Practice 3  On his 10-day trip to Asia this week, President George W. Bush is likely to get a polite reception for his ambitious agenda. He wants to rally allies to the war on terror, the confrontation with North Korea and the expansion of transpacific trade. He’ll be asking Japan and China to allow their currencies to get stronger, so they will find it cheaper to buy more goods from struggling US manufacturers. Neither the Japanese nor the Chinese will say no outright, but they won’t say yes, either. Below the polite ambiguities, something disturbing is happening, at least from an American viewpoint.  For all its military power, political clout and economic might, America could be losing its influence in what is arguably the most dynamic region of the world. Big changes are happening in Asia, for which America’s policies are increasingly out of step. Washington’s preoccupations—-the mess in Iraq, the jobless recovery and the escalating fiscal deficit at home—are not Asia’s preoccupations. When Bush looks into the future, he sees an American Century with a troubled story line dominated by the fight against terror. When Asians look into the future, they see an Asian Century dominated by rising prosperity and the emergence of China, with terror a minor subplot.

Open Letter to an Editor

I had an interesting conversation with a reporter recently---one who works for you. In fact, he's one of your best reporters. He wants to leave.

Your reporter gave me a copy of his resume (简历) and photocopies of six stories that he wrote for you. The headlines showed you played them proudly. With great enthusiasm, he talked about how he finds issues (问题), approaches them, and writes about them, which tells me he is one of your best. I'm sure you would hate to lose him. Surprisingly, your reporter is not unhappy. In fact, he told me he really likes his job. He has a great assignment (分工), and said you run a great paper. It would be easy for you to keep him, he said. He knows that the paper values him. He appreciates the responsibility you've given him, takes ownership of his profession, and enjoys his freedom.

So why is he looking for a way out?

He talked to me because he wants his editors to demand so much more of him. He wants to be pushed, challenged, coached to new heights.

The reporter believes that good stories spring from good questions, but his editors usually ask how long the story will be, when it will be in, where it can play, and what the budget is.

He longs for conversations with an editor who will help him turn his good ideas into great ones. He wants someone to get excited about what he's doing and to help him turn his story idea upside down and inside out, exploring the best ways to report it. He wants to be more valuable for your paper. That's what you want for him, too, isn't it?

So your reporter has set me thinking.

Our best hope in keeping our best reporters, copy editors, photographers, artists---everyone--is to work harder to make sure they get the help they are demanding to reach their potential. If we can't do it, they'll find someone who can.

60. What does the writer think of the reporter?

A. Optimistic.

B. Imaginative.

C. Ambitious.

D. Proud.

G8 Summit

Leaders of the Group of Eight Major Industrialized Nations(G8)will meet in Scotland in July this year. Representatives from China,India,Mexico,South Africa and Brazil have also been invited.Here's what the G8 leaders want from the meeting.
British Prime Minister Tony Blair wants the G8 to cancel debt to the world's poorest' countries. He wants them to double aid to Africa to 50 billion pounds by 2010.He has also proposed reducing subsidies to Western farmers and removing restrictions on African exports.This has not got the approval of all members because it will hurt their agricultural interests.On climate change,Blair wants concerted(共同的)action by reducing carbon emissions(排放).
US President George W. Bush agrees to give help to Africa. But he says he doesn't like the idea of increasing aid to countries as it will increase corruption.Bush said he would not sign an agreement to cut greenhouse gas emissions at the summit,according to media. The US is the only G8 member not to have signed the Kyoto Protocol(《京都议定书》).Although the US is the world's biggest polluter,Bush so far refuses to believe there is sufficient scientific data to establish beyond a doubt that there is a problem.
French President Jacques Chirac supports Blair on Africa and climate change.He is determined to get the US to sign the climate change deal.
German Chancellor Gerhard Schroder remains doubtful of Blair's Africa proposals.Schroder's officials have dismissed the notion that money will solve Africa's problems as"old thinking".Berlin says that African states should only receive extra money if they can prove they've solved the corruption problem.
Russian President Vladimir Putin was doubtful about the value of more aid to Africa. But he has seen a way to make this work to his advantage.Putin intends to use the aid to Africa as a springboard(跳板)next year to propose aid to the former Soviet republics of Georgia, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Moldova.
Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi's priorities are a seat on the UN Security Council, for which he will be lobbying(游说)at the summit. And he's concerned about the Democratic People's Republic of Korea's nuclear weapons programme.

