4、 connection between tornadoes and climate change, there are two big questions theyre asking: First, are the 2011 tornadoes part of a trend? Has tornado activity changed along with rising global temperatures so far? Second, scientists ask whether the factors that create tornadoes have been affected b
5、y climate change and whether those factors are likely to be affected in the future.For one thing, our data on tornado trends are imperfect. At first glance, you might think the number of tornadoes has increased since the 1990s. But most of that is actually the result of more public awareness and bet
6、ter reporting and technology, improving our ability to spot smaller, weaker tornadoes and to notice tornadoes in places where few people live. Bad datum means that we cant reliably say whether tornado counts are increasing.There are many things that can affect the factors that make tornadoes more li
7、kely. Scientists have found that climate change is something that can affect tornado conditions. But when they looked at data for the past 30 years worth of Aprils in the Mississippi Valley, they dont see evidence of any trends that would mean tornado weather is already becoming more frequent.Becaus
8、e of that, it would be problematic to claim that the recent spate of tornadoes in the Southeast was caused by climate change. But thats not the same as saying tornadoes cant be caused by climate change. Its not the same as saying that climate change isnt a contributing factor. Or that tornadoes wont
9、 be caused by climate change in the future. Its not even the same as saying that, years from now, with better data and technology, we wont look back and see a trend happening that isnt obvious today. The big questionare tornadoes caused by climate change? is made up of lots of little questions. And
10、we dont know all the answers to the little questions yet.汉译英31 有时候，在工作中重要的是能否处理好人际关系而不是有多大的才能。人际关系就是一种善于听取别人意见、体察别人的需要、虚心接受批评的能力。善于处理人际关系的人敢于承认错误，敢于承担自己的责任，这是对待错误的一种成熟和负责任的态度。因为他们很注意处理各方面的关系，所以八面玲珑，到处有缘。而人际关系差的人往往不能处理好批评。碰到错误，他们首先想到自己，拒不承认自己有错，或情绪低落，或大发雷霆。2012 年南京大学英语翻译基础真题试卷答案与解析英译汉1 【正确答案】 欧盟(Euro

14、些因素未来是否可能受到影响。首先，我们有关龙卷风趋势的数据还有待完善。乍一看，你可能认为龙卷风的数量自 20 世纪 90 年代后有所增加。但这极有可能是人们公众意识的提高、媒体对龙卷风的正面报道以及技术改进的结果，这些提高了人们发现小型、微弱龙卷风和人烟稀少地区龙卷风的能力。而不良数据意味着，我们不能肯定龙卷风发生的频率是否在增加。很多事情都能够影响那些引发龙卷风的因素。科学家发现，气候变化便是其中之一。但当科学家们查阅密西西比河流域过去 30 年间四月份的数值时，他们并没有找到任何显示龙卷风天气已经变得越来越频繁的证据。因此，我们不能将东南亚最近一连串龙卷风天气归咎于气候变化。但也不能说气候
15、变化不能引发龙卷风天气，或气候变化不是导致龙卷风天气的一个因素，或气候变化将来不会造成龙卷风天气。甚至也不能说从现在起几年内，随着更多的数据和先进技术的出现，我们不会发现一个在今天看来不明显的趋势。那个至关重要的问题一龙卷风是否是由气候变化引起的?是由许多小问题组成的。对于这些小问题，我们尚未找到答案。汉译英31 【正确答案】 Sometimes it is interpersonal skills rather than professional skills that really count in your career. Interpersonal skills are nothing
16、 but the ability to be a good listener and adopt others suggestions, to be sensitive toward others need and to take criticism humbly and well. People with skills in social relations admit their mistakes, and take their share of blame, which is a mature and responsible way to handle an error. Sensitive in their dealing with others, they are well liked everywhere. People with poor interpersonal skills have trouble taking criticism. When confronted with a mistake, they let their ego get in the way. They deny responsibility and became moody or angry.
