河北外国语职业学院11届毕业生材料 河北外国语职业学院2011届毕业生翻译材料英译汉原文Sarah PalinPolitician.Born Sarah Louise Heath on February 11, 1964, in Sandpoint, Idaho. At the age of three months, she moved to Alaska when her parents came to teach school in Skagway in southeast Alaska. Sarah Palins father, Charles, was a science teacher and track coach. Her mother, Sally, was a school secretary.Sarah Palin grew up in the small town of Wasilla, about 40 miles north of Anchorage. In 1982, she played on Wasilla High Schools state champion girls basketball team, picking up the nickname Sarah Barracuda for her intense playing style.After graduating from Wasilla High in 1982, Sarah Palin wore the crown of Miss Wasilla in 1984 and was the runner-up in the Miss Alaska contest. She went on to earn a bachelors degree in journalism from the University of Idaho in 1987. She also became a television sports reporter in Anchorage.An outdoors enthusiast, Palin is a lifetime member of the National Rifle Association. She is an avid hunter, eats moose hamburger and rides snowmobiles.Palin eloped with her high school sweetheart, Todd Palin, on August 29, 1988, and helped run his familys commercial fishing business. Todd, who is part Yupik Eskimo, also worked for BP at a Prudhoe Bay processing facility. He took leave from the company when his wife became governor to avoid a potential conflict of interest.Affectionately referred to as Alaskas First Dude, Todd is also a four-time champion of the Iron Dog, the worlds longest snow machine race. From 1995 to 2002, he was a member of Alaskas Independence Party, a fierce states rights group that wants to turn all federal lands in Alaska back to the state. Some party leaders have advocated Alaskan secession from the United States.Palin and her husband have five children: Bristol (who is 17-years-old and expecting a baby with boyfriend Levi Johnston, a hockey player at Bristols high school), Willow, Piper, Track (who is in the U.S. Army and was deployed to Iraq on September 11, 2008) and Trig (who was born in April 2008 with Down syndrome).Palin entered politics in 1992, winning a seat on the Wasilla City Council by opposing tax hikes. Four years later, she was elected mayor of Wasilla by knocking off a three-term incumbent.As mayor, Palin cut property taxes and reduced spending. She also raised the city sales tax by a half a percent to build a popular sports complex and put more money into public safety.Mayor Palin also effectively used the system of congressional earmarks. She collected $26.9 million in such funding, according the independent watchdog group Taxpayers for Common Sense, including $15 million for a commuter rail project.Palin ran her first statewide campaign in 2002 in a bid for the Republican nomination for lieutenant governor. She lost by fewer than 2,000 votes.Alaska Governor Frank Murkowski appointed Sarah Palin to chair the states Oil and Gas Conservation Commission in 2003. She resigned a year later in protest over