⑴将以下段降译为汉语（25分）
The elections in France and Greece tell us that austerity fatigue has set in. This is not surprising. For many countries no plausible exit exists from depression, deflation and despair. If the currency union were a normal fixed exchange rate arrangement, it would collapse, as did the gold standard in the 1930s and the Bretton Woods system in the 1970s. The question is whether the fact that it is a monetary union will do more than delay that outcome. Mr.Hollande says his mission is to give Europe “a dimension of growth and prosperity”. So can he achieve this laudable aim?
Fiscal tightening does not improve outcomes in shrinking economies. Thus, austerity is merely begetting more austerity. According to IMF, the ratio of gross public debt to gross domestic product will rise, not fall, in every year from 2008 to 2013 in Ireland, Italy, Spain and Portugal. It will briefly fall in Greece, but only because of its debt restructuring. The IMF forecasts that the economy will shrink this year, in real terms, and growth is forecast, optimistically, at close to zero in these countries in 2013. This is politically perilous. The emergence of still more extremist parties and a rising sense of betrayal seems inevitable. （206）
⑵将以下随笔译为汉语（50分）
The massive new U.S. oil and gas output has brought talk of American energy independence back into vogue. Just five years ago, the experts were bracing for the United States to become dependent on imported liquefied natural gas, with uncertain geopolitical consequences, such as dependence on vulnerable Middle Eastern suppliers and entanglement in a global gas market in which Moscow plays a troubling role. That now seems like ancient history, as record gas production has spared the United States the need for large-scale imports.
The math is shakier when it comes to oil. The most bullish projections foresee around 15 million barrels a day of U.S. liquid fuels production by 2020, while the consultancy Wood MacKenzie claims that U.S. production could rise to about 10 million barrels a day by the close of this decade and 15 million before the end of the next. In any case, U.S. consumption is vastly greater. As of 2009, Americans burned through nearly 19 million barrels of oil-based liquid fuels each day to power their cars, trucks, and factories, and although that figure has edged down over the past couple of years, domestic supply is still a long way from matching U.S. Demand.
That said, U.S. demand for oil appears to have peaked. While part of the recent fall can be chalked up to slow economic growth, sustained high oil prices and improving automobile technology are also at work. New fuel- economy standards, if they stick, could drive U.S. consumption down much further. Ultimately, though, it’s a massive stretch to think the United States will eliminate the gap between oil supply and demand anytime soon.
In any case, energy independence requires more than impressive arithmetic. As long as the United States is fully integrated into the world oil market, U.S. fuel prices will rise and fall along with events on the other side of the globe — say, a war with Iran. (316)

中国将初终没有渝走跟仄展开阶梯，摆荡奉止独破自主的跟仄交际政策。我们辨别保护国度主权、战仄、展开益处，决没有会服从于任何中往压力。我们按照变乱自己的少短直直决意本人的破场跟政策，秉启公允，舒展公理。中国主见跟仄措置处奖国际争端跟热面成绩，拦截动辄诉诸武力或以武力相威胁，拦截颠覆别国开法政权，拦截统统形势的可怕主义。中国将以愈减积极的姿式减进国际事务，阐扬背义务大年夜国做用，与列国国仄易远配开应问齐球性搬弄。（197）
⑷将以下随笔译为英语（50分）
我们收明，减班成绩是统统工场经暂以往组成的风尚，连工人们皆认为挨工便是要减班的。而减班是工场正在没有删减出产设备跟野生资源的前提下删减出产才气的最好阶梯。比如，正在东莞常仄镇某服拆厂，每个月只需13万挨的出产才气，但工场却接了25万挨的出产订单。出产任务宽重逾越出产才气的状况，使减班成绩变得无可拦阻，而且有愈演愈烈的恰恰背。跟着订单代价的降降跟交货期的延长，工人的减班状况也愈减宽重。而我们拜访深圳祸田区的一个电子厂的工人，竟然有84小时持尽工做的记真，很多工人果为膂力没有支，而晕倒正在车间。减班成绩真践上曾成为陵犯工人身段健康跟开法权益的大年夜成绩，正在各品种型的公营、中资企业中均遍及存正在。(290)
