　　第三部分：参考译文

　　不久之后，我们的口袋里就看不到多少假英镑了。牛顿以其对重力的冥想著称，还曾做过几年皇家造币厂的监督员，负责维护国家货币制度完整性。

　　他以一种巨大的---有人可能会说是过度的---热情来履行职责：据说，他曾贿赂并依靠威廉·查洛纳的下属和情妇来确保让造假头目定罪。

　　今天皇家造币厂摈弃了这种策略，但是对货币安全的重视却却有过之而无不及。新的一英镑硬币将从3月28日起出现在超市和银行中。第一批15亿硬币将从威尔士的生产地起运，截至到十月份，消费者不得不花费或者兑换他们的旧硬币。

　　四、常用词句总结

　　1.注意这里如何进行长句交错（次-主-次）：Best known for his musings on gravity, Isaac Newton also spent several years as warden of the Royal Mint, charged with upholding the integrity of the nation's coinage.

　　2.注意这里中间插入语使用：He performed the role with great---some might say excessive--- enthusiasm

　　3.The mint of today eschews such tactics, but takes currency security no less seriously. （含蓄否定）

　　4.中间插入语：…Consumers will have until October to spend or exchange their old coins.

　　五、写作手法提示

　　1）主题句要先写：很多同学不清楚这个道理，堆砌不等于写作，看下面这个段落：

　　China is rapidly developing in recent years. According to the economic data by the government, our country has changed more dramatically than before. So with it followed there are a phenomenon called “China hot” in many other countries, that is, foreigners are popular with travel to China, wearing traditional Chinese costume, eating Chinese diet, even learning Chinese and Beijing Opera. However, is that the picture tells us? Certainly not. The American girl is not only wearing a traditional Chinese costume，but expressing Chinese traditional cultural sign. Furthermore, this picture above does convey a truth that the national culture is international culture, and that is easy to understand.
