8.1997年英译汉试题及参考译文

Do animals have rights?This is how the question is usually put.It sounds like a useful,ground-clearing way to start.(71)Actually,it isnt,because it assumes that there is an agreed account of human rights,which is something the world does not have. On one view of rights,to be sure,it necessarily follows that animals have none.72)Some philosophers argue that rights exist only within a social contract,as part of an exchange of duties and entitlements.Therefore,animals cannot have rights.The idea of punishing a tiger that kills somebody is absurd,for exactly the same reason,so is the idea that tigers have

ringhts.However,this is only one account,and by no means an uncontested one.It denies rights not only to animals but also to some people—for instance,to infants,the mentally incapable and future generations.In addition,it is unclear what force a

contract can have for people who never consented to it:how do you reply to somebody who saysI dont like this contract? The point is this without agreement on the rights of people,arguing about the rights of animals is fruitless.(73)It leads the discussion to extremes at the outset:it invites you to think that animals should be treated either with the consideration humans extend to other humans,or with no consideration at all.This is a false choice.Better to start with another,more fundamental question:is the way we treat animals a moral issue at all? Many deny it.(74)Arguing from the view that humans are different from animals in every relevant respect,extremists of this kind think that animals lie outside the area of moral choice.Any regard for the suffering of animals is seen as a mistake—a sentimental displacement of feeling that should properly be directed to other humans. This view,which holds that torturing a monkey is morally equivalent to chopping wood,may seem bravelylogical.In fact it is simply shallow:the ethical equivalent of learning to crawl—is to weigh others interests against one s own.This in turn

requires sympathy and imagination:without which there is no capacity for moral thought.To see an animal in pain is enough,for most,to engage sympathy.(75)When that happens,it is not a mistake:it is mankinds instinct for moral reasoning in action,an instinct that should be encouraged rather than laughed at. 1997年英译汉试题参考译文动物有权力吗?问题通常就是这样提出的。这种提法听起来似乎有助于把问题讲清楚。(71)事实并非如此,因为这种问法是以人们对人的权利有一种共识为基础的,而这种共识并不存在。诚然,根据对权利的一种看法,必然认为,这只是一种认识,而且是一种有争议的认识。这种认识不仅剥夺了动物的权利,而且也剥夺了某些人的权利,例如婴儿,他们是不会用脑力来思考问题的未来一代人。此外,谁也不清楚,对于从来就不同意契约的人来说,这项契约又有多少约束力,因为有人要是说我不喜欢这项契约,那你又如何作答呢? 问题的症结是,如果人们对人的权利没有一致的看法,那么争论动物的权利是徒劳无益的?(73)这种说法从一开始就将讨论引向两个极端,它使人们认为应这样对待动物:要么像对人类自身一样关切体谅,要么完全冷漠无情。这是一处错误的选择。换一种更为根本性的提法:我们对待动物的同情感用到关心动物的身上。许多人否认这种提法。(74)这类人持极端看法,

认为人与动物在各相关方面都不相同,对待动物无须考虑道德问题。任何关心动物疾苦的想法都是错误的,因为它把应该用来关心其他人的同情感用到关心动物的身上。这种观点认为,折磨猴子从道义上讲无异于劈柴。这种看法似乎是大胆的逻辑推理。实际上,这种看法是非常肤浅的,因为它逻辑混乱,所以应该摒弃。道德推理的最初级形式,和学习爬行的论理一样,是针对自身利益去权衡他人利益。这就需要同情心和将心比心的想像力,没有这两点就无法用道德观念来进行思考。看到动物受苦足以使大多数人产生同情感。(75)这种反应并不错,这是人类用道德观念进行推理的本能在起作用。这种本能应该得到鼓励,而不应遭到嘲笑。9.1998年英译汉试题及参考译文

They were by far,the largest and most distant objects that scientists had ever detected:a strip of enormous cosmic clouds some 15 billion lightyears from earth. (71)But even more important,it was the farthest that scientists had been able to look into the past,for what they were seeing were the patterns and structures that existed 15 billion yeays ago.That was just about the moment that the universe was born.What the researchers found was at once both amazing and expected:the US National Aeronautics and Space

