大学英语四级翻译常见考点

大学英语四级翻译常见考点 常见语法考点 (一)虚拟语气 应该注意以下几种虚拟语气的形式: 1.由“ if ”引导的虚拟句子 (1)与现在的事实相反:(If ... + were/did...,...+ would do...) If I were you, I would marry him. 如果我是你,就会嫁给他。 (2)与过去的事实相反:(If ... + had done..., ... +would have done...) If you had worked hard, you would have passed the exam. 如果你用功学习,就会通过考试了。(3)与将来的事实可能相反:(If ...+ should do...,...+ would do...) If it should rain tomorrow, what would you do? 如果明天下雨,你怎么办? 2.用在表示要求、建议、命令等的名词从句中 从句谓语形式为:“...(should ) + do sth.”(在美语中should常省去)。类似用法的动词有:insist(坚持),suggest(建议),order(命令),propose(建议),demand(要求),command (命令),advise(建议),desire(要求、请求),request(请求),require(需要、要求),ask(要求),prefer(宁愿),recommend(推荐),arrange(安排),advocate(拥护、提倡),maintain(坚决主张)等后面的宾语从句中。 3.用在“It + be + important (necessary, natural, essential, strange, absur d, amazing, annoying, desirable, surprising, vital, advisable, anxious, compulsory, crucial, imperative, eager, fitting, possible, impossible, improper, obligatory, probable, preferable, strange, urgent等,以及insisted, suggested, ordered, requested, arranged, recommended等) + that ...”结构中的that 引导的主语从句中。 4.用在It is time that ... 结构中,表示“该干某事了”,含建议的意思,用动词过去式。It is time (that) we went to bed. 咱们该睡觉了。 注意: time 前可加about(表示“大约”)或high(表示“强调”)等。 5.wish后宾语从句中的虚拟语气 从句用一般过去时或过去进行时表示一种与现在事实相反的愿望:用过去完成时或过去完成进行时表示与过去事实相反的愿望:若用would则表示请求或对现状不满希望将来有所改变等。If only的用法和I wish等基本相同,只是更富有感情色彩。 6.as if/as though方式状语从句中的虚拟语气

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。

大学英语四级改革新题型段落翻译题 Part Ⅳ Translation (30 minutes)(原单句汉译英调整为段落汉译英。翻译内容涉及中国的历史、文化、经济、社会发展等。四级长度为140-160个汉字。) Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English. You should write your answer on Answer Sheet 2. 中国的传统节庆膳食是节日必不可少的伴侣。例如,我国的端午节(the Dragon Boat Festival)是纪念古代诗人屈原的日子。那一天,人们通常要赛龙舟、吃粽子(zongzi)。中秋节是观赏满月的日子。圆圆的月亮象征着圆满,象征着家庭团聚。因此,中秋节(The Mid-autumn Festival)的特制食品是一种圆形的月饼。春节是中国的农历新年(the Chinese lunar New Year?s holiday),除了常见的家禽和肉类之外,人们还要按各自的地方习俗烹制传统食物,如铰子和年糕。 参考答案 Traditional Chinese holiday meals are indispensable on some festivals. For example, the Dragon Boat Festival is a day established in memory of the ancient poet Qu Yuan and people usually hold dragon boat races and eat zongzi, or rice dumpling on that day. The Mid-autumn Festival is an occasion for viewing the full moon. The round moon is a symbol for completeness and family reunion. The special food of the day is yuebing, a round cake known as the mooncake. The Spring Festival is the Chinese lunar New Year?s holiday. Besides the popular poultry and meat, people cook traditional food according to regional customs, for example, jiaozi, or boiled dumplings, and niangao, or the new year cake. 难点精析 ■ 1.中国的传统节庆膳食:翻译为Traditional Chinese holiday meals,其中“节庆膳食”直接译为holiday meals , 即可,翻译时注意“中国的”和“传统”的顺序。 2.纪念:翻译为介词短语in memory of,修饰前面的a day。 ■ 3.赛龙舟:翻译为hold dragon boat races,其中hold意为“举行”,“举行龙舟比赛”即“赛龙舟”。 4.观赏满月:“满月”即fMlmoon,此处的“观赏”可以译为viewing,也可以用enjoying或watching表示。 5.象征着家庭团聚:“象征”翻译为系表结构is a symbol for,也可以用动词symbolize表示,“家庭团聚”翻译:为family reunion 即可。 Part Ⅳ Translation (30 minutes)(原单句汉译英调整为段落汉译英。翻译内容涉及中国的历史、文化、经济、社会发展等。四级长度为140-160个汉字。)

大学英语四级翻译答题技巧及答题步骤1(精)

