翻譯專業(yè)資格一級筆譯模擬試題（三）

The fact that a compass needle assulnes a northsouth direction leads to the conclusion that the earth must be a magnet，　with the space all around it constituting a huge magnetic field.

翻譯：指南針指向南北方向這一事實(shí)可導(dǎo)出這樣的結(jié)論：地球必定是一個(gè)磁體，地球周圍的所有空間構(gòu)成了一個(gè)巨大的磁場。(句中兩個(gè)that引導(dǎo)的都是同位語從句。with...field是分詞復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)，起補(bǔ)充說明作用。)

Marilyn Monroe

Marilyn Monroe proved that where there's a will, there's a way. She overcame a childhood of abuse in foster homes, worked as a swimsuit model, and eventually became one of the most famous movie stars of all time. Her life was often regarded as a fairytale and her legendary marriage to baseball great Joe DiMaggio was the hallmark of this perception。

Her performances in films like Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and Some Like It Hot confirmed she had as much talent as she did beauty. Her tragic death on August 5, 1962 was ruled a suicide by overmedication, which only intensified her perpetual allure and legendary status。

翻譯：瑪麗蓮·夢露

瑪麗蓮 夢露證明了“有志者事竟成”。她克服了童年時(shí)期在多個(gè)收養(yǎng)家庭中遭受的虐待，做過泳裝模特，最終成為歷史上最為耀眼的電影明星之一。人們常常把夢露的一生看作一個(gè)童話故事，而她和棒球明星喬 迪 馬吉奧的傳奇婚姻就是這一看法的最好詮釋。

她在《紳士愛美人》和《熱情似火》等電影里的表演證明了她不僅有美麗的外表，也有出眾的才華。她在1962年8月5日的悲慘離世被裁定為因過度用藥引起的自殺。她的離去更加深了她經(jīng)久不衰的魅力，鞏固了她的傳奇地位。

著名言論：“我不知道是誰發(fā)明的高跟鞋，但所有女人都為此對他感激不已。”