Administrations Cosmic Background Explorer satellite—Cobe—had discovered landmark evidence that the universe did in fact begin with the primeval explosion that has become known as the Big Bang(the theory that the universe originated in an explosion from a single mass of energy). (72)The existence of the giant clouds was virtually required for the Big Bang,first put forward in the 1920s,to maintain its reign as the dominant explanation of the

cosmos.According to the theory,the universe burst into being as a submicroscopic,unimaginably dense knot of pure energy that flew outward in all directions,emitting radiation as it went,condensing into particles and then into atoms of gas.Over billions of years,the gas was compressed by gravity into galaxies,stars,plants and eventually,even humans. Cobe is designed to see just the biggest structures,but astronomers would like to see much smaller hot spots as well,the seeds of local objects like clusters and superclusters of galaxies.They shouldnt have long to wait.(73)Astrophysicists working with groundbased detectors at the South Pole and balloonborne

instruments are closing in on such structures,and may report their findings soon. (74)If the small hot spots look as expected,that will be a triumph for yet another scientific idea,a refinement of the Big Bang called the inflationary universe theory.Inflation says that very early on,the universe expanded in size by more than a trillion trillion trillion trillionfold in much less than a second,propelled by a sort of antigravity.(75)Odd though it sounds,cosmic inflation is a scientifically plausible consequence of some respected ideas in elementaryparticle physics,and many astrophysicists have been convinced for the better part of a decade that it is true. 1998年英译汉试题参考译文离地球大约150亿光年的一块狭长的巨大宇宙云系是科学家在此以前所发现的、最遥远的物体。(71)但更为重要的是,这是科学家所能观测到的最遥远的过去的景象,因为他们看到的是150亿年前宇宙云的形状和结构。那大约就是宇宙形成的时候。研究人员发现的宇宙云既令人惊讶,又是人们所期待的,因为美国国家航空航天局的宇宙背景探测者Cobe号卫星已经发现了划时代的证据,证明宇宙确实起源于最早的一次爆炸,即人们一直所称的大爆炸(此理论认为宇宙起源于一大块能量)。(72)巨大的宇宙云的

存在,实际上是使本世纪二十年代首次提出的大爆炸论是以保持其宇宙起源论的主导地位所必不可少的。根据这一理论,宇宙的形成是由一团亚微观的、极其稠密的纯能量团朝四面八方向外发散,随着放出辐射线,浓缩成粒子,然后形成气体原子。数十亿年来,这种气体受引力的压缩形成星系、恒星、行星,并最终甚至产生人类。Cobe卫星设计的目的就是观察这些的物体结构,但宇航员还想看到更为微小的热点,即像星纱中的星团和超星团这样一些局部物体的粒子。看来他们不必长期等待。(73)天体物理学家使用南极陆基探测器及球工仪器,正越来越近地观测这些云系,也许不久会报告他们的观测结果。(74)假如这些小热点看上去同预计的一致,那就意味着又一科学论说的胜利,这种论说即更完美的大爆炸论,亦称宇宙膨胀说。膨胀说告诉我们,早在很久以前,宇宙的体积在不到一秒钟内被一种反引力驱动而发生了无数倍的膨胀。(75)宇宙膨胀说虽然听似奇特,但它是基本粒子的物理学中一些公认的理论在科学上看来似乎可信的推论。许多天体物理学家七八年来一直确信这一论说是正确的。注:1.第4句中的at once意为既,又,如:The story is at once amusing and instructive.(这个故事既有趣又有教育意义。) 2.第1段最后一句中的a mass of意为一大块(团,堆)。 3.第3段最后一句中的close in on原意是从四面八方紧压过来。例如:She

had a queer feeling that the room was closing in on her.(她有一种奇特的感觉,仿佛那房间从四面八方把她紧紧围住了。)4.第3段第2句中的should表示推测的意思。

5.(71)题中的look(=see)意为:看见,作及物动词用,其宾语是关系代词that。into the past意为对过去。可见…it was the farthest that scientists had been able to look into the past…直译为:…它是科学家对过去所能看到的最遥远的东西…。10.1999年英译汉试题及参考译文

