英语翻译练习( 1 )当前最重要的任务是发展国民经济，提高人民生活水平。为了实现这个目标，我们必须改革旧的经济体制，以便进一步解放生产力。我们应当向世界敞开大门，以便学习其他国家先进的科学和技术。只要我们坚持改革开放政策，就一定能把我国建设成为强大的社会主义强国。The most important task is to develop our national economy and improve peoples living standard. To realize the aim, we must reform our old economy system, so as to liberate the productive forces furthe. We should open doors to the world, to learn the advance science and technology of the other countries. As long as we stick to our reform and open-door policy, we are sure to make our country into a strong and great socialist country. (2)为了接待每年数以百万计的外国游客，我国旅游部门正在想方设法改善旅游住宿设施。许多地区正在开发新的旅游中心，兴建更多的现代宾馆，培训更多的外语导游，以适应日益发展的旅游业的需要。To receive millions of foreign visitors annually, chinas tourism department are trying rvery possible means to improve accommodation for tourists. In many places new tourism centers are being exploited, more and more modern hotels are being set up and foreign language speaking tourist guides are being trained to meet the growing needs of tourism industry. (3)教育在社会经济发展和提高人类文化素质方面起着重要的作用。科学和技术的进步将有力地推动教育的发展。同时教育的发展又将促进科学技术的进步。因此，将发展教育放在一个重要的位置上是非常必要的。Education plays an important role in the social economic development and the improvement of individwals cultural qualities. The advance in science and technology will give a big push to the development of education and the education will promote the scientific and technical progress. Therefore it is recessary to give an important position very necessary to put educational development in a significant position to the education development (4)不吸烟者的权利问题在许多国家里开始讨论。迄今为止，多数国家很少或还没有采取措施。众所周知，从长远的观点看，如果能完全禁止吸烟，那么人们的境况将得到很大的改善。但显然，我们对此尚无准备。The issue of non-smokers rights began to be talked about in many countries.Up to now ,most countries have taken little or even no actions. It is well- known to all that if smoking is completely banned,peoples living conditions will be greatly improved in the long run,but obviously, we have not got ready for that. (5)很多教师认为，学习主要依赖于学生本人。教师起指导作用，布置书单，让学生阅读，希望学生能够熟悉阅读得到的信息。理想的学生被认为是为了学习而学习的学生，更是为了学习而使用知识的学生，而并非仅仅想取得高分的学生。Many teachers believe that learning mainly depends on students theirselves. Teachers just guide them and give them a reading list, expecting them to be familiar with the information acquired for the sake of learning,not those who are interested only in getting high grades.(6)每个国家都有自己独特的进餐习俗。美国人认为，要做一个受欢迎的客人，首先就是要准时。如果某人应邀六点半赴宴，女主人就指望他六点半到或者最多晚到几分钟。客人如果不能按时到达，应该打电话通知男主人或女主人，讲明原因，并说明什么时间能赶到。Every country has its own unique eating customs. Americans think that a welcomed guest should first be punctual. If one is invited to dinner at 6:30, the hostess will expect him to arrive at 6:30 or a few minutes late. if the guest cannot arrive on time, he should call the host, explaining why he cannot make it on time and when he can arrive. (7)中国政府已作出了重大的努力，动员人民因地制宜地开展改善生态环境的工作。我们还要做出更大的努力来提高人们的环境意识。需要新闻媒体广泛宣传我国的环境政策，普及环境知识，使每一个人投入保护生态环境的行动中去。The government of China has already made great efforts to call on people to organize people to improve the ecological environment in the light of local conditions. We have to redouble our efforts to further raise peoples awareness of the environment . Mass media are needed to furtherpublicize environment policies, further spread knowledge about environment and moblize the public to participate actively in environmental protection.(8)电视在我们日常生活中的作用主要反映在娱乐和信息两个方面。娱乐包括电影、音乐、体育比赛等。信息包括新闻、教育节目、讲座等。在娱乐方面，电视使我们的生活丰富多彩；在信息方面，我们可以了解到所发生的一切。