what she perceived to be the lack of ethics of fellow Alaskan Republican leaders, including Republican Party Chair Randy Ruedrich.In 2006, Palin won the Republican primary for Governor, defeating Murkowski. She went on to win the general election in November 2006 by defeating former Democratic Governor Tony Knowles in the general election, 49 percent to 41 percent.While running for governor, Palin supported the so-called bridge to nowhere, which later was criticized (by John McCain and others) as too expensive ($400 million) to build a bridge to a remote Alaskan community. Palin said the bridge was essential for local prosperity. But once she became governor, she turned against it, citing rising costs and other priorities.I told Congress thanks but no thanks for that bridge to nowhere up in Alaska, Palin said. If we wanted a bridge well build it ourselves.Palin made history on December 4, 2006, when she was sworn-in as the first woman and youngest governor of Alaska. She was also the states first governor who was born after Alaska achieved statehood in 1959.With an emphasis on ethics and openness in government, Palins administration focused on education, public safety and transportation.As a conservative Protestant, she is unabashedly pro-life. She opposes all abortions, unless the mothers life is in danger, said Curtis Smith, spokesman for the 2006 Palin campaign. Palin also said she opposes embryonic stem cell research.She has supported the teaching of creationism, the belief that life was created by a deity, in public schools, alongside evolution, as reported by the Anchorage Daily News. She also said creationism doesnt have to be part of the curriculum.The Anchorage Daily News also said Palin supported Alaskas decision to amend its constitution to ban same-sex marriage.On the energy front, Palin has intensely pursued a pipeline to deliver natural gas from the North Slope of Alaska to market. In summer 2008, the state legislature approved her plan to give a $500 million subsidy to TransCanada, a Canadian company, to help build the project.She also passed a major tax increase on state oil production, promising to give some of that money back to Alaskans in the form of a $1,200 check.While very popular, Palin is not without personal controversy. An independent investigator hired by a legislative panel is looking into whether Governor Palin abused her power when she fired Public Safety Commissioner Walt Monegan in July 2008.Lawmakers say they want to know whether Palin was angry at the commissioner for not firing an Alaska state trooper who went through a messy divorce and ongoing child custody battles with Palins sister.Palin denies any wrongdoing, saying Monegan was insubordinate in disputes over budget issues. She decided to stop cooperating with the investigation and Palins husband, Todd, and several top aides have refused to comply with subpoenas.Campaign aides described the state senator managing the investigation, Hollis