14、1.The tiny Isle of Man in the Irish Sea is not known as a vanguard of technology, but this month it was to serve as the test bed for the highly acclaimed third-generation mobile phones.

25、.（分数：60.00）_正确答案：()解析：男人岛，这个爱尔兰海上的小岛，并不是以技术先锋而知名，但这个月它将成为广受赞扬的第三代移动电话系统的测试基地。隶属于英国电信公司的英国电话公司已匆匆搭建了一个网络，并准备将该手机的样机发放给大约 200 名志愿者。但是负责监控发射塔之间通话传递的软件出了问题，英国电信公司将实验推迟到了夏末。几周之前，日本的 NTT DoCoMo 也宣布推迟类似的实验。 这算什么大事?每天不都有上千的移动电话在不同的发射覆盖范围出现类似的小毛病吗?确实是这样。但是第三代的技术，或者所谓的3G，是全新的技术，它需要我们重新思考移动电话运作的各个方面，包括手机，发射天线和

26、运行的软件等。正是由于这个原因，3G 是一个巨大的工程和建设项目，需要花费几年的时间和成百上千亿的资金来完成。在争夺谁最先胜出的混战中，大家似乎都已经忘记了所需的这些巨大付出。 信号转换问题就是个很好的例子。当使用传统的移动电话时，通话是作为连续的数字信号被发送到最近的接收塔的。把信号从一个地区向另一个地区传送的技术在许多年前就已经解决了。但是 3G 电话不同，它把这些信号压缩成一个个的数据包，通过空中电波逐个发送。它给人的印象好像互联网的联结一样，永远在线。这当然是个好消息。但是从一个地区到另一个地区之间持续地跟踪这些数据包却是个异常困难的课题，或者更确切地说，是个全新的课题。为英国电话公司

27、在男人岛的实验提供设备的日本 NEC 公司目前仍没有找到解决问题的办法。 手机制造商也有许多问题要解决。3G 技术可以提供众多的功能，目前还没有一家公司能够生产出一个非凡的产品把所有功能都包括进去。这样的手机不但要适应 3G 的网络，还应能适应已经在欧洲大陆使用的相对简单，有效而便宜的 GPRS 技术以及现有的移动电话标准系统GSM 系统。供公司高级主管使用的手机还要能适应全球的其他数十个标准系统。满足这样的要求需要功能强大的，按要求定制的计算机芯片，这很难在短期内完成。 能够提供这些功能的设备注定会消耗大量能量。现在的 3G 样机能量消耗过大，致使机身过热，使用者感到不舒服。传统手机可使用几

28、天的电池，在 3G 手机上用几分钟就没电了。工程师们正在寻找替代办法。目前没有能够长期使用的电池是个主要的障碍。 所有这些问题都不是不能解决的，但都不可能很快解决。荷兰 Forrester 研究公司的分析家预言，到 2005 年，超过一半的欧洲手机用户都可以同互联网相接。即使如此，也只有不到 15%的用户使用 3G 手机，这能衡量出此项技术的复杂和不成熟。 采分点解析 1test bed 测试基地。 分析 选词用词采分点。 test bed，试验台。这里根据上下文翻译成“实验基地”比较合适。 2prototype mobile handsets 样机。 分析 选词用词采分点。prototype

29、 指“原型”。文中说此种手机为原型手机，即为最初的产品，未大量上市的样品。因此翻译成“样机”比较合适。 3But problems arose in the software that keeps track of each call as it moves from one towers range to anothers. 但是负责监控发射塔之间通话传递的软件出了问题。 分析 理解结构采分点。 这是定语从句的翻译。本句主语 software 的定语为 that 之后的半句，可直接翻译成限定性定语从句，因为句子较短。 4mad scramble to be first out 争夺最先胜出的

30、混战 分析 选词用词采分点。 scramble，意为“抢夺，混乱”，公司之间所进行的这种“抢夺”在这里应该是指一种为占领市场所进行的“商战”。out 本意为“外面的，出局的”。但是在此句中却不是表示出局，而是从混乱的商战中首先“抽身而出”的意思，即谁先在争夺中胜出。 5the handover problem 信号转换问题。 分析 选词用词采分点。 Handover 指“移交，转交”。根据上下文，此处的“转交移交”同与电话、信号有关的关键词一起，应该还是指：电话信号的交换。因此应译为“交换”。 6handing these calls off 把信号从一地区向另一个地区传送。 分析 选词用词采

31、分点。 hand. off 意为“把送出去”。 7bundle up the data into little packets 信号压缩成一个个的数据包。 分析 选词用词采分点。 bundle up 指“把捆扎，打包”。翻译成“压缩”。packet 指“包裹”，因为这里是数据的传送，因此翻译成“数据包”更为贴切。 8This creates the impression of an Internet connections being “always on,” which is good news. 它给人的印象好像互联网的联结一样，永远在线。这当然是个好消息。 分析 理解结构采分点。 在翻译

32、这个定语从句的时候最好将其分开来译成两句。非限定性定语从句 which is good news. 译成“这当然是个好消息。” 9NEC，the Japanese phone company that supplies BT with equipment for its Isle of Man trail，hasnt had time to work it out. 为英国电话公司在男人岛的实验提供设备的日本 NEC 公司目前仍没有找到解决问题的办法。 分析 理解结构采分点。 定语从句作为长句的主语，在翻译的时候要按照汉语的表达方式，将定语部分放到从句主语之前，即，“为提供设备的 NEC 公司

33、”。 10The 3G technologies have so many features；only a wonder gizmo could handle all of them，which is why none exists. 3G 技术可以提供众多的功能，目前还没有一家公司能够生产出一个非凡的产品把所有功能都包括进去。 分析 理解结构采分点。 句子 only a wonder gizmo could handle all of them，which is why none exists. 意思为，“仅仅一个奇妙的小发明就能够进行所有的操作，然而这项发明却还未问世”。结合文章上下文应该