The role of the TV in our daily life is reflected mainly in two aspects, namely entertainment and information. The entertainment includes films, music sports etc. And information includes news, education programs, TV lectures,etc. The entertainment provided by TV makes our life colorful while information enables us to keep in touch with what is going on around us. (9)在我们这个时代，任何人想要在社会上起到所希望起的作用，必须接受必要的教育。随着科学的进步，在中小学开设了越来越多的课程。与过去的教育相比，现代教育更重视实用性。In our times, anyone who wants to play an important role in a society as he wishes must receive neccssary education. With the development of science, more courses are offered in primary schools and middle schools. Compared with the old educaiton, modern education puts its scress on practicality. (10)个人主义和集体主义渗透进东西文化的方方面面，影响着美国和中国的经济、政治、伦理道德和价值观，在交往方式上尤为如此。这一点是很重要的，因为调查研究已经证实，国际商务和国际关系上的失败，首要的原因不是经济上的也不是商务上的，而是跨文化交流方面的。Individualism and collecitvism have an influence on the economy, policy, ethics and values of both American and Chinese by permeating all aspects.It is especially the case in contacting with other countries. .It is important for investigation has proved that the main reason. Leading to the failure in international business and relationship lies neither in economy nor in business but in the cross-cultural. (11)在过去的十几年里，可能没有任何其他话题比领导艺术更受到管理研究者的关注。在管理人员的培训和开发方面，领导艺术也是热门的话题之一。这表明专业管理人员对探索卓有成效的领导艺术的奥秘感兴趣。Over the past few decades, perhaps no topic has drawn more attention from management researchers than the art of leadership. It is also one of the hottest topics in the management training and development, which shows that professional managements are interested in discovering the secrets to effective leadership. (12)亚裔美国人对美国做出了杰出的贡献。这些贡献包括诸如自然科学、医学、法律、文艺、艺术等各个领域。由于亚裔移民的祖籍国家具有丰富多样的传统，他们大大促进了美国文化的发展，提高了全美国人民的生活水平。Americans of Asian descent have made outstanding contributions to the Unted States. These contributions cover various fields such as natural science, medicine, law, literature , art and etc. As the native countries of Asian immigrants have rich and colorful traditions, they have greatly promoted the American culture and improved the living standard of the whole American people. (13)环境科学家们说，如果要使地球继续供养人类生存，保护野生生物是极为重要的。这些专家说我们必须明白在我们的这个环境供养系统中，我们自己与野生动植物之间的重要联系。他们指出，没有人有把握地知道这些动植物种的哪一种将来可能对我们有用。The environment scientists said that if we want the earth to continue to support human beings. its extremely important to protect the wild life. These experts went on to say that we must understand the important relationship between us and wild animals and plants in our environmental supporting system. They pointed out that nobody knows for sure which of animals or plants would be useful for us in the future. (14)别人抽烟，你吸入，确实会对你的肺有危害。据美国肺协估计，每年约有3000名死于肺癌的人是被动吸烟者。有一项调查发现，不吸烟的妇女，如果在吸烟的家庭环境中生活40年或更长的时间，那么就有加倍患肺癌的危险。It surely does harm to your lungs if other people smoke and you breath it in. According to the estimate of American Lung Association,each year about 3000 people per year who die from lung cancer are passive smokers. An investigation indicated that non-smoking women living in a smoking family environment for 40 years or still longer will have double risk of developing lung cancer. (15)文化是不同国家的人们互相理解的最佳媒体。通过举办文化节，许多中国城市在世界上的知名度提高了。已经证明，对促进中国人民和世界其他地方人民之间的交流来说，这是最好的途径之一。这种交流没有仅限于文化方面，还扩大到经济和其他领域。Culture is the best medium for different people of different countries to understand each other. Through holding cultural festivals Many cities in China have become better know to the world. It has been proved that this is one of the best ways to promotes the exchange between the people of China and other parts of the world., the exchange has not only been confined to culture, but extended to the economic and other fields. (16)除了干旱时期，人们从不把水看成是宝贵的自然资源。