徐霞客一生周游考察了十六个省,足迹几乎遍及全国。他在考察的过程中,从来不盲目迷信书本上的结论。他发现前人研究地理的记载有许多很不可靠的地方。为了进行真实细致的考察,他很少乘车坐船,几乎全靠双脚翻山越岭,长途跋涉;为了弄清大自然的真相,他总是挑选道路艰险的山区,人迹稀少的森林进行考察,发现了许多奇山秀景;他常常选择不同的时间和季节,多次重游各地名山,反复观察变换的奇景。

Xu Xiake toured and investigated/inspect/observe16 provinces in his lifetime, covering almost the whole of China/ the whole country. When he was carrying out his investigations, he never took blind

belief(blind self-confidence blind her judgment.) in the conclusions in the books. Instead he found a lot of unreliable points in the geographic

[?d?i:?'ɡr?f?k] records taken by his predecessors.[?pri:d?ses?(r)]

In order to make his investigations reliable and thorough, he seldom traveled by carriage or boat. Instead, he took long, arduous trips on foot almost all the time, climbing mountains and hills. In order to learn about the truth of nature, he always chose to conduct investigations in mountainous areas with dangerous roads and in lonely / untraveled woods, where he discovered a lot of magnificent peaks and beautiful sights.

可是我却哭了。哭那陌生的、但却疼爱我的卖灶糖(candy)的老汉。

后来我常想,他为什么疼爱我呢?无非我是个贪吃的、因为丑陋而又少人疼爱的吧。

等我长大以后,总感到除了母亲,再没有谁能够像他那样朴素地疼爱过我——没有任何希求,也没有任何企望的。

我常常想念他,也常常想要找到我那个像猪肚子一样的烟荷包。可是,

它早已不知被我丢到哪里去了。

But I cried for the strange old candy peddler who had been so fond of me.

Later on, I wondered why. For no other reason than that I was a foolish little thing who loved candy, with few to love me because of my plain face.

When I glow up, I could never forget that apart from my own mother, no one had loved me so fondly and so disinterestedly, with no expectations whatever.

I often think of him now, and have tried to find that tobacco pouch that had looked like a piece of pork liver. But I don’t know what became of it.

多少年来,我养成了一个习惯:每天早晨四点在黎明以前起床工作。我不出去跑步或散步,而是一下床就干活儿。因此我对黎明前的北京的了解是在屋子里感觉到的。我从前在什么报上读过一篇文章,讲黎明时分天安门广场上的清洁工人。那情景必然是非常动人的,可惜我从未能见到,只是心向往之而已。

For many years, I have been in the habit of getting up before daybreak to start work at four. Instead of going out for a jog or walk, I’ll set about my work as soon as I’m out of bed. As a result, it is from inside my study that I've got the feel of predawn Beijing. Years ago, I hit upon a newspaper article about street cleaners in Tian’anmen Square at daybreak. It must have been a very moving scene, but what a pity I haven’t seen it with my own eyes. I can only picture it in my mind longingly.

长沙是一个有3000多年历史的美丽古城。城市的西边是秀美的岳麓山,山下有千年书院“岳麓书院”等众多古迹。市区中心的古城楼天心阁,距今有1000多年的历史。千百年来水质清纯,终年不断的白沙古井也坐落在长沙城中。今天的长沙市民还常常在这里打水饮用。湘江中的橘子洲头,是当年毛泽东先生经常漫步思考的地方,后来还写了一首非常著名的诗来赞美她。

Changsha is a beautiful ancient city with a history of over 3,000 years. West of the city is the beautiful Yuelu Hill, at the foot of the hill, are many historic sites such as Yuelu Academy. In the center of the city is the ancient city gate tower --Tianxin Tower, which was

first built 1000 years ago. Also located in the city is the ancient Baisha Well, from which clear and pure water has been gushing out nonstop throughout the year for thousands of years. Inhabitants in Changsha today still come here to fetch water for drinking. Orange Island in the Xiang River was where Mr. Mao Zedong often rambled and meditated. Later he wrote a very famous poem in its praise.

