23、总题数:1,分数:1.00)_翻译资格考试三级综合能力(口译)5 答案解析(总分:7.00,做题时间:120 分钟)一、PART 1 (20 points, (总题数:1,分数:1.00)(1).The black people did not vote in America in 1941.(分数:0.10)A.TrueB.False 解析:理解推断。根据原文“When Henry turned twenty-one,he was legally allowed to vote,but in Davidson County in 1941,blacks could not vote”,译文为
24、:亨利 2l 岁以后,从法律上他有了选举权。但是 1941 年在戴维逊郡,黑人还是不能参与选举。题干表述与原文不符,根据原文不能推断出1941 年在美国黑人没有选举权。(2).When Henry turned twenty-one, he drove to the courthouse to vote.(分数:0.10)A.TrueB.False 解析:细节信息。根据原文“One night,after he had turned twenty-one,Henry put his father and five other people in his fathers Model A Ford
25、 and drove to the house of the voting registrar”译文为:在他过了 21 岁后,一天晚上,亨利驾驶父亲的福特 A 型车,载着父亲和其它五个人,开车到了选举登记员的家里。本题关键是理解 the house of the voting registrar,意思是:选举登记员的家中。题干表述中亨利驾车到了法院,与原文的细节不符。(3).The registrar had decided not to enter the black peoples names in the voting book.(分数:0.10)A.True B.False解析:理解推
26、断。根据原文“The registrar was prepared for thisHe saidHenry be able to read the Constitution of the United StatesHenry picked it up and read itThe registrar looked at Henry and realized he had no choice”,译文为:登记员对此早有准备,他说亨利必须能读懂美国的宪法亨利拿起就读。登记员看着亨利,意识到他已别无选择。据此可以推断书记员本来是决定不把黑人加入选举名单的,但亨利符合条件,所以他没有办法。题干使用的是
27、过去完成时,表示过去的打算,所以是正确的。(4).In order to register, people had to understand the Constitution of the United States.(分数:0.10)A.True B.False解析:虚拟语气。根据原文“He said the literacy regulation required that Henry be able to read the Constitution of the United States”,译文为:他(登记员)说读写能力规则要求亨利能够读懂美国的宪法。此句是虚拟语气,表示应具备的能力
28、,所以题干表述是正确的。(5).According to the passage, only literate people could vote.(分数:0.10)A.True B.False解析:理解推断。根据原文的多处信息,如“I believe you ought to register these folksTheyre able to readNot all of your folks coming in here can read”,译文为:我认为你应当为这些人注册登记,他们都能够读书。不是所有到这儿来的白人都可以读书。据此可以推断出,只有会读写的人才能取得选举权,题干表述是正确
29、的。(6).Henry was the first black person to vote in his county.(分数:0.10)A.TrueB.False 解析:细节信息。根据原文“He was the first black to register in the county”,译文为:他是这个郡第一个登记注册选举权的黑人。题干表述是亨利是第一个投票的人,原文并没有提到,所以是错误的。(7).Henrys father and five other black people were also registered to vote that night.(分数:0.10)A.Tr
30、ue B.False解析:理解推断。根据原文“The second was his father,because Henry would not leave until his fathers name,and the names of the five others,were put in the book”,译文为:第二个是他的父亲,因为直到他父亲的名字还有其他五个人的名在被登记在册,他才会离开。据此可以推断出亨利的父亲和同去的五个人都注册了选举权,所以题干表述是正确的。(8).The next day the clerk refused to register the people He
31、nry brought in because they were not able to read.(分数:0.10)A.TrueB.False 解析:理解推断。根据原文“Henry brought more people to the courthouse,where he faced a different clerk who refused to register the peopleHenry told him,I believe you ought to register these folksTheyre able to readNot all of your folks comi
32、ng in here can read”,译文为:亨利带着更多的人到了法院,这儿的登记员拒绝为这些人注册。亨利告诉他“我认为你应当为这些人注册登记,他们都能够读书。不是所有到这儿来的白人都可以读书。”根据上下文来推断如果来的人会读写的话,登记员是不能拒绝的,所以题干表述是错误的。(9).Not all the white people coming to register could read.(分数:0.10)A.True B.False解析:理解推断。根据原文“Not all of your folks coming in here can read”,译文为:不是所有到这儿来的白人都可以
33、读书。本题关键是理解 folks 指的就是白人,和登记员他们一类的人,即歧视黑人的人。据此推断题干表述是正确的。(10).Henry finally managed to get all the black people in his county registered.(分数:0.10)A.TrueB.False 解析:理解推断。根据原文“Henry got the people registered”,译文为:亨利使这些人都登记注册了。这些人指的是亨利带去注册的人,而不是整个郡的黑人,题干表述扩大了原文的所指范围,所以是错误的。二、SECTION 2 (10 point(总题数:1,分数:
34、1.00)(1).Which of the following statements is true according to what you have heard?(分数:0.10)A.I will eat lunch very quickly. B.I will have lunch before the meeting.C.I will eat lunch at the meeting.D.I will eat lunch while jogging.解析:固定搭配。根据原文“Since I have a meeting around noon,I will eat my lunch
35、on the run”关键在于理解固定搭配 on the run。On the run:hurrying busily from place to place,意指匆忙地,所以 a 选项“I will eat lunch very quickly。”是对原文的正确解释。而 d 选项则为干扰项,把 on the run 理解为 running 的意思,并用同义词 jogging 来代替了 running,具有迷惑性。(2).What did he do?(分数:0.10)A.He telephoned me.B.He picked up the phone.C.He put the receiv
