第四篇:新標(biāo)準(zhǔn)大學(xué)英語綜合教程2課后題翻譯答案
Unit 1政府采取的一系列措施不但沒有化解矛盾,反倒激起更多的暴力沖突。反對黨聯(lián)合工會發(fā)動了一次大罷工,最終導(dǎo)致政府的垮臺。(give rise to;form an alliance with;launch;bring about)
Instead of resolving contradictions, the series of measures taken by the government gave rise to more violent clashes.The Opposition formed an alliance with the trade unions and launched a general strike, which ultimately brought about the downfall of the government.如今,大學(xué)與現(xiàn)實世界的距離越來越小,學(xué)生也變得越來越實際。從前,大學(xué)是一象牙塔,學(xué)者追求的是學(xué)問本身而不是把學(xué)問作為達(dá)到目的的手段,但這樣的時代已經(jīng)一去不復(fù)返了。(shrink;gone are the days;a means to an end)
Nowadays, the gap between the university and the real world is shrinking and the students are becoming more and more practical.Gone are the days when the university was an ivory tower in which scholars pursued knowledge as an end rather than a means to an end.我從未指望靠上課來學(xué)好這門課。但我確實去聽課,因為在課上我能了解這門課的重點,學(xué)會如何組織材料、如何推理。(hope;by doing …;the place where)
I never hoped to learn the subject well by attending those lectures.But I did go to lectures, for it was the place where I could get the important points of the course and learn how to organize materials and how to reason.我一直想方設(shè)法解決這個難題,但就是找不到滿意的答案??墒钱?dāng)我去廚房喝飲料的時候,我突然間靈機一動,意識到解決問題的方法實際上可能很簡單。(work out;click)
Although I have been trying every means to solve the problem, I cannot work out a satisfactory solution.But when I went to the kitchen to get a drink, something clicked and made me realize that the solution might be quite simple.Unit 3這些文件很重要,內(nèi)容要絕對保密。如果要處理掉的話,應(yīng)先把它們切碎,而不是直接當(dāng)垃圾扔掉。(content of which;tear up;instead of)
These are important documents, the content of which should be kept strictly
confidential.If you need to dispose them, you must shred them instead of throwing them out with the trash.現(xiàn)在,像偽造支票、身份證和信用卡這類的白領(lǐng)犯罪已變得相當(dāng)普遍。盡管我們學(xué)會了許多防止被騙的招數(shù),可是看起來我們隨時都可能被騙。(forge;prevent…from)
Nowadays, white-collar crimes such as forging checks, ID cards and credit cards have become very common.Though we have learnt much about how to prevent ourselves from being cheated, it seems that we could be its victims at any time.地震已過去了好幾個月,生活恢復(fù)了正常。人們與平時一樣忙著各自的事情。但一個無法回避的事實是,地震給人們帶來的精神創(chuàng)傷也許永遠(yuǎn)無法抹去。(go about;there is no escaping the fact that…;mental trauma;wipe out)
It has been several months since the earthquake.Life has returned to normal, and people are busy going about their business.But there is no escaping the fact that the mental trauma the earthquake brought to people will never be wiped out.為什么說一個圖書館擁有大量可供隨時閱覽的新書及電子圖書資源很重要呢?因為那樣的話,學(xué)者們就可以了解自己學(xué)科領(lǐng)域里的最新進(jìn)展,知道自己的研究是否有價值。(matter;readily available to;if so)
Why does it matter that a library has many new books and electronic resources readily available to the readers? This is because if so, the scholars know the latest development in their own fields and know whether their research is valuable.Unit 4這個消息來得如此突然、如此令人震驚,我在沙發(fā)上呆呆地坐了幾分鐘。我的第一本能就是趕緊打電話把這件事告訴領(lǐng)導(dǎo),看看我們能為那些在這起交通事故中死傷的同事做些什么。(so… that;first instinct)
So sudden, so striking was the news that I sat motionless on sofa for a few minutes.My first instinct was to call our leaders to tell them what had happened and see what we can do for those colleagues who died or got injured in this traffic accident.2 紙版的兒童書與電子書相比有很大的優(yōu)勢。對孩子們來說,一本印刷精美的紙版書不僅是一本書也是一個玩具。讀紙版書的感覺與在屏幕上讀書的感覺是很不同的。(have advantage over;be different from)
Paper books for children have an enormous advantage over e-books.For children, a beautifully printed paper book is not only a book but also a toy they can play with.Reading a paper book is rather different from reading a book on the screen.3近年來在西方國家,傳統(tǒng)媒體呈現(xiàn)出衰退的趨勢,新媒體迅速發(fā)展。然而新媒體的收入又不足以彌補傳統(tǒng)媒體丟失的市場份額。(in the tendency of;not necessarily;when it comes to)
