41、cationB.useC.utilityD.usage 解析:词义辨析题。这四个选项都有“应用,运用”的意思。application 指“(理论知识的)应用”,use 表示“工具等的使用”,utility 表示“实用,有效地使用某物使其发挥效用”,usage 侧重于“具体的用法”。结合句意“他在处理目标语言的过程中必须充实自己的语言储备,这可以是他的母语、经常_的语言和所属专业领域的知识以及对最新话题的了解”可知,此处是指经常使用的语言,故选 D。A.equipment B.languageC.performanceD.facility解析:词义辨析题。equipment 意为“设备,才能”,
42、language 意为“语言”。performance 意为“履行,执行”,facility 意为“容易,灵巧,设备”。结合句意“这可以说是他的职业_”以及上文提到的 excellent 和 up-to-date knowledge of his source languages 可知,此处指专业知识的装备,故选equipment。其他选项所说的内容都太小,不能够完全地概括出一个翻译人员所需要具备的素质。A.wiseB.uniqueC.desirable D.effective解析:词义辨析题。wise 意为“英明的”,unique 意为“独特的”,desirable 意为“理想的,合意的”,
43、effective 意为“有效的”。原文意为“除此之外,他还应具备不断求索的思维、广泛的兴趣、良好的记忆力以及快速掌握新生事物基本原理的能力,这样才是_”。此处承接上文,说明的是翻译人员应具备的能力要求,结合选项应填入 desirable。A.inputB.grasp C.seekD.expand解析:词义辨析题。input 意为“输入”,grasp 意为“抓紧,掌握”,seek 意为“寻求”,expand 意为“扩张,扩大”。填入的词与 basic principles(基本原理)构成搭配,选项 grasp 符合文意。A.on B.inC.forD.by解析:短语搭配题。根据句意“他应该愿意
44、_完成工作,而且通常速度很快,但他也应该谦虚十足地去_别人,因为自己的_对于做手头的工作并不总是够用的”,填入的词应与 his own 构成搭配,表达“独自,独立”之意,故选 A。on ones own 指“依靠自己的力量做某事”,of ones own 指“自己拥有的东西”。介词 by 与 for 通常不与 own 构成短语。A.learnB.imitateC.conductD.consult 解析:词义辨析题。learn 意为“学习”,imitate 意为“模仿,仿效”,conduct 意为“引导,管理”,consult 意为“商量,商议”。根据文意(见第 5 题解析)和常识可知,谦虚的表
45、现通常是“请教他人”,故应选 consult,consult with others 意为“向他人请教”。A.professionB.intelligenceC.knowledge D.style解析:词义辨析题。profession 意为“职业”,intelligence 意为“智力”,knowledge 意为“知识”,style 意为“风格,时尚”。从语法上看,四个选项都可填入,但结合句意(见第 5 题解析),可知选 C,即不够用的是知识,而不是风格或智力。A.steadilyB.accurately C.regularlyD.reasonably解析:词义辨析题。steadily 意为“
46、稳定地”,accurately 意为“正确地,精确地”,regularly 意为“有规律地”,reasonably 意为“适度地,相当地”。结合句意“他应该打字非常快并且非常_”以及下文的 proof-reading(校对)可判断这里填入的词应该有准确之意,故选 B。A.familiarityB.acquaintance C.knowledgeD.skill解析:短语搭配题。结合句意“如果他是为出版业工作,就不能对打字技巧和校对工作仅是_而已”来看选项,填入的词与 with 构成搭配,可先排除 knowledge 和 skill,剩下的 acquaintance 可与 with搭配构成固定短语
47、 have a nodding acquaintance with,意为“对略知一二”,故选B。familiarity 虽和 with 搭配表示“通晓,精通”,但前面的动词通常不用 have,而且所表达的意思也与原文不符。A.changeB.transformC.turnD.switch 解析:词义辨析题。change 意为“改变,变化”,transform 意为“转换,改变”,turn 意为“转动,转变方向”,switch 意为“转变,转换”。原句意为“如果他的工作基本上是做信息翻译,比如说,为一家工业公司做翻译,他就应该头脑灵活,能使自己快速地从一种源语言_另一种语言,以及从一个主题转向另
48、一个主题,因为这种工作常常_他有这种能力”。这四个词都有“转换、转变”的意思,但文中指的是两种语言间的转换,应该用 switch。A.another B.otherC.oneD.all解析:短语搭配题。文中指“从一种语言到另一种语言”,属于泛指,故用 another。from one to another 意为“从一个到另一个”。A.lackedB.required C.facedD.confronted解析:词义辨析题。lack 意为“缺乏”,require 意为“需要,要求”,face 意为“面向,面临”,confront 意为“使面临,对抗”。根据文意(见第 10 题解析),be req
49、uired of“需要,要求”最符合题意。be lack of“缺乏”;face 常用于 be faced up 的结构,意为“使面临”;confront 常用于 be confronted with 的搭配,意为“面临”。A.brainB.thoughtC.mind D.memory解析:短语搭配题。四个选项中,只有 mind 与 bear in 构成短语搭配,bear in mind 意为“记住”。该句意为“记住翻译工作的本质,即文字的加工处理,严格来说,能够说他所_的语言是_”。A.essentialB.unnecessary C.advantageousD.useless解析:词义辨析题。essential 意为“基本的,本质的”,unnecessary 意为“不必要的”,advantageous 意为“有利的”,useless 意为“无用的,无效的”。结合下文 If he does speak them.“如果他确实会说这些语言”(这里 does 用来表示强调)以及 but this skill is in many ways a luxury.“但这种技能从很多方面看都是一种奢侈”可知,他
