【2】本题考查比较级,“比平时”翻译为 “than usual”.
【3】本题考查强调句、定语从句和非谓语的翻译。首先强调句结构 “it is(was)…that/who” ;那个轻生的男子,需要处理为定语从句,翻译为 “the man who tried to kill himself/ commit suicide”; 不顾 “without considering”.
【4】倒装句和定语从句的翻译。一…就 “No sooner had sb.done sth.than sb.did sth.”; 多年不见的小学同学可以处理成定语从句,翻译为 “(whom) I hadn’t seen for ages/years.”;
【5】本题考查主语从句和同位语的翻译,句子结构比较复杂。首先“无论谁想要成功”用主语从句 “Whoever wants to be successful”。其次,“这个道理“成功来自艰苦的付出和坚持不懈”这半句话涉及使用同位语从句。理清关系后,本句也并没有想象中那么复杂。

There was once a elderly woman in a nursing home. She wouldn’t speak to anyone and request anything. She only existed, rocked in her creaky old rocking chair. The old woman didn’t have any visitors. But every morning, a concerned and wise young nurse will go into her room. She didn’t try to speak or ask question of the old lady. She simple pulled up another rocking chair beside the old woman and was rocked with her. Several weeks late, the old woman finally spoke. “Thank you,” he said. “Thank you for rocking me.”

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
If you go to Ethiopia,you’ll find a strange palm-like structure,which is called Warka Water.It gathers water from fog and condensation(水珠)and is invented by an Italian firm.
When Italian designer Arturo Vittori and Swiss architect Andreas Vogler first visited Ethiopia in 2012,they were shocked to see women and children forced to walk miles to access what,for them,had always been within easy reach,water.
Only 34 percent of Ethiopians have access to a reliable water supply.Some travel for up to six hours a day to fetch some or,even worse,have to use pond water polluted by human waste,subject to the spread of disease.
Worldwide,about 768 million people—two and a half times the U.S.population—don’t have access to safe drinking water.So just imagine if we could just pull water out of thin air?That’s what Vittori and Vogler asked once they saw the severe problem and promised to take action.Their firm,Architecture and Vision,has since come up with Warka Water,a grand palm-like structure that may look like something you’d see in a modern art museum,but it’s been designed to harvest water from the air.
Warka Water,which is named after an Ethiopian fig tree,is composed of a 30-foot bamboo frame containing a fog-harvesting nylon net that can catch water easily,can be easily lowered for repairs and allow communities to measure the water level.Collecting water through condensation is hardly a new technique,but the creators of Warka Water say their tree-inspired design is more effective,maximizing surface and perfecting every angle to produce up to 26 gallons of drinkable water a day—enough for a family of seven.
Western organizations have been working to provide clean water access in Africa for decades,so Warka Water joins a very long list of earlier attempts.So far,high-tech solutions,like the once promising Playpump,have failed,mostly due to high costs and maintenance issues.
This is where Warka Water stands apart—a lower-tech solution that is easy to repair and far more affordable than digging wells in the rocky Ethiopian plateau.
【1】What does the underlined phrase “subject to” in the third paragraph most probably mean?
A.owing to B.opposite to
C.sensitive to D.giving rise to
【2】Warka Water is designed mainly to .
A.gather clean water efficiently
B.reduce water supply costs
C.simplify maintenance
D.preserve water supplies
【3】According to the sixth paragraph,what caused Playpump to fail?
A.Lack of advanced technology
B.Unsuccessful designs
C.Lack of money and maintenance issues
D.Unreasonable structures

【题目】The Taj Mahal (泰姬陵) is a love story, a sad and beautiful one. If it didn’t exist, we would easily imagine that the story of its construction was simply a fairy tale. Three hundred years ago, there lived an Indian emperor called Shah Jahan. His wife was a beautiful and bright woman whom he loved greatly. Her title was Mumtazl Mahan: its shortened form Taj Mahal, means “pride of the palace”. In the year 1630 this beloved wife of the emperor died. He was so brokenhearted that he thought of giving up his throne(皇位). Out of his love for his wife, he decided to build her the most beautiful tomb that had ever been seen.
He summoned(召集)the best artists and architects from India, Turkey, Persia and Arabia and finally, the design was complete. It took more than twenty thousand men working over a period of 18 years to build the Taj Mahal, one of the most beautiful buildings in the world.
The building itself stands on a marble platform 29 meters square and 6-7 meters high. Towers rise from each of the four corners. The Taj itself soars another 61 meters into the air. It is an eight-sided building made of white marble.
The emperor planned to build an identical tomb of black marble for himself on the other side of the river connected by a silver bridge. However his son put him into a prison in the palace before he could finish, and for the rest of his life, he could only gaze across river at the tomb of his beloved wife.

【题目】As people have accurately observed,smiles are absent from early photographs. In 1852,for instance,a girl sat for her Daguerrotype,her head slightly turned,giving the camera an unsmiling look. She is preserved forever as a very serious girl indeed. Charles Darwin,a loving and playful parent,looks frozen in photographs. Why did our ancestors,from unknown sitters for family portraits(肖像画) to the great and famous,because so sad in front of the camera?
The severity is everywhere in Victorian photographs. However,you don’t have to look very long at these unsmiling old photos to see how incomplete the seemingly obvious answer is-that they are freezing their faces in order to keep still for the long exposure times. In Julia Margaret Cameron’s Portrait of Tennyson,the poet dreams,his face a shadowed mask of genius. This is not simply a technique. It’s an emotional choice.
People in the past did not go around in a continual state of sorrow. In fact,the Victorians had a sense of humor even about the darkest aspects of their society. Laughter was not just common in the past but accepted by society far more than it is today,from medieval carnivals(中世纪狂欢节) to Georgian print shops,where people gathered to look at the latest funnies. Far from preventing festivals and fun,the Victorians,who invented photography,also created Christmas as a celebration as it is today. So the severity of people in the 19th-century photographs cannot be the evidence of generalized sadness. This was not a society in permanent desperation. Instead,the true answer has to do with attitudes to portraiture itself.
People who sat for early photographs understood it as a significant moment. Sitting for the camera was cheaper,quicker and meant that people who never had a chance to be painted could now be photographed; but people seemed to have taken it seriously in the same way they would be a painted portrait. Like a portrait painting,it was intended as a timeless record of a person.
To me those unsmiling people probably had as much fun as we do,if not more. But they felt no need to prove it with pictures. Instead,when whey sat for a photograph,they thought about time,death and memory. Perhaps we should stop smiling sometimes,too.
【1】What do we know about the people in Victorian times?
A. They laid importance on religious events.
B. They were skillful at portrait painting.
C. They valued their family life.
D. They enjoyed themselves.
【2】The author mentions Portrait of Tennyson in Paragraph 2 to__________.
A. prove a theory
B. support his opinion
C. introduce a painting
D. describe a technique
【3】The author thinks early people look frozen in old photos because____.
A. they lived in a traditional society
B. they had to stay still for a long time
C. they regarded photography important
D. they held negative views about painting
【4】What is the author’s attitude towards people not smiling in old photos?
A. Skeptical.
B. Critical.
C. Neutral.
D. Positive.
