3.Therefore,____________________________________.19.中秋节为每年的农历(lunarcalendar)八月十五日，是中国仅次于春节的第二大传统节日。这一天是家人团聚的日子，月亮是中秋节庆祝的主题。全家人聚在一起品尝美味的月饼，观赏象征丰裕、和谐和幸运的圆月。中秋节也被认为是一个丰收的节日，因为秋季是收获的季节，各种水果、蔬菜和粮食作物都在此时成熟。许多动人的传说也与中秋节有关，如“嫦娥奔月”(Chang'e'sflighttothemoon)。20.(四)考试Directions:Forthispartyouareallowed30minutestowriteacompositiononthetopicMyViewsonExaminations.Youshouldwriteatleast120wordsandbaseyourcompositionontheoutlinebelow:1．大学都用考试来衡量学生的成绩2．考生可能带来的副作用3．我对考试的看法21.

Advertisement41.在旧中国，几乎不用为婚姻和家庭生活担忧。中国的传统文化并不赞成离婚，离过婚的妇女也会被人瞧不起。然而，时代不断在变化，大众的观念也随之变化。人们不再为离婚感到羞耻。在今天的中国，每天大约有4500对夫妻分手，并且这个数字还在攀升。专家称，离婚率上升在意料之中，因为中国正经历着剧烈的经济和社会变革。42.Thesmallmountainvillage______(被大雪封住达一个多月).43.筷子

筷子(chopsticks)是中国古人发明的一种具有鲜明民族特色的进食工具(tableware)，是反映中国饮食文化特色的重要组成部分。中国人使用筷子的历史可追溯到商代，距今已有三千多年。筷子可谓是中国国粹(quintessence)，既轻巧又灵活，在世界各国餐具中独树一帜，被西方人誉为“东方的文明”。凡是使用过筷子的人，不论中国人或是外国人，都因其使用方便、物美价廉而赞叹不绝。44.Thecourtruling__________________(剥夺了他的政治权利).45.Themotherwarnedherlittleboynotto______onthefloor,whichshouldbekeptsmooth.A.scratchB.graspC.desertD.absorb46.Thatwasnotthefirsttimehehadbetrayedus.Ithinkit'shightime______(我们对他采取有力措施).47.Lifeisarollercoaster,youhaveyourupsanddowns__________(只要不掉下来).48.Theyovercameallthedifficultiesand______(提前两个月完工).49.Therearenow______________________________(有比以前先进得多的方法)forstudyingthesepicturesthanthereoncewere.50.Myelderbrotherissimilarintemper______myfatherallthetime.A.toB.likeC.withD.as卷I参考答案一.历年考点试题黑钻版1.参考答案：A[听力原文]M:WhatwasitlikegrowingupinNewYork%BronxDistrict?Wasitsafe?W:Tomeitwas,itwasallIknew.MymomwouldsendmetotheshopandI'dgoandbuythingswhenIwasabout8yearsold.Q:Whatdowelearnfromtheconversation?[简析]对话中，男士问女士在BronxDistrict生活是否安全。女士则回答说非常安全，并说自己在8岁时妈妈就让她自己去买东西，言下之意就是说她所居住的区域很安全，否则妈妈不会让她独自去买东西的。B)中主语错误，偷换了概念。2.参考答案：B[解析]他常在这里；真奇怪，你从没见过他。[题解]本题看似近义词辨析，实乃考查固定句型：it'sstrange(that)…“真奇怪……”。unique“惟一的，独特的，独一无二的；极不寻常的；无与伦比的”；rare“稀有的，罕见的，冷僻的；珍奇的，出类拔萃的；(空气等)稀薄的；(肉)煎得嫩的”；peculiar“奇怪的，古怪的；特有的，独具的，独特的”。3.参考答案：asyoungpeopledoinyourcountry。此题主要考查as引导状语从句，及从句主语和主句主语一样时，用do代替。4.参考答案：D[解析]希望、目标、恐惧、愿望在男人与女人、穷人与富人之间是不同的。[题解]近义动词辨析：slter“改变”；shift“移动”；transfer“转移，变成”；vary“不同，有区别”，根据句意，[D]正确。5.参考答案：[范文]

