2018上半年翻譯考試catti三級筆譯試題：中國節(jié)能燈
漢譯英
1882 年中國第一盞電燈在上海點亮，這使得中國逐漸告別了油燈和蠟燭照明的歷史，當時使用的電燈就是白熾燈，這一用就是 130 年，中國也成為白熾燈的生產(chǎn)和消費大國。早在 1996 年，中國就啟動實施了“綠色照明工程”，中國綠色照明工程的實施，推動了照明電器行業(yè)結(jié)構(gòu)的優(yōu)化升級和產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量的整體提升，經(jīng)過多年努力，中國節(jié)能燈產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量水平日益提高，一些企業(yè)產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量和工藝水平已達到世界領(lǐng)先水平。高效照明產(chǎn)品及技術(shù)的日益成熟為逐步淘汰白熾燈提供了重要保障。
中國節(jié)能燈的全球市場占有率由 1996 年的 20%提高到 2010 年的 85%。即使遇到豐收年景，對中國來說，要用世界百分之七的耕地養(yǎng)活全球五分之一的人口仍是一項艱巨的任務(wù)。

As such, China has emerged as a leading producer and consumer of incandescents in the world.

The environment-friendly/eco-sensitive/responsible move/endeavor has served to upgrade the mix of China‟s lighting industry and elevate the overall quality of lighting products. Thanks to years of strong commitments, energy-saving/energy-efficient lamps made in China have moved up the value chain in both quality and workmanship, with some ranking among the best in the world. The ever-improving products and technologies for energy-efficient lighting have made it possible to phase out energy-intensive incandescents in the country./put an end to …
In 2010, 85% of energy-saving lamps available on the global market were made in China, as against merely 20% back in 1996. China‟s global market share in the energy-saving light space surged from a to b between 1996 and 2010.
In 2010, China accounted for 85% of global supply of energy-saving lamps, a surge from 20% in 1996.
