近年来,英译汉的试题难度在加大,主要体现在比较复杂的文章和句子结构比重加大。五个划线句子中,一般会有1—2个简单句,3—4个复合句;其中复合句存在多个从句嵌套的现象,对考生造成一定理解和表达难度,简单句也因修饰成分繁多、含有抽象意义的词,存在省略和指代等而加大难度。因此,这五个句子要么语法结构复杂,要么逻辑关系繁复,并且这一现象历年来有增无减,今年也不会例外。所以建议2012的考生在备考的时候应该把更多的精力真正的放在扎扎实实提高自身英语语言能力、提高对于文章长难句和段落逻辑结构的把握上。在打下坚实的语言能力基础上,再加上一定的应试技巧和策略,才能真正在考研英语中取得好成绩。
基于考研英语翻译的特点,结合翻译实践中具体的方法,我们在这部分的备考中应该注意:
1)第一,词汇量。考研的词汇考的是词汇的深度,而不是词汇的广度,也就是考查同学们能不能真正的掌握和运用这个词汇,真正在上下文中理解这个词汇。所以建议同学们不是单纯的、简单的、机械的记住词的意思,而要真正的理解词汇在上下文中的具体用法。所以,词汇的复习对于考研翻译,同时对阅读有着决定性的意义,建议大家准备的时候第一关首先要突破词汇关。
2)大家需要对文章中的长难句进行一个重点的突破。在这个过程中,具体来讲,大家应该更多的从语法分析的角度入手,分清句子的主干和修饰成分以及它们成分之间的逻辑关系,更好的理解句子。
3)考生平时要多注意英语文章的体裁的结构特点,以及各类文章的题材的表达法和术语的积累,以免在考研英语中的文章碰到自己不熟悉的文章内容的时候无从下手。
4)翻译部分需要多多练习。英汉是两种不同的语言,要用汉语地道的表达出英语真正的意思,还是需要一定的功底的。

考纲上关于翻译部分的规定是:“能将一般难度的英语短文译成汉语,理解基本正确,译文达意。”也就是说,翻译是一项对考生综合能力要求比较高的题型,它不仅要求考生对词汇、语法、语篇以及文化知识等有较好的掌握,还要求考生有很强的语言组织能力。
自1994,1995两年以来,再没有出现过主语从句的翻译题型考察。综合十几年的真题当中各个考点的出现频率,2011年极有可能再次出现主语从句的考察!所以这里希望广大考生再度重视真题。
1994年的考研英语翻译文章,题材为科学的发展,其中第75题考察了主语从句,如下:
1994. 75) Whether the government should increase the financing of pure science at the expense of technology or vice versa often depends on the issue of which is seen as the driving force。
评析:在考研英语的所有题型当中,有三个词可以引导主语从句,分别是how, what, 和whether。主语从句的持续长度,以动词的第三人称单数s为终止标志。即,从引导词开始,主从当中的所有具有动性的词及词组,都不是整句的谓语部分。
以此题为例,从whether开始,其余部分不需要考虑,只寻找动词的单三形式,我们发现了depends。那么,主语就是whether…technology。为什么不包括“or vice versa”?因为or 的出现,表明二选一的另外一种情况,此题中先不予考虑。主从当中,具有动性的词及词组分别是:should, increase, 但均非此题谓语部分,请大家务必注意。以depends on为谓语部分,后面的宾语及宾补很容易理解,以of 结构为核心,采取将修饰成分放在中心词之前。注意,此题当中的which,根据上下文,理解为“哪一个”的意思,因为具有实意,所以并非定语从句的引导词,这一点希望大家仔细判断。
我们得到的结构如下:“主语”依赖于哪一个被看作是驱动力的问题。以代入的方法处理,调整语序,在汉语中先原因、条件、状态、方式、对象、假设,后结果、影响,我们将主语从句当中的词序调整为:政府(核心词)是否应该以技术为代价(方式)来增加(动作)对纯科学(对象)的投资还是相反,经常取决于哪一个被看作是驱动力的问题。
此题当中,因为以or为标志,表明另一种情况,结合具体的语境,我们得知不但有“做不做”的问题,还有“转变条件,互为逆命题”的问题,在这里为了不赘述,所以原文用了拉丁语vice versa—“相反”。
又如1995. 72) How well the predictions will be validated by later performance depends upon the amount, reliability, and appropriateness of the information used, and on the skill and wisdom with which it is interpreted。
首先确定主语,从how开始,终止于depends。
句中以逗号和and连用为切分标志,表明分值的分布为前后各1分,无论写哪部分,都可以得分,请大家不要放弃任何机会,切记!在考研英语的各个题型当中,以and为标志,表明上下两个分局之间呈并列关系且同等重要,若上一分句中有相同的谓语部分或动词延续到and所在分句,那么在第二次出现时,英语中将其省略,汉语视情况决定是否补充。很明显,此题以how引导的主从为主语,谓语部分为depends upon (upon约等于on, 前者是后者的强调形式),带起的第一个宾语为“the amount,…of the information used”,可将其简化为 A, B, and C of D,第二个宾语为skill and wisdom,第二个宾语中的定语从句可以之后分析,但务必先明确整个句子的结构。
下面依次分析各个成分,并调整语序,最后组合:
主语中,按照英汉语序的不同,调整为“预测在多大程度上会由后来的表现所证明是有效的”;谓语部分“取决于”;宾语1:所使用信息的数量,可靠性和适当性,宾语2:使其得以解决的技巧和智慧,或者解决它所用到的技巧和智慧。
因此,该句的译文为:主语+依赖于+宾语1,+还依赖于+宾语2。
在介绍完以上两道题的思路之后,请大家以下题为例,自己练习:
1995. 73) Whether to use tests, other kinds of information, or both in a particular situation, depends, therefore, upon the evidences from experience concerning comparative validity, and on such factors as cost and availability。
思路:首先,以and为标志,(有无省略请判断)前后划分为各1分。其次,按照动词的单三标志,判断主语;谓语及宾语(是否带起双宾语?)第三,将各个成分中的单词按照语境翻译,并调整语序,最后组合成句。

