How would you translate Chairman Mao Zedong's expression:“Bu Ai Hong Zhuang Ai Wu
Zhuang"?“English or American translators might use the words:They love uniforms not gay
dresses,”said Xu Yuanchong,a well-known Chinese translator and thefirst Asian winner of the
world's highest prize for translation,the Aurora Borealis Prize.Xu thought that this translation
was correct but not beautiful at all.He cleverly used just two words—“face”and “powder”—to
translate it as “To face the powder and not to powder the face”,which became one of Xu's most
representative translations.
Xu thought that the equivalence(相同)of idea,sound and form were the three basic elements
found in good translation.However,his method—recreation instead of literal(字面的) —is
controversial.Some people said that it was different from the original text.“I think not.”Xu
replied firmly.“Westen languages are comparable.It's easy to find the equivalent ofEnglish in
other languages.But it's different in Chinese.There are only 50%of equivalents between Chinese
and English.If you cannot find an equivalent,then you must find the best words to franslate.To
find the best word is innovation.It's recreation,"he explained.
Xu Yuanchong likes to communicate with the younger generation.about academic
work, hoping that working together to spread Chinese culture will contribute to making the
world a better place.
Xu Yuanchong also authored a book,which in Chinese is called “Meng Yu Zhen”,which
literally means“dream and reality".But Xu created a different English name for it.He used“A
dream translated into reality”.“This summarizes my entire life.My whole life is about translating
高二英语试题卷第 3 页(共 8 页)my dream into reality,"he explained.
Xu Yuanchong was an expert at translating ancient Chinese poems into English and
French but even at the age of 96 had one dream still to fulfill—to translate all of Shakespeare's
works into Chinese.
24.What does Xu Yuanchong's translation mainly focus on?
A.The accuracy of grammar. B.The surface meaning.
C.Internal meaning and language beauty. D.Consistence with the
original. 25.What does the underlined word“controversial”in Paragraph 2
probably mean?
A.Debatable. B.Conventional. C.Admirable. D.Fundamental
26.Why does Xu Yuanchong like to be with young people?
A.To keep a young mind inside himself.
B.To teach them more academic knowledge.
C.To make up for his existingtranslation skills.
D.To jointly improve the world with Chinese culture.
27.Which of the following can be used to describe Xu Yuanchong?
A.Smart and tolerant. B.Creative and ambitious.
C.Humorous and generous. D.Cooperative and sensitive.

To solve a big environmental problem,chemists have been thinking small.Really small:a
new mini robot with the purpose of helping clean up tiny plastic that pollutes water across the
world.
The new microrobots,each of which is no bigger than the tip of a pencil,are magnetic(有
磁 性的)and shaped like four-pointed stars.When the sunlight shines on them,they can swim
in a direction;when the sunlight disappears,they stop moving.Finding a piece of plastic,they
hold onto it,produce chemical reactions and start to break it down.
The project is led by chemist Martin Pumera,a researcher who also studies ways to build
microrobots at the Czech University of Chemistry and Technology in Prague.About ten years
ago, he noticed the microplastic was everywhere,fromthe bottom of the ocean to the ice on the
top of mountains.It even turned up in drinking water,both bottled and tap water.Just think
about how much plastic you meet every day.It doesn't easily degrade(降解),which is a
big problem. Therefore,Pumera chose to focus on the problem of water pollution caused by
microplastic.
The researchers tested the microrobots on four types of plastic in the lab.After a week,all
four begandegrading,losing around 3 percent of their weight,which showed the microrobots
were breaking the plastic down.The robots also tumed theplastic's smooth surface into the
rough one. Finally,the scientists showed that magnets could attract the microrobots at the
end of the test—alongwith theplastic waste
In fact,Pumera says they still have a long way to go.These microrobots are unlikely to
succeed in degrading all types ofplastic.They'll also need a lot of testingto show that they're
safe in open waterways,such as at sea.But he thinks that these challenges can be
overcome.Someday, the microrobots will play a big role in a worldwide cleanup effort.
28.About the new microrobot,we can know that
A.it is in the shape of a ball B.it is as small as a pencil
C.it is driven by sunlight D.it uses physical reactions
高二英语试题卷第4页(共8页)29.What turnedout to be Pumera's inspiration to design the microrobot?
A.The microplastic pollution. B.The ice on the mountains.
C.The need for drinking water. D.The development ofocean
resources. 30.In what way does a microrobot deal with the plastic?
A.Making its surface smooth. B.Breaking it down to some degree.
C.Taking in it completely. D.Sorting it into four types.
31.When it comes to their future research,Pumera's very
A.doubtful. B.confident. C.regretful. D.uncertain.