因为我们想当然地以为水和空气一样的不值钱。然而由于人口增加以及可怕的浪费，在当今世界的许多地方，供水已成为一大挑战，而且是一个严重的社会问题。如果我们的政府不采取积极有效的措施来解决这个问题，在不久的将来，我们就会面临缺水的灾难。Except in times of drought ,water has never been regarded as a valuable natural resources since for we take it for granted that water, like air, is cheap and can be found everywhere. However, partly because of the increased population and partly because of awful waste, water supply has become a great challenge in many parts of the world,and shortage of water has been a serious social problem. If our government doesnt take active and effective measures to solve this problem, we will face disaster in the near future. (17)环境与发展，是当今国际社会普遍关注的问题。人类经过漫长的奋斗历程，特别是从产业革命以来，在改造自然和发展经济方面建树了辉煌的业绩。与此同时，由于工业化过程中的处置失当，尤其是不合理地开发利用自然资源，造成了全球性的环境污染和生态破坏，对人类的生存和发展构成了现实威胁。保护生态环境，实现持续发展，已成为全世界紧迫而艰巨的任务。Environment and development are two major concerns of the international community. Through its arduous efforts of many years, especially those made since the Industrial Revolution, mankind has made brilliant achievements in transforming nature and developing economy. Yet neglect of environment in the course of industrialization, particularly the irrational exploitation and utilization of resources has caused global environmental pollution and ecological degradation posing a real threat to the survival and development of mankind. It is therefore an urgent and formidable task for all countries around the world to protect the ecological environment and maintain a sustainable development. (18)The fear that technology would eliminate jobs is not peculiar to our country. It goes back at least to the first part of the last century. It was then that groups of English workers tried to prevent the industrialization of Britain by wrecking factories and machinery. They thought the machines were going to take away their jobs. In fact, the machines increased the number of jobs well beyond anyones wildest dream.人们对技术将会消除工作的恐惧在本世纪已不足为奇。因为(这种现象)至少可以追溯到上世纪的前叶。在那个时期，英国的工人阶级通过破坏工厂，砸坏机器，为了阻止本国的工业化进程。因为他们认为工业化会造成他们失业。事实上(恰恰相反，然而)工业化增加了就业机会远远超过人们的想象。 (19)相对而言，要求没有受过教育的人节约资源比较困难。他们往往认为资源只是唾手可得的原料罢了，用得再多也不过分。他们很少注意到大自然的毁灭所造成的致命后果。跟没有受过教育的人相对照的是，大多数受过教育的人把他们的幸福跟大自然联系在一起，并且为了保护自我而努力保护大自然。尽管在当前环境问题的讨论中，人们可能很难区分各种建议孰优孰劣，但是一位当代评论家主张以人的名义保护大自然应该成为我们的指导原则。Its relative more difficult to call for poorly-educated people to conserve resources because they tend to view resources as nothing more than handy materials, which they can never overuse to the point of excess. Theyre seldom aware of the fatal consequences of the ruin of nature. In contrast, more-educated people bind their own well-being to that of nature, and try to preserve nature on the grounds of self-preservation. Though it may be difficult distinguish a good proposal from a bad one in our current debate on environmental issues, one contemporary commentator has argued that protecting the environment in the name of man should be guiding principles. (20)Studies show that most doctors sincerely believe that seriously ill do not want to know the truth about their condition, and that informing them risks destroying their hope, so that they may recover more slowly, or deteriorate faster, perhaps even commit suicide. Dying patients can not make decisions about the end of life: about whether or not they should enter a hospital, or have surgery; about where and with whom they should spend their remaining time; about how they should take leave of their family or friends.