大学英语教材第三册课文翻译课文一: A Trip to the Great Wall在中国,有着一座古老而宏伟的建筑——长城。
长城是中国的象征之一,也是世界七大奇迹之一。
它拥有悠久的历史和壮丽的景色,吸引着来自世界各地的游客。
上周末,我和朋友们决定去长城进行一次难忘的旅行。
我们一早就出发了,沿着崎岖的山路一路向北。
当我们终于抵达长城时,我们都不禁为其宏伟的景色所震撼。
我们开始攀登长城,这是一项相当艰巨的任务。
长墙蜿蜒曲折,不时出现一些陡峭的台阶,但我们并没有退缩。
我们带着激动和好奇的心情,继续向前。
沿途,我们看到了长城上的瞭望塔,这些塔楼被广泛用于观察和防御,让我们感受到了古代中国的军事智慧。
我们还看到了一些标志性的景点,比如“不朽长城”和“万里长城碑”,这些都是长城的代表性建筑。
不仅如此,我们还欣赏到了长城两侧壮丽的自然风景。
长城建在山脊上,四周被茂密的树林环绕。
站在长城上,我们可以眺望远处的蓝天和连绵起伏的山脉,这让我们感到无比宁静和恢弘。
在攀登了几个小时后,我们终于到达了长城的终点。
我们感到骄傲和满足,因为我们成功地征服了这段历史悠久的建筑。
我们留下了许多美好的回忆,也体会到了团队合作和坚持不懈的重要性。
这次长城之行让我对中国的历史和文化有了更深刻的了解。
我深深地爱上了这座建筑壮丽、历史悠久的长城,希望将来还能有机会再次回到这里,品味更多的美景和传奇。
课文二:A Journey to the Forbidden City在中国的北京市中心,有着一座宏伟而神秘的建筑群——故宫。
故宫是中国古代帝王的居所,也是世界上最大的宫殿建筑群。
这个神秘的地方一直吸引着游客们的目光。
最近,我有幸参观了这个古老而庄严的故宫。
一进入故宫,我就被其庞大而精美的建筑群所震撼。
我感受到了中国古代帝王的威严与尊贵,也感受到了中国传统文化的博大精深。
在参观过程中,我了解到故宫共有九千九百九十九间房屋。
每一间房屋都有特定用途,比如供奉神明的殿堂、行政办公的厅堂以及皇帝和妃嫔们居住的宫殿。

