第一篇：全國高校口譯大賽俄語樣題

下面是一段談話。內容涉及：一位曾擔任世博志愿者的俄羅斯學生對世博會的組織情況以及對俄羅斯館的評價。請聽完一個話輪后將俄語交替傳譯成漢語。(181詞)

-это город, который больше всего нравится детям.///

參考譯文：

--您好，您如何評價上海世博會的組織水平？有哪些優點和缺點？

--上海世博會是水平相當高的一次博覽會。首先，必須說，中國給我們、參觀者、工作人員提供的服務是高水準的。世博園本身，還有里面都非常干凈整潔。到處都有小商店和餐廳。///

其次，世博會的安保水平也非常高：入口處有持槍的警衛檢查每一位游客，總共需要過三道安檢，任何金屬器皿、液體、甚至打火機都不可能帶進去。世博園區也有警衛。唯一的缺憾是天氣。但這與世博會沒任何關系。天很熱，很悶。///

--眾所周知，俄羅斯從1992年就沒修建過場館，而今年建造了這么漂亮的場館。您對它是怎么評價的？

--當然，我們為此感到驕傲。俄羅斯館的確是最好的，最大的，也是最有意 思、內容最豐富的場館之一。它很好地反映了俄羅斯組織者想給參觀者展示的理念：最好的城市是孩子們最喜歡的城市。///

下面是胡錦濤主席在“金磚國家領導人第三次會晤聯合記者招待會”上的致辭節選，致辭中談到金磚國家對當前形勢的看法以及對未來的規劃。請將漢語交替傳譯為俄語。(427詞)

今天上午我和羅塞夫總統、梅德韋杰夫總統、辛格總理、祖馬總統舉行了會晤，就加強金磚國家合作深入交換了意見，達成廣泛共識。我們一致認為，在世界多極化、經濟全球化深入發展的大背景下，大力加強國際交流合作，改革和完善全球經濟治理，增加新興市場國家的發言權和代表性，有利于實現世界的持久和平、共同繁榮。///

金磚國家為促進世界經濟復蘇做出了積極貢獻，將繼續推動世界經濟強勁、可持續、平衡增長。我們決定繼續加強在國際經濟金融和發展領域的對話、協調、合作，挖掘經貿、衛生、文化領域的合作潛力。這次會晤通過的成果文件《三亞宣言》，反映了各位領導人對國際經濟金融和發展等領域重大事務的共識，并對未來合作進行了規劃。///

金磚國家加強對話與合作，是時代的要求，符合各成員國和國際社會共同利益。我們堅信，金磚國家合作伙伴關系將不斷加強，合作領域將日益拓寬。我們決定2012年在印度舉行下一次會晤。最后，我再一次感謝羅塞夫總統、梅德韋杰夫總統、辛格總理、祖馬總統為本次會晤成功所做出的貢獻。謝謝大家。///

參考譯文

Укрепление диалога и сотрудничества между странами БРИКС--требование времени.Это отвечает интересам как стран-членов БРИКС , так и всего мирового сообщества.Мы уверены в том, что партнерские отношения сотрудничества между странами БРИКС будут укрепляться, сферы сотрудничества будут расширяться, а содержание станет более богатым.Мы решили провести следующий саммит в 2012-ом году в Индии.В заключение хочу ещ? раз поблагодарить президента Дилму Руссефф, президента Дмитрия Медведева, премьер-министра Манмохана Сингха и президента Джейкоба Зуму за их усилия и вклад в успешное проведение этого саммита.Спасибо за внимание!///

問題Ⅲ 聴解

次の短文を聞いて、質問に答えなさい。短文は２回繰り返し、質問は１回だけ流します。質問を聞いてから20秒以內に答えなさい。メモを取ってもいいです。

最近、近所の花屋が閉店しました。30年以上も「町の花屋さん」として愛著されてきた店です。この店がオープンしたのは、わたしがまだ小學校に入る前でした。わたしにとって、店の思い出はそのまま子どものころの思い出と重なります。家族の誕生日や家にお客さんが來るときなどには、母と一緒にこの店で花を買っていました。

小學校を卒業するときには、こんなことがありました。クラス全員でお金を出し合い、擔任の先生に花束をおくることになりました。「お禮の気持ちを表すために、見たこともないほど大きいのを贈ろう」とわたしたちは話し合いました。しかし、小學生のお小遣いの中集まったお金は少しだけでした。それで、わたしたちはどきどきしながら、「大好きな先生に上げるから、できるだけ大きい花束を作ってください」とお願いしました。おじさんは嫌な顔もしないで、特別大きなバラの花束を作ってくれました。