研究表明，多数医生深信重症病人并不想知道他们的真实病情，同时也明确地认为如果让病人知道病情会导致病人康复的希望破灭，反而导致他们恢复更慢或者病情恶化更快，甚至可能导致他们自杀。危重病人不能够对他的余生作出合理安排，如他们是否应该继续留院，是否应该立刻进行手术，或者他们应该在哪里以及和谁共度剩下来的时光，甚至他们应该如何与自己的家人、朋友道别。 (21)心理学家们通过众多的事实证实这一说法：要想让自己很快从低落的情绪中解脱出来，你得让自己哭。你不必为哭而感到羞愧。忧虑和悲伤能随时同眼泪一起流出身体。看一看Donna的例子吧。她的儿子在一次车祸中不幸丧生。这次打击之大使她欲哭无泪。她说：“直到两个星期后的一天，我才开始放声痛哭。然后，我便觉得好像一块大石头从我的肩上抬走了。是眼泪将我带回了现实之中。”Psychologists have used numerous facts to confirm the statement that you should allow yourself to cry in order to recover quickly from negation emotion. You neednt fell ashamed of crying. Anxiety and sorrow can flow out of body along with tears. Take Donna for example. Her son unfortunately died in a car accident. The intensity of blow made her unable to cry . She said, “It was not until two weeks later that I began to cry.And then I felt as if a big stone had been lifted from my shoulders. It was the tears that brought me back to reality.” (22)As a person he was not unintelligent. He had read widely in history and thought he understood its lessons. But as dictator he had made the fatal mistake of seeking to make a martial, imperial Great Power of a country which lacked the industrial resources to become one and whose people, unlike the Germans, were too civilized, too sophisticated, too down to earth to be attracted by such false ambitions.作为普通人，他不是不聪明，而是非常聪明。他广泛阅读历史，并且认为他已经懂得历史的教训。但作为一个独裁者，他却犯了一个致命的错误，试图去创建一个伟大的帝国，他又缺乏工业资源来成为一个军事帝国。他的人民不像德国人，太过文明了，非常老练，过于现实，以致不可能被他的理想抱负所吸引。(23)也许你羡慕我，因为我可以借助计算机在家里工作。我也这么想，互联网使我的工作方便多了。我可以通过电子邮件撰写、编辑并交出我的文章，在网上与我的同事聊天，与老板讨论工作。我用鼠标一击，马上就能拿到我要的一切资料，获得最新的消息。可是，另一方面，用网络通信有时也令人沮丧。系统有可能瘫痪，更糟的是，因为没有面对面交谈的情感提示，键出的词有时候似乎很难理解。Perhaps you envy me for being able to work from home on the computer. I agree that the internet has made my job a lot easier. I can write, submit and edit articles via email, chat with my colleagues online and discuss work with my boss. With a click of the mouse, I can get all the data I need and keep up with the latest news. But then, communication through the net can be frustrating at time. The system may be paralyzed, worse still, without the emotional case of face-to-face communication, the type words sometimes seem difficult to interpret. (24)The circumstances of his death set Lincoln apart from other American leaders. Had Lincoln lived, it might well be that his postwar policies would have brought criticisms upon him that would have tarnished his popularity. Instead, an assassins bullet erased in the mind of Americans any faults he had and emphasized his virtues.林肯之死使他区别于其他的美国领导人。假使林肯还活着，他的战后政策极有可能受到人们的指责，而这些指责会有损他的声望。相反，一枚暗杀者的子弹抹去了他在美国人心中的任何缺陷，而突出了他的美德。 (25)我认为总结一下学习英语的经验是值得一试的。这里，我想谈谈三个相关的问题。首先，大量阅读应视作学习过程中的重点，因为我们是通过阅读获取大量语言输入的。其次，尽可能多背熟一些好文章也十分重要。一方面，死记硬背确实无甚裨益，但另一方面，在真正理解基础上的熟记肯定对我们有好处。大脑中储存了大量很好的文章，我们在用英语表达自己理想的时候，就会觉得容易多了。最后，我们应把所学到的东西用到实践中去，这是至关重要的。通过多读、多写、多听、多说，我们就能完成提高英语水平的任务。I consider it worthwhile trying to summarize our experience in learning English. Here, I would like to make three revevant points first wind-reading should be taken as a priority in the learning process.Because it is through reading that we get the most of language input. Next, learning by heart as many well-writing essays as possible is also very important. On the one hand, learning by note is indeed of little help, but on the other hand, learning by heart with a good understanding will certainly be of benefit for us. With an enormous store of excellent essays in our heads. We will find it much easier to express ourselves in english. Finally, it is critical that we should put what we have learned into practice. By doing more