(71)While there are almost as many definitions of history as there are historians,modern practice most closely conforms to one that sees history as the attempt to recreate and explain the significant events of the past.Caught in the web of its own time and place,each generation of historians determines anew what is significant for it in the past.In this search the evidence found is always incomplete and scattered;it is also frequently partial or partisan.The irony of the historians craft is that its practitioners always know that their efforts are but contributions to an unending process. (72)Interest in historical methods has arisen less through external

challenge to the validity of history as an intellectual discipline and more from internal quarrels among historians themselves.While history once revered its affinity to literature and philosophy,the emerging social sciences seemed to afford greater opportunities for asking new questions and providing rewarding approaches to an understanding of the past.Social science methodologies had to be adapted to a discipline governed by the primacy of historical sources rather than the imperatives of the contemporary world. (73)During this transfer,traditional historical methods were augmented by additional methodologies designed to interpret the new forms of evidence in the historical study.Methodology is a term that remains inherently ambiguous in the historical profession. (74)There is no agreement whether methodology refers to the concepts peculiar to historical work in general or to the research techniques appropriate to the various branches of historical inquiry.Historians,especially those so blinded by their research interests that they have been accused oftunnel method,frequently fall victim to thetechnicist fallacy.Also common in the

natural sciences,the technicist fallacy mistakenly identifies the discipline as a whole with certain parts of its technical implementation. (75)It applies equally to traditional historians who view history as only the external and internal criticism of sources.And to social science historians who equate their activity with specific techniques. 1999年英译汉试题参考译文(71)几乎每个历史学家对史学都有自己的界定,但现代史学家的实践最趋于认为历史学是试图重现过去的重

大史实并对其做出解释。由于受时间和地点的限制,每一代史学家都要重新判断过去哪些史料对其有重要价值。在这种探索中所发现的证据总是不完整的、零碎的,而且常常是有偏见的或带有派别意识的。实际从事历史研究的人总是知道,他们的努力只不过是为永无止境的探索过程添砖加瓦,这就使其工作颇具讽刺意味。(72)人们之所以关注历史研究的方法论,主要是因为史学界内部意见不一,其次是因为外界并不认为历史是一门学问。尽管历史学曾经崇尚它与文学和哲学的相似性,但新兴的社会科学似乎为人们提出新问题和提供了解过去的有效途径开辟了更为广阔的天地。社会科学研究的方法必须改变以适应这样一条指导,即以史料为基础,而不是为当代社会之需。(73)在这种转变中,历史学家研究历史时,那些解释新史料的新方法充实了传统

的历史研究方法。在历史学界,方法论这个词从来都是模棱两可的。(74)所谓方法论究竟是指一般的历史研究研究中的特有概念,还是指历史探究中各个具体领域适用的研究手段,人们对此意见不一。史学家,尤其是那些局限于他们的研究兴趣,以致被指责为单方同研究法的史学家,常常成了单纯技术方法论的牺牲品。这种谬论在自然科学领域里也是屡见不鲜的,它错误地把整个学科与学科研究的某些操作方法等同起来。(75)这种谬论同样存在于历史传统派和历史社科派;前者认为历史就是史学界内部和外部人士对各种史料来源的评论;后者认为历史的研究是具体方法的研究。11.2000年英译汉试题及参考译文

Governments throughout the world act on the assumption that the welfare of their people depends largely on the economic strength and wealth of the community.(71)Under modern conditions,this requires varying measures of centralized control and hence the help of specialized scientists such as economists and operational research experts. (72)Furthermore,it is obvious that the strength of a countrys economy is directly bound up with the efficiency of its agriculture and industry,and that this in turn rests upon the efforts of scientists and technologists of all

kinds. It also means that governments are increasingly compelled to interfere in these sectors in order to step up production and ensure that it is utilized to the best advantage.For example,they may encourage research in various ways,including the setting up of their own research centers;they may alter the structure of education,or interfere in order to reduce the wastage of natural resources or tap resources hitherto unexploited;or they may cooperate directly in the growing number of international projects related to science,economics any industry,In any case,all such interventions are heavily dependent on scientific advice and also scientific and technological manpower of all kinds. (73)Owing to the remarkable development in masscommunications,people everywhere are feeling new wants and are being exposed to new customs and ideas,while governments are often forced to introduce still further innovations for the reasons given above. At the same time,the normal rate of social change throughout the world is taking place at a vastly accelerated speed compared with the past.For example,(74)in the early in industrialized countries of Europe

the process of industrialization—with all the farreaching changes in social patterns that followed—was spread over nearly a century,whereas nowadays a developing nation may undergo the same process in a decade or so. All this has the effect of building up unusual pressures and tensions within the community and consequently presents serious problems for the governments concerned.(75)Additional social stresses may also occur because of the population explosion or problems arising from mass migration movements—themselves made relatively easy nowadays by modern means of transport. As a result of all these factors,governments are becoming increasingly dependent on biologists and social scientists for planning the appropriate programs and putting them into effect. 2000年英译汉试题参考译文世界各国政府都认为,人民的幸福主要依赖于社会的经济实力和财富。(71)在现代条件下,这需要程度不同的中央控制,从而就需要获得诸如经济学和运筹学等领域专家的协助。(72)再者,显而易见的是一个国家的经济实力与其工农业生产效率密切相关,而效率的提高又有赖于各种科技人员的努力。这就意味着,各国政府得越来越多地干预这些部门以便提高产