問１最近、この店がどうなりましたか？

閉店しました。

問２ 筆者は小さい頃、どんな時にこの店を利用していましたか？

家族の誕生日や家にお客さんが來るときなどには、この店を利用していました。

問３ 筆者は小學校を卒業する時、擔任の先生に何を贈りましたか？

小學生のお小遣いから集めました。

このあいだの地震、かなり揺れて怖かったね。

上次的地震震得很厲害，真嚇人啊。

地震が來たときのために、何かしとかなくちゃと思ったんだけど。

我想，為了對地震有所防備，該做點什么。

実際にどういうことをすればいいのかなあ？

實際該做些什么才好呢？

やっぱり、怖いのは家具が倒れることだから、本棚とか背の高い家具があったら、壁に固定したほうがいいよ。

還是家具倒下來可怕，如果有書架或者是高的家具，最好固定在墻上。

あー、でもうちの家具、皆背が低いから、それは大丈夫かな？

是嘛，不過我家里的家具都矮，那沒有關系吧？

そっか。あ、それから避難用のセットはある？

是嗎？另外，你家有沒有避難用的常備品。

すぐ持ち出せるように、水や食べ物を入れた袋は必ず用意しといたほうがいいって、テレビで言ってたよ。

電視上說：最好是準備好裝了水和食物的袋子，隨時都能拿出來用。

那或許不錯，但是，他家還有個小男孩，還是帶點蛋糕比較好吧。

11月14日上午的中口口語話題：

如何解決大城市的交通擁堵問題。

英譯漢第一篇：美國的旅游和交通

口譯教程上有一篇很相似的內容，在課堂上也講解過。

英譯漢第二篇：領導者和人民的關系

這是以往不太出現的內容，值得之后的考生特別關注。

漢譯英第一篇：上海菜

口譯教程上有相似話題的內容，課堂講義里也有類似關于飲食的練習。

漢譯英第二篇：08年抗震救災和北京奧運

抗震救災話題與事實相結合，口譯考試從來不拒絕熱點。北京奧運在課堂講義里有相關專題，真題也進行過練習。希望大家有好的發揮。

11月14日下午的中口口語話題：

The high-speed rail in china。又是當前的熱點話題。還沒考的童鞋們關注了啊。

英譯漢第一篇：car rental services in USA

此篇出自中級口譯教程 4-1行在美國。在課堂上練習過，也作為回家作業做過。說的是去美國旅行的一些建議：不要買車而是租車。因為美國是世界上租車業最發達的國家。有美國的兩大汽車巨頭在各機場設有辦公樓，其他地方城市其他的美國租車公司有設辦事處。

英譯漢第二篇：economic recovery

主要說最近經濟復蘇，亞洲遙遙領先遠超過歐洲的恢復速度，特別是中國和印度更是復蘇的領頭羊。美國的經濟有望借復蘇的勢頭來年恢復經濟，但還存在一些潛在的風險。

漢譯英第一篇：京河高科技園區簡介

此篇出自中級口譯教程 2-4 參觀訪問。其中涉及到“走馬觀花”這樣的四字格，“背靠渤海”這樣地理方位的描述。雖然在課堂上作為回家作業讓同學做過，但沒有充分準備的話，依然會覺得難度較大。漢譯英第二篇：上海世博會

上下午的考題一對比，大家讀出些什么訊息了么？上午和下午都統一考到了美國交通和旅行的狀況。記得五月份的某一次二階段考試，上下午都考到了中國傳統文化的內容。也許是巧合，但每一次巧合背后會有一定的道理。正在備戰的聰明的你們，知道怎么做了？

11月21日中級口譯口試

英譯漢第一篇：商務洽談此篇出自中級口譯教程 3-3 合資企業。

英譯漢第二篇：志愿者活動看來命題者深受“小白菜”們的影響。

漢譯英第一篇：來滬工作

此篇出自中級口譯教程 3-1 歡迎光臨。涉及reception and ceremonial speech的內容。漢譯英第二篇：中日關系緊跟時事的節拍，值得后面的考生注意。

11月28日上午的口語題：

Competition: a good thing or a bad thing?

