【译之灵翻译培训】2015年11月catti三级口译真题
(英汉实务)
【译之灵翻译培训】以下为2015年11月catti三级口译实务,英译汉部分真题,选择美国驻华大使于(United States Ambassador to China)马克斯.博卡斯(Max Baucus)2015年1月28日在昆明博物馆演讲:
AMBASSADOR BAUCUS: Thank you so very much Mr. Tian Jian. I deeply appreciate that introduction. I want to also thank the tour director who gave us a wonderful tour through the museum. Bai Hong and Yang Fuquan, Vice President of the local Academy of Social Science who I just met, as well as Lu Tianyun, Director General of the Foreign Affairs Office up here at Kunming.
博卡斯大使:非常感谢田健先生。我由衷感谢刚才的介绍。我还要感谢导览人员带我们对博物馆进行了一次精彩的参观。白虹,还有我刚刚见过的地区社会科学院副院长杨福泉,以及就在昆明这里的外事办公室主任吕天云。
Before I go any farther I’d like to introduce my wife, Melodee Hanes. I have a very good time when I’m in groups introducing Mel and telling everybody this is my “Tai tai, wo de tai, tai.” Sometimes she says maybe the word should be a little bit more formal. That “tai tai” is a little informal, but I don’t care. She’s my “tai tai.” 在我讲更多之前,我想介绍我的妻子梅乐迪?韩斯。在我当众介绍梅尔,告诉所有人这是我的“太太”,“我的太太”(中文)时,我非常高兴。有时候她说也许这个词应该稍微正式一点。她说“太太”有点不正式。但我不在乎。她是我“太太”。
I wanted to tell you how pleased we are, Mel and I, to be here at Kunming, for many many reasons. One is your wonderful perfect weather. It is truly heaven. When I next see President Xi I’m going to suggest he move the nation’s capital from Beijing to Kunming.
我想告诉你们,梅尔和我,我们来昆明这里有多高兴。原因非常多。一个是你们美极了、好极了的天气。它真的是天堂。我下次见到习主席时,我要建议他把国家的首都从北京搬到昆明。
Now all of you here in Kunming may not like that. With all the subway construction here, which is delaying traffic, you probably don’t want all these presidential motorcades in Kunming blocking traffic even further. So I suspect that you would not be too happy with the nation’s capital moving to Kunming. 或许不是你们在昆明这里的所有人都喜欢这样。由于这里所有的地铁建设正在延误交通,你们大概不希望这么多总统车队在昆明进一步阻塞交通。所以我猜你们不太愿意国家的首都搬到昆明来。
But, thank you so much. It’s so good to be here.
不过,非常感谢。能来这里真好。
This is our first visit, Mel and I. I’m so impressed, as I mentioned. And we like Kunming so much that during lunch today we were comparing notes and asking each other, when can we return? We’re thinking of probably returning sometime this summer.
这是我们—梅尔和我—第一次来访。就像我刚才说的,我印象特别深。我们太喜欢昆明了,以至于今天午餐的时候,我们在交流想法时问彼此,我们什么时候能回来?我们在考虑很可能今年夏天的某个时候回来。
You might ask, why are we here today at the Kunming Museum? The answer is very simple. Let me start with a story about an American pilot named Lieutenant Robert H. Mooney. Lieutenant Mooney, as you all know, it’s a story well known here in Kunming, Lieutenant Mooney made the ultimate sacrifice. He and other Flying Tiger pilots from the United States 14th Air Force were assigned to protect an airfield in Dali from enemy bombers. The airfield was jointly built by U.S. and Chinese workers. In the battle to protect the airfield, Lieutenant Mooney shot down at least two enemy planes before his plane was damaged in a dogfight near the village of Xiangyun. And rather than eject, his plane was very damaged, it was clear the plane was going down. But rather than eject and save himself which would mean that his plane would crash into the village, Lieutenant Mooney did something else. He steered the plane away from Xiangyun as villagers watched below. But by the time he finally ejected, you know the story, it was too late. But by sparing the village, Lieutenant Mooney died of injuries he suffered when he jumped out of his plane but the parachute didn’t open. He therefore as a consequence died. He gave his life for the people of Xiangyun village. 你们可能要问,为什么我们今天会在昆明博物馆这里?答案很简单。让我从一个名叫罗伯特?H?穆尼中尉的美国飞行员的故事说起。大家都知道,穆尼中尉在昆明这里是一个广为人知的故事。穆尼中尉做出了最大的牺牲。他和其他来自美国第14航空大队的飞虎队飞行员被派去保卫一个在大理的飞机场,防御敌人的轰炸机。而那个飞机场是美国和中国工人共同建造的。在保卫那个飞机场的战役中,穆尼中尉的飞机在祥云村附近的一次空中搏斗中受损,而在此之前,他击落了至少两架敌机。而他并没有弹射。他的飞机严重受损,显然,飞机在下坠,但他并没有弹射逃生,那将意味着他的飞机会坠毁在村子里。穆尼中尉做了别的事情。他在下面村民的注视下将飞机驶离祥云。然而到他最终弹射的时候,你们知道这个故事,已经太晚了。但是为避开村子,穆尼中尉因跳出他的飞机时受伤而死。当时他的降落伞没有张开。所以,结果他死了。他将生命献给了祥云村的人民。
After his death the people of Xiangyun, many of you here, dedicated a monument to him at the crash site. To this day many villagers here at Xiangyun tidy up Lieutenant Mooney’s monument each year on Tomb Sweeping Day. Why? To express their gratitude for his sacrifice.