量并确保产品会得到的利用。例如,政府可以用各种方法来鼓励研究,其中包括建立自己的研究中心;政府可以改革教育结构,或以政府干预来减少自然资源的消费量、开发迄今未被利用的资源;或者政府可以在日益增加的与科学、经济学和工业有关的项目中直接进行协作。无论如何,所有这些政府干预主要有赖于科学方面的咨询和各种类型的科技人才。(73)大众通讯的显著发展使各地的人们不断感到有新的需求,不断接触到新的习俗和思想,由于上述原因,政府常常得推出更多的革新。而同时,全世界的正常的社会变革速度与过去相比大大加快了。(74)在先期实现工业化的欧洲国家中,其工业化进程以及随之而来的各种深刻的社会结构变革,持续了大约一世纪之久,而如今一个发展中国家在10年左右就可能完成这个过程。(75)由于人口的猛增或大量人口流动(现代交通工具使这种流动相对容易)造成的种种问题也会对社会造成新的压力。由于这些因素的结果,政府正越来越多地依靠生物学家和社会科学家来安排适当的规划,并付诸实施。12.2001年英译汉试题及参考译文

In less than30years time the Star Trek holodeck will be a reality.Direct links between the brains nervous system and a computer will also create full sensory virtual environments,allowing virtual

vacations like those in the film Total Recall. (71)There will be television chat shows hosted by robots,and cars with pollution monitors that will disable them when they offend.(72)Children will play with dolls equipped with personality https://www.sodocs.net/doc/477869433.html,puters with

in-built personalities will be regarded as workmates rather than tools,relaxation will be in front of smell-television,and digital age will have arrived. According to BT s futurologist,Ian Pearson,these are among the developments scheduled for the first few decades of the new millennium(a period of 1000years),when supercomputers will dramatically accelerate progress in all areas of life. (73)Pearson has pieced together the work of hundreds of researchers around the world to produce a unique millennium technology calendar that gives the latest dates when we can expect hundreds or key breakthroughs and discoveries to take place.Some of the biggest developments will be in medicine,including an extended life expectancy and dozens of artificial organs coming into use between now and 2040. Pearson also predicts a breakthrough in computer-human links.By linking

directly to our nervous system,computers could pick up what we feel and,hopefully,simulate feeling too so that we can start to develop full sensory environments,rather like the holidays in Total Recall or the Star Trek holodeck,he says.(74)But that,Pearson points out,is only the start of man-machine integration:It will be the beginning of the long process of integration that will ultimately lead to a fully electronic human before the end of the next century. Through his research,Pearson is able to put dates to most of the breakthroughs that can be predicted.However,there are still no forecasts for when faster-that-light travel will be available,or when human cloning will be perfected,or when time travel will be possible.But he does expect social problems as a result of technological advances.A boom in neighborhood surveillance cameras will,for example,cause problems in2010,while the arrival of synthetic lifelike robots will mean people may not be able to distinguish between their human friends and the droids.(75)And home appliances will also become so smart that controlling and operating them will result in the

breakout of a new psychological disorder—kitchen rage. 2001年英译汉试题参考译文再过不到30年星球旅行太

空平台将成为现实。大脑神经系统与计算机的直接连接也将创造出完全传感的实际环境,使得实际的度假和电影全面回顾中的度假一模一样。(71)届时,将出现由机器人主持的电视谈话节目以及装有污染监控器的汽车,一旦这些汽车排污超标(违规),监控器就会使其停驶。(72)儿童将与装有个性化芯片的玩具娃娃玩耍,具有个性内置的计算机将被视为工作伙伴而不是工具,人们将在气味电视前休闲,这时数字时代就来到了。根据英国电讯公司的未来学家伊恩·皮尔逊的看法,上述种种科研成就均属新千年的最初几十年内的开发项目之列,届时超级计算机将大大加快人类生活各个领域里的进步。(73)皮尔逊汇集世界各地数百位研究人员的成果,编制了一个独特的新技术千年历,它列出了人们有望看到达数百项重大突破和发现的最晚日期。一些最重大的开发将会发生在医学中,其中包括延长人的估计寿命和从现在到2040年间将投入使用的几十种人造器官。