英譯漢第一篇： the differences in work ethics between the Chinese and Americans.改編自《中級口譯教程》3-4 文化差異

英譯漢第二篇：knowledge-based economy

難度較大。講的是知識經濟時代，要求年輕人有長遠的眼光，開放的頭腦，善于發揮自己的潛力。知識經濟的特點之一是創新。創新不僅意味著創造知識，而且要運用這些知識。

漢譯英第一篇：吸引外資

改編自《中級口譯教程》2-4 參觀訪問。在課堂講義的第一單元后面作為回家作業要求大家完成的。漢譯英第二篇：世博與旅游

主要內容說世博和旅游歷來是相互結合，相互促進的。成功舉辦世博會是黨和人民賦予旅游業的歷史使命和光榮任務。世博近期還是熱點話題。上幾周的考試也考過。

11月28日下午口試：

先給了一段文章，大意是 One Foundation Report from Beijing Normal University on philanthropy and charitable course in China.話題是 Should there be a minimum for billionaires’ donations?英譯漢第一篇：entrepreneurial culture

整段難度非常大。很多同學一上來都懵了。其實此段改編自《中級口譯教程》13-1 企業文化。英譯漢第二篇：global food crisis

現在全球糧食危機嚴重，超乎我們的想象。商品價格飆漲，糧食價格高。貧困人群尤其是兒童營養狀況堪憂。整段難度不大，但同學收到上一段的打擊，加之這段三個數字的口譯，總體不太理想。

漢譯英第一篇：如何教育青少年

典型的青少年教育話題，難度一般。一方面父母期望過高，另一方面網絡科技的發展容易引發青少年犯罪問題。青少年的健康成長需要家庭、學校和全社會的共同努力。

漢譯英第二篇：中美合作關系

典型的雙邊關系話題，套句很多。經過訓練的同學一定能順利通過。主要講中美兩國是具有影響力的國家。兩國有廣泛的共同利益和合作基礎。兩國的建設性合作關系符合兩國人民的根本利益，有利于世界的和平、穩定和發展。

總體感受：

口語部分雖不是最關鍵的，但良好的intonation以及流利度會給考官極好的印象。后面的口譯打分自然就會有偏向，也許不及格的句子會偏向及格。

得教程者得天下。尤其是英譯漢第一段基本都來自教程。而順利拿到英譯漢第一段是對士氣的很大鼓舞。把講過的內容記熟且流暢地表達出來就已經很好了。進考場前問問自己是不是已經把筆記的重要詞組都口頭過了一遍。

時事需關注，出題有時候有滯后效應。比如世博還是考了。上幾周還考到08奧運和抗震救災。關注時事，同時善于思考，多開口討論。

(2)SECTION 2: STUDY SKILLS(45 minutes)Directions: In this section, you wiIl read several passages.Each passage is followed by several questions based on its content.You are to choose ONE best answer,(A),(B),(C)or(D), to each question.Answer all the questions following each passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in that passage and write the letter of the answer you have chosen in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.Questions 1--5 I came across an old country guide the other day.It listed all the tradesmen in each village in my part of the country,and it was impressive to see the great variety of services which were available on one's own doorstep in the late Victorian countryside.Nowadays a superficial traveler in rural Eng1and might conclude that the only village tradesmen still flourishing were either selling frozen food to the inhabitants or selling antiques to visitors.Nevertheless, this would really be a false impression.Admittedly there has been a contraction of village commerce, bul its vigor is still remarkable.Our local grocer's shop, for example, is actually expanding in spite of the competition from supermarkets in the nearest town.Women sensibly prefer to go there and exchange the local news whi1e doing their shopping, instead of

queueing up anonymously at a supermarket.And the proprietor knows well that persona1 service has a substantial cash value.His Prices may be a bit higher than those in the town, bu he will deliver anything at any time.His assistants think nothing of bicycling down the village street in their lunch hour to take a piece of cheese to an old age pensioner who sent her order by word of mouth with a friend who happened to be passing.The more affluent customers telephone their shopping lists and the goods are on their doorsteps within an hour.They have only to hint at a fancy for some commodity outside the usual stock and the grocer a red-faced figure, instantly obtains it for them..The village gains from this sort of enterprise, of course.But I also find it satisfactory because a village shop offers one of the few ways in which a modest individualist can still get along in the world without attaching himself to the big battalions of industry or commerce.Most of the village shopkeepers I know, at any rate, are decidedly individualist in their ways.For example, our shoemaker is a formidable figure: a thick-set, irritable man whom children treat with marked respect, knowing that an ill-judged word can provoke an angry eruption at any time.He stares with contempt at the pairs of cheap, mass-produced shoes taken to him for repair: has it come to this, he seems to be saying, that he, a craftsman, should have to waste his skills upon such trash? But we all know he will in fact do excellent work upon them.And he makes beautiful shoes for those who can afford such luxury.1.The services available in villages nowadays are normally_________.(A)fewer but still very active(B)less successful than earlier but managing to survive(C)active in providing food for the village and tourists(D)surprisingly energetic considering the little demand for them 2.The local grocer’s shop is expanding even though________.(A)town shops are more attractive(B)town shops are larger and less well-known(C)people like to shop where they are less well-known(D)people get extra service in townshops 3.How do the village grocer’s assistants feel about delivering goods?(A)They tend to forget it.(B)They will not consider it.(C)They take it for granted.(D)It does not seem worth their while 4.Another aspect of personal service available in the village shop is that_________.(A)there is a wide range of goos available(B)goods not in stock can be obtained whenever they are needed(C)special attention is given to the needs of wealthier customers

(D)goods are always restocked before they run out 5.In what way is the village shoemaker a “formidable figure”?

