1、英语六级练习题翻译阅读完形填空一、翻译1) The phone is ringing, _(但是没人接听。她一定不在家).2) I cant find my sunglasses. _(我可能昨天落在咖啡店里了). 3) You screamed in your sleep last night. _(你一定梦见什么可怕的东西了).4) Its a pity. _(你本应该邀请她来参加你的毕业典礼的).5) _(其实我没必要穿上我最好的套装去参加那次聚会的); most of the guests were wearing jeans and sweaters.6) We need not o

2、nly be under various external pressures, but also _ （也要面对内心的困惑）.7)Would you _（愿意来参加我们的晚会）on Friday?8) After the operation， _（他的身体很健康）.9) Will you be going back home for the Spring Festival？ _（当然啦）.1) but there is no answer. She cant be at home(考点：情态动词可以表示可能性，cant 表示“一定不”)2) I may have left them in t

3、he coffee shop yesterday(考点：“情态动词can/could, may/might, must + 完成式”用于表示对过去发生的动作的主观判断)3) You must have dreamed of something terrible(考点：同上)4) You should have invited her to your graduation ceremony(考点：“情态动词should/ought to + have done” 用于评论过去应该做而实际并未做的动作，含有批评的意思)5) I neednt have put on my best suit to

4、go to the party(考点：“情态动词neednt + have + done”表示对过去发生的动作进行评论，认为“无须发生”，“不必做”)6) to be in the face of the internal perplexities解析：本句意为：我们不仅要承受种种外界压力，还要面对内心的困惑。这句话考查的是not onlybut also的结构。该结构的前后部分应该保持一致，前半部分用的是not only to，后半部分就应该是but also to。另外，前半句用了under pressure来表达承受压力，后半句最好也用一个介词短语来表达面对困惑之意，与前文相呼应。我们知

5、道，face既可以用作动词也可以用作名词，in the case of意为“面对，面临”。其实全句有三处相对应出现的词或表达，他们是：not only to & but also to；be under & be in the face of；external pressures & internal perplexities。英语里比较注重这种并行结构。7)come to our evening party解析：考查“参加”的表达。Join往往是指参加俱乐部或者协会，如：join a health club；join the Communist Party，或者用join sb表示参加到某人

6、的活动中来。事实上，常常与party搭配的动词是come或者go。如go to a wild party，或come to a Christmas Party。“参加”的另外一些用法有：参加会议（attend the meeting）；参加某项活动（take part in the activity）；参加考试（take/ sit /do the examination）；参加礼拜（attend worship）；参加社会活动（get about social activities）。8) he is in good health/hes healthy解析：本题看似简单，实际在考查汉英表达习

7、惯差异问题。“他的身体很健康”是一句典型的汉语表达，然而英语里表示某人身体好的时候不用“身体”作主语，直接用“某人”作主语。如果译成his body is healthy就可谓多此一举了。“身体健康”还可以用to be in good condition。9)Sure/ Certainly解析：本题也是一道考查汉英表达差异的题。很多考生不假思索地译成Of course。其实，以英语为母语的人使用of course的频率要比中国的考生低得多，只有在回答一些总所周知的问题或表示反语口吻时才说of course。因为of course后面隐含一句话是“当然我知道啦！难道我是一个傻瓜吗？”因此，of

8、course带有挑衅的意味，语气很不友好。在使用方面，sure或certainly语气会婉转很多。同时of course not也具挑衅的意味。正常情况下的说法是certainly not。10)I found a few mistakes解析：few和little意为“几乎没有”，a few和a little意为“还有一些，有几个”。但若在a few和a little加上only，意思就变了。即only a fewfew，而only a littlelittle。如：I can have only a little more.（我几乎不能再吃了。）She made only a few mi

9、stakes.（她几乎全对。）因此，如果译成I found only a few mistakes，意思就恰恰相反，“你的作文我几乎没发现错误”。这道题说明在汉译英时不能完全对应汉字翻译，而要考虑英语使用习惯和词语搭配。二、短文阅读1、 As Sesame Street kicks off its 40th anniversary season Tuesday, with first lady Michelle Obama and Broadway star Lin-Manuel Miranda as guests, it is indisputably the most beloved ch

24、impact on womens lives. Marxists had traditionally believed that both capitalism and the middle-class husbands exploited women. The Russian Revolution of 1917 immediately proclaimed complete equality of rights for women. In the 1920s divorce and abortion were made easily available, and women were ur

25、ged to work outside the home and liberate themselves sexually. After Stalin came to power, sexual and familial liberation was played down, and the most lasting changes for women involved work and education. These changes were truly revolutionary. Young women were constantly told that they had to be

26、equal to men, that they could and should do everything men could do.

With the advent of the five-year-plans, millions of women a

Most of the opportunities open to men through education were also open to women. Determined women pursued their studies and entered the ranks of the better-paid specialists

28、 in industry and science. Medicine practically became a womans profession. By 190, 7 percent of doctors in the Soviet Union were women.
