第一部分 英譯漢
It took nine years from the time the Danish and Swedish governments agreed to build a fixed link between their countries to the time the first car, train, truck and bicyclists crossed the Oresund Bridge.
Construction of the bridge, including design and cornerstone, began in March 1991 and was completed in July 2000. Today, it is the longest stone-stayed road and rail bridge in the world. At approximately 10 miles (16 kilometers), including the tunnel, it is an engineering and architectural marvel. But as time has proven, the bridge is a cultural and economic boon as well. The sleek span of concrete whose design typifies Scandinavian minimalism has contributed greatly to the development of the Oresund region: the eastern part of Denmark, including Copenhagen, and the southwestern part of Sweden, including Malmö and Lund.
The level of commuting between Malmö and Copenhagen has quadrupled since the opening of the bridge in 2000, and the number of Danes moving to the south of Sweden has increased sixfold. The Oresund region has become a cultural and economic powerhouse, considered a model region by the European Union.
Work on the bridge began in 1995, and was undertaken by a team of international consulting and construction companies.
From the beginning, construction of the bridge complied with some of the world’s toughest environmental regulations, as well as many advanced design and construction details. The Mexico-based CEMEX, one of the world’s largest producers of Cement and ready-mix concrete, was awarded a contract to deliver tons of high-quality cement to help build the main part of the bridge, the two approach bridges and the tunnel.
When it opened in July 2000, the Oresund Bridge consisted of a 3.5-kilometer immersed tunnel, the largest of its kind in the world, a 4-kilometer long artificial island (made from mud dug out from the bottom of strait to make space for the tunnel) and a 7.8-kilometer cable-stayed bridge, the world’s longest bridge including both a highway and a railroad.
Though just half of the total construction, the actual bridge span, is visible above water, the overall architecture was designed to please the eye from both the Danish and Swedish sides of the strait.
The four 204-meter (670 feet) tall pillars carrying the bridge have a simple Scandinavian design. To drivers and passengers crossing the bridge, the pillars provide a visual, as well as actual, impression of stability and calm.
The two-level structure is made of steel and concrete. Along tile two approach bridges, tracks are piaced in concrete troughs that turn into steel decks on the bridge. The bridge’s upper deck carries cars and trucks, while the lower deck accommodates the railroad. The four pillars are grounded in giant cement boxes placed at the bottom of the strait, about 18 meters below sea level.
Last year, an average of 13,600 vehicles and 17,000 passengers crossed the bridge everyday, and traffic continues to increase by 10-20 percent every year.
Throughout the construction process, the Danish and Swedish environmental agencies have surveyed but found no changes in the wildlife, birds, fish and vegetation surrounding the bridge. In addition, the chemicals used in construction and the percentage of waste materials have been kept to a minimum, as required by both Danish and Swedish laws.
In 2003, the Oresund Bridge won the IABSE (International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering) Outstanding Structural Award for its innovative design, planning and construction management, as well as its strict compliance with the time schedule, budget and environmental requirements.
第二部分 漢譯英
能源是人類社會(huì)賴以生存和發(fā)展的重要物質(zhì)基礎(chǔ)??v觀人類社會(huì)發(fā)展的歷史,人類文明的每一次重大進(jìn)步都伴隨著能源的改進(jìn)和更替。能源的開發(fā)利用極大地推進(jìn)了世界經(jīng)濟(jì)和人類社會(huì)的發(fā)展。
過(guò)去100多年里,發(fā)達(dá)國(guó)家先后完成了工業(yè)化,消耗了地球上大量的自然資源,特別是能源資源。當(dāng)前,一些發(fā)展中國(guó)家正在步入工業(yè)化階段,能源消費(fèi)增加是經(jīng)濟(jì)社會(huì)發(fā)展的客觀必然。
中國(guó)是當(dāng)今世界上最大的發(fā)展中國(guó)家,發(fā)展經(jīng)濟(jì),擺脫貧困,是中國(guó)政府和中國(guó)人民在相當(dāng)長(zhǎng)一段時(shí)期內(nèi)的主要任務(wù)。20世紀(jì)70年代末以來(lái),中國(guó)作為世界上發(fā)展最快的發(fā)展中國(guó)家,經(jīng)濟(jì)社會(huì)發(fā)展取得了舉世矚目的輝煌成就,成功地開辟了中國(guó)特色社會(huì)主義道路,為世界的發(fā)展和繁榮作出了重大貢獻(xiàn)。
中國(guó)是目前世界上第二位能源生產(chǎn)國(guó)和消費(fèi)國(guó)。能源供應(yīng)持續(xù)增長(zhǎng),為經(jīng)濟(jì)社會(huì)發(fā)展提供了重要的支撐。能源消費(fèi)的快速增長(zhǎng),為世界能源市場(chǎng)創(chuàng)造了廣闊的發(fā)展空間。中國(guó)已經(jīng)成為世界能源市場(chǎng)不可或缺的重要組成部分,對(duì)維護(hù)全球能源安全,正在發(fā)揮著越來(lái)越重要的積極作用。
