1、笔译三级实务模拟试卷 9（无答案）一、PART 1 English-Chinese Translation (60 points)Translate the following passage into Chinese. The time for this part is 120 minutes.1 There is an ever-widening gap between black male college enrollees and their female and white counterparts, says the American Council on Education (A

2、CE).Twenty years ago, according to ACEs “Annual Status Report on Minorities in Higher Education,“ 30 percent of African American male high school graduates (ages 18 to 24) were enrolled in college, compared with 28 percent of same-age black females and 41 percent of white males.Now, some 37 percent

3、of black men are enrolled, compared with 42 percent of African American women and 44.5 percent of white males. So while there are more black males enrolling in college today than 20 years ago, other groups have outstripped them in enrolling and, even more importantly, in retention rates.The graduati

4、on rate of black men is lower than that of any group. Only 35 percent of black males enrollees graduated within six years from colleges in 1996, compared with 59 percent of white males, 46 percent of Hispanic men, 41 percent of American Indian males and 45 percent of the black women who entered the

Fewer than one in five students of color have graduated from high school, have a set of college-prep courses on their high school transcripts and “demonstrate basic literacy“ - the ne

6、cessities for being “college ready.“Another glaring problem is that black males are disproportionately labeled as discipline and behavioral problems and fast tracked out of high schools through expulsions and suspensions.As if thats not enough, says ACEs William Harvey, theres a virtual drying up of

7、 federal aid-to-education grant money coupled with jacked-up tuitions, which make it necessary for low-income students to assume an average 20,000 debt to finish a four-year curriculum.“For those in the lower economic category, the availability of financial aid determines who gets to go to college a

9、 and attempt to get a job,“ adds Harvey. “But many take on the debt, become part-time students, work 20-plus hours a week and become five-year students at a four-year college.“The inequity of that educational apparatus is especially clear when you look at the black males who persevere - those who go

10、 on to finish high school, earn a bachelors degree and even finish grad school.A recently released Census report shows that, whether they have a high school diploma or a masters degree, black men will earn roughly 25 percent less than Whites.二、PART 2 Chinese-English Translation (40 points)Translate

11、the following passage into English. The time for this part is 60 minutes.2 向一位著名的女作家祝贺她八十岁寿辰，这样的机会是不多的，所以我去年十月五日到冰心家里去的时候，心情非常激动。我解释说希望她给我讲一下她是怎样成为诗人的。“ 我已有多年没有写诗了， ”她微笑说， “可是我还是爱读好诗。”冰心很幸运地有鼓励她学习和写作的父母。一九一九年她在北京一所女子学院念书时，一个事件改变了她生命的整个道路。那就是五四运动，一个由北京学生发动的爱国民主运动。群众游行示威的场面给她以深刻的印象。她投身于斗争中，并披学生会任命负责宣传工作。她写了诗歌，文章和故事，以抨击帝国主义和各种形式的封建主义。她在 1923 年到美国去学文学，在旅途中和在美国居留中写下了她的感受。这些都收在一个集子里出版，就是寄小读者。这本书使她声誉突起。这不仅是因为她是一位女作家，而是因为书中的高尚的情操。有不少较年轻的作家说，是冰心的作品使他们走上了其后所走的道路。
