1.空氣污染 air polution~化學(xué)物質(zhì)chemicals.(記得不算清晰)

補充：車子排放出的氣體會造成空氣污染，提到了combustible engine。有害的化學(xué)物質(zhì)會散播到空氣中，對健康有危險。（這小段沒怎么聽清楚）

因此我們要采取多種的交通工具。還可以通過氫氣等驅(qū)動引擎。還可以裝一個可轉(zhuǎn)換的裝置將氣體轉(zhuǎn)換成電力，蒸汽...（當中順序有點記不清了）

環(huán)保型汽車, 關(guān)鍵詞:轉(zhuǎn)換過濾器, electricity, steam, hazardous（難度指數(shù)較高，需要有背景知識）

1.中醫(yī)(教程篇章)我在高口口試強化班上最后一天復(fù)習(xí)過的文章！勢如破竹one more time...教程P291 “中醫(yī)起源于神農(nóng)氏時代，戰(zhàn)國時期的中醫(yī)理論著作黃帝內(nèi)經(jīng)標志著中國醫(yī)學(xué)獨特的理論體系形成。黃帝內(nèi)經(jīng)仍被視為知道中醫(yī)理論的基礎(chǔ)。中醫(yī)名著神農(nóng)本草集中認為，陰與陽兩者制約，互相作用，消長平衡，相互轉(zhuǎn)換。陰陽平衡是健康的要素，陰陽失衡會影響健康，導(dǎo)致疾病，因此，中醫(yī)十分重視調(diào)節(jié)陰陽以保平衡。

變體版本也要熟悉：

中醫(yī)是我國的傳統(tǒng)醫(yī)學(xué)，起源于6000年前的神農(nóng)氏時代。中醫(yī)學(xué)在長期的發(fā)展過程中，逐漸形成了一套醫(yī)學(xué)原則和觀點。中醫(yī)認為“萬物人為貴”。中醫(yī)師是通過了解人與自然、以及人體各部位之間的種種關(guān)系來診斷病人的疾病。

中醫(yī)有完整的理論體系和臨床治療方法，除了中草藥外還有針灸療法、按摩推拿和氣功療法。中醫(yī)以其獨特的療效和科學(xué)本質(zhì)贏得了全世界的廣泛贊譽。我們在積極發(fā)展中醫(yī)的同時也鼓勵中西醫(yī)結(jié)合診斷和治療疾病。我相信，我國的中醫(yī)研究前程似錦。

還提及兩本書《黃帝內(nèi)經(jīng)》《本草綱目》

2.中小企業(yè)的發(fā)展, 亞洲在世界經(jīng)濟中的作用.small and medium-sized enterprises

2.通過學(xué)習(xí)漢語，他們對這個和自己文化大相徑庭的古老文明產(chǎn)生了濃厚的興趣，而且有機會了解中國的哲學(xué)、藝術(shù)、醫(yī)學(xué)、飲食文化，親身體驗這個文明古國的風采。

3.作為第二文化，中國文化也豐富了他們的生活和世界觀?？梢哉f，這個潮流方興未艾。

越來越多的學(xué)習(xí)漢語的美國人除了對中國菜肴贊不絕口之外，也在嘗試針灸，草藥和武術(shù)。

4.他們也看功夫電影，學(xué)習(xí)東方時裝潮流和手工藝crafts，不知不覺的在日常生活中談及中國的點心，人參、銀杏，烏龍茶等。目前在美國最熱門的中國文化是道家學(xué)說和有著神秘色彩的風水學(xué)。

就中美貿(mào)易而言，互利共贏的經(jīng)貿(mào)關(guān)系給兩國人民帶來了實實在在的經(jīng)濟利益。

今天美國在華投資設(shè)立的企業(yè)已超過4萬家，投資額達到450億美元。

中國商品也成了美國了最喜愛的。

我們可以預(yù)見，中美貿(mào)易摩擦將隨著經(jīng)貿(mào)關(guān)系的深化而凸顯。但是，中美經(jīng)貿(mào)合作的總體發(fā)展是不可逆轉(zhuǎn)的。

漢譯英：

（此題摘自江總書記于一九九九年十月二十二日在英國劍橋大學(xué)的演講）

Passage 1:

中華民族歷來尊重人的尊嚴和價值。還在遙遠的古代，我們的先人就已提出“民為貴”的思想，認為“天生萬物，唯人為貴”，社會的發(fā)展和進步，取決于人的發(fā)展和進步，取決于人的尊嚴的維護和價值的發(fā)揮。今天中國所煥發(fā)出來的巨大活力，是中國人民擁有廣泛自由、民主的生動寫照。

中國確保十三億多人的生存權(quán)和發(fā)展權(quán)，是對世界人權(quán)事業(yè)的重大貢獻。集體人權(quán)與個人人權(quán)、經(jīng)濟文化權(quán)利與公民政治權(quán)利緊密結(jié)合和協(xié)調(diào)發(fā)展，這適合中國國情，是中國人權(quán)事業(yè)發(fā)展的必然道路。

(參考答案)

The Chinese nation has always respected human dignity and value.Even in the ancient days, our ancestors came up with the idea of “people being the most important,” believe that “man is the most valuable among all the things that heaven fosters.” The progress and development of a society hinge on human progress and development and depend on how well human dignity is maintained and how much human value is realized.The immense vitality displayed by China today is a vivid reflection of the broad freedoms and democtatic rights enjoyed by the Chinese people.Chins has a population of over 1.3 billion, and to ensure our people the rights to subsistence and development is in itself a major contribution to the progress of the world human rights cause.Collective and individual human rights should be considered together and their coordinated development should be pursued, and the same considerations should be given to the development of economic and cultural rights on the one hand and of civil and political rights on the other.This is dictated by China’s specific national conditions and therefore, is the only way to progress in human rights cause in Chins

On behalf of all the membership of the United Nations, I hereby reaffirm the role of this international organization.When ti was created more than 60 years ago, the United Nations reflected humanity’s greatest hopes for a just and peaceful global community.It still embodies that dream.We remain the only world institution with the legitinacy and scope that derive from global membership, and a mandate that encompasses development, secutiry and human rights as well as the envoronment.I restate that we are an organization without independent military capability, and we dispose of relatively modest resources in the economic realm.Yet our influence and impact on the world is far greater than many believe to be the case, and often more than we ourselves realize.This influence derives not from any exercise of power, but from the force of the values we represent.Among these values are the maintenance of the world order and the establishment of world harmony.（參考答案）

我謹代表聯(lián)合國所有成員國，在此重申這個國際組織的作用。聯(lián)合國60多年前成立時，反映了人類建立一個公正和平的國際社會的殷切希望。聯(lián)合國至盡仍然代表了這個夢想。我們?nèi)匀皇俏ㄒ痪哂挟a(chǎn)生于會籍普遍性的合法性和規(guī)模，并具有包括發(fā)展、安全和人權(quán)以及環(huán)境在內(nèi)的使命的全球性機構(gòu)。

我重申，這是一個沒有獨立軍事能力的組織，在經(jīng)濟領(lǐng)域也只處理相對不多的資源。然而，我們對世界的影響卻比許多人所認為的要大得多，而且常常比我們自己所意識到的還要多。這種影響不是產(chǎn)生于權(quán)利的行使，而是產(chǎn)生于我們所代表的價值觀念的力量。我們的價值觀；包括維護國際次序，建立和諧世界。

