2017年英语四级翻译考试模拟题:科学家与动物
请将下面这段话翻译成英文:
近年来科学家的发现使我们开始改变对动物的看法。原来动物与人类的相似之处比我们想象的要多得多。它们也能感受痛苦,体验压力,表达情感、兴奋和爱。科学家通过对动物的认真观察或检测获得它们的这些情感反应。现在尚不清楚家畜的这些反应是否会对其肉的品质产生影响。
参考翻译:
Animals are more like us than we ever imagined. They feel pain, they experience stress, they show affection, excitement and love. All these findings have been made by scientists in recent years and such results are beginning to change how we view animals. Scientists obtained those reactions of animals through careful observation and laboratory testing. It is still uncertain if such reactions could degrade the meat quality of farm animals.
