(词) 例2：我们确信，年轻一代将不会辜负我们的信任。 译文：We are confident that the younger generation will prove worthy of our trust. (短语) 例3：他七十岁了，可是并不显老。 译文：He was 70, but he carried his years lightly. (句子) II.汉语从正面表达，译文从反面表达 例4：他这个人优柔寡断，而且总是反复无常。 译文：He was an indecisive sort of person and always capricious.

(否定转移) 二、 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重要的方法。所谓分句法就是把原文的一个简单句译为两个或两个以上的句子。所谓合句法就是把原文两个或两个以上的简单句或一个复合句译成一个单句。 I.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，就会使译文冗长、累赘、意思表达不清楚，也不符合英文习惯。 如果采用分译，则会使译文简洁、易懂、层次分明。如以下五个例子： 例1. 少年是一去不复返的，等到精力衰竭时，要做学问也来不及了。(按内 容层次分译) 译文： Youth will soon be gone， never to return. And it will be too late for you to go into scholarship when in your declining years. 例2. 她隔窗望去，突然发现有只小船停泊在河边，船里有位船夫睡得正香。(从主语变换处分译)

大学英语四级真题-翻译

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.

英语四级翻译：吸睛的翻译句式

英语四级翻译：吸睛的翻译句式 1.修饰后置 栗子：做秘书是一份非常复杂的需要组织、协调和沟通能力的工作。 Being a secretary is a very complex job which needs the ability to organize, coordinate and communicate. 分析：本句中“非常复杂的需要组织、协调和沟通能力”是修饰工作的，所以修饰部分放在后面用which引导定语从句。同学们在备考时也要注意，不要逐字翻译进行单词的罗列，一定注意句式分开层次。 2.插入语 插入语一般对一句话作一些附加的说明。它是中学英语(课程)语法的重点，也是高考(课程)的考点。通常与句中其它部分没有语法上的联系，将它删掉之后，句子结构仍然完整。插入语在句中有时是对一句话的一些附加解释、说明或总结;有时表达说话者的态度和看法;有时起强调的作用;有时是为了引起对方的注意;还可以起转移话题或说明事由的作用;也可以承上启下，使句子衔接得更紧密一些。

栗子：中国结(the Chinese knot)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。 The Chinese knot,originally invented by craftsman, has become an elegant and colorful art and craft after hundred years of improvement. 分析：本句中“最初是由手工艺人发明的”是对中国结的补充说明，将它删掉之后主句依然完整，故在译文中将其作为插入语。 3.非限定性从句 非限定性定语从句起补充说明作用，缺少也不会影响全句的理解，在非限定性定语从句的前面往往有逗号隔开，如若将非限定性定语从句放在句子中间，其前后都需要用逗号隔开。 栗子：中国剪纸有一千五百多年的历史，在明朝和清朝时期(the Ming and Qing Dynasties)特别流行。 Chinese paper cutting has a history of more than 1,500 years, which was particularly widespread during the Ming and Qing Dynastie. 4.无主句的翻译

四级句子翻译解析

2014.12 大学英语四级考试翻译解析 (二)句的翻译 汉语造句以名词为重心，以词组、散句和分句为手段，习惯按照时间、逻辑顺序进行横排式表述，其内部逻辑关系“含而不露”，甚至断句不严，外形松散，因此汉语常被称为时间型的动态结构，主要体现为形式自由、富于弹性。而英语则以“主——谓”的主干结构为中心来统领各语言成分，句界分明，外形严谨。因此在汉译英时，译文在逻辑和形式上都应当体现出英语的特点。如果是单句，首先应当确立句子的主干及句型，如果是复杂的句子或长句，则需要确立中心，根据上下文进行句子组合．可以译为并列句、主从复合句(名词性从句、定语从句、状语从句等)、并列复合句或使用独立结构等。这是汉译英的第一步，也是正确译文的基础。 1、确立主干 在汉译英时，不管汉语句子如何复杂．首先要考虑英语的基本组句框架。这些最基本的框架可以变换，可以组合，但不能突破。组织英语句子时，始终不能脱离“主——谓”主干这一总的框架，然后再进行相应的时态变化、语态变化、语气变化、句式转换(肯定式、否定式、疑问式、强调句式及倒装句式等)，增加定语、状语修饰成分、插入语等。 2、语序调整 (1)定语的位置 汉语的定语常放在中心语前；而英语的定语位置分为两种：前置和后置。单词充当定语时通常放在被修饰的中心语之前；而短语和从句作定语则多放在所修饰的中心语之后。 (2)状语的位置 汉语常把状语放在被修饰的成分前面，但英语中状语的位置则分为几种情况：单词作状语修饰形容词或其他状语时，常前置；表示程度的状语修饰其他状语时，可前置或后置；单词作状语修饰动词时，多放在动词之后；短语或从句作状语时，可放在被修饰部分之前或之后。 (3)汉英叙事重心不同 汉语先叙事，然后表态或评论，以此来突出话题，这种句子被称为主题旬。而英语则先表态或进行评论，而后再叙事，以突出主语。 (4)强弱词语的顺序不同 表示感情色彩的轻重、强弱时，汉语将重的内容、强的词语放在前面；英语将语义轻的内容、弱的词语放在前面，基本原则是前轻后重，前简后繁。 除了上面的技巧以外，还要注意段落的衔接。段落的衔接是指段落中各部分在语法和词汇方面有关联，即段落的各个部分的排列和衔接要符合逻辑。汉语和英语在衔接手法上迥异。
