  • 第5题:

    Still in his late thirties, Silverberg has published more than a hundred books, and he is disarmingly frank about the relationship between the quality of genuine prose and the quality of available outlet.


    正确答案:
    译文:还不到四十岁,西尔弗伯格就已出版了一百多本书籍,而他对真正散文的质量与应时之作的质量之间的关系十分坦诚,毫无掩饰。

     本题考核知识点:词义的选择。

    该句是and连接的两个并列分句,其主干是Silverberg has published... , and he is frank about...

    词汇:in one’s thirties意为“在(某人)三十几岁时”,由于本句中有late修饰,如果直译为“三十几岁晚期”不符合汉语表达习惯,应意译为“不到四十岁”。disarmingly意为“使人消除敌意(或怀疑、怒气等)的”,与frank一起应译为“十分坦诚、直言不讳”。genuine意为“真正的;坦率的,真诚的”。available意为“可获得的,可找到的”,outlet意为“(思想、感情、精力发泄的)出路,表现机会”,available outlet不能直译,而应根据上文对应的genuine prose(真正的散文)意译为“应时之作”。

     

  • 第6题:

    The Theory of Everyone
      If Stephen Hawking lives until the year 2017, he will have lived more than 50 years longer than his doctors expected. When he was a college student, doctors discovered that he had a rare disease. This disease causes a gradual disintegration(分解)of the nerve cells in the brain cells that regulate voluntary muscle activity. Death almost always occurs within two or three years.
      Today Stephen Hawking cannot walk or speak. He cannot move his arms or his head. He cannot taste or smell anything. And yet this man is Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University, a position held by the famous scientist Isaac Newton in 1669.
      Hawking is often described as the greatest scientist since Albert Einstein, but to the world outside science, he is also known as the man who made scientific theory understandable. His book, A Brief History of Time, has sold over eight million copies.
      He says that since he does not have to think about his body or do any of the things other men have to worry about, such as washing the car or working in the yard, he can dedicate all of his time to thinking. This puts him in the perfect position to find the answer to the question that he has dedicated his life to. His question is: Is there a complete theory of the universe and everything in it?
      Despite his tremendous physical disabilities, he has already made some very important discoveries about the origin of the universe, how the universe holds together, and how it will probably end. He has also been able to explain the secrets of “black holes” in space. Now he is looking for a set of rules that everything in our universe must obey. He calls it the Theory of Everything. He thinks that someone will have found the answer within the next 20 years.
      If Stephen Hawking is able to find his Theory of Everything, he will have given the world the opportunity to understand things that will change the whole nature of science and probably also the way we live.

    问答题
    Practice 2  The object of this essay is to assert one very simple principle as entitled to govern absolutely the dealings of society with the individual in the way of compulsion and control, whether the means used be physical force in the form of legal penalties, or the moral coercion of public opinion. That principle is, that the sole end for which mankind is warranted, individually or collectively, in interfering with the liberty of action of any of their number, is self-protection. That the only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilized community, against his will, is to prevent harm to others. His own good, either physical or moral, is not a sufficient warrant. He cannot rightfully be compelled to do or forbear because it will be better for him to do so, because it will make him happier, because, in the opinions of others, to do so would be wise, or even right. These are good reasons for remonstrating with him, or reasoning with him, or persuading him, but not for compelling him, or visiting him with any evil in case he do otherwise. To justify that, the conduct from which it is desired to deter him must be calculated to produce evil to someone else. The only part of the conduct for anyone, for which he is amenable to society, is that which concerns others. In the part which merely concerns himself, his dependence is, of right, absolute. Over himself, over his own body and mind, the individual is sovereign.

    本文的目的是要力主一条极其简单的原则,使凡属社会以强制和控制方法对付个人之事,不论所用手段是法律惩罚方式下的物质力量或者是公众意见下的道德压力,都要绝对以它为准绳。这条原则就是:人类之所以有理有权可以各别地或者集体地对其中任何分子的行动自由进行干涉,唯一的目的只是自我防卫。这就是说,对于文明群体中的任一成员,所以能够施用一种权力以反其意志而不失为正当,唯一的目的只是要防止对他人的危害。若说为了那人自己的好处,不论是物质上的或者是精神上的好处,那不成为充足的理由。人们不能强迫一个人去做一件事或者不去做一件事,说因为这对他比较好,因为这会使他比较愉快,因为这在别人的意见认为是聪明的或者甚至是正当的;这样不能算是正当。所有这些理由,若是为了向他规劝,或是为了和他辨理,或是为了对他说服,以至是为了向他恳求,那都是好的;但只是不能借以对他实行强迫,或者说,如果他相反而行的话便要使他遭受什么灾祸。要使强迫成为正当,必须是所要对他加以吓阻的那宗行为将会对他人产生祸害。任何人的行为,只有涉及他人的那部分才须对社会负责。在仅只涉及本人的那部分,他的独立性在权利上则是绝对的。对于本人自己,对于他自己的身和心,个人乃是最高主权者。

    M: Hi! Are you busy right now?
    W: Oh. Hi, Scan. There’s a meeting at two-thirty, but I have a few minutes. What can I do for you?
    M: Well. I wanted to talk with you before I went to register for next semester. That’ll be my last term here’ cause I hope to transfer to the university next year.
    W: Great! Have you applied to the university yet?
    M: Not yet. The deadline’s not till March 1.
    W: Right.
    M: But I was, uh, I wanted to check with you to see if there are any other courses I still need before I transfer. I think I’ve filled all the requirements, but I, uh, just wanted to make sure before I register.
    W: All right. Let me pull up your record. Let’s see now …Sean Howard. Here we are. Hmm. All right, it looks like you’ve got all of your English and math credits, so you’re OK there, as well as your humanities and uh, social sciences. But for natural science…hmm…you took biology in your first year, but I don’t see anything after that. You’re required to have at least one more natural science coupe before you can transfer.
    M: Oh, really? I thought I needed only one science course.
    W: No, sorry, you need at least eight credits in natural science, and that means two courses.
    M: I didn’t know that. OK. Then I wonder which course I should take. What do you recommend?
    W: Next semester…let’s see…it looks like astronomy, botany, and ecology are all being offered. There’s also a course in meteorology for non-science majors.
    M: Meteorology? Do you mean, like, the weather?
    W: That’s right.
    M: Hey, that might be kind of interesting. I always wanted to know how they forecast the weather.
    W: Then that’s the fight course for you. Oh, and, Sean, it looks like you also need two credits in physical education.
    M: Physical!
    W: Right. You’re required to have four credits, and you’ve only got two so far.
    M: Oh, boy. Well, OK, that shouldn’t be too hard. Maybe I should take golf—that is offered in the spring, right?
    W: Golf? Uh…yes, it is. Do you play?
    M: Not very well, no. I’ve only played a couple of times, but I need to do better than that. My boss plays golf and he’s always talking about it. It would be nice to know what he’s talking about!
    W: Then you’d better take golf. You’ve got to play golf with your boss!
    M: OK, OK, you talked me into it! Hey, thanks for your time. I appreciate your help, and I’ll get out of your way now.
    W: Glad to help, Sean. Good luck with registration!