一、答题技巧现代翻译理论认为,句子是最重要的翻译单位。大学英语四级考试中的翻译题型也是以句子翻(一)分句、合句法很多情况下,翻译句子的时候,需要调整原来的句子结构,分句法和合句法是调整原文句子的两种1.分句法汉译英时,需要分译的句子多数是长句,或者是结构复杂的复句。这种句子如果译成一个长句(1)从主语变换处断句[例1]与会者对这个问题的观点差别太大,以致发生了争吵,一时会场的气氛紧张起来。The opinions of the attendants about this issue were far from unanimous so that some of th(2)从关联词(如转折处断句[例2]昨天出了好几起交通事故,或许是因为有大雾的缘故吧!There were several traffic accidents yesterday.Maybe because of the heavy fog.[例7]老年人有长处,但也有很大的弱点,老年人容易固执,因此老年人也要有点自觉性。Old people have strengths but also great weaknesses--they tend to be stubborn,for example原文的几个短旬可被分为两个部分,后面一部分补充说明前面一部分的“弱点”。使用破折号可以简单(3)从主语变换处合译[例8]不注意眼睛的休息,长时间近距离用眼或长期的不正确姿势,会使人眼处于视疲劳状态,进而形成If they are used for a long time without rest,or kept close to the object or with your bo(二)转句译法汉语复句英译时,可以按照汉语复句原有的句内关系进行翻译。但如果按汉语顺序翻译,出现[例1]任何一个人,如果不努力学习新东西,都会被时代所淘汰。Any person who refuses to learn new things will be left behind the times.原句的状语修饰关系在译成英文时可转译为定语从句。[例2]当渔夫沿着小溪捕鱼时,无意中到了一个地方,只见两岸都是桃林,桃花如霞,绿草如茵。 指在翻译过程中对语序进行的转换调整。语序是指句子成分的排列次序。汉语是分析型的语言,语1.定语的换序汉语中定语通常放在名词之前。即使几个定语连用或很长的词组作定语,也都要放在名词之前。而[例1]他就是那位著名的美国科学家。He is the distinguished American scientist.[例2]上海是我国最大的工业基地之一。Shanghai is one of the largest industrial bases in our country.[例3]差不多同时开放的几千朵美丽的红玫瑰,在春季里吸引了许多人到公园来。Thousands of beautiful red roses that blossom almost at the same time make the park the gr翻译时,定语应尽量与中心词靠近。[例4]我参观了青岛四方区,自我离开该区

大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习(39)

大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习(39) 1.Thisisyet_________________(两国人民的又一个共同点). 2.Hisscientificworks_______________(在英语国家得到广泛阅读). 3.Revolutionmeanstheemancipationoftheproductiveforces,_____________(改革也是解放生产力). 4.Heisoptimistic________________(对现时信息产业的发展状况). 5.Workinallfieldsshouldbesubordinatedtoand________________(服务于经济发展的进程). 1.anothercommonpointbetweenthepeopleofourtwocountries 解析:本题考查通过增补介词使译文的意思更完整。虽然原文没有和between相对应的词,但是"共同点"是两国人民之间在某方面进行比较的结果,所以增补between之后,符合英语表达习惯。增词法也是汉译英中常用技巧之一,再如:她以教书为业。(Sheisateacherbyoccupation.)我已重新考虑了那件事。(I'vehadsecondthoughtonthatmatter.) 2.werewidelyreadinEnglish-speakingcountries 解析:若是按照字面翻译,这句话很可能被译为werewidelyreadinEnglishcountries。但是原文中"英语国家"的含义是"讲英语的国家"。这体现了英汉表达差异。请考生看下面这句话的英译:我卖掉了彩电。/IsoldoutmycolorTV.这句译文错误在于,没弄清"彩电"的含义。"彩电"有两层意思:一是指具体的实物,即彩色电视机colorTVset;二是指屏幕上出现的影像,即彩色电视colorTV。而句子中卖掉的只能是机器,具体的实物。 3.andsodoesreform 解析:本题意为:革命是解放生产力,改革也是解放生产力。考点有二:第一,考查词性转移。原文中"解放"用作动词,"生产力"作宾语。译文中处理成名词短语"对生产力的解放"。第二,考查省译法。我们不能把原文译成andreformalsomeanstheemancipationoftheproductiveforces,这种结构显得臃肿累赘。为避免重复,可以选用andsodoes...来代替这个动宾结构。 4.aboutthepresentdevelopmentofinformationindustry 解析:"对......表示乐观"可以用句型beoptimisticaboutsth.。这句话不能译成aboutthestatusofthepresentdevelopmentofinformationindustry。"状况"是一个范畴词,没有实际含义,可省略不译。 5.servetheeconomicdevelopment 解析:"服务于......"即"为......服务",所以要用servesb./sth.的结构,不能译成beservedto。"进程"也是一个范畴词,可以省略不译。另外,besubordinatedto是一个固定结构,含义是"从属于......,隶属于......"。 声明:此资源由本人收集整理于网络,只用于交流学习,请勿用作它途。如有侵权,请联系,删除处理。