阅读第一部分到第三部分主要是考对文章整体理解,难度比较大,也比较花时间,所以
这三部分可以花半个小时到40分钟的时间。第四部分到第六部分主要考语法、固定搭配和用
词,是很基础的东西,而且文章比较短,所以大概6分钟一篇也可以完成。
a) 第一部分,文段中的某些内容可能会在8个句子中提到,但是句子的用词会比较简单。 首先认真阅读前面8个句子,画出关键词,然后看文段,把相关的词语画出来,每看完一个 文段就找对应的句子,把文段中相关信息标上对应句子的序号,方便检查。过程中会出现很 混乱的情况,因为有些答案很隐蔽,也会有很多干扰信息,所以必须很认真地阅读。需要多 练习找感觉,要很有耐心,一般后两个文段的对应句子多点。
b) 第二部分,考查对文章结构的把握和整体理解,抽出来的句子一般都是很有逻辑关 系的。认真阅读文章,理清文章思路,特别仔细看空格前后句子,看空格处应该放转折关系 还是顺接关系还是其他,预测一下空格中要填的意思,然后从后面7个选项中寻找,如果找 不出来就先放着,先做后面的,要画出关键词,特别是表转折,表原因,表结果的词、
these,that 等代词,和人称代词等,这些都是答案提示。也是需要多联系找感觉,6个空格
中应该有一两个是比较容易选的。(这 part 是我觉得最难的,我经常错一半甚至以上)
c) 第三部分,考查对文章的整体理解。一般是6个段落对应6个题目,所以看一段做一 题。考的都是对整体段意的把握,不考细节。做这种题经常会出现看了答案以后还觉得自己 没有选错的情况,四个选项中只有一个是整体理解,其他都是断章取义。
d) 第四部分,主要考查固定搭配和词语辨析。四个选项经常都是意思相近的,但有些 是固定搭配,这种就是考基本功了,记得那个短语的就不难选了;难一点的就要区分四个词 了,根据上下文选。
e) 第五部分,主要考固定搭配和定冠词,连接词的使用。空格处填的基本上都只有唯 一答案的,所以一般不会是动词、形容词和副词,除非固定搭配。这题看上去很简单,但是 也很容易错,所以要非常仔细。建议拿一本本子作为错题本,把错的题都记录下来,因为每
商务英语在线学习:http://edu.21cn.com/kcnet410/ 2
次考的都是这些考点,全部掌握了出错几率就小了。
f) 第六部分,主要考语法,经常会出现多主语,多动词等,但是咋看上去又不觉得有 什么错误的,所以要非常仔细,认真分析句子的结构。也建议弄一本错题本。做多了对这些 错误就敏感多了。

等你做到阅读理解的时候,一定要注意把握时间。很多人根本就没时间做完,关键在于跳读。其实里面有很多是废话,与选项无关的。大家一般都知道要先看问题再去看文章,但要注意,你要看懂问题,然后就直接去文章里找答案。有一些问题是可以直接找到答案的。如果是关于作者的态度或者是给文章最好的标题,那就要特别注意最后一段了。态度绝大部分是中立的。标题最好是用排除法来选。记得用铅笔在看的过程中划出与选项有关的部分,这样方便整理。选项中太绝对的答案肯定是不对的,太简短的也不是。一般是很完整的,很全面的,很委婉的,很中立的答案才是对的。如果选项中有类似与俗语之类的,那一般是选它。如果你实在没时间做了,那么就选最长的那个选项。