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(nèi)容，在課堂上也講解過。

英譯漢第二篇：領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者和人民的關(guān)系

這是以往不太出現(xiàn)的內(nèi)容，值得之后的考生特別關(guān)注。

漢譯英第一篇：上海菜

口譯教程上有相似話題的內(nèi)容，課堂講義里也有類似關(guān)于飲食的練習(xí)。

漢譯英第二篇：08年抗震救災(zāi)和北京奧運

抗震救災(zāi)話題與事實相結(jié)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(guān)專題，真題也進行過練習(xí)。希望大家有好的發(fā)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(guān)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(xí)過，也作為回家作業(yè)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(yè)最發(fā)達的國家。有美國的兩大汽車巨頭在各機場設(shè)有辦公樓，其他地方城市其他的美國租車公司有設(shè)辦事處。

英譯漢第二篇：economic recovery

主要說最近經(jīng)濟復(fù)蘇，亞洲遙遙領(lǐng)先遠超過歐洲的恢復(fù)速度，特別是中國和印度更是復(fù)蘇的領(lǐng)頭羊。美國的經(jīng)濟有望借復(fù)蘇的勢頭來年恢復(fù)經(jīng)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(qū)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(yè)讓同學(xué)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(tǒng)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(tǒng)文化的內(nèi)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(zhàn)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(wù)洽談此篇出自中級口譯教程 3-3 合資企業(yè)。

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(nèi)容。漢譯英第二篇：中日關(guān)系緊跟時事的節(jié)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(jīng)濟時代，要求年輕人有長遠的眼光，開放的頭腦，善于發(fā)揮自己的潛力。知識經(jīng)濟的特點之一是創(chuàng)新。創(chuàng)新不僅意味著創(chuàng)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(yè)要求大家完成的。漢譯英第二篇：世博與旅游

主要內(nèi)容說世博和旅游歷來是相互結(jié)合，相互促進的。成功舉辦世博會是黨和人民賦予旅游業(yè)的歷史使命和光榮任務(wù)。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(xué)一上來都懵了。其實此段改編自《中級口譯教程》13-1 企業(yè)文化。英譯漢第二篇：global food crisis

現(xiàn)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(yǎng)狀況堪憂。整段難度不大，但同學(xué)收到上一段的打擊，加之這段三個數(shù)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(wǎng)絡(luò)科技的發(fā)展容易引發(fā)青少年犯罪問題。青少年的健康成長需要家庭、學(xué)校和全社會的共同努力。

漢譯英第二篇：中美合作關(guān)系

典型的雙邊關(guān)系話題，套句很多。經(jīng)過訓(xùn)練的同學(xué)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(chǔ)。兩國的建設(shè)性合作關(guān)系符合兩國人民的根本利益，有利于世界的和平、穩(wěn)定和發(fā)展。

總體感受：

口語部分雖不是最關(guān)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(nèi)容記熟且流暢地表達出來就已經(jīng)很好了。進考場前問問自己是不是已經(jīng)把筆記的重要詞組都口頭過了一遍。

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

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

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(xué)口譯，做金領(lǐng)！迎戰(zhàn)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

(B)$25 billion.(C)$30 billion.(D)$35 billion.30.What would be the best title for this passage ?(A)Best Options for Tackling World’s Killer Diseases.(B)Cost-effective Investment in Impoverished Nations.(C)Health Inequality between Developed and Developing Countries.(D)Earth’s Killer Diseases: Tuberculosis, HeartAttak and Malaria...SECTION 3: TRANSLATION TEST(1)(30 minutes)Directions: Translate the following passage into Chinese and write your version in the corrsponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.In a normal recession, the to-do list is clear.Copies of Keynes are dusted off, the Fed lowers interest rates, the president and Congress cut taxes and hike spending.In time, purchasing, production and loans perk up, and Keynes is placed back on the shelf.No larger alterations to the economy are made, because our economy, but for the occasional bump in the road, is fundamentally sound.This has been the drill in every recession since World War II.Republicans and Democrats argue over whose taxes should be cut the most and which projects should be funded, but under public pressure to do something，they usually find some mutually acceptable midpoint and enact a stimulus package.Even in today's hyperpartisan Washington, the odds still favor such a deal.This time, though, don’t expect that to be the end of the story-----because the coming recession will not be normal, and our economy is not fundamentally sound.This time around, the nation will have to craft new versions of some of the reforms that Franklin Roosevelt created to steer the nation out of the Great Depression.SECTION 4: TRANSLATION TEST(2)(30 minutes)Directions: Translate the following passage into English and write your version in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.鐘表上的秒針一下一下地移動，每移動一下就是表示我們的壽命已經(jīng)縮短了一部分。再看看墻上掛著的可以一張張撕下的日歷，每天撕下一張就是表示我們的壽命又縮短了一天。因為時間即生命。

沒有人不愛惜他的生命，但很少人珍視他的時間。如果想在有生之年做一點什么事，學(xué)一點什么學(xué)問，充實自己，幫助別人，使生命成為有意義，不虛此生，那么就不可浪費光陰。這個道理人人都懂，可是很少人能積極不懈地善為利用他的時間。

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

1.Mrs.Jones came to us at the airport.We thought she was the secretary but she turned out to be the president of the company.2.After Susan carefully explained her ideas at the board meeting last week, the directors all voted for the change she's made concerning the proposed project.3.Of the students participating in our university's research project, 73% classified themselves as freshmen and sophomores.4.Originally we had planned to buy a car by the end of last year, but then with the recent fluctuation of the crude oil prices we decided to postpone the purchase.5.Most people I know are interested in the proposed tax reform being debated in the congress because they hope it will lower taxes for them.6.If you're good at managing your own time and energy, it is very likely that you can do well both in your schoolwork and for your career 7.Mr.Paul White, thank you very much for your inquiry, but I feel the position more suits a female applicant.Anyway, I will keep your name on file.8.Is this your best quote? I thought prices will be coming down now given the current situation of financial and economic crisis.9.Last month our manager took a ten-day business trip to Chicago, but he had to stay there for 3 more days as the negotiation turned out to be a tougher one.10.When our children are made confident that they are positive and competent individuals, they will adapt themselves to the changing society and successfully accomplish personal goals.Talks and Conversations

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)

Passage 4(Q23-26)May I have your attention, ladies and gentlemen? 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?

Question 24: How often is the meeting held?

Question 25: What is at the top of the meeting's agenda?

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?

to win clients to make influential contacts to discuss and settle internal disagreements and even to interview potential employees.Some companies always conduct job interviews over lunch.A business lunch usually lasts from one to two and half hours and it often takes place at a restaurant with a pleasant, quiet atmosphere conducive to private discussions.2.As the world population becomes denser, we will feel greater pressure from the expanding number of people.Some experts argue that we are approaching the limit of the number of people the earth can support adequately and they feel we should turn to compulsory birth control.Other authorities feel that if birth control is imposed on the population, the future of mankind will be seriously endangered.They think intelligent people will be more likely to have fewer children, which would bring about a lowering of the level of intelligence.Spot Dictation

TRANSLATION TEST(2)(30 MINUTES)

Direction: Translate the following passage into English and write your version in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.本屆會議將圍繞“新世紀、新挑戰(zhàn)：參與、合作、促進共同繁榮”的主題，審議 5 個方面的議題，以期促進亞太地區(qū)和全球經(jīng)貿(mào)的發(fā)展。

今年的亞太經(jīng)濟貿(mào)易合作組織會議將主要側(cè)重兩個方面：一是加強亞太經(jīng)合組織成員之間的合作，共同應(yīng)對可能出現(xiàn)的經(jīng)濟衰退，重樹信心；二是繼續(xù)推進亞太經(jīng)合組織貿(mào)易投資自由化進程，推動世界貿(mào)易組織盡早開始新一輪談判。