洞庭湖是中国第二大淡水湖。洞庭湖畔的岳阳楼,是中国三大名楼中唯一保持原址原貌的国家重点保护文物。岳阳楼所处的位置极好,它屹立于岳阳古城之上,背靠岳阳城,俯瞰洞庭湖,遥对君山岛,北依长江,南通湘江。自古以来,就是人们观光旅游的好地方。

Lake Dongting is China’s second largest freshwater lake. Yueyang Tower, which is located on its shores, is a national key cultural relic for protection as the only one of China’s famous towers that is kept in its original condition at its original site. The tower is very favorably located, standing as it does on Yueyang’s ancient city wall with the city behind and overlooking Lake Dongting to the distant Junshan Isle; to its north is the Yangtze River and to the south the Xiang River. Since ancient times, the tower has been a good place for sightseeing and touring. (Picture)

正当这位美军飞虎队员一筹莫展眼看只能坐以待毙时,两名中国男孩从杂草丛钻出出现在他的面前,男孩一样个头,都才十二、三岁年纪。

他如遇救星,立刻打手势让他们过来。

两个男孩稍作迟疑,立即来到了他的身边。在他的指点下,男孩利索地帮他解开了降落伞,并一边一个迅速扶起他往前走。才走不到200米,已经看到了挂太阳旗的日军汽艇,两个男孩简短地商量了几句,就果断地把这名飞虎队员推到山坡边的一丛很深的杂草中,并扯来一大把芦苇将四周盖严后,箭似般消失在树林中。

This American “Flying Tiger” was at a loss, thinking that he could do nothing but await his doom, when out of the jumble of rank grass emerged two Chinese boys, both of the same height and just a dozen years old.

As if seeing his saviors, he signed to them to come nearer.

The boys hesitated a little and came over to him. With his instructions, they dexterously unfastened his parachute, and helped him along with one of them on each side. But before they had walked 200 m, they saw Japanese motorboats come flying their sun flags. The boys talked a moment and then, without delay, hid the “Flying Tiger” in a thick growth of grass by the hillside, and putting around him more reeds they had quickly pulled out, they vanished swiftly into the wood.

家庭是社会的基本单位,它的结构随着社会的发展而变化。在中国几千年的封建社会里,自给自足的小农经济占主导地位,家庭不仅是日常生活的基本单位,也是生产单位。理想的、令人羡慕的家庭是五世同堂,家里的大事由男人做主。近百年来,中国发生了巨大变化,中国社会经过漫长的封建时期,半封建、半殖民地时期进入了社会主义社会。这具有历史意义的变化使中国家庭的结构也改变了。人口众多的大家庭开始分成较小的家庭和直系家庭,总的趋势是出现了越来越多的核心家庭。

The structure of the family, which is a basic unit of the society, changes along with the development of the society. In China's feudal society which lasted several thousand years, a self-sufficient small peasant economy predominated. The family was not only the basic

unit in everyday life, but also a basic unit of production. An ideal family admired by all consisted of 5 generations, with the male members making all the important decisions. During the last hundred years, great changes have taken place in China. The Chinese society, which had gone through the long feudal period, and later the semi-colonial, semi-feudal period, had turned into a socialist society. This historic change has led to changes in the Chinese family structure. Large families began to divide into smaller extended families and stem families, with the trend pointing toward the emergence of more and more nuclear families.

现在我自己已是几个孩子的父亲了。我爱孩子,但我没有前一辈父亲的想法,帮孩子一直帮到老,帮到死还不足。我赞美前一辈父亲的美德,而自己却不能跟着他们的步伐走去。

我觉得我的孩子累我,使我受到极大的束缚。我没有对他们的永久的计划,甚至连最短促的也没有。

“倘使有人要,我愿意把他们送给人家!”我常常这样说,当我厌烦孩子的时候。

唉,和前一辈做父亲的一比,我觉得我们这一辈生命力薄弱得可怜,我们二三十岁的人比不上六七十岁的前辈,他们虽然老的老死的死了,但是他们才是真正活着到现在到将来。

而我们呢,虽然活着,却是早已死了。

Now I myself am a father of several children. Though I love my kids, still I do not share the idea of father and people of his time that one can never do too much in his lifetime to help his children. Much as I admire father and people of his time for their moral excellence, I can never follow in their footsteps.

I think of my children as an encumbrance to me. I haven't worked out a long-term plan for them, nay, not even a short-term one.

"I'd like to give away my kids to anyone who's willing to take them!" That's what I say whenever I am fed up with them.

Alas, compared with father and people of his time, the present generation, I think, have regrettably low vitality. We in our twenties or thirties prove inferior to our elders in their sixties or seventies. Today they may be advanced in years or even no more, but they will, nevertheless, live forever and ever.

As for us, though still alive, we have long been dead.

