第一节 语篇翻译 阅读下面的短文,将画线部分译成英文或中文。(共5小题,计10分)

Lots of young people have never experienced home-life. Meals are cooked and clothes are washed as if by magic! 65.我们知道很多孩子不会洗衣做饭。 They don't clean the floor, make the bed or slice(切) the meat. Yes, they have homework but often no housework. But how are you ever going to learn the practical skills you will need in later life if everything is done for you? A change is coming. 66. In China, schools are now thinking about teaching life skills as a subject.

We all need to prepare for real life, especially the housework. 67.我父母拥有这些技能,但他们却忘记教我了。At university, I had to learn to shop, prepare my food and cook meals. I wish my parents or my teachers had taught me all of them before! Now, I feel very confident (有信心的) in running a home. I especially enjoy cooking.

68.Some people might say you can order food or book services online. In fact, good life skills will make you a better student, a better workmate and a better family member in your life. Making a meal needs good planning, skillful cooking, control of temperature and a good nose! It makes you smarter!

All this needs to start early. 69.If you don't have practical life skills, your education will be incomplete. One day, you will wonder why you have no clean socks, and why some of your best friends can cook a delicious meal but you cannot!

答案解析：

65. We know that many children cannot wash clothes or cook meals.考查“know + 宾语从句”结构，“洗衣做饭”用 wash clothes or cook meals(初三核心短语)。

66. 在中国，学校目前正考虑将生活技能设为一门学科。think about doing sth. 译为“考虑做某事”，as a subject 译为“作为一门学科”，符合中文表达习惯。

67. My parents have these skills, but they forgot to teach me .考查“forget to do sth.”(忘记去做某事)，注意“技能”用复数 skills，代词“them”指代前文技能。

68. 有些人可能会说，你可以在网上点外卖或预约服务。order food 译为“点外卖”(生活化表达，贴合语境)，book services 译为“预约服务”。

69. 如果你不具备实用的生活技能，你的教育就是不完整的。practical life skills 译为“实用的生活技能”，incomplete 译为“不完整的”，符合原文逻辑。
