10. There is no month in the whole year, in which nature wears a more beautiful appearance than in the month of August. Spring has many beauties, and May is a fresh and blooming month;but the charms of this time of year are enhanced by their contrast with the winter season. August has no such advantage. It comes when we remember nothing but clear skies, green fields and sweet-smelling flowers —when the recollection of snow, and ice, and bleak winds, has faded

from our minds as completely as they have disappeared from the earth —and yet what a pleasant time it is!

【译文】一年之中,八月的自然景色最美。春天固然美景多多,五月清新,鲜花艳丽,但此乃冬天的反衬所致,八月却不然。八月来临,寒风未至,雪冰无踪,记忆中只是令人愉悦的时光啊!晴朗的天空、碧绿的田野还有那芬芳的花朵。

Orchards and corn-fields ring with the hum of labor; trees bend beneath the thick clusters of rich fruit which bow their branches to the ground; and the corn, piled in graceful sheaves, or waving in every light breath that sweeps above it, as if it wooed the sickle, tinges the landscape with a golden hue. A mellow softness appears to hang over the whole earth; the influence of the season seems to extend itself to the very wagon, whose slow motion across the well-reaped field, is perceptible only to the eye, but strikes with no harsh sound upon the ear. (Charles Dickens)

【续】果园里和麦田间回荡着劳动的歌声,果实压满枝头,枝条弯腰垂地,枝条垂地;麦田一片金黄,已收割的庄稼束捆成摞,整整齐齐,未收割的随着阵阵微风曲腰扭肢,似乎向割镰求爱;大地呈现一派祥和、丰收的景象;这时令的气息似乎也触及到每辆大车,车轮慢慢压过收割过的田野,声音悦耳和谐。

I beseech you, let his lack of years be no impediment to let him lack a reverend estimation; for I never knew so young a body with so old a head. I leave him to your gracious acceptance, whose trial shall better publish his commendation. (Shakespeare: The Merchant of Venice)

2.翻译下列段落

1)What WTO Accession Means for China (入世对于中国的意义)

In this new age of globalization , China’s leadership has decided to seek globalization’s benefits and accept its risks. The decision to join the WTO, and to accept the disciplines and rules that lie at its heart, is the latest important step enabling China to navigate globalization’s currents.

【译文】在这个全球化的新时代,中国领导人决定寻求全球化的益处,并承受其带来的风险。加入世贸组织并且接受作为其核心的行为准则和各项规则,这个决定是中国顺应全球化潮流所迈出的最为重要的一步。

Therefore, I am proud that my colleagues and I had the opportunity last year, shortly after assuming office, to take the lead in driving to complete China’s admission to the WTO after the process had been stalled for a year and half.

【续】因此,我引以自豪的是,我的同事和我本人在去年刚上任不久的首要工作就是,在中国入世进程停顿了一年半之后,致力于完成这项工作。

As a WTO member, China is supposed to greatly reduce tariff and non-tariff barriers. It will need to improve protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights. It needs to allow companies engaged in telecommunications, computer services, banking, securities, insurance, freight forwarding, and wholesale and retail distribution to invest in China, providing services of value and spurring domestic competition.

【续】作为世贸组织的成员,中国应当大幅降低关税和非关税壁垒,应当加强实施对知识产权的保护,应当允许(外国)公司投资于中国的电信、计算机服务、银行、证券、保险、货物转运以及批发与零售业,以提供各种重要的服务,推动国内竞争。

China has agreed to transform its system of laws and regulations through transparency, opening rules to comment before promulgation and to court review afterward. As a result, China’s membership in the WTO will mean lower prices, greater consumer choice, greater enterprise efficiency, enhanced productivity, higher wages, new jobs, and more opportunity.

【续】中国已经同意通过提高透明度来进行法律制度改革,其法规在颁布实施前要进行公示,听取意见,实施后要接受法院检验。其结果是,中国成为世贸组织成员后将带来的好处是:物价下降,消费者有更多的选择,企业效益增大,生产率提高,工资上涨,就业机会增多,机遇也越来越多。

2)I Have a Dream (Martin Luther King)

This is our hope. This is the faith with which I return to the South. With his faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With this faith we will

be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day.

【译文】这就是我的希望。这就是我带回南方的信念。怀着这个信念,我们能够把绝望的大山凿成希望的磐石。怀着这个信念,我们能够将我国种族不和的喧嚣变为一曲友爱的乐章。怀着这个信念,我们能够一同工作,一同祈祷,一同奋斗,一同入狱坐牢,一同为争取自由而斗争,因为我们知道我们终将获得自由。

When we let freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, “Free at last! free at last! thank God almighty, we are free at last!”

