26、write your summary.（分数：20.00）_翻译二级口译综合能力-4 答案解析(总分：100.00，做题时间：90 分钟)一、BPart /B(总题数：2，分数：20.00)（分数：10.00）(1).According to the speaker, the first modern Olympic Games were held as an international competition.（分数：2.00）A.正确B.错误 解析：听力原文 The modern Olympic Games began in Athens in 1896 as a result of th

27、e initiative of Baron Pierre de Coubertin, a French educator whose desire was to promote international understanding through athletics. Nine nations participated in the first Games; over 100 nations currently compete. 分析 特定信息的找寻和判断。 现代奥运会始于 1896 年，由法国教育家 Baron Pierre de Coubertin 倡导进行，其宗旨是 to promot

28、e international understanding through athletics，即通过运动员促进各国间的理解交流。由此可见，题干中认为举行奥运会的目的是 as an international competition“作为国际竞争”的说法与原文不符，因此是错误的。解题关键 在围绕中心话题的纷繁信息中把握重要人物的主要观点和主张。根据信号词 desire 找到重要人物 Baron Pierre de Coubertin 的主张是解题的关键。(2).The Clinton administration thought that the ban of US aid to Pakist

29、an successfully stopped the spread of nuclear weapons in South Asia.（分数：2.00）A.正确B.错误 解析：听力原文 The Clinton administration has signaled its opposition to a 1985 law that bans most US aid to Pakistan because of its nuclear program. A US State Department spokesman said the law does not advance the US go

30、al of stopping the spread of nuclear weapons in South Asia. 分析 语义理解判断。 题干中提出了克林顿政府关于禁止向巴基斯坦提供援助的命令，原文认为该禁令 does not advance the US goal of stopping the spread of nuclear weapons in South Asia，即没能推进美国制止南亚核武器传播的目标，由 does not advance 可判断题干中 successfully stopped 的说法与原文不符，因此题干的说法是错误的。 解题关键 能够正确找到指示代词所指对象

31、是解题关键。原文该发言人所提的没能推进美国制止南亚核武器传播的目标的法律，就是指禁止向巴基斯坦提供援助的命令。(3).Inflation occurs when government sectors intervene the capitalist economic system.（分数：2.00）A.正确B.错误 解析：听力原文 Inflation stems from the instability of capitalist economic systems. That this instability no longer creates cumulative depressions i

32、s due to the intervention of the government sector. Increased institutional rigidity also limits downward price adjustment. 分析 因果关系的找寻和判断。 题干认为政府部门干涉资本主义经济制度时，通货膨胀便会发生。而原文认为 Inflation stems from the instability of capitalist economic systems，即通货膨胀源于资本主义经济制度的不稳定性。由此可见，题干的说法与原文不符，是错误的。 解题关键 1)掌握表示因果关系

33、的信号词，可以帮助听者作出正确的判断。题干中 occur 表明该题重点在于找寻和判断 inflation的原因，由此可使听者将重点放在找寻原文关于 inflation 的原因上；2)同义词替换。本题需掌握 stem from 与题干中的 occur 同义，均是表示因果关系的信号词。(4).The speaker says that the periods of seismic activity are increasingly complex and may cause the earth to wobble.（分数：2.00）A.正确B.错误 解析：听力原文 Our discussion o

34、f earthquakes would be incomplete if we didnt raise the possibility of their being caused by external forces. As you know there are increases and decreases in episodes of seismic activity, but there is no regular or predictable pattern. 分析 特定信息的找寻和理解。 本题要求理解 seismic activity(地震活动)。根据相关原文可知 As you kn

35、ow there are increases and decreases in episodes of seismic activity，but there is no regular or predictable pattern，即地震活动周期有起有伏，没有规律可言，也无法预测其态势。而题干认为地震活动周期越来越复杂，可能会引起地球的颤动，显然与原文不符，因此是错误的。 解题关键 识别听力材料中的关键信息，并对其上下文充分理解，是解答本题的关键。如本题中的关键信息是seismic activity，如果对有关该词部分的内容充分理解，便能作出正确的判断。(5).According to the

36、 speaker, a seat belt and an upright seat provide less protection for car passengers.（分数：2.00）A.正确B.错误 解析：听力原文 It is already known that incorrect usage of combination lap and shoulder seat belts can lead to injuries of the spine, neck and pelvis. Now, evidence from three case reports suggests that i

37、ndividuals who ride in a reclined position while wearing these safety belts may place themselves at additional risk of injury. 分析 语义理解题。 关于安全带、坐姿和驾车安全的关系，根据原文 evidence from three case reports suggests that individuals who ride in a reclined potation whilewearing these safety belts may place themselv

