一、译前自测-ECO选段(英译汉)
建议落笔翻译，若手头暂无纸笔，也可先进行视译。
CONVENTIONAL WISDOM holds that battery-powered cars are the future of motoring. But Hyundai, a big South Korean vehicle-maker, is not so sure. Over the past few months it has been running a worldwide public-relations campaign extolling the virtues of an alternative source of electrical power—fuel cells. Instead of storing and then releasing electricity gathered from the mains in the way that a battery does, a fuel cell generates current from a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen. The oxygen comes from the air. The hydrogen, suitably compressed, is stored in a tank on board the vehicle, and is replenished at a filling station, like petrol. Unlike a battery, a fuel cell does create exhaust. But that exhaust is simply the reaction product of hydrogen and oxygen, namely water.

传统观点认为 conventional wisdom holds that
电池驱动的汽车 battery-powered cars
汽车制造商 vehicle-maker
在全球范围内开展一项公关活动 a worldwide public-relations campaign
宣传另一种电源的优点 extol the virtues of an alternative source
extol
V-T If you extol something or someone, you praise them enthusiastically. 颂扬
例：
Now experts are extolling the virtues of the humble potato.
现在专家们在颂扬粗陋的马铃薯的种种好处。
产生电流generates current
适当压缩的suitably compressed
在加氢站补充is replenished at a filling station

传统观点认为，电池驱动的汽车是汽车的未来。但韩国大型汽车制造商现代并不完全相信这一点。过去几个月中，它一直在全球范围内开展一项公关活动，宣传另一种电源——燃料电池——的优点。燃料电池不是像电池那样把市电的电力储存起来然后再释放，而是通过氢和氧之间的化学反应产生电流。氧来自空气。适当压缩的氢气存在车辆的储罐中，并在加氢站那里像加油一样补充。与电池不同，燃料电池确实会产生排放。但这些排放只是氢和氧的反应产物，也就是水。