【续】我们使自由之音响彻千家万户,响彻每个州郡城池,就会促使那个日子尽快到来。到了那一天,上帝的一切儿女,无论黑人、白人、犹太人、非犹太人、基督教徒和天主教徒都将携手同唱那首古老的黑人圣歌:“我们终于获得了自由!终于获得了自由!感谢全能的上帝,我们终于获得了自由!”

四种翻译方法,十种翻译技巧

四种翻译方法 1.直译和意译 所谓直译,就是在译文语言条件许可时,在译文中既保持原文的内容,又保持原文的形式——特别指保持原文的比喻、形象和民族、地方色彩等。 每一个民族语言都有它自己的词汇、句法结构和表达方法。当原文的思想内容与译文的表达形式有矛盾不宜采用直译法处理时,就应采用意译法。意译要求译文能正确表达原文的内容,但可以不拘泥与原文的形式。(张培基) 应当指出,在再能确切的表达原作思想内容和不违背译文语言规范的条件下,直译有其可取之处,一方面有助于保存原著的格调,另一方面可以进新鲜的表达方法。 Literal translation refers to an adequate representation of the original. When the original coincides or almost tallies with the Chinese language in the sequence of vocabulary, in grammatical structure and rhetorical device, literal translation must be used. Free translation is also called liberal translation, which does not adhere strictly to the form or word order of the original.(郭著章) 直译法是指在不违背英语文化的前提下,在英译文中完全保留汉语词语的指称意义,求得内容和形式相符的方法。

历年英语四级翻译真题与答案

2013年12月: 段落翻译: 试卷一:中餐 【真题原文】许多人喜欢中餐,在中国,烹饪不仅被视为一种技能,而且也被视为一种艺术。精心准备的中餐既可口又好看,烹饪技艺和配料在中国各地差别很大。但好的烹饪都有一个共同点,总是要考虑到颜色、味道、口感和营养(nutrition)。由于食物对健康至关重要,好的厨师总是努力在谷物、肉类和蔬菜之间取得平衡,所以中餐既味美又健康。 【翻译答案】Most people like Chinese food. In China, cooking is considered as not only a skill but also an art. The well-prepared Chinese food is both delicious and good-looking. Although cooking methods and food ingredient vary wildly in different places of China, it is common for good cuisine to take color, flavor, taste and nutrition into account.

Nowadays, tea is one of the most popular beverage in the world, and it is not only the treasure of China but also an important part of Chinese tradition and culture. 试卷四:中国结

英语四级翻译解题技巧

一、翻译的标准 严复:信、达、雅(faithfulness, expressiveness, elegance—忠实于原文;译文通顺易懂;译文展示出风采) 二、汉译英常用方法和技巧 与词有关的翻译方法包括: 直译和意译 词义的选择 词的增补与省略 词类转义法 重复法 正说反译法和反说正译法 分句法和合句法 直译和意译 首先应当指出,直译不是死译,而是指基本保留原有句子结构,照字面意思翻译。意译也不是胡译、乱译,而是在不损害原文内容和精神的前提下,为了表达的需要,对原文作相应的调整。 例 原文:我们的朋友遍天下。 直译:Our friends are all over the world. 意译:We have friends all over the world. 直译以严格意义上的忠实为宗旨,意译则更多考虑英语的特点,更强调译文的效果,不求形式对应,只求语言在深层次中的对应。总之,选择直译还是意译,应该根据文章具体需要而定,两种译法可以并用。 能直译则直译 例 原文:爱是耐心和善良;爱不是妒忌和吹嘘;爱不是傲慢和粗鲁。 译文: Love is patience and kindness; love is not jealous and boast; love is not

arrogance and rudeness. 原文:你们要八仙过海,各显其能,完成这项工作。 译文:You should display your special prowess like eight immortals ( in Chinese legend) crossing the sea, to fulfill this task. 必须意译 例 原文:怕什么呢死了张屠夫,还有李屠夫,人多得很。 直译:If Butcher Zhang dies, there’s Butcher Li yet. 译文:What are you afraid of He is not the only pebble on the beach. 意译效果比直译好 例 原文:她怕碰一鼻子灰,话到了嘴边,又把它吞了下去。 译文:She was afraid of being turned down / snubbed, so she swallowed the words that came up to her lips. 词义的选择 汉译英的过程就是寻找适当的英语词、词组和句型来重新表达汉语原文的思想的过程。正确的选词是保证译文质量的重要前提。词的选择主要从以下两个方面着手。 一、根据上下文正确理解原文的词义 词的正确选择首先取决于对原文词义的确切理解,而这又取决于对原文上下文的推敲。在具体运用中,词义往往随着语言情境而千变万化,因此,我们必须熟悉词在运用中的灵活变化,才有可能选择出等值词或近值词。 英语词汇在翻译成汉语时也需要根据具体的语言环境选择适当的词义,因为汉语也有丰富的同义表达法。 二、辨析词义和正确选词 (一)注意词的广义和狭义 词义有广狭之分,运用范围也就各不相同。

