《英汉互译（一）》第一讲翻译简论与主要翻译方法 （A Brief Discussion of Translation and Major Translation Approaches） 1. Introduction Translation studies started along with translation practice. Translation theories developed flourishingly in the 20th century, especially in the second half of the last century. In fact, translation, which is a very complex phenomenon, is related to different disciplines, such as linguistics, psychology, sociology, cultural anthropology, communication theory, literary criticism, aesthetics, and semiotics. As translation study is a cross-discipline and cross-culture subject involving many aspects of human knowledge, the lack of a fully acceptable theory of translation should not come as a surprise. Meanwhile, quite a number of translation approaches and strategies have become universally acceptable and widely applicable. They are, of course, the fruits of many translation theorists and translation practitioners at home and abroad. 2.The Origin of Translation Language makes it possible for people to communicate with one another freely so as to complete important tasks in human life. Translation makes it possible for people from different languages to communicate with one another so as to complete important tasks in their life. Theodore Savory points out, “Translation is almost as old as original authorship and has a history as honorable and as complex as that of any other branch of literature”(申雨平, 2002:4). In Zhou Dynasty there were different forms of address for translators in different places. “Translators are called Ji in the east, Xiang in the south, Didi in the west, and

何林楠女三年级小学A组英语讲故事 There are three little pigs。They live in a small house with their mother。"This house is too small。The three of you must leave home。You must build your own homes，" says the mother pig one day。 有三只小猪。他们跟猪妈妈同住在一间小屋子里。有一天猪妈妈说：“这房子太小了。你们三个必须搬出去住。你们必须自己盖房子住。” The first little pig gets some hay。"I will build a house of hay，" he says。"It will not be hard。My house will be easy to make。Then，I will go play。" 第一只小猪拿了些干草来。“我要盖一间草屋，”他说。“这工作不难。我的屋子很容易盖。盖好后，我就可以去玩耍了。” "I will use sticks to make a house，" says the second little pig。"It will be easy。Then，I will go play with my brother。" The second little pig quickly builds his home。He goes outside to play。 “我要用树枝盖一间屋子，”第二只小猪说。“这工作很容易。盖好后，我就可以跟哥哥去玩耍。”第二只小猪很快就把他的屋子盖好，便到外头去玩耍了。 " I will build my houseof bricks。It will take a long time，" says the third little pig。He builds his house。It is hard work，but the house is strong。 “我的屋子要用砖头来盖。这要花上很长的时间，”第三只小猪说。他便盖起屋子，这工作不轻松，不过屋子却挺牢固的. One day，the three little pigs see some footprints。They are the big bad wolf's footprints。The little pigs run to their homes。They are afraid of the big bad wolf。He eats little pigs. 有一天，三只小猪看到几个脚印，这是大野狼的脚印。三只小猪赶紧跑回各自的家里。他们很怕大野狼，因为他会吃小猪。 The big bad wolf goes to the first little pig's house。The house is made of hay。"Little pig，little pig，let me come in！" says the wolf。 大野狼走到第一只小猪的家门口。这间屋子是干草盖的。”小猪，小猪，让我进来！”大野狼说。” "No way！I will not let you in，" says the little pig。 “不行！我不会让你进来，”小猪说道。 "If you don't let me in，I will blow your house down！" says the wolf。The wolf blows hard。The house falls down。The first little pig runs away。He runs to the second little pig's house。 “你若不让我进来，我就要把你的屋子吹倒！”大野狼说。于是他猛力一吹屋子就倒了，第一只小猪便连忙逃走。他跑到第二只小猪的家里。 The second little pig's house is made of sticks。The first little pig and the second little pig are in the house。They are both very afraid。 第二只小猪的屋子是树枝盖的。第一只小猪和第二只小猪都待在屋内，他们都很害怕。 "Little pigs，little pigs，let me come in！" says the wolf。 “小猪，小猪，让我进来！”大野狼说。 "No way！We will not let you in，" say the two little pigs。 “不行！我们不会让你进来！”两只小猪说道。 "If you don't let me in，I will blow your house down！" says the wolf。The wolf blows down the second little pig's house。The stick house is easy to blow down。The two little pigs run to the third little pig's house。 “你们如果不让我进来，我就要把你们的屋子吹倒！”大野狼说。于是他就把第二只小
英汉互译原文
Wall Street Take a Dive Ronald Reagan’s 1985 budget took a thunderous shelling last week. Day after day, jittery Wall Street investors fired sell orders, hitting stock prices with their heaviest declines since 1982. Testifying in Washington, Federal Reserve Chairman Paul V olcker fired the single most damaging salvo by warning that the deficits envisaged in the budget pose a “clear and present danger”, threatening to keep interest rates high and tip the economy into a new recession. The size of the deficits is staggering. Rudolph Penner, director of the Congressional Budget Office, predicted that if policy is not changed, the flow of red ink will swell from $190 billion this year to $326 billion by 1989. In testimony on Capitol Hill, the President’s men acknowledged that the economy was in danger. Chief Economic Adviser Martin Feldstein, known as the Administration’s “Dr.Gloom,”agreed with Penner’s warning that the deficit could reach the $300 billion range by the evd of the decade. If that happened, said Feldstein, federal borrowing would be swallowing 75% of American savings and putting powerful upward pressure on interest rates. Even Treasury Secretary Donald Regan, usually an optimist and a critic of Feldstein’s dour outlook, admitted that “without proper fiscal and monetary policies, there is a possibility of our slipping back into a recession in the U.S.”Unless the Federal Reserve speeds up growth of the U.S money supply , warned Treasury Under Secretary Beryl Sprinkel, a recession could start this year. 译文：华尔街股价下跌 罗纳德里根1985财政年度的财政预算，上周遭到了猛烈的抨击。华尔街的投资者深感不安，每天都要下令抛售股票，压低股票价格，导致1982年以来最大幅度的下跌。联邦储备局主席保罗沃尔克在华盛顿作证时，放了最厉害的一炮。他告诫说：从财政预算中可以预见的赤字，带来“清清楚楚的、实实在在的危险”，使得利率居高不下，使得经济失去平衡。 赤字数额高得惊人。国会预算审议室主任鲁道夫彭纳语言：如果政策不改变，赤字的泛滥将从今年的一千九百亿美元，增至1989年的三千二百六十亿美元。 总统的幕僚在国会作证时承认，经济处于危险状态。总统的首席经济顾问马丁费尔斯坦，人称政府中的“忧郁博士”，他赞同彭纳提出的告诫：至80年代末，赤字将达到三千亿美元这一幅度。费尔斯坦说，如果出现这一情况，联邦政府的举债将耗去美国人积蓄的75%，产生强大的压力是利率上涨。财政部长唐纳德里甘本来是个乐天派，对费尔斯坦的忧郁观点常持批评态度，可是就连他也承认：“没有正确的财政金融政策，美国可能再度陷入经济衰退。”财政部次长贝利尔斯普林克警告说：如果联邦储备局不加速美国的货币供应量，今年就会出现经济衰退。

