英译汉：

1 、We all sensed we were coming to the end of our stay here, that we would never get a chance like thisagain, and we became determined not to waste it. Most important of course were the final exams inApril and May in the following year. No one wanted the humiliation of finishing last in class, so thepeer group pressure to work hard was strong. Libraries which were once empty after five o’clock in theafternoon were standing room only until the early hours of the morning, and guys wore the bags undertheir eyes and their pale, sleepy faces with pride, like

medalsproving their diligence. (?and guys worethe bags under their eyes and their pale, sleepy faces with pride … 这句的动词wear 后面带两个宾语，中文找不到能带这两个宾语的动词，故处理成四个中文短句；翻译 like medals proving their diligence时，采用“增词法”增加“这些”来概括前面所描写的“眼袋”，“脸色苍白”，“睡眼惺忪”等，使译文含义更加清晰流畅。)

译文：我们都觉得在校时间不多了，以后再也不会有这样的学习机会了，所以都下定决心不再虚度光阴。当然，下一年四五月份的期末考试最为重要。我们谁都不想考全班倒数第一，那也太丢人了，因此 同学们之间的竞争压力特别大。以前每天下午五点以后，图书馆就空无一人了，现在却要等到天快亮时才会有空座，小伙子们熬夜熬出了

眼袋，他们脸色苍白，睡眼惺忪，却很自豪，好像这些都是表彰他们勤奋好学的奖章。

2、Tomorrow? It’s all a lie; there isn’t a tomorrow. There’s only a promissory note that we are often not ina position to cash. It doesn’t even exist. When you wake up in the morning it’ll be today again and all the same rules will apply. Tomorrow is just another version of now, an empty field that will remain sounless we start planting some seeds. Your time, which is ticking away as we speak (at about 60 secondsa minute chronologically; a bit faster if you don’t invest your time wisely), will be gone and you’llhave nothing to show for it but regret and a rear-view mirror full of “could haves”, “should haves” and“would haves”. (? 本段的难点在于对一些词的理解与翻译，如 an empty field that will remain so,chronologically, invest your time wisely, have nothing to show for it but 等等。“could haves”, “shouldhaves”,“would haves” 是表达与事实相反的条件句，指自己没有做，但有可能或应该做的事情。)

译文：明天行吗？明天只是个谎言；根本就没有什么明天，只有一张我们常常无法兑现的期票。明天甚至压根儿就不存在。你早上醒来时又是另一个今天了，同样的规则又可以全部套用。明天只是现在的 另一种说法，是一块空地，除非我们开始在那里播种，否则它永远都是空地。你的时间会流逝（时间就在我们说话的当下嘀嗒嘀塔地走着，每分钟顺时针走60 秒，如果你不能很好地利用它，它会走得更快些），

而你没有取得任何成就来证明它的存在，唯独留下遗憾，留下一面后视镜，上面写满了“本可以做”、“本应该做”、“本来会做”的事情。

汉译英：

1、对于是否应该在大学期间详细规划自己的未来，学生们意见不一。有的人认为对未来应该有一个明确的目标和详细的计划，为日后可能遇到的挑战做好充分的准备；有的人则认为不用过多考虑未来，因为未来难以预料。(map out; brace oneself for; uncertainty) 译文：Students differ about whether they should have their future mapped out when they are still at university.Some think they should have a definite goal and detailed plan, so as to brace themselves for anychallenges, whereas some others think they don’t have to think much about the future, because future isfull of uncertainties.

2、经过仔细检查，这位科学家得知自己患了绝症。虽然知道自己将不久于人世，他并没有抱怨命运的不公，而是准备好好利用剩下的日子，争取加速推进由他和同事们共同发起的那个研究项目，以提 前结项。(tick away; make the best of; have a shot at) 译文：After a very careful check-up, the scientist was told he had got a fatal disease. Although he knew thathis life was ticking away, instead of complaining about the fate, the scientist decided to make the best ofthe remaining days, and speed up the research project he and his colleagues

initiated, and have a shot atcompleting it ahead of schedule.

Unit2 英译汉：

1、My flying dreams were believable as a landscape by Dali, so real that I would awake with a suddenshock, a breathless sense of having tumbled like Icarus from the sky and caught myself on the softbed just in time. These nightly adventures in space began when Superman started invading mydreams and teaching me how to fly. He used to come roaring by in his shining blue suit with his capewhistling in the wind, looking remarkably like my Uncle Frank who was living with mother andme. In the magic whirling of his cape I could hear the wings of a hundred seagulls, themotors of athousand planes.

译文:我的飞行梦像达利的风景画那么真实可信，以致于自己常常会在一阵惊吓中醒来，好像伊卡罗斯那样从空中摔下来，虽然发现自己刚好掉到软软的床上，但也被吓得喘不过气来。当超人开始侵入我的梦乡，并教给我飞行的技巧之后，我每夜的太空冒险便开始了。超人身着耀眼的蓝色衣服，肩披随风飕飕作响的斗篷，经常从我身边呼啸而过。他长得太像我的舅舅弗兰克了，舅舅那会儿正跟妈妈和我住在一起。当超人的斗篷神奇地旋转时，我好像能听见上百只海鸥的振翅声，上千架飞机的马达轰鸣声。

2、In contrast, children on the Pacific island of Tonga, studied by Helen Morton, are regularly beaten bytheir parents and older siblings. They are

seen as being closer to mad people than adults because theylack the highly prized quality of social competence (or poto as the Tongans call it). They are regularlytold off for being clumsy and a child who falls over may be laughed at, shouted at, or beaten.Children are thought of as mischievous; they cry or want to feed simply because they are naughty, and beatings are at their most severe between the ages of three and five when children are seen asparticularly wilful. Parents believe that social competence can only be achieved through disciplineand

physicalpunishment, and treat their children in ways that have seemed very harsh to outsiders.(? 这段话里有多处被动用法，有些译成中文时仍保留被动态，有些则应该变成主动，否则译文就不通顺。) 译文:相反，根据海伦·莫顿的研究，太平洋岛国汤加的儿童经常挨父母和哥哥姐姐的打。人们认为儿童和成年人相比更像疯子，因为他们缺乏被大家看重的社会能力（汤加人称之为poto）。小孩子经常因为笨手笨脚而挨骂，他们连摔跤都会被嘲笑、呵斥，甚至被打。人们认为儿童很顽皮，都是因为淘气他们才哭闹，或者要东西吃。在大人看来，三至五岁的儿童尤其任性，因此他们打这个年龄段的孩子也打得最狠。父母们相信，只有靠训导和体罚才能使孩子获得社会能力，所以他们用一种在外人看来非常严厉的方式对待孩子。