reading, writing, listening and speaking, well be able to accomplish the task of perfecting our English. (26)He had never been to school or university but had studied privately and by the time he was twenty was a skillful chemist and excellent linguist, speaking Swedish, Russian, German, French and English. Like his father, Alfred Nobel was imaginative and inventive, but he had better luck in business and showed more financial sense. He was quick to see industrial openings for his scientific inventions and built up over 80 companies in 20 different countries. Indeed his greatness lay in his outstanding ability to combine the qualities of an original scientist with those of a forward-looking industrialist.他从未上过学，全靠自学成才，20岁时便成了一名技术娴熟的化学师，通晓数国语言，能熟练地说瑞典语、俄语、德语、法语和英语。像父亲一样，艾尔弗雷德诺贝尔有着丰富的想象力和创造力，但他在事业上却比他父亲走得远，也更有经济头脑。他不失时机地把自己的科学发明运用到工业上，在20个国家内开设了80多家公司。他的过人之处实际上就在于他有杰出的才能，把一个具有独创性的科学家和一个具有远见卓识的实业家的品质融为一体。第六册课后1 虽然对于战争的恐怖，他和他的同代人颇有同感，而且一度被称为绥靖主义的“精神之父”然而事实上凯恩斯从来不抱绥靖希特勒的错觉。他狠纳粹政权，1933年后从来没访问过德国。相反，为了反对希特勒，作为英国和盟国的首席谈判代表，他积极寻求伦敦和华盛顿的共同利益。While he shared his generations horror of war and was once called the “spiritual father” of appeasement, Keynes never , in fact, entertained the delusion that Hitler could be pacified. He hated the Nazi regime, never visited Germany after 1933. Instead, as Britains chief negotiator in contact with the Allies against Hitler, he pursued vigorously the common interest between London and Washington.2 有些人错误地认为，美国是一个充满机会的国度，而且人人都享有平等的机会。带着这种梦想，许多受过良好教育的专业人员络绎不绝地流入美国，去寻找美好的生活，有的甚至认为在那里过着什么样的生活都可以。他们宁愿到美国过穷日子，也不愿在国内过相对富裕的生活。因此在迈阿密，人们可以看到来自中美洲国家的律师和医生在给人洗汽车，或在餐馆洗盘子。Some people wrongly believe that the United States is a land of opportunity, and that everybody enjoys equal opportunities. With various dreams in mind, many well-trained professionals steadily migrate to the United States in search of a good life. Some of them are even willing to live any life there. They would rather live in poverty there than enjoy a relative prosperity at home. Therefore, lawyers and doctors from Central America may be found washing cars or waiting on tables in Miami.3 在一个日益需要成为多国地球村的世界里，21世纪需要一个更广泛的，更安全的利益平衡。而在欧洲共同体内存在的经济，制度，政治权利集团化的危险，新一轮经济帝国大厦的建设可能会出现。Just as the 21st century requires a more diffused and safer balance of interest in what needs to be an increasingly multilateral global village, there is a risk of economic, institutional and political power being centralized in the European Community, and that a new bout of economic empire building may occur.4 小道的前面躺着一条小河，河面很宽。这次她无论如何也不能冒着迷失方向的风险绕过障碍兜圈子了。她脱下衣服，把它们统统塞进尼龙袋，用手把袋子托到头顶，跨入齐脖子深的冷水里。几分钟后，她从水里爬出来浑身不由自主地打冷颤。可是当她点起一堆小火，暖了暖身子，把衣服穿上后，又信心倍增地上了路。她的体能承受极限正在扩大。The path led straight through a wide stream. She could on longer risk disorientation by circling such obstacles. She took off her clothes and, with her belongings in a nylon bag held above her head, she stepped into the chilling, neck-deep water. Minutes later she emerged, shaking uncontrollably. But after warming herself by a small fire and re-dressing, she set off with increased confidence. The limits of her physical capacity were expanding.5 科学家最近在老鼠体内发现了一种化学变化，这种发现有朝一日也许能够帮助人们开发出控制肥胖的药品。科学家们发现老鼠细胞内有一种感受体，负责调度分配体内的脂肪。当老鼠因生活舒适而增加体重时，这一感受体也能发挥相应的作用。如果人类体内也能有这样一种调节器，或者利用药物达到这一调节的目的，也许就能解决全球范围内越演越烈的肥胖问题了。Scientists have recently discovered a chemical change occurring in mice, which might help in developing new drugs to control obesity someday. Scientists have identified a receptor in mouse cells that controls how fat is used in the body. When a mouse lives an easy life and puts on weight, the
