新東方:08春季中口筆試聽力句子翻譯原文
1.?????? Most people are too anxious during tests. Such anxiety makes them less efficient than normal. As a result, their scores are much lower than they expected.
聽到這句話,原本正雙手顫抖心動(dòng)過速緊張答題的考生會(huì)不禁莞爾一笑,也會(huì)不經(jīng)意地在自己接下去考試中穩(wěn)定情緒。的確,焦慮只會(huì)導(dǎo)致自己在考場(chǎng)中發(fā)揮失常。本句雖有3個(gè)分句,但難度不大,翻譯的時(shí)候注意翻出因果關(guān)系和對(duì)比內(nèi)容。
2.?????? The office of Mr. Arthur Tiger, the prominent industrialist, was broken into during the weekend. A small amount of money was taken and the office itself was left in a terrible mess.
本句一開始提到了人名,若考生沒有聽清或無法記錄,千萬不能因此而打亂思路。課上我們?cè)?jīng)強(qiáng)調(diào)過,得分的關(guān)鍵不是人名,而是身份,之后作為插入語的身份一定要翻出來。若不認(rèn)識(shí)prominent(卓越的)也不要緊張,只要抓住中心詞industrialist(企業(yè)家)即可。邊聽可以邊聯(lián)想入室搶劫的場(chǎng)景---錢被偷了,屋內(nèi)一片狼籍---以加深記憶。
3.?????? A job interview works both ways. On the one hand, employers measure short-listed candidates during the conversation. On the other, prospective employees can decide whether the job in question is right for them.
課上我們特別提過"一方面。。。另一方面。。。"的記錄方法,也特別解釋過short-listed candidates,想必同學(xué)們不會(huì)再陌生。另外,大部分的考生都接觸過求職這一話題,因此本句話還是比較貼近生活的。
4.?????? The Stock Exchange Index was 998 in June 2005. Yesterday, it reached 5960, which is the highest in history and almost six times higher than two years ago.
本句主要考察的是數(shù)字的記錄,出現(xiàn)了股指、倍數(shù)、時(shí)間以及年份。課上我們就這個(gè)專題進(jìn)行過詳細(xì)講解及訓(xùn)練,絕大多數(shù)同學(xué)應(yīng)該能夠駕輕就熟了。自去年以來,股市已經(jīng)成為一個(gè)全民話題,相信句中提到的數(shù)字大家也不陌生吧~
5.?????? By far, the most serious economic problem in Britain is that of inflation, now being accelerated by overheated investment in capital and property and threatened further by possible wage explosion.
與奧會(huì)話題成為本次Spot-Dictation的主題一樣,目前的考試越來越與時(shí)俱進(jìn)。筆者在今年考前,特別在邱邱老師的博客上寫過關(guān)于通貨膨脹的熱點(diǎn)追蹤(3月口譯備考勝經(jīng)系列)--中口熱點(diǎn)追蹤 ,這次考試果然就考到了。在房地產(chǎn)和資本市場(chǎng)的過度投資加速了在英國(guó)本來就已經(jīng)很嚴(yán)重的通脹,且可能的薪酬暴漲會(huì)進(jìn)一步加劇這一現(xiàn)象,前者屬于需求拉動(dòng)型,而后者屬于成本推動(dòng)型通貨膨脹。在考前對(duì)此背景略有掌握的話,這最后一句聽譯中應(yīng)該能拿到不錯(cuò)的分?jǐn)?shù)。來源:上海新東方