分析：

① 本屆會議將圍繞“新世紀、新挑戰(zhàn)：參與、合作、促進共同繁榮”的主題，審議 5 個方面的議題，以期促進亞太地區(qū)和全球經(jīng)貿(mào)的發(fā)展。

譯文 1 ： This meeting will discuss the topic of “new century, new challenge: participate , cooperate and promote common prosperity covering 5 areas with a view to enhancing the development of economy and trade between the Asian-Pacific region and the rest world.譯文 2 ： This meeting will center round the theme of “Meeting new challenges in the new century: achieving common prosperity through participation and cooperation” under 5 heads with a view to promoting the economic and trade development in the Asia-Pacific region and the world at large.考點： 意譯：“新世紀、新挑戰(zhàn)：參與、合作、促進共同繁榮”如譯文 1 翻譯純粹采取直譯，把字面意思翻譯出來，而譯文 2 把這句話的含義翻譯出來，值得推薦。

轉(zhuǎn)性譯法：動詞 → 名詞 參與 →participation 合作 →cooperation

② 今年的亞太經(jīng)濟貿(mào)易合作組織會議將主要側(cè)重兩個方面：一是加強亞太經(jīng)合組織成員之間的合作，共同應(yīng)對可能出現(xiàn)的經(jīng)濟衰退，重樹信心；二是繼續(xù)推進亞太經(jīng)合組織貿(mào)易投資自由化進程，推動世界貿(mào)易組織盡早開始新一輪談判。

譯文 1 ： The APEC meeting in this year will focus mainly on two aspects: one is on strengthening the cooperation among all the APEC members to cope with the possible economic recession through rebuilding up confidence;the other is on promoting the liberalization of trade and investment of APEC for the start of a new round of negotiations/talks for WTO.譯文 2 ： This year’s APEC meeting will focus on two key missions: one is to strengthen the cooperation among APEC members in dealing with a possible economic slowdown to build up new confidence;the other is to continue to advance the process of APEC trade and invest liberalization and facilitation and urge the WTO to initiate a new round of talks as soon as possible.考點： 增詞譯法：“一是加強” →one is on strengthening，因為前接 focus mainly on，因此增加 on 介詞。

Every spring hundreds of thousands of domestic and foreign businessmen swarm into Shanghai to attend the annual East China Export Commodity Trade Fair.Here, all kinds of goods from Shanghai compete with the goods from other places in China.The advantage of Shanghai lies in its advanced scientific and technological strength, therefore the export of high-tech products should take the lead in increasing Shanghai’s foreign trade and export.Professor Yang Zhenning, a famous physicist, once said, “The high-tech battlefield is the main and the last battlefield for China to overtake the developed countries.” It is not only indispensable in history, but also necessary in the future to develop by way of promoting high-tech trade.98年3月

這所大學(xué)的任務(wù)是培養(yǎng)德智體全面發(fā)展，能熟練運用外語從事外事和文化交流工作的合格人才。本科生分四年制和五年制兩種，學(xué)生畢業(yè)考試及格并且通過論文后，即可獲得學(xué)士學(xué)位。通用語種的學(xué)生，在能熟練使用外語后，還要接受諸如外事翻譯、語言學(xué)、文學(xué)、新聞、國際文化交流等方面的專業(yè)訓(xùn)練。這樣，畢業(yè)生在掌握一門外語之外還須具備上述專業(yè)的基礎(chǔ)知識。

The task of this university is to train qualified personnel for foreign affairs and cultural exchange with foreign countries and teachers for institutions of higher learning, who are morally, intellectually and physically qualified and have a good command of foreign languages.It has a 4-year course and a 5-year course for undergraduates.Those who have passed the graduation examination and have written an acceptable thesis are awarded/given a Bachelor’s degree.Students of commonly used foreign languages, after acquiring the ability to use language efficiently, are intercultural communication, so that the graduates will have a basic knowledge in those fields in addition to their mastery of a foreign language.98年9月

深圳作為全國最早的特區(qū)，與內(nèi)地經(jīng)濟往來極為密切，特別是在香港回歸祖國以后，人員往來大為增加，深圳機場是全國十大機場之一。由于深圳地處亞熱帶，與北方溫差較大，從北方來的旅客，為了適應(yīng)深圳的氣候，走下飛機的第一件大事就是脫掉身上過多過厚的衣服。

深圳機場為方便旅客，設(shè)置了4 間更衣室。室內(nèi)設(shè)備齊全。旅客可以輕松愉快的環(huán)境中更換衣服，整理儀容，給前來迎接的親朋好友留下良好的第一印象。

As the nation’s earliest established special economic zone, Shenzhen has very close economic contacts with the innerland provinces.Especially after the returning of Hongkong to the motherland, the number of passengers coming and leaving Shenzhen is increasing rapidly.Shenzhen Airport claims to be one of the ten largest airports in the country.Because Shenzhen is located in the subtropical zone, there exists quite big temperature difference between the city and northern areas in China.So the passengers from the north are always anxious to take off their overdressed warm clothes for the first important thing to do after landing in order to adapt themselves to the local temperature.For the convenience of the passengers, Shenzhen Airport Administration set up 4 well-furnished changerooms.The passengers can change their clothes, tidy themselves up in the easy and pleasant surroundings, so as to leave a good first impression on the relatives and friends who come to meet them at the airport.99年3月

澳門，南海之濱一顆閃耀的明珠，以她的風采、滄桑和輝煌，更以1999年12月20日這個不同尋常的日子，吸引著全世界的目光。

自古以來，澳門就是中國的領(lǐng)土，中華兒女世世代代在這里繁衍生息。

早在80年代，世紀偉人鄧小平就提出了“一國兩制”的偉大構(gòu)想。1997年7月1日，中華人民共和國恢復(fù)對香港行使主權(quán)。今年，澳門又將徹底結(jié)束外國管治，回到祖國懷抱，這是中華民族的又一件歷史盛事，它標志著中國人民向著祖國統(tǒng)一的偉大目標又邁出了重大的步。澳門的明天一定會更好美好。

Macao, a sparking pearl in the coast of China, catches the world’s attention for her charm, her experiences of various changes and her bright achievements, and moreover, for the unusual date of December 20, 1999.Macao has been the territory of China ever since the ancient times.The Chinese people have been living and working there for generations.Early in the 80s, Mr.Deng Xiaoping, one of the great figures of the century, put forward the bold concept of “One Country, Two Systems”.On July 1, 1997, the People’s Republic of China resumed her sovereignty over Hong Kong.This year, Macao will completely get rid of the foreign regime and return to motherland.This is another great historical event for the Chinese people.It symbolizes another big step for the Chinese people on their way towards the great goal of the country’s reunification.Macao’s future is sure to be even brighter.99年9月

正在建設(shè)之中的浦東國際機場位于長江入?？谀习兜臑l海地帶，占地約32平方公里。根據(jù)上海社會經(jīng)濟發(fā)展對航空業(yè)務(wù)量的需求，浦東國際機場的緊終設(shè)計能力是年旅客客運量8000萬人次，貨運量500萬噸。機場全部建成后，綠化覆蓋率將達到50%以上。浦東國際機場是一扇向天空開啟的大門，是一條與世界聯(lián)系的紐帶。人類即將進入21世紀，人、自然、環(huán)境和建筑必將和諧、持續(xù)發(fā)展。

