2016-Text1

第 2 段:①Such measures have a couple of uplifting motives. ②They suggest beauty should not be defined by looks that end up impinging on health. ③That’s a start. ④And the ban on ultra-thin models seems to go beyond protecting models from starving themselves to death—as some have done. ⑤It tells the fashion industry that it must take responsibility for the signal it sends women, especially teenage girls, about the social tape-measure they must use to determine their individual worth.

②名词 1 名词 2 谓语动词,当两组名词读起来或者翻译起来语义不连贯的时候,第二个名词开始为定语从句部分,前面省略了 that(定语从句中如果连接词在从句中充当宾语成分,可省略连接词),表示“ 的”;

l industry,有“工厂”和“行业”的意思,考研中经常考它作为“行业”的意思,这里为“行业”;

l take responsibility for,对 负责;

l tape-measure,字面意思为“卷尺”,这里引申为“标尺”;

2016-Text2

第 3 段 : ①At the next election none of the big parties seem likely to endorse this sentiment. ②The Conservatives’ planning reform explicitly gives rural development priority over conservation, even authorizing “off–plan” building where local people might object...

话题:英国乡村亟待政治力量保护

二、解析

1. 分意群:

The Conservatives’ planning reform / explicitly gives rural development priority / over conservation, / even authorizing “off–plan” building // where local people might object.

保守党的计划改革 / 明确地给乡村发展优先权 / 高于保护,/ 甚至批准“计划外” 建筑 / 当地居民可能反对的。

2. 定属性、调语序:

①where 从句,可以跟在地点名词后作状语从句,也可以跟在名词后面作定语从句, 作状语从句表示“在......的地方”,作定语从句表示“在 的”;

...authorizing “off–plan” building where local people might object,

状语从句的话译为:甚至批准在当地居民可能反对的地方进行“计划外建设”......

定语从句的话译为:甚至批准当地居民可能反对的“计划外建设”......

这里根据上文,可以知道“计划外建设”的地点会被当地居民反对,而不是建筑本身,所以这里可以判定为状语从句;

其实该句可以改成定语从句形式:authorizing “off–plan” building in the place where local people might object。

难点:reform;over

l reform,改革,可以充当动词,也可以充当名词,一个句子(没有连词的情况下)只能有一个谓语动词,在句子 The Conservatives’ planning reform explicitly gives rural development priority over conservation 中 gives 只能充当动词,无名词形式,再结合语义,reform 作名词更合适;

l over 作介词的时候,可表示“在…上面; 悬在…上面; 向…上方; 从一边到另一边; 穿越” 的意思, 这里表示“ 高于” ; gives rural development priority over conservation,给乡村发展的优先权高于保护。

三、理解

The Conservatives’ planning reform explicitly gives rural development priority over conservation, even authorizing “off–plan” building where local people might object.

全句翻译:保守党的规划改革明确将优先权给与了乡村开发而非自然保护,甚至批准在当地居民可以反对的地方进行“计划外”建设。

二、解析

1. 分意群:

But even if you accept Friedman’s premise // and regard corporate social responsibility (CSR) policies / as a waste / of shareholders’ money, // things may not be absolutely clear-cut.

但是即使你接受弗里德曼的前提 // 并将企业社会责任(CRS)政策视作 / 是一种浪费 / 股东的钱,/ 事情可能不是绝对清楚地切。

2. 定属性、调语序:

①even if,让步状语从句的引导词,表示“即使 ”;

...even if you accept Friedman’s premise...,......即使你接受弗里德曼的前提 ;

②and 并列成分,可从词性判断,and 后面跟 regard 是动词,所以跟前面的的动词

accept 并列;

...and regard corporate social responsibility (CSR) policies ,

......并且将企业社会责任(CRS)政策视作......

难点:regard ... as;shareholder;clear-cut

l regard ... as,视为;

l share,大家都知道它有“分享”的意思,在考研中,还经常用作另一个意思“股票”,shareholder,“拿着股票的人”,即“股东”;

l clear-cut,一分为二的、界限分明的。

2. 定属性、调语序:

①one that 从句,that 从句为定语从句,表示“ 的”,one 为指代;

one that upsets the old assumption,推翻旧的假定的这一裁决;

②抽象名词 that 从句,且从句部分主谓宾完整的情况下,that 从句为同位语从句,而非定语从句,从句部分在具体解释说明该抽象名词,翻译时跟定语从句差别不大,可翻译为“ 的”,或接“:”,将 that 从句放于冒号后;

the old assumption that authorities may search,当局可以搜查 的这一旧假定。

3. 理翻译:

难点:ask... to ;refrain from;one;at the time of their arrest

l refrain from,抑制,控制,不要做;

l one,可以理解为“某个东西,某件事情”,这里是指代前面的 ruling;

l their arrest,字面意思为“他们的逮捕”,即“逮捕他们”;at the time of their arrest, 逮捕他们的时候。

三、理解

California has asked the justices to refrain from a sweeping ruling, particularly one that upsets the old assumption that authorities may search through the possessions of suspects at the time of their arrest.

全句翻译:加利福尼亚州已请求法官们不要作出一概而论的裁决,尤其是推翻当局

“在逮捕时可搜查嫌疑犯财务”这一旧假定的裁决。

第 4 段:①They should start by discarding California’s lame argument that exploring the contents of a smartphone—a vast storehouse of digital information—is similar to, say, going through a suspect’s purse. ②The court has ruled that police don’t violate the Fourth Amendment when they go through the wallet or pocketbook of an arrestee without a warrant. ③But exploring one’s smartphone is more like entering his or her home. ④A smartphone may contain an arrestee’s reading history, financial history, medical history and comprehensive records of recent correspondence. ⑤The development of “cloud computing,” meanwhile, has made that exploration so much the easier.