(A)He seems to pay little attention to public opinion.(B)He refuses to mend cheap,mass-produced shoes.(C)He has a very rough temper.(D)He has very high standards of workmanship.Questions 6--10 Drivers on the Basingstoke by-pass used to have their attention diverted by a sign that read—A MOMENT'S INATTENTION CAUSES ACCIDENTS.This self-defeating warning has now been removed, but its message is still very much to the point.Almost anyting can cause an accident.Apart from momentary inattention, it might be a minor miscalculation, a sudden fit of coughing, a bop on the head with a teddy-bear from a child in the back seat, an argument with the wife, fog, falling asleep at the wheel, bad eyesight, a glaring sun, ice, rain, wind, or snow—a1l these can make the difference between a tragic hit and a lucky miss.Although human error plays its part, it is by no means the only cause of accidends.There must be some cause other than simple human error.Road construction plays its part: researchers have found that it is not at the obvious danger spot—sharp corners, cross-roads, narrow lanes—that accidents happen.It is on those roads where there are subtle visual traps, unexpected changes in the shape or surface of the.road, or even insufficient or badly-placed signs.Wherever there is a 'black spot', it means that something is seriously wrong with the road.Why else did the careless driving of so many come out at that particular spot? What the law requires when you have an accident There are, firstly the legal formalities of exchanging names and addresses with others involved in an accident and, in certain cases, informing the police.However, you are required by law to stop after an accident only if: l Somebody other than yourself in or outside your car has been injured.2 A vehicle not your own has been damaged.3 Any horse, cow,donkey,sheep, or dog has been injured.It has been said that if a driver continues unaware of causing injury he must be acquitted.But the courts are wary of that excuse.Furthermore, the driver himself must wait at the scene;it is not enough for him to leave his chauffeur or a friend to attend to the boring formalities while he goes off on more important business.If you have been involved in an accident and have stopped, you must give your name, address, and registration number to anyone who has a good reason for requesting it;this means anyone affected by the accident.If these formalities are complied with it is not necessary to wait for the arrival of the police.It is，however, often wise to do so.The police are expert at drawing plans, taking measurements and photographs and gathering other evidence.In your absence the police could be given a biased story against you;and you yourself migh wam to point out certain features of the accident to the police.6.A MOMENT'S INATTENTION CAUSES ACCIDENTS'(para.l)is a self defeating Warning because______.(A)it will make a driver wait at the scene(B)it will distract the driver's attention(C)it is too difficult to understand(D)it is too long to be read by drivers 7.According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?(A)After an accident you have to give your name to anyone who asks for it.(B)Drivers on the Basingstoke by-pass used to ignore the sign.(C)Road construction problems can be a major cause of accidents.(D)A 'black spot' is a part of the road where there are no signs.8.'Subtle visual traps'(para.3)are ______.(A)places where the police hide in order to trap motorists(B)parts of the road which are deceptive to the driver's eye

(C)danger spots such as sharp corners and cross-roads(D)places where there are man road-signs 9.As required by the law, you must stop after an accident, if ______.(A)you have been injured by somebody.(B)your car has been damaged.(C)you have injured somebody else(D)you have witnessed the accident l 0.After an accident it is recommended that you wait for the police because _________.(A)it is against the law to drive off(B)they have to examine your licence and insurance certificate(C)they have to noto the position of your car(D)somebody may give them a false account of the accident Questions 11--15 Just as word oil scarcity is already causing intemational conflicts, so will the scarcity of water reach a point where wars will break out.The statistics on water are already scary.Already well over l billion people suffer from water shortages and 30 countries get more than a third of their water from outside their

