II. Directions: Translate the following source texts into their target language respectively. (120，）Source Text 1:I believe it is only a matter of time before China is the largest economy. Whether this occurs in 10 years or 20 is beside the point. What matters is the trend.
Yet this promising trend will also bring major challenges. One is the process of urbanization, particularly in mega-city dimensions like Guangzhou and other cities in Guangdong Province. The primary challenge is to ensure sustainable development. This means meeting the needs of a growing urban population without condemning future generations to unacceptable levels of pollution, disastrous climatic disturbances and depleted resources. It means finding financially feasible solutions for providing adequate power, water, healthcare, waste disposal and so on to millions of urban residents.
The task is formidable. So formidable, in fact, that no city and no central government can hope to master it alone. All stakeholders in the future, from the government, municipal authorities and business community to the general public，must work together, and work hard, toward this goal.
In this context, the advantages of strong public-private partnership are obvious. Close cooperation between the public and the private sectors enables the partners to share risks, responsibilities and benefits. We believe the future will belong to partner companies that are willing, and able, to act in this team spirit.
As one of the world’s largest electronic and electrical engineering companies and a leading provider of infrastructure around the globe, Siemens has long been committed to public-private
partnership. We see ourselves as an integral pan of the societies we serve, as an active and influential voice in environmental matters, and as a good corporate citizen in the global community as well as in each of the 190 countries where we operate. Our deepest commitment is helping shape society by providing beneficial solutions that promote sustainable urban development. In short, we see ourselves as an architect of the future. (308 words)
【note】 mega-city dimensions=百万人口大城市，stakeholders:受益者，Siemens:西门子公
Source Text 2:不怕直说，我是相当欣赏自己的。我承认自己有许多不如人的地方，但也知道并不老是这样差劲。所以，我做了一件事，写了一篇文章，只要自觉还不错我可以乐上几天，遇有人赞，更飘飘然得不像话；甚至还会忘其所以，插上几句自夸的话。
真的，我一点也不谦虚。
或者这就是自负吧，恐怕要给人骂了。但有什么不对呢？
我也欣赏别人，凡是好的东西我都欣赏。只懂得欣赏别人而忘了欣赏自己，岂不是太不公平了？
但是我们华人总是比较谦虚，而且引以为荣。自己的太太叫拙荆，文章曰拙作。如果你当真叫他的太太山芭婆，文章如狗屁，他保证勃然大怒，和你拍桌子绝交。其实，你所说的，和他说的，可能并没什么两样。
我认为，如果你的东西确是好的，直接说它好，没有什么不对。老王卖瓜，只要卖的是好瓜，为什么不能自卖自夸？
老兄，老王是靠卖瓜吃饭的，叫他也学我们书生扭扭捏捏，对自己的瓜谦虚一番，生意还用做么？他保证饿死大吉。
能欣赏自己，才能敬业乐业，写文章的人，若老是觉得自己的文章不行，我不相信他有信心涂下去。
卖文的，更不必说了。(437个字）（选自英培安-《欣赏自己》 翻译硕士真题网注）
【Note】拙荆=my humble wife,山芭婆=a rustic woman
参考译文:Frankly, I very much appreciate myself. Yes, I admit I’m in many respects not as good as other people, but I don’t think I’m always no good. When I find what I’ve done or written is okay, I’ll remain pleased with myself for quite a few days, and, in case I receive praise for it, I’ll even become so swollen-headed as to add a few words to glorify myself.
True, I’m not modest at all.
People may call me conceited. But I think otherwise.
I also appreciate other people. I appreciate anything good. Isn’t it unfair to forget appreciating myself while appreciating others?
We Chinese are generally inclined to be modest, and we take pride in being so. For example, a Chinese will call his own wife zhuojing, meaning “my humble wife”, and his own writings zhuozuo, meaning “my poor writings”. But if you should call his wife a “rustic women” or his writings “trash”, he would, I’m sure, slap the table in a rage and declare he would make a clean break with you. As a matter of fact, there is probably no difference at all between what is said by him and you respectively.
I don’t think it’s wrong for you to freely praise yourself if you’re really worthy of praise. As we know, there is an old Chinese saying disparaging a melon peddler, named Lao Wang, who keeps praising his own goods. Well, why can’t he praise his melons if they are really sweet and juicy?
Friends, Lao Wang sells melons for a living. How could he carry on business if he, by imitating the affectations of us intellectuals, were to show false modesty about his melons? He would sure enough die of starvation.
Self-appreciation is therefore the key to professional dedication and enjoyment of work. One will lose confidence in continuing with writing when he ceases to admire his own essays.
Needless to say, the same is true of those who make a living with their pen.