大学口译教程课文翻译4单元The Economic Impact of September 11thClearly, september 11th was an act of brutality that left the world first in shock, then in anger, an act of sudden violence that without warning stole a parent from 10,000 children and that shattered the illusion that we in North America are somehow insulated from external attack.显然,9月11日的暴行使整个世界为之震惊,继而愤怒。
这次突发暴力事件毫无预兆的夺走了一万个孩子的父母,我们原以为北美洲远离外界的袭击,但此次事件打破了这种幻觉。
In response, we have borne witness to an uncompromising resolve that more than matches the initial shock. The world has come together in an uncommon and irrevocable commitment to eliminate the threat of terrorism. The physical assault levelled against us is being met by an international coalition of nations, faiths and force that will not fail.我们已经证明,不妥协的决心是对这次袭击的最佳回应。
全世界人民同仇敌忾,誓在消灭恐怖主义的威胁。
全世界的各个国家,宗教和武装联合起来共同对抗恐怖袭击的行动一定会取得胜利。
Unit 1 Personality羞怯的痛苦对许多人来说,羞怯是很多不愉快的起因。
各种各样的人——矮的、高的、愚笨的、聪明的、年轻的、年老的、瘦的、胖的——都说自己是羞怯的。
羞怯的人会焦虑不安,感到不自然;也就是说,他们过分地关注自己的外表和举止。
脑海中不断盘旋着一些使自己不安的想法:我给人留下的是什么印象?他们喜欢我吗?我讲话是不是傻里傻气?我长得难看。
我穿的衣服毫不引人注目。
很显然这种不安的感觉会对人产生不利的影响。
一个人的自我看法反映在自己的行为方式之中,而一个人的行为方式又影响他人的反应。
通常,人们如何看待自己对他们生活的各个方面都会产生深刻的影响。
例如,具有积极的自我价值观或很强自尊心的人往往表现出自信。
而由于自信,他们不需要他人不断地称赞和鼓励,也能使自己感觉良好。
自信者热情、自发地投入生活。
他们不因别人认为他们“该”做什么而受到影响。
有很强自尊心的人不会被批评所伤害;他们不会把批评看作是人身攻击。
相反,他们认为批评是一种提醒他们改进的建议。
相比之下,羞怯的人自尊心较弱,往往消极被动并且容易受他人影响。
他们(是否)在做“该做的事情”需要得到别人的肯定。
害羞的人对批评非常敏感;他们觉得批评正好证实了他们比别人差。
他们也很难因别人的赞美而高兴,因为他们相信自己不值得称赞。
羞怯的人也许会用这样的话来回答别人的赞美之辞:“你这么说只是为了让我感觉好一些。
我知道这不是真的。
”显然,尽管自我意识是一种健康的品质,过分的自我意识却是不利和有害的。
能否彻底消除或者至少减轻羞怯感呢?幸运的是,人们能够通过坚持不懈的努力建立自信从而克服羞怯。
由于胆怯和缺少自尊是密切相关的,因此正视自己的弱点和正视自己的优点一样重要。
例如,大多数人希望每门功课都得A。
如果仅仅因为在某些领域有困难,就把自己列为差生,这不恰如其分。
人们对自己的期望必须现实。
老是想那些不可能的事情会令自己觉得无能,甚至产生嫉妒。
当我们嫉妒比自己成绩好的学生时,我们正在自我否定。
DialogueA: 莉莉,你好!我听说你被选为2008 年奥运会志愿者,祝贺你!我刚来北京,对于中国即将举行的奥运会也非常感兴趣,你能不能简单地告诉我一些关于北京奥运会的基本信息呢?B: Thank you, Jay, of course I can tell you something. As a volunteer, I have the responsibility to promote the Beijing Olympic Games. What would you like to know? A: 太好了!我想知道的东西太多了。
比如说,北京奥运会的口号、吉祥物和理念,还有志愿者工作,中国不同的奥运场馆和奥运城市。
对这些我都很感兴趣。
B: Oh, no problem, I will explain to you one by one. First, let’s talk about the slogan of the Beijing Games. That is “One World, One Dream.” This slogan reflects the essence of the universal values of the Olympic spirit. In spite of our differences, we come together for the Olympic Games. This slogan was chosen from thousands of proposals submitted by people across China and around the world.A: 成千上万条提议,数量可真不少!B: “One World, One Dream” is simple in expression, but profound in meaning. It conveys the lofty ideal of the people in Beijing, as well as in China, i.e., the Chinese people and the world people share the same globe and will create a bright future hand in hand. It also voices the aspiration of the Chinese people to contribute to the establishment of a peaceful and beautiful world.A:我明白了,它的意义确实很深远。
Lesson 33.3 Steve Forbes on Forbes我祖父二十世纪初来到美国,他离开苏格兰时身上没有什么钱。
连他在内有兄弟姐妹10人,不过他自小受到很好的教育。
像许多人一样,他也是满怀憧憬和理想来到美国的。
** 他创办了《福布斯》杂志,报道那些实干家,那些给商业社会带来变革的人。
我祖父常说,做生意不是为了堆积百万财富,而是为了带来幸福快乐。
如今我们讲到公司和经营,文章中会用到许多数字,但是焦点一直放在人上面。
**对公司而言,最重要的是人,而不是资产负债表。
以前我祖父是这样看的,我们现在也这样看。
** 当前世界信息泛滥,足以将人淹么其中,人们迫切需要一本刊物来解读这些信息,告诉读者哪些重要哪些可以不必理会。
这就是《福布斯》的价值所在。
我们提供额外的视角和判断。
我们从不停留于表面,总想看看公司到底如何经营的,正是当今芜杂繁多的信息使得《福布斯》日益重要。