You've likely encountered the humblebrag before—boasting( 吹 嘘 )disguised( 伪 装
)as a complaint,such as:T'm having such a stressful day.I got two job offers and I don't know
whatto do.”
This is a typical example of humblebragging,a term coined by comedic writer Harris
Wittels referring to“a specific type of boast that allows the offender to broadcast their
achievements without the necessary shame and guilt that should normally accompany such
claims.”In simpler terms,it's a way to disguise a boast with some humility(谦
虚).Humblebragging comes in two different forms.The first is humility-based,an example
being,“I can't believe I got the highest grade in my class”The second type comes mixed with
a bit of complaint,for example,“I can't believe that shopkeeper asked me for ID.I'm 25!”
People don't like it when others humblebrag because they find they are lacking in sincerity.
Sincerity is a critical dimension of social evaluation,which is viewed as fundamental to
people's identity.In fact,people prize sincerity even above competence and warmth in
others,according to Dr Sezer.
If humblebragging doesn't work,and no one likes it,why do we still do it?We all want to
highlight our positive qualities without seeming proud.By speaking in a complaint or an
expression of humility,we hope we'll somehow land on the “sweet spot”ofself-presentation:
promoting ourselves while also conveying likabllity.In addition,research suggests that people
may experience positive emotions while humblebragging.
Considering that we're all likely to feel the urge to humblebrag,at least to some extent,the
proper response when we hear a friend doing it may be to simply let it go—because ultimately
we're going to do it ourselves,and who really wants to be called out on it?
32.Which of the following remarks is an example of
humblebragging? A.How I hate hearing my voice on TV!
B.I'm thrilled to be awarded the first prize.
C.I'm the only person to get promoted in the film.
D.How I dislike doing the same thing every day!
33.Which can best describe people's impression of humblebraggers?
A,Honest. B.Humble. C.Insincere. D.Incapable.
34.Why dopeople humblebrag?
A.To lift up their spirits, B.To express their complaints.
C.To improve their moral qualities. D.To show off without bringing
annoyance 35.What are people advised todo when hearing humblebragging from a friend?
A.Follow it up. B.Leave it alone
C.Turn against it. D.Get to the root of it

余 选项。
A few years ago,I felt like I was stuck in confusion.So I decided to follow in the footsteps
of the great American“philosopher”,Morgan Spurlock,and try something new for 30 days.The
idea is actually pretty simple.Think about something you've always wanted to add to your life
and try it for the next 30 days.It turns out, 36 -like watching the news.
There are a few things I learned while doing these 30-day challenges.The first was as I
started to do more and harder 30-day challenges, 37 .I went from a desk-
dwelling computer nerd(书呆子)to the kind ofguy who bikes to work.Even last year,I ended up
hiking
up Mount Kilimanjaro,the highest mountain in Africa.I would never have been that
adventurous before I started my 30-day challenges.
38 .Have you ever wanted to write a novel?Every November,tens
of thousands of people try to write their own 50,000-word novel.It turns outthatall you have to do
is write about 1,667 words a day for a month.So I did.I learned that when I made small,
sustainable changes,they were easier to stick to.There's nothing wrong with big,crazy
challenges. 39 But they are more difficult to stick to.
So what are you waiting for? 40 ,sowhy not think about something
you have always wanted to try and give it a shot for the next 30 days.
A.In fact,they're a ton of fun
B.In fact,I think they're not practical
C.I renewed myself while sticking to the challenges
D.I wanted to avoid something for the first time in my life

not F.30 days is justthe right amount of time to add a new
habit