英汉互译的学习心得
英汉互译学习的心得体会 管理学院 *** 经过了三个星期的英汉互译学习，有些体会。现就英汉翻译，谈点感想。 英汉翻译中最大的问题，莫过于不加修改的直译，在英文翻译中有几点汉语习惯是一定要注意的。 1.长句尽量改短，语序调整为汉语习惯 英文中很容易就出现从句套从句的长句，这些句子读起来本身就很难理解了，如果翻译的时候还是不加改动，那读者读起来就更难理解。我在这儿举个例子吧，就拿我自己翻译的《钉子与镇魂歌》的开头部分：The episode of the nail and the requiem was one of the most characteristic of all those in which, over a relatively brief period, I was privileged to watch Trevis Tarrant at work. 刚开始读到这句话的时候，我自己也愣了好半天，因为这句话完全不是汉语的习惯，如果不假思索地直接翻译，那就是：钉子与镇魂歌的事件是最有代表性的案件之一，在短暂的时间里，这段时间是我有幸观察塔南特工作的那段时间。当然要合并成一句话，也可以这么翻译：钉子与镇魂歌的事件是我有幸观察塔南特工作的那段时间里发生的最有代表性的案件之一。天啊，阅读起来太累了，但是这句话并没有语法问题！我想在翻译的时候要牢记一点：最后形成的是汉语，阅读我们译文的是中文读者。所以在这里必须要调整语序，而且长句要改短，最后我给的译文就是：在我有幸目睹塔南特破案的短暂时光里，钉子与镇魂歌的事件应该是最有代表性的案件之一。 2.定语改表语 英语中常常出现中心语前面出现两三个形容词的情况，这儿我举《绿色危机》第一章的例子：A huge, square envelope, covered with a huge, square handwriting. 直译就是很大的方形的信封上面写着大气的方正的字

