25、points, (总题数：1，分数：1.00)_翻译资格考试三级综合能力(口译)1 答案解析(总分：7.00，做题时间：120 分钟)一、PART 1 (20 points, (总题数：1，分数：1.00)(1).My father served in World War II.（分数：0.10）A.True B.False解析：理解推断。根据原文“My story began in the years following World War II，when men like my father who had served their country returned home to set

26、tle down”，译文为：我的故事开始于二战之后的岁月里，那时我父亲那辈的男人们为祖国服役结束，回到家里开始过安定的生活。据此可以推断出 my father served in World War II。(2).The Baby Boom began before World War II.（分数：0.10）A.TrueB.False 解析：理解推断。根据原文“My story began in the years following World War IIIt was the beginning of the Baby Boom，an optimistic time”，译文为：我的故事开

27、始于二战之后的岁月里，这是一个生育高峰期的开始，即乐观时代的到来。据此可以推断生育高峰期出现在二战之后，所以题干表述是错误的。(3).My parents didnt feel secure because the Cold War was beginning with the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe.（分数：0.10）A.TrueB.False 解析：从句理解。根据原文“Although the Cold War with the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe was beginning，my parents and

28、their generation felt secure and hopeful”，译文为：虽然和苏联、东欧的冷战刚刚开始，但是我父母那辈的人感到很安全并充满了希望。本题关键是对让步状语从句的理解，题干中给出的是错误信息。(4).American people were proud and optimistic because they felt they had saved the world and now were helping to rebuild Europe and Japan.（分数：0.10）A.True B.False解析：理解推断。根据原文“an optimistic t

29、imeThe United States had saved the world from fascism，and now our nation was working tosecuring the peace and helping to rebuild a devastated Europe and Japan”，译文为：一个乐观的时代，美国把世界从法西斯手中拯救了出来，正在努力保卫和平，帮助重建被毁坏的欧洲和日本。据此可以推断题干表述是正确的。(5).There were not enough opportunities for people like my parents.（分数：0.

30、10）A.TrueB.False 解析：词义理解。根据原文“the abundant opportunities available to people like my parents who worked hard and took responsibility”，译文为：像我父母那样工作努力，有责任心的人们有大量的机会可以利用。此题关键在于理解 abundant 的词义，即“大量的；充足的”，所以题干表述是错误的，我的父母一代的人并不是机会很少。(6).Only middle-class Americans benefited from the prosperity in the post

31、-war era.（分数：0.10）A.TrueB.False 解析：理解推断。根据原文“Middle-class America was flush with emerging prosperity”，译文为：美国中产阶级萌发，显示出繁荣的景象。但文章并没有强调只有中产阶级在二战后获益，据此可以推断题干陈述是错误的。(7).World War II generation and their children challenged social injustice and inequality.（分数：0.10）A.True B.False解析：细节信息。根据原文“it was the Wor

32、ld War II generation and their children who woke up the challenges of social injustice and inequality”，译文为：二战时期的一代人和他们的后代唤醒人们挑战社会存在的不公正不平等的现象。所以题干表述是正确的。(8).My parents generation believed in the infinite possibilities of America.（分数：0.10）A.True B.False解析：细节信息。根据原文“My parents were typical of a genera

33、tion who believed in the endless possibilities of America”，译文为：我的父母是这代人的典型代表，他们相信美国有无限的可能。所以题干的表述是正确的。(9).Americas promise was extended to all its citizens.（分数：0.10）A.TrueB.False 解析：理解推断。根据原文“to the ideal of extending Americas promise to all of its citizens”，译文为：达到理想的状态，把美国的承诺延伸至每一个公民。所以可以推断出这是二战一代及

35、威力”是错误的。二、SECTION 2 (10 point(总题数：1，分数：1.00)(1).Under what circumstances would Bob replace him?（分数：0.10）A.If he fell at that time.B.If he failed the exam.C.If he didnt come in time. D.If he asked in time.解析：固定搭配。根据原文“If he should fail to come in time，ask Bob to work in his place”，此句是虚拟条件句，译文为：如果他不能按

36、时到的话，让鲍勃代替他。本题关键在于理解固定搭配 fail to do sth，意思是：未能做成，所以 c 选项 if he didnt come in time 是对原文的正确解释。(2).Which of the following is closest in meaning to what youve just heard?（分数：0.10）A.You caught me so you can put me in jail.B.You cant escape because I got hold of you.C.Youve got my ideas.D.Youve asked a qu

37、estion I cant answer. 解析：口语理解。根据原文“Now youve got me”，关键在于理解 get 的词义，动词 get 的义项很多，但本句是口语的表达方法，get 有“难住，使面对难题”的意思，Now youve got me的意思就是“你难倒我了。”，所以选 d。(3).What have you learned about Susan?（分数：0.10）A.She was as tall as my shoulder. B.She leaned her head on my shoulder.C.She cried on my shoulder.D.She l

