4、国际局势的讲话。 In the wake of the Cold War, the world has experienced a time when there is only one superpower and therefore, no balance of power. Will this situation persist for a long time? Well, the answer to that depends on whether youre an optimist or a pessimist, and on the possibility of subsuming
5、power politics within a constitutional world order shaped by the mono-cultural global ideology. For the foreseeable future, though, a third world war seems unlikely; because there is no major ideological fracture severe enough to sustain it. War itself wont disappear, and occasional regional armed c
6、onflicts flare up. Though a world war is less likely for the present, I worry about the proliferation of nuclear weapons and lethal bio-chemical arms. It is terrifying to see the way that power is increasingly disseminated to small, completely ruthless groups like terrorists, drug traffickers and lo
7、cal warlords. The great imponderable is that some nuts could create a nuclear explosion, or that some essentially local conflict could escalate out of control. The huge economic imbalance in the world will also result in serious disasters. The fact that the richest 20 percent have 86 percent of glob
8、al GDP, and the 20 poorest countries only 1 percent constitutes a destabilizing factor that will harm world peace. There are people who anticipate a more progressive path, sometimes called “the new medievalism“, in which the relentless advance of information technology results in the demise of the s
9、tate as we know it. The idea is that global communications will simultaneously empower individuals to create transnational virtual communities and make it more difficult for governments to control their populations. The result will be a new political landscape with overlapping jurisdictions in place
10、 of territorial states with distinct jurisdictions. Again, Im skeptical myself. We cant ultimately exist as virtual communities; we all have to live somewhere and pay our taxes. The resurgence of nationalism argues against this model in any case. In the first half of the 20th century many believed t
11、hat nationalism would give way to a world organized on liberal principles; some even believed in world government. But today the pressure is in the opposite direction, towards ethnic separatism at an accelerating speed. Since the end of the Cold War, much of the attention focused on nuclear and stra
12、tegic issues has drained away to a dangerous extent in fact. Weapons of mass destruction have increased, and the international political and military balance has now been seriously undermined by the nuclear tests in countries and regions that have lost grip on them. A stronger and more efficient Uni
13、ted Nations that allows for diversified values, therefore, has been asked for to maintain a check-and-balance pattern of the world political structure. As regards the balance of power in the future, well, the one thing that we can be sure about is that our job is not to predict the future but to imp
14、rove the .understanding of this diversified world we live in. On that front at least, were optimistic about improvement and progress . 1 【正确答案】 冷战以后世界上仅有一个超级大国，势力均衡因此也就不存在了。这种状况是否会持续很久呢 ?答案取决于你是乐观主义者，还是悲观主义者。还取决于强权政治是否会被纳入受全球单一文化观念影响的某种立宪制世界秩序中。 不过，在可预见的未来，第三次世界大战似乎不太可能发生，因为不存在严重到足以引发世界大战的意识形态上的重大分歧
15、。战争本身不可能销声匿迹，局部武装冲突时有爆发。 虽然目前发生世界大战的可能性更小了，不过我担心核武器扩散，担心致命性生化武器的扩散。可怕的是，越来越多的杀人 武器流散到像恐怖主义分子、毒品贩子和地方军阀这样毫无人性的小团伙手里。最无法估计的事是某些疯子会制造一场核爆炸，或者地方性的冲突会升级到无法控制的地步。世界经济严重失衡也会带来严重的后果，占世界人口 20的最富的国家拥有全球国内生产总值的 86，而最穷的 20个国家仅拥有全球国内生产总值的 1，这也是影响世界和平的不稳定因素。 另一些人预见到一条更具有进化性的道路，这条道路有时被称为 “新中世纪主义 ”。根据这一理论，信息技术的持续进步
16、将导致我们现有概念中的国家最终灭亡。这种观点认为，全球性通讯传播将同时 赋予个人创建跨国虚拟社区的能力，使各国政府难以控制其人民。其结果是一种政治新格局的形成，相互重叠的管辖体系将取代管辖权界线分明的领土型国家。 对此我同样表示怀疑。我们最终是不能以虚拟社区的形式存在：我们都得生活在某个地方并且纳税。民族主义的再度兴起实际上是对这种模式否定。 20世纪上半叶，许多人相信民族主义会让位于一个根据自由主义原则组建的世界；有些人甚至相信会有世界政府。可是如今的趋势是朝相反方向，朝着民族分离主义的方向进一步发展。 冷战结束以来，对核武器和战略问题的关注已逐渐减少到十分危险 的程度。大规模杀伤性武器的数
17、量在不断上升，而一些国家和地区所进行的几近失控的核试验严重威胁着世界的政治军事平衡。 人们期待出现一个更为强大、更有效率、价值多元的联合国，对世界政治格局起到制约和平衡的作用。 至于未来势力均衡的问题，有一点可以肯定，我们的任务不是预测未来，而是增进对我们所居住的这个多样性世界的理解。至少在这一方面，我们对其发展与进步持乐观态度。 【试题解析】 本文是一篇关于国际局势的讲话。文中除讲述了当今世界的整体局势外，还讲述了威胁世界和平和安全的因素，包括武器 扩散、恐怖主义、经济严重失衡等，并阐述了其中的原因。最后，文中指出主要依托联合国，对应对这些威胁提出了看法。 本文要求应试者掌握一定的国际政治局
