Part B
　　Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2.

　　That low moaning sound in the background just might be the Founding Fathers protesting from beyond the grave. They have been doing it ever since the Republicans announced a "religious war" in the name of "traditional values". It grew several decibels¹ louder last week when George Bush, at a breakfast of religious leaders, attacked the Democrats² for failing to mention God in their doctrines³ and declaimed that a President needs to believe in the Almighty⁴. What about the constitutional ban on "religious tests". for public office? The Founding Fathers would want to know. (61) What about Tom Jefferson's conviction that it is possible for a nonbeliever to be a moral person, "find incitements to virtue⁵ in the comfort and pleasantness you feel in its exercise"? Even George Washington must shudder⁶ in his sleep to hear the constant emphasis on "Judeo-Christian⁷ values". (62) It was he who wrote, "We have abundant reason to rejoice that in this Land … every person may here worship God according to the dictates⁸ of his own heart." George Bush should know better than to encourage the theocratic⁹ ambitions of the Christian right. (63) He has claimed —— to much ironic¹⁰ scorn —— that when he was shot down during World War II and lay floating in the Pacific for four hours, he meditated¹¹ on "God and faith and the separation of church and state". But there could be no better themes for a patriot¹² to address in his final moments. (64) The "wall of separation" the Founding Fathers built between church and state is one of the best defenses freedom has ever had. Or have we already forgotten why the Founding fathers put it up? They had seen enough religious intolerance in the colonies: Quaker women were burned at the stake in Puritan Massachusetts; Virginians could be jailed for denying the Bible's authority. They knew Europe had terribly disfigured itself in a religious war recalled now only by its duration —— 30 years. (65) No wonder John Adams once described the Judeo-Christian tradition as "the most bloody¹³ religion that ever existed," and that the Founding fathers took such pains to keep the hand that holds the musket¹⁴ separate from the one that carries the cross.

　　【参考答案】

　　One possible version: Whatever one does, one should do it with confidence. If one has no confidence, there is little possibility that one can achieve anything when faced with hardships. This truth seems to be self-evident. In reality, however, we do see a lot of people who always complain that they lack the ability to do something or that their difficulties are too great to overcome. For some, this might be true. But for the others, this only shows that they have lost heart. Why do some people often feel frustrated¹⁵ even though they are capable of doing something? I think there are two main reasons. In the first place, these people don't have a proper evaluation¹⁶ of themselves. They tend to underestimate their capabilities¹⁷. Secondly¹⁸, it is possible that they exaggerate the difficulties. In my opinion, one can build up confidence by oneself as long as he has a right attitude towards his own abilities. We should neither underestimate nor overestimate¹⁹ our abilities. Try to find your advantages and that is OK. As a proverb says, "Where there is a will, there is a way." With confidence we can certainly cope with any task we are faced with.
