    　　II. Passage translation
        Section A Chinese to English
    When scientists evaluate the connection between tornados and climate
change, there are really two big questions they’re asking: First, are the 2011
tornadoes part of a trend? Has tornado activity changed along with rising global
temperatures so far? Second, scientists ask whether the factors that create
tornadoes have been affected by climate change, and whether those factors are
likely to be affected in the future. This is where all the uncertainty comes
in.
    For one thing, our data on tornado trends is imperfect. At first glance,
you might think the number of tornadoes has increased since the 1990s. But most
of that is actually the result of better technology improving our ability to
spot smaller, weaker tornadoes, and to notice tornadoes in places where few
people live, according to the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric
Administration. Bad data means that we can’t reliably say whether tornado counts
are increasing.
    So, instead, NOAA looks at the variables. Tornadoes are somewhat random
things. We can find factors that are associated with tornado formation–things
like moisture content in the atmosphere, quick changes in wind speed and
direction, and what meteorologists call thermodynamic instability, basically
mixing between layers of warm air and cooler air. But just because those factors
exist doesn’t necessarily mean a tornado will appear.
    There are many things that can affect these factors that make tornadoes
more likely. Scientists have found that climate change is something that can
affect tornado conditions. But when NOAA looked at data for the past 30 years’
worth of Aprils in the Mississippi Valley, they didn’t see evidence of any
trends that would mean tornado weather is already becoming more frequent.
    Because of that, NOAA says it would be problematic to claim the recent
spate of tornadoes in the Southeast were caused by climate change. But that’s
not the same as saying tornadoes can’t be caused by climate change. It’s not the
same thing as saying that climate change isn’t a contributing factor. Or that
tornadoes won’t be caused by climate change in the future. It’s not even the
same as saying that, years from now, with better data and technology, we won’t
look back and see a trend happening that isn’t obvious today. NOAA’s assessment
is based on indirect evidence focused on one area of one country. The big
question–Are tornadoes caused by climate change?–is made up of lots of little
questions. And we don’t know all the answers to the little questions yet.
        Section B English to Chinese
    有时候，在工作中重要的倒是能否处理好人际关系而不是有很多的才能。人际关系就是一种善于听取别人的意见，体察别人的需要，虚心接受批评的能力。善于处理人际关系的人敢于承认错误，敢于承担自己的责任，这是对待错误的一种成熟和负责任的态度。这就是为什么许多平平庸庸的公司雇员在大调整中保住了位置，而有才能的人反到下岗。因为他们很注意处理各方面的关系，所以八面玲珑，到处有缘。而人际关系差的人往往不能处理好批评。碰到错误，他们首先想到自己，拒不承认错误，或情绪低落或大发雷霆，成为有刺的人，难以相处。
    参考译文：Sometimes it is interpersonal skills rather than professional skills
that really counts in your career. Interpersonal skills are nothing but the
ability ti be good listener, to be sensitive toward others’ needs, to take
criticism well. People with skill in social relations admit their mistakes, and
take their share of blame, which is a mature and responsible way to handle an
error. That is why many mediocre employees survive violent corporate upheavals
while people of great talent are being laid off. Sensitive in their dealing with
others, they are well liked everywhere. People with poor interpersonal skills
have trouble taking criticism. When confronted with a mistake, they let their
ego get in the way. They deny responsibility and became moody or angry. They
mark themselves as “prickly”.