borders—an obvious source of disputes and instability especially as the climate changes.The whole of the sub-Saharan Africa, most of South Asia and western South America are most at risk.The reason: the rapid melting of glaciers due to global warning.At the meeting of the coalition of 27 Intemaional charities last month, Gareth Thomas, minister of Intenatonal Development of the British government, wrote to prime minister Gordon Brown demanding action to ensure fresh water to 1.1 billion people with poor supplies.”If we do not act now, the reality is that water supplies may become the subject of international conflict in the years ahead.We need to invest now to prevent us having to pay that price in the future“, Thomas said.The department warned that two-thirds of theword's population will live in water-stressed countries by 2025.The coalition of charities has appealed for a global effort to bring running water to the developing world and supply sanitation to a further 2.6 billion people.It said that international investment is needed now to prevent competition for water to destabilize communities and escalate into conflicts.Tackling the water and sanitation crisis is essential if the Millennium Development Goal Call to Action is to be a success.Otherwise, progress on health, education, and environment sustainability will be undermined.Each year 443 million school days are lost globally to diarrhea and 1.8 million children die from these diseases.In fact, it is often not realized tha investing in sanitation and water brillgs the greatest public health gains, more than any other single development intervention and delivers enormous economic

gains.Already, some Asian countries have put tackling these issues at the forefront of theirdevelopment efforts.The Millennium Development Goals aim to halve the proportion of people without access to safe drinking water by 20l5.To achieve that urgent action needs to be taken.There is no doubt that climate change is potentially the most important factor affecting water shor tage.This, compounded with a growing and increasingly urbanized global population will put pressure on food and water.For a temperature rise of 2°C, which is likely to happen by 2050, there would be a catastrophic 2 to 3 billion people suffering from water stress.11.What does the author think is primarily responsible for water shortages in the world ?(A)Climate chance.(B)Border dispute.(C)World competition.(D)Political instability 12.According to Gareth Thomas, _______ is the price we have to pay for water shortage if we do not take immediate action.(A)sanitation crisis(B)intemational conflict(C)global warming(D)over-urbanization 13.What can the coalition of charities do to prevent competition for water ?(A)Appealing for international investment.(B)Bringing running water to the developing world.(C)Supplying sanitation to billions of water-stressed people.(D)Enhancing world environment sustainability 13.The Millennium Development Goals aim to_______ in the near future.(A)tackle the water and sanitation crisis(B)yield economic gains as well as public health gains(C)mak progress on health, education and environment sustainability(D)provide more people with clean drinking water 15.According to the passage, what will add to water shortage ?(A)Oil scarcity.(B)A drop in temperature(C)A growing population.(D)Reduced food supply Questions 16.-20 Parenting was never a piece of cake in any age, but probably the greatest source of headache for parents today in Japan is the ubiquitous cellphone.Today, 96 percent of senior high school students and 58 percent of junior high school students have cellphones.Even among primary school children, 3l percent have them.By enabling youngsters to stay connected with their parents at all times, these gadgets help to keep children safe.For the kids, they are fun toys, too, that let them text to or chat with their pals whenever they wat, play Intemet games, and enjoy blogging for their own profile and diary purposes.But terrible dangers lurk beneath all that fun and convenience.Every year about l,000 children become involved in rape and other crimes through dating service sites.Violent and obscene images are only a couple of clicks away.On gakkoura saito, or so-called unofficial school websites where kids can post whatever they want, anyone can fall victim to brutal ''verbal mob lynching” by their peers.Amid today's urgent need to address these problems, the government’s Meeting on Education Rebuilding has issued a report.In response to the Prime Minister's recent comments---“I carmot think of one good reason for(letting youngsters)have a cellphone“ and ”I would like everyone to discuss whether cellphones are really necessary:“----the report recommended that ”parents, guardians, schools and all parties concerned should cooperate among themselves, so that elementary school pupils and junior high school students do not have a cellphone unless there is a compelling reason for them to do so.“ But since many parents believe in the necessity of cellphones as a safety tool, it is unrealistic to expect everyone to do away with them.Rather, it would make more sense for guardians, schools and cellphone companies to consider, from their respective standpoints,how cellphones should be used by children.We suggest that parents sit down with their offspring and talk about their “houserules”for cellphone use.For instance, sct the hours allowed, so the kids won't be texting to their friends late into the night, remind them never to give away personal information online, and so on..But there are limits to what individual families can do, and this is where we also suggest that schools should educate their pupils on the dangers of cellphone use.One way to go about this, for instance, may be for each class to set its own rules on sending e-mail messages.16.The word ”ubiquitous“(para.l)is closest in meaning to ________.(A)updated(B)sophisticated(C)prevalent(D)obsolete 17.Many parents let their kids have cellphones because they ________.(A)want their kids to keep up with the IT World(B)can't think of anything better for their kids to have fun(C)don't want their kids to miss 'what other kids have(D)believe cellphones endble them to stay connected 18.Which of the following is NOT the potential risk kids may face when using cellphones?(A)Involvement in rape-related crime

(B)Exposure to violent and obscene images(C)Falling victim to brutal curses.(D)Being tracked down by unofficial school websites.19.The report issued by the government’s Meeting on Education Rebuilding______.(A)recommended minimizing the use of cellphones among kids(B)suggested setting “house rules” for cellphone use

