新標(biāo)準(zhǔn)大學(xué)英語(yǔ)4翻譯答案

1、新標(biāo)準(zhǔn)大學(xué)英語(yǔ)4翻譯答案Unit 1我認(rèn)為，選修第二專業(yè)并不適合每一位本科生。我大學(xué)本科主修英語(yǔ)專業(yè)，大一時(shí)就開(kāi)始輔修經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)了。無(wú)疑，我是班里最用功的學(xué)生。我竭盡全力想同時(shí)達(dá)到兩個(gè)不同專業(yè)的要求，但還是有不及格的時(shí)候。因?yàn)榻?jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)需要良好的數(shù)學(xué)基礎(chǔ)，我不得不花大量時(shí)間鉆研數(shù)學(xué)，因而忽略了英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)。第二學(xué)期,英國(guó)文學(xué)及宏觀經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)兩門課不及格給我敲響了警鐘，這可是我一生中第一次考試不及格，這大大打擊了我的自信心。雖然我不是一個(gè)容易向命運(yùn)低頭的人，在暑假結(jié)束的時(shí)候，我還是決定放棄經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)，以免兩個(gè)專業(yè)都難以完成。當(dāng)我只需修一個(gè)專業(yè)的時(shí)候，一切似乎又回到了正軌。(if you ask me; by all

3、ing student in my class. But try as I might to meet the requirements of the two different subjects, I still couldn't do well enough to pass all the exams. Given that the study of economics required a good command of mathematics, I had to spend so much time on math that I neglected my English.Fai

4、ling English Literature and Macroeconomics in the second term sounded the alarm for me. This was the first time I did not pass a course in my life, which had greatly sapped my confidence. Although I was not a man who would easily bow to fate, as the summer break came to a close, I decided to give up

5、 economics for fear that I would fail both subjects. Now that I had only one subject to attend to, everything seemed to be on the right track again.Unit 2張磊是在畢業(yè)工作后才開(kāi)始意識(shí)到讀書的樂(lè)趣的。反思自己的大學(xué)教育時(shí)，他感慨不已：他的一些同學(xué)都沉浸于從圖書館或書店找到的各種有趣的書籍，而他卻只讀了一些教科書，其中連一本真正值得一讀、讓他愛(ài)不釋手的書都沒(méi)有。他可以說(shuō)是被剝奪了通過(guò)書了解作家奇妙世界的特權(quán)。如今，他嗜書如命，廢寢忘食，好像要把大

6、學(xué)期間沒(méi)機(jī)會(huì)讀的好書全都讀一遍。到目前為止他已經(jīng)利用業(yè)余時(shí)間讀了幾百本小說(shuō)、傳記和游記。他意識(shí)到書不僅能向他展示一個(gè)充滿希望的前景，幫他消除現(xiàn)實(shí)生活中的壓力和疲勞，而且能夠幫他澄清一些誤解，找到生活的真諦。(reflect on; immerse in; lay hands on; worthwhile; in one sitting; so to speak; vista; withstand)It was not until after he had graduated from university and started to work that Zhang Lei became aw

Reflecting on his undergraduate studies, he lamented that he, unlike some of his classmates who had immersed themselves in various interesting books they were able to lay hands on from the library or bookshops, had only read textbooks, none of which was really worthwh

He realizes that books can not only reveal to him the vista of a hopeful future and help him withstand stresses and strains, they can also

10、help him clear up some misconceptions and discover the true meaning of life.Unit 3一個(gè)人的穿著似乎能影響他的行為方式。譬如，在校內(nèi)要穿校服是中小學(xué)生所必須嚴(yán)格遵守的規(guī)矩之一。倘若在學(xué)生著裝整齊劃一和行為的統(tǒng)一規(guī)范之間不存在一種象征性關(guān)聯(lián)的話，校服便不可能如此盛行。然而，多年的學(xué)校生活讓學(xué)生在內(nèi)心里對(duì)隨處可見(jiàn)的校服產(chǎn)生了抵觸情緒，校服畢竟壓制了個(gè)性的表達(dá)。為了彌補(bǔ)這種損失，學(xué)生常常會(huì)在周末穿流行的休閑裝。直到上了大學(xué)，他們才會(huì)享受真正的著裝自由，而服裝上的無(wú)序與大學(xué)培養(yǎng)創(chuàng)造力、鼓勵(lì)自由表達(dá)思想及展露才華密切相關(guān)?？?/p>

11、惜這樣的好景不會(huì)太長(zhǎng)，經(jīng)過(guò)一段相對(duì)短暫的自由之后，他們?cè)诋厴I(yè)工作之后將再次經(jīng)歷著裝規(guī)范的壓力。(hard and fast; there is no doubt that; currency; correlation; backlash; ubiquitous; compensate for; anarchy; obtain; revive)What you wear seems to dictate your behaviour. Take primary school and high school students for example. One of the hard and fas

12、t rules they have to observe is that they must wear uniforms at school. There is no doubt that school uniforms would not have achieved their currency without a symbolic correlation between the uniformity of clothes and the students' conformity to some common code of conduct.However, after years

13、of school life, there is always a backlash secretly nursed in the students' mind against the ubiquitous uniform which suppresses the expression of individuality. To compensate for this loss, students usually wear more casual and popular clothes on weekends. It is not until they start university,

