section vii english-chinese translation
choose either of the following two passages and translate it into chinese. (30 points)
(1)
in country after country, talk of non-smokers’ right is in the air. while a majority of countries have taken little or no action yet, some 30 nations have introduced legislative steps to control smoking. many laws have been introduced in other countries to help clear the air for nonsmokers, or to cut cigarette consumption.
in some developed countries the consumption of cigarettes has become more or less stabilized. however, in many developing nations, cigarette smoking is seen as a sign of economic progress — and is even encouraged. as more tobacco companies go international, new markets are sought to gain new smokers in those countries. for example, great efforts are made by the american tobacco industry to sell cigarettes in the middle east and north africa — where u.s. tobacco exports increased by more than 27 percent in 1974
.
smoking is harmful to the health of people. world governments should conduct serious campaigns against it. restrictions on cigarette advertisements, plus health warnings on packages and bans on public smoking in certain places such as theatres, cinemas and restaurants, are the most popular tools used by nations in support of nonsmokers or in curbing smoking. but world attention also is focusing on another step which will make the smoker increasingly self-conscious and uncomfortable about his habit. great efforts should be made to inform young people especially of the dreadful consequences of taking up the habit. and cigarette price should be boosted.
in the long run, there is no doubt that everybody would be much better-off if smoking were banned altogether, but people are not ready for such drastic action.
(2)
nuclear power’s danger to health, safety, and even life itself can be summed up in one word: radiation.
nuclear radiation has a certain mystery about it, partly because it cannot be detected by human senses. it can’t be seen or heard, or touched or tasted, even though it may be all around us. there are other things like that. for example, radio waves are all around us but we can’t detect them, sense them, without a radio receiver. similarly, we can’t sense radioactivity without a radiation detector. but unlike common radio waves, nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other living things.
at very high levels, radiation can kill an animal or human being outright by killing masses of cells in vital organs. but even the lowest levels can do serious damage. there is no level of radiation that is completely safe. if the radiation does not hit anything important, the damage many not be significant. this is the case when only a few cells are hit, and if they are killed outright. your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones. but if the few cells are only damaged, and if they reproduce themselves, you may be in a deformed way. they can grow into cancer. sometimes this does not show up for many years.
this is another reason for some of the mystery about nuclear radiation. serious damage can be done without the victim being aware at the time that damage has occurred. a person can be irradiated and feel fine, then die of cancer five, ten, or twenty years later as a result. or a child can be born weak or liable to serious illness as a result of radiation absorbed by its grandparents.
radiation can hurt us. we must know the truth.
