2019年翻譯資格考試英語口譯高級模擬題：科技進(jìn)步

　　漢譯英

　　科技進(jìn)步正在使我們能夠探索宇宙的邊陲、物質(zhì)最基本的成分及生命的奇跡.與此同時(shí)，今天，人類所做的及沒能做到的事情，不僅危害到這個(gè)星球上的生命，也危害到該星球的壽命。 全球化正在使地球變得愈來愈小、愈來愈快和愈來愈富有。盡管如此，911、禽流感及伊朗提醒我們，更小更快的世界決不意味著其更安全。 我們正處于一個(gè)知識(shí)爆炸的世界之中，不過，迫切需要智慧�，F(xiàn)在，在(新聞采訪的)原聲摘要播出變得愈來愈短，即時(shí)信息淘汰了雜記文，個(gè)人生活變得如癡如狂之際，這個(gè)世界還是需要能夠深思的大學(xué)生.考慮到這些理由，我過去信仰，而今天甚至更加強(qiáng)烈地信仰大學(xué)獨(dú)特的、無可取代的使命。

　　參考譯文

　　Scientific and technological advances are enabling us to comprehend the furthest reaches of the cosmos, the most basic constituents of matter, and the miracle of life. At the same time, today, the actions, and inaction, of human beings imperil not only life on the planet, but the very life of the planet. // Globalization is making the world smaller, faster and richer. Still, 911, avian flu, and Iran remind us that a smaller, faster world is not necessarily a safer world. Our world is bursting with knowledge - but desperately in need of wisdom. Now, when sound bites are getting shorter, when instant messages crowd out essays, and when individual lives grow more frenzied, college graduates capable of deep reflection are what our world needs. For all these reasons I believed - and I believe even more strongly today - in the unique and irreplaceable mission of universities.
