中国农业

中国是一个农业大国,也是世界农业起源地之一。水稻和小麦等农作物都原产自中国。新中国成立后,政府十分重视农业生产,不断加大农业投入,加速了农业生产的现代化进程。因此,中国农业取得了辉煌的成就。中国各种农产品的产量增长很快,谷物、棉花、花生(Peanut)的总产量均居世界首位。依靠占世界不足10%的耕地(cultivatable land),中国养活了世界1/5以上的人口。

China is a big agricultural country and also one of the world's agricultural origins.

Crops such as rice and wheat were first produced in China.

After the founding of New China, the government has been paying close attention to

agriculture and increasing investment to speed up the modernization of agricultural production. Therefore, China has made great achievements in agriculture.

The outputs of

various agricultural products grow at a fast rate and the total output of grains,cotton and peanuts tops the world. With less than ten percent of the world's cultivatable China

manages to feed over one-fifth of the world's population.

1.第2句为无被动标识词的被动句,翻译时要用被动语态,可译作

Crops such as rice and wheat were firstproduced in China。

2.第3句中的动作“十分重视”、“不断加大”是“新中国成立后”持续发生的动作,故该句用现在完成进行时态。仔细分析发现,“十分重视……,不断加大……”为两个并列的动作作谓语,而“加速了……”则表结果,可处理为结果状语,故本句译为 the govemrnent has been paying close attention to... and increasing... to speedup…。

3.第4句中的“中国农业取得了辉煌的成就”可理解为“中国在农业方面取得了成就”,故可译为

China has madegreat achievements in agriculture。该句也可用“辉煌的成就”作主语,用被动语态表达,译作greatachievements have been made in China's agriculture。

4.翻译最后一句“依靠……,中国……”时,可将后半句处理成主句,前半句为状语,用介词短语

With less thanten parent of the world's cultivatable land来表达,使句子主次分明、结构简洁紧凑。

大学英语四级考试翻译的答题要点

大学英语四级考试翻译的答题要点 翻译作为语言听、说、读、写、译五大能力之一,新大纲就六级阶段的要求提出,学生应“能借助词典将难度略低于课文的英语短文译成汉语,理解正确、译文达意,译速为每小时350个英语单词。能借助词典将内容熟悉的汉语文字材料译成英语,译文达意,无重大语言错误,译速为每小时300个汉字。”英译汉是 1996年大学英语考试委员会公布的第一批新题型中的一类,属主观题,该题型从属于阅读理解部分,从阅读理解的四篇短文中选取5个片断,大部分是一个较长、较复杂的句子,但有时也有2-3个句子组成的一个段落或片断。要求考生在15分钟内将该5题译成汉语,占分10%,每题2分。根据指令提示,翻译时还可回到前面参阅所译句子的有关上下文。 两种语言的对译讲究的是“信、达、雅”,这是翻译题评分的基本原则。“信”即忠实于原文;“达”即达意,即译文与原文的语义上的一致或等同,这是评分的重要原则,考生是否理解了原文,是否忠实于原文,都要根据译文的内容来作评判,所以“达”是根本。考试意义上的翻译对“雅”的要求不同于文学翻译,要求并不太高,只是译文应通顺流畅,符合译文语言的表达习惯。 一、英译汉样题、参考答案及评分标准 英译汉题型有详细、具体的评分标准,每道题的2分被统一细化为四个0.5分,三个0.5用以判给题中的三个语言点,即每题就语言而言有三个得分点,一个0.5分判给整句译文的语言结构是否通顺流畅、符合汉语习惯。 二、答题要点与真题解析 英译汉必须以理解原文为前提,而短文中句子或段落片段的翻译还必须基于对原文上下文的理解,所以英译汉试题解题的第一要点是: 正确理解短文,精确理解所译部分,准确分析该部分的句法结构和表意逻辑关系。要将一道英译汉题做好,必须精确地理解所需翻译的那部分句子,而精确的理解必须以正确理解短文为前提,有时还须准确地对有关句子的结构作语法分析,同时,还必须理清该部分在语意方面有几个层次及各层次间的先后关系。 在准确理解原文后,要注意正确、恰当地用汉语将原文各层次的语意以与原来相同的先后关系表达出来,这又需要了解一些译文处理技巧,要不然,在英语的影响下,你的译文形似汉语,读起来仍“洋味十足”。所以解答汉译英的第二要点是: 学会用符合习惯的标准汉语表述原文。几种在翻译中经常用到的避免英式汉语的方法是: (1)拆译法。选作英译汉试题的英语句子通常都较复杂,往往从句套从句,翻成译语要把这些从句拆开,翻成一句句相对独立的汉语句子——这么做使理清各语意层次的先后关系显得非常重要。 (2)合译法。英语中定语从句、同位语从句及用作定语的介词短语、分词短语和不定短语常后置在名词中心词之后,翻译时有时需要将这些后置修饰语合并到名词中心词的前置定语之中。 (3)重组法。英语句子结构越复杂,与以短句为特点的汉语表达习惯的差距越大,这时需要采用重组概念,改变一种角度,对原文各层次的语意进行重组,以恰到好处、通顺地道的汉语正确表达原文的信息。 根据英译汉评分标准,每道题有四个得分点,所以在英译汉答题时,还要注意第三点: 分析原文各题的得分点,重点理解,重点表达。从样题及历年英译汉真题实例中,我们发现,得分点一般都是一些特定的短语、句式或与短文要点密切相关的重要词语。对于原文中的这些语言点,考生必须结合上下文反复琢磨,求得理解上的准确,而后通过上面介绍的几种翻译处理技巧,恰当地将它们用汉语表达出来。 以下是英译汉真题实例解析。