下面有3篇短文,每篇短文后有5道题。请根据短文内容,为每题确定1个最佳选项。
Human Space Exploration
While scientists are searching the cause of the Columbia disaster, NASA is moving aheadwith plans to develop a new craft that would replace shuttles (航天飞机) on space station missions by 2012 and respond quickly to space station emergencies.
The space agency released the first set of mission needs and requirements several days agofor orbital space plane ( 轨道航天飞机), which would be designed to transport a crew of fourto and from the International Space Station.
Although it includes few specifics, the plan states the orbiter (轨道航天飞机) will besafer, cheaper and require less preparation time than the shuttle. It would be able to transportfour crew members by 2012 —— though it would be available for rescue missions by 2010. NASAsays the craft should be able to transport injured or ill space station crew members to "definitive(决定性的) medical care" within 24 hours.
The release of the requirements showed NASA remains focused on the long-term prioritiesof space exploration, even as questions exist concerning the loss of Columbia and its sevenmember crew on February 1, 2003.
Expels at Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, have been working foryears on a successor to the shuttle. The project, known as the Space Launch Initiative (倡议),was divided last year into two parts -- one focusing on a future launch vehicle, the other on aspace station orbiter. The orbiter is expected to be ready sooner.
The program's managers say NASA officials have told them not to alter Space Launch Initiative in light of the Columbia disaster.
U.S. President George W. Bush asked Congress for about US $1 billion for Space LaunchInitiative in 2004, funds that would be almost equally split between the Orbital Space Plane andNext Generation Launch Technology.
NASA plans to design the new space craft to_______.
A.control the International Space Station
B.carry astronauts to the International Space Station
C.transport equipment to the International Space Station
D.train astronauts in space flights
32、 Besides its main mission, the orbiter would also be used as_______.
A.a medical research center
B.a space station
C.a space ambulance
D.a passenger plane
33、 The design of the orbiter indicates _______.
A.NASA's determination to continue space exploration
B.NASA's disadvantage in space technology
C.the great pressure from Congress on NASA
D.a heavy defeat for NASA
34、 When did NASA start working on a successor to the shuttle?
A.One year before the Columbia disaster
B.One year after the Columbia disaster.
C.Immediately after the Columbia disaster.
D.Years before the Columbia disaster.
35、 According to the passage, the 1 billion funds, if granted, would
A.be used to rebuild the International Space Station
B.be awarded to the scientists working at NASA
C.be shared by the two projects under the Space Launch Initiative
D.be spent on the investigation of the Columbia disaster
Why Are America's Kids So Stressed
I'm usually fairly skeptical about any research that concludes that people are either happieror unhappier or more or less certain of themselves than they were 50 years ago. While any ofthese statements might be true, they are practically impossible to prove scientifically. Still, Iwas struck by a report which concluded that today's children are significantly more anxious thanchildren in the 1950s. In fact, the analysis showed, normal children ages 9 to 17 exhibit ahigher level of anxiety today than children who were treated for mental illness 50 years ago.
Why are America's kids so stressed? The report cites two main causes: increasing physicalisolation -- brought on by high divorce rates and less involvement in community, among otherthings -- and a growing perception that the world is a more dangerous place.
Given that we can't turn the clock back, adults can still do plenty to help the next generation cope.
At the top of the list is nurturing a better appreciation of the limits of individualism. Nochild is an island. Strengthening social ties helps build communities and protect individualsagainst stress.
To help kids build stronger connections with others, you can pull the plug on TVs andcomputers. Your family will thank you later. They will have more time for face-to-facerelationships, and they will get more sleep.
Limit the amount of virtual violence your children are exposed to. It's not just video games and movies; children see a lot of murder and crime on the local news.
Keep your expectations for your children reasonable. Many highly successful people never attended Harvard or Yale.
Make exercise part of your daily routine. It will help you cope with your own anxieties andprovide a good model for your kids. Sometimes anxiety is unavoidable. But it doesn't have toruin your life.

