English to Chinese: If you want to see where America is heading, start by studying Texas 想要知道美国的走向，从了解德州开始吧 General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Journalism
Source text - English For all that, you know you're in Texas when you're in Texas. From Austin's swanky Driskill hotel, whose bar seats are made of cowhide and walls are decorated with images of cowboys and wagon trains, to the grotty border towns, where Mexicanos walk around in ten-gallon hats; from the high-rises of Dallas, where businessmen wear cowboy boots and string ties, to the 100,000-acre (40,500-hectare) ranches where ranchers use small aircraft to visit neighbours, there is something utterly distinctive about the place. In the land of the bland, Texas retains its unique flavour.
Translation - Chinese 尽管如此，当身处德州时，你依然能感受到就是德州。从奥斯汀市豪华的Driskill酒店,店中吧台椅用牛皮制成，墙用各式牛仔的画像和马车队来装饰，到一些破败不堪的边界城市，那里能看到四处走动的戴着宽边高呢帽的墨西哥人；从高楼林立的达拉斯，城里商人们穿牛仔靴，打蝶形领结，到面积达10万英亩（合四万零五百公顷）的大牧场，农场主们开着小飞机到邻居家串门。德州有完全与众不同的地方。在这片平淡无奇的土地上，德州始终保持着自己独特的风味。
English to Chinese: Fracking in Australia 澳洲水力压裂法开采现状 General field: Tech/Engineering Detailed field: Mining & Minerals / Gems
Source text - English Fracking involves pumping water, sand and chemicals to fracture the coal seams and bring their mixture of gas and saline water to the surface. Not all coal seams need fracking to make gas flow. Critics charge, though, that fracking can contaminate adjacent groundwater that farmers and townsfolk need. More worrying, high-quality water can be lost from aquifers as it seeps into fracked coal seams.
Translation - Chinese 水力压裂法是用高压将水、沙及化学物质打入地下煤层使之产生裂缝，再将其与燃气的混合物及咸水抽出地面的一种方法。并非所有的煤层都必须用水力压裂法采气。不过，批评人士指出水力压裂法会污染开采区域周围的地下水，这些水是供城乡居民使用的。更让人担忧的是，用此法开采时产生的煤层裂缝会让高品质的水资源从蓄水层流失掉。
English to Chinese: America’s JOBS Act 美国JOBS法案 General field: Law/Patents Detailed field: Law (general)
Source text - English America has more than its fair share of those. From Sarbanes-Oxley to Dodd-Frank, policymakers have responded to crisis and scandal with ever more strictures on accounting, auditing, pay, governance and Wall Street research. Some of this was needed to make markets work better. By bolstering investors’ confidence in the marketplace, regulation can help companies raise capital. But too many new rules impose costs that exceed their benefits: the intensive review of internal controls required by Sarbanes-Oxley is one example among many.
Translation - Chinese 美国这方面的法规过多了。从萨班斯奥克斯利法案到多德-弗兰克法案，决策者们根据出现的各类财务危机和丑闻，针对会计、审计、薪资、公司管理及华尔街的市场研究均制定出了更加严厉的管制政策。其中一部分规定是形成良性市场所必需的，有了这些规定，投资者们的市场信心增强了，各企业因而成功募资。但是新规过多，执行起来付出的成本大于收益，如萨班斯奥克斯利法案要求对企业内部控制的彻底审查即为其中一例。
English to Chinese: Academic publishing 学术出版 General field: Tech/Engineering Detailed field: Printing & Publishing
Source text - English PUBLISHING obscure academic journals is that rare thing in the media industry: a licence to print money. An annual subscription to Tetrahedron, a chemistry journal, will cost your university library $20,269; a year of the Journal of Mathematical Sciences will set you back $20,100. In 2011 Elsevier, the biggest academic-journal publisher, made a profit of £768m ($1.2 billion) on revenues of £2.1 billion. Such margins (37%, up from 36% in 2010) are possible because the journals’ content is largely provided free by researchers, and the academics who peer-review their papers are usually unpaid volunteers. The journals are then sold to the very universities that provide the free content and labour. For publicly funded research, the result is that the academics and taxpayers who were responsible for its creation have to pay to read it. This is not merely absurd and unjust; it also hampers education and research.
Translation - Chinese 出版晦涩难懂的学术期刊相当于拿到了印钞许可证，这在传媒产业里是很少见的。大学图书馆要订阅一年期名为《四面体快报》（Tetrahedron）的化学期刊需花费20269美元；订阅一年期《数学科学杂志》（Journal of Mathematical Sciences）则要耗费20100美元。世界最大的学术期刊出版社爱思唯尔（Elsevier）2011年的营业额为21亿英镑，盈利7.68亿英镑（合12亿美元）。获得如此利润率（37%，2010年为36%）是有可能的，因为这类期刊的内容大部分是由研究人员免费提供的，而且对论文进行同行评审的学者通常也是不拿报酬的自愿者，出版的期刊随后又售往这些免费提供论文及人力的院校。就公共资助性研究而言，其结果却是作为缔造者的学者兼纳税人必须为阅读自己的成果买单。这不仅荒谬不公，而且也妨碍教育和研究。