18、势的常识，熟悉相关的专门词汇和表达方式，这依赖于应试者平时的知识积累，是翻译的基本要求。此外，应试者还需要在短时间内，对长难句进行正确的理解、分析、简化或切分，把握两种语言各自特色，完成双语间的转换；对于一些较为生僻的短语和表达法，不能死译、硬译，而应该充分联系上下文灵活变通，使译文通顺流畅。 2 【听力原文】 下面你将听到的是一段有关企业管理的讲话。 It stands to reason that for an organization to act intelligently, first and foremost, it must have a clear and unambiguou
19、s sense of purpose. The leaders of the enterprise have to provide direction or a sense of destiny before they can harness the collective talents and skills of everyone to move forward. And unless that reason for existing resonates with the rank-and-file, not much forward momentum will be created. An
20、 organizations sense of purpose has three distinct elements: First, a sound strategic concept which details why the organization has been formed and what it is hoped it will achieve. This may be articulated in a succinct and applicable mission statement. For example, Disneys strategic concept is “to
21、 deliver a rich customer experience which is full of fun and fantasy delivered in a theatrical environment“. To retain its relevance, the strategic concept should be systematically evaluated each year and updated to reflect new trends, threats or opportunities. Second, a workable value proposition b
22、y which the organization will convert the value it adds for customers into revenue. The value proposition is the organizations promise to the marketplace. Third, a good business model which will provide the infrastructure by which the value proposition will be executed week-in and week-out. In an or
23、ganization where these three elements are under constant evaluation and discussion, the leaders are able to respond to the evolving business environment appropriately. In practice, strategic vision is the capacity of an organizations leaders to create,“ evolve and express the purpose of the business
24、 enterprise. If the leaders are incapable of evolving that business concept over time, the organization will drift from one idea to the next. Conversely, strong leaders will have a vibrant and robust strategic concept in place, value proposition and business model. They will bring to the task what c
25、an be termed “bifocal vision“, that is, strong leaders will have the capacity to respond to the challenges of the present without losing sight of where the organization needs to be heading in the future. 2 【正确答案】 显然，一个企业若要精明地运作，首先必须有一个明确而清晰的目标。 企业领导人要指出企业的方向或命运所在，才能调动并利用好众人的智慧和才能，不断前进。企业为生存而遵循的理念除非与
26、普通员工产生共鸣，否则很难创造强劲的上升势头。 一个企业的目标，包含下列三大要素： 第一，健全的战略理念，用于详述企业成立的宗旨和期望达到的目标。可以是一句简练、适用性强的使命宣言。 例如，迪斯尼的战略理是 “为顾客提供在戏剧性的环境中才能体验得到的、充满乐趣和幻想的丰富经历 ”。 为了切合实际，每年都应该对战略性理念进行系统的评估和更新，以使其反映新的趋势，新的挑战或新的机会。 第二，切实可行的价值主张，通过价值主张，企业把为顾客创造的价值转变成收益。价值主张是一个企业对市场所做的承诺。 第三，良好的商业模式 ，为价值主张的实现，提供日常可实施的框架。 一个企业如果经常对上述三大要素进行评估
27、和讨论，其领导就能及时应对不断发生变化的企业环境。 在实践中，战略眼光指的是一个企业领导人创造、发展与表述企业理念的能力。如果领导人不能随着时间的推移而发展其商业理念，其企业就会随波逐流，无所适从。 相反，强有力的领导人会确立有活力的、健全的战略理念、价值主张和商业模式。他们的 “双重 ”视野使其既能看到近期，又能考虑到未来。换言之，强有力的领导人有能力在应对当前挑战的同时，不失去对企业未来走向的判断。 【试题解析】 本文是一段有关企业管理的讲话。文中主要介绍了企业目标的重要性以及目标的三大要素：战略理念、价值主张、商业模式，并对这三大要素做出具体解释。同时还指出了企业领导人的战略眼光和魄力的
28、重要性。 本文要求应试者掌握一定的经济管理常识，要对经济管理的相关专门词汇和表达方式有一定的了解，这依赖于应试者平时的知识积累，是翻译的基本要求。此外，应试者还需要在短时间内，对长难句进行正确的理解、分析、简化或切分，把握好两种语言各自特色，完成双语间的转换；对于一些较为生僻的短语和表达法，不能死译 、硬译，而应该充分联系上下文灵活变通，使译文通顺流畅。 二、 PART 2 Chinese-English Translation (50 points, 30 minutes) Interpret the following passages from Chinese into English.

31、专门小组，配有专职人 员。 中国政府一直把儿童教育置于整个教育事业发展的优先地位。在政府和全社会的共同努力下，近年来，中国的儿童教育事业有了很大发展，许多指标优先于其他发展中国家，有的接近发达国家水平。 中国动员社会采取多种方式关心和帮助残疾儿童的成长，大力弘扬残疾儿童自强不息的精神，倡导团结、友爱、互助的社会风尚。大众传媒积极反映残疾儿童的生活，报道残疾人事业发展情况。广播、电视普遍开办残疾儿童专题节目，并配制手语、字幕 .逐步实行方便残疾人的城市道路和建筑物设计规范，采取无障碍设施等措施，为残疾儿童的生存和发展 创造良好的社会环境。 为促进儿童保护领域的国际合作，中国政府和社会力量在扎实、

46、定。 经过科学探测，我们对我国矿产资源的分布有了更清楚的认识：中国煤炭和石油的特点是资源丰富但结构不理想。煤炭资源蕴藏量大，煤种齐全，但优质炼焦用煤和无烟煤储量不多；分布广泛，但储量丰度悬殊，东少西多，北丰南贫。中国石油资源储量大，是世界可采资源量大于 150亿吨的 10个国家之一，但是资源的探明程度低，陆上探明石油地质储量仅占全部资源的 20，近海海域的探明程度更低；分布比较集中，大于 10万平方千米的 14个盆地的石油资源量占全国的73；油气资源埋藏深，地质条件复杂。 中国矿产资源遍布于全 国各地，但因所处大地构造带和成矿地质条件的不同，各地区矿产资源分布不均，其矿种、储量、质量差异较大，
