都江堰

都江堰(Dujiangyan)坐落在成都平原西部的岷江上,距成都市約50公里,始建于與公元前三世紀(jì)。它的獨特之處在于無需用堤壩調(diào)控水流。2000多年來,都江堰一直有效地發(fā)揮著防洪與灌溉作用,使成都平原成為旱澇保收的沃土和中國最重要的糧食產(chǎn)地之一,都江堰工程體現(xiàn)了我國人民與自然和諧共存的智慧,是全世界年代最久、仍在使用、無壩控水的水利工程。

Dujiangyan, located on the Minjiang River in the west of Chengdu Plain, about 50km away from Chengdu City, was built in the third century BC. Its uniqueness is that it does not need dikes to regulate water flow. For more than 2000 years, it has been playing an effective role in flood control and irrigation, making Chengdu Plain a fertile land free from drought and flood and one of the most important grain producing areas in China. As the oldest water conservancy project in the world which is still in use and has no dike to control water, the Dujiangyan engineering reflects the wisdom of harmonious coexistence between Chinese people and nature.

大運河

2021年12月英語四級考試已經(jīng)結(jié)束,滬江第一時間為大家準(zhǔn)備了四級翻譯真題答案,快來對答案吧!

大運河( Grand Canal) 是世界上最長的人工河,北起北京,南至杭州。它是中國歷史上最宏偉的工程之一。大運河始建于公元前4世紀(jì),公元13世紀(jì)末建成。修建之初是為了運輸糧食,后來也用于運輸其他商品。大運河沿線區(qū)域逐漸發(fā)展成為中國的工商業(yè)中心。長久以來,大運河對中國的經(jīng)濟發(fā)展發(fā)揮了重要作用,有力地促進了南北地區(qū)之間的人員往來和文化交流。

The Grand Canal, extending from Beijing in the North to Hangzhou in the South, is the longest man-made river. Its construction was one of the most magnificent projects throughout the Chinese history. The construction of the canal started in the 4th century BC and was completed in the 13th century, with an original aim of facilitating grain transportation. Later, it was also for transporting other commodities. Over time, the areas along the course of the canal have developed into the industrial and commercial centres of China. For a long time, the canal has served a pivotal role in the booming of Chinese economy, enhancing the personnel exchange and cultural communication between northern and southern parts of the country.

坎兒井

坎兒井( Karez)是新疆干旱地區(qū)的一種水利系統(tǒng),由地下渠道將水井連接而成。該系統(tǒng)將春夏季節(jié)滲入( seep into)地下的大量雨水及積雪融水收集起來,通過山體的自然坡度引到地面,用于灌溉農(nóng)田和滿足人們的日常用水需求。坎兒井減少了水在地面的蒸發(fā)( evaporation),對地表破壞很小,因而有效地保護了自然資源與生態(tài)環(huán)境??矁壕w現(xiàn)了我國人民與自然和諧共存的智慧,是對人類文明的一大貢獻。

Karez is a water conservancy system in the arid area of Xinjiang. It is formed by underground channels connecting wells. The system collects a large amount of rainwater and snow melt water that seep into the ground in spring and summer, and draws it to the ground through the natural slope of the mountain to irrigate farmland and meet people's daily water needs. Karez reduces the evaporation of water on the ground and does little damage to the surface, thus effectively protecting the natural resources and the ecological environment. Kanerjing embodies the wisdom of the harmonious coexistence of our people and nature, and is a great contribution to human civilization.

News report 1

United Airlines has apologized for mistakenly shipping an American family’s pet dog in the wrong direction to Japan. The dog owner’s beloved 10-year-old dog named Buddy, took an unexpected 16-hour flight to Tokyo following a mix-up by the airline. The dog owner’s family are currently in the process of moving. They were meant to be reunited with the pet in their new home city in Texas. But, when they arrived at the United Airlines cargo facility in the southern US state, they found a stranger’s dog waiting in Buddy’s place. Both of the dogs had been sent to the wrong destinations on connecting flights from Denver, with Buddy mistakenly being sent to Japan instead. Buddy was given a physical check-up when he arrived at Tokyo’s International Airport. The dog was then sent back to the US on a private chartered jet. “I'm so glad he's alive and coming home soon,” said the relieved dog owner. “An error occurred during the connections in Denver. We have notified our customers that their pets arrived safely. We will arrange to return the pens to them as soon as possible,” a spokesperson of United Airlines said.

長對話

Conversation one.

W: I can't believe that duck hunting is still legal in so many parts of the world [8]. The scientific evidence from countries like Australia, Canada, and the USA clearly indicates a decline in the birds' numbers.

M: But can anyone be sure if the decline is really caused by the hunting or by climate change [9]?

W: It's caused by both in fact [9]. We see more droughts in countries like Australia. Ducks are birds that feed and breed in areas where there is a lot of water, but their habitats have been shrinking in recent decades because of the droughts.

M: And I guess with fewer places to inhabit, they concentrate in greater numbers in few areas, which surely makes them easier targets for the hunters.

W: It does. My grandfather was a duck hunter. He told me hunting ducks and geese began in the 19th century. They were easily found and plentifully available food source in farming areas, especially for poor immigrants.

M: What do they use for hunting during that period?

W: They use new types of guns, and birds could easily be shot down in flight, and in such great numbers that commercial hunting of ducks and geese became an industry. Yet, there's no commercial farming of these birds nowadays. Their meat is hardly eaten in western countries [10].

M: No, duck hunting seemingly exists as the continuation of a tradition.

W: Well, ducks have never been popular with farmers like my grandfather anyway because they sometimes destroy crops. In fact, farmers used to poison them in large numbers [11].

M: That somehow doesn't surprise me. Nobody places much value on the lives of these poor birds or on their meat.

