填空题Translate the following passage into Chinese.Write your translation on the Answer Sheet.(北京第二外国语学院2011研,考试科目:基础英语)Austerity is a word much found on the lips of politicians and economists at the moment: but it is seldom heard from technologists. And although the idea that "less is more" has many adherents in architecture, design and fashion, the technology industry has historically espoused the opposite view. Products should have as many features as possible: and next year"s version should have even more. As prices fall, what starts off as a fancy new feature quickly becomes commonplace—try buying a phone without a camera, or a car without electric windows-prompting companies to add new features in an effort to outdo their rivals. Never mind if nobody uses most of these new features. In an arms race, more is always more.关键词提示:1. austerity:simplicity and plainness, without any decorations.2. espouse:to give one"s support to.

填空题Translate the following into English.(上海师范大学2007研,考试科目:综合英语) 我的电脑还没联网,也想过要和Internet联上,据说,网上黄毒泛滥,还有些反动的东西在传播,这些说法把我吓住了。前些时候有人建议对网络加以限制,我很赞成,说实在的,哪能容许信息自由地传播。但假如我对这件事还有点了解,我要说:除了一剪子剪掉,没有什么限制的方法。那东西太快,太邪门了。现代社会信息爆炸,想要审查太困难,不如禁止方便。假如我做生意,或者搞科技,没有网络会有些困难。但我何必为商人、工程师们操心?在信息高速网上,海量的信息在流动。但是我,一个爬格子的,不知道它们也能行。所以,把Internet剪掉罢了,省得我听了心烦。

填空题Translate the Following into English.(浙江工商大学2009研,考试科目:翻译与写作) 我觉得时辰钟是人生最好的象征了。时辰钟的针,平常一看总觉得是“不动”的,其实人造物中最常动的无过于时辰钟的针了。日常生活中的人生也如此,刻刻觉得我是我。似乎这“我”永远不变,实则与时辰钟的针一样地无常!一息尚存,总觉得我还是我,我没有变,还是留连着我的生,可怜受尽“渐”的欺骗。 “渐”的本质是“时间”,一般人对于时间的悟性,似乎只够支配搭船、乘车的短时间;对于百年的长时间的寿命,他们不能胜任,往往迷于局部而不能顾及全体。
填空题The theory of conversational implicature was proposed by______.(中山大学2008研)
填空题At every turn, we see cutting edge ideas and technology, born perhaps in a college laboratory or a library, through the spark of a professor, the curiosity of a student, the dynamism of a classroom. The United Nations understands the enormous impact of scholarship, innovation and ideas. We are trying to harness that great power to build a better world. A world where human ingenuity will make our homes, communities and consumption patterns socially and environmentally sustainable. A world where research receives the funding and support it needs to defeat disease, deprivation and despair. A world where the" unlearning" of intolerance will bridge barriers that still divide nations and peoples.Promoting and advancing these goals is the essence of the United Nations Academic Impact. We have been laying the groundwork for this initiative for some time now, with great support from the academic community. It will help serve as a clearing house to better match academic innovation with particular areas of work of the United Nations— neglected areas of research, countries in need of specific help, research that will help deliver concrete change on the ground, and the best ideas to achieve the Millennium Development Goals by 2015. We can do together in the future. The UN and the academic community already enjoy a strong partnership. Academic Impact will deepen it further for the twenty-first century. We know about corporate social responsibility in the business world. The Academic Impact aims to generate a global movement of minds to promote a new culture of "intellectual social responsibility. "It is animated by a commitment to certain bedrock principles. Among them: freedom of inquiry, opinion and speech, educational opportunity for all, global citizenship, sustainability and dialogue. The United Nations stands ready to be an active partner with you in ensuring that your knowledge, skills and scholarship advance our universal goals of peace, development and human rights. Thank you for coming together in support of these noble goals.