(C)urged parents to remind their children about ce1lphone use(D)pressed schools to educate their pupils on the dangers of cellphone use 20.What is the main idea of the passage?(A)Parents neglect to protect their kids from cellphones.(B)Parenting with cellphones is a source of headache.(C)Cellphones should be banned from campus.(D)Kids need lessons on the uses of cellphones Question 21--25 Extract I

A stylish dining room with cream walls and curtains and black carpet as perfect foil to an eclectic array of furniture.Many of the pieces are classics of their particular era, and demonstrate how old and new designs can be happily mixed together Thc prototype chair in the foreground has yet to prove its staying power and was thought up by the flat's occupant.He is pictured in his living room which has the same decorative theme and is linked to the dining room by a high Medieval-styled archway where was once a redundant and uninspiring fireplace.Extract 2 Old bathrooms often contain a great deal of ugly pipework in need of disguising.This can either be done by boxing in the exposed pipes, or by fitting wood paneling over them.As wood paneling can be secured over almost anyting---including oid ceramic tiles and chipped walls---is an effective way of disguising pipework as well as being an attractive form of decoration.The paneling can be vertical, horizontal or diagonal.An alternative way to approach the problem of exposed pipes is to actually make them a feature of the room by picking the pipework out in bright strong colours.Extract 3 Cooking takes second place in this charming room which, with its deep armchairs, is more of a sitting room than a kitohen, and th6 ntw RaybUm stove as a good choice, as it blends in well with the old brick and beamed fireplace.There are no fitted units or built-in appliances, so all food preparation is done at the big farmbouse table in the foreground;and the china, pots and pans have been deliberately left on show to make an attractive display.What about the kitchen sink? It's hidden away behind an archway which leads into a small scullery.Here there's a second cooker and---in the best farmhouse tradition---a huge walk-in larder for all food storage.2l.Why is the colour of the carpet described in Extract l a particular advantage?(A)It livens up the colour in an otherwise dull room.(B)It provides a contrast to the furniture.(C)It blends in with the tones of the furniture.(D)It gives the room a classical style.22.What is the purpose of the archway described in Extract 1 ?(A)To hide an unattractive fireplace.(B)To give the room an exotic eastem style.(C)To join the dining room with the sitting room(D)To make room for the unusual seating arrangements.23.Extract 2 is probably taken from ________.(A)an architect's blueprint

(B)a plumber’s manual

(C)a home renovation magazine(D)an advertisement for new bathrooms 24.Extracts 2 and 3 deal with _________.(A)old and classic furniture(B)attractive colour schemes(C)cheap improvement schemes(D)home decoration 25.Compared with Extract l the room described in Extract 3 appears to _______.(A)be more comfortable(B)be more colourful(C)contain more furniture(D)posspss a greater variety of style Questions26--30,.Large parts of the world have not enjoyed the remarkale global progress in health conditions that have taken place over the past century.Indeed, millions of deaths in impoverished nations are avoidable with prevention and treatment

options that the rich world already uses.This year, l0 million children will die in low-and middle-income countries.If child death rates were the same as those in developed countries this figuer would be lower than 1 million.Conversely, if child death rates were those of rich countries just 100 years ago, the figure would be 30 million.Today's tools for improving health are so powerful and inexpensive that health conditions could be reasonably good even in poor countries if policy makers spent even relatively little in the right places.Recent research for the Copeghagen Consensus idenifies several highly cost-effective options that would tackle some of the planet's most urgent health problems.The most promising investment is in tuberculosis treatment.Some 90 percent of the l.6 million tuberculosis deaths in 2003 occurred in low-and middle-income countries.Because tuberculosis affects working-age people, it can be a trigger of household poverty.The comerstone of control is prompt treatment using first-line drugs, which doesn't require a sophisticated health system.Spending $l billion on tuberculosis treatment in a year would save l million lives.Because good health accompanies higher levels of national economic welfare in the long run, the economic benefits are worth $30 billion.The second most cost-effective investment is tackling hewt disease.Heart disease migh not seem like a pressing issue for poor nations, but it represents more than a quarter of their death toll.Measures to reduce risk factors other than smoking--high intake or saturated animal fat, obesity, binge drinking of alcohol, physical inactivity , and low fruit and vegetable consumption--have had little success.Treating acute heart attacks with inexpensive drugs is，however, cost-effective.Spending $200 million could avert several hundred thousand deaths, yielding benefits that are 25 times higher than costs.The third option is prevention and treatment of malaria.A billion dollars would expand the provision of insecticide-treated bed-nets and facilitate provision of highly effective treatment.This would save more than a million child deaths and produce economic benefits worth $20 billion.The fourth altermative for policymakers is to focus on child health initiatives.The best measures are familiar ones expanding immunization coverage, promoting breasfeeding, increasing the use of simple and cheap treatments for diarrhea and childhood pneumonia, and so on.Even if the costs of all these initiatives were two or three times higher than we estimate, these efforts would still provide amazing opportunities to reduce health inequality and do good in the world.26.Over the past century, the child death rates hatve _________.(A)climbed steadily in impoverished countries(B)dropped remarkably in developed countries(C)fluctuated wildly in low-incoine countries(D)remained stable in middle-income countries 27.The most effective investment is in the treatment for ________.(A)tuberculosis

