Paper Two 试卷二
(60 minutes)
Part I: Translation (30 minutes, 20 points, 10 for each section)
Section A
Directions: Translate the following passage into Chinese. Write your translation on the ANSWER SHEET.
One of the most pressing challenges that the United States—and indeed, the whole world will face in the next few decades is how to alleviate the growing stress that human activities are placing on the environment. As a matter of fact, the consequences are just too great to ignore. Wildlife habitats are being degraded or disappearing altogether as new developments take up more land. Plant and animal species are becoming extinct at a greater rate now than at any time in Earth’s history. As many as 30 percent of the world’s fish stocks are overexploited. And it is obvious that the list goes on.
Section B
Directions: Translate the following passage into English. Write your translation on the ANSWER SHEET.
如果你想在谈话中用幽默来使人发笑的话,你就必须知道如何确定你与其他人有相同的经历和问题。你的幽默一定要和听众有关,应该有助于表明你是他们中间的一员,或者你了解他们的处境,赞同他们的观点。针对不同的谈话对象,你要谈的问题就应该有所不同。
Part II: Writing (30 minutes, 15 points)
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition of no less than 150 words on “Do We Need Hearing?” as its title. Your composition should be based on the following message given in Chinese. Give at least two reasons to support your choice. Please remember to write your composition clearly on the COMPOSITION SHEET.
前一段时间,全国各地召开了各种听证会,召集社会各阶层人士商讨水费、电费、车票以及旅游景点门票的涨价问题。但是,听证会后,各种费用的涨价幅度却并没有按照与会人士的意见而定,而是根据召开听证会的职能部门的意见而定的。请你就此发表你的观点,提出解决办法。