French, as a Democratic partisan who is running a tainted inquiry. French has denied working on behalf of the Obama campaign. And the Obama campaign described the charge as complete paranoia.John McCain picked Sarah Palin as his running mate on August 29, 2008, formally introducing her during a campaign rally in Dayton, Ohio. Formally nominated on September 4 at the Republican National Convention, Palin is the second woman to run for vice president on a U.S. major partys ticket and the first Republican female to do so.Addressing the partys convention in St. Paul, Minnesota, on Sept. 3, Palin depicted herself as just your average hockey mom, joking that the only difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull is lipstick.In her first nationally televised interview since being named Republican John McCains vice presidential running mate, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin said she didnt hesitate when asked to join the ticket and believes she is prepared to run the country if necessary.Im ready, Palin told ABCs Charles Gibson on Sept. 11, 2008. I answered him yes because I have the confidence in that readiness and knowing that you cant blink, you have to be wired in a way of being so committed to the mission, the mission that were on, reform of this country and victory in the war, you cant blink.英译汉译文萨拉 佩林萨拉路易丝希思佩林，美国政治家，1964年11月诞生于桑德波因特。由于父母到南阿拉斯加斯卡圭教书，在襁褓时便举家搬到阿拉斯加州。萨拉佩林的父亲查尔斯曾是一名化学老师和越野赛教练。而她的母亲是一名学校秘书。萨拉 佩林在距安克雷奇40英里的阿拉斯加一个小镇渡过自己的童年。1982年，她在阿拉斯加州高中女子篮球冠军队效力，因为她有力的打法获得了“梭子鱼”的外号。1982年从阿拉斯加州高中毕业后，1984年萨拉 佩林摘得1984年度“瓦西拉小姐”桂冠，同年她获得“阿拉斯加小姐”选美比赛第二名。1987年佩林进入爱达荷大学，主修新闻学。同时她成为了安克雷奇的一名电台体育记者。作为一名户外运动爱好者，佩林是国家步枪协会的终生会员。她是一个敢于尝试新鲜事物的人，吃麋肉汉堡骑雪地摩托。1988年8月29号，佩林与在高中时深爱的男友托德私奔，并且帮助他经营家族的渔业经营。托德有阿拉斯加土著爱斯基摩人血统，也为北斯洛普为英国石油公司工作，当妻子成为州长后为了避免潜在的利益冲突他离开了公司。阿拉斯加的首位公爵，托德同时也是四届Iron Dog（世界最长雪地摩托大赛）的冠军。从1995年到2002年，他一直是阿拉斯加独立党的一名成员，独立党是企图夺取阿拉斯加的联邦土地的国家极右翼势力组织。一些党派的领导人获得了美国阿拉斯加的选举提名。佩林和丈夫有5个孩子：分别是布里斯托尔（现年17岁，想和布里斯托尔高中曲棍球队的男友里维约翰斯顿要一个孩子）、威洛、派珀和特拉克（现在美国军队服役于2008年11月被安排到伊拉克去），小儿子特里格（2008年4月出生）。佩林1992年进入政坛，凭借减税政策获得瓦西拉议会一席。四年后，她击败了连任三次的市长被选举为新一任的瓦西拉市长。上任后，佩林取消个人财产税，削减开支。她提高了5%的营业税额，将此用于修建体育场馆和公共基础设施建设。镇长佩林充分的利用国会的专项拨款。她收集了两千六百九十万美元的专款基金，据监管组织常识纳税人协会说，包括一千五百万美元的通勤铁路工程。佩林在2002年第一次角逐共和党参加副州长选举的提名。但由于2000票之差丢掉了选举。2003年，她被阿拉斯加州长任命为阿拉斯加石油与天然气保护委员会的道德监察委员。一年后为了抗议委员会中共和党领袖(包括共和党主席兰迪)的腐败行为，她辞去了自己的职务。在2006年，佩林击败了穆尔科斯基赢得了竞选州长的共和党初选。接下来她以49%对41%的优势又击败了前任州长托尼诺尔斯，拿下了2006年11月的大选。在竞选州长的工程中，佩林支持所谓的“无名桥”建设计划，但由于修建这样一座通往偏远阿里斯加社区的桥花费太大（四亿美元）招致了批评（来自约翰麦凯恩和其他人的）。佩林认为为了促进地区繁荣建桥的很有必要的。但是当她成为州长后，考虑到不断增长的成本和其他亟待解决的问题，她的态度发生了改变，变得反对这项计划。“我感谢国会但并不是因为无名桥”佩林说道。“如果我们想要一座桥我们会自己建的。”在2006年12月4号，当佩林作为阿里斯加首任女州长宣誓就职时她创造了历史。同时她也是首位出生于1959阿里斯加成州后的州长。重视政府清廉和政务公开，佩林的管理以教育、公共安全和交通运输为重点。作为一个对保守派的抗议者，她公开表示反对堕胎。佩林竞选团队的发言人柯蒂斯史密说除非母亲的生命受到威胁否则佩林反对各种形式的流产。佩林还反对胚胎干细胞的研究。她支持在公立学校讲授特别创造说，一种相信生命是由神在进化过程中创造的信仰，据安克雷奇每日新闻的报道。当然她也表示了“特别创造说并不是必须被列入课程的一部分”。与此同时雷奇每日新闻也报道了佩林支持阿拉斯加修改宪法以禁止同性恋结婚的修宪决议。在能源方面，佩林一直致力于建输气管把阿拉斯加北部的天然气引入市场。在2008年的夏天，州立法机关通过了她的这一提案，给横加公司（一家加拿大公司）五亿美元的拨款来完成该天然气项目。