(B)heart disease(C)malaria(D)diarrhea 28.All of the following could be the contributing factors to heart disease EXCETP________.(A)heavy smoking(B)binge drinking(C)saturated animal fat intake(D)vegetable consumption 29.According to the author, if $ l billion were invested in the prevention and treatment of heart discase, whih of the following economic benefits would be produced?(A)$20 billion.學口譯，做金領！迎戰9月口譯考試 2009年春季“上海外語口譯”筆試查分公告 中高級口譯備考必看的歷年真題免費下載

You might think that hamburgers were invented in the United States, but that is not totally true.These round, flat cakes or patties actually came from Germany in the middle of the 19th century.They were brought to the United

States by German immigrants who came from the city of Hamburg.That is why their name was Hamburger Stake.However, people in other places claim that they invented the hamburger.Perhaps we'll never have a clear answer.But there is no question that the hamburger was a great hit.Why? Perhaps because at that time, industry was growing and a kind of fast, practical and cheap food was needed for workers.The hamburger became even more popular in the 1920s when the first chain of fast food restaurants was started.This chain was called ”White Castle“.It served tiny hamburgers that were sold for only 5 cents each.Then, in the 1930s there came the drive-in restaurant where customers were served in their cars by waiters in uniform.And the hamburger was one of the most popular menu items.By now, the hamburger was ready to conquer the world.And this happened with McDonald's, which was actually a hot dog stand at first.But by the early 1950s the hot dog was replaced by the hamburger.McDonald's and other fast food restaurants spring up around the world throughout the rest of the 20th century.McDonald's alone has sold 12 hamburgers for every person in the world.The importance of the hamburger to U.S.culture remains significant.About 60% of all sandwiches that are eaten are hamburgers.According to some sources, 7% of current workers in the Untied States had their first job at McDonald's.But the face of the hamburger is changing according to the times.Nowadays it is possible to buy a chicken burger, a turkey burger, a fish burger or a veggie burger.Statements

Passage one(Q11-14)W：What are you laughing about? M: I just saw the silliest advertisement on TV for German soups.It's said our products are home-made with the freshest vegetables and fruits.Then a scene in the factory showed that products were prepared and packed by the most sophisticated machinery.W: And I am sure that the word NATURAL was put on the jars and cans of the products.I think the stupidest advertisements are those that imply that you are one of a kind.If you buy the product, you will be a very special person.Now you will be just like every other one of the 20 million people who bought it.M: That's really silly.But to me, the dumbest of them all is when advertisers put a celebrity on TV to talk about a particular brand of soap or about a particular car.I bet that the celebrity's never used the product before they got the job of appearing in the commercial.W: Yeah!But most of these commercials work and people remember the product.M: I agree, here we are talking about ads we've seen, aren't we? We are all influenced by those celebrities and brand names.W: I think teenagers are specially vulnerable.Advertisers try to get teenagers used to a brand because they know that in later years, the teenagers will stick to that particular product of theirs.Question 11: What in the advertisement has made the man laugh? Question 12: When some ads imply that you are one of a kind, what does that mean? Question 13: Why does the advertiser put a celebrity on TV to talk about a particular product? Question 14: According to the woman, what will teenagers do if they are used to a brand? Passage two(Q15-18)Many of you may have heard of ”jetlag", which is a condition of sleep disorders resulting from rapid travel over time zones such as on a jet plane.The symptoms of jetlag can be quite varied and may include: loss of appetite, nausea, headache, fatigue, insomnia or even mild depression.Here are few tips for you to avoid jetlag or cope if you are stricken by the condition.First adjust your biological rhythm several days before your departure.And develop a plan

