The forum aims to represent the strength of the relationship between our two countries outside the political relationship and looking round today it is clear that the relationship is very strong indeed.

参考译文：

第三项：将下列的短落翻译成英语（30分）。

语言虽然能被转变成诸如书写文字等其他媒介，但主要还是口头上的。如果不能利用口头交流手段，则可使用视觉手段（如手势语）。语言的一个显著特点是语言符号与语言意义之间的关系是任意的。语言可以用来讨论各种广泛的话题，这一特点使语言能够区别于动物之间的交流。

参考答案：

Language is primarily spoken, although it can be transferred to other media, such as writing. If the spoken means of communication is unavailable, as may be the case among the deaf, visual means such as sign language can be used.

A prominent characteristic of language is that the relation between a linguistic sign and its meaning is arbitrary. Language can be used to discuss a wide range of topics, a characteristic that distinguishes it from animal communication.

Homelessness—What can Be Done?

At one time there was a romantic vision of homeless wanderers who lived carefree lives and answered to no one. Home might be a park bench or an empty boxcar on a train heading to some unknown place. They were easy to ignore-people felt they chose the life they wanted. But today homeless people are not easy to ignore. They are everywhere-in large and small cities, all over the world. According to the United Nations, there are over 100 million homeless people worldwide. Where are they living? In places like abandoned buildings, shelters, bus and train stations, subways, and city streets. Large cities such as New York, London, and Bombay can barely cope with the large numbers of people living on the streets.

有一段时间人们对无家可归的流浪者们的想象是很浪漫的，即他们过着无忧无虑的生活，不用向任何人负责。家对他们可能意味着公园里的一条长凳，或者一列开往不知何方的火车上的一节空车厢。人们很容易忽略他们的存在—人们觉得他们选择了自己想过的生活。

How safe is your home?

Falls are the number one cause of accidental deaths in the home every year and the main reason for accidental deaths of the elderly. They are mostly due to slippery surfaces or loose rugs. Fires, often caused by cigarette smoking, are more dangerous for the smoke and poisonous gases they create than for the actual flames. Electrical hazards, responsible for many home fires, are frequently caused by overloaded wires and fixtures. Burns happen most often to children and the elderly, usually in the bathroom, when the water is too hot. The leading cause of accidental deaths at home for people between the ages of 14 and 44 is poisoning, often the result of the misuse of medicines.

How to Reduce Stress and Be Happy on the Job

By Gary Dessler

QUESTION:

Have you any quick simple suggestions for how I can reduce the stress I’m under at work? I’m a manager in a large bank, and between company politics, customers who don’t pay back their loans, and my heavy workload, I find myself under what seems to be unrelenting stress and pressure at work. The stress is beginning to affect my work and family life, and any suggestions would be appreciated.

ANSWER:

Suggestions range from “get more sleep” to “use meditation.” But in a recent book, stress and the manager, Dr. Karl Albrecht suggests the following to reduce stress on the job:

l Build rewarding, pleasant, cooperative relationships with as many of your colleagues and employees as you can.

2 Don’t bite off more than you can chew. Take on only those assignments that you know you h ave time for.

3 Build an especially effective and supportive relationship with your boss. Understand his or her problems and help the boss understand yours.

参考答案：如何减轻压力，保持心情愉快

问题：您与什么既简单又见效快的建议来减轻我在工作中遇到的压力吗？我是某家大银行的一名经理。处在公司的各项政策、不还贷款的客户和我自己繁重的工作量之间，我发现自己在工作中承受的压力似乎是无法减轻的。这种压力开始影响到我的工作以及我的家庭生活，您的任何建议我都会十分感激。

回答：（类似的）建议有很多，从“多睡觉”一直“沉思冥想”。但是在最近的一部新书《压力与经理》中，Karl albrecht博士对于减轻工作压力有如下建议：

l 尽可能与更多的同事和员工建立有益愉快的合作关系。

2 不要贪多嚼不烂。只承担那些你知道你有时间做的工作。和你的上司建立一种效率特别高而又相互支持的关系。理解他/她的问题所在，也帮助她他理解你的问题所在。

3 在重要项目上与你的上司进行协商，制定出切实可行的最后期限。准备好自己提出最后期限，而不是让上司强加给你。

第二项：将下列段落翻译成英语（30分）。

UFOs: Fact or Fiction?

The existence of UFOs (unidentified Flying Objects) is a source of controversy that often divides people into two separate groups: those who believe that UFOs are the spaceships of intelligent beings from other planets, and those who disagree and believe these sightings have some other explanation. Those in the second group say these sightings could be due to the effects of a distant planet, a weather disturbance, or airplane lights, for example. Another possible explanation is that the people who report the sightings could be imagining what they saw or making up stories to get attention.

参考译文：飞碟：是真实的还是虚构的？

你听说过飞碟（不明飞行物）吗？你认为飞碟是来自其他星球的宇宙飞船吗？或者另有解释。

飞碟的存在与否历来是颇有争议的，通常可以把持不同观点的人分为两个阵营：一些人认为飞碟是来自其他星球智慧生物的宇宙飞船，另外一些人不同意这种说法，认为这些目击物的出现另有解释。这第二组认为这些目击物可能是，比如说：受某个遥远的星体的影响，受天气干扰或者是飞机上的灯的影响而形成的。还有一个可能的解释是那些报告看到的这些东西的人也许是在凭空想象，或者是在编造故事以引人注意。第三项将下列段落翻译成段落（30分）。

在经济全球化条件下，大家的命运已经联系在一起，谁也离不开谁。金融危机检验着国际社会加强合作的诚意和水平，考验着我们的智慧。只有加强合作，携手努力，同舟共济，才能有效应对危机。承担责任是战胜危机不可或缺的重要基础。各国政府坚定、勇敢、负责地承担起责任，对于稳定金融秩序、防止危机对实体经济影响加深，十分重要。政治家要有远见卓识，既要对自己的国家和人民负责，也要对国际社会负责。

In a world of economic globalization, countries are tied together in their destinies and can hardly be separated from one another. The financial crisis is a test of the readiness of the international community to enhance cooperation, and a test of our wisdom. Only with closer cooperation and mutual help, can we successfully manage the crisis. To prevail over the crisis, accepting responsibilities is the prerequisite. When governments fulfill their responsibilities with resolution and courage, they can help maintain a stable financial order and prevent the crisis from causing more serious damage on the real economy. Political leaders must be forward-looking. They should be responsible to the entire international community as well as to their own countries and people.