她还成功地推动了增加石油产量税这一举措，并且保证从这部分钱中拿出来一部分以一千二百美元支票的形式回馈给阿里斯加市民。即使在成名后，佩林也免不了饱受个人争论。一名受雇于立法团的独立调查员一直在调查佩林在2008年7月解雇公安专员沃特摩尼根时是否滥用权力。立法者表示他们想知道佩林是否为专员未解雇一名阿里斯加州警察而将其革职，这名州警察正是与佩林的妹妹已离婚但正在进行孩子抚养权诉讼的佩林的前妹夫。佩林否认了各种猜测和不实报道，并说道摩尼根在预算问题上与她有争论。她决定停止和调查的合作，佩林的丈夫托德还有几位竞选团队的副手拒绝传票。竞选团队的副手认为州参议员荷里士弗兰奇操纵着调查，作为民主党的一员他现在正在开展一项官员违纪调查。他否认了这么做是为了奥巴马竞选。奥巴马竞选团队认为这一指控根本是子虚乌有。2008年8月29日，约翰麦凯恩挑选莎拉佩林作为他的竞选副手，在俄亥俄州代顿的一次竞选宣传活动中正式向大家介绍了佩林。正式提名是在9月4号的共和党全民代表大会上，佩林是美国主要党派中第二位竞选副总统职位的妇女，同时是共和党首位女竞选人。9月3号圣保罗明尼苏达党大会上，佩林把自己描绘成“平凡的曲棍球母亲”，开玩笑道一个曲棍球母亲和一只比特犬的区别就是一只唇膏。在成为共和党麦凯恩总统竞选副手的第一次公开全国电视访谈上，阿拉斯加州州长佩林说当被问及是否要加入时自己没有犹豫，她觉得自己已经做好了在必要的时候执掌国家的准备。“我准备好了，”佩林在2008年9月11号对美国广播公司的查尔斯吉布森这样说道。“我回答了是是因为我有信心并且准备就绪，不再犹豫，你需要拿出一种足够努力的工作态度去完成自己的使命，我们现在的使命是药呈现给大家一个焕然一新的国家，赢得我们的胜利，所以不可犹豫。”汉译英原文“熊猫舞步”隐含中国外交路线走势图在1982年之前，中国的“熊猫外交”均是纯政治性的赠送模式，而熊猫出使到一国时，往往会出现万人空巷的场面，许多大熊猫抵达当地都得到“国家元首的待遇”。1972年4月，兴兴和玲玲一到华盛顿，马上造成国家动物园前所未见的万人空巷，开放第一天就有两万多人挤进观赏。这一年也堪称“熊猫外交年”。除了向美国赠送兴兴和玲玲外，由于考虑到当时中国与日本已开始邦交正常化，中国向日本赠送了一对大熊猫兰兰和康康，据当时的人民日报记载，“护送熊猫的座机一进入日本领空，就有一个战斗机编队的护航”。随着中国与欧洲国家关系渐趋缓和。1973年，在西方国家中第一个与中国建交的法国获赠一对大熊猫燕燕和黎黎。一年后，中国送给英国一对大熊猫佳佳和晶晶。1975年，中国则又赠送墨西哥一对大熊猫迎迎和贝贝。三年后，中国赠送西班牙一对熊猫绍绍和强强.1980年，为了对联邦德国示好，时任国家主席华国锋赠予西德一对熊猫天天和宝宝，宝宝运抵联邦德国时“受到了红地毯的接待”。在此期间，在全球三大洲，从美国的东西两岸到中美洲的墨西哥，欧洲的苏联、英国、德国、法国和西班牙，以及亚洲的日本和朝鲜，都有了熊猫的踪迹。1992年玲玲去世，令美国举国上下沉浸在悲恸之中，人们对它的哀悼比晚它一周辞世的芭蕾巨星努列耶夫有过之无不及，世界自然保护基金会的瑞士总部也第一次下半旗致哀.跟玲玲离去一样，1999年11月28日去世的兴兴令整个美国陷入了悲痛之中，当年，不少美国媒体均用“熊猫外交使节去世”为题报道了此事。由于熊猫生存环境的恶化，并且担心国内数量本已非常有限的大熊猫日渐减少。自1982年后，中国停止了向外纯政治性的赠送模式，许多国家纷纷通过各种方式邀请中国大熊猫去“访问”，中国也先后组织了数十次“大熊猫访问团”。美国洛杉矶奥运会期间，国际奥委会就特邀了一对中国大熊猫前去展出。而在此期间，中国赠送熊猫仅限于国内，例如香港、台湾。事实上早在1988年，大陆就曾表达送台湾熊猫之意。当时要送的是北京动物园里的熊猫陵陵和乐乐，台湾因为政治考虑而回绝。2001年3月，大陆又准备送台湾熊猫，时任台“行政院长”的张俊雄在“立法院”答询时，还正面表示说，“如果符合华盛顿公约规定，我们当然欢迎”。不过，后来没有下文，熊猫赴台又成空话。如果比照美国、日本等外国模式，向大陆“租借”熊猫，台湾不但每年均需编列数十至百万美元巨额预算，提供给大陆作为熊猫栖息复育研究与改善作业经费，而且租借是“国对国”的方式，会变成大陆租借给台湾，台湾变成外国，不符合政治要求。直到2005年，两岸决定采取“动物交换繁殖保育计划”，由台北木栅动物园、四川卧龙保护区，两岸两个机构交换动物，回避高度敏感的政治争议。但当时以陈水扁为首的台湾当局以赠台熊猫有政治意义为由，拒绝接受。直到三年后的2008年12月23日，赠送给台湾的大熊猫团团和圆圆才顺利抵达台北.上世纪90年代初，越来越多的环境保护团体对大熊猫租借采取抵制态度。在各方的努力下，中国停止了商业目的的熊猫出租。1994年，成都大熊猫繁育研究基地的两只熊猫第一次以“科研交流大使”的身份出国，旅居日本白浜山野生动物园。此后，日本和歌山、韩国首尔以及美国亚特兰大、华盛顿、孟菲斯等世界上不少动物园都开始与中国进行长期的合作研究。2007年9月12日，国家林业局宣布，“中国不再向国外赠送大熊猫，但仍可以与国外开展合作研究”。当时的英国卫报曾表示：“中国历史悠久的熊猫外交传统画上了句号。但显然，“熊猫外交”并没有划上句号。相反，中国的“熊猫舞步”越走越远，这一次，走的更远，走到了大洋洲。目前，中国与5个国家9家动物园开展了大熊猫繁育、生理等各方面的合作研究，涉及的大熊猫有30只。根据1975年的濒危物种国际贸易公约，外国动物园只能以租借的方式，以科学研究交换的名义获得熊猫。汉译英译文Panda steps implicit Chinas diplomatic routeBefore 1982, all of Chinese Panda diplomacy were pure political giving patterns. When the pandas were sent on a diplomatic mission, there often appeared the scene of whole town turns out. Many pandas can received the head of state treatment when they arrived.In April 1972, as soon as Xingxing and Lingling arrived in Washington, the nation zoo appeared the unprecedented scene of whole town turns out. In the first open day, there were more than 20,000 tourists crammed into view.This year also can be called Panda diplomatic year. Except gifted to America Xingxing and Lingling, because