Pudong International Airport, now under construction, is located on the south bank of the Yangtze(Changjiang)estuary, covering an area of 32 square kilometres.To meet the demands of Shanghai's social and economic development for aviation services, the maximum design capacity of the airport is 80 million passengers and 5 million tons of freight annually.After the completion of the whole airport project, green space will account for over 50% of the area.Puuong International Airport is a gate open to the sky and a link connecting different parts of the world.As the 21st century is coming very near, man, nature, environment and construction will certainly develop in a harmonious and sustained way.00年3月

中華民族歷來愛好自由與和平。中國人始終希望天下太平，希望同各國人民友好相處。中國人民在近代飽受戰(zhàn)爭和侵略的痛苦，更深感自由與和平的珍貴。任何一個國家建設(shè)和發(fā)展，都需要一個和平穩(wěn)定的國際國內(nèi)環(huán)境。任何一個國家和民族的自由，都是一切個人自由的前提和基礎(chǔ)。我們希望各國人民都生活在沒有戰(zhàn)爭和暴力的世界里，希望各國人民都能享有不被人壓迫、歧視和欺凌的自由。

The Chinese people have been a freedom-and-peace-loving nation.They have always hoped for the world to be at peace and the peoples of various countries to co-exist peacefully.Having suffered from wars and foreign aggression in modern times, the Chinese people treasure freedom and peace all the more.Every nation needs a peaceful and stable international and domestic environment for its construction and development.The freedom of a country or nation is the prerequisite and base of the freedom of any individual.We hope that all nations can live in a world free from war and violence and that people from all parts of the world can enjoy freedom without oppression, discrimination, bullying and humiliation.00年9月

中國政府在宣布實行和平統(tǒng)一的方針時，是基于一個前提，即當時的臺灣當局堅持世界上只有一個中國、臺灣是中國的一部分。同時中國政府考慮到美國政府承認了世界上只有一個中國、臺灣是中國的一部分、中華人民共和國政府是中國的唯一合法政府。

中國政府在實行和平統(tǒng)一方針的同時始終表明，以何種方式解決臺灣問題是中國的內(nèi)政，并無義務(wù)承諾放棄使用武力。

The declaration by the Chinese government to implement the policy of peaceful reunification was based on the prerequisite that the then Taiwan authorities insisted that there is only on China in the world and that Taiwan is a part of China.At the same time, the Chinese government took into consideration the fact that the US government recognized that there is only one China in the world, that Taiwan is a part of China and that the Government of the People’s Republic of China is the only legitimate government of China.While implementing the policy of peaceful reunification, the Chinese government has all along made it clear that it is an internal affair of China to decide on what method to use to resolve the Taiwan issue and that we have no obligation to commit ourselves to rule out the use of force.01年3月

據(jù)調(diào)查，我國有40％的青少年除了課本外不看其他書籍。對此，我感到極為震驚。雖然有關(guān)人士聲稱調(diào)查具有科學(xué)性，我仍不敢相信。不過盡管懷疑，事實卻是，越來越多的年輕人在業(yè)余時間已不再讀書，而是看電視、跳舞、打電子游戲機，或者“侃大山”。高爾基說過：“書籍是人類進步的階梯。”眾所周知，書籍是人類智慧的結(jié)晶。盡管現(xiàn)代傳媒（如電視、計算機）在信息的傳播速度上有許多優(yōu)勢，但到目前為止，還沒有哪一種在傳播知識的深度方面能取代書籍。According to a survey, about 40% of our country’s youth do not read any books other than their textbooks.I am shocked at the result.I remain suspicious of the survey, though the people concerned claim it to be scientific.Despite my suspicion, the fact is that more and more young people, instead of reading, spend their spare time watching TV, going to dance parties, playing video games or chitchatting.Gorgy once said:“Books are steps toward human progress.”As we all know, books is a crystallization of human wisdom.Although modern media such as TV and computers enjoy advantages in the speed of information dissemination, so far none of them can replace books in respect of the depth of knowledge being spread.01年9月

本屆會議將圍繞“新世紀、新挑戰(zhàn)：參與、合作、促進共同繁榮”的主題，審議5個方面的議題，以期促進亞太地區(qū)和全球經(jīng)貿(mào)的發(fā)展。

今年的APEC會議將主要側(cè)重兩個方面：一是加強APEC成員之間的合作，共同應(yīng)對可能出現(xiàn)的經(jīng)濟衰退，重樹信心；二是繼續(xù)推進APEC貿(mào)易投資自由化進程，推動WTO盡早開始新一輪談判。

This year's meeting will, centering round the theme of“Meeting new challenges in the new century: achieving common prosperity through participation and cooperation,” review the agenda covering 5 areas with a view to promoting the economic and trade development in the Asia-Pacific region and the world at large.This year's APEC meeting will focus on 2 key missions: one is to strengthen the cooperation among APEC members in dealing with a possible economic slowdown to build up new confidence;the other is to continue to advance the process of APEC trade and investment liberalization and facilitation and urge the WTO to initiate a new round talks as soon as possible.02年3月

我總以為，在中國效率最高的會議要數(shù)學(xué)校召集的家長會。家長會完全符合“廉政建設(shè)”的要求，與會的家長絕不會像參加行業(yè)、單位的一些會議，先看看會議地點是不是設(shè)在風景旅游區(qū)，會后發(fā)不發(fā)紀念品之類，然后方?jīng)Q定是否參加。其他會議都難得準時，惟有家長會絕對正點召開。在家長會上，家長們個個全神貫注地傾聽、記錄，生怕漏掉一點內(nèi)容。不少會議都可列入可開可不開之列，但對于學(xué)校和家長而言，家長會則是必不可少的。

I always believe that the most efficient meeting in China is the parents’ meeting called by the school.The parents’ meeting, is in full conformity with the requirements for the “building of an honest and clean government”.With respect to meetings organized by a certain trade or the unit where one works, the person wants to know whether the venue of a meeting is in a scenic area frequented by tourists and whether gifts of souvenirs will be handed out after the meeting before he decides whether to go or not to go.But for the parents’ meeting, nobody will ever think of that.While other meetings are rarely convened on time, the parents’ meeting invariably starts with punctuality.At the parents’ meeting, every parent listens and takes notes with rapt attention lest he or she might miss anything.For many meetings, it does not really matter whether they are to be held or not, but to the school and the parents, the parents’ meeting is absolutely necessary.4 02年9月

到2007年，上海市人均國內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值預(yù)計將達到7500美元。這一目標的實現(xiàn)，最直接的應(yīng)該是老百姓住得更寬敞、更舒適了。因為從市民的“衣、食、住、行”消費來講，住房是一個重要因素，而且占了大頭。屆時，上海人均住房面積會大幅增加。除此之外，老百姓的服務(wù)性消費，如教育、信息、旅游等消費也會大量增長。用一句話來表述，那便是未來老百姓的生活會更好，那時的老百姓的生活將和中等發(fā)達國家的居民一樣。

The per capita GDP in Shanghai is expected to reach US $7500 by 2007.The common people should benefit most directly from the attainment of this goal.They will live more comfortably in bigger space.Among the basic necessities of life—food, clothing, shelter and transportation—housing is an important element, accounting for a big portion in the money they spend.In 2007, the average per capita living space in Shanghai will increase by a big margin.In addition, the common people’s spending on such services as education, information and traveling will grow substantially.To put it in a nutshell, in the future the common people will live a better life, a life of the same standard as enjoyed by those in the middle-ranking developed countries.03年3月