目前,人类的生存环境正在遭到破坏,美丽的大自然已经不那么美丽了。保护野生动物,也就是保护人娄自己。我强烈呼吁:不要再捕杀黑猩猩,不要再捕杀野生动物了,让我们人类多一些地球上的朋友,多给我们下一代保留一些野生动物吧! 否则,地球将毁灭在人类手中,人类将毁灭在自己手中。

At present, man’s living environment is being ruined, and beautiful nature is no longer so beautiful. Protection of wild life is protection of man himself. So I appeal strongly to all to stop killing the chimpanzee or any other wild animal. Let us human beings have more friends on the earth, and leave more wild life for future generations. Or the earth would be destroyed by man, and man by man himself.

为了把女人吃惊时的样子演活,梅兰芳曾花费了不少心思,但总是找不到感觉。一天,他从剧场回到家里,见妻子正聚精会神地整理衣服,他忽然灵机一动,抄起身旁的一个兰花瓷盆,使劲摔在地上。“哐”的一声,瓷盆粉碎。妻子大吃一惊,惊慌地转过身来。就在这一瞬间,梅兰芳及时地捕捉住了妻子的表情和动作,并牢牢地记在了心里,经过反复练习,然后运用到戏里,终于把女人吃惊的样于演得活灵活现。

Mei Lanfang took great pains to act an astonished woman in a lifelike way, but he could never find the right feel. One day, when he came home from the theater, he saw his wife absorbed in tidying up clothes. He hit upon a bright idea, and, seizing a porcelain pot with designs of orchid he smashed it onto the floor. With a crash the pot broke into pieces. Astonished, his wife turned around in panic. In this instant, Mei Lanfang captured her expression and actions and kept them firmly in his mind. After repeated practice, he employed them in his acting, and at last succeeded in vivid acting of an astonished woman.

(3)动词?形容词?汉语的一些动词常常用形容词来表达,这些形容词通常是与动词同源的词(如dreamful,doubtful,sympathetic 等),这样的译文有时会更地道、标准。?原文:在明朝和清朝时期特别流行。?译文:It was widespread particularly during the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

精编新CET6段落翻译(汉译英)练习及答案

精编新CET6段落翻译(汉译英)练习题 每日一练,快速提高英语水平! 第1篇 练习时间:年月日耗时:分 污染已成为问题,因为在当今人口越来越多,社会越来越工业化的世界上,人类正在污染他们居住的环境。许多科学家认为人类最大的错误是把发展和进步等同起来。现在人们以怀疑的态度看待“发展性”的产业,因为它们的副作用会破坏环境,破坏各种生命之间的关系。人口的增长导致对世界上有限的空气、水和土地的需求不断增长。伴随着人口增长的是越来越多的人渴望更高的生活水平。于是对电、水和商品的更大需求必然造成有更多的废物要处理。这个问题已经引起人们对生物及其环境的日益关注。许多人认为,人类没有尽快地解决这一问题,却只顾谋求私利,以致于到了无可挽救的地步以后才充分认识到这种兵贵神速。 第2篇 练习时间:年月日耗时:分 人们对智力所指的有那些不同表现看法比较一致,而对这些表现如何进行解释和分类,意见就不那么一致了。但人们一般认为智力高的人在处理问题时能抓住要点,善于区分,能进行逻辑推理,和利用语言和数学符号。智力测试只能很粗地衡量孩子的学习能力,尤其是学习学校要求的东西的能力。智力测试并不能衡量一个人的个性,社会适应力,耐力性,劳动技能,或艺术才能。人们不认为能做到这些,当初也不是为这些目的设计的。批评智力测试不能做到这一些,就如同批评温度计不能测风速一样。既然对智力的评估是相对而言的,那么我们必须确保,在对我们的对像进行比较时,我们所使用的尺度能提供“有效的”或“公正的”比较。 第3篇 练习时间:年月日耗时:分 目前全国有39所大学开设地理学位课程,但我从未看到广告上有招聘地理专业的大学毕业生的好工作。或是不是只有我一个人怀疑他们将回到学校教另一批学生的地理,而这些学生将来又去教更多的学生的地理?现在只有10所大学开设航天工程学位课程,考虑到飞机制造业一直在裁员的速度,还是这样做好。另一方面,由于缺少医生,全国的医院急诊室不得不纷纷关门。为什么?因为大学的医学院只能为申请攻读学位的一半人提供名额。对我说,来,时机已经成熟,就业部和教育部应当和名大学携手起来,改革我们的教育制度,使之更珍惜地使用学校的人才资源,学生的刻苦勤奋精神。而现在这些人才和努力都浪费在无人感兴趣的文凭和学位上。 第4篇 练习时间:年月日耗时:分 在竞争的法则下,上万人的雇主不得不实行一些最严厉的节约措施,其中节约给工人报酬的那部分占很大一部分。社会为这个法则付出的代价如同为低廉的舒适条件和奢侈品付出的代价一样是巨大的。但带来的好处超过了代价,因为正是这个法则,我们才有了了不起的物质进步,其结果是生活水平的提高。但是,不管这个法则是好是坏,我们无法回避,对任何建议替代它的新东西,其作用我们是不敢肯定的,虽然这个法则有时对个人来说可能很残