to start switching to the time zone of your destination.For instance, if you will be flying from New York to Paris where it is 6 hours later, get up one hour earlier for a couple of days, then two hours earlier, then three hours earlier.I would try to at least get half way to a new time zone.Turn lights on during daytime in your destination and off during the night time.Second, during the time of your adjustment and especially during the flight, drink plenty of water.If you are not a big water fan, drink some other fluid that is not high in sugar, carbonation or caffeine.Avoid junk food, salty foods, caffeine and alcohol on the plane.Of course I say that, but I always have a couple of drinks during the flight, if you do that, just be sure to drink as much water between drinks as possible.Thirdly, when you arrive in your destination, try to resist the urge to nap during day time, get outside during the daylight hours, even if it's just to sit in a café and relax.Try to get a good night's sleep for the first couple nights.The key is to reset your body's natural clock and to get enough rest.Finally when you return home, use some of the same tactics above to return to your previous time zone.Q15.What's the speaker's definition of jetlag? Q16.What's the difference of the time zones between New York and Paris? Q17.What does the speaker recommend if you do not want to drink much water during the flight? Q18.According to the speaker, what should you try to do once you arrive at the destination? Passage 3(Q19-22)

Since the International club meets only once every semester for this special event, the first thing on our agenda is to have the secretary read the minutes of the last meeting.So when I finish this opening speech, the secretary will read the minutes of our meeting for the last semester.And then we'll go through our annual treasurer's report and decide whether it can be accepted or not.At the top of our agenda, and I'm sure in everyone's mind, is the International Display Week.It has been proposed for discussion.I was chairman of the African club, and now as chairman of the International club, I know more than anyone else the importance of such a display week.Let me explain.There are ten foreign clubs here representing the foreign students on our campus.The purpose of these clubs is, first of all, to get the students from the same countries together, so we won't get too homesick, and so we can help each other over the rough spots.And secondly, so that the American students can join the club of their interest and learn about our culture as we learn theirs.Now, about the display.Some of you old hands will have to help me out, as there was so much going on I can't remember at all.Let me see.There are the Scottish folk dance and Irish one, too.We'll team up with the folk music club and recruit anyone who can sew to help make costumes.Of course, each group will set up a booth decorated with pictures and things of interest in their respective countries, and everyone will wear his national costume.Question 23: Who is the man?

M: Yes, I like it.Because we are a real community.We've got comfortable common rooms and bars.We arrange dances and parties.We've got clubs, theater groups, choirs and so on.And we've got an orchestra.I played the drums in it.By the way, how about your university days, Betty?

F: I rent a house with two other girls in the middle of the city about then minutes walk from the university.The house is falling to pieces.It is damp and there is no proper heating.M: That sounds awful.I couldn't work in a place like yours.The district is poor and could almost be classed as a slum.F: I don't think so.We live among real people who treat us as real people.We've got an electrician living next door, who is always coming in and mending our cooker and electric fires.We could try to get into one of the halls of the residents.But we prefer to be independent.It's nice to belong to the city and to do things outside the university.M: What sort of things do you do outside the university? M: Well, there is a group of us who go and help in a home for handicapped children.And I think in the city bar choir we get on well with the local people, not like you in that suburban district.W: Well, I like history.And my university is one of the best universities for that subject.Besides, it is an ancient city with a lot of historical relics and sightseeing spots.If you can drop by by any chance, I can show you around.F: You bet.27.Where do the man's family live? 28.What is typical of the American Campus System?

平常的經濟蕭條一旦來臨，大家都明確應該馬上著手做哪些事情：重新翻開塵封已久的凱恩斯的著作，聯邦政府調低利息率，總統和國會開始減稅，增加財政支出。用不了多久，市場上購銷兩旺，生產線生機勃勃，貸款扶搖而上，于是乎，凱恩斯的書又回了書架。不需要對經濟體制做重大的改革，要知道我們的經濟固然偶爾會有一點磕磕碰碰，從根本上說還是健康的。第二次世界大戰以后，每次蕭條一來，我們都這樣如法炮制。

關于哪個階層應該減稅最多，哪些計劃可以得到政府資金援助，共和黨人和民主黨人一直都爭論不休。不過，公眾輿論自然會要求他們有所作為，因此他們也往往能找到雙方都可接受的中間路線，共同推動一個經濟刺激的一攬子計劃。就算在今天的華盛頓，兩黨意見空前分歧，我們依然相信，兩黨都能接受的計劃最終一定會出臺。然而這次，我們不能指望事情就能就此了結--因為這一次到來的蕭條非比尋常，我們的經濟從根本上說也已經不健康。這一

Our life is shortened by every tick of the second hand of the clock.Each page peeled away from the wall calendar marks a bygone day.Time is life, while life is cherished by everybody, but time, by few.How can we achieve something in our brief life? To learn some knowledge!To replenish ourselves!To help those in need!To add significance to our life!Time should not be squandered if we want to make our life meaningful(to get a lot out of our life).This principle is accepted by all, but wisely observed by very few.