皮尔逊逊预言了电脑与人各种连接的突破。通过直接与我们的神经系统相连接,电脑能够了解到我们的感情并且有望激发我们的情感,这样我们就能着手开发完全传感的环境,更类似于电影全面回顾或星球旅行太空平台中的度假。(74)

但皮尔逊指出,这个突破仅仅是人机一体化的开始:它是人

机一体化漫长之路的第一步,最终会使人们在下世纪末之前就研制出完全电子化的仿真人。经过研究,皮尔迩确定可以预测到的大多数突破的日期。然而,仍然不能预报快于光速的旅行何时到来,或何时将完成克隆人,或何时可以实现遨游过去或将来的时间旅行。但皮尔逊确实预料到技术进步所引起的社会问题。例如,邻里电子监控摄像机的飞速推广将在2010年引起许多社会问题,而栩栩如生的人造机器人的问世将意味着人们可能无法把他们的真人朋友和这类机器人区别开来。(75)家用电器将会变得如此智能化,以至于控制和操作它们会引发一种新的心理疾病———厨房狂躁。

考研英语一翻译真题汇总

1990 年英译汉试题 People have wondered for a long time how their personalities,and behaviors are formed. It is not easy to explain why one person is intelligent and another is not,or why one is cooperative and another is competitive. Social scientists are,of course,extremely interested in these types of questions. (61)They want to explain why we possess certain characteristics and exhibit certain behaviors. There are no clear answers yet,but two distinct schools of thought on the matter have developed. As one might expect,the two approaches are very different from each other. The controversy is often conveniently referred to as‖nature vs. nurture‖. (62)Those who support the ―nature‖side of the conflict believe that our personalities and behavior patterns are largely determined by biological factors. (63)That our environment has little, if anything,to do with our abilities,characteristics and behavior is central to this theory. Taken to an extreme,this theory maintains that our behavior is predetermined to such a great degree that we are almost completely governed by our instincts. Those who support the ―nurture‖ theory,that is,they advocate education,are often called behaviorists. They claim that our environment is more important than our biologically based instincts in determining how we will act. A behaviorist,B.F. Skinner,sees humans as beings whose behavior is almost completely shaped by their surroundings. The behaviorists maintain that,like machines,humans respond to environmental stimuli as the basis of their behavior. Let us examine the different explanations about one human characteristic,intelligence, offered by the two theories. Supporters of the ―nature‖theory insist that we are born with a certain capacity for learning that is biologically determined. Needless to say,they don‘t believe that factors in the environment have much influence on what is basically a predetermined characteristic. On the other hand,behaviorists argue that our intelligence levels are the product of our experiences. (64)Behaviorists suggest that the child who is raised in an environment where there are many stimuli which develop his or her capacity for appropriate responses will experience greater intellectual development. The social and political implications of these two theories are profound. In the United States, blacks often score below whites on standardized intelligence tests. This leads some ―nature‖ proponents to conclude that blacks are biologically inferior to whites. (65)Behaviorists,in contrast, say that differences in scores are due to the fact that blacks are often deprived of many of the educational and other environmental advantages that whites enjoy. Most people think neither of these theories can yet fully explain human behavior. 1991 年英译汉试题 The fact is that the energy crisis,which has suddenly been officially announced,has been with us for a long time now,and will be with us for an even longer time. Whether Arab oil flows freely or not,it is clear to everyone that world industry cannot be allowed to depend on so fragile a base. (71)The supply of oil can be shut off unexpectedly at any time,and in any case,the oil wells will all run dry in thirty years or so at the present rate of use. (72)New sources of energy must be found,and this will take time,but it is not likely to result in any situation that will ever restore that sense of cheap and plentiful energy we have had in the times past. For an indefinite period from here on,mankind is going to advance cautiously,and consider itself lucky that it can advance at all. To make the situation worse,there is as yet no sign that any slowing of the world‘s population is in sight. Although the birthrate has dropped in some nations,including the United States,the population of the world seems sure to pass six billion and perhaps even seven billion as the twenty-first century opens. (73)The food supply will not increase nearly enough to match this,which means that we are heading into a crisis in the matter of producing and marketing food. Taking all this into account,what might we reasonably estimate supermarkets to be like in the year2001? To begin with,the world food supply is going to become steadily tighter over the next thirty years—even here in the United States.By2001,the population of the United States will be at least two hundred fifty million and possibly two hundred seventy million,and the nation will find it difficult to expand food production to fill the additional mouths. (74)This will be particularly true since energy pinch will make it difficult to continue agriculture in the high energy American fashion that makes it possible to combine few farmers with high yields. It seems almost certain that by2001the United States will no longer be a great food exporting nation and that,if necessity forces exports,it will be at the price of belt tightening at home. In fact,as food items will end to decline in quality and decrease in variety,there is very likely to be increasing use of flavouring additives. (75)Until such time as mankind has the sense to lower its population

