【F1】
When Bush asked Cheney, the head of his vice presidential search team, to actually become his running mate, it was clear that he valued Cheney’s Washington experience above all.
"If times are good, I’m going to need your advice," Bush told Cheney, "but not nearly as much as if times are bad. Crisis management is an essential part of the job. " Cheney went on to become the most powerful vice President in history. He was, for example, "a steamroller in pushing war with Iraq as the only way to deal with Saddam Hussein," Woodward reports.
The DNC’s Dean says, "The most dreadful decision he made that hurt him the most was picking Dick Cheney as his running mate. " He adds that "Cheney became a huge influence and that led to a lot of other bad decisions. " High on Dean’s list of negatives was Cheney’s convincing Bush that " once you are elected, you can do whatever you want" regardless of the law and the Constitution, an echo of Zelizer’s analysis about the expansion of executive power.
【F2】
Dean’s assessment may be a little exaggerating, but there is no doubt that Cheney was a powerful force pushing the new president to expand his powers.
【F3】
Cheney also was a strong voice for conservative policies such as tax cuts, measures to promote business, and proposals to allow more domestic energy production.
【F4】
Bush’s defenders say Cheney was vital, especially in the early years, in guiding the new president through the puzzle of foreign policy, national security, and domestic issues.
Bush had little hands-on experience as a Washington insider. Cheney, by contrast, had been White House chief of staff under President Gerald Ford, a U. S. representative from Wyoming, and defense secretary under President George H. W. Bush. Whether Cheney was given too much power will be debated by historians for decades.
【F5】
As his days in office decrease, Bush, 62, finds himself looking ahead to retirement with mixed feelings, as most Presidents do.
He plans to write a book and run his presidential library and policy center at Southern Methodist University. But he told ABC: "I’m going to have a lot of time to think. My day is going to go from getting up early—early and being at the Oval Office at 6:45 a. m. , and having a lot to do when you get there, to waking up at 6:45 a.m. , getting Momma the coffee—and kind of wandering around trying—’What’s next, boss? ’ " His friends say his new mission is already clear. He will continue his bid to place the Bush legacy, now widely seen as unpopular and misguided, in the best possible light and to put a positive spin on all the fateful decisions he made as America’s 43 rd President.
【F5】
选项
答案
布什,今年62岁,他在总统职位上的时间越来越少了。正如其他多数总统一样,他发现自己在为退休以后的生活规划时百感交集。
解析
这句话结构不算复杂,主句是Bush finds himself looking…主句前面有一个as引导的时间状语从句,后面各有一个as引导的方式状语从句,汉语习惯把状语放到主句之前,所以翻译时要调整语序,此外,如果主句和从句的主语一样,英语习惯主句的主语用名词,而从句用代词替代,即使从句放到句首也是一样,但汉语的表达习惯刚好与之相反。综上所述,翻译时把第一个as引导的时间状语从句单译成一句话,并且主语用名词,然后把原文中的主句和从句合并成一句话,并且把as引导的从句放到主句之前翻译。