34、是说，没有一个公司能够发明出一种手机能够拥有所有的操作功能。 11Prototype 3G phones drain so much juice that theyve been known to get uncomfortably hot. 现在的 3G 样机能量消耗过大，致使机身过热，使用者感到不舒服。 分析 理解结构采分点。 drain so much juice 指“排出能源”juice 指“能源”，所以可以译成“能量消耗过大”。theyve been known 的动词可以省译。they. to get hot 指的是手机(机身)太热。副词 uncomfortably 放到原句中翻译

35、会使译文不通顺，可以把它拿出来单独翻译成一个句子。因为这种“不舒服”也只有使用手机的人才能感觉到，所以增加主语“使用者”，译成“使用者感到不舒服”。二、BSection Chine(总题数：1，分数：40.00)2.就业是民生之本，是人们赖以生存和发展的基本经济资源。由于人口众多，劳动力资源丰富和经济结构调整等原因，中国目前面临巨大的就业压力。中国政府始终将促进就业作为国民经济和社会发展的战略任务，将控制失业率列入国民经济宏观调控的主要目标，合理调整就业结构，建立市场导向的就业机制，大力促进就业总量的增加，总体上保持了就业形式的基本稳定。 在增加基本建设投资，积极扩大内需，保持国民经济快速发展

36、的同时，中国政府通过产业政策的调整，重视发展具有比较优势和市场潜力的劳动密集型企业，积极发展多种所有制经济，鼓励灵活多样的就业形式，增加就业岗位，拓宽就业渠道。 为解决农村劳动力的就业问题，中国政府积极调整农业和农村经济结构，鼓励发展效益农业和劳动密集型农业，积极引导农村富余劳动力的合理流动。 为提高劳动者的文化素质和职业技能，中国政府通过多种途径，努力发展各类教育事业，努力建立一个全方位多层次的职业技术教育和培训体系。（分数：40.00）_正确答案：()解析：Employment is the basis of peoples livelihood and the basic economi

37、c resource that people rely on for subsistence and development. At present, China faces a great employment pressure, due to its huge population, abundant labor resources and economic restructuring. The Chinese Government has always regarded increasing employment opportunities as a major strategic ta

38、sk in economic and social development, and controlling the rate of unemployment as a main target in macro-economic regulation and control. It has rationally readjusted the employment structure, established a market-oriented employment mechanism, made great efforts to increase overall employment and

39、maintained basic stability in the general employment situation. While increasing capital construction investment, vigorously expanding domestic demand and maintaining the rapid development of the national economy, the government, through readjustment of its industrial policies, stresses the developm

40、ent of labor-intensive enterprises with comparative advantages and market potential. It also increases employment and expands employment channels by vigorously developing the economy with diverse forms of ownership and by encouraging various forms of employment. To solve the problem related to the e

41、mployment of rural laborers, the Chinese Government has been vigorously readjusting agricultural and rural economic structures, encouraging the development of profitable and labor-intensive agriculture, and actively guiding the rational flow of surplus rural laborers. To raise the cultural level and

42、 professional skills of the labor force, the Chinese Government has striven to promote all forms of education through various channels and establish an all-round, multi-level vocational and technical education and training system. 采分点解析 1就业是民生之本，是人们赖以生存和发展的基本经济资源。Employment is the basis of peoples l

43、ivelihood and the basic economic resource that people rely on for subsistence and development. 分析 选词用词采分点。 “民生之本”可译为 the basis of peoples livelihood，也可译为 the basis of peoples living。 2国政府始终将促进就业作为国民经济和社会发展的战略任务，将控制失业率列入国民经济宏观调控的主要目标，合理调整就业结构，建立市场导向的就业机制，大力促进就业总量的增加，总体上保持了就业形式的基本稳定。The Chinese Govern

It has rationally readjusted the employment structure，established a market-ori

45、ented employment mechanism，made great efforts to increase overall employment and maintained basic stability in the general employment situation. 分析 理解结构采分点。 原文句子结构复杂，需要断句来翻译，前半句的主干是“中国政府将促进就业作为战略任务，将控制失业率列入主要目标”。在第二个逗号处将句子断开，即“合理调整就业结构，建立市场导向的基本稳定”翻译成另外一句。 3劳动密集型企业 labor-intensive enterprises 分析 基本素

46、质采分点。 劳动密集型是常见的时事词汇。 4在增加基本建设投资，积极扩大内需，保持国民经济快速发展的同时，中国政府通过产业政策的调整，重视发展具有比较优势和市场潜力的劳动密集型企业，积极发展多种所有制经济，鼓励灵活多样的就业形式，增加就业岗位，拓宽就业渠道。While increasing capital construction investment，vigorously expanding domestic demand and maintaining the high-speed development of the national economy，the government, th

It also increases employment and expands employment channels by vigorously developing the economy with diverse forms of ownership and by encouragin

48、g various forms of employment. 分析 理解结构采分点。 原句句子结构复杂，同样需要将其断开来翻译。译文将“在增加的同时”翻成现在分词作伴随状语。“积极发展多种所有制经济，鼓励灵活多样的就业形式，增加就业岗位，拓宽就业渠道”翻译成一个独立的句子。“增加就业岗位，拓宽就业渠道”要翻译成并列的动宾结构“It also increases employment and expands employment channels”。原句中的另外两个动宾词组“积极发展多种所有制经济，鼓励灵活多样的就业形式”表示一种手段，所以译成介词短语做状语“by vigorously developing the economy with diverse forms of ownership and by encouraging various forms of employment”。 5努力建立一个全方位多层次的职业技术教育和培训体系
