考博英语英译汉专项练习（1-6，含详解）
专项练习 1
Top colleges and universities are rushing into online education, but the big news is the proliferation of a
new breed of for-profit online institutions bringing Internet education to the masses. “The Internet will
probably be the single most democratizing force in education,” says Columbia Business School Dean Meyer
Feldberg, who envisions educational programs being routed through the Net to hundreds of millions of people.
The largest online institution is the University of Phoenix (http://onl.uophx.edu/), with some 6, 000 students
today and hopes of reaching 200, 000 students in 10 years. The University offers bachelor’s, master’s, and
doctoral degrees in business management, technology, education and nursing. The institution boasts that if
you’re a student “you can earn your degree via the Internet whenever and wherever you want.” The University
notes that its degree programs cost far less and may take some students far less time to complete. On the other
hand, a Business Week survey of 247 companies found that only a handful would consider hiring applicants
who earned their MBA degrees online. Whether that will change as for-profit online universities improve their
offerings—and graduates prove their worth—is anyone’s guess.

目前一些顶尖高等院校正仓促进行在线教育，但是传出的一条重要消息却是一种新的旨在盈利的在
线机构的激增，这些机构正在把因特网网上教育带给广大民众。“因特网或许会是进入教育领域的惟一
的最民主化的力量，”哥伦比亚商业学校教务长 Meyer Feldberg 说。他设想通过教育节目的网络来连接
亿万民众。最大的在线的教育机构是凤凰大学( http://onl.uophx.edu/ ), 它目前拥有大约 6000 名学生，并
且 10 年内学生总数有望达到 200000 人。该大学向学生授予商务管理、技术、教育及护理学等专业的学
士、硕士和博士学位。学校夸口说，如果你是一个学生，“无论何时何地只要你需要，都可以通过因特
网来获取学位”。学校特别提到，它的学位课程费用要比一般大学少得多，而且可以让一些学生花较少
的时间就完成大学学业。另一方面，一份《商务周刊》的调查发现在 247 家公司中，只有少数几家会考
虑雇佣获得网上商务管理硕士学位的求职者。这种情况是否会随着盈利性在线大学教学条件的改善而改
变——毕业生是否能证明他们自身的价值——这一切都还是一个未知数。
专项练习 2
What makes Silicon Valley such a unique entity? There are several crucial factors. First and foremost, it
has the largest concentration of brilliant computer professionals and the best supporting services in the world,
and easy access to world-class research institutions, like Stanford University, which continually nurtures would
be geniuses which the industry needs in order to move forward. Without these advantages, the Valley would be
a different place. Secondly, it actively encourages, or even exalts, risk-taking. Hence, failure holds no terror
and there is no stigma attached to a failed effort. On the contrary, they will try even harder next time round. A
third decisive factor is the vital role of venture capitalists who willingly support promising start-ups with
urgently needed initial capital to get them started. Some would even give failed entrepreneurs a second chance
if convinced that a flesh concept might lead to eventual success. Of equal importance, many bright young
people and middle level professionals are keen to work for a new venture at substantially reduced
remuneration, as it offers more scope for entrepreneurship and job satisfaction than the established companies.

美国硅谷与众不同，究竟秘诀何在呢?这里面有若干至关重要的因素。首先，硅谷有着世界最大、
最密集的优秀电脑专才群体、最佳的后援服务体系，并紧密联系着斯坦福大学等世界一流的研究机构，
而后者正源源不断地培育出电脑业赖以发展的明日天才。若缺少这些有利条件，硅谷的面貌便会大不一
样。其次，硅谷大力提倡、甚至鼓吹颂扬冒险精神。因此失败并不可怕，尝试失败者也无人耻笑。失败