中國改革開放以來，國民經(jīng)濟年均增長速度達到9.7%。中國已經(jīng)發(fā)展成為一個全球極富吸引力的大市場。世界各國和地區(qū)不少有遠見卓識的企業(yè)家，都將目光投向了中國，投向了西部，并從投資活動中獲得了豐厚的回報。中國加入世貿(mào)組織后，外商參與中國西部開發(fā)的機會越來越多。西部大開發(fā)一定能成為溝通世界各國和中國的一座橋梁，促進中國和世界經(jīng)濟共同發(fā)展，共同繁榮。

Since the adoption of opening and reform policy, China’s annual growth of national economy has reached 9.7%.China has developed into a big market attractive to the world.Numerous/A number of entrepreneurs of foresight around the world have cast their eye to China, especially the west China and gained abundant profit/profitability from investment.After China’s entry into the WTO, there are more and more opportunities for foreign businessmen to join in the development of the West.The Great Western Development is sure to be a bridge between China and the rest world, which promotes/promoting the common development and prosperity of China and the world.03年9月

經(jīng)過二十多年的快速發(fā)展，中國西部地區(qū)已奠定了一定的物質(zhì)技術(shù)基礎(chǔ)，社會保持穩(wěn)定，市場經(jīng)濟體制正在逐步建立和完善，為西部經(jīng)濟持續(xù)快速增長創(chuàng)造了有利的市場環(huán)境。中國政府堅持實行以擴大內(nèi)需為主的發(fā)展方針，并把擴大內(nèi)需與調(diào)整經(jīng)濟結(jié)構(gòu)，推動科技進步，促進對外開放結(jié)合起來。隨著西部大開發(fā)戰(zhàn)略的穩(wěn)步推進，西部地區(qū)的資源優(yōu)勢，經(jīng)濟優(yōu)勢將得到充分發(fā)揮，經(jīng)濟增長的質(zhì)量和水平將進一步提高。

Thanks to the rapid(economic)development in the past 20-plus years, a relatively solid foundation in terms of material wealth and technology was laid in the western region of China.With the society enjoying a rather satisfactory stability, and the market economy system being established and improved on a daily basis, providing a favourable market environment for the western region to maintain the sustained and rapid economic growth.While focusing on its policy of expanding the western region, the Chinese government also attaches rather great importance to the restructuring of the economy, the promotion of the scentific and technological development, the deepening of the opening-up policy as well.With the stable advance in the development of the western region, the advantages of the region in resources and economy will be given full play, thus further improving the quality and standard of the economic growth.04年3月

中華民族歷來珍惜和平。中國的崛起，是和平的崛起，是依靠自己力量來發(fā)展自己。中外關(guān)系中，我們一貫主張以鄰為伴、與人為善，同各國發(fā)展友好合作關(guān)系。

中國現(xiàn)在是、今后相當長時間內(nèi)仍將是一個發(fā)展中國家。中國有13億人口，這是最大的國情。中國國內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值已居全球第六位，但人均水平卻排在第138位。我們還面臨不容忽視的失業(yè)、貧困和發(fā)展不平衡等問題。中國要趕上發(fā)達國家，還需要幾代人、十幾代人的艱辛努力。

The Chinese nation has always cherished peace.China’s rise, an achievement accomplished by our own efforts, symbolizes that peace has risen to the dominating position.In getting along with the foreign countries, we consistently adhere to the policy of making partnership and being friendly to the neighboring countries with an aim to seek a friendly cooperation with them.China is and will continue, in a quite long time, to be a developing country.China has a population of 1.3 billion, which is the most important part in our national conditions.It is then no doubt that China ranks 138th per capita while its GDP totals 6th globally.We are now still facing serious problems that we can’t avoid such as unemployment, poverty, and unbalanced regional development.To catch up with the developed countries, several, even dozens of generations’ efforts are still expected.04年9月

有人把香港說成是“文化沙漠”。實際上，香港有著其獨特的文化氛圍。在電影制作方面，香港名列世界前茅，其流行歌曲在全球華人中有著廣泛的影響，而且還有8所知名的大學(xué)。

這座城市特殊的歷史和地理因素造就了一種多樣化的文化。每年一度由政府主辦的藝術(shù)嘉年華為當?shù)厮囆g(shù)家展示其獨創(chuàng)性提供了一個廣闊的平臺，并鼓勵更多人參與文化藝術(shù)創(chuàng)作，為中國的文華繁榮作出了許多創(chuàng)新和突破。

Hong Kong is recognized by some people as the “cultural desert”.However, as a matter of fact, Hong Kong enjoys its unique cultural settings.In terms of film-making, it ranks among the top in the world and its pop songs have an extensive influence among all the Chinese globally.Moreover, there are also 8 well-known universities in Hong Kong.The diversified culture of Hong Kong is attributed to its special history and location.The art carnival hosted by the government annually has provided a broad stage for the local artists to exhibit their originality and encouraged more people to get involved in the production of cultural and art works, thus making a lot of innovations and breakthroughs for the boom of the Chinese culture.05年9月

中國有句古話：“相知無遠近，萬里尚為鄰”。中國與亞洲各國山水相連，共同鑄就了燦爛的亞洲文明；古老而美麗的“絲綢之路”，譜寫了中歐千年往來的美好篇章。中國與亞歐各國的互利合作正在步入一個全新的階段。中國已成為亞歐和世界經(jīng)濟發(fā)展中的積極力量，我們將堅定走和平發(fā)展的道路，致力于同亞歐各國發(fā)展富有活力和長期穩(wěn)定的全面合作關(guān)系，與亞歐各國相互支持，攜手前進，共創(chuàng)美好的未來。

In China, there is an old saying which goes like this, “Long distance never separates close friends.” A ready link connecting this country and many other ones, like the Silk Road, in Asia and Europe helps a lot in bringing about the splendid civilization in Asia and the frequent exchanges and communication between China and the Continent in the past years.Now, we are going a step further in our cooperation based on mutual benefits, enjoying a brand-new bilateral relation.China, a devoted part in promoting the economic development in the 2 continents, will keep her track on the road of peace and development.A corresponding effort made by this country in building a dynamic and long-term cooperation in all fields across Asia and Europe, together with all the other efforts from the 2 continents, will definitely contribute a big part in making the bright future.06年3月

上海是一座朝氣蓬勃、充滿活力、多姿多彩的國際大都市，改革開放以來，上海變化之大令世人矚目。經(jīng)濟高速發(fā)展，社會秩序穩(wěn)定，人民安居樂業(yè)，呈現(xiàn)出一片繁華氣象。

進入耶魯大學(xué)的校園，看到莘莘學(xué)子青春洋溢的臉龐，呼吸著書香濃郁的空氣，我不由回想起40年前我在北京清華大學(xué)時的美好時光，老師們對我的教誨，同學(xué)們給我的啟發(fā)，我至今仍受用不盡。

耶魯大學(xué)以悠久的發(fā)展歷史、獨特的辦學(xué)風格、卓著的學(xué)術(shù)成就聞名于世。如果時光能夠倒流幾十年，我真希望成為你們中的一員。耶魯大學(xué)校訓(xùn)強調(diào)追求光明和真理，這符合人類進步的法則，也符合每個有志青年的心愿。

Coming to the Yale campus with its distinctive academic flavor, and looking at the eager young faces in the audience, I cannot but recall my great experience studying at Qinghua University in Beijing 40 years ago.I still benefit greatly from the instruction and my interaction with other students.Yale is renowned for its long history, unique way of teaching and excellence in academic pursuit.If time could go back several decades, I would really like to be a student of Yale just like you.Yale's motto “Light and Truth,” which is a calling for human progress, represents the aspiration of every motivated young man and woman.07年3月

