2017年CATTI三級(jí)筆譯考試練習(xí)（附答案）
第1題
Awarded the Nobel Prize for physics in 1918, German physicist Max Planck is best remembered as the originator of the quantum theory. His work helped usher in a new era in theoretical physics and revolutionized the scientific community's understanding of atomic and subatomic processes. Planck introduced an idea that led to the quantum theory, which became the foundation of twentieth century physics. In December 1900, Planck worked out an equation that described the distribution of radiation accurately over the range of low to high frequencies. He had developed a theory which depended on a model of matter that seemed very strange at the time. The model required the emission of electromagnetic radiation in small chunks or particles. These particles were later called quantums. The energy associated with each quantum is measured by multiplying the frequency of the radiation, v, by a universal constant, h. Thus, energy, or E, equals hv. The constant, h, is known as Planck's constant. It is now recognized as one of the fundamental constants of the world. Planck announced his findings in 1900, but it was years before the full consequences of his revolutionary quantum theory were recognized. Throughout his life, Planck made significant contributions to optics, thermodynamics and statistical mechanics, physical chemistry, among other fields. In which of the following fields did Max Planck NOT make a significant conla4bution?
A Optics. B Thermodynamics. C Statistical mechanics. D Biology.
【正確答案】：D
【答案解析】 [分析] 是非題型。 文中最后一句(Through out his life, Planck made significant contributions to optics, thermodynamics and statistical mechanics, physical chemistry, among other fields. )提到馬克斯•普朗克在光學(xué)、 熱力學(xué)、統(tǒng)計(jì)力學(xué)、物理化學(xué)等領(lǐng)域作出了巨大貢獻(xiàn)。其中提到 A、B、C 三個(gè)選 項(xiàng)，只有 D 沒(méi)有提及，故選項(xiàng) D 正確。

第7題 There has been much speculation about the origin of baseball. In 1907 a special commission decided that the modern game was invented by Abner Doubleday in 1839. One hundred years later the National Baseball Museum 模考吧 www.mokaoba.com was opened to honor Doubleday. Historians, however, disagree about the origin of baseball. Some say that baseball comes from bat-and-ball games of ancient times. It is a matter of record that in the 1700s English boys played a game they called "baseball". Americans have played a kind of baseball since about 1800. At first tile American game had different rules and different names in various parts of the country — "town ball". "rounders", or "one old cat". Youngsters today still play some of these simplified forms of the game. Baseball did not receive a standard set of rules until 1845, when Alexander Cartwright organized the Knicker-bocker Baseball Club of New York City. The rules Cartwright set up for his nine-player team were widely adopted by other clubs and formed the basis of modem baseball. The game was played on a "diamond" infield with the bases 90 feet apart. The first team to score 21 runs was declared the winner. By 1858 the National Association of Baseball Players was formed with 25 amateur teams. The Cincinnati Red Stockings began to pay players in 1869. Which of the following is true about the origins of baseball?
A Historians agree that baseball was invented by Abner Doubleday. B Baseball, as played in the early 19th century, differed very little from today's game. C As early as the 1700s, English boys played a game called "baseball". D The first standard set of baseball rules was established at the turn of the century
【正確答案】：C
【答案解析】 [分析] 是非題型。 見(jiàn)文章第一段： 盡管在 1907 年， 一個(gè)特別委員會(huì)認(rèn)定棒球是 Abner Doubleday 在 1839 年發(fā)明的， 但歷史學(xué)家們卻對(duì)此持有不同看法。有案可查的是在 17 世紀(jì) 英國(guó)孩子打一種他們稱之為“棒球”的游戲。美國(guó)人從大約 1800 年起玩一種棒 球， 而這種棒球有著不同的規(guī)則和名字;文章第二段第一句指出棒球第一套規(guī)則 的出臺(tái)是在 1845 年，因此選項(xiàng) A、B、D 均不對(duì)，選項(xiàng) C 正確。
第8題 What was the first professional baseball team called?
A New York Knickerbockers. B Milwaukee Braves. C Cincinnati Red Stockings. D Brooklyn Dodgers.
