Ⅰ . Translate the fallow ing passage into C hinese, using the answ er sheet provided. (35 points)
A Language in Transition
A s the world is in transition, so the English language is itself taking new forms. This, of
course, has always been true: English has changed substantially in the 1500 years or so of its use,
reflecting patterns of contact with other languages and the changing communication needs of
people. But in many parts of the world, as English is taken into the fab ric of social life, it acquires
a momentum and vitality of its own, developing in ways which reflect local culture and languages,
while diverging increasingly from the kind of English spoken in Britain or N orth A merica.
English is also used for more purposes than ever before. Everywhere it is at the leading edge
of technological and scientific development, new thinking in economics and management, new
literatures and entertainment genres. These give rise to new vocabularies, grammatical forms and
ways of speaking and writing. N owhere is the effect of this expansion of English into new
domains seen more clearly than in communication on the Internet and the development of „net
English‟.
But the language is, in another way, at a critical moment in its global ca reer: within a decade
or so, the number of people who speak English as a second language will exceed the number of
native speakers. The implications of this are likely to be far reaching: the centre of authority
regarding the language will shift from native speakers as they become minority stakeholders in the
global resource. Their literature and television may no longer provide the focal point of a global
English language culture, their teachers no longer form the unchallenged authoritative models for
learners.
Ⅱ . Translate the follow ing passage into C hinese, using the answ er sheet provided. (35 points)
Shadow Lake
The colour-beauty about Shadow Lake during the Indian summer is much richer than one
could hope to find in so young and so glacial a wilderness. A lmost every leaf is tinted then, and
the goldenrods are in bloom; but most of the colour is given by the ripe grasses, willows, and
aspens. A t the foot of the lake you stand in a trembling aspen grove, every leaf painted like a
butterfly, and away to right and left round the shores sweeps a curving ribbon of meadow, red and
brown dotted with pale yellow, shading off here and there into hazy purple. The walls, too, are
dashed with bits of bright colour that gleam out on the neutral granite grey. But neithe r the walls,
nor the margin meadow, nor yet the gay, fluttering grove in which you stand, nor the lake itself,
flashing with spangles, can long hold your attention; for at the head of the lake there is a gorgeous
mass of orange-yellow, belonging to the main aspen belt of the basin, which seems the very
fountain whence all the colour below it had flowed, and here your eye is filled and fixed. This
glorious mass is about thirty feet high, and extends across the basin nearly from wall to wall. Rich
bosses of w illow flame in front of it, and from the base of these the brown meadow comes forward
to the water‟s edge, the whole being relieved against the unyielding green of the coniferae, while
thick sun-gold is poured over all.
D uring these blessed colour-days on cloud darkens the sky, the winds are gentle, and the landscape
rests, hushed everywhere, and indescribably impressive. A few ducks are usually seen sailing on
the lake, apparently more for pleasure than anything else, and the ouzels at the head of
