【分析】

本题考查汉译英，注意按括号内的要求翻译。

1．考查固定句式。“the+比较级，the+比较级”表示“越……，越……”，根据句意可知，从句用一般现在时，主句用一般将来时，故翻译为：The more open-minded you are, the less easily you’ll be influenced by others’ opinions.

2．考查强调句型的特殊疑问句形式。强调句型的特殊疑问句结构为：what is it that…?陈述的是客观情况，应该用一般现在时，故翻译为：What is it that makes you hold such a positive attitude towards the result of the examination?

3．考查face的用法和形式主语。face表示“面对”时是及物动词，后面直接接宾语，也可用短语be faced with表示“面对”，根据句意可知本句用it作形式主语，真正的主语是后面的不定式，陈述的是客观事实，用一般现在时，故翻译为：When parents are facing / faced with fierce competition and plenty of uncertainties, it is natural for them to feel anxious about their children’s academic performance.

4．考查so…that的倒装和条件状语从句。stick to表示“坚持、固执于”，keep up with 表示“赶上”，so…that结构中so连同它所直接修饰的成分共同位于句首表示强调时，主句要进行倒装，that后的结果状语从句不倒装，if引导的条件状语从句的复合句遵循“主将从现”原则，故翻译为：So fast is the society developing that if you stick to outdated concepts and can’t keep up with the pace of the times, it won’t be long before you are abandoned / deserted by the times.