【正確答案】：A
【答案解析】 [分析] 細(xì)節(jié)題型。 見(jiàn)文章第二段：Alexander Cartwright 在 1845 年成立了紐約市 Knickerbocker 棒球俱樂(lè)部，出臺(tái)了標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的比賽規(guī)則，所以選項(xiàng) A 正確。 第9題 Who first gave baseball a standard set of rules'? A Abner Doubleday. B Alexander Cartwfight. C Albert Spalding. D Babe Ruth. 【正確答案】：B 【本題分?jǐn)?shù)】：1.0 分 【答案解析】 [分析] 細(xì)節(jié)題型。 見(jiàn)上題解釋，正確選項(xiàng)為 B。

A Rounders. B Town ball. C Cricket. D One old cat.
【正確答案】：C
【答案解析】 [分析] 是非題型。 見(jiàn)文章第一段倒數(shù)第二句 At first the American game had different rules and different names in various parts of the country — "town ball", "rounders", or "one old cat".
第 11 題
The tone of the passage is ______. A persuasive B informative C biased D argumentative
【正確答案】：B
【答案解析】 [分析] 態(tài)度題型。 閱讀全文發(fā)現(xiàn)，本文既沒(méi)有就某一觀點(diǎn)展開(kāi)勸說(shuō)或論證，也沒(méi)有發(fā)表帶有個(gè) 人偏見(jiàn)的主觀看法;只是客觀地講述了棒球運(yùn)動(dòng)的起源及發(fā)展。因此選項(xiàng) A，C、 D 均不對(duì)，選項(xiàng) B 正確。
第 12 題 The passage implies that until 1869, baseball was played for all of the following reasons EXCEPT ______.
A exercise B leisure C profit D socializing
【正確答案】：C
【答案解析】 [分析] 推斷題型。 見(jiàn)文章最后一句 The Cincinnati Red Stockings 在 1869 年開(kāi)始付球員工資， 因此棒球運(yùn)動(dòng)自此除了能起到鍛煉、休閑和社交作用外還有收益。所以在 1869 年前棒球運(yùn)動(dòng)只起到鍛煉、休閑和社交作用，選項(xiàng) C 正確。
第 13 題
The blue of the sea is caused by the scattering of sunlight by tiny particles suspended in the water. Blue light, being of short wavelength, is scattered more efficiently than light of longer wavelengths. Although waters of the open ocean are commonly some shade of blue, green water is commonly seen near coasts, especially in tropical or subtropical regions. This is caused by yellow pigments being mixed with blue water. Phytoplankton are one source of the yellow pigment. Other microscopic plants may color the water brown or brownish-red. Near the shore, silt or sediment in suspension can give water a brownish hue. Outflow of large rivers can often be observed many miles offshore by the coloration of suspended soil particles. Marine phytoplankton (Greek for "plant wanderers") are microscopic single-celled plants that include diatoms, dinoflagellates, coccolithophorids, green algae, and blue-green algae, among others. The growth of these organisms, which photosynthesize light, depends on a delicate balance of nutrient enrichment via vertical mixing, which is often limited by the availability of nitrogen and light. Diatoms are one-celled plants with patterned glass coverings. Each glass, or silicon dioxide box, is ornamented with species-specific designs, pits, and perforations making them popular with microscopists and, more recently, electron scanning microscopists. Green water near coastlines is almost always caused by ______.
A sand color B red pigments in coastal waters C blue pigment D reflected light and yellow pigment from plant life
【正確答案】：D
【答案解析】 [分析] 細(xì)節(jié)題型。 見(jiàn)文章第一句：The blue of the sea is caused by the scattering of sunlight by tiny particles suspended in the water.藍(lán)色的海水是由于陽(yáng) 光對(duì)懸浮于水中的微粒造成散射形成的。第四、五句：This is caused by yellow pigments being mixed with blue water. Phytoplankton are one source of the yellow pigment.海水呈綠色是由于藍(lán)色的海水和呈現(xiàn)黃色的浮游生物混合形成 的。所以選項(xiàng) D 正確。
第 14 題
Phytoplankton are the source of which color pigment?
A Red. B Green. C Yellow. D Blue.
【正確答案】：C
【答案解析】 [分析] 細(xì)節(jié)題型。 見(jiàn)文章第一段第五句，選項(xiàng) C 正確。
第 15 題
What can give waters a brownish hue near the shore? A Sediment. B Phytoplankton. C Blue pigment. D Diatoms.