In recent years, traditional media in the western countries are in the tendency of decline and new media are developing rapidly.However, this does not necessarily mean that tradition media have lost the market.When it comes to reading things like news, people are still used to such traditional media as newspaper.隨著金融危機的爆發(fā),許多企業(yè)陷入了困境。對于那些因缺乏流動資金無法進(jìn)行再生產(chǎn)又不想讓惡性循環(huán)繼續(xù)下去的企業(yè),他們唯一能做的事情就是向政府求助。(find oneself in difficulty;turn to)
With the explosion of the financial crisis, many enterprises find themselves in difficulties.For those who have no circulating fund to invest on new production and would not let the vicious circle continue, the only thing they can do is to turn to government for help.Unit 8
1.整天把自己埋在書本里是沒有用的。要培養(yǎng)一些業(yè)余愛好,每隔一段時間參加一些體育鍛煉或課外活動。勞逸結(jié)合才是健康的學(xué)習(xí)習(xí)慣。(it’s no use doing sth;take up;at intervals;extracurricular activities)
It’s no use burying yourselves in books all day.You’d better take up some hobbies and take part in sports or extracurricular activities at intervals.A healthy study habit is to keep a balance between work and rest.2.工作選對了,不但是可以維持生計的手段,還來可以幫你擺脫無聊,是你不用擔(dān)心接受了多年的高等教育之后會虛度人生。(a means of sustenance;banish sth from one’s mind)
If your job is rightly chosen, it will not only give you a means of sustenance, but also help escape from the boredom and banish from you mind the worry about learning a meaningless life after so many years of higher education.3.手頭沒有事情可做時,他常常主動幫助社區(qū)做些義務(wù)勞動。很有可能是受到他的影響,社區(qū)里越來越多的人加入到了志愿者的行列。(at hand;it may well be that)
When he had nothing to do at hand, he used to do volunteer to do something for his community.It may well be that under his influence more and more people in the community joined in to become volunteers.4.我以前看電視連續(xù)劇常??吹缴钜?,這太費時間,還影響我的健康和體型。為了避免誘惑,我把電視機搬出了我的屋子,開始從事別的休閑活動,比如讀書、彈鋼琴。(risk;take up)I used to watch TV series late into the night, which took up too much time and risked my health and shape.To avoid temptation, I removed the TV set from my room and took up other leisure activities such as reading and playing piano.Unit 9
1.如今對中國的中學(xué)畢業(yè)生而言,上大學(xué)已經(jīng)不是什么太困難的事情了,因為現(xiàn)在大學(xué)的數(shù)量已經(jīng)是二十年前的三倍。但是,要被一流大學(xué)錄取,你還是要比同齡人有更強的競爭力才行。(times…as many…)
Nowadays in china, it’s no longer so hard for high school graduates to go to university, because there are three times as many universities as there were 20 years ago.But to be admitted by a first-class university, you still need to be more competitive than your peers.2.你花錢參加這個項目是很值的,因為你從中獲取的職業(yè)技能可以改善你的就業(yè)前景,而且你所有的努力終將會得到回報。(acquire;prospects;pay off)
It is worthwhile to spend money on this project, for the career skills you acquire in the process will help improve your prospects in your search for a job and all your efforts will eventually pay off.3.雖然通過和這些志愿者并肩工作,我可以學(xué)會怎樣與他人合作,但我得叫參加費。我不得不承認(rèn)為此我正在花更多的時間去兼職掙錢,這讓我總覺的時間不夠用。(work side by side with/alongside …;acknowledge;save up for)
Though I can learn teamwork by working side by side with these volunteers, I need to pay for the participation.I have to acknowledge that I am now spending more time doing part-time jobs to save up for the project, which makes me feel a shortage of time.4.不同的運動在身高、年齡、力量、耐力等方面對參加者有不同的要求。因此有多少種運動就有多少種類型的運動員。想?yún)⒓舆\動的人總能找到合適的項目。(in terms of;as many …as;no doubt)
Different sports have different requirements in terms of height, age, strength and
stamina/endurance.Therefore, there are as many types of athletes as there are sports.There can be no doubt that who wants to get some exercise can find the right sport.