38、ooked at things over my shoulder.解析：固定搭配。根据原文“When I ran into my cousin Susan on campus，I was surprised to find that she only came up to my shoulder”，译文为：当我在校园里偶然碰上我的表妹苏姗，我很吃惊地发现她的个子只到我的肩膀。run into 固定搭配， 意思是：撞上，偶遇，come up to 固定搭配，意思是：达到(标准)，比得上，所以选择 a 选项。She was as tall as my shoulder 意思是：她和我的肩膀一般高。

39、(4).Which flight am I going to take?（分数：0.10）A.Flight 487 leaving at 4:56 pm.B.Flight 347 leaving at 6:45 pm.C.Flight 437 leaving at 6:45 pm. D.Flight 477 leaving at 5:40 pm.解析：数字信息。根据原文“I have to catch Flight 437 leaving at 6：45 p.m. for San Francisco”，重点听清两个数字信息，航班号和起飞时间。c 选项为正确选项。(5).Which of the

40、 following is closest in meaning to the sentence you just heard?（分数：0.10）A.When his wife needs help in the kitchen, he always does it without any complaint. B.He never stops whoever comes to help his wife in the kitchen.C.He never goes to help his wife in the kitchen.D.He never hesitates to help his

41、 wife in the kitchen.解析：同义替换。根据原文“When it comes to helping his wife in the kitchen，he never grumbles”，译文为：当提到帮助妻子在厨房干活，他从来都不抱怨。此题关键在于 grumble 的词义，意思是：牢骚、抱怨、嘟嚷地说，所以 a 选项为正确选项，用 complaint 代替原句的 grumble 的意思。固定搭配 When it comes to，译文为：当提到。(6).Did she close the garage door?（分数：0.10）A.Yes, she did. I asked

42、 her to close it.B.No, she didnt though she could. C.No, but she is going to close it.D.Yes, she did.解析：虚拟语气。根据原文“She could have closed the garage door”，该句是虚拟语气，译文为：她本来能关上车库的门。虚拟语气表示与事实相反，所以事实是“她没有关车库的门”，所以选 b。(7).What did he do with his old car?（分数：0.10）A.He maintained the old car. B.He planned to

43、replace the old car.C.He discarded the old car.D.He had his old car fixed.解析：固定搭配。根据原文“He kept up his old car because new ones are so expensive”，译文为：因为新车太贵了，所以他保存旧车。此题关键在于理解固定搭配 keep up，意思是：保持良好状态，保存，所以选 a，maintain 意思是：维持，继续。b 选项为“他计划把旧车换掉。”，replace 意思是：代替，替换；c 选项为“他丢掉了旧车。”，discard 意思是：丢弃，抛弃；d 选项为“他

44、修理了旧车。”(8).Why was my mother disappointed?（分数：0.10）A.Because I didnt show her my homework.B.Because I didnt show her my homework in time.C.Because I didnt do my homework.D.Because my homework was done poorly. 解析：理解推断。根据原文“How disappointed my mother was when I showed her my homework!”译文为：我让妈妈看我的作业时，她

45、多么失望啊!所以推断出妈妈失望的原因应当是作业完成得很差，选 d。(9).What do I mean?（分数：0.10）A.Beef is my favorite food.B.I am very hungry. C.I hate beef.D.I am very angry.解析：口语理解。根据原文“I could eat a cow”，该句是口语表达，译文为：我很饿(可以吃下一头牛)。所以选 b。(10).Which of the following is true about Jane Eyre?（分数：0.10）A.The first woman novelist in Englis

46、h literature.B.The first woman novelist dealing with gender issues.C.The first novel about the equality between genders in English literature. D.The first novel in English literature.解析：理解推断。根据原文“Jane Eyre was the first novel about women being equal to men to have appeared in English literature”，译文为

47、：简爱是英国文学史上第一部关于女性享有与男性同等权利的小说。简爱是小说中女主人公的名字，而不是小说家的名字，所以 a 选项和 b 选项为干扰项。三、PART 2 (30 points, (总题数：3，分数：3.00)(1).When is an ordinary tropical storm called a hurricane?（分数：0.20）A.When it begins in the Atlantic and Caribbean seas.B.When it hits the coastline.C.When it is more than 75 miles wide.D.When

48、its winds reach 75 miles per hour. 解析：细节信息。题干：一种普通的热带风暴在何时被称为飓风?根据原文“circling winds of 75 miles per hour or more that give them hurricane status”，译文为：风速为每小时 75 英里或超过75 英里的盘旋的风暴获得了飓风的地位。所以选 d。(2).What is the worst thing about hurricanes?（分数：0.20）A.The destructive effects of water. B.The heat they release.C.The powerful movement of the sea.D.Their strong winds.解析：理解推断。题干
