Section A English to Chinese (60 points)

Intelligent life on a planet comes of ages when it first works out the reason for its own existence. If superior creatures from space ever visit earth, the first question they will ask, in order to assess the level of our civilization, is: “Have they discovered evolution yet?” Living organisms had existed on earth, without ever knowing why, for over three thousand million years before the truth finally downed on one of them. His name was Charles Darwin. To be fair, others had had inklings of the truth, but it was Darwin who first put together a coherent and tenable account of why we exist. Darwin made it possible for us t give a sensible answer to the curious child whose question heads this chapter. We no longer have to resort to superstition when faced with the deep problems: Is there a meaning to life? What are we for? What is man? After posing the last of these questions, the eminent zoologist G. G. Simpson put it this: “The point I want to make now is that all attempts to answer that question before 1859 are worthless and that we will be better off if we ignore them completely.”

Today the theory of evolution is about as much open to doubt as the theory that the earth goes round the sun, but the full implications of Darwin’ s revolution have yet to be widely realized. Zoology is still a minority subject in universities, and even those who choose to study it often make their decision without appreciating its profound philosophical significance. Philosophy and the subjects known as “humanities” are still taught almost as if Darwin had never lived. No doubt this will change in time. In any case, this book is not intended as a general advocacy of Darwinism. Instead, it will explore the consequences of the evolution theory for a particular issue. My purpose is to examine the biology of selfishness and altruism.

总部设在德克萨斯州的全球语言监测机构运用一套数学公式来追踪词和短语的使用频率。根据其年度调查， “漏油” （spillcam）和 “呜呜祖拉” （vuvuzela）成为 2010 年最热门词汇。

“漏油”一词变得家喻户晓，描述了今年早些时候墨西哥湾海底油井破裂的实况直播， 油井破裂引发了全球最大的海上漏油事件。

呜呜祖拉是一种颜色鲜艳的塑料喇叭， 发出的嗡嗡声单调低沉， 成了南非世界杯足球赛 的标志，后来这种喇叭在欧洲冠军联赛等欧洲足球比赛中被禁用。

此外，该调查还表明，中国国家主席胡锦涛和苹果公司的新产品 iPad 在年度热词名字 榜单中排行最靠前。 (原文地址：www.chinadaily.com.cn/language_tips/news/2010-11/15/content_11552496.htm 翻译硕士真题网注）

参考译文：The Texas-based survey uses a math formula to track the frequency of words and phrases.

“Spillcam” and “vuvuzela” were the top words of 2010, according to a survey released on Sunday.

Spillcam became a household phrase describing the live video of the ruptured sea well in the Gulf Of Mexico that earlier this year led to the world’s biggest offshore oil spill.

It declared that President Hu Jintao of China and Apple’s new iPad were the two top names of the year on a list.

Vuvuzela — the bright colored plastic horns with a monotonous droning sound became the hallmark of the World Cup soccer tournament in South Africa. They were later banned from European soccer competitions like the UEFA Champions League.