(15 points) Most people would define optimism as endlessly happ y, with a glass that’s perpetually half fall. But that’s exactly the kind of false deerfulness that positive psychologists wouldn’t recommend. “Healthy optimists means being in touch with reality.” says Tal Ben-Shahar, a Harvard professor, According to Ben- Shalar,realistic optimists are these who make the best of things that happen, but not those who believe everything happens for the best. Ben-Shalar uses three optimistic exercisers. When he feels down-sag, after giving a bad lecture-he grants himself permission to be human. He reminds himself that mot every lecture can be a Nobel winner; some will be less effective than others. Next is reconstruction, He analyzes the weak lecture, leaning lessons, for the future about what works and wh at doesn’t.

考研英语翻译方法(新题型)

常用翻译技巧总结 翻译题里考察三方面内容: 1、专有名词(如operational research expert)、习惯用法(如depend on)及多义词的翻译(如school、set的多义) 2、一般性翻译技巧:包括词义选择,词序调整,词性转换和增词法等等 3、具体句型(定从、状从、主从、宾从、表从、同位从、强调结构、并列、比较、倒装、插入、被动、否定等) 其中2、3是大考点,具体内容可在论坛下XDF的翻译笔记来看,在此不赘述。 可看出,应对翻译题的主要武器是翻译技巧,下面正式进入正题(常用方法、被动语态译法、形容词译法、举例详解) 一、常用方法 二、 英汉两种语言在句法、词汇、修辞等方面均存在着很大的差异,因此在进行英汉互译时必然会遇到很多困难,需要有一定的翻译技巧作指导。常用的翻译技巧有增译法、省译法、转换法、拆句法、合并法、正译法、反译法、倒置法、包孕法、插入法、重组法和综合法等。这些技巧不但可以运用于笔译之中,也可以运用于口译过程中,而且应该用得更加熟练。 1增译法:指根据英汉两种语言不同的思维方式、语言习惯和表达方式,在翻译时增添一些词、短句或句子,以便更准确地表达出原文所包含的意义。这种方式多半用在汉译英里。汉语无主句较多,而英语句子一般都要有主语,所以在翻译汉语无主句的时候,除了少数可用英语无主句、被动语态或“There be…”结构来翻译以外,一般都要根据语境补出主语,使句子完整。英汉两种语言在名词、代词、连词、介词和冠词的使用方法上也存在很大差别。英语中代词使用频率较高,凡说到人的器官和归某人所有的或与某人有关的事物时,必须在前面加上物主代词。因此,在汉译英时需要增补物主代词,而在英译汉时又需要根据情况适当地删减。英语词与词、词组与词组以及句子与句子的逻辑关系一般用连词来表示,而汉语则往往通过上下文和语序来表示这种关系。因此,在汉译英时常常需要增补连词。英语句子离不开介词和冠词。另外,在翻译时还要注意增补一些原文中暗含而没有明言的词语和一些概括性、注释性的词语,以确保译文意思的完整。总之,通过增译,一是保证译文语法结构的完整,二是保证译文意思的明确。如: (1) What about calling him right away? 马上给他打个电话,你觉得如何?(增译主语和谓语) (2) If only I could see the realization of the four modernizations. 要是我能看到四个现代化实现该有多好啊!(增译主句) (3) Indeed, the reverse is true 实际情况恰好相反。(增译名词) (4)就是法西斯国家本国的人民也被剥夺了人权。 Even the people in the fascist countries were stripped of their human rights.(增译物主代词) (5)只许州官放火,不许百姓点灯。 While the magistrates were free to burn down house, the common people were forbidden to light

