忘记,有这样一个民族生活在世界的东方。

From then on, they would never forget that there lives such a people in the east of the world.四、口译考试内容会涉及的方面:

三 旅游(城市或者景点,还有旅游产业的介绍)

例:Many of its world-renowned attractions are specific, such as the Great Barrier Reef, Ayer‟s Rock, Kakadu National Park and Sydney Opera House.澳大利亚有许多举世闻名,景观独特的旅游胜地,如大堡礁,阿叶尔斯石柱山,咔喀杜国家公园和悉尼歌剧院。

(2)汉译英,则是介绍国内的城市或者景点。难在中文太过文学,措手不及。例:上海系江南名城,远东巨埠,内联九州,外通四海,物华天宝,人杰地灵。Shanghai is a famous city in the south of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River and a big port in the Far East.Linked with all the places in China and major ports throughout the world, this metropolis is known as a land of attractive resources and magic power and a birthplace of creative minds and gifted talents.例6

York is the capital of Yorkshire and was once known as England‟s “second city”.It has a long history dating back to Roman times.Indeed many of the streets and roads bear Roman names.// 约克是约克郡的首府,曾经一度被誉为英格兰的“第二大城市。”约克市历史悠久,可以追溯到罗马时代。的确,很多的街道和马路用的都是罗马的名字。

York is a major tourist city for many reasons.The city boasts one of the most famous cathedrals in the world.It has a number of interesting museums and the architecture within the city covers different periods of history.// 约克成为旅游重镇有很多原因。该市拥有世界上最为著名的教堂之一。它有很多有趣的博物馆。另外,成立的建筑风格反映了不同历史时期的风格。

四 环境保护 例10

Environmental pollution is a term that refers to all the ways by which man pollutes his surroundings.// 环境污染是指人们用各种方式污染周围环境的一个术语。

Man dirties the air with gases and smoke, poisons the water with chemicals and other substances, and damages the soil with too many fertilizers and pesticides.// 人们通过气体和烟雾来污染空气,用化学物质以及其他物质污染水源,还用大量的化肥和杀虫剂破化土壤。

Man also pollutes his surroundings in various ways.For example, people ruin natural beauty by scattering junk and litter on the land and in the water.They operate machines and motor vehicles that fill the air with disturbing noise.// 人们还通过其他方式污染着他们的环境。例如,总有人在地面上和水里扔垃圾,破害自然美。人们使用的一些机器和交通工具噪音很大。

Nearly everyone causes pollution in some way.Environmental pollution is one of the most serious problems facing mankind today, and badly polluted air can cause illness, and even death.// 几乎每个人都在某种程度上对周围的环境造成了污染。环境污染是当今人们所面对的一个非常严重的问题。被严重污染的空气会引起疾病甚至死亡。

例11 1992年联合国地球峰会以来,越来越多的人和政府接受了“可持续发展”的观念。// Since United Nations Earth Summit in 1992, more and more people and governments have adopted the idea of “sustainable development”.这一观念认为,现今的经济发展不能以子孙后代的资源和选择作为代价,规划和发展不仅仅要确保经济增长,还要保证社会进步和环境健康,这就是说一些经济行为必须受到制约。// This is the idea that today‟s economic growth should not be at the risk of the resources and options for future generations.Planning and development need to ensure not only economic growth, but also social advancement and environmental health, and this means that some economic behaviors must be restricted or controlled.中国面临着很多严峻的环境问题:空气污染,水污染,沙漠化,过渡捕捞,对自然栖息地的破坏,酸雨,对野生动植物的过渡消费等等。所有这一切的背后都是经济增长和环境保护之间的矛盾。// There are many serious environmental problems in China: air pollution, water pollution, desertification, overfishing, destruction of natural habitats, acid rain, over-consumption of wild animals and plants, etc.Behind them all, is the contradiction between economic growth and environmental protection.将可持续发展原则逐步融入到政府规划,资源管理和经济政策中去,这是中国解决环境问题所能够采取的最重要的一步。// Instilling principles of sustainable development into governmental planning, resources management and economic policy is the most important step China could take to solve its environmental problems.五 教育(学校的介绍,中国教育状况的介绍)例12:

松江大学城作为本市最大的大学社区,于昨日正式启用,迎接来自上海外国语大学,上海外贸学院及立信会计学院三所高校的5500名新生。// Songjiang College Town, which is the largest college community in Shanghai, was officially opened yesterday.It welcomed 5,500 new students from three institutions of higher learning, namely, Shanghai International Studies University, Shanghai Foreign Trade Institute and Lixin Accounting College.该大学城占地306公顷,其中240公顷用于教室等各类教学设施,其他用于寝室,食堂和商店。整座大学城的建成耗资25亿人民币。// The College Town covers an area of 306 hectares, among which 240 hectares are used for various kinds of teaching facilities and classrooms and the rest are for dormitories, canteens and shops.The total cost of building the whole college town will be 2.5 billion yuan.松江大学城的建立,旨在使大学生得到全面,健康的发展,即每个学生都得在德,智,体各个方面有所提高。// The founding of Songjiang College Town is to enable the college students to have an all-round and healthy development.That is to say, every student is given the chance to improve himself morally, intellectually and physically.按计划,今年年底松江大学城将完成一批大型体育综合型设施——包括运动场和体育馆。据市教育部门的官员说,这些设施能承担国际性的比赛。// According to the schedule/It is scheduled that by the end of this year, a massive sports complex will have been completed in Songjiang College town, including stadiums and gymnasiums.The city education officials say that these facilities can be used for international competitions.例13:

