2016年6月英語六級翻譯考前預測試題(7)

　　普通話中國的官方語言普通話在美國的學校中突然熱起來。由于中國經(jīng)濟在21世紀的快速發(fā)展，美國的公立和私立學校紛紛在外語課程中加入漢語這一科目，或將已有的漢語教學項目進行擴展。據(jù)統(tǒng)計，在美國的學校中，有5萬名孩子在學習漢語。但推動漢語項目的發(fā)展不是沒有遇到困難。由于缺乏受過專業(yè)訓練、持有證書的教師，一些學校很難加入漢語教學的競爭。當學校聘用教師時，它們通常直接從中國招聘，這種方式為文化沖突埋下了隱患

　　【精彩譯文】Mandarin, the official language of China, is suddenly hot in American schools. With the rapid development of China’s economy in the 21th century, both public and private schools in America are scrambling to add Mandarin to their curricula of foreign languages or expandingChinese language programs already in place. By some estimates, as many as 50 000 children nationwide are taking Mandarinin American schools. To develop Chinese-language programs has met some difficulties. A shortage of professionally trained teachers with certificates has madeit difficult for some schools to join the competition. When schools need to employ teachers, they often recruit them fromChina directly, which is a hidden trouble for culture clash.
