      1988年考研翻譯題及參考答案

       

      Section III English-Chinese Translation

      Translate the following passage into Chinese. Only the underlined sentences are to be translated. (20 points)

      Seated behind the front desk at a New York firm, the receptionist was efficient.

      Stylishly dressed, the firm’s newest employee had a pleasant telephone voice and a natural charm that put clients at ease. The company was pleased: (21) Clearly, this was a person who took considerable pride in personal appearance. David King, the receptionist, is unusual, but by no means unique. (22) Just as all truck drivers and construction workers are no longer necessarily men, all secretaries and receptionists are no longer automatically women. The number of men in women-dominated fields is still small and they haven’t attracted the attention that has often followed women advancing into male-dominated fields, but men are moving into more and more jobs that have traditionally been held by women.

      Strictly speaking, the phenomenon is not new. For the past several decades, men have been quietly entering fields such as nursing, social work and elementary education. But today no job seems off-limits. Men serve coffee in offices and meals on airplanes. (23) These changes are helping to influence some of the long-standing traditions about the types of work men and women can do -- but they also produce some undeniable problems for the men who are entering those fields formerly dominated by women.

      What kinds of men venture into these so-called “women’s fields”? All kinds. (24)I don’t know of any definite answers I’d be comfortable with,” explains Joseph Pleck, Ph. D. , of the Wellesley College Centre for Research on Women.

      Sam Ormont, for example, a thirty-year-old nurse at a Boston hospital, went into nursing because the army had trained him as a medical worker. (25) “I found that work very interesting. ” he recalled, “and when I got out of the service it just seemed natural for me to go into something medical. I wasn’t really interested in becoming a doctor. ” Thirty-five-year-old David King, an out-of-work actor, found a job as a receptionist because he was having trouble landing roles in Broadway plays and he needed to pay the rent.

      (26) In other words, men enter “female” jobs out of the same consideration for personal interest and economic necessity that motivates anyone looking for work. But similarities often end there. Men in female-dominated jobs are conspicuous. As a group, their work histories differ in most respects from those of their female colleagues, and they are frequently treated differently by the people with whom they are in professional contact.

      The question naturally arises: Why are there still approximately ninety-nine female secretaries for every one male? There is also a more serious issue. Most men don’t want to be receptionists, nurses, secretaries or sewing workers. Put simply, these are not generally considered very masculine jobs. (27) To choose such a line of work is to invite ridicule.

      “There was kidding in the beginning,” recalls Ormont. “Kids coming from school ask what I am, and when I say ‘A nurse,’ they laugh at me. I just smile and say, ‘You know, there are female doctors, too. ’”

      Still, there are encouraging signs. Years ago, male grade school teachers were as rare as male nurses. Today more than one elementary school teacher in six is male.(www.yywords.com)

      (28) Can we anticipate a day when secretaries will be an even mix of men and women — or when the mention of a male nurse will no longer raise eyebrows? It’s probably coming -- but not very soon.

      21. 顯然,他是個對自己的儀表感到相當(dāng)自豪的人。

      22. 正像卡車司機(jī)和建筑工人再沒必要都是男的一樣,所有秘書和接待員再也不一定都是女的。

      23. 這些變化正影響著長期存在的傳統(tǒng)觀念中關(guān)于男女各可以干哪幾類工作的看法,但這對于進(jìn)入原先以婦女為主的那些的男人來說,無疑也帶來一些問題。

      24. 我還沒聽說過有任何使我感到滿意的確切答案。

      25. 他回憶說:我覺得那種工作十分有趣,當(dāng)我退役時,對我來說,去干某種醫(yī)務(wù)工作,似乎是極其自然的。

      26. 換句話說,男人干起了女人干的工作,其動機(jī)是同任何找工作干的人一樣,既出于個人的興趣,也出于經(jīng)濟(jì)上需要的考慮。

      27. 選定這一類工作是會惹人笑話的。

      28. 我們是否能預(yù)見到這么一天:那時當(dāng)秘書的男女各占一半或有人提到某個男人當(dāng)護(hù)士時,人們不會再感到吃驚?