(完整版)历年大学英语四级翻译真题

历年四级段落型翻译真题 Roger Li 2014年6月大学英语四级翻译 试卷一:中餐 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。 译文: Many people like Chinese food. In China, cooking is viewed as not only a skill but also a form of art. The well-prepared Chinese food is both delicious and good-looking. Although cooking methods and food ingredients vary wildly in different places of China, it is common for good cuisine to take color, flavor, taste and nutrition into account. Since food is crucial to health, a good chef is insistently trying to seek balance between cereal, meat and vegetable, and accordingly Chinese food is delicious as well as healthy. 试卷二:信息技术 信息技术(Information Technology),正在飞速发展,中国公民也越来越重视信息技术,有些学校甚至将信息技术作为必修课程,对这一现象大家持不同观点。一部分人认为这是没有必要的,学生就应该学习传统的课程。另一部分人认为这是应该的,中国就应该与时俱进。不管怎样,信息技术引起广大人民的重视是一件好事。 译文: As Chinese citizens are attaching increasing importance to the rapidly developing Information Technology, some colleges even set it as a compulsory course. In regard to this, people hold different opinions. Some people view it as unnecessary move, for students should learn the traditional curriculum. Other thinks it is a need, because China should keep pace with the times. Anyway, it is a good thing that Information Technology arouses public concern. 试卷三:茶文化 "你要茶还是咖啡?"是用餐人常被问到的问题,许多西方人会选咖啡,而中国人则会选茶,相传,中国的一位帝王于五千年前发现了茶,并用来治病,在明清(the qing dynasties)期间,茶馆遍布全国,饮茶在六世纪传到日本,但直到18世纪才传到欧美,如今,茶是世界上最流行的饮料(beverage)之一,茶是中国的瑰宝。也是中国传统和文化的重要组成部分。译文: "Would you like tea or coffee?" That’s a question people often asked when having meal. Most westerners would choose coffee, while the Chinese would like to choose tea. According to legend, tea was discovered by a Chinese emperor five thousand years ago, and then was used to cure disease. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, tea houses were all over the country. Tea drinking spread to Japan in the 6th century, but it was not until the 18th century does it spread to Europe and America. Nowadays, tea is one of the most popular beverages 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 中国结最初是由手工艺人发明的,经过数百年不断的改进,已经成为一种优雅多彩的艺术和工艺。在古代,人们用它来记录事件,但现在主要是用于装饰的目的。“结”在中文里

