填空题Translate the following passage into Chinese．(南开大学2011年研，考试科目：专业英语)In the 1950s and 1960s, Mr. Chabrol was one of a handful of up-and-coming French filmmakers, who challenged moviemaking conventions and were collectively known as the French New Wave. In a career spanning more than a half-century, Mr. Chabrol made more than 55 feature films, including his most recent, " Bellamy, " a 2009 murder mystery starring Gerard Departdieu. Less overtly political and mind-bendingly experimental than his counterparts , Mr. Chabrol was best known for mastering the art of suspense and for sardonically highlighting, the desperation and violence beneath the placid facade of bourgeois life." If one sentence or phrase could sum up ChabroFs view of the middle class world, it"s that the world is all full of rules, correctness and etiquette...and just below the surface there is horror and chaos, " said film scholar David Sterritt. "He was making movies that were marvelously entertaining and still had that edge, that twist—" I"m making you smile, you in the audience, but at the same time I"m skewering exactly the kind of life that you and I lead as proper middle class people.""

填空题 Back when we were kids, the hours spent with friends were too numerous to count. There were marathon telephone conversations, all-night studying and giggling sessions. Even after boyfriends entered the picture, our best friends remained irreplaceable. And time was the means by which we nurtured those friendships. Now as adult women we never seem to have enough time for anything. Husbands, kids, careers and avocations-all require attention; too often, making time for our friends comes last on the list of priorities. And yet, ironically, we need our friends as much as ever in adulthood. A friendship network is absolutely crucial for our well-being as adults. We have to do the hard work of building and sustaining the network. Here are some important ways for accomplishing this. {{B}}Let go of your less central friendships.{{/B}} Many of our friendships were never meant to last a lifetime. It's natural that some friendships have time limits. Furthermore, now everyone has a busy social calendar, so pull back from some people that you don't really want to draw close to and give the most promising friendship a fair chance to grow. (41) {{B}}Be willing to "drop everything" when you' re truly needed. {{/B}} You may get a call from a friend who is really depressed over a certain problem when you are just sitting down to enjoy a romantic dinner with your husband. This is just one of those instances when a friend's needs mattered more. (42) {{B}}Take advantage of the mails. {{/B}} Nearly all of us have pals living far away-friends we miss very much. Given the limited time available for visits and the high price of phone calls, writing is a fine way to keep in touch-and makes both sender and receiver feel good. (43) {{B}}Risk expressing negative feelings. {{/B}} When time together is tough to come by, it's natural to want the mood during that time to be upbeat. And many people fear that others will think less of you if you express the negative feelings like anger and hurt. (44) {{B}}Don't make your friends' problems your own. {{/B}} Sharing your friend's grief is the way you show deep friendship.{{B}} Never underestimate the value of loyalty. {{/B}} Loyalty has always been rated as one of the most desired qualities in friends. True loyalty can be a fairly subtle thing. Some people feel it means that, no matter what, your friend will always take your side. But real loyalty is being accepting the person, not necessarily of certain actions your friend might take. (45) {{B}}Give the gift of time as often as time allows. {{/B}} Time is what we don't have nearly enough of-and yet, armed with a little ingenuity, we can make it to give it to our friends. The last but not the least thing to keep a friendship alive is to say to your friends "I miss you and love you." Saying that at the end of a phone conversation, or a visit, or writing it on a birthday card, can sustain your friendship for the times you aren't together. [A] But taking on your friend's pain doesn't make that pain go away. There's a big difference between empathy or recognizing a friend's pain, and over identification, which makes the sufferer feel even weaker-"I must be in worse pain than I even thought, because the person I'm confiding in is suffering so much!" Remember troubled people just need their friends to stay grounded in their own feelings. [B] Remember honesty is the key to keeping a friendship real. Sharing your pain will actually deepen a friendship. [C] Besides, letters, cards and postcards have the virtue of being tangible-friends can them and reread them for years to come. [D] The trick is remembering that a little is better than none and that you can do two things at once. For instance, if you both go for a weekly aerobics, go on the same day. If you both want to go on vocation, schedule the same destination. [E] Careful listening, clear writing, close reading, plain speaking, and accurate description-will be invaluable. In tomorrow's fast-paced business environment there will be precious little time to correct any misunderstandings. Communications breakdown may well become a fatal corporate disease. [F] Sometimes, because of our unbreakable commitments or other circumstances, we simply can't give a needy friend the time we'd like. If you can't be there at that given moment, say something like, "I wish I could be with you-I can hear that you're in pain. May I call you tomorrow?" Be sure your friend knows she's cared about.