大学英语3课文翻译University English 3 Lesson TranslationThe text I have chosen for translation is titled "The Benefits of Physical Exercise". It discusses the numerous advantages of engaging in regular physical exercise.Physical exercise brings great benefits to our bodies and minds. To begin with, engaging in physical activities regularly helps to maintain a healthy body weight. It helps burn calories and fat, which can prevent obesity and related health problems. Moreover, exercise strengthens our muscles and joints, increasing our overall physical strength and flexibility.Regular exercise also plays a crucial role in maintaining a healthy heart. When we engage in physical activities, our heart rate increases, and this strengthens the heart muscles. Strengthening the heart muscles prevents cardiovascular diseases and reduces the risk of high blood pressure.In addition, physical exercise has numerous mental benefits. First and foremost, exercise is known to improve our mood. When we engage in physical activities, our body releases endorphins, which are known as "feel-good" chemicals. These chemicals help reduce stress and anxiety, and they boost our mental well-being. Furthermore, regular exercise can also improve our cognitive functions. Studies have shown that physical activity improves memory, concentration, and overall brain function.Exercise is also beneficial for our immune system. Engaging inphysical activities boosts the production of white blood cells, which are vital for fighting off infections and diseases. Regular exercise also stimulates the release of toxins through sweat, which helps detoxify our bodies and strengthen our immune system.Lastly, physical exercise promotes better sleep. When we engage in regular physical activities, we tire out our bodies, making it easier for us to fall asleep and achieve a deeper sleep. This helps us feel more rested and rejuvenated in the morning.In conclusion, physical exercise brings numerous advantages to our bodies and minds. It helps maintain a healthy body weight, strengthens our muscles and joints, and plays a crucial role in maintaining a healthy heart. Additionally, exercise improves our mood, cognitive functions, immune system, and sleep quality. Therefore, it is important to incorporate regular physical activities into our daily routines for a healthy and fulfilling life.。
Lesson 1111.3 倾销与反倾销如一公司以低于其国内市场正常水平的价格出口产品,则被视为“倾销”。
这是不公平竞争吗?意见各不相同。
但许多国家政府针对倾销采取措施,以保护其国内产品。
《WTO协议》对此未作判断,而将重点放在了各国政府能够或者不能够对倾销做出反应上,为反倾销措施制定规则。
这一协议通常被称为《反倾销协议》。
//典型的反倾销方法是对来自特定的出口国的特定产品征收额外进口关税,以便使其价格接近“正常价值”,或消除对进口国国内产业造成的损害。
一般来说,美国、欧盟、澳大利亚和加拿大一直是反倾销措施的主要采取国。
在WTO的档案中,记录了这四个国家采取反倾销措施的案例占全部案例的45%。
//为什么发展中国家容易成为反倾销的对象呢?首先是,出口型经济容易导致贸易纠纷。
因为积极参与出口是凡占国内经济的捷径,许多发展中国家实行了出口型的政策。
结果,他们的经济比发达国家更依赖外贸,这样,在发展中国家和发达国家间出现许多摩擦就没有什么奇怪了。
//其次,从发展中国家出口的产品价格十分低廉。
因为他们的劳力比起发达国家便宜许多,生产成本低是显而易见的。
况且,发展中国家的产品通常设计比较不精美、不完善、这也会影响到价格。
相比之下,在发达国家的劳动密集型工业都是暮年产业,比起知识型产业他们很没有竞争力。
他们的产品价格在他们国内高得出奇,这个因素很容易引起国内产业和管理部门的注意。
//11.4 ABC of the WTOA: With the development of globalization, international economic organizations are playing an increasingly important role. What are the major economic organizations in the world today? Could you please tell me briefly about them, not only about their common characteristics in international trade practice, but also their particular features?B: 三个主要的国际经济组织是世界银行、国际货币基金组织和世界贸易组织。