36、er down. D.He put my hanger up.解析:电话场景,固定搭配。根据原文“He hung up on me”,关键在于理解固定搭配 hang up。hang up:to end up a telephone conversation,意指:挂断电话。选项 C“He put the receiver down”是对原文的正确解释,意指:把 receiver(听筒)放下。b 选项为“他拿起电话。”,d 选项为“他举起我的衣架(hanger)。”(3).When can I go to see her?(分数:0.10)A.On weekends.B.Whenever I w
37、ant. C.Anytime except weekends.D.When she wants to see me.解析:同义替换。根据原文“She went on to say that I could come to see her anytime”,译文为:她接着说我在任何时候都能去看她。b 选项用 whenever 代替了 anytime。(4).Who is going to London?(分数:0.10)A.Mary.B.Susan and Mary.C.Susan. D.Neither Susan nor Mary.解析:词义理解。根据原文“Susan and Mary are
38、 going to London and New York respectively”,译文为:苏姗和玛丽分别去伦敦和纽约。关键在于理解副词 respectively,respectively 的意思是:各自地,依次地。例如:My two sons,Adam and Alexander,are five and nine respectively。(5).Which of the following statements is true about his friend?(分数:0.10)A.Writing exhausts his friend.B.His friend collects a
39、 lot of things to write.C.His friend always has enough material to write on. D.His friend is doing research to write a paper.解析:固定搭配。根据原文“His friend never runs out of things to write”,译文为:他朋友的写作素材永远不会枯竭(用完)。关键在于理解固定搭配 run out of,run out of 的意思是:用完,耗光。C 选项是对原文的正确解释。a 选项“Writing exhausts his friend(写作
40、耗尽了他朋友的灵感。)”正是对原文的否定。exhaust 意思是:用完,耗尽。(6).What is suggested for your investment?(分数:0.10)A.Distributing your money among different companies.B.Investigating the company before investment. C.Dont invest all your money.D.Comparing different companies before investment.解析:同义替换。根据原文“It would be a good
41、idea to look into the company before you invest all your money”,译文为:在你把所有的钱进行投资之前,最好对这家公司做调查。关键在于理解固定搭配 look into,look into 意思是:调查,与 b 选项中的 investigate 是同义词,正确选项是对原文的同义替换。(7).What did the person do during the vacation?(分数:0.10)A.Stayed at home. B.Exhausted myself.C.Hardly had any rest.D.Dont know.解析
42、:细节信息。根据原文“I stayed at home for some much needed rest during the vacation”,译文为:假期里我待在家里做了必要的休息。a 选项直接再现了原文的表达 stayed at home。(8).What is said about the research paper?(分数:0.10)A.The paper came out as short as I expected.B.Actually the paper was long enough to cover it.C.The paper was short enough to
43、 present.D.The paper turned out better than I had expected. 解析:比较结构。根据原文“The research paper was very brief, but still it was better than I expected.”,译文为:这篇论文很简短,但仍然比我预想的好。此题关键在于理解 brief 的词义和转折连词 but 之后的比较级结构。brief 的意思是:简洁的,简短的。a 选项“The paper came out as short as I expected”,这篇论文写出后和我预想的一样短。b 选项“Act
44、ually the paper was long enough to cover it”,实际上这篇论文足够长,能涵盖所有要点。C 选项“The paper was short enough to present”,这篇论文很短,足够做报告。d 选项“The paper turned out better than I had expected”,这篇论文结果比我预想的要好。(9).Generally speaking, how many students fail this course?(分数:0.10)A.A few. B.Many.C.None.D.All.解析:词义理解。根据原文“S
45、tudents occasionally fail this course”,译文为:学生们偶尔通不过这门课。此题关键在于理解 occasionally 的词义,occasionally 意思是:有时候,偶尔,因此可以推断只有少数通不过。(10).How big is the house he moved in?(分数:0.10)A.As big as the old one.B.Twice as big as mine. C.As big as mine.D.Twice bigger than mine.解析:比较结构。根据原文“he has lived in a house twice a
46、s big as mine”,译文为:他住的房子是我的房子的两倍。b 选项再现了原文的 as big as 结构。d 选项最具迷惑性,Twice bigger than mine,译文应为:比我的房子大两倍,即是我的房子的三倍。三、PART 2 (30 points, (总题数:3,分数:3.00)(1).When is an ordinary tropical storm called a hurricane?(分数:0.20)A.When it begins in the Atlantic and Caribbean seas.B.When it hits the coastline.C.
47、When it is more than 75 miles wide.D.When its winds reach 75 miles per hour. 解析:细节信息。题干:一种普通的热带风暴在何时被称为飓风?根据原文“circling winds of 75 miles per hour or more that give them hurricane status”,译文为:风速为每小时 75 英里或超过75 英里的盘旋的风暴获得了飓风的地位。所以选 d。(2).What is the worst thing about hurricanes?(分数:0.20)A.The destruc
48、tive effects of water. B.The heat they release.C.The powerful movement of the sea.D.Their strong winds.解析:理解推断。题干:飓风发生时最糟糕的是什么?根据原文“Water,not wind,is the main source of death and destruction in a hurricaneA typical hurricane brings 6- to 12-inch downpours resulting in sudden floodsWorst of all is the powerful movement of the seathe mountains of water moving toward”,译文为:在飓风