2016年12月英语四级翻译真题及参考答案

Part Ⅳ Translation (30 minutes) Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese to English. You should write your answer on Answer Sheet 2. 2016年12月英语四级翻译真题及参考答案(卷一)红色 在中国文化中,红色通常象征着好运、长寿和幸福,在春节和其他喜庆场合,红色到处可见。人们把现金作为礼物送给家人或亲密朋友时,通常放在红信封里。红色在中国流行的另一个原因是人们把它与中国革命和共产党相联系。然而,红色并不总是代表好运与快乐。因为从前死者的名字常用红色书写,用红墨水写中国人名被看成是一种冒犯行为。 参考范文:

在中国文化中,黄颜色是一种很重要的颜色,因为它具有独特的象征意义。在封建(feudal)社会中,它象征统治者的权力和权威。那时,黄色是专为皇帝使用的颜色,皇家宫殿全都漆成黄色,皇袍总是黄色的,而普通老百姓是禁止穿黄色衣服的。在中国,黄色也是收获的象征。秋天庄稼成熟时,田野变得一片金黄。人们兴高采烈,庆祝丰收。 要点1:黄颜色是一种很重要的颜色yellow is an important color, 相信这句大家都能译的出来,不过要注意:“黄颜色”不需要写yellow color,因为yellow本来就是黄色。 要点2:它具有独特的象征意义which carries a unique symbolic meaning. 要点3:它象征着统治者的权利和权威It embodies rulers’ power and authority.此处,统治者可以接受的译法还有:governor, dominator 都是可以的。象征还可以写成symbolize,represent. 要点4:皇家宫殿全都漆成黄色royal palaces were painted with yellow. 皇家宫殿royal palaces,皇帝emperor,黄袍imperial robes. 要点5:普通老百姓是禁止穿黄色衣服的average people were not allowed to wear yellow clothes,禁止还可以用:ban, forbid. 要点6:秋天庄稼成熟时,田野变得一片金黄When crops are ripe in Fall,the farmlands become a piece of golden yellow.

文言文翻译技巧和方法

文言文翻译技巧和方法 一、基本方法:直译和意译文言文翻译的基本方法有直译和意译两种。所谓直译,是指用现代汉语的词对原文进行逐字逐句地对应翻译,做到实词、虚词尽可能文意相对。直译的好处是字字落实;其不足之处是有时译句文意难懂,语言也不够通顺。所谓意译,则是根据语句的意思进行翻译,做到尽量符合原文意思,语句尽可能照顾原文词义。意译有一定的灵活性,文字可增可减,词语的位置可以变化,句式也可以变化。意译的好处是文意连贯,译文符合现代语言的表达习惯,比较通顺、流畅、好懂。其不足之处是有时原文不能字字落实。这两种翻译方法当以直译为主,意译为辅。 二、具体方法:留、删、补、换、调、变。 “留”:就是保留。凡是古今意义相同的词,以及古代的人名、地名、物名、官名、国号、年号、度量衡单位等,翻译时可保留不变。例如:《晏子使楚》中的“楚王”、“晏婴”、“晏子”等不用翻译。 “删”,就是删除。删掉无须译出的文言虚词。例如:“寡人反取病焉”的“焉”是语气助词,可不译,本句的意思就是“我反而自讨没趣。”(《晏子使楚》)又如:“子猷、子敬俱病笃,而子敬先亡”中的“而”是连词,可不译,整句意思是“子猷与子敬都病重,子敬先死去。” “补”,就是增补。(1)变单音词为双音词,如《桃花源记》中“率妻子邑人来此绝境”,“妻子”一词是“妻子、儿女”的意思;(2)补出省略句中的省略成分,如《人琴俱亡》中“语时了不悲”,翻译为:(子猷)说话时候完全不悲伤。 “换”,就是替换。用现代词汇替换古代词汇。如把“吾、余、予”等换成“我”,把“尔、汝”等换成“你”。“调”就是调整。把古汉语倒装句调整为现代汉语句式。例如《人琴俱亡》中“何以都不闻消息”,“何以”是“以何”的倒装,宾语前置句,意思是“为什么”。“变”,就是变通。在忠实于原文的基础上,活译有关文字。“子猷问左右”(人琴俱亡))中的“左右”指的是“手下的人”,“左右对曰”(《晏子使楚》中的“左右”指的是“近臣”。 古文翻译口诀古文翻译,自有顺序,首览全篇,掌握大意;先明主题,搜集信息,由段到句,从句到词,全都理解,连贯一起,对待难句,则需心细,照顾前文,联系后句,
