【試題來(lái)源】:

原文選自2017年3月16日，由Saba Khalid發(fā)表在雜志Blinklist上的文章，題目是Why Bill Gates Reads 50 Books A Year(And How You Can Too!)出題人對(duì)原文有略有改編。

【真題原文】：

46.Directions：

Translate the following text from English into Chinese. Write your translation on ANSWER SHEET. (15 points)

A fifth grader gets a homework assignment to select his future career path from a list of occupations. He ticks “astronaut” but quickly adds “scientist” to the list and selects it as well. The boy is convinced that if he reads enough, he can explore as many career paths as he likes. And so he reads—everything from encyclopedias to science fiction novels. He reads so passionately that his parents have to institute a “no reading policy” at the dinner table.

That boy was Bill Gates, and he hasn’t stopped reading yet—not even after becoming one of the most successful people on the planet. Nowadays, his reading material has changed from science fiction and reference books: recently, he revealed that he reads at least 50 nonfiction books a year. Gates chooses nonfiction titles because they explain how the world works. “Each book opens up new avenues of knowledge to explore”, Gates says.

【真題譯文】：

一個(gè)五年級(jí)的學(xué)生收到一份家庭作業(yè)：即從一系列職業(yè)中選擇自己未來(lái)的職業(yè)道路。他勾劃了“宇航員”，但很快由將“科學(xué)家”添加到列表中，并也將其選中。這個(gè)男孩相信，如果他讀得足夠多，他就可以探索盡可能多的他喜歡的職業(yè)道路。所以他讀書(shū)廣泛——從百科全書(shū)到科幻小說(shuō)。他讀得如此投入，以至于他的父母不得不制定一個(gè)：在餐桌上的“不讀書(shū)政策”。

那個(gè)男孩就是比爾蓋茨，他沒(méi)有停止閱讀，甚至在他成為這個(gè)星球上最成功的人士之一后，仍舊沒(méi)有停下來(lái)。現(xiàn)在，他的閱讀材料已經(jīng)不再是科幻小說(shuō)和工具書(shū)了：最近據(jù)他所說(shuō)，他一年內(nèi)至少讀了50本非科幻小說(shuō)。比爾蓋茨選擇非科幻小說(shuō)類(lèi)書(shū)籍，是因?yàn)檫@類(lèi)書(shū)籍解釋了世界是如何運(yùn)作的。“每本書(shū)都開(kāi)辟了新的知識(shí)探索渠道。”蓋茨說(shuō)。