中國贏得 2010 年世界博覽會的舉辦權(quán)，靠的是國際社會對中國改革開放的支持和信心。這次博覽會將是自 1851 年在英國倫敦第一次舉辦以來，首次在發(fā)展中國家舉辦的世界博覽會，它表達了全世界人民對中國未來發(fā)展的期望。

2010 年上海世博會的主題是“城市，讓生活更美好?！蔽磥淼某鞘猩钍侨蜿P(guān)注的話題，與每一個國家及其人民息息相關(guān)。第一次以“城市”作為主題的 2010 世界博覽會將吸引全球約 200 個國家和國際組織參與盛會，國內(nèi)外參訪人數(shù)預(yù)計達 7000 萬。

中國堅定不移地走和平發(fā)展道路，是基于中國國情的必然選擇。1840年鴉片戰(zhàn)爭以后的100多年里，中國受盡了列強的欺辱。消除戰(zhàn)爭，實現(xiàn)和平，建設(shè)獨立富強、民生幸福的國家，是近代以來中國人民孜孜以求的奮斗目標。今天的中國雖然取得了巨大的發(fā)展成就，但人口多，底子薄，發(fā)展不平衡，仍然是世界上最大的發(fā)展中國家。推動經(jīng)濟社會發(fā)展，不斷改善人民生活始終是中國的中心任務(wù)。堅持走和平發(fā)展道路，是中國實現(xiàn)國家富強、人民幸福的必由之路。中國人民最需要、最珍愛和平的國際環(huán)境，愿盡自己所能，為推動各國共同發(fā)展作出積極貢獻。

China’s firm stand on peaceful development is only natural, given the country’s unique situation.In the ensuing 100 plus years after the Opium War of 1840, China suffered great humiliation at the hands of the world’s big powers.The Chinese people have, throughout the modern times, yearned and sought for a peaceful, independent, prosperous and happy life free from wars.Despite the tremendous growth we are witnessing in China today, the country is still faced with a large population, a weak economic foundation and rather uneven development.It is still, as it were, the largest developing country in the world.China’s major focus, therefore, is on socio-economic development and continued improvement of people’s livelihood.The only way to achieve prosperity for China and happiness for its people is by sticking to the path of peaceful development.The Chinese people will try their utmost to promote and contribute to common development among nations and, in order to do that, they need and cherish to the highest degree a peaceful international environment.08年9月

據(jù)消息靈通人士透露，今年春節(jié)前，家樂福才與新大新發(fā)生“第一次親密接觸”，其中廣州市政府無疑起了“紅娘”的作用。短短幾個月時間，雙方“情投意合”。外界關(guān)心的是：家樂福到底看中新大新什么地方？

對此，新大新總經(jīng)理何先生沒有作出正面的回應(yīng)，只是籠統(tǒng)地陳述在廣州的百貨業(yè)中新大新有自己獨特的一面。據(jù)何先生透露，這次新大新出資持有新組建的公司35%的股份，家樂福占65%:“這是按照國家有關(guān)部門政策，即中方持股不得少于35%的規(guī)定厘定的”。

According to a well-informed source, before this year’s Spring Festival, Carrefour made its “first intimate contact” with Xindaxin company.Without doubt the Guangzhou Municipal Government served as the “matchmaker”.The two parties “had an affinity for each other” in only a few months.What on earth is Xindaxin’s appeal to Carrefour? It is of great concern to the outsiders / the public.Mr He, general manager of Xindaxin, instead of giving any positive response to this question, just made a general/ambiguous reply that Xindaxin boasts its uniqueness in the department stores industry in Guangzhou.Mr He disclosed that Xindaxin holds 35% of the shares of the newly-established company while Carrefour owns the other 65%: “which is in conformity with the policies of departments concerned, stipulating that the Chinese side must hold no less than 35% of the shares.”

鐘表上的秒針一下一下地移動，每移動一下就是表示我們的壽命已經(jīng)縮短了一部分。再看看墻上掛著的可以一張張撕下的日歷，每天撕下一張就是表示我們的壽命又縮短了一天。

因為時間即生命。沒有人不愛惜他的生命，但很少人珍視他的時間。如果想在有生之年做一點什么事，學(xué)一點什么學(xué)問，充實自己，幫助別人，使生命成為有意義，不虛此生，那么就不可浪費光陰。這個道理人人都懂，可是很少人能積極不懈地善為利用他的時間。

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.09年9月

有兩個大款附庸風 雅，參加一個冷餐會，與會者自然不乏真正的名流學(xué)者。席間，一個學(xué)者與其中的大款甲閑聊，話題不知怎么扯到莎士比亞身上。學(xué)者問大款甲：“先生是否對莎士 比亞最感興趣？”大款甲頓了頓，隨即正色說：“相比之下，還是威士忌合我口味?！边@時，大家都暗自竊笑。大款乙也看出了苗頭，悻悻然走開。在回來的小車 上，大款乙教 訓(xùn)大款甲說：“你真一點都不懂，莎士比亞是飲料，你怎么把它當洋酒了！”

Two big shots attended a buffet reception, trying to pose as lovers of culture, for the participants included some real scholars of distinction.During the reception, a scholar chatted with Tycoon A and somehow the topic shifted to Shakespeare.The scholar asked, “Are you most interested in Shakespeare?” The big shot paused and announced with a severe countenance: “In comparison, whiskey is more to my taste.” Hearing that, all the listeners laughed up their sleeves.Tycoon B saw the straw in the wind and left resentfully.On their way home in the car, Tycoon B lectured Tycoon A: “ How could you be that ignorant!Shakespeare is a beverage, and you are foolish enough to take that as an imported spirit!”

2010年翩然而至，全球24個時區(qū)的萬千鐘聲，此起彼伏，宣告在這人類新千年中，一個10年代的終結(jié)，又是另一個10年代的開始。在開局的10年中，中國經(jīng)濟在前9年連續(xù)9年保持著9%以上的增長。最后一年，雖受國際金融風暴影響，但依然能保持8%的高增長。

中國猶如中流砥柱，力挽狂瀾，使全球目光，再次聚焦于東方。一年多的實踐，終使曙光再現(xiàn)。全人類定能以集體的智慧，攻堅克難，度過難關(guān)，必將是柳暗花明又一村的新局面。

With the approaching of 2010, the ringing of bells in 24 time zones around the globe echoes one after another, announcing the lapse of the first decade in the new millennium and the start of another 10 years.Over the past ten years, China’s economy maintained a successive 9% increase for nine years since the beginning of the 21st century and still a 8% growth in the last year of the past decade, albeit influenced by global financial storm.Functioning like a mainstay that makes vigorous endeavors to turn the tide, China, once again, draws global attraction to the East.A silver lining is emerging again after a year-round practice.As long as all the mankind conquer adversities, override difficulties with collective wisdom, there is bound to be a way out.10年9月

說起上海老城，總會讓人和古老傳統(tǒng)的東西聯(lián)系起來，比如明代的豫園和清代的城隍廟。上海建城有700多年歷史，但最具人文發(fā)展歷史的時期是開埠后的150年間，諸如華洋雜居、石庫門、老字號等等，都發(fā)生在開埠后的上海。