While he shared his generation’s horror of war and was once called the “spiritual father” of appeasement,Keynes never, in fact, entertained the delusion that Hitler could be pacified. He hated the Nazi regime, never visited Germany after 1933.Instead, as Britain’s chief negotiator in contact with the Allies against Hitler. He pursued vigorously the common interest between London and Washington. Unit 2 Some people wrongly believe that the United States is a land of opportunity, and that every enjoy equal opportunities. With various dreams in mind, many well-trained professionals steadily migrate to the United States in search of a good life. Some of them are even willing to live any life there. They would rather live in poverty there than enjoy a relative prosperity at home. Therefore, lawyers and doctors from Central America may be found washing cars or waiting on tables in Miami. Unit 3 Just as the 21st century requires a more diffused and safer balance of interest in what needs to be an increasingly multilateral global village, there is a risk of economic, institutional and political power being centralized in the European Community, and that a new bout of economic empire building may occur. Unit 4 The path led straight through a wide stream. She could no longer risk disorientation by circling such obstacles. She took off her clothes and, with her belongings in a nylon bag held above her head. She stepped into the chilling, neck-deep water. Minutes later she emerged shaking uncontrollably. But after warming herself by a small fire and re-dressing.she set off with increased confidence. The limits of her physical capacity were expanding. Unit 5 Scientists have recently discovered a chemical change occurring in mice,which might help in developing new drugs to control obesity someday. Scientists have identified a receptor in mouse cells that controls how fat is used in the body. When a mouse lives an easy life and puts on weight,the receptor functions accordingly. If a similar regulator exists in human beings,or drugs functioning in this way were to be used for regulating,it would be a promising way to tackle the world’s growing obesity epidemic.

经典英文段落翻译__英译汉15篇

1.意大利著名旅行家马可。波罗曾这样叙述他印象中的杭州:“这是世界上最美妙迷人的城市,它使人觉得自己社在天堂。”在中国,也流传着这样的话:“上有天堂,下有苏杭。”杭州的名气主要在于风景如画的西湖。西湖一年四季都美不胜收,宋代著名诗人苏东坡用“淡妆浓抹总相宜”的诗句来赞誉西湖。在杭州,您可以饱览西湖的秀色,也不妨漫步街头闹市,品尝一下杭州的名菜名点,还可购上几样名特土产。 The famous Italian traveler Marco Pole was so impressed by the beauty of Hangzhou that he described it as “the mist fascinating city in the world where one feels that one is in paradise.” In China, there has been a century-old popular saying praising the city: In Heaven there is Paradise; on Earth there are Suzhou and Hangz hou.” Hangzhou’s fame lies mainly in its picturesque West Lake. As it is beautiful all the year round, the West Lake was compared by Su Dongpo, a celebrated poet of the Song Dynasty, to a beauty “who is always charming in either light or heavy makeup.” In Hangzhou, you will not only find the lake a perfect delight to the eye but also find it a joy to stroll along the busy streets, taste famous Hangzhou dishes and buy some special local products. 2.在设备制造期间,雇主的代表有权对根据合同提供的全部工程设备的材料和工艺进行检查、研究和检验,同时检查其制造进度。这一切应在工作时间内于承包商的工厂里进行。如果工程设备正在其它第三方工厂制造,承包商应为卖方代表获得他能在该工厂进行此类检查、研究和检验的许可。此类检查、研究或检验不应解除承包商在合同中的任何义务。 The Employer’s representative shall be entitled during manufacture to inspect, examine and test the materials and workmanship and check the progress of manufacture of all Plants to be supplied under the Contract.

