Ⅱ. Translate the following two passages into Chinese:（30%）
1. One has the leisure of July for perceiving all the differences of the green of leaves. It is no
longer a difference in degrees of maturity, for all the trees have darkened to their final tone, and
stand in their difference of character and not mere date. Almost all the green is grave, not sad and
not dull. It has a darkened and a daily color, in majestic but not obvious harmony with dark gray
skies, and might look, to inconstant eyes, as prosaic after spring as eleven o’clock looks after the
dawn.
2. For truly successful translating, biculturalism is even more important that bilingualism,
since words only have meaning in terms of the cultures in which they function. Dictionaries and
encyclopedias are important source of strategic cultural information, but they can never take the
place of personal involvement in a foreign society. This is one of the reasons why most programs
for the training of translators and interpreters require that students spend at least six months to a
year in each of the countries where the student’s acquired languages are spoken. Only by being in
the countries in which a foreign language is spoken can one acquire the necessary sensitivity to the
special meaning of words and phrases.