But this situation won't obtain for long. After a relatively short time of liberty, they may experience again the rev

16、這種方法恐怕不太可行。要推進(jìn)社團(tuán)活動(dòng)，同時(shí)又不使經(jīng)費(fèi)超支，我們必須群策群力，拿出別的籌錢方法，而不是僅僅依賴學(xué)校撥款和會(huì)員費(fèi)。(when it comes to; carve out; pare down; cut back on; bottom line; go into the red; pool; in lieu of)When it comes to the effects of the current economic downturn, the decrease of student activities is a good case in point. To enliven ca

17、mpus life, the university is always willing to carve out some money for activities organized by student clubs and societies, but such sponsorships have been pared down this year because of huge budget cut. Apparently, student organizations need to weather their own financial crisis if they want to r

18、ecover from their current state of inactiveness. Some suggest enrolling more club members, on the ground that the consequent increase of membership fees may help them get out of the difficulty.No doubt, if we have more members paying the annual fee, and if we cut back on our daily expenses, we can s

19、pare some money to organize activities. But the bottom line is that the expenses of these activities are in proportion to the number of participants. I'm afraid this won't be of much help. To boost student activities and to avoid going into the red, we still need to pool our ideas and come u

20、p with some other ways of raising money, in lieu of just relying on university grants and membership fees.Unit 5我們對(duì)理想丈夫或理想妻子的假設(shè)顯示出我們的性別期待以及我們對(duì)性別期待的反應(yīng)。如果大多數(shù)年輕姑娘希望她們的未婚夫強(qiáng)悍、能干、可靠，那么小伙子們也就別無(wú)選擇，只能把自己訓(xùn)練得強(qiáng)悍、能干、可靠，這樣才能贏得女孩子的芳心。如果他們的做法與性別期待背道而馳，那么他們很可能會(huì)在悲嘆自己的光棍生涯中度過(guò)下半輩子。根據(jù)同樣的不成文法則，如果多數(shù)年輕男子希望他們的未婚妻溫柔體貼、耐心、忠貞，

21、認(rèn)為這些比什么都重要，那么姑娘即便不是這種人，也會(huì)假裝自己將來(lái)會(huì)成為賢妻良母。深入研究一下這種性別期待，我們就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)這是受生理和社會(huì)因素制約的。無(wú)疑，女性為孕育嬰兒做好了生理準(zhǔn)備，而男人則完全不適合這項(xiàng)工作。男人只有努力掙錢養(yǎng)家，才能讓一家人過(guò)上好日子。(presumption; option; other than; bemoan; unwritten rule; to be prone to; let on; goes without saying)Our presumptions about what ideal husbands or wives are like reveal a l

23、 they will most probably bemoan their bachelor's status for the rest of their lives. Following the same unwritten rule, if most boys expect their fiancées to be caring, patient and faithful more than anything else, girls are prone to let on that they will become faithful wives and loving mo

It goes without saying that women are physically prepared to bear children, whereas men are utterly unfit for the job. Therefore, a family is better of

25、f when its male members devote their time to providing food and other necessities for it.Unit 6為保證校園的安全，校方最近發(fā)布了一項(xiàng)新的規(guī)定，禁止小商販進(jìn)入校園。校長(zhǎng)呼吁學(xué)生在這件事上與學(xué)校合作。學(xué)生們表示強(qiáng)烈反對(duì)，幾百名學(xué)生在學(xué)校的BBS上表達(dá)了他們的憤怒。他們說(shuō)，因?yàn)樾@離市中心很遠(yuǎn)，校內(nèi)商店里的貨品又不多，把小販趕出校園就無(wú)異于把學(xué)生扔到孤島上。有些人提出，正是在這樣的事情上，學(xué)校應(yīng)該聽(tīng)取學(xué)生的意見(jiàn)和需求。有些學(xué)生認(rèn)為，這項(xiàng)規(guī)定能讓校園更安全的想法是錯(cuò)誤的。學(xué)生的反應(yīng)讓校長(zhǎng)感到震驚，為彌補(bǔ)過(guò)失，

26、他宣布學(xué)校將重新考慮這項(xiàng)規(guī)定。他對(duì)學(xué)生說(shuō)，他們完全有權(quán)力過(guò)上方便、舒適的生活，但校園的安全也同樣重要。他還提議在校園里建一個(gè)大超市，在宿舍樓附近開(kāi)一些便利店 (convenience store)，這樣就能大大方便學(xué)生們的生活。(it's for matters of this kind; get sth wrong; make amends; be entitled to)To make the campus safer, the university authorities recently released a new regulation that forbids any ve

But the students' opposition was strong, and hundreds of them expressed their anger on the university BBS. They said that to keep vendors off campus was like deserting studen

Some claimed that it was precisely for matters of this kind that the university should listen to students' opinions and needs. Some students thought the univ

29、ersity had got it wrong in believing that this regulation will ensure safety on campus.Shocked by students' reaction, the president tried to make amends for this mistake by announcing that the university will look into this new regulation again. He told students that they were entitled to live a

30、 convenient and comfortable life, but safety was just as much an important concern as that. He proposed to build a big supermarket within the campus and some convenience stores near dormitory buildings, which would certainly make students' life much easier.Unit 7在畢業(yè)典禮上，一家知名IT公司的經(jīng)驗(yàn)豐富的CTO托馬斯克拉克給14
