湖北省第十三屆外語翻譯大賽英語專業(yè)組決賽試題

I．下面的英語段落后提供的漢語譯文有未完成的地方，這些未完成的地方用劃線標(biāo)出，并均提供了三個(gè)譯文（分別標(biāo)為A,B,C），請(qǐng)選擇你認(rèn)為最好的譯文.（2x10=20%）

Be very wary of opinions that flatter your self-esteem.①Both men and women, ②nine times out of ten, are firmly convinced of the superior excellence of their own sex.There is abundant evidence on both sides.If you are a man, you can point out that most poets and men of science are male;if you are a woman, you can retort that so are most criminals.③The question is inherently insoluble, but self-esteem conceals this from most people.We are all, whatever part of the world we come from, ④persuaded that our own nation is superior to all others.Seeing that each nation has its characteristic merits and demerits, ⑤we adjust our standard of values so as to make out that the merits possessed by our nation are the really important ones, while its demerits are comparatively trivial.⑥Here, again, the rational man will admit that the question is one to which there is no demonstrably right answer.It is more difficult ⑦to deal with the self-esteem of man as man, because we cannot argue out the matter with some non-human mind.The only way I know of dealing with this general human conceit ⑧is to remind ourselves that man is a brief episode in the life of a small planet in a little corner of the universe, ⑨and that for aught we know, other parts of the cosmos may contain beings ⑩as superior to ourselves as we are to jelly-fish.對(duì)于那些容易助長你狂妄自大的觀點(diǎn)尤宜提防。①??②??雙方都有不可勝數(shù)的證據(jù)。如果你自己是男性，你可以指出大多數(shù)詩人和科學(xué)家都是男子；而如果你是女性，你可以用大多數(shù)罪犯也都是男子來反唇相譏。③??但是，自尊心卻使大多數(shù)人看不到這一點(diǎn)。不管我們屬于世界上哪個(gè)國家，④??看到每個(gè)民族都有自己特有的長處和短處，⑤??以便證明自己民族的長處乃是真正重要的長處，而其缺點(diǎn)相對(duì)來說則微不足道。⑥??由于我們無法和人類之外的智者辯論清楚，所以就更難⑦??就我所知，處理這個(gè)普遍存在的人類自高自大問題的唯一方法就是⑧??⑨??宇宙中其他地方還有一些生物，⑩??

①

不論男人或女人，男人和女人們，男人和女人，②十之八九都堅(jiān)信男性或女性特別優(yōu)越。十之八九都堅(jiān)信自己性別的優(yōu)越。

十之八九都堅(jiān)信自己的性別比對(duì)方優(yōu)越。③

這個(gè)問題天生就無法解決； 這個(gè)問題本來就無法解決； 這個(gè)問題本來是無法解決的； ④

我們總是認(rèn)為自己的民族比所有其他民族都優(yōu)越。大家總是認(rèn)為我們自己的民族比所有其他民族都優(yōu)越。大家總是被說服自己的民族比所有其他民族都優(yōu)越。⑤

我們就要調(diào)整自己的價(jià)值標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，我們卻調(diào)整自己的價(jià)值標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，我們就把自己的價(jià)值標(biāo)準(zhǔn)加以調(diào)整，⑥

在這個(gè)問題上，一位明白事理的人也一定會(huì)承認(rèn)，它沒有明顯正確的答案。在這個(gè)問題上，理智的人會(huì)承認(rèn)這個(gè)問題是沒有可以論證的正確答案的。這里，明白事理的人一定會(huì)承認(rèn)，它沒有明顯正確的答案。⑦

處理人的自高自大的問題，處理人之作為人的自高自大的問題，處理作為“人”的自尊問題，⑧

要經(jīng)常提醒自己，在茫茫宇宙中的小角落的小星球的生命史上，人只是一個(gè)簡短的插曲，要經(jīng)常提醒自己，在茫茫宇宙中一個(gè)小小角落的一顆小小星球的生命史上，人類僅僅是一個(gè)短暫的插曲，要經(jīng)常提醒自己，人類只是宇宙中小小角落里一個(gè)小行星上生命的短暫插曲而已，⑨

