English-Chinese Translation(15%)John Bodman was a man who was always at one extreme or the other. This probably would have mattered little had he not married a wife whose nature was an exact duplicate of his own. Doubtless there exists in this world precisely the right woman for any given man to marry and vice versa; but when you consider that one human being has the opportunity of being acquainted with only a few hundred people, and out of the few hundred that there are but a dozen or less whom one knows intimately, and out of the dozen, one or two close friends at most, it will easily be seen, when we remember the number of millions who inhabit this world, that probably, since the Earth was created, the right man has never yet met the right woman. The mathematical chances are all against such a meeting, and this is the reason that divorce courts exist. Marriage at best is but a compromise, and if two people happen to be united who are of an uncompromising nature there is bound to be trouble.In the lives of these two young people there was no middle distance. The result was bound to be either love or hate, and in the case of Mr. and Mrs. Bodman,it was hate of the most bitter and egotistical kind.6. Chinese-English Translation (20%)Directions: Please translate the following paragraphs into English. 在过去的几年里,我老有一种不祥之感,觉得有什么人,或什么东西,一直在我脑袋里捣鼓不停,重绘我的脑电图,重写我的脑内存。我的思想倒没跑掉—到目前为止我还能这么说,但它正在改变。我的思维方式在变。这种感觉在我阅读的时候尤为强烈。过去总是不费劲就能让自己沉浸在一本书或一篇长文章中,被其中的叙述或不同的论点深深吸引。我还会花数小时徜徉在长篇散文中。可如今这都不灵了。现在,我翻上两三页书,注意力就开始不集中了。我会变得烦躁,抓不住重点,开始想找点其他的事情做。我感觉我似乎要硬拖着我任性的大脑才能回到文章中。原本轻松自然的深度阅读,已成了痛苦挣扎。我想我知道到底是怎么一回事了。十多年来,我在网上花了好多时间,在因特网的信息汪洋中冲浪搜寻添加。对作家而言,网络就像个天上掉下来的聚宝盆。过去要在书堆里或图书馆的期刊阅览室中花上好几天做的研究,现在几分钟就齐活。“谷歌”几下,快速点开几个链接,就可以找到我所需要的事实或者精炼的引证。即使在工作之余,我也很有可能在信息丰富的网络里遨游—收发电子邮件浏览头条新闻点击博客看视频听播客或者只是从一个链接跳转到一个又一个链接。(超链接常被比作脚注,但是和脚注不一样,超链接不仅仅链接到相关作品;它们还驱使你去点击创门。)考研高分咨询罗老师电话/微信:**
