1、二级笔译CATTI近十年真题及参考答案2005年11月英语二级笔译实务试题Section 1: English-Chinese Translation(英译汉)Part A Compulsory Translation(必译题)Hans Christian Andersen was Denmarks most famous native son. Yet even after his fairy tales won him fame and fortune, he feared he would be forgotten. He need not have worried. This week
2、end, Denmark began eight months of celebrations to coincide with the bicentenary of his birth, and Denmark is eager that the world take note as it sets out to define the pigeon-holed writer in its own way.The festivities began in Copenhagen on Saturday, Andersens actual birthday, with a lively show
3、of music, dance, lights and comedy inspired by his fairy tales before a crowd of 40,000 people - including Queen Margrethe II and her family - at the Parken National Stadium. The opening, called Once Upon a Time, will be followed by a slew of concerts, musicals, ballets, exhibitions, parades and edu
4、cation programs costing over US$40 million.So more than in recent memory, Danes - and, they hope, foreigners - will be reliving the humor, pain and lessons to be found in evergreen stories like The Little Mermaid, The Emperors New Clothes, The Ugly Duckling, The Little Match-Seller, The Steadfast Ti
5、n Soldier, The Shadow, The Princess and the Pea and others of Andersens 150 or so fairy tales.In organizing this extravaganza, of course, Denmark is also celebrating itself. After all, Andersen is still this countrys most famous native son. Trumpeting his name and achievements not only draws attenti
6、on to Denmarks contribution to world culture, but could also woo more foreign tourists to visit his birthplace in the town of Odense and to be photographed beside the famous bronze statue of the Little Mermaid in Copenhagens harbor.And Denmark has even more in mind. Local guardians of the Andersen l
7、egacy evidently feel his stories have lost ground in recent years to the likes of J.R.R. Tolkiens Lord of the Rings and J.K. Rowlings Harry Potter. Andersens fairy tales may remain central to the Danish identity, serving as homespun guides to the vagaries of human behavior, but what about the rest o
8、f the world?What we really need is a rebirth of Andersen, noted Lars Seeberg, secretary general of the Hans Christian Andersen 2005 Foundation. Two centuries after his birth, he still fails to be universally acknowledged as the world-class author he no doubt was.Part B Optional Translation(二选一题)Topi
9、c 1(选题一)Independent Information and Analysis from the USAThe Gap Between Rich and Poor Widened in U.S. Capital Washington D.C. ranks first among the 40 cities with the widest gap between the poor and the rich, according to a recent report released by the D.C. Fiscal Policy Institute on July 22nd. Th
10、e top 20 percent of households in D.C. have an average yearly income of $186,830, 31 times that of the bottom 20 percent, which earns only $6,126 per year. The income gap is also big in Atlanta and Miami, but the difference is not as pronounced.The report also indicates that the widening gap occurre
11、d mainly during the 1990s. Over the last decade, the average income of the top 20 percent of households has grown 36 percent, while the average income of the bottom 20 percent has only risen 3 percent.I believe the concentration of the middle- to high-income families in the D.C. area will continue,
12、therefore, the income gap between rich and poor will be hard to bridge, David Garrison told the Washington Observer. Garrison is a senior researcher with the Brookings Institution, specializing in the study of the social and economic policies in the greater Washington D.C. area.The report attributed
13、 the persistent income gap in Washington to the areas special job opportunities, which attract high-income households. Especially since the federal government is based in Washington D.C., Government agencies and other government related businesses such as lobbying firms and government contractors co
14、nstantly offer high-paying jobs, which contribute to the trend of increasing high-income households in the D.C. area. For example, a single young professional working in a law firm in D.C. can earn as much as $100,000 in his or her first year out of law school.In addition, high-quality housing avail
15、able in Washington D.C. is one of the main reasons why high-income families choose to live here, while middle and low-income families, if they can afford it, choose to move out of Washington D.C. to the Virginia and Maryland suburbs so that their kids can go to better schools, stated Garrison.As ric
16、h families continue to move into D.C. and middle and low-income families are moving out, the poorest families are left with nowhere to move, or cannot afford to move. This creates the situation we face now: a huge income gap between the rich and poor.The Washington D.C. area to which Garrison refers
17、 is the District of Columbia city itself, not including the greater Washington metro area. The greater Washington metro area has a large population of about 5 million, but the low-income households are often concentrated in D.C. proper, Garrison explained.Tony Blalock, the spokesperson for Mayor Ant
18、hony Williams, said resignedly, No matter what we seem to do to bring investment into the District, a certain population is not able to access the unique employment opportunities there. The gap between the rich and poor is the product of complex forces, and wont be fixed overnight.Garrison believes
19、that the D.C. government should attract high-income families. By doing so, the Districts tax base can grow, which in turn can help improve D.C.s infrastructure. But in the meantime, the District government should also take into consideration the rights of the poor, set up good schools for them, and
20、provide sound social welfare. All these measures can alleviate the dire situation caused by income disparity. Garrison, however, is not optimistic about the possibility of closing the gap between the rich and poor. He is particularly doubtful that current economic progress will be able to help out t
21、he poor. Bushs tax-cut plan did bring about this wave of economic recovery, and the working professionals and rich did benefit from it. It is unfair to say that the plan did not help the poor at all it just didnt benefit them as much as it did the rich, Garrison said. The working class in America, t
22、hose who do the simplest work, get paid the least, and dutifully pay their taxes, has not benefited from Bushs tax-cut plan much.Garrison concludes, A lot of cities in America did not enjoy the positive impact of the economic recovery. Washington D.C., on the other hand, has always been sheltered by
23、 the federal government. The wide gap between rich and poor in the District, therefore, deserves more in-depth study and exploration.Topic 2(选题二)Sometimes you can know too much. The aim of screening healthy people for cancer is to discover tumours when they are small and treatable. It sounds laudabl
24、e and often it is. But it sometimes leads to unnecessary treatment. The body has a battery of mechanisms for stopping small tumours from becoming large ones. Treating those that would have been suppressed anyway does no good and can often be harmful.Take lung cancer. A report in this weeks Journal o