填空题Translate the following two passages into English. 我深深爱着的祖国——历经磨难而又自强不息。 千百年来,中华民族一次次战胜了天灾人祸,渡过了急流险滩,昂首挺胸地走到今天。深重的灾难,铸就了她百折不挠、自强不息的品格。中华民族的历史证明了一个真理:一个民族在灾难中失去的,必将从民族的进步中得到补偿。 经过半个多世纪的艰苦奋斗,中国有了比较大的发展,经济总量跃居世界前列,但我们仍然是一个发展中国家,同发达国家相比还有很大的差距。人口多,底子薄,发展不平衡,这种基本国情还没有从根本上得到改变。中国的人均GDP水平,排在世界100位之后,仅为英国的1/16左右。到过中国旅游的朋友,你们所看到的城市是现代的,而我们的农村还比较落后。 到本世纪中叶,中国要基本实现现代化,面临三大历史任务:既要努力实现欧洲早已完成的工业化,又要追赶新科技革命的浪潮;既要不断提高经济发展水平,又要实现社会公平正义;既要实现国内的可持续发展,又要承担相应的国际责任。中国要赶上发达国家水平,还有很长很长的路要走,还会遇到许多艰难险阻。但是,任何困难都阻挡不住中国人民前进的步伐,只要我们坚持不懈地努力奋斗,中国现代化的目标就一定能够实现。

填空题Please read the following passage and translate it into English.(北京外国语大学2012研,考试科目:综合技能测试) 书本究竟能够给我们什么,几乎没有人探究过这个问题。在我们读书的时候,最常见的情况是,我们思想不明确,目标不一致。逢小说便要求其真实,逢诗歌又指望它虚幻。认为传记必会吹捧,而史书一定附会我们自己的偏见。如果我们在读书时能够摒弃这些成见,那就会是阅读的良好起点。不要对作者发号施令,而应该试着去设身处地替他设想,与他合作,同他共谋。如果你一开始便却步矜持,有所保留,动辄挑剔,那么书中可能蕴含的精义,便无法充分领悟了。而如果敞开心胸,虚怀若谷,透过开篇迂回曲折的字里行间,领悟到那细腻微妙、几乎难以觉察到的迹象与暗示,那一与众不同的人便呈现在我们眼前了。

In his autobiography, Darwin himself speaks of his
intellectual powers with extraordinary modesty. He points out that he always
experienced much difficulty in expressing himself clearly and concisely, but
(46) {{U}}he believes that this very difficulty may have had the compensating
advantage of forcing him to think long and intently about every sentence, and
thus enabling him to detect errors in reasoning and in his own observations{{/U}}.
He disclaimed the possession of any great quickness of apprehension or wit, such
as distinguished Huxley. (47) {{U}}He asserted, also, that his power to follow a
long and purely abstract train of thought was very limited, for which reason he
felt certain that he never could have succeeded with mathematics{{/U}}. His
memory, too, he described as extensive, but hazy. So poor in one sense was if
that he never could remember for more than a few days a single date or a line of
poetry. (48) {{U}}On the other hand, he did not accept as well founded the charge
made by some of his critics that, while he was a good observer, he had no power
of reasoning{{/U}}. This, he thought, could not be true, because the "Origin of
species" is one long argument from the beginning to the end, and has convinced
many able men. NO one, he submits, could have written it without possessing some
power of reasoning. He was willing to assert that "I have a fair share of
invention, and of common sense or judgment, such as every fairly successful
lawyer or doctor must have, but not, I believe, in any higher degree." (49)
{{U}}He adds humbly that perhaps he was "superior to the common run of men in
noticing things which easily escape attention, and in observing them
carefully{{/U}}." Writing in the last year of his life, he
expressed the opinion that in two or three respects his mind had changed during
the preceding twenty or thirty years. Up to the age of thirty or beyond it
poetry of many kinds gave him great pleasure. Formerly, too, pictures had given
him considerable, and music very great, delight. In 1881, however, he said: "Now
for many years I cannot endure to read a line of poetry. I have also almost lost
my taste for pictures or music." (50) {{U}}Darwin was convinced that the loss of
these tastes was not only a loss of happiness, but might possibly be injurious
to the intellect, and more probably to the moral character{{/U}}.
填空题Author____Title____ At other times, the like battles have been fought between the Yahoos of several neighborhoods, without any visible cause: those of one district watching all opportunities to surprise the next, before they are prepared. But if they find their project has miscarried they return home, and, for want of enemies, engage in what I call a civil war among themselves.