Foreignlanguagelearningisofvitalimportancetocross-culturecommunication.Thus,hewhochoosestheForeignLanguageDepartmentgainsacompetitiveedge.6.参考答案：don'texposeyoureyestothesun[考点]①否定祈使句；②“暴露”expose。7.参考答案：C[解析]逻辑关系题：因果。因为没有受过正式的训练，所以技术水平不高。答案选[C]Consequently“因而，因此”，为表示因果关系的副词。[A]Previously“先前，以前”、[B]Subsequently“后来，随后”和[D]Successively“继续地，连接着”不符合句子的逻辑关系。[句意]大多数计算机使用者从没受过正式的键盘训练，因此他们键盘技巧没有效率。8.参考答案：shesurvivedtheaircrash9.参考答案：C题意是：收获季节正在临近，因此我们需要______天气预报。[C)accurate“准确的，正确无误的”，指因谨慎等原因而避免了误差，能够严格符合标准或事实，强调准确性，符合题意。[A]precise“精确的”，用于人，含有讲究、刻板的意味；[B]definite“明确的，确定的”，指界限分明、毫不含混；[D]exact“准确的，精确的”，强调各细节均与事实、标准等完全相符、不差分毫。因此，这二项都不符合题意。10.参考答案：buttofindamorefavorableclimate[解析]“不是做某事而是做某事”一般用not(do)…but(to)do…表达。如果but之前有行为动词do，则要省略to，本句中的did是助动词，所以but后要加to。“宜人的气候”用favorableclimate表达。

[点睛]注意这里的but是介词，其后常跟不定式作宾语。不定式是否带to的判定方法是：如果but之前有行为动词do，则but之后不带to。11.参考答案：ConfuciusInstituteisaninstituteofeducationandculturalcommunicationestablishedbyChinaallovertheworld.ItsaimistopromoteChineselanguageandspreadChineseculture.ThemostimportanttaskofConfuciusInstituteistoprovidestandardtextbooksandaformalchanneltolearnChineseforlearnersallovertheworld.ThefirstConfuciusInstituteopenedin2004inSeoul,SouthKorea.Atpresent,ithasbeenestablishedin106countries.ConfuciusInstitutehasgreatlypromotedtheexchangeandintegrationofculturesbetweenChinaandtherestoftheworld.1．第1句的主干是“孔子学院是机构”；宾语“机构”的修饰成分有两个——“中国在世界各地设立的”和“教育和文化交流(的)”，其中后者是对性质的说明，故可译为介词短语ofeducationandculturalcommunication，作后置定语；而第一个修饰成分中具有动词“设立”，故可考虑译为过去分词短语establishedby…，作为后置定语修饰“机构”。

2．在第2句中，可将“目的”译作句子主语，用动词不定式作句子表语，避免句子头重脚轻。

3．第3句较长，其主干结构为“最重要的工作是提供教材和渠道”；可使用动词不定式toprovide...作句子表语；“汉语学习”也可译作动词不定式tolearnChinese，作formalchannel的后置定语。

4．第4句中的两个分句逻辑主语有所不同，分别是“首家孔子学院”及“孔子学院”，可考虑译为两个独立的句子。其中，“遍布106个国家”可译为被动语态beestablishedin106countries。

5．“有力地”可译为greatly，用于修饰“推动(promote)”。12.参考答案：for题意为：为满足对炼油设备不断增长的需求，公司将更多地生产这种设备。demand(需求)与for连用，表示“对…之需求”。13.参考答案：KungFuiscommonlyknownasChinesemartialarts.TheoriginofChinesemartialartscanbetracedbacktotheneedsofself-defense,huntingandmilitarytraininginancientChina.ItisoneofthetraditionalsportsinChinathatboththeyoungandtheelderlypractice.IthasgraduallyevolvedintoauniqueelementofChineseculture.AsaChinesenationaltreasure.KungFuhashundredsofdifferentstylesandisthemostwidelypracticedmartialartintheworld.Somestyleshaveimitatedanimals'movementswhilesomeothershavebeeninspiredbyChinesephilosophies,mythologyandlegends.功夫是中国武术的俗称：该句可能难在“俗称”的翻译上，该词在四级词汇中似乎没有对应词汇，这种情况之下，考生可以采取变通的方式翻译一下，“俗称”即“大家都知道的”，因此可以翻译为becommonlyknownas，该短语是大家所熟悉的，翻译时应掌握这种转译的技巧。

2．中国武术的起源……军事训练：“追溯到”不宜直译为datebackto，因为datebackto后面一般接表示具体时间的词，而此处“追溯到”的宾语是“自卫的需要、狩猎活动以及古代中国的军事训练”，因此应使用另外一种英文表达，即betracedbackto；“自卫”翻译为self-defense；“狩猎活动”用hunting一词表达即可，因为hunting即“狩猎，狩猎活动”之意，故此处应省译“活动”二字；“军事训练”翻译为militarytraining即可。

3．它是中国传统体育运动的一种，年轻人和老年人都练：本句由两个并列分句构成，根据英语的表达习惯，可以将第二个中文分句翻译为定语从句thatboththeyoungandtheelderlypractice，修饰traditionalsports(传统运动)；“练习……运动”对应的英文是practice...sports。

4．它已逐渐演变成了中国文化的独特元素：“逐渐”翻译为gradually；“演变成了”翻译为hasevolvedinto；“独特元素”翻译为auniqueelement。

