写在前面的话

“ScalersTalk 口译进阶小组” 的前身是 “ScalersTalk 交传小组”，成立于 2015 年 2 月，现阶段，小组继续专注高级阶段的交替传译与同声传译训练，在巩固语言基本功的同时训练各类口译技能，从而为承担正式场合的口译打下坚实基础。 96 周起，小组全面引入 CATTI 新版二口教材的训练，时间为每天晚上 8 点到 9 点，训练期间播放录音、记笔记，在空白处按暂停键后做口译，用 QQ 发群语音，然后对照文档，查找漏译和错译的部分，标出口译时较为困难的词汇和表达，随时发到群里；每天早上 6 点到 7 点训练复述。

本周复盘说明

第 157 周训练材料选自 speech repository 的一系列训练材料，目的在于提升会口译员培训质量。小组成员利用该材料练习了交替传译和限时视译，并学习原文的词汇、表达和句型句式。设备建议：你需要电脑或手机播放音频、手机发送语音。本日志整理的是第 157 周英译汉练习的内容。

第 157 周——知识点整理段落一

Ladies and Gentlemen, My name is Helen Campbell, formerly of DG Interpretation of the European Commission. I am going to talk to you today about pets and the effect of pets on your health. Now I'm British and as you probably know, most British people love animals, and most have pets as well. Usually it will be a dog or a cat, but there is also now a fashion for pythons, many people are buying pythons as pets.

女士们，先生们，我叫海伦·坎贝尔，是欧盟口译司前译员。今天我要谈谈宠物和宠物对健康的影响。我是英国人，你可能知道，大多数英国人都喜欢动物，大多数人也有宠物。通常会是狗或猫，但现在也有一种时尚，很多人都买巨蟒作为宠物。

解析

the DG Interpretation of the European Commission欧盟口译司 there is also now a fashion for pythons：现在也流行养大蟒。 Python：a large tropical snake that kills animals for food by winding itself around them and crushing them（热带地区的）大蟒 there is a fashion for：流行，盛行段落二

Well, whatever the pet might be, we all know that it's comforting when you come home, for example, your dog is waiting for you. And it's good for you to take the dog for a walk. People generally are happy to have these pets, but in fact, it goes a little further than that, because there have been some studies carried out recently that show that owning a pet actually has a very positive effect on your health. People who own pets tend to suffer less than others from headaches, migraines, back pain or depression. They feel generally healthier and they feel fitter for owning that pet, of course, especially if it's a dog, because as I remember, when I was younger, we had a wonderful dog whom I loved very much, but he had to be taken for two very long walks every day. Now you take a dog for a long walk twice a day, maybe for half an hour, and you are probably going to be very fit.

不管养了什么宠物，当你回家的时候，你的狗在等着你，这会让你很欣慰。而且带狗去散步对你有好处。人们一般都很乐意养宠物，但事实上，还有更深层次的原因。最近的一些研究表明，养宠物实际上对健康非常有好处。养宠物的人相对不养的人来说，不太容易会头痛、偏头痛、背痛或抑郁。他们会觉得更健康，如果是养狗的话尤其如此。我记得在我小的时候，我们有一只狗，我非常喜欢它。每天要带它出去散步两次。每天带着狗出去散步两次，时间久一些，也许半个小时，你可能会很健康。

解析

It's comforting for you：对你来说是一种安慰；让你很欣慰。 It goes a little further than that：“Go further than that”直译“直得更远”，此处指“不仅仅如此”。 some studies carried out：carry out some studies 进行的调查 People who own pets tend to suffer less headaches, migraines, back pain or depression： suffer：遭受（苦难）； migraine：偏头痛 feel fitter：fit means strong（强壮的）；someone who is fit is strong and healthy, especially because they exercise regularly （尤因经常锻炼而）健壮的，健康的。段落三

So by and large, owning a pet is going to be good for you. Some people will say yes, but it's quite expensive, in fact. Yes, it is. It costs quite a lot to feed a large dog. And that's true, and that's perhaps the downside. The other thing is, and this is certainly my own case, I travel an awful lot and I live in a flight. And so it would be terribly unfair of me to buy a dog, because I would never be around enough, and I would have to rely on lots of friends to take the poor dog for a walk and to feed it. I can assure you, however, that one of these days, when I do calm down, and stop traveling so much, that would be one of my first thoughts. I think that I can see myself with a very pleasant cocker spaniel as a companion. And I shall take the cocker spaniel for long walks. Pets certainly are a good therapy and a great pleasure to have. Thank you!

所以总的来说，养宠物会对你有好处。有人会说是这样，但养宠物很贵。是的，确实是这样。养一只大狗要花不少钱。这是真的，这或许就是养宠物的缺点。另一个是我自己的情况，我旅行非常频繁，我几乎是住在飞机上。所以，我买一只狗的话，那是非常不公平的，因为我永远不会在它的身边，我必须依靠很多朋友带着这只可怜的狗散步，喂它。然而，我可以向你保证，有一天，当我静下来，停止频繁旅行的时候，养宠物将是我最初的想法之一。我想我可以看到自己与一只开心的可卡犬作伴。我将带着它长时间散步。宠物当然是一个很好的治疗方法，能够拥有宠物也是很开心的事情。谢谢！

解析

by and large：大体上来说，总体而言。 downside：a disadvantage of a situation不利的一面，不利因素 a good therapy：宠物当然是一个很好的治疗方法 cocker spaniel 可卡犬
