Passage Translation 1Spending your vacation in a foreign country is horrible. First, you have to start early and become increasingly anxious with each passing day. When everything is OK and you really set off，you may find yourself in a car for hours. It is hot and you’re thirsty. And finally when you arrive at your destination, you’re in a strange place with strange people around. You’re confused and lost. You may be a little curious or a little excited, but as a matter of fact, very, very tired.
答案
参考答案： 【参考译文】国外度假可不是什么美事。首先，你不得不早早准备起来，同时焦虑感与日俱增。等一切搞定、真正出发时，路途又得耗上好几个小时。又热又渴的你，最终总算到了目的地，可身处异乡，周围全是陌生人，你又困惑又迷茫，也可能有那么一点儿好奇与兴奋，事实是，你已经筋疲力尽了。
解析： 【点评】本篇短文指出了去国外旅行的一些不便之处。文章以口头语为主，较为简单。在翻译过程中，需要注意的是，英语口头语中大量的you，应灵活处理。不一定处处都要把这一人称代词翻进来，使得整个语段生硬。
