    【录音原文】
    The native people of North and South America were given the name “Indians” by the explorer Christopher Columbus. He thought he had reached the place called the Indies. In time, the terms American Indian and Indian became widely used.
    About two million Native Americans live in the United States today. Some Indians lived on government land called reservations, or on tribal lands. Others live in cities.
    Traditional culture remains strong in areas where large numbers of Indians live. But many Native Americans worry that their cultural traditions will be lost as young people leave these areas for economic reasons.
    The economic situation of American Indians as a group is not good. About 50 percent of those who live on reservations have no jobs. Those who do have jobs earn less than other Americans. Most Indians hold low-paying unskilled jobs. Indians have many health problems and do not live as long as other Americans. But the situation is improving as more Indians are becoming educated. Today, most Native Americans graduate from high school. At least 9 percent of all Indians 25 years old or older have finished college. American Indians are trying to change their economic situation, improve their lives and honor their culture.

    Give all of it to other people.

    B

    Spend all of it on himself.

    C

    Give some of it to other people and spend some of it on himself.


    正确答案: B
    解析: 根据结尾处Joaquim Chissano的话I would live better and also help those around me.可知,他将把奖金的一部分自己用,一部分用来帮助别人。
    【录音原文】
      The five million dollar prize financed by the African businessman Mo Ibrahim is designed to encourage better leadership on a continent where until recently dictators were almost the norm. The former leader of Mozambique, Joaquim Chissano, won the award because he steered his country out of civil war and oversaw the introduction of multi-party democracy. Mozambique, which is sandwiched between South Africa and the Indian Ocean, also plays a key role in the downfall of the white supremacist apartheid regime in South Africa. Mr. Chissano wasn’t at the ceremony in London where the prize was announced, but I met him in Mozambique a few weeks ago. When I asked him what he would do with five million dollars, he laughed and said, “I wouldn’t be shy. I would live better and also help those around me. ”

    So nervous ______ that she didn’t know how to start her speech.
    A

    since she became  

    B

    would she become

    C

    that she became  

    D

    did she become


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    她如此紧张,以至于不知道怎样开始她的演讲。以so开头的句子,主谓要部分倒装。部分倒装是指将谓语的一部分如助动词或情态倒装至主语之前。如果句中的谓语没有助动词或情态动词,则需添加助动词do,does或did,并将其置于主语之前。本句陈述的是过去发生的事情,所以用过去时态。在句子中添加did,故选项D正确。

  • 第6题:

    问答题
    The dangers of scofflawry vary wildly. The person who illegally spits on the sidewalk remains disgusting, but clearly poses less risk to others than the company that illegally buries hazardous chemical waste in an unauthorized location. The fare beater on the subway presents less threat of life than the landlord who ignores fire safety statutes. The most immediately and measurable dangerous scofflawry, however, also happens to be the most visible. The culprit is the American driver, whose lawless activities today add up to a colossal public nuisance. The hazards range from routine double parking that jams city streets to the drunk driving that kills thousands of people yearly. Red-light running has always been ranked as a minor wrong, and so it may be in individual instances. When the violation becomes habitual, widespread and incessant, however, a great deal more than a traffic management problem is involved. The violation of basic rules of the road leaves deep dents in the social mood.

    正确答案:
    玩忽法律的行为,其危害是多种多样的。在人行道上随地吐痰,当然是令人讨厌的。但比起那些大工厂在非规定的地方随意埋置危险化学废料的违法行为,它对人的危害性要小得多。乘地铁逃票当然没有像房东无视防火安全规定那样会危及人的生命安全。然而,正是那些极常见的玩忽法律的行为,造成的危害最直接,最严重了。罪魁祸首要算那些无法无天驾驶汽车的美国人,他们的所作所为构戍了巨大的公害。从在马路上并排停两辆汽车,造成交通阻塞到酒后驾车,致使每年车祸死亡成千上万人。闯红灯常常被列勾小错,因而可能只是个别情况。然而一旦人们形成习惯,成为普遍经常性的东西则问题远非是交通管理而已。违反交通规则给社会心理状态打开了一道深深的缺口。
    解析:
    【翻译要点】
    scofflawry指“藐视法律的行为”。本题在翻译时需注意到增词处理。要做到清楚地表达原文意思,在翻译时增添些词语是必要的。增词的情况之一就是把原文句子里隐含的意思或因上下文清楚而就省掉的东西通过增词表达出来。该题第八句中的violation单独译,是“违反,违犯”的意思。但这里指的是red-light running,因此翻译时要通过增词把这个意思表示出来:然而,违反交通规则一旦形成习惯,成为普遍经常性的东西则问题远非是交通管理而已。

    石油价格的飞速上涨对世界经济产生了很大的影响。(affect)

    正确答案: The rapid increase in the price of oil has greatly affected the world economy.

    Linda: Right, well, my name is Linda Goodyear. And I'd like briefly to tell you why I think you should choose me as your rep. Hmm, these are the things I will try something about, try to improve, or…I mean, do. So I think we all know the careers of advice service needs a bit of improvement, so I'd work to improve that, especially we need more practical advice about getting work experience, not in this country, I mean, overseas. And another thing I think we should press for is a close link with businesses and companies where I can actually go on visits. I think we should try to get around. I mean not ever just locally but all over the midlands. So we actually see a greater variety of ways of doing things, rather than hearing about them. Then, the next thing I think important is something…quite involved with myself. That’s the voluntary work with the homeless. I’d like to get more people here in the college involved either directly or I hope with raising money. And last of all, I’d like to push the college authorities really hard for some new furniture for students’ common room. Thank you very much. Please vote for me.
    Darrell: Hi, everybody. I expect you may know my name is Darren Whiting. I really like to be your student rep this year and well, here is what I try to do for you, for us. First, I’ll take on the canteen and try to stop them putting up price of hot meals as they said they will. Then the next thing is, well, I’d organize a book exchange throughout the whole college, like already exists in the maths department, to save money on expensive textbooks that we all have to have, but don’t need for the whole course. Another thing we badly need in this college is a Student Advice Center. We need a place run by students for students where people can drop in and get advice about any sorts of problems, academic or welfare or whatever. We also need to take on the college authorities on the subject of accommodation for students who need it. I mean the situation at the moment is crazy, with no proper system for deciding who gets the accommodation or why. I want to change that. And lastly, I want to get in more speakers from all political backgrounds, and from industry, and so on, to help people more aware of, you know, what’s going on in the world today. Because we’ll all be out there soon, like it or not. Please vote for me. Thanks for your listening.