I think a high school graduate with superior aptitude should by all means go on to college.With superior study skills, this student will probably do well in college and be able to find work upon graduation.// 我认为一名具有出色天赋的中学毕业生绝对应该继续念大学。因为掌握了良好的学习技能,这位学生很可能在大学里成绩出众并且能够在毕业时找到工作。

But high school students should really think twice about going to college.They should really consider what they want to get, or need to get, out of a college education.// 但是中学生对于上大学这个问题的确应该三思。他们的确应该想想他们想从大学教育中得到什么,或者需要从中得到什么。

If the student studies for a degree simply for the money, he should probably plan a career in which there is likely to be openings in the future.// 如果一名学生取得学位的目的只是为了赚钱,那么他就应该好好设计一条职业道路,保证将来可能会有好的出路。

If the student is one of those people who just want to learn, he‟d better make sure that he either has rich parents or will soon inherit a fortune.// 如果这个学生属于那种纯粹是为了学习而学习的人,那么他最好能有把握要么有有钱的父母撑腰,要么不久就会继承一大笔财产。

例14:

成立于1905年的复旦大学是我国的一所重点大学,是一所包含人文,理科,技术,医学,社科的综合性研究性大学。//

Founded in 1905, Fudan University is a comprehensive, research-oriented key university comprising the humanities, science, technology, medicine and social sciences.该校拥有一支高水平的师资队伍。在众多学科中,既有享誉四海,造诣弥深的老学者,又有一批优秀的中青年学科带头人。// It boasts a high-level faculty.Various branches of learning witness both the word‟s most respectable and highly accomplished senior scholars and distinguished young and middle-aged academic leaders.在2400余位的教师队伍中,有教授,副教授1600余位,其中博士生导师近500人,中国科学院,中国工程学院院士20余人。// Among the 2400 faculty members, there are over 1600 full and associate professors, and nearly 500 Ph D advisers.20 people are members of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and of the Chinese Academy of Engineering.例15:

In some backward rural areas, young girls usually become labors in their families at the age of ten.They have to look after their younger brothers and sisters and also do some farm work.// 在许多落后的农村地区,女孩子一般十岁以后就要成为家庭中的劳动力,既要照看弟妹,又要做农活。

今年以来,世界各地的恐怖袭击有增无减。据统计,有近1700起,占过去三年总合的58%.Our position on terrorism must be consistent and clear.First, we should oppose all forms of terrorism.Terrorist activities happening anytime, anywhere, organized by anybody and in whatever form, should be combated jointly and resolutely.// 我们必须在反恐问题上采用一贯和明确的立场。首先要反对一切形式的恐怖主义。恐怖活动不论发生在何时,何地,由何人组织,以何种方式出现,均应采取一致立场,坚决打击.Second, it is necessary to look into the root and acts of terrorism.Only by paying attention to and uprooting the cause of terrorism, can we solve the issue once and for all.//

其次,反恐要标本兼治。只有重视并解决恐怖主义滋生的根源,才能彻底铲除恐怖主义的滋生和蔓延。

The ongoing economic globalization and rapid advancement of science and technology have generated unprecedented technological conditions for global economic and social development in the new century.// 当前,经济全球化和科学技术的突飞猛进为新世纪全球经济和社会发展创造了前所未有的技术条件。

However, the information and communicationes development worldwide is seriously unbalanced.The gap between the rich and the poor in enjoying the benefits of and utilizing information resources and information technologies is widening instead of narrowing.然而,世界范围内信息技术发展极不平衡,贫富国家享有和利用信息资源和技术的差距不是在缩小,而是在扩大。

Narrowing and ultimately eliminating the “digital pide” is a major issue to be addressed in the process of building the information society.Otherwise, we would not be able to attain the goal of sustainable, sound and coordinated development of the global information society.如何让缩小直至消除“数字鸿沟”,是建设信息社会过程中急需解决的重大问题。否则,我们就无法再全球范围内实现信息社会持续,健康和协调发展的目标。

High blood pressure, or hypertension, affects one in five people in the UK and is a major risk factor for heart disease.The higher it climbs, the greater the force exerted by blood on the walks of the arteries when the heart beats.// 每五个英国人中就有一个患有高血压,高血压是心脏病发作的主要诱因。血压升得越高,心脏跳动时血液对动脉壁施加的压力就越大。

