浅谈《英语课程标准》中值得商榷的两大问题 peasant family. He has invented a new type of water-wheel. 　　The story of the two boys has attracted attention far and wide. Millions of men, women and children in the countryside are trying to invent new farm tools. 　　The Communist Party is guiding this mass movement. It tells the people that science is no mystery. 　　问题: 　　1. How old are the two boys? 　　2. Has the elder boy had a middle school education? 　　3. What are millions of people doing in the countryside? 　　4. What does the Communist Party tell the people? 　　Ⅱ.英译汉(共8题,每题5分,40%) 　　将下列句子译成汉语,要求译文字句通顺,意义明确,忠实于原文的内容,不必拘泥原文的形式。 　　1.Our parents teach us to love labor. 　　2.The October Revolution brought Marxism-Leninism to China. 　　3.My mother asked why the soldiers of the Peoples Liberation Army are so polite and kind to people. 　　4.A lot has been done by the government to improve the peoples life since liberation. 　　5.Modern Chinese literature is part of the progressive literature of the world. 　　6.As soon as I got off the bus, I started for the village on foot. 　　7.On the second morning of the harvest I went to the field, where I found everyone already at work. 　　8.The city is changing: New houses are going up and the streets are becoming more and more beautiful. 　　Ⅲ.汉译英(共8题,每题5分,40%) 　　1.全世界人民爱好和平。 　　2.你现在正在干什么? 　　3.一年里有多少个月? 　　4.第五课比第三课难。 　　5.他去年参加了共产主义青年团。 　　6.我去看他的时候,他正在写信。 　　7.他父亲是工人,他母亲是教员。 　　8.李同志昨天不能来,因为他必须准备功课。 　　――《英语高考应试要览》?科学普及出版社?北京?1981年 　　从上题可以看出,实际教学远远没有达到大纲规定的词汇量,所以修订大纲时对词汇量的要求减少了。文革后的大纲把词汇量定为2000左右,但实际的教学效果确要好于文革前。 　　王蔷的文章认为:“词汇量要求偏低,学生难以形成有效的听说读写技能。”那么,到底要多少词汇量才能形成听说读写的基本语言交际能力?据说,“一个英国人日常口语中常用的词不过1000个,但他们所要表达的东西却是非常丰富的。美国之音的特别英语节目(“Voice of America special English program”)仅用1500个基本词汇来表达国际上发生的任何事,而且非常准确及时。”《朗文初阶英汉双解词典》“利用1600个常用单词解释所有单词的词义,清楚简明,便于学习”。前苏联学者茨维特科娃编著的《英语最低限度词汇》共收录2688个词汇,作者认为,掌握了这些词,就可以阅读中等程度的英文书籍,《英语常用词汇》(高名?、刘正?合编)也把英语最常用词汇定为2108个,他们认为“这些词是学习英语的人想要初步阅读中等程度的英语原文或用浅显的英语表达思想感情所必须掌握的。”。 1