China and Japan has begun the normalization at that time, China gifted a pair of pandas Lanlan and Kangkang to Japan. According to that Peoples Daily, as the pandas convoy entered Japan , a fighter squadrons escorted for them.Along with China and European countries eased relationship gradually. In 1973, China gifted a pair of pandas Yanyan and Lili to France-the first country had diplomatic ties with China in western. One year later, China gave Jiajia and Jingjing to British as a present. In 1975, presented Yingying and Beibei to Mexico as a gift. Three years later, gifted Shaoshao and Qiangqiang to Spain.In 1980, in order to advance the relationship with Germany, then national chairman Hua Guofeng granted a pair of pandas Tiantian and Baobao to West Germany, they get the red carpet reception in Germany.During the time, the pandas trail was all over the three continents in the global, from the United States east west cross-strait to Mexico in the central American, the Soviet Union, Britain, Germany, France,and Spain in Europe, and Japan and Korea in Asian.In 1992, Lingling died, the United States whole nation immersed in mourning. People expressed their condolences for her go even beyond the ballet star Rudolf Nureyev who died a week later. The flag was also hung at half mast in Swiss headquarters of WWF.Like Linglings death, Xingxing, who died on 28 November 1999, made all the United States into a grief. In those days, many American media reported it named as Panda envoy death.Due to the deterioration of the panda living environment, and worried about our very limited domestic number of pandas gradually dwindled down, China has stopped pure political giving patterns outside. Many countries invited pandas in succession through various ways. China also organized Pandas Contingent dozens of times early or later. During the Los Angeles Olympics, IOC especially invited a pair of China pandas on show.During that time, Chinese panda just gifted for domestic, such as Hong Kong, Taiwan.In fact, early in 1988, China expressed our idea of sending Taiwan panda.Then we wanted to gift Lingling and Lele who lived in the Beijing zoo. Because of the political consideration, Taiwan refused.In March 2001, mainland tried to gift Taiwan pandas, the executive president Zhang Junxiong in Legislature positive said, If meet Washington convention, of course, we welcome. But later, no news, panda went to Taiwan become bosh.If compared with American and Japanese patterns borrow panda from China, Taiwan not only hugely budget hunderds of thousands to millions of dollars to mainland as panda habitat foster research and improvement work funds, on the other hand, Lease is the way for country to country, it becomes mainland lease to Taiwan, Taiwan becomes foreign country, it does not conform to the political requirements.Until 2005, Cross-strait decided to take animal exchange reproductive conservation plan, by the Taipei zoo in Muzha, Sichuan Wolong Re
