3、overwhelmingly poor. Over the last few decades, as scientists have intensified their study of the human effects on climate and of the effects of climate change on humans, a common theme has emerged: in both respects, the world is a very unequal place. In almost every instance, the people most at ris

4、k from climate change live in countries that have contributed the least to the atmospheric buildup of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases linked to the recent warming of the planet. Those most vulnerable countries also tend to be the poorest. And the countries that face the least harmand that

Lack of water often means drinking waters not safe. Mr. Engelman says there are problems all over the w

6、orld because of diseases, such as cholera, which are carried in water. Lack of water may also result in more international conflict. Countries may have to compete for water in the future. Some countries now get sixty percent of their fresh water from other countries. This is true of Egypt, the Nethe

7、rlands, Cambodia, Syria, Sudan, and Iraq. And the report says lack of water would affect the ability of developing to improve their economies. This is because new industries often need a large amount of water when they are beginning. The Population Action International study gives several solutions

8、to the water problem. One way, it says, is to find ways to use water for more than one purpose. Another way is to teach people to be careful not to waste water. A third way is to use less water of agriculture.（分数：10.00）_3.Last Sunday, Chinas central bank governor Zhou Xiaochuan said if necessary, th

9、e nation will consider widening the yuans trading band. But any change in the yuans floating band will depend on the global economic situation and its not the only tool the country would use to make its currency moreflexible, Zhou said at the Group of 20 meeting in Cape Town, South Africa. China wid

10、ened the yuans daily trading band against the U.S. dollar from plus or minus 0.3 percent to 0.5 percent in May. However, market observers said some commercial banks are ordered by the central bank to hand in reserve requirements in foreign currencies next week, which will translate into demand for t

11、he U.S. dollar.

12、d, a few hundred miles from the North Pole. Over the next few weeks, the huge cavernbacked by the Norwegian government and the Gates Foundationwill be filled with more than a million types of seed and will be officially opened in February next year. “This will be the last refuge for the worlds crops

13、,“ said Cary Fowler, of the Rome-based Global Crop Diversity Trust, which is building the vault. “There are seed banks in various countries round the globe, but several have been destroyed or badly damaged in recent years. We need a place that is politically and environmentally safe if we are going

14、to feed the planet as it gets hotter.“ About 500 seeds from about 1.5 million types of cropdonated by individual countrieswill be placed in envelopes and about 400-500 of these envelopes are stored in a single box. Boxes will then be stacked like library books along shelves inside the vaults.（分数：10.

15、00）_5.Cohen and his colleagues had found in a previous study that happier people seemed less susceptible to catching a cold, but some questions remained as to whether the emotional trait itself had the effect. For the new study, the researchers had 193 healthy adults complete standard measures of pe

16、rsonality traits, self-perceived health and emotional “style.“ Those who tended to be happy, energetic and easy-going were judged as having a positive emotional style, while those who were often unhappy, tense and hostile had a negative style. The researchers gave them nasal drops containing either

17、a cold virus or a particular flu virus. Over the next six days, the volunteers reported on any aches, pains, sneezing or congestion they had, while the researchers collected objective data, like daily mucus production. Cohen and his colleagues found that based on objective measures of nasal woes, ha

18、ppy people were less likely to develop a cold.（分数：10.00）_6.In the 1990s, people are very aware of how bad things are. As a result, they completely ignore information about new developments and crises to prevent themselves from going “crazy“. Todays leaders should therefore provide people with a sens

19、e that current problems are soluble (可以解决的). We need to break large-scale crises down to small manageable pieces rather than cause people to believe that the situation is even more complex and difficult that they thought. People need to believe that they can really do something within their own situ

20、ation, and to do this, they must recognize that it is in their self-interest to change their behavior.（分数：10.00）_7.Where is the boundary between human mind and machine? If the test were reasoning ability, the computer would be our superior. But logic alone does not make a first-class mind. In our co

21、mplicated world straightforward reasoning doesnt always work. As is known to all, productive thought requires not just the rules of logic but a wealth of experience and background information, plus the ability to generalize and interpret new experiences using that information. A genius like Einstein

22、 is produced only after many years of study, which is the period of time needed to lay foundations for a creative mind.（分数：10.00）_8.Banks are closely concerned with the flow of money into and out of the economy. They often co-operate with governments in efforts to stabilize economies and to prevent

23、inflation. They are specialists in the business of providing capital, and in allocating funds on credit. Banks originated as places to which people took their valuables for safe-keeping, but today the great banks of the world have many functions in addition to acting as guardians of valuable private