流傳于老城內(nèi)外的民間文化，豐富多彩。著名的“上海老城人物風情畫卷”生動地描繪了上海老城市民的生活百態(tài)。上海老城市歷史文明與現(xiàn)代文明的兼容并蓄，無論上海城市發(fā)展如何日新月異，她仍將記錄著上海城市發(fā)展的歷史華章。

The old town of Shanghai, when it is mentioned, is always associated with the past and the tradition, something such as the Yuyuan Garden in the Ming Dynasty and the Town God’s Temple(or the City God Temple / Chenghuangmiao)in the Qing Dynasty.Despite a history of more than 700 years, it is the 150 years since its opening to foreign trades that enjoyed the most spelendid/ greatest humane development of Shanghai.During that period, scenes appeared such as the co-inhabitation of Chinese foreigners, the building of Shikumen, and the growth of time-honored firms.Various and colorful folk cultures have gained popularity in and out of Shanghai’s old town, which has been proved in the famous “The Painting Scroll of Local Residents in Shanghai’s Old Town”, a vivid depiction of the lives of local residents in every aspect.Despite the ever-changing advances of Shanghai, its old town, an inclusive combination of ancient and modern civilization, will still serve as a glorious chapter in the history of the development of Shanghai city.11年3月

豫園是上海著名的古典園林，已有400多年的歷史?；▓@設(shè)計獨特，具有明清兩代南方的建筑藝術(shù)的風格。園內(nèi)共有40余景，景色自然迷人，亭臺樓閣、假山池塘和諧對稱、協(xié)調(diào)均衡，其布局之精致自古聞名江南。

豫園原為明代一位大官的私家花園，始建于1559年，直到20年后才建成。此后曾幾經(jīng)變遷，屢遭摧殘。所幸的是，從1949年上海解放時，園內(nèi)的主要景點尚完好無損。從1956年開始，豫園經(jīng)過多次修繕，重現(xiàn)其昔日光彩。

The Yuyuan Garden is a renowned classical garden located in Shanghai that enjoys a history of over 400 years.With delicate design, it boasts the architectural style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.40 attractive scenic spots dot the garden, including pavilions, pagodas, ponds and rockeries, with each adding radiance to one another.The Yuyuan Garden tops South China for its delicacy and elegance.The Garden was originally the private garden of a governor in the Ming Dynasty.Its initial construction started in 1559, but it was not completed until two decades later.The Garden was repeated destroyed under vicissitudes;fortunately, its major scenic spots remained intact in 1949 when Shanghai was liberated.The Garden regained its splendor after several renovations starting from 1956.11年9月

越來越多受英文教育的海外華人父母，已經(jīng)認識到孩子在掌握不可或缺的英文的同時，也通曉中文的重要性。中國的崛起，讓他們充分認識到孩子掌握雙語的好處——既能增加他們的就業(yè)機會，也能讓他們接觸和熟悉東西方兩種不同的文化。

這些人對中文的態(tài)度幾乎沒有完全改變。曾幾何時，他們還非常驕傲地宣稱自己只懂英文?，F(xiàn)在，他們已開始積極支持孩子學(xué)習(xí)中文和中國文化，而且還不時走訪中國，欣賞壯觀的自然風光，認識豐富的文化遺產(chǎn)。

An increasing number of English-educated Chinese parents overseas have come to the realization that while English learning is indispensable to their children, it is essential that their kids have a good command of Chinese.China’s rise has fully awakened their awareness of the fact that their kids can benefit from their bilingual ability which can not only enhance their competitiveness in the job market, but also facilitate their exposure to and familiarity with the two different cultures between the East and the West.They have hardly changed their attitudes towards Chinese.At one time they proudly declared that they knew English only.Now, they have begun to give full support to their kids learning Chinese and its culture, and they also make occasional visits to China, where they can enjoy its magnificent natural landscape and get to know its rich cultural heritage.12年3月

吸煙之危害，可謂大矣，其嚴重性是不能低估的。吸煙污染空氣，損害健康，使肺癌發(fā)病率大大增加。為了使各國人民關(guān)注煙草的盛行及預(yù)防吸煙導(dǎo)致的疾病和死亡，世界衛(wèi)生組織已將每年的5月31日定為“世界無煙日”。

癮君子們說，一天飯不吃可以，一個時辰不抽煙就難捱了，不能戒。只要真正意識到吸 煙有百害而無一利，于人于己都是一種禍害，就有可能下決心擺脫煙草的誘惑。戒煙貴在堅持，堅持下去就是收獲。

Smoking does great harm to human and its gravity should not be underestimated.Smoking pollutes air, damages health, and increases the incidence of lung cancer.To arouse the awareness about the prevalence of tobacco in all the countries and to prevent smoking-induced diseases and deaths, the WHO(World Health Organization)has defined May 31st in every year as World No-Tobacco Day.The tobacco addicts say that smoking is impossible to quit because they could do without meals in a day but would feel tortured without tobacco in two hours.However, when one realizes that smoking is harmful in many ways but beneficial in no way and that it is a curse to others as well as to he himself, he will be determined to resist the temptation of tobacco.To quit smoking requires persistence and so long as one persists, he’ll be rewarded.12年9月

近代以來，亞洲經(jīng)歷了曲折和艱難的發(fā)展歷程。亞洲人們?yōu)楦淖冏约旱拿\，始終以不屈的意志和艱辛的奮斗開辟前進道路。今天，人們所看到的亞洲發(fā)展成就，是勤勞智慧的亞洲人民不屈不撓、鍥而不舍奮斗的結(jié)果。

亞洲人民深知，世界上沒有放之四海而皆準的發(fā)展模式，也沒有一成不變的發(fā)展道路，亞洲人民勇于變革創(chuàng)新，不斷開拓進取，探索和開辟適應(yīng)時代潮流，符合自身實際的發(fā)展道路，為經(jīng)濟社會發(fā)展打開了廣闊前景。

In modern times, Asia experienced twists and turns in its development.To change their destiny, the people of Asia have been forging ahead in an indomitable spirit and with hard struggle.Asia's development achievements today are the result of the persistent efforts of the industrious and talented Asian people.The people of Asia are fully aware that there is no ready model or unchanging path of development that is universally applicable.They never shy away from reform and innovation.Instead, they are committed to exploring and finding development paths that are in line with the trend of the times and their own situations, and have opened up bright prospects for economic and social development.13年3月

朝氣蓬勃，充滿活力，豐富多彩的上海是現(xiàn)代中國的縮影。雖然上海的文化遺跡不能與北京媲美，但是上海迷人的城市風貌，風格各異的萬國建筑為這座城市注入了無限的魅力。今日之上海，已經(jīng)成為享譽中外的國際大都市。

漫步在這座日新月異的現(xiàn)代大都市里，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)許多精彩的歷史亮點，隱現(xiàn)在眾多摩天大樓背后的是上海發(fā)展變化的軌跡。它們記述了上海自十九世紀末開埠以來，尤其是新中國成立以后，是如何迅猛發(fā)展的。

Shanghai is a dynamic, diverse and stimulating city the very epitome of modern China.Though Shanghai cannot rival Beijing in cultural heritage, its varied architectural styles and cosmopolitan feel give it a charm of its own.Today's Shanghai has become a world-famous international metropolis.A walk through this booming city reveals many glimpses of its colorful past.Hidden amongst the skyscrapers are remains of the original Shanghai.They keep on showing how Shanghai has been developing fast and enormously since its opening as a commercial port in the late 19th century, especially after the founding of new China.13年9月