38、es at additional risk of injury 可知，三起事故的报道表明身系安全带，但斜倚在座位里开车的驾驶员受伤的可能性更大。由此可推测，如果系上安全带，再保持笔直坐姿，驾驶的安全性应有所提高。因此题干说系安全带并保持笔直坐姿，会使驶员受伤的可能性更大，与原文不符，是错误的。 解题关键 理解关键单词和短语的含义是解题的关键。本题原文中 recline 意思是“斜倚着的”，与题于中 sit upright 意思相反；at additional risk of injury 意思为“受伤可能性加大”，与题干中 less protection 相呼应。（分数：10.00）(1).A

39、ccording to the speaker, even America is suffering from economic depression, the American economy will soon be recovered if Americans can solve the problem of unemployment and control oil prices.（分数：2.00）A.正确B.错误 解析：听力原文 The economic slump is the biggest problem facing Americans today. Despite all t

40、he talks about deficit spending, oil prices, unemployment, and the impending depression, Americans continue to spend large sums of money on goods which are frivolous and damaging to the country. 分析 语义的理解和判断。 本题要求理解和判断美国的经济状况。根据原文，当今美国面临的最大问题是经济疲软。虽然美国人透支消费，油价，失业和迫在眉睫的大萧条津津乐道，但他们仍然继续花大价钱买那些华而不实的商品，损害

41、了国家的经济发展。显然，题干中说美国 is suffering from economic depression“美国正在遭受经济危机”和 American economy will soon be recovered“美国经济将很快恢复”的说法与原文不符，因此是错误的。 解题关键 1)中心句和支持性细节的关系。材料中第一句是中心句，概括了当今美国面临的最大问题是经济疲软。后面的内容具体说明了这一点。2)根据原文中词汇的色彩，可作出正确推断。如原文中自始至终使用了带有贬义色彩的词，如：slump， deficit，unemployment，depression，frivolous，damagi

42、ng 等，由此可判断，美国的经济不会在短期内 recover“恢复”。(2).Private information from Polish secret agents enabled the British Customs authorities to confiscate the arms shipment which was ordered by the Ulster Volunteer Force.（分数：2.00）A.正确 B.错误解析：听力原文 British Customs authorities have confiscated a huge shipment of weapo

43、ns bound for Protestant gunmen in Northern Ireland. It was said to be the biggest seizure of arms in British history. Authorities, tipped off by Polish agents, found more than 300 assault rifles and two metric tons of explosives on a polish freighter in Northern Britain. The outlawed Ulster Voluntee

44、r Force admitted that it was waiting for the shipment in Belfast. 分析 主要信息的找寻和判断。 原文中主要信息有三点：1)由 British Customs authorities have confiscated a huge shipment of weapons 可知，英国海关没收了“大批武器；2)由 the biggest seizure of arms. tipped off by Polish agents 可知，由于波兰间谍告密，(英国海关)才成功地缴获了如此多的武器；3)由 Ulster Volunteer Fo

45、rce admitted that it was waiting for the shipment可知，该组织承认他们是这批武器的买主。由此可见，题干的内容与原文主干部分内容相符，是正确的。 解题关键 1)从复杂的信息中识别主干部分的主要内容是解题的关键。本题的信息庞杂，因此要根据题干内容抓住原文话语中的主干部分，排除次要信息，如一些起修饰作用的短语和词汇及对这批军火的具体统计数据等；2)掌握同义词替换，原文中 tip off 意为“为通风报信”，与题干中 enabled.to.相呼应。(3).To keep the prosperity of the air industry, the De

46、partment of Defense has invested a lot of money to develop an innovative type of aircraft which does not need a runway.（分数：2.00）A.正确 B.错误解析：听力原文 With major airports facing chronic traffic jams and nobody volunteering to have a new airport built in his backyard, how is the air-travel boom going to su

47、stain itself? One answer may come from the Department of Defense, which had sponsored development of an innovative new type of aircraft that doesnt need a runway; its engine pods point upward for vertical takeoff, then tilt horizontally for forward flight. 分析 词汇理解。 原文首句提问：航空业在面临种种困难的情况下如何保持繁荣兴盛?接着，文

48、章给予回答 One answer may come from the Department of Defense，which had sponsored development of an innovative new type of aircraft that doesnt need a runway.即国防部已出资研制一种新型飞机，该飞机不需跑道显然题干信息与原文相吻合，是正确的。 解题关键 能够确定题干中 prosperity，invest 分别与原文中boom，sponsor 是同义替换。(4).A new flaw was found in Microsoft Internet Explorer. But the flaw will not affect computers which have been updated with Microsofts latest security patch.（分数：2.00）A.正确B.错误 解析：听力原文 An independent researcher warned that an Internet Explorer vulnerability could turn drag-and-drop into drag-and-infect, even on computers updated
