问题     The translator must have an excellent, up-to-date knowledge of his 【B1】______ languages, flail facility in the handling of his target language, which will be his mother tongue or language of habitual 【B2】______, and a knowledge and understanding of the【B3】______subject-matter in his field of specialization. That is, as it 【B4】______ his professional equipment. 【B5】______ this, it is desirable that he should have an 【B6】______ mind, wide interests, a good memory and the ability to grasp quickly the basic principles of new developments. He should be willing to work 【B7】______ his own, often at high speeds, but should be humble enough to consult others【B8】______his own knowledge not always prove adequate to the task【B9】______. He should be able to type fairly quickly and accurately and, if he is working mainly for publication, should have more than a nodding【B10】______with printing techniques and proof-reading.
    If he is working basically as an information translator, let us say, for an industrial firm, he should have the flexibility of mind to enable him to【B11】______rapidly from one source to another, since this ability is frequently 【B12】______ of him in such work. Bearing in mind the nature of the translator’ s work. i.e. the processing of the written word, it is, strictly speaking,【B13】______that he should be able to speak the languages he is dealing with. If he does speak them, it is an advantage【B14】______a hindrance, but this skill is in many ways a luxury that he can【B15】______with. It is,【B16】______, desirable that he should have an approximate idea about the pronunciation of his source languages even if this is restricted to【B17】______how proper names and place names are pronounced. The same【B18】______to an ability to write his source languages. If he cannot, it does not【B19】______. There are many other skills and【B20】______that are derirable in a translator.
【B20】
选项 A、characteristics
B、qualities
C、distinctions
D、features
答案B
解析 考查名词辨析。qualities可以表示“(人拥有的)素质；品质”，在此处指作为一名译者所需要的“(职业)素质”，故B．qualities最符合文意。characteristics表示显著的、能帮助突出人或东西特征的“特色”：distinctions表示“不同之处，差别，荣誉”；features也可以表示“特征，特色”，但用于人的时候一般指“面部特征”，均不符题意。
