46.【參考譯文】發展中國家的人們為移民憂慮時,他們通常擔憂的是離開自己國家去去硅谷或發達國家的醫院和大學的最優秀、最聰明的群體的前景。這些勞動者正是像英國、加拿大、澳大利亞這樣的國家通過賦予受過大學教育者以特權的移民法想要吸引的人群。
很多研究發現,來自發展中國家的那些受到良好教育的人們極有可能選擇移居他國。2004年對印度家庭開展了一項廣泛的調查,結果顯示約40%的移民受過高中以上的教育。相比而言,在所有年齡超過25歲的印度人中,受過高中以上教育的人數比例只有約3.3%。“人才流失”一直困擾著貧窮國家的政策制定者們。他們擔心這會對本國的經濟造成損害,造成國家急需的技工的流失。這些技術人員可能曾在他們的大學教學,也可能曾在他們的醫院工作,或者曾經構想出智能化的新產品讓他們的工廠去生產。
【解析】今年翻譯話題是貧窮國家的人才流失問題,話題內容比較好理解,從而在很大程度上降低了翻譯的難度。但還是有幾個地方有的同學可能會比較困惑。
1)文章第一句的主句需要我們去認真思考下。“they are usually concerned at the prospect of their best and brightest departure to Silicon Valley or to hospitals and universities in the developed world”
這句話中concern at 的賓語是prospect。看到“of”我們要立即想到“A of B”翻譯為“B的A”在這里,A指的就是“prospect”,關鍵就是找出B指代的是什么。而這一點恰恰是本句理解的難點B指的是 “their best and brightest”翻譯為 “他們中最優秀、最聰明的(群體)”。
2) 第一段第二句話關鍵在于對兩個that引導的從句的理解。第一個that從句作定語修飾workers,第二個that作定語修飾rules。這里是考研英語中經常出現的一個考點:從句的嵌套。對于這樣的句子我們的關鍵在于準確找到先行詞,根據一個句子如果有N個連詞就必定有N+1個動詞的原則來切分開長句。
3)“brain drain” 這個詞組是在報刊雜志中經常出現的,意思是“人才流失”。這個詞語通過上下文邏輯應該能大概猜出它的意思,但是在考研考場上,尤其是在完成了閱讀和作文后很多同學可能已經耗費了大量的體力和腦力,對于這個單詞的猜測可能會很費力,甚至會放棄。這個說明我們再平時的學習過程中應該注意積累這樣的熱點詞匯。
4)“They fear that it hurts their economies, depriving them of much-needed skilled workers who”
對于這個句子的理解關鍵在于對于“depriving”之后成分在句子結構中作用的理解。Deprive本意是剝奪,在這里很顯然不適合直譯。我們根據邏輯關系可以翻譯為“技工的流失”。“clever”這個單詞很簡單,同學們都認識,在這里翻譯為“聰明的”很顯然說不通,clever除了“聰明的”還有“精巧”之意,再結合這里說的是技術工人的重要性,我們可以翻譯為“智能的”

【參考范文】
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing this letter to make a complaint about the quality of the electronic dictionary I bought from your store the other day.
The reason for my dissatisfaction is that I found the electronic dictionary can’t reach my satisfaction. In the first place, the outlook is quite different from what it is placed online. In addition, the number of the vocabulary contained in it is too small. I’d like to buy an electronic dictionary with a large vocabulary.
I appreciate it very much if you could change another satisfying one for me. And I would like to have this matter settled by next Friday. Thank you for your consideration and I will be looking forward to your favorable reply.
Yours sincerely,
Zhang Wei
48.大作文
【參考范文】
Here demonstrates a table with regard to the degree of satisfaction on work of staff in a company ranging from three different age groups, under 40, 40 to 50, and above 50 respectively. Specifically speaking, people in their forties are least satisfied with their present work situation at the rate of 64.0%. In comparison, people over 50 are most satisfied with their current situation at 40.0%. A noticeable figure is that half the staff under the age of 40 have no idea about their conditions.
There prove to be a number of reasons accounting for it. First and foremost, it has something to do with the structure of staff’s age, especially with their working and life experience in which they play a pivotal role. What is more, this social issue is likely to be intertwined with the organization of the company where they serve.
In line with my personal thinking, there are two major factors that should be taken into account seriously. On one hand, the general people concerned should enhance their awareness in this respect. What is more, the relevant company should increase the benefits for their employees. Only if these measures are adopted effectively can people work in peace and content and companies benefit most.
