2018年5月CATTI二级笔译实务真题
Passage 2
India's Education Dream Risks Remaining Just That
At one of the better colleges in India's capital, there is just one large room for 140 faculty members to sit and have a cup of tea or grade papers. "If even half show up, there aren't enough chairs," said Ghazala Amin, a history professor there. "There is no other place to work. In this situation, how do you expect teachers to work?"
The lack of amenities for faculty members is not the only issue. After 30 years at Jesus and Mary College, which is one of dozens administered by the University of Delhi, Ms. Amin makes the equivalent of $22,000 a year — less than half of what some of her better students will make in their first jobs. New opportunities offer not just more money for graduates but also mobility and flexibility, which are virtually unheard of for faculty at most of India's colleges and universities.
All this means that India is facing a severe shortage of faculty members. But it is not just low pay and lack of facilities that are being blamed. According to a government report published last year, a massive expansion in higher education combined with a poor supply of Ph.D.'s, delays in recruitment and the lack of incentives to attract and nurture talent has led to a situation in which 40 percent of existing faculty positions remain vacant. The report's authors, mostly academics, found that if the shortfall is calculated using the class size recommended by the government, this figure jumps to 54 percent.
Experts say this is the clearest sign that India will fail to meet the goal set by the education minister, who has pledged to more than double the size of the country's higher education system by 2020. They say that while the ambition is laudable, the absence of a long-term strategy to develop faculty will ensure that India's education dream remains just that.
Mr. Balakrishnan of India Institute of Technology in Delhi, meanwhile, was more optimistic. He felt India could enroll as much as 25 percent of eligible students in colleges and universities — about twice the current figure — by 2020. "Tangible changes are happening," he said. "The debate that has happened in the last few years has taken people out of their comfort zones. There is more consensus across the board that we need to scale quality education."

2018年5月CATTI二级笔译参考答案
Passage 2 E-C
印度的教育梦想依旧原地踏步(也许仅是一场梦)
在印度首都条件较好的一所高校里,仅有一间大房间供140名教职工坐下来喝杯茶或者批改试卷使用。该校的历史学教授加扎拉·阿敏说,“哪怕是只有一半教职工一起来上班,这里的椅子就不够用了。没有地方办公,就这种情况,你指望老师们如何工作呢?”
缺少为教职工提供的基础设施并非唯一问题。耶稣和玛丽学院是德里大学下属的数十所院校之一;在这工作了三十年的阿敏女士年薪仅22,000美元,这甚至不及她教过的优秀学生毕业后第一份工作的一半年薪。新的机遇为毕业生提供的不仅是更高的薪酬,而且还有职业流动性和灵活性;但是这些对于大多数印度高校的教职工来说,几乎闻所未闻。