填空题Recently, French taxi drivers paralysed Paris in protest against Uber, a ride-sharing service, and attacked a few Uber cars for good measure. From Uber"s point of view, all this is but a minor inconvenience: Paris is just one of 300 cities it serves. Far more worrying is what is happening in the company"s own backyard in San Francisco. The California Labour Commissioner ruled that Uber owes a former driver, Berwick, $ 4,152, mostly in expenses, on the ground that she was an employee rather than, as Uber claims, an independent contractor. 1 Uber is not the only big American company whose business model may be upended by employment law. Last year the National Labour Relations Board"s general counsel said he would treat McDonald"s as a joint employer, together with franchisees, of staff in the chain"s franchised restaurants. This opinion will soon be tested in a case brought by ten employees who claim that they were sacked by a franchisee in Virginia on racial grounds. 2 Uber has to confront state governments which stand to gain sizeable tax revenues if on-demand workers are classified as employees. McDonald"s has to wrestle with the Service Employees International Union, which has been trying for years to unionise fast-food restaurants. The legal situation seems to be murky in both cases. A pro-Uber lawyer could argue that the firm is essentially little more than a marketmaker that provides a forum for buyers and sellers of rides to come together. 3 Likewise, a pro-McDonald"s lawyer could argue that it is the franchisees who hire and fire workers, and who run the business from day to day. An anti-McDonald"s lawyer could point to the detailed rules that the company lays down on how workers in franchised restaurants are trained and how they should serve customers. 4 The post-war growth of franchising, and the expansion of companies that used freelance door-to-door sellers, began to blur the distinction. Now, the "on-demand" economy is all but obliterating it, by letting people sell their labour and rent out their assets—from cars to apartments—in a series of short-term assignments arranged by smartphone app. That the law is so dated suggests that judges should exercise as light a touch as possible. 5 Forcing McDonald"s to become a co-employer would expose those franchisees to coordinated union action and make it much more difficult for them to respond to local circumstances. A. Both Uber and McDonald"s are up against powerful interest groups that are capable of both fighting prolonged legal battles and playing on the public"s heartstrings. B. Uber"s drivers, and their peers at on-demand firms, would get expenses and other benefits if they were declared employees—but they would have less flexibility over working hours and, more important, the increased cost of employing them might mean fewer jobs. C. If the rulings go against the company, its labour costs may rise significantly, as it is forced to pay drivers" social security and other benefits as well as their expenses. Its valuation, which is currently above $ 40 billion, may suffer. D. The fundamental problem is that in America, as in many other rich countries, employment law has failed to keep up with the changing realities of modern work. In those days a far larger proportion of American men worked in manufacturing; most women did not work; and the difference between employees, who worked full-time for a company, and contractors, who were typically tradesmen such as plumbers, seemed much clearer. E. The most important thing to remember about the on-demand economy is that it has been a dramatic success not just for consumers but also for workers seeking flexibility. That is why Uber"s number of drivers has been doubling every six months for the past couple of years. F. The franchise model has thrived because it allows local entrepreneurs to join forces with a global goliath to scale up their businesses quickly while operating them according to local labour-market conditions. G. They are free to work for rivals, such as Lyft. An anti-Uber lawyer could retort that the company exercises considerable control over its workers. It screens them for criminal records, and weeds out those who get poor reviews from passengers.

填空题English-Chinese Translation(华中师范大学2011研，考试科目：写作翻译)Torcello, which used to be lonely as a cloud, has recently become an outing from Venice. Many more visitors than it can comfortably hold pour into it, off the regular steamers, off chartered motor-boats, and off yachts: all day they amble up the towpath, looking for what? The cathedral is decorated with early mosaics-scenes from hell, much restored, and a great sad, austere Madonna: Byzantine art is an acquired taste and probably not one in ten of the visitors have acquired it. They wander into the church and look round aimlessly. They come out on to the village green and photograph each other in a stone armchair, said to be the throne of Attila. They relentlessly tear at the wild roses which one has seen in bud and longed to see in bloom and which for a day have scented the whole island. As soon as they are picked the roses fade and are thrown into the canal. The Americans visit the inn to eat or drink something. The English declare that they can"t afford to do this. They take food which they have brought with them into the vineyard and I am sorry to say leave the devil of a mess behind them. Every Thursday Germans come up the towpath, marching as to war, with a Leader. There is a standing order for fifty luncheons at the inn:while they eat the Leader lectures them through a megaphone. After luncheon they march into the cathedral and undergo another lecture. They, at least, know what they are seeing. Then they march back to their boat. They are tidy: they leave no litter.
