  • 第2题:

    People suffering from accidents incurred at work or from occupational diseases receive preferential treatment by the social security service compared with those suffering from civil accidents and ordinary illnesses.


    正确答案:

    本题考核知识点:现在分词作定语、过去分词作定语、过去分词作状语的译法

    该句的主干是people receive preferential treatment。其中suffering from accidents or from occupational diseases是现在分词作定语修饰主语people,考生在翻译时可以按照汉语的习惯,将定语放到名词前面。incurred at work是过去分词作定语,修饰这一词组前的accidents,可意译为“因工受伤”。compared with those suffering 是过去分词结构作状语,翻译时,状语部分可放在句首,译为“与...相比”。此外,考生应将该部分中those一词所指代的对象译出,以免产生歧义。联系上下文可得,它是泛指代词,可译为“人们”。Those 后面的现在分词词组仍然充当定语。

    词汇:Occupational diseases“职业病”;preferential treatment“优待”;incur“招致”;social security service社会保障服务;civil“市民的,公民的”,这里与work 相对,译为“个人的”。

    译文:与那些遭受个人意外和忍受普通疾病折磨的人相比,因公受伤或者患有职业病的人在社会保障服务方面享有优待。

  • 第3题:

    If you are writing or studying,it makes very much difference where the light comes from.People who use books and pens every day have to be especially careful about the way the light shines on their work.
    Every house gets its light either from daylight through the windows--which is the best to use--or from lamps or electricity;but whichever kind of light it is,the way it shines toward our book or work is a matter of great importance to the eyes.
    Take a book,sit with your back toward the window,and try to read.Your shadow(影子)falls all over the page and makes it almost as bad for your eyes as if you were in a dark room.
    Now turnaround and face the window.The page is in the shadow again,while the bright light is in your eyes.
    Try sitting with your right side toward the window.This is very well for reading,but if you were writing,the shadow of your hand would fall across the page and bother(打搅)you a little.
    There is just one other way:sit with your left side to the window.Now everything is perfect for reading and for writing,too.
    Whatever kind of light is in the room,the rule about the right to sit is always the same.

    Which of the following is true?

    A.How the light shines on our work is of much importance.
    B.The way the light shines on your work makes no difference.
    C.We needn't care about where the light comes from.
    D.People can write or study under a light that comes from any direction.

    Water

    Earth is like a big blue marble.From high above the Earth and from the moon,the planet gleams and shines.The blue water in the oceans and seas of the Earth makes a dramatic image.The white clouds above the Earth add beauty to the picture.Water is the source of this beauty and the source of life on Earth.It is the reason people can live on this planet. Water is everywhere.(46)_______.It is in the soil,the ground that grows the food.Water is in rock deep under the ground, in natural holding areas一in storage.In a real sense,water keeps Earth alive.
    Nature has an unchanging amount of water. Nature has a perfect system for recycling water. (47)_____.It falls as rain.Then it goes to one of three places.It might sink slowly through the soil into the natural holding areas in the rock.(48)_______一by becoming vapor,or gas.It might run off into streams,rivers and oceans.By itself,nature can keep the balance and provide plenty of clean water for us.Nature recycles water.
    However,people cause problems for this natural recycling system.Nature's recycling system can work well(49)________.Some ways that people upset nature are easy to understand.For example, dirty sewage(污水沟系统)water from homes and factories must not mix with drinking water. People get sick from drinking contaminated water. Sometimes water from factories goes into streams and rivers.It enters into the groundwater. It can flow into lakes too.This kind of contamination from industry(waste water from factories) can be dangerous for people.If water contains poisons and chemicals,it is poison.(50)________;some poisons kill people as well as birds and animals.Without knowing,people can upset nature's recycling system.
    Lakes and rivers add beauty to the world. People enjoy water for entertainment purposes,too. People enjoy swimming and playing in the cool water of a lake in the summer. They like to ride on boats on rivers.Many people enjoy catching fish in the rivers.They fish for food and for sport.However,in some places,the water of the lakes and rivers is no longer safe.These rivers and lakes are contaminated.The fish are dying because of the chemicals from farms and factories.People cannot swim in the polluted water.

    _________(49)
    A:Poison makes people sick
    B:It is in the air that people breathe
    C:We can not live without water
    D:Water is used again and again
    E:only if people work with the system and not against it
    F: It might disappear into the air quickly

    答案:E
    解析:
    文章前一句说水到处都存在,那么后一句应该跟此句有关系,而且下一句说“它存在土壤里”,因此选项B项“它在人们呼吸的空气里”是最合适的。
    文章前一句说大自然有一个循环水的完美系统,那么后一句相关的选项只有D项“水可以一遍又一遍地反复利用”。
    从本句的前后句看这是一个排比句式,三句话都是以it might开头,而后半句“变成蒸汽或水汽”更证明选项F是最合适的。
    本句前一句讲人们会引起大自然循环体系的问题,那么空格里应该填入人们怎么做大自然的循环体系才能很好地运转。因此选项E“只有顺着这个系统,而不是对它造成破坏”是最佳选择。
    本句前后句的关键词是“poison",因此判断只有选项A“毒物使人生病” 最合适。

Write about the following topic:  Some people think people have benefited from modern communications technology, but other people think some people have not benefited at all. To what extent do you agree or disagree?  You should write at least 250 words.

    正确答案: 【参考范文】
    Daily communication tools make the distance between people shrink. There are various ways such as mobile phones, Facebook, Twitter and E-mail which changes our life from daily life to work style. As for the dramatic and rapid changes, people in all walks of life hold different opinions. Personally, it is a must to be tolerant of the new technological innovations.
    It is undeniable that all these high-tech tools can alienate the virtual interpersonal relationship that exists between people. If we want to tell somebody something, we do not have to really see him, and we can send a short message, a E-mail, or leave one on Facebook. Regardless of the convenience, face-to-face conversations are still one of the best ways to understand each other.
    High technologies provide us with more choices which can yield higher efficiency, which can be illustrated from three perspectives. Firstly, it is a useful time-saver for people greatly enjoy social life. Social network enable them to spare the trouble of heavy traffic in rush hours when they need to have contact with friends. Secondly, it is also a money-saver. Compared with the high cost of an official visit to someone or some place, chatting on-site or through telephone is much cheaper. If each company has an E-conference system, information sharing should never be a daydream in the era of information. Lastly, and most importantly, with the great help of new inventions, people may communicate with others without being limited to geographical difference. Namely, no matter where one stays, he or she can get in touch with people on the Internet at any time.
    In summary, modem technologies are excellent assistants of our life and work, so it is wise to accept them and make full use of them properly.