2018年12月大学英语四级翻译真题汇总 【手机改变阅读方式】 由于通信网络的快速发展,中国智能手机用户数量近年来以惊人的速度增长。这极大地改变了许多人的阅读方式。他们现在经常在智能手机上看新闻和文章,而不买传统报刊。大量移动应用程序(apps)的开发使人们能用手机阅读小说和其他形式的文学作品。因此,纸质书籍的销售受到了影响。但调查显示,尽管智能手机阅读市场稳步增长,超半数成年人仍喜欢读纸质书。(164字) In recent years, the number of Chinese smartphone users has been growing at an alarming rate as the result of the rapid development of communication networks. This has dramatically changed the ways of reading for many people. They now often read news and articles on their smartphones instead of buying traditional newspapers. The development of a large number of mobile apps enables people to read novels and other forms of literature works on their mobile phones. Therefore, the sale of paper books has been affected. But the survey indicates that, despite the steady growth of the mobile phone reading market, more than half of the adults still prefer to read paper books. 【手机改变支付方式】 过去几年里,移动支付市场在中国蓬勃发展。随着移动互联网的出现,手机购物逐渐成为一种趋势。18到30岁的年轻人构成了移动支付市场的最大群体。由于现在用手机付款很容易,许多消费者在购物时宁愿用手机付款,而不愿用现金或信用卡。为了鼓励人们多消费,

英语四级考试翻译题传统文化各种模板

一、中国龙 对龙图腾他的崇拜在中国大约已绵延了八千多年。中国龙是古人将鱼、蛇、马、牛等动物与云雾、雷电等自然天象集合而成的一种神物。中国龙的形成与中华民族的多元融合过程同步。在中国人的心目中,龙具有振奋腾飞、开拓变化的寓意和团结凝聚的精神。 译文 Chinese Dragon Dragon totem worship in China has been around for the last 8,000 years. The ancients in China considered the dragon (or loong) a fetish that combines animals including the fish, snake, horse and ox with cloud, thunder, lightning and other natural celestial phenomena. The Chinese dragon was formed in accordance with the multicultural fusion process of the Chinese nation. To the Chinese, the dragon signifies innovation and cohesion. 二、秧歌 多彩的表演服装,他们的表演动作有力迅速。在农历春节、元宵节等节日期间,人们一旦听到锣鼓声,不管外面天气有多冷,他们都会蜂拥到街上看秧歌舞表演。近年来,中国东北某些城市的老年人自发组织了了秧歌队,队员常年通过跳秧歌舞来保持健康,同事他们也乐在其中。 Yangko is one of tradition folk dance of Han in China.It is usually performed in northern provinces.

2019年6月大学英语四级翻译练习题:李白

2019年6月大学英语四级翻译练习题库 英语练习题:李白 李白是唐朝(the Tang Dynasty)的诗人。他和他的朋友杜甫是唐代中期中国诗歌繁盛时期最杰出的两位人物。他一生四处游历,写下了大约1000首诗篇。这些诗堪称是赞美友情、享受大自然和饮酒作乐的模板。他的诗浪漫、豪迈,想象力丰富。作为一个浪漫主义天才,李白把中国的传统诗歌形式推向了一个新的离度,对后世的诗歌产生了深远的影响。 参考译文 Li Bai was a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty. He and his friend Du Fu were the two most prominent figures in the flourishing of Chinese poetry in the mid-Tang Dynasty. He traveled around the country in his lifetime, composing about 1,000 pieces of poems which were models for celebrating the friendship, appreciating the nature and the joys of drinking wine. His poems are romantic with heroic style and rich imagination. As a romantic genius, Li Bai took traditional poetic forms to a new height and exerted a far-reaching influence on the poems of the future generation. 表达难点 1.第2句中的定语“唐代中期中国诗歌繁盛时期”的中心词是“繁盛时期”(in the flourishing),“中国诗歌”是其定语,用介词短语of Chinese poetry来表达,时间范围较大的“唐代中期”(in the mid-Tang Dynasty)置于句末。 2.第3句中的“写下了大约1000首诗篇”用分词短语composing about 1,000 pieces of poems来表达,作状语。后一句以“这些诗”为主语,跟前一句关联较大,故将其处理成修饰前一句poems的定语从句,用 which引导。 3.第5句“他的诗浪漫、豪迈,想象力丰富”是中文的无动词句。翻译时,把“他的诗浪漫”转换为主干(his poems are romantic),将“豪迈,想象力丰富”转换为状语,用介词短语with heroic style and rich imagination来表达。 4.最后一句可直译成并列结构,“推向……高度”用take…to a height来表达,“对……产生深远的影响”则用exerted a far-reaching influence oil…的表达方式。

