十年专八翻译真题附答案

答案

Being hasty and at leisure are two quite distinct lifestyles. But in the real world, people have to frequently shuttle between these

two lifestyles, sometimes not sure whether they are

“

at ease

”

or

“

in a rush

”

.

For example, we are enjoying our holidays in the resort

while

suddenly

we

receive

phone

calls

from

the

boss

who

tells

us

there

are

some

troubles

with

our

customers

and

work--so

at

this

moment

the

modern,

convenient

and

advanced

device

shows

its

vicious

and

gloomy

features--and

we

lose

all

our

interest.

The

subsequent leisure is the mere showy for we are in a restless and anxious state of mind.

英译汉原文

When flying over Nepal, it's easy to soar in your imagination and pretend you're tiny-a butterfly - and drifting above one

of

those

three-dimensional

topographical

maps

architects

use,

the

circling

contour

lines

replaced

by

the

terraced

rice

paddies

that

surround each high ridge.

Nepal is a small country, and from the windows of our plane floating eastward at 12,000 feet, one can see

clearly the brilliant white mirage of the high Himalayas thirty miles of the left window. Out the right window, the view is of three or four

high terraced ridges giving sudden way to the plains of India beyond. Three were few roads visible below, most transportation in Nepal

being by foot along ancient trails that connect and bind the country together. There is also a network of dirt airstrips, which was fortunate

for me, as I had no time for the two-and-a-half week trek to my destination. I was in a flight to the local airport.

友好关系将不复存在。每个

Friends

Friends

can

not

be

Otherwise

the

harmony

balance will be broken, and the friendship will also be nonexistent any more. Everyone hopes to have his own private space, and if too

casual among friends, it is easy to invade this piece of restricted areas, which will lead to the conflict, resulting in alienation. It may be a

small matter to be rude to friends; however, it is likely to plant the devastating seeds. The best way to keep the close relationship between

friends is to keep contacts with restraint, and do not bother each other.

英译汉

I thought that it was a Sunday morning in May; that it was Easter Sunday, and as yet very early in the morning. I

was standing, as it seemed to me, at the door of my own cottage. Right before me lay the very scene which could really be commanded

from that situation, but exalted, as was usual, and solemnized by the power of dreams. There were the same mountains, and

the same

lovely valley at their feet; but the mountains were raised to a more than Alpine height, and there was interspace far larger between them

of meadows and forest lawns; the hedges were rich with white roses; and no living creature was to be seen, excepting that in the green

church-yard there were cattle tranquilly reposing upon the verdant graves, and particularly round about the grave of a child whom I had

tenderly loved, just as I had really beheld them, a little before sunrise, in the same summer, when that child died.

我想那是五月的一个周日的早晨；那天是复活节，一个大清早上。我站在自家小屋的门口。就 在我的面前展现出了那么一番

景色，从我那个位置其实能够尽收眼底，可是梦里的感觉往 往如此，由于梦幻的力量，这番景象显得超凡出尘，一派肃穆气象。

群山形状相同，其山 脚下都有着同样可爱的山谷；不过群山挺然参天，高于阿尔卑斯峰，诸山相距空旷，丰草如茵，林地开阔，

错落其间；

树篱上的白玫瑰娟娟弥望；

远近看不见任何生物，唯有苍翠的教堂庭院里，

牛群静静地卧躺在那 片郁郁葱葱的墓地

歇息，好几头围绕着一个小孩的坟墓。我曾对她一腔柔情，那年夏天是 在旭日东升的前一刻，那孩子死去了，我如同当年那样

望着牛群。

英译汉

We, the human species, are confronting a planetary emergency

a threat to the survival of our civilization that is gathering ominous

and destructive potential even as we gather here. But there is hopeful news as well: we have the ability to solve this crisis and avoid the

worst

–

though not all

–

of its consequences, if we act boldly, decisively and quickly.

However, despite a growing number of honorable exceptions, too many of the

world's leaders are still best described in the words

Winston Churchill applied to those who ignored Adolf Hitler's threat:

resolved to be irresolute, adamant for drift, solid for fluidity, all powerful to be impotent.

So today, we dumped another 70 million tons of global-warming pollution into the thin shell of atmosphere surrounding our planet,

as if it were an open sewer. And tomorrow, we

will dump a slightly larger amount, with the cumulative concentrations now trapping

more and more heat from the sun.

我们人类，正面临全球性的危机，我们的生存和文明受到威胁。尽管 我们聚在一起共商对策，而灾难却在扩大，形式不容乐观。

但也有令人欣喜的消息：如果 行动大胆果断，反应迅速，我们有能力解决这场危机，避免其向最坏的方向发展。

that the cares of life had been led to some distressing moments for both our friends; they understood suddenlu that instead

of dwelling in heaven they were still upon earth ,and had made themselves slaves to new laws and limitations. Instead of being freer and

happier than ever before, they had assumed new responsibilities; they had established a new household, and must fulfill in some way or

another the obligations of it. They looked back with affection to their engagement; they had been longing to have each other to

themselves, apart from the world, but it seemed that they never felt so keenly that they were still units in modern society.