而且，說不定，并且，我們知道，我們知道，⑩

他們優(yōu)越于我們的生命，就像我們優(yōu)越于水母一樣。他們優(yōu)越于我們像我們優(yōu)越于水母。

他們優(yōu)越于我們的程度不亞于我們優(yōu)越于水母的程度。

常聽到這樣的抱怨：做女人真是吃力。我深有同感。細(xì)究起來，① 這種吃力，不僅是體力上的，更主要的是心理上的。

② 在我們還是小女孩的時(shí)候，我們就懂得一條千真萬確的道理：女人是半邊天，男女都一樣。那時(shí)候，這口號(hào)被我們喊在嘴里，心里只感到驕傲與豪邁；那時(shí)候，③ 這口號(hào)被我們努力地落實(shí)為行為，確實(shí)體現(xiàn)出了女人和男人有一樣的智慧一樣的能力一樣的才干，什么“鐵姑娘隊(duì)”、“三八包車組”、“女飛行員”等等，總之，在各行各業(yè)女人們的表現(xiàn)絕不落后于男人；總之，④ 男人能夠做到的事情女人沒有辦不到的；總之，⑤ 女人和男人應(yīng)該而且必須并駕齊驅(qū)?！澳信家粯印钡目谔?hào)，那么響亮地被貫徹了幾十年，并組成為一種世界觀，影響著我們的人生，而且，⑥ 這口號(hào)還是一種具有歷史意義的標(biāo)志——中國婦女解放的標(biāo)志。但我不能認(rèn)同。

萬事萬物由方方面面組成，⑦ 而那個(gè)“男女都一樣”的口號(hào)，只是向女人提出要求，卻沒有相同的口號(hào)要求男人和女人做得一樣：一樣耐心持久地?fù)嵊⒆?；一樣任勞任怨地操持家?wù)；一樣盡心盡責(zé)地伺奉老人。仔細(xì)想想，⑧ “男女都一樣”的口號(hào)曾鼓舞著許多婦女竭力地建樹了和男人一樣的豐功偉績，同時(shí)，⑨ 女人卻依然要做那些男人不屑一顧的事情。其實(shí)，⑩ 所謂“一樣”的口號(hào)，使女人們?cè)谧鲋说耐瑫r(shí)再做男人；其實(shí)，所謂“一樣”的口號(hào)，讓女人們又給自己加重一挑擔(dān)子；其實(shí)，女人和男人在根本上還是不一樣。

Why is this? The reason is that the strange and bitter miracle of life is nowhere else so evident as in our youth.And what is the essence of that strange and bitter miracle of life which we feel so poignantly, so unutterably, with such a bitter pain and joy, when we are young? It is this: that being rich, we are so poor;that being mighty, we can yet have nothing;that seeing, breathing, smelling, tasting all around us the impossible wealth and glory of this earth, feeling with an intolerable certitude that the whole structure of the enchanted life----the most fortunate, wealthy, good, and happy life that any man has ever known----is ours----is ours at once, immediately and forever, the moment that we choose to take a step, or stretch a hand, or say a word----we yet know that we really keep, hold, take and possess forever----nothing.All passes;nothing lasts: the moment that we put our hand upon it, it

melts away like smoke, is gone forever, and the snake is eating at our heart again;we see then what we are and what our lives must come to.(15分)

The gods, they say, give breath, and they take it away.But the same could be said----could it not?----of the humble comma.Add it to the present clause, and, of a sudden, the mind is, quite literally, given pause to think;take it out if you wish or forget it and the mind is deprived of a resting place.Yet still the comma gets no respect.It seems just a slip of a thing, a pedant’s(書呆子)tick, a blip（光點(diǎn)）on the edge of our consciousness, a kind of printer’s smudge（污點(diǎn)）almost.Small, we claim, is beautiful(especially in the age of the microchip).Yet what is so often used, and so rarely called, as the comma----unless it be breath itself?(5分)