5．作为中国的国宝……武术形式：“作为中国的国宝”翻译为asaChinesenationaltreasure；“风格”翻译为styles即可；“练得最多的”即“练习最广泛的”，故翻译为themostwidelypracticed，属于翻译中的“转译”现象。

6．有些风格模仿了……启发：该句前后两个并列分句具有对比的意味，因此可以用表示对比的并列连词while连接；“模仿了动物的动作”翻译为haveimitatedanimals'movements，注意“模仿”需表达为imitate；“受到了中国哲学思想、神话和传说的启发”的核心意思就是“受到……的启发”，应表达为beinspiredby；“哲学思想”“神话”和“传说”分别对应philosophies，mythology，legends，平时应注意相关词汇的积累。14.参考答案：D[解析]形容词辨析

inherent“内在的，固有的，生来就有的”；overwhelming“势不可挡的，压倒的，巨大的”；expanding“扩张的；膨胀的”；infectious“传染的，有感染力的”。[译文]医生对学生们说传染病就是一种会在人们中间相互传播的疾病。15.参考答案：hemusthavestudiedlastnight[解析]表示对过去某一动作或行为的猜测需要用musthavedone这一结构。16.参考答案：Cmanagetodosth．“设法得以……，(经过困难)终于”，根据题意，应选C。A)triedtodosth．“试图”；B)succeeded要求后接介词in；D)endeavored相当“tried”的用法，作“试图，竭力”解。17.参考答案：strengthentherelationshipbetweentwopeople根据本句结构，可以看出要翻译部分为动词短语。动词strengthen的意思是“巩固，加强”，“巩固关系”应译为strengthentherelationship。本句意为“与婚姻不同的是，友谊没有仪式来加强两人的关系”。18.参考答案：[范文与点评]

[思路]第一段主题句意思是：从上个世纪初以来，电已成为现代生活不可或缺的一个组成部分。以下各句紧扣不可或缺的作用，选举了工农业生产、日常生活等方面的典型例子来论证，并以一句总结，重申该观点。

第二段首句“假如没有电”，本段可视为第一段的一个反面论证，举例时应尽量避免和第一段重复。

第三段首句是：因此，……。本段自然会谈到节约能源问题，此处可联系现实生活中世界上一些国家出现的能源危机来论述。19.参考答案：Celebratedonthe15thdayofthe8thmonthofthelunarcalendar,Mid-AutumnFestivalisanimportanttraditionalfestivalinChina,nextonlytoSpringFestival.Itisadayoffamilyreunion.Themoonisthethemeofcelebrations.Familymembersgettogethertotastedeliciousmooncakesandenjoythefullmoon—asymbolofabundance,harmonyandluck.Mid-AutumnFestivalisalsoconsideredasaharvestfestival,becauseautumnisaseasonofharvestwhenvariousfruits,vegetablesandcropsareripe.ManytouchinglegendsarealsoassociatedwithMid-AutumnFestival,suchas"Chang'e'sflighttothemoon".[解析]1．第1句由两个短句组成，两句的逻辑主语相同，都是“中秋节”，故可将其中一个分句译成非谓语动词形式；“仅次于春节”在中文里为定语成分，起形容词的作用，翻译时可译作nextonlyto...，作补语。

2．第2句中的两个短句各自的逻辑主语不同，对此有两种处理方法：可将其分别译为两个独立句子，或用定语从句对原文进行重新整合，如可译成Mid-AutumnFestival,whosethemeofcelebrationsismoon,isadayof...。

3．第3句有三个谓语动词，“聚”、“品尝”和“观赏”。可将“聚”译作谓语，“品尝”和“观赏”则译为并列不定式；“圆月”的修饰成分“象征丰裕、和谐和幸运的”较长，可将其译成定语从句(whichsymbolizes...)，或译成同位语成分，译为asymbolof...，前面加破折号。

4．第4句“因为……”后的内容译成原因状语从句，“各种水果、蔬菜和粮食作物都在此时成熟”可译为用关系副词when引导的定语从句，对“收获的季节(aseasonofharvest)”进行补充说明。20.参考答案：[范文]

2．第3句若逐字对译为Theobviousreasonisthatthepublictransportisconvenient，则重复使用is，显得啰嗦，故将后半部分处理成以“便利”为核心词的名词短语结构，表达为theconvenienceofthepublictransport，句子结构简洁顺畅。

3．第4句“最重要的原因是他们出于对安全的忧虑”直译为Themostimportantreasonis...，则主语较长，为避免出现头重脚轻的情况，可将safetyconcern用作句子主语，同时能起到强调作用。

4．最后一句中的“将自行车道及机动车道分隔开”补充说明“标识”的情况，可用现在分词短语separatingbicyclelanesfromcarlanes来表达。40.参考答案：