8.What does the woman find unbelievable?

D) Duck hunting remains legal in many parts of the world.

9. What does the woman say has caused the shrinking of ducks' habitats in Australia?

A) Droughts.

10. Why is there no commercial farming of ducks and geese in western countries?

B) Their neat is not that popular.

11. What does the woman say about farmers in her grandfather's time?

D) They poisoned wild ducks in large numbers.

Conversation two

M: Okay, Miss Bright. I finished calculating. I estimate you have between 210 and 240 square meters of walls and ceiling.

W: So how much would the pain job cost?

M: That would depend on the quality of paint you choose. We carry two brands -one cost 60 cents every square meter, and the other 90 cents. The second is guaranteed to look great for about 10 years, whereas the cheaper one will start to dull after around 6 or 7 years.

W: In that case, we would prefer the more expensive option.

M: All right, then. So including labor costs, taxes, and everything, this job would come to $3,000.

W: Emm, to be perfectly honest, that's more than I expected.

M: Please bear in mind that the price includes moving all the furniture, and the whole task would take 2 days.

W: Really? Why?

M: Well, we can't paint the walls without clearing all the furniture first. So every time we paint a room, we first have to move the furniture to another room. So that takes more time. Plus, it requires two people, which works out more expensive.

W: I see. But does that mean I could not live here in my own house during those 2 days [13]?

M: That is correct.

W: Oh well, that changes everything I'm afraid. I would have to stay with a friend or check into a hotel [14]. I hadn't considered any of that. I'm starting to realize that painting my house [12] is far more troublesome than I had anticipated [15].

M: This is usually the case. Most of our clients go through the same realization.

W: I see.

M: You have my number. Please feel free to call me for any further questions.

W: Thank you.

12. What is the woman planning to do?

A) Have her house repainted.

13. What is the woman's chief concern?

B) How much the work will cost.

14. What does the woman have to do while the paint job is being done?

C) Stay somewhere else.

15, What has the woman come to realize at the end of the conversation?

B ) Painting a house involves more trouble than she thought.

So how can you help your child do their best? Q17: Creating an ideal working environment will make it easier for them to get down to their assignments quickly. Make sure it's free of distractions. And for primary school children at least somewhere near you. So you can answer questions and offer encouragement. You probably have to help younger children plan their session. But it's important that by the end of primary school, it's second nature get them to tell you everything they have to do, then encourage them to establish an order in which they do work. Q18: When there are several different assignments, make sure they begin with one they enjoy. So it seems easy to get started. It's best to take on the most difficult task second. Once they're settled, but before they get tired, if older children have more than an hour of homework, encourage them to schedule a short break to stretch. If you encourage them to tell you what they've learned, they'll absorb the information more deeply and remember it more readily.

Question 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.

Question 16. What is the main aim of homework for primary school kids?

A) To cultivate good habits.

Question 17. What does the passage suggest parents do to help their children?

C) Start with something they enjoy.

Passage 2

Workers at Mexican Oil Company will receive a health incentive of almost $300 a year if they meet certain body weight standards. To qualify for the bonus, Q19: they must maintain a healthy weight. For those who are overweight or obese, they can receive the bonus if they reduce their weight by 10 % during the year. Some applaud the policy as fair, because it rewards both individuals who maintain a healthy weight and those who are working towards achieving it.

Q20: But critics say the policy contradicts recommendations by many health experts who warned that a person's weight is influenced by genetic and environmental factors. That means weight can be hard for individuals to control, which makes the bonus unfair. Some experts say the policy is inconsistent with the science of what we know about body weight regulation. These experts argue that focusing on wage is the wrong approach. Q21: A more productive method of encouraging health among employees is to promote healthy behaviors. For example, companies can give workers gym memberships, or encourage participation in lectures on healthy eating and living. They can also reduce sweets and provide healthier snacks in the office and healthier meals at the company canteen. Or they can give employees more time during their lunch break to exercise. These are much better and much more productive ways for companies to move forward on their employees’ well being.

Questions 19 to 21 are based on the passage you have just heard.

Question 19. Who will qualify for the bonus in Mexican Oil Company?

A) Workers who meet its body weight standards.

Question 20. What do critics think of Mexican Oil Company's bonus policy?

D) Unfair.

Question 21. What do experts propose companies do about workers’ well being?

C) Encourage healthy behaviors.

Passage 3

Campaigners have warned that the Q22: British government is not doing enough to prevent left-handed pupils from falling behind their peers. They claim that thousands of children are still being penalized for being left-handed. This is due to a lack of action from ministers who failed to take any meaningful action for years. It is feared that a failure to address early year challenges such as poor handwriting is too much more serious problems down the line with these pupils facing reduced career prospects. Q23: Studies in recent years show that left-handed children are more likely to suffer with learning difficulties, and their scores are lower on IQ tests. Campaigners feel it's strange that children and British schools are penalized because they happen to be left-handed. They don't understand why successive governments have failed to act on this. Q24: They want the Department of Education to record which children are left-handed and what their educational attainments are since they make up some 10 % of the population. In early year education, left-handed children are struggling and making a mess of their handwriting. Educators don't know how to deal with this. In many cases, there's no active help and a lack of teacher training. Q25: Campaigners point out that a high percentage of the prison population is left-handed. They say that these prison numbers are unusually high and ask why it is the case.

Questions 22 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.

Question 22. Why are some people criticizing the British government?

A) It has not done enough to help left-handed children.

Question 23. What do studies in recent years show about left-handed children?

D) They tend to have more difficulties in learning.

Question 24. What do the campaigners demand the Department of Education do?

D) Keep track of left-handed children' s school performance.

Question 25. What do the campaigners want to know about left-handed prisoners?

B) Why their numbers are so high.
