SECTION 3: TRANSLATION TEST (1) (30 minutes)

Directions: Translate the following passage into Chinese and write your version in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.

The culture of any society is usually thought to be of two kinds: material and nonmaterial. Material culture includes the man-made phenomena which have physical properties such as height, breadth, and weight. A boat, a machine, a house—all these objects are part of the material culture. The nonmaterial culture is that portion of the environment which surrounds man and which has an impact on his behavior but which lacks these material properties: values, beliefs, traditions, and all the other habits and ideas invented and acquired by man as a member of society.
Contemporary sociological theory tends to assign primary importance to the nonmaterial culture in choosing problems for study. It assumes, for example, that boats, planes, automobiles, and so forth, are not nearly so important as the traditions we have developed which make their manufacture possible—indeed, which prescribe how we are to use them. The emphasis of contemporary sociology is to insist that the material culture would not exist had not the nonmaterial culture first been available to suggest the ideas which are embodied in the inventions of material culture.

進(jìn)入耶魯大學(xué)的校園，看到莘莘學(xué)子青春洋溢的臉龐，呼吸著書香濃郁的空氣，我不由回想起40年前在北京清華大學(xué)度過的美好時光。當(dāng)年老師們對我的教誨，同學(xué)們給我的啟發(fā)，我至今仍受用不盡。
耶魯大學(xué)以悠久的發(fā)展歷史、獨(dú)特的辦學(xué)風(fēng)格、卓著的學(xué)術(shù)成就聞名于世。如果時光能夠倒流幾十年，我真希望成為你們中的一員。耶魯大學(xué)校訓(xùn)強(qiáng)調(diào)追求光明和真理，這符合人類進(jìn)步的法則，也符合每個有志青年的心愿。