(10 points) Since the days of Aristotle, a search for universal principles has characterized the scientific enterprise. In some ways, this quest for commonalities defines science. Newton’s laws of motion and Darwinian evolution each bind a host of different phenomena into a single explicatory frame work. (1)In physics, one approach takes this impulse for unification to its extreme, and seeks a theory of everything—a single generative equation for all we see. It is beco mi ng less clear, however, that such a theory would be a simplification, given the dimensions and universes that it might entail, nonetheless, unification of sorts remains a major goal. This tendency in the natural sciences has long been evident in the social sciences too. (2)Here, Darwinism seems to offer justification for it all humans share common origins it seems reasonable to suppose that cultural diversity could also be traced to more constrained beginnings. Just as the bewildering

考研英语翻译模拟试题及答案解析 (1)Any discussion of the American educational system would be less than complete if it did not mention the emphasis that many colleges and universities place upon the nonacademic, social,“extracurricular”aspect of education, often defined as personal growth. Perhaps a useful way of viewing the notion of personal growth would be to picture the very large and general term“education” as being all-embracing, including as subsets within it academic and nonacademic components. This may be one of the most difficult concepts to convey to someone who is not intimately familiar with American higher education. Few educational systems in other countries place the same emphasis on this blend of academic and personal education. The majority of colleges and universities in the United States make some attempt to integrate personal and intellectual growth in the undergraduate years. (2) If the ultimate goal of undergraduate education in America were simply to convey a set body of knowledge, the term of studies could undoubtedly be reduced. Yet the terms of studies are extended in order to give students a chance to grow and develop in other ways.

2021考研英语翻译题做题技巧

2021考研英语翻译题做题技巧? 一、理解英语原文,拆分语法结构 由于英语语言具有“形合”的特点,也就是说,英语句子无论多么复杂,都是通过一些语法手段和逻辑手段连接起来的“像葡萄藤一样”的结构。如果搞不清楚句子的语法结构,考生是很难做出正确的翻译的。因此在翻译句子之前,须先通读全句,一边读一边拆分句子的语法结构,这是正式动笔翻译之前的一项重要准备工作。但是考英语一的同学们要注意,英语一翻译题没有要通读全文,一般只读需要翻译的句子就可以。 那么怎么拆分呢?具体来讲,大家可以寻找下面一些“信号词”来对英语句子进行拆分,进而更加有效地理解英语原文。 1.基本原则: 把主句和从句拆分出来,把主干部分和修饰部分拆分出来。 2.连词: 如and,or,but,yet,for等并列连词连接着并列句还有连接状语从句的连接词,如:when,as,since,until,before,after,where,because,since,thought,although,sothat,......等等,它们是考生要寻找的第一大拆分点。 3.关系词: 如连接名词性从句的who,whom,whose,what,which,whatever,whichever 等关系代词和when,where,how,why等关系副词还有连接定语从句的关系代词,如who,which,that,whom,whose等等,它们是第二大拆分点。 4.标点符号: 标点符号常常断开句子的主干和修饰部分,也是一个明显的拆分点。 5.除此之外,介词on,in,with,at,of,to等引导的介词短语,不定式符号to,分词结构也可以作为拆分点。 二、运用翻译策略,组合汉语译文 正确理解原文后,接下来就是翻译。翻译时,关键是综合运用各种翻译方法将英文的原意忠实地表达出来。主要有如下翻译技巧。 1.词汇的增减转

Rather than cloaking his exit in the usual vague excuses, he came right out and said he was leaving to pursue my goal of running a company. Broadcasting his ambition was very much my decision, McGee says. Within two weeks, he was talking for the first time with the board of Hartford Financial Services Group, which named him CEO and chairman on September 29. 当八月份,Liam McGee 以总裁的身份从美国银行离职的时候,他的解释出人意料的直白。他没有忸怩的用平常的模糊的理由来遮掩他的离开,他很坦诚的讲他离开就是为了去追求他经营一家公司的目标。McGee 说宣扬自己的目标就是自己的决定。两周后,他第一次和Hartford Financial Services Group 的董事会第一次会谈,这家公司在9 月29 日提名他为董事会主席和CEO. McGee says leaving without a position lined up gave him time to reflect on what kind of company he wanted to run. It also sent a clear message to the outside world about his aspirations. And McGee isn t alone. In recent weeks the No.2 executives atAvonand American Express quit with the explanation that they were looking for a CEO post. As boards scrutinize succession plans in response to shareholder pressure, executives who don t get the nod also may wish to move on. A turbulent business environment also has senior managers cautious of letting vague pronouncements cloud their reputations. 他说在离开的时候并没有找好后面的职位(下家),使他有时间去反思他到底想去经营一家