他死后,祥云的人民,你们当中很多人,在坠机地点为他建了一座纪念碑。
到现在,很多在祥云这里的村民每年扫墓节都来清扫穆尼中尉的纪念碑。为什么?为表达他们对他的牺牲的感激。
Lieutenant Mooney was just one of 2,590 American service men and women who died in China during the Second World War. Throughout the war, U.S. combatants in China were touched by the kindness and bravery of their Chinese partners. Brave men and women provided assistance and shelter to thousands of American airmen whose planes were shot down for a cause they shared. In fact over at the museum just an hour or so ago we saw many photographs of Chinese helping give care and assistance to airmen and soldiers who were injured in the war.
穆尼中尉只是第二次世界大战期间死于中国的2590名美国服役的男人和女人们中的一员。整个战争期间,在中国的美国作战人员被他们的中国伙伴的善良和勇敢所打动。勇敢的男人和女人们为数以千计的美国飞行员们提供了帮助和庇护,他们的飞机为了他们共同的事业而被击落。事实上,仅大约一个小时前,在博物馆里,我们看到了许多中国人帮忙给予在战争中受伤的飞行员和士兵们关心和援助的照片。
People from both countries sacrificed greatly. I might say too at lunch today I sat next to Mr. Sun Guansheng who I think is head of the Flying Tigers Association here in Kunming and we shared many stories together. He’s a very perceptive man. I’m deeply impressed with him. And we talked about history, beginning with Sun Yat-Sen and Whampoa the development of the academy that trained soldiers, and Claire Chennault and Stillwell and others who were here. I just want to complement him. He’s quite a wonderful man.
两个国家的人民牺牲都很大。我也可以说,今天午餐时,我坐在孙官生先生旁边,我想他是昆明这儿飞虎队研究会的负责人,我们一起分享了许多故事。他是一个非常有洞察力的人。他给我留下了非常深刻的印象。我们谈到了历史,从孙中山与训练士兵的黄埔军校的发展开始,以及克雷尔陈纳德和史迪威和其他曾在这里的人。我只想称赞他。他是一个了不起的人。
The Second World War has a personal meaning for me and for my wife Mel. We are both children of World War II veterans. My father served in the U.S. Air Force not here, but in Europe. Mel’s father was here in China. He was a United States pilot. He loved to tell stories of the missions that he flew just north of Shanghai. I’ve heard many stories about how proud he was to fight alongside the Chinese during the war. In fact Mel has a piece of silk that he carried with him when he was flying in battle over China. The silk includes a picture of the American flag as well as language in Chinese basically saying, “I’m an American. I’m here flying to help China against the Japanese. And if you find me please help and assist me and give me care.” It was a silk message he carried with him in case he was shot down. 第二次世界大战对我和我的妻子梅尔具有个人意义。我们都是二战老兵们的孩子。我的父亲曾服役于美国空军,不在这里,而是在欧洲。梅尔的父亲曾在中国。他曾是一名美国飞行员。他非常喜欢讲他在上海以北执行飞行任务的故事。我听说过很多关于他是多么自豪在战争期间与中国人并肩作战的故事。事实上梅