大学英语第3册课文翻译篇1The Expensive Fantasy of Lord WilliamsTomintoul, Scotland —On Saturday night at The Grouse's Nest, they're still willing to raise a glass or two to “Lord Williams” though now his title prompts laughter. And now they just call him “Tony”.There are those in this beautiful village in the mountains of Scotland (population, 320) who say they were never quite sureabout Anthony Williams, the soft-spoken, wealthy noble who arrived in 1986 with his well-dressed wife.And there are others who say their suspicions were aroused over time, as the 55-year-old Mr. Williams, who appeared onweekends turned out in fine suits, bought up property after property, providing such a large injection of cash into the villagethat he single-handedly brought the community back to life.But no one could have possibly guessed the truth — that the man with endless money and a friendly manner was not a lordat all but a government employee living out a fantasy that he was a Scottish noble and paying for it by stealing funds fromScotland Yard.About two weeks ago, a regretful Mr. Williams, who had worked for the London police since 1959 and had risen to a £65,000 a year position as deputy director of finance, was brought into court and sentenced to seven and a half yearsinprison.Estimates are that he poured nearly £5 million of the stolen money into the village and gave jobs to 43 people. And nowthat he has fallen upon dark days at least some villagers are sticking by him.“I found him a very charming man, very friendly, considerate —not at all proud,” said Georgie McAllister, 70, themanager of the local museum whose family has been farming the surrounding hills for generations. “It's hard to understandhow a clever person like him could mislead people like that. It's sad. Of course, it did benefit the village. A lot of the propertieswere beautifully restored.”A few doors down the square, barber Donald Corr sat inside his shop and described how suspicions began to grow. “Everyonewondered where the money was coming from. Why was he spending it in a little place in the mountains? Christ, he wouldn'thave gotten it back in 100 ye ars.”According to the court, Mr. Williams stole more than £8 million over eight years. Most of it came from a secret fund thathad been placed under his sole authority and that was supposed to be used to pay spies and conduct secret activities againstthe Irish Republican Army.Instead, it went to create one more British lord.Mr. Williams bought an estate with a fine brick house in England. He bought a beautiful home with white walls and a poolin Spain. He bought noble titles at auctions, spending £95,000 to become the Lord of Chirnside, and then adding on 10 moreScottish titles.But most of all, he sunk his dishonest gains into this village that captured his heart with its fine stone cottages, its centralareaof green grass, green rows of hedges, and its fantastic view of rolling fields and pine forests disappearing into the distancelike the men of an ancient army marching over the horizon.He bought multiple cottages and fixed them up. He purchased the pub and made it into a fine place to have a glass ofGlenlivet Scotch whiskey, produced only 10 miles (16 kilometers) to the north. And most of all, he bought the run-downGordon Arms Hotel and totally restored it, transforming it from a mess into a glorious first-class hotel with 30 handsomelyfurnished rooms, wood-paneled stairs, false bookshelves with fake leather books and an outstanding restaurant.“I would offer him three choices of glasses for the restaurant: an average one, a poor one, and fine crystal. Always, he chosethe crystal. Nothing but the bes t,” said David Abdy, who was chosen by Mr. Williams to manage the construction work andrun the businesses.Mr. Williams deceived everyone, including Mr. Abdy and including even his own wife, telling them that he inherited themoney from a rich uncle. He was caught because his bank deposits were so large that they were noticed by the bank'smanagement. The bank notified the police, who discovered, to their terrible embarrassment, that the criminal was one oftheir own.The London police commissioner publicly apologized for poorly supervising his department. Under a hastily madearrangement, the police will sell the properties, but at a substantial financial loss. Mr. Abdy, a 27-year-old businessman,acquired the bulk of the properties for about half a million pounds, obtaining bank loans and striking deals withvarious peopleto pay only a part of what they are owed by Mr. Williams.In the only interview he has given since his arrest a year ago, Mr. Williams discussed his motives for the crime with aLondon newspaper: “I discovered this bloody huge amount of money. I went from the need to pay off a few debts to what canonly be described as greed. There is no way to justify it.”翻译我哥哥吉米出生时遇上难产,因为缺氧导致大脑受损。
全新版大学英语3课文背诵段落部分及翻译第一篇:全新版大学英语3课文背诵段落部分及翻译Unit 1I suspect not everyone who loves the country would be happy living the way we do. It takes a couple of special qualities. One is a tolerance for solitude. Because we are so busy and on such a tight budget, we don't entertain much. During the growing season there is no time for socializing anyway. Jim and Emily are involved in school activities, but they too spend most of their time at home.我想,不是所有热爱乡村的人都会乐意过我们这种生活的。
这种生活需要一些特殊的素质。
其一是耐得住寂寞。
由于我们如此忙碌,手头又紧,我们很少请客。
在作物生长季节,根本就没工夫参加社交活动。
吉米和埃米莉虽然参加学校的各种活动,但他俩大多数时间也呆在家里。
The other requirement is energy -- a lot of it. The way to make self-sufficiency work on a small scale is to resist the temptation to buy a tractor and other expensive laborsaving devices.

新视野大学英语第三版第三册课文翻译Unit 1 The Way to Success课文ANever, ever give up!永不言弃!As a young boy, Britain's great Prime Minister, Sir Winston Churchill, attended a public school called Harrow. He was not a good student, and had he not been from a famous family, he probably would have been removed from the school for deviating from the rules. Thankfully, he did finish at Harrow and his errors there did not preclude him from going on to the university. He eventually had a premier army career whereby he was later elected prime minister. He achieved fame for his wit, wisdom, civic duty, and abundant courage in his refusal to surrender during the miserable dark days of World War II. His amazing determination helped motivate his entire nation and was an inspiration worldwide.英国的伟大首相温斯顿·丘吉尔爵士,小时候在哈罗公学上学。
当时他可不是个好学生,要不是出身名门,他可能早就因为违反纪律被开除了。

Dating back about 3,000 years ago, It represents that people pass the old year peacefully and prepare for big celebration to welcome the new year.除夕夜的团圆饭是整个年头里最具意义的一餐。

The reunion dinner shows the importance of family in the culture of Chinese people, which can strengthen the sense of togetherness of family.人们庆祝新年的方式,体现了两个重要的核心价值观。
首先,多代同堂的家庭成员,齐聚家中享受一顿丰盛的团圆饭,是每个人都会遵守的习惯。

The way people celebrate the New Year embodies two important core values. The first value is the sense of family togetherness; members of multi-generation families are allthere to have a big reunion dinner. Everyone will follow this custom. The female members are always responsible for preparing the dinner, and some rich families may take on extra hands .The second value lies in the happy visits mutually made between friends and relatives, a good way to strengthen kinship and friendship.忙碌了一年,人们不愿在过年时还亲朋好友之间也不再登门拜访,代之以电话、短信拜年。