The G8 countries include China,India,Mexico,South Africa and Brazil.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned

答案:B
解析:
本题给出的信息是错误的。文章第一段提到:" Leaders of the Group of Eight Major Industrialized Nations(G8)will meet in Scotland in July this year.Representatives from China , India , Mexico , South Africa and Brazil have also been invited.”文章先说八大主要工业化国家的首脑参加,然后说中国、印度、墨西哥、南非和巴西这些国家也派代表参加,因此后者不属于八大主要工业化国家,与本题信息“八大主要工业化国家包括······”相反。
本题给出的信息是正确的。文章第二段末尾提到:" Blair wants concerted action by reducing carbon emissions.”这说明布莱尔希望共同行动减少碳排放,与本题信息一致。
本题给出的信息在文章中没有提及。文章只在第一段提到八大主要工业化国家的首脑参加,然后说中国、印度、墨西哥、南非和巴西这些国家也派代表参加,至于本题信息“印度接受邀请参加八国峰会”就不得而知了。
本题给出的信息是错误的。文章第三段开头提到:" US President George w.Bush agrees to give help to Africa.But he says he doesn't like the idea of increasing aid to coun-- tnes as it will increase corruption.”这说明虽然布什同意给予非洲帮助,但不同意提高援助,与本题信息“布什同意提高对非洲的援助”相反。
本题给出的信息是正确的。文章第四段提到:" French President Jacques Chirac supports Blair on Africa and climate change.”这说明希拉克在非洲和气候变化问题上支持布莱尔。本题信息“...takes a stand similar to...”的意思为“支持”。
本题给出的信息是错误的。文章第三段中间提到:" The US is the only G8 member not to have signed the Kyoto Protocol.”与本题信息“布什将在峰会上签署《京都议定书》”相反。
本题给出的信息在文章中没有提及。文章最后一段提到日本首相小泉纯一郎优先考虑的是在联合国安全理事会上的一个席位,而且他也关心有关朝鲜民主主义人民共和国的核武器计划。而本题信息“日本将反对布莱尔增加对非洲援助的建议”根本没有提及。

第6题:

By the end of his senior year, he was earning two hundred dollars a week writing science fiction, and his parents were reconciled to his pursuit of the literary life.


正确答案:

译文:到大四结束的时候,他每星期写科幻小说已经可以赚两百美元了,而他的双亲也接受了他对于文学生涯的追求。

本题考核知识点:顺译法和分词的翻译。

该句是and连接的并列句,其主干是he was earning... and his parents were...,可采用顺译的方法翻译。前一分句中,分词结构writing science fiction作方式状语,翻译时应置于谓语前面,译为“(通过)写科幻小说”。

词汇:be reconciled to意为“将就,妥协,接受”。

A Pay Rise or Not?
“Unless I get a rise.I'11 have a talk with the boss, Henry Manley,”George Strong said to himself. George liked his job and he liked the town he lived in,but his wife kept telling him that his pay was not enough to meet the needs of the family.That was why he was thinking of taking a job in Birmingham,a nearby city about 50 miles away.He had been offered a job in a factory there,and the pay was far better.
George lived in Wyeford,a medium-sized town .He really liked the place and didn't like the idea of moving somewhere else,but if he took the job in Birmingham,he would have to move his family there.
Henry Manley was the manager of a small company manufacturing electric motors.The corn-pany was in deep trouble because,among other reasons,the Japanese were selling such things at very low prices. As a result,Manley had to cut his own prices and profits as well. Otherwise he would not get any orders at all .Even then,orders were still not coming in fast enough,so that there was no money for raises(加工资)for his workers. Somehow ,he had to struggle along and keep his best workers as well.He sighed.Just then the phone rang.
His secretary told him that George Strong wanted to see him as soon as possible.Manley sighed again.He could guess what it was about.George Strong was a very young engineer. The company had no future unless it could attract and keep men like him.Manley rubbed his forehead (前额);his problems seemed endless.

Henry Manley was already deeply in debt.
A: Right
B: Wrong
C: Not mentioned

答案:C
解析:
题目说的是:Henry Manley早已负债累累。第三段说到公司困难重重,Manley不得不降低产品价格和减少利润。但文章只是说Manley利润减少,并没提到其负债。C正确:
题目说的是:在伯明翰提供给George Strong的工作报酬要好。第一段最后一句话是这么说的:那儿的一家工厂给他提供了一份工作,报酬要好得多。
题目说的是:George Strong接受在伯明翰的那份工作的话,他将不得不把他的家留在Wyeford。第二段是这么说的:……如果他接受在伯明翰的那份工作,他将不得不把他的家搬到那里。
题目说的是:Henry Manley的公司困难重重。第三段的第二句话是这么说的:“The company was in deep trouble because…”。
题目说的是:Henry Manley的公司获得的利润足以给工人增加工资。第三段的倒数第四句是这么说的:……没有钱给他的工人加工资。
题目说的是:Henry Manley压根儿不知道George Strong为什么要见他。最后一段的第三句是这么说的:他能猜到George Strong找他的原因。
题目说的是:George Strong是Henry Manley公司最好的工程师。最后一段是这么说的:George Strong是一个很年轻的工程师。公司除非把像他这样的人留住,否则是没有前途的。这些信息不足以推出“他是一个Henry Manley公司最好的工程师。”
