【题目】第一节 语篇翻译

Big Ben(大本钟), will fall quiet for four years. 66.它是伦敦最受欢迎的地方之一。 But now it needs repairs. It has worked for 157 years. It sounded for the last time at noon on August 21 this year.

Four years would be a long time for London people. 67.Although they felt a little upset, they were still understanding. “It will be very sad, but it needs to be done,’ said Kirsten Hurrel. “68.I already prepared myself for the days without the rings for Big Ben.” About 2,5700 people went to hear Big Ben’s last rings. However, 69.如果有重要的事件,大本钟又会开始工作。 For example, it will spend the New Year’s Eve with its people and the speech of the Queen.

Well, this is not the first time in history that the bell has stopped. It stopped for repairs between 1983 and 1985, and again in 2007.

The bell is the largest bell in the country. It is about 13 tons, as heavy as two elephants. The repairs may cost about 29 million. By the year 2021 when it reappears, Big Ben will look totally newly-dressed. 70.“I believe most people in London are looking forward to that day,” said the chief engineer Adams White.

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C和D中选出最佳选项。
B
For most of us, when we were 12 years old, schoolwork and video games may well be our only memories of those days. If we remember guns being pointed at our heads, we think that we must be remembering video games or movies.
Unluckily, at age 12, that was Malala Yousafzai's real life.
Malala lived a quiet life in Pakistan until 2009, when the Taliban, an Islamic organization of violence(暴力) took control of her village. They forbade girls to go to school as groups. They believe that educating girls is against Islam. But Malala didn't agree. She wrote on the BBC site, "We want all girls to get their schools back."
However, her actions put her in danger. On Oct 9, 2012, when Malala was taking a bus a man from the Taliban holding a gun shot her in the head. Luckily, the shot didn't kill her. She was taken to a hospital in the UK, and she gradually recovered.
The shot didn't kill her courage to carry on, either. She set up the Malala Fund, which helped put 40 girls from her former home province in Pakistan into schools.
Malala has become an international symbol of inspiration and bravery, commented BBC News. Her survival has instilled(渗透) educators with courage and is slowly helping make Pakistani schools safer.
Malala said in her speech, "The terrorists(恐怖分子) thought they would change my aims and stop my ambitions. But nothing changed in my life except this: Weakness, fear and hopelessness died. Strength, power and courage were born."