Clone Farm
Factory farming could soon enter a new era of mass production. Companies in the US aredeveloping the technology needed to "clone" chickens on a massive scale. Once a chicken withdesirable traits has been bred or genetically engineered tens of thousands of eggs, which willhatch into identical copies, could roll off the production lines every hour. Billions of clonescould be produced each year to supply chicken farms with birds that all grow at the same rate,have the same amount of meat and taste the same.
This, at least, is the vision of the US's National Institute of Science and Technology,which has given Origen, Therapeutics of Burlingame, California, and Embrex of North CarolinaUSD 4. 7 million to help fund research. The prospect has alarmed animal welfare groups, whofear it could increase the suffering of farm birds.
That's unlikely to put off the poultry industry, however, which wants disease-resistant birds that grow faster on less food. "Producers would like the same meat quantity but to use reducedinputs to get there", says Mike Fitzgerald of Origen. To meet this demand, Origen aims to"create an animal that is effectively cloned", he says. Normal cloning doesn't work in birdsbecause eggs can't be removed and implanted. Instead, the company is trying to bulk-growembryonic stem cells taken from fertilized eggs as soon as they're laid. "The trick is to culturethe cells without them starting to distinguish, so they remain pluripotent", says Fitzgerald. Using a long-established technique, these donor ceils will then be injected into the embryoof a freshly laid, fertilized recipient egg, forming a chick that is a "chimera". Strictly speakinga chimera isn't a clone, because it contains cells from both donor and recipient. But Fitzgeraldsays it will be enough, say, 95 percent of a chicken's body develops from donor cells. "In thepoultry world, it doesn't matter if it's not 100 percent," he says.
Another challenge for Origen is to scale up production. To do this, it has teamed up with"Embrex, which produces machines that can inject vaccines into up to 50, 000 eggs an hour.Embrex is now trying to modify the machines to locate the embryo and inject the cells intoprecisely the right spot without killing it.
In future, Origen imagines freezing stem cells from different strains of chicken. If orderscome in for a particular strain, millions of eggs could be produced in months or even weeks. Atpresent, maintaining all the varieties the market might call for is too expensive for breeders, andit takes years to breed enough chickens to produce the billions of eggs that farmers need.
Which statement is the best description of the new era of factory farming according to the first paragraph?
A.Eggs are all genetically engineered.
B.Thousands of eggs are produced every hour,
C.Cloned chickens are bulk-produced with the same growth rate, weight and taste.
D.Identical eggs can be hatched on the production lines.
42、 Which institution has offered USD 4. 7 million to fund the research?
A.The US's National Institute of Science and Technology.
B.Origen Therapeutics of Burlingame, California.
C.Embrex of North Carolina.
D.Animal welfare groups.
43、 In the third paragraph, by saying " Producers would like the same meat quantity but to use reduced inputs to get there" Mike Fitzgerald means that he wishes
A.chickens' quality could be maintained but with less investment
B.chickens' taste could be improved but at less costs
C.chickens' growth rate could be quickened but with less inputs
D.chickens could grow to the same weight but with less feed
44、 Which of the following statements about Origen and Embrex is correct according to the fifth paragraph?
A.Origen and Embrex will jointly invent machines to increase production.
B.Origen wants to purchase an efficient donor cell-injecting machine.
C.Origen has joined hands with Embrex in producing cell-injecting machines.
D.Origen is the leading company in producing embryo-locating machines.
45、 The technology of freezing stem cells from different strains of chicken can do all the following EXCEPT that
A.farmers can order certain strains of chicken only
B.Origen can supply all the strains of chicken the market might need
C.chicken farmers order certain strains of chicken for economic reasons
D.chicken farmers can be supplied with whatever they need

Do your parents talk to you? Are you happy in class? We hope so, but it’s not always like that. And not only Chinese students have school and faimly problems, but also foreign kids.
The United Nations studied children’s lives in the world’s 21 richest countries. It found that the Netherlands, Sweden and Denmark are the best places to grow up. Although the United States and Britain are among the richest countries, they are at the bottom of the list.
The study looked at the lives of children in six ways. These were: the numbers of poor kids; their health and safety; education; relationships with friends and family; their behavior; how happy they were with their lives.
Bullying is a big problem in British schools. Nearly 40 percent of the kids in the study had been bullied in the previous two months.
The study also shows that children in Ireland and Canada take the most exercise every day. “Lots of money does not mean a happy childhood”, says the report. The Czech Republic is not a rich country, but its children have happier lives.

(B )
From a plane we can see the fields, cities, mountains or seas below. If we go into space, we see more and more of the earth. People and man-made satellites have been sent out into space to look at the earth carefully and people have learnt more about the earth in the last few years. The sea looks very beautiful when the sun is shining on it. But it can be very terrible when there is a strong wind.
The sea is very big. It nearly covers three quarters of the earth. The sea is also very deep in some places. There is one place and at that place the sea is about 11 kilometres deep. The highest mountain in the world is about 9 kilometres high. If that mountain was put into the sea at that place, there would be still 2 kilometres of water above it!
In most parts of the sea, there are many kinds of fishes and plants. Some live near the top of the sea. Others live deep down. There are also a lot of small living things, and lots of fishes live by eating them.
The sea can be very cold. When people go down, the sea becomes colder and colder. Only some men can go down into the deep sea. But, in 1970, five women scientists lived in the deep sea for fourteen days.