汉译英句子翻译常见问题解析 摘要:在英语学习过程中,句子的翻译一直都是学习者关注的 焦点问题。本文就英语的汉译英句子翻译中常见的、学习者容易犯 错的问题,比如词汇、句子结构、母语负迁移等进行归纳,有针对 性地给出例子,作出详细的分析与讲解。 关键词:汉译英句子翻译常见问题 学习任何一门外语,它的句子翻译总是处于关键的地位。对这 种情况,广大的英语教师都在探寻相对理想的解决途径。笔者根据 自己的教学经验,从考试及练习中抽取大学生英语句子翻译的例子,进行仔细分析,试着以目前学生英语句子翻译中存在的常见问题为 突破口,探索造成这些问题的原因,并且尝试总结解决这些问题的 途径,希望对学生句子翻译水平的提高起到促进作用。 1.词汇问题 词汇是学习及翻译任何一门外语的首要基础,要清楚明白地翻 译出原来句子的意思就必须有足够的词汇量作为基础。词汇量越大,翻译出来的句子就能够更加接近原句的意思。当然,在词汇量充足 的情况下,翻译出来的句子质量更高。我国的考试模式,客观题较多,主观题较少,使得教学侧重点倾向于为考试拿高分服务,在没 有本土语言环境的条件下,很多学生对所学词汇大都只是停留在认 得的阶段,就是看见一个单词能够想起它的意思,但是不能牢固掌 握单词的用法,出现以下问题。 1.1 词性拼写错误及词性误用问题 词性是任何阶段学习英语的重点,辨清词性对正确运用语言大 有帮助。一些学生在翻译句子的过程中,常常不注意分析词性或对 词的用法不明确,表现为:介词当动词用;形容词当副词用;名词 当动词用,等等。 例1:圣诞节期间,人们过得很愉快①。 during chrismas, people are happiness②. 分析:译文中的chrismas很显然是拼写错误,应该改为,christmas,且译文中的happiness明显是名词误用为形容词。当然,译文中还存在介词的不规范使用的问题。译文应该修正为:at christmas, people are happy. 1.2措词问题

英译汉段落翻译练习

Hollywood Hollywood suggests glamour, a place where the young starstruck teenagers could, with a bit of luck, fulfill their dreams. Hollywood suggests luxurious houses with vast palm-fringed swimming pools, cocktail bars and furnishings fit for a millionaire. And the big movie stars were millionaires. Many spent their fortunes on yachts, Rolls Royces and diamonds. A few of them lost their glamour quite suddenly and were left with nothing but emptiness and colossal debts. 好莱坞充满魅力。在这里,那些梦想当明星的少男少女们,若是有点儿运气,可以实现他们的梦想。好莱坞使人联想到棕榈树环绕的大游泳池、鸡尾酒吧和室内陈设时候百万富翁居住的豪华住宅。而大碗明星都是百万富翁。许多电影明星花巨资购买游艇、劳斯莱斯豪华轿车和钻石饰品。但也有少数的电影明星很快失去了光彩,剩下的只有空虚感和一屁股债。 Western (美国西部片) In those days Hollywood was like a magnet, drawing ambitious young men and women from all over the world. Most of them had only good looks to recommend them and had no acting experience —or ability— whatsoever. Occasionally they got jobs, if they were lucky enough to be noticed. Gary Cooper was one of the few who were noticed. He started as a stunt rider, and from there rose to be one of the great stars of the early Westerns.

解析汉英翻译——谈法律文献汉译英的理解与表达问题

汉英翻译——谈法律文献的汉英翻译 汉英翻译——谈法律文献汉译英的理解与表达问题 作者 王春晖 一、法律词语的理解 法律文书中的词语是构成法律文书最基本的单位。对法律文书中一些专业词语的正确理解,是翻译法律文书的前提和基础。在翻译构成中,不能正确理解原文词义是无法进行翻译的。关于词语的理解应注意下面几个问题: 1、注意词义在上下文中的一致性 一个法律词在不同的场合,译成英文有不同的含义,要正确理解法律原文的词义,必须注意词义在上下文中的一致,切不能拘泥于字面上的一致,如果保持字面上的一致,译文往往不能准确达意。请看下面句子,“如在解释上遇有分歧,应以英文本为准”。“解释”,在汉英词典上可译成:“construe”、“explanation”、“exposition”、“interpretation”,但这个句子的“解释”是指对法律条文的正式解释,选择“interpretation”,较为恰当故译成“In case of any divergence of interpretations. The English text shall prevail”。再看下面一例,“发生于缔约国一方而支付给缔约国另一方居民的特许权使用费,可以在该缔约国另一方征税”。原文中的“特许权使用费”要译的准确是不大容易的,如果译成“fee of special permitted right”不能体现出原文的含义。根据规范文件的正式解释及其在句中的作用,本句中的“特许权使用费”是指使用或有权使用专利、商标以及文学、艺术、科学著作等所支付的作为报酬的各种款项,所以把“特许权使用费”译成“royalty”才能体现出与原文的一致性。故译成英文为:“Royalties arising in a Contraction State and paid to a resident of the other Contracting State may be taxed in that Contracting State”. 2、注意同义词在译文中的不同含义
