一个人的生命究竟有多大意义,这有什么标准可以衡量吗?提出一个绝对的标准当然很困难:但是,大体上看一个人对待生命的态度是否严肃认真,看他对待工作、生活的态度如何,也就不难对这个人的存在意义做出适当的估计了。 古来一切有成就的人,都很严肃地对待自己的生

问题     一个人的生命究竟有多大意义,这有什么标准可以衡量吗?提出一个绝对的标准当然很困难:但是,大体上看一个人对待生命的态度是否严肃认真,看他对待工作、生活的态度如何,也就不难对这个人的存在意义做出适当的估计了。
    古来一切有成就的人,都很严肃地对待自己的生命,当他活着一天,总要尽量多工作、多学习,不肯虚度年华,不让时间自白地浪费掉。我国历代的劳动人民以及大政治家、大思想家等等都莫不如此。

选项

答案 What is the significance of life? Are there any criteria for its measurement? Difficult as it is to advance an absolute standard, it is not so hard to form a sound evaluation of the very meaning of a person’s existence by roughly judging his attitude towards life, work and etc. Throughout the ages, all people of accomplishment took their lives seriously. As long as they were alive, they devoted themselves to more work and study and would not let a single minute slip by in vain. And the same is true of the common laboring people as well as the great statesmen and thinkers in our country over the centuries.

解析 1、第1段为评论性文字,故宜采用一般现在时;第2段追述历史,以古证今,故应转换成过去时。
2、第1段第1句的第1个分句虽非一个独立的问句,但若将其单独译为问句,则与第2个分句形成连续发问的效果,发人深思。
3、第2段第1句较长,可译为两句。“不肯…”可译为would not…;“古来”,亦即“古往今来”之意,可译成Throughout the ages或Throughout the history,“严肃地对待”可译成take…seriously。
4、第2段第2句的“莫不如此”译为the same is true of。
