Decide
which
of
the
choices
given
below
would
best
complete
the
passage
if
inserted
in the
corresponding blanks
。
Mark
the best choice for each blank on your answer
sheet
。??
The translator must have an
excellent
,
up
-
to
-
date knowledge of
his source
languages
,
full
facility in the handling of his target
language
,
which will be
his
mother
tongue
or
language
of
habitual
(
26
)
and
a
knowledge
and
understanding
of the latest
subject
-
matter in his field
of specialization
。?
This
is
,
as
it
were
,
his
professional
equipment
。(
27
)
this
,
it
is
desirable
that
he
should
have
an
inquiring
mind
,
wide
interests
,
a
good
memory
and
the
ability
to
grasp quickly the basic principles of new
developments
。
He should be
willing
to
work
(
28
)
is
own
,
often
at
high
speeds
,
but
should
be
humble
enough
to
consult
others
(
29
)
his own knowledge not
always prove adequate to the task in
hand
。
He
should
be
able
to
type
fairly
quickly
and
accurately
and
,
if
he
is
working
mainly
for
publication
,
should
have
more
than
a
nodding
(
30
)
with
printing
techniques
and
pr
oof
-
reading
。
If
he
is
working
basically
as
an
information
translator
,
let
us
say
,
for
an
industrial
firm
,
he
should
have
the
flexibility
of
mind
to
enable
him to
(
31
)
rapidly from one source
language to another
,
as well
as from one
subject
-
matter
to
another
,
since
this
ability
is
frequently
(
32
)
of
him
in
such
work
。
Bearing
in
mind
the
nature
of
the
translator’s
work,
i
。
e
。
the
processing
of the written
word
,
it
is
,
strictly
speaking
,
(
33
)
that he should be able
to
speak
thelanguage
he
is
dealing
with
。
If
he
does
speak
them
,
it
is
an
advantage
(
34
)
a
hindrance
,
but this skill is
in many ways a luxury that he can
(
35
)
with
。
It is
,
(
36
),
desirable that he should
have an approximate idea about
the
pronunciation of his source languages even if this
is restricted to
(
37
)
how proper names and place
names are pronounced
。
The
same
(
38
)
to an ability
to
write his source languages
。
If he can
,
well and good; if
he cannot
,
it does
not
(
39
)。

skills and
(

that are desirable in a
translator