2 015年6月13日全国大学英语四级翻译真题及答案 大米 在西方人心目中,和中国联系最为密切的基本食物是大米。长期以来,大米在中国人的饮食中占据很重要的地位,以至于有谚语说“巧妇难为无米之炊”。中国南方大多数种植水稻,人们通常以大米为食;而华北大部分地区因为过于寒冷或过于干燥,无法种植水稻,那里的主要作物是小麦。在中国,有些人用面粉做面包,但大多数人用面粉做馒头和面条。 In the mind of Westerners,Chinese people have the closest connection to rice,basic food for the Chinese.For a long time,rice occupies a very important position in the Chinese diet.There is even a saying that "even a clever housewife cannot cook a meal without rice".People in south China plant and live on rice,while people in the most parts of North China cannot plant rice due to excessively dry and cold weather. The main crop there is wheat. In China, some people use flour to bake bread,while most people make steamed bread and noodles with flour. xx 中国是世界上最古老的文明之一。构成现代世界基础的许多元素起源于中国。中国现在拥有世界上发展最快的经济,并正经历着一次新的工业革命。中国还启动了雄心勃勃的太空探索计划,其中包括到20年建成的一个太空站。目前,中国是世界最大的出口国之一,并正在吸引大量外国投资。同时,它也在海外投资数十亿美元。2011年,中国超越日本成为世界第二大经济体。 快递 据报道,今年中国快递服务(courier service)将递送大约120亿件包裹。这将使中国有可能超越美国成为世界上最大的快递市场。大多数包裹里装着网上订购的物品。中国给数百万在线零售商以极具竞争力的价格销售商品的机会。仅在11月11日,中国消费者就从国内最大的购物平台购买了价值90亿美元的商品。中国有不少这样的特殊购物日。因此,快递业在中国扩展就不足为奇了。

You would not have failed if___(按照我的指令去做) 【参考答案】you had followed my instructions 或者you had followed my orders 。【权威解析】本题较为容易,属于识记型题目。考点有三个:第一是按照所给出的汉语提示,由于主句和从句的主语是一致的,因此在做答案的时候应该在从句中补全主语you,很多学生出现遗漏,就按照汉语意思直译了,造成不必要的失分;第二是固定搭配“按照。。。的指令”表达为follow my instructions 或者是follow my orders 注意多样化的表达,两者选其一就可以;第三个考点是if从句的虚拟语气考查;根据语法规定,如果主句中出现would have的形式,从句中应该采用had 过去分词的结构;综上,很容易得出答案you had followed my instructions 。 88. Despite the hardship he encountered, Mark never ___(放弃对知识的追求) 【参考答案】abandoned the pursuit of knowledge。 【权威解析】本题的考点主要有两个:首先根据句子的已知部分判断,需要填写的部分应该采用过去时,这一点大家一定要注意;其次,考查固定搭配,1)“放弃做某事”abandon sth;“知识的追求’的表达是the pursuit of knowledge ”,综上,得出正确答案。在句子的已知部分,encounter the hardship也是非常重要的固定搭配,意思为“遇到困难”。 89. Scientists agree that it will be a long time before____(我们找到治愈癌症的方法) 【参考答案】we find the cure for cancer。 【权威解析】首先根据句子的已知部分,可以判断出填写的部分用一般现在时;其次,要注意汉语提示部分是“治愈”而不是“治疗”,因此要用cure 而不能用treat,这就提醒我们学习单词的时候一定要注意细节,否则用错了,分数就丢掉