自古以來，我國各民族人民勞動、生息、繁衍在祖國的土地上，各民族組之間建立了緊密的政治經(jīng)濟文化聯(lián)系，早在兩千多年前就形成了幅員遼闊的統(tǒng)一國家。悠久的中華文化，成為維系民族團結(jié)和國家統(tǒng)一的牢固紐帶。

我們的先人歷來把獨立自主作為立國之本。中國作為人類文明發(fā)祥地之一，在幾千年的歷史進程中，文化傳統(tǒng)始終沒有中斷。近代中國雖屢遭列強欺凌，國勢衰敗，但經(jīng)過全民族的百年抗爭，又以巨人的姿態(tài)重新站立起來。

From ancient times, our people of all ethnic groups have labored, lived, multiplied on this land, where closely-knitted political, economic and cultural links have been established.As early as two thousand years ago, we have built a unified nation with a vast territory.The long-standing Chinese cultures become a strong bond for ethnic harmony and national unity.Our ancestors were dedicated to the proposition of maintaining independence.As one of the cradles of human civilizations，China has all along maintained its cultural tradition without letup in the history of several thousand years.In modern times, the frequent bullying and humiliation by imperialist powers once weakened China.However, after a hundred year's struggle of the entire Chinese nation, China has stood up again as a giant.14年3月

我們認識到，改革是一場深刻的革命，涉及重大利益關(guān)系調(diào)整，涉及各方面體制機制完 善。中國改革已進入攻堅期和深水區(qū)。這是因為，當前改革需要解決的問題格外艱巨，都是難啃的硬骨頭，這個時候就要一鼓作氣，瞻前顧后、畏葸不前不僅不能前進，而且可能前功盡棄。

中國是一個大國，決不能在根本性問題上出現(xiàn)顛覆性錯誤，一旦出現(xiàn)就無法挽回、無法彌補。我們的立場是膽子要大、步子要穩(wěn)，既要大膽探索、勇于開拓，也要穩(wěn) 妥審慎、三思而后行。我們要堅持改革開放正確方向，敢于啃硬骨頭，敢于涉險灘，敢于向積存多年的頑瘴痼疾開刀，切實做到改革不停頓、開放不止步。

參考譯文：

We perceive the reform as a profound revolution, involving adjustment of relationships among major stakeholders and improvement of multiple systems and mechanisms.China’s reform has entered a phase of toughness and hardness.Confronted with the extraordinary difficulty in addressing problems in reforms, we need to gather all the courage and strength since hesitation will lead to no progress and even the deprivation of what we have accomplished.When it comes to fundamental issues, China, as a country of profound influences, can't afford any subversive mistake, which would be irretrievable upon emerging.We should keep both courageous exploration and prudent actions based on the standpoint of bravery and steady progress.Marching in the correct direction of the reform and opening-up, we should dare to challenge hard nuts, tough situations and longstanding problems so as to achieve the persistence and eternity of the reform and opening-up.14年9月

一天王安經(jīng)過一棵大樹時，突然有一只小麻雀掉在地上。他決定把它帶回去喂養(yǎng)。走到家門口，突然想起媽媽不允許他在家里養(yǎng)小動物，他悄悄地把小麻雀放在門后，急忙走進屋去，在他的 哀求下媽媽破例答應(yīng)了兒子。

王安興沖沖跑到門后，不料小麻雀不見了，一只黑貓在擦拭嘴巴。王安為此傷心了很久。從此，他吸取了一個很大的教訓(xùn)：只要自己認定的事情，決不可優(yōu)柔寡斷，猶豫不決自然可以減少犯錯的可能性，但也會因此而失去成功的機遇。

One day Wang An passed under a big tree when a little sparrow fell down, so he decided to take it back home for care.At the doorstep, considering the fact that his mother would not allow keeping pets, he hid the sparrow behind the door secretly and walked in hastily.Unexpectedly, his mother yielded to his imploration.Wang An rushed back in rapture, only to find the sparrow gone and a black cat rubbing its mouth.This incident clouded him for a long time, from which he drew a lesson that there’s no room for hesitation when it comes to a determined plan.Indecision may keep you away from some mistakes, but more likely from the chances of success.15年9月

博鰲，十多年前還是個鮮為人知的小漁村，現(xiàn)在已成為可以共商亞洲發(fā)展之計的大平臺。博鰲是在中國和亞洲的開放發(fā)展中快速成長起來的，它的開放和變化表明了中國與亞洲，亞洲與世界的聯(lián)系日益密切。

Boao, a rarely-known fishing village just one decade ago, has now evolved into a splendid platform for planning out the Asian blueprint.Maturing amid the advancement of China and Asia at large, its openness and progress sheds light upon the increasingly intimate connection between China and Asia, as well as that between Asia and the world.With its footing in Asia, outlook towards the global and the accommodation for various opinions, Boao presents a worldwide panorama and an inclusion of all-aspect merits.Boao Asia Forum plays a vital role in grouping common grounds, amplifying Asia voice and boosting Asia cooperation, thus constituting one of the most influential economic forums in the world.16年3月

大劇院位于市中心人民廣場，建筑風格新穎別致，造型優(yōu)美，是本市的一個標志性建筑。大劇院獨特的建筑風格，融匯了東西方的文化韻味。白色弧形拱頂和具有光感的玻璃幕墻有機結(jié)合，在燈光的烘托下，宛如一個水晶般的宮殿。大劇院大堂的主要色調(diào)為白色，高雅而圣潔。地面采用舉世罕見的希臘水晶白大理石，圖案形似琴鍵，白色巨型的大理石柱和兩邊的臺階極富節(jié)奏感，讓人一走進大堂就仿佛置身于一個音樂的世界。

The Shanghai Grand Theater, located at the People’s Square in the city center, is original and unique in architectural style and graceful in shape, presenting a landmark in Shanghai.The unique architecture is an integration of the cultural appeal of the East and West.The Grand Theater is just like a crystal palace when the lights set off a harmonious entity of the white arc-shaped roof and the photosensitive glass curtain walls.The lobby of the Grand Theater, with the white color as its main tone, symbolizes elegance and purity.The floor is paved with a rare white marble known as the “Greek Crystal”.The design is of the shape of piano keys, and the giant white marble pillars and the stairs on both sides are imbued with a strong sense of rhythm, making people feel as if they were in a world of music the moment they step into the lobby.16年9月

春節(jié)是我國民間最隆重、最熱鬧的一個傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日。春節(jié)時，家家戶戶都要做充足的準備。節(jié)前十天左右，人們就開始忙碌著采購年貨，為小孩子們添置新衣新帽，準備過年時穿。另外，節(jié)前人們會在家門口貼上紅紙寫成的春聯(lián)，屋里張貼色彩鮮艷、寓意吉祥的年畫，窗戶上貼著窗花，門前掛上大紅燈籠或貼“?！?字?！案！弊诌€可以倒貼，路人一念福倒了，也就意味著福氣到了。

Spring Festival is the most solemn traditional festival in China bustling with noise and excitement.During the Spring Festival, everything was in a state of preparedness for every family.About ten days before the festival, people began busy preparing special purchases, including new clothes and shoes for the children to embrace the new year.What’s more, people begin decorating their rooms featuring an atmosphere of rejoicing and festivity, which include Spring Festival couplets on red paper pasted on the door panels, red paper-cuttings on window glass and brightly colored New Year paintings with auspicious meanings on the wall, as well as red lanterns or the Chinese character ‘Fu’(meaning blessing or happiness)on the front door.The Chinese character ‘Fu’ can be pasted normally or upside down, signifying good futune because in Chinese the “reversed fu” is homophonic with “fu comes”, both being pronounced as “fudaole.”