A study shows that the stress of returning to work on a Monday morning can trigger a dangerous increase in blood pressure.Most people are free of the mental and physical burdens of work on a Sunday and experience a more stressful change from weekend leisure activities to work activities on Mondays.// 一项研究表明,周一早上重返工作时的压力可以导致血压升高到危险的程度。很多人在星期天卸下了工作带来的精神和身体上的负担,但是从周末的休闲活动转换到周一的工作状态时,他们面临的压力增大。

An early morning rise in blood pressure is probably a normal part of the body‟s 24 hour rhythm and unlikely to be a problem for healthy people.However, if somebody already has cardiovascular disease, then it might just tip them over the edge and trigger a heart attack.血压在清晨身高很可能是人体24小时律动时的一种正常现象,对于健康的来说,这不是什么问题。但如果有的人本来就有心血管疾病,那这就可能把他们逼到临界点,导致心脏病发作。

2、精写前几段,给评卷老师留下一个好印象。要精雕细刻,要出彩。比如,可开门见山,直奔主题;可制造悬念,引人入胜;可提出问题,引人注意;或巧用排比、比喻、拟人等修辞手法,或。巧述故事,引人入胜,或巧用题记,揭示主旨,或巧用诗文显诗意。写好结尾和过渡段。阅卷老师一般是S型的扫描全文。结尾可画龙点睛,发人深思;或总结全文,照应开头;或虚笔拓展,扩大容量;或精辟议论,深化主旨。

3、要给自己充足的构思时间,不要急于动笔,’宁停三分,不争一秒’,因为写作是’开弓没有回头箭’的,写到一半,突然发现,呀,把题目理解错了,或没领会好命题的要求。最可怕的是文章写到一半,又想另起炉灶。时间没了,心情也坏了。干着急。建议打草稿,防止’三边工程’(边立项,边设计,边施工)。考场作文不宜见异思迁,边写边改。要贯彻一种构思。一旦构思已定,就不要轻易改变。

4、要力避前松后紧、虎头蛇尾。有些同学构思、提纲拟好后,开头反复推敲,精雕细琢,后来发现时间不够,于是草草收兵。此外,要谨慎对待修改。修改一般只着眼于字词方面的,可用米尺比好之后划两横。结构方面不能修改。要保持卷面的整洁美观,要努力做到改动少而效果好。

5、如果偏题或者离题,作文的主要分数就失去了。为防止跑题,可从如下几点做出努力:一是将材料、引语和话题联系起来思考,不可单看话题;二是看自己确立的观点能否用话题所给材料来证明;三是想一想这则材料当初发在媒体上登载是要达到一个什么效果的。万一跑题了,要考虑逆挽,使文章形成一种欲扬先抑的结构形态。

6、一定要完篇。熟话说,好文章是凤头、猪肚、豹尾。没有豹尾,老鼠尾巴也要有一个,绝不能写半头文。用半篇文章给你评分,怎么会得高分?

7、特别要注意不能缺题。不是万不得已,不要以话题做标题。拟题是显示你才气的一个好的平台,不能轻易放弃。缺题影响远不止2分。正好给了评卷老师扣分的理由。

8、文章要有一至两个亮点。学而思老师建议:如果是记叙文,应该用抓人的情节和生动的描写表现你的真情,记叙文不能没有描写。如果是议论文,就一定要有1--2个典型的论据,就应该有纵横捭阖,很深刻的见解。如果是微型小说一定要有巧妙的构思。这个亮点还可以是一句富有哲理的警句,也可以是一个精彩的比喻,也可以是一个超常的搭配(酽酽的歌喉)。总之,要能使评卷老师精神为之一震。

9、行文中要多次扣题,要一路扣题一路歌。材料、引语和话题中的相关文字至少在文中出现三次以上。开头三句话内应点题一次,结尾应回扣标题,’回眸一笑百媚生’。中间至少扣题一次。几次扣题事实上也是在不断地提醒自己不要跑题。有球场上叫暂停的效果,可以调整思路和写法。

10、思想要健康。’思想健康’不是说要你只说冠冕堂皇的话,不是要你刻意拔高,’健康’是针对’病态’、’庸俗’而言的,它的底线是不能欣赏违背法律法规和偏离社会道德的事。恋爱题材是考场作文的禁区,无论考生写得如何缠绵悱恻,真挚动人,因其行为是中学生日常行为规范所不允许的,这类作文自然得不了高分。

11、观点不可太绝对,要留有余地。’义正’未必要’辞严’,’理直’未必就要’气壮’。联系现实生活时,涉及社会黑暗面时,要有分寸,不要一味指责。’质问京山大冤案’。批评家长、老师和社会要与人为善,抱着协商与治病救人的态度,要提建设性意见。不可尖刻、讽刺、挖苦,甚至恶意地进行人身攻击。
