1、笔译三级实务模拟试卷 32及答案与解析 一、 PART 1 English-Chinese Translation (60 points) Translate the following passage into Chinese. The time for this part is 120 minutes. 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 a
2、cclaimed third-generation mobile phones. A subsidiary of British Telecom (BT), the British phone company, cobbled together a network and prepared to hand out prototype mobile handsets to about 200 volunteers. But problems arose in the software that keeps track of each call as it moves from one tower
3、s range to anothers. BT postponed the trial until late summer, after a similar delay announced a few weeks earlier by NTT DoCoMo in Japan. Whats the big deal? Arent thousands of mobile calls “handed off“ every day from one “cell“ to another without a glitch? They are indeed. But third-generation tec
4、hnology, or 3G, is so radically new that it requires a rethinking of just about every aspect of how mobile phones work, from the handset to the transmission masts to the software that runs them. For this reason, 3G are a massive engineering and construction project that will take years to complete a
5、nd cost hundreds of billions of dollars. The magnitude of this effort has somehow been forgotten in the mad scramble to be first out. The handover problem is a case in point. When you talk on a conventional mobile phone, your call is beamed as a continuous stream of digital data to the nearest recei

This creates the impression of an Internet connections being “ always on,“ whi
7、ch is good news. But keeping rack of these data bundles from one region to the next is a daunting engineering problem and, more to the point, a brand-new one. NEC, the Japanese phone company that supplies BT with equipment for its Isle of Man trail, hasnt had time to work it out. Handset makers also
8、 have work to do. The 3G technologies have so many features; only a wonder gizmo could handle all of them, which is why none exists.

Phones for corporate executives are also supposed to adapt to dozens of other standards around the world. Doing all this requires powerful, custom-built computer chips, whic
10、h are tough to make quickly. A device that does so many things is bound to guzzle a lot of power. Prototype 3G phones drain so much juice that theyve been known to get uncomfortably hot. Batteries that can keep a conventional phone running for days would fizzle in a 3G handset in a matter of minutes
11、. Engineers are searching for alternative, but at the moment the lack of a long-lasting battery is a major hurdle. None of these problems is insurmountable, but neither will they be resolved quickly. Analysts at Forrester Research in the Netherlands predict that even in 2005, when more than half of