24、 possessions. We can say that the primary function of a bank today is to act as an intermediary between depositors who wish to make interest on their savings, and borrowers who wish to obtain capital. The bank is a reservoir of loanable money, with streams of money flowing in and out. For this reaso

25、n, economists and financiers often talk of money being “liquid“, or of the “liquidity“ of money.（分数：10.00）_9.Many companies may be cutting expenses as much as possible, but arts sponsorship is doing better than ever. The trend is steadily upwards. Sponsorship overall now takes up perhaps $50 million

26、, or three times as much as it did five years ago. Most of that may go on sportbut the spending on arts has risen the fastest of all and may now be worth $4 million a year. The extra help is easy to explain. Banks, insurance companies, the oil industry and tobacco firms provide three quarters of fun

27、ds going into arts sponsorship. All four groups tend to be unpopularwhich makes them all the keener to display their social concern and so build up some good will.（分数：10.00）_10.The free market economy is no doubt the primary stimulus that has led to the United States dominance in the world economic

28、community. By naturally rewarding those producers that excel, excellence is actively encouraged and those that inefficiently produce goods or services are eliminated; thus, the economy becomes a self-sustaining and self-maintaining machine, consistently and constantly achieving the best possible res

29、ult. The free market economy is entirely based on the principle of supply and demand. Under this concept, consumers decide for themselves which companies will stay in business, voting with their dollars by spending on those businesses they consider most worthy. By doing so, those companies that are

30、best liked, or most in demand, are granted the privilege of supplying the goods and services that consumers pay for. In that sense, efficiency is achieved. For those companies that best perform to the expectations of consumers are left prosperous in the market, while their less efficient counterpart

31、s simply die out of the market, starved of the dollars of consumers who simply prefer not to buy their products.（分数：10.00）_MBA 联考英语-英译汉综合练习(一)-1 答案解析(总分：100.00，做题时间：90 分钟)一、B翻译题/B(总题数：10，分数：100.00)1.The worlds richest countries, which have contributed by far the most to the atmospheric changes linke

36、工业大国早就作出承诺要帮助贫穷国家应付全球变暖，但目前他们花在帮助全球最弱势地区来遏制气候和海岸灾害上的资金才不过几千万美元。这些地区大部分位于赤道附近，极其贫穷。 在过去几十年里，随着关于人类活动对气候的影响，以及气候变化对人类的影响的研究不断深入，科学家们开始形成一种共识：从以上两个方面考虑，地球其实是一个非常不公平的地方。 不管从何种角度分析，最容易受到气候变化影响的人往往是那些居住在排放二氧化碳和其他温室气体最少的国家的人。那些最弱势的国家往往也是最贫穷的国家。而面临威胁最小的国家拥有精良装备抵御危害的国家却通常是最富有的国家。2.The report says lack of wat

A third way is to use less water of agriculture.（分数：10.00）_正确答案：()解析：报告表明，在未来，水资源的缺乏可能会导致一些严重的后果。首先，它可能会产生更多的健康问题。水资源的缺乏就意味着饮用水不再安全。安格曼先生说，全世界很多问题是由诸如霍乱等在水中传播的疾病引起的。水缺乏也会引起更多的国际纷争，将来各国可能由于水资源而发生争夺。现在有些国家，如埃及、荷兰、柬埔寨、叙利亚、苏丹和伊拉克等，他们 60%的淡水都来自别的国家。报告认为，水缺乏将影

41、响国家发展经济的能力。这是因为新工业在开始阶段经常需要大量的水。 国际人口行动组织的研究报告为世界的水短缺问题提出了几种解决办法。第一，找到“一水多用”的方法。第二，教育人们不要浪费水资源。第三就是减少农业用水。3.Last Sunday, Chinas central bank governor Zhou Xiaochuan said if necessary, the nation will consider widening the yuans trading band.

44、数：10.00）_正确答案：()解析：上周日，中国中央银行行长周小川表示，如果有必要，中国将考虑扩大人民币的浮动区间。 周小川在南非开普敦召开的 20 国集团会议上说，调整人民币浮动汇率区间是由世界经济形势所决定的，而且这也不是国家增强货币弹性的唯一工具。 五月，中国人民币对美元汇率的日波幅从0.3%扩大到0.5%。 然而，市场观察家认为，各商业性银行服从中央银行的命令将从下周起加强外汇储备。这将影响市场对美元的需求，并在未来一段时间内缓和人民币对美元汇率的升值速度。4.Engineers last week finished a work on one of the worlds most