2019年12月大学英语四级翻译练习题:灯谜

2019年12月大学英语四级翻译练习题:灯谜2018年12月大学英语四级翻译练习题库 英语四级翻译练习题:灯谜 灯谜(lantern riddles )是指写在彩灯上面的谜语。灯谜一般由三部分组成,即谜面、谜目(hint)和谜底。在灯谜中凡是谜面上有的字,在谜底中不能再出现。灯谜里充满着智慧,所以猜谜底显得很有趣,这也使得猜灯谜成为元宵节的一项不可缺少的活动。灯谜在中国源远流长,能够毫不夸张地说,灯谜体现着中国人民无穷的智慧。 参考翻译: Lantern Riddles Lantern riddles are riddles that are written on thelanterns. Generally, a lantern riddle consists of threeparts, namely the riddle, the hint and the answer.Any character that appears in the riddle cannot bein the answer again. Lantern riddles are full of wisdom, thus working out them can be muchfun, which makes guessing riddles an essential part of the activities in the Lantern Festival.The lantern riddle has a long history in China, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is areflection of infinite wisdom of the Chinese people. 1.由…组成:能够译为consist of,也可译为be made up of或becomposed of。 2.谜面、谜目和谜底:这三个词如果理解不当就会翻译错误。谜面是该条谜语的主题,也就是灯谜本身;谜目则是附加于谜面之后,为猜谜者划定猜谜范围的提示性语言;谜底即是准确答案。所以可译为the riddle,the hint and theanswer。

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。

今年考的三套翻译题均是跟中国的公共交通相关的内容,介绍了公交车、飞机、地铁服务的提升,以及市民生活水平的提高。展现了我国社会的发展和人民幸福水平的提升。 交通方式这一话题是考生日常所熟知的,也比较贴近考生的生活,词汇对于考生来说不是问题,“公交车”、“航空”等都是小学初中就接触到的词汇,但是需要考生去积累一些组合词汇,例如:“私家车private car”、“老年市民senior citizens”等。 对段落内容的理解也不是难事,毕竟交通方式是生活中老生常谈的话题,主要的难点在于一些固定的句式和搭配,例如“随着经济的发展和人民生活水平的提高”是考生耳熟能详的“万金油”句式。 诸如此类句式还有:“曾是……used to be…”、“越来越……more and more…”这些表达应该是考生在平时的学习中慢慢积累的。 此外,时态语态也是考生容易出错的点,由于汉语和英语表达习惯的不同,汉语中不常用被动,或者即使表达被动的意思也不会体现在句式上,例如:“公交车设施不断更新”,从字面并没有任何提示是被动,但语义的理解却带有被动的含义,翻译成英语时一定要体现出“be+过去分词”的结构。 又如“许多城市……一直努力……”,需要判断,这个动作发生在过去的某个时间节点,一直持续,并还可能持续下去,最后确定此处应选用现在完成进行时,在平时的学习中,应理解每种时态对应的情况,才能更加贴切地表达出原文所要传达的意思 句子的语序调整仍值得考生注意。时间状语、地点状语、原因状语、目的状语和方式状语仍然是重要的考点,一般情况下都要后置。 其次是句型的变化。注意运用被动语态(从中英文语用习惯以及动词发出者的逻辑主语去改句子)、插入语(例如,“包括许多农民和外出务工人员”)、there be 句型(非人主语+有/存在。例如,中国有越来越多的城市开始建设地铁)和It为形式主语的句子(例如,乘飞机出行对大多数中国人来说是难以想象的)进行改句,防止句式单一。 过去,乘飞机出行对大多数中国人来说是难以想象的。 In the past, travelling by airplane was unimaginable for most Chinese.