考研英语翻译练习题:全球变暖

Global warming, a natural phenomenon,has been aheated topic in recent years. Global warming willredistribute global rainfall, make glacier andpermafrost melt and sea level rise, which not onlydoes harm to the balance of natural ecosystem, butalso threats human's food supply and livingenvironment. It's interesting that global warming is bad for some plac es but good for otherregions. For example, because temperature in cold areas in Antarctic and Arctic goes up,glacier will melt, thus making the habitat of animals decrease. While in the northeast ofChina, becoming warm means being able to plant grains of winter, thus raising agriculturalrevenue. 参考翻译 全球气候变暖是近年来全球一直热议的话题,是一种“自然现象”。全球变暧会使全球降水量重新分配,冰川(glacier)和冻土(permafrost)消融,海平面上升等,既危害自然生态系统的平衡,更威胁人类的食物供应和居住环境。有一个有趣的现象,就是全球变暧对有些地区是坏事,而对其他地区却是好事,比如,南北极的寒冷地区由于温度升高,导致冰川融化,动物栖息地减少。而在中国东北地区,天气变暖意味着可以种植冬季农作物,从而增加农业收入。 1.危害自然生态系统的平衡:可译为do harm to thebalance of natural ecosystem 。 2.威胁:可直接译为threat ,也可译为cause negativeeffect on 。 3.有一个有趣的现象:此处可以使用It's interesting that 引导的从句来翻译。 4.对于…是坏事/好事:可译为be bad/good for... 5.种植冬季农作物:可译为plant grains of winter 。 6.增加农业收入:可译为raise agricultural revenue 或increase agricultural income 。其中revenue 和income 都意为“收入,收益”。

2018年考研英语翻译练习题汇总

2018年考研英语翻译练习题汇总 要攻克考研英语翻译就必须要练习对句子的拆分解读能力,加强对词汇多义的把握,踩准得分点,最好的方法就是大家多练习对单句的细分解读,日积月累,翻译能力必定提升。凯程网考研频道以真题为例,和大家分享句子的细分解读,从词汇到句式,希望大家多练练。 He assert,also, that his power to follow a long and purely abstract train of thought was very limited, //for which reason he felt certain that he never could have succeeded with mathematics. (33 words) 词汇要点: 1) assert//v. 肯定地说,断言,维护,坚持。 2) train//n. 火车;一系列 结构要点: 1) 主句部分是He assert that…,that后面连接一个宾语从句; 2) that宾语从句的主干是his power…was verylimited; 3) which引导一个非限定性定语从句,which先行词是前面his power…was limited这个宾语从句; 4) hefelt certain后面还有一个that宾语从句。 汉译逻辑要点: 1) that his power…was very limited是that宾语从句的主干,可以翻译为:他的能力十分有限。 2) train ofsth. 是“一系列”的意思,train of thought是指“一系列思维”,就是“思路”。 3) to follow atrain of thought直译是“跟随自己的思路”,就是“进行思维”的意思。所以,to follow a long and purely abstract train of thought就可以翻译为:进行长时间纯抽象思维。因为这个不定式短语修饰power(能力),可以放到“能力”前面去翻译:进行长时间纯抽象思维的能力。 4) for which reason中的which修饰的是上文“his power…was limited,他进行长时间抽象思维的能力非常有限”,可以翻译为“由于这个原因”。 5) he felt certain that he never could have succeeded with mathematics中never could have succeeded…是英语的一种虚拟语气“本来就不该成功”;never否定程度很重,可以用汉语的“根本不可能会成功”来表达。 完整译文: 他还坚持认为自己进行长时间纯抽象思维的能力十分有限,由此他认定自己在数学方面根本不可能有大的作为。 He adds humbly that perhaps he was “superior //to the common run of men //innoticing things which easily escape attention, //and in observing them carefully.”(26 words) 词汇要点: 1) humbly//adv. 恭顺地,谦卑地 2) superior//adj. 优秀的,优等的 结构要点: 1) 主句部分是He adds …that…, 2) that宾语从句的主干是he was superior to…;
