历时两个月时间的“第二届上海口译风采大赛”已经圆满落幕，我很高兴全程参与了整个赛事。回首本届赛程，与2005年首届大赛相比，至少拥有两大亮点：

其一：为了能让更多的学生有机会参与到赛事中来，本届大赛史无前例地在全市范围内设立了“十大赛区”，在30多所高校同时展开了赛事活动。

整个大赛不仅囊括了北大、复旦，交大，同济，上外、财大、华师大等多所中国知名高校，还包括了来自美国华盛顿大学、澳大利亚悉尼大学等顶尖高校的国际选手，同时杨浦，闵行，松江、南汇、奉贤等知名大学城更是全程参与。最终共有来自全国各省市的737口译高手参与了大赛，年龄最大的选手45岁，最小的只有12岁，体现出新东方口译一贯的豪迈风格。

其二：在初赛环节中，采用了时下风靡的“海选”。

整个流程简化为5分钟的“个人展示+中英对译”，既给选手充分展示风采的舞台，又能留给更多选手参赛的机会。而在后面的地区决赛和总决赛中，更有着各类精彩环节等待优秀选手的挑战。譬如经典影视配音环节，以经典的华语电影片断为素材，由参赛选手现场直接翻译成英语对白，这对选手的口译能力，速记功底和语音语调都有着极高的要求。此外，紧张刺激的复活环节，挑战极限的同声翻译，无不体现着主办方的精心设计。

第二届上海口译风采大赛总决赛“英译中部分”：

1. Our economy is doing really well. The internal mechanism for economic growth has been strengthened. We have, to a large extent, struck the right balance between speed, quality and economic benefit. But it is also clear to us that there are no countries in the world that can perpetuate an economic boom and high-speed growth. China won’t be an exception.

参考答案：

当前我国经济发展势头良好，经济增长的内在机制不断增强，基本做到了速度、质量和效益的统一。但是我们也要清醒地看到，世界上还没有一个国家的经济发展长盛不衰，永远保持高速度。中国也不可能例外。

2. The achievements of the reform have been there for all to see. But, as the economic climate changes, there are now new problems.

All of them require our immediate attention and effective solutions in the shortest time possible.

参考答案：

改革开放取得的成就是有目共睹的，但是，随着经济形势的变化，又出现了一些新的矛盾和问题。比如，国企改革问题、大量失业和待业问题、两极分化问题、腐败问题、金融风险问题、生态环境破坏问题等。这些问题都需要我们高度重视，尽快找到有效的解决办法。

3. Personally, I believe China needs to pay attention to the following areas. One, we must provide guidance more forcefully using economic and legal means in the property development market, to restrict blind development in up-market properties, and to promote the construction of economical and practical properties. Two, must monitor international as well as domestic economic development closely so as to be able to respond quickly.