英汉互译(含答案)
阅读下短文，将划线句子翻译成中文或英语。 一、 Making friends is a skill. 1. Before you make friends, you have to decide whom you want to be your friends. Most people like to have friends who like to do the same kind of things as they do. 2. The quickest way to make friends is to smile. When you smile, people think you are friendly to them and easy to talk to. It may not be easy to smile at first, but remember most people will stay away from an angry-looking face. To talk with others is a good way to make friends. One easy way to start a talk with someone is to say something nice about him. 3.Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person? Ask your new friends some questions about themselves. Who are their favorite singers? Where do they live? 4.他们放学后做些什么？There are all good questions to start a talk. Make sure you have something to add to the talk，too. 5. When someone asks you a question, y ou’d better have an answer for them. Remember that nothing will stop a talk more quickly than a shrug(耸肩) for an answer. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 二、 Dear Knowledgeable, My best friend, Mei，has a problem.

英汉互译课程论文原文(5)Translation Theory
嘉兴学院课程论文 2012—2013学年第1学期 课程名称：英汉互译 班级：姓名：学号： 要求：阅读下文，并组织4个同学将其译为汉语（请注明每位同学翻译的部分） A Short History of Western Translation Theory Introduction Antoine Berman has argued that because "reflection on translation has become an internal necessity of translation itself…(t)he construction of a history of translation is the first task of a modern theory of translation" (Berman 1992: 1). This paper gives a very brief overview of the history of western theories of translation, from the perspective of the end of the twentieth century. The framework for my discussion will be a discourse analysis approach to the history of ideas developed by the French historian Michel Foucault. Adapting Steiner (1998: 248-9), I will divide the history of discourse on translation into four periods: (1) a "traditional" period, from the beginning of the Christian era to the end of the eighteenth century, which is a period of "immediate empirical focus", (2) a period of "theory and hermeneutic inquiry", growing out of German Romanticism around the beginning of the nineteenth century, (3) a "modern" period, reaching well into the twentieth century, in which the influence of General Linguistics is increasingly dominant, and (4) the contemporary period, subsequent to the publication of Steiner"s book, which has taken to itself the name of "Translation Studies". An Approach to the History of Ideas My sources to the end of the nineteenth century will be drawn from Douglas Robinson"s Western Translation Theory(Robinson1997a). In studying the history of ideas about translation theory, we are seeking to make sense of a series of existing written texts - what they have to say about the act of translation and translated texts, and how they say what they have to say. Clearly there is a vast amount of discourse about the practice and significance of the act of translation. The 334 pages of Robinson"s book include 124 texts by 90 authors. The historical "sequel", which is the basis of my later remarks, Venuti"s Translation Studies Reader (2000), includes 30 essays by 30 authors and covers 524 pages. This mass of documents is far from being a random collection of statements. As Foucault has noted: "we know perfectly well that we are not free to say just anything, that we cannot simply speak of anything, when we like or where we like; not just anyone, finally, may speak of just anything" (Foucault 1972: 216). Specific fields of discourse are organised in regular ways and grow out of definable social contexts. In all fields of discourse, including those related to translation, "discursive practices are characterised by the delimitation of a field of objects, the definition of a legitimate perspective

大学英语翻译全教程第一讲(完美版)
翻译理论与实践 （以《英语翻译教程》南开大学出版社为基础） 第一讲翻译概述 一、翻译的概念 1．广义的翻译指语言与语言、语言与非语言等代码转换和基本信息的传达。它包括不同语言间的翻译（如英汉互译）语言变体间的翻译（如古今语言、不同方言的互译）、语言与其他交际符号的转换（如把交通规则画成交通标志）。他对翻译的内容只强调“基本信息”，不强调“完全的忠实”。也有翻译家提出“理解也是翻译”的理论，这就把语言与思维也包括在广义的翻译里了。 2．狭义的翻译指语言活动，是把一种语言所表达的内容中式地用另一种远表达出来。这个定义强调“是一种语言活动”，表明它是人类多种交际方式中语言交际的沟通；强调“一种语言到另一种语言”，排除了同一语言间各变体的互译；强调“忠实地”，避免了翻译与释义或改写的混淆。 奈达（Eugene Nida）“Translation consists in reproducing in the receptor language the closest natural equivalent of the source-language message, first in terms of meaning and second in terms of style.”(Nida & Taber: The Theory and Practice of Translation) 我们的翻译课讲的就是狭义的翻译，并专指“书面表达内容”，以区别于有独特之处的口译（interpretation）。 二、翻译的分类 1．从所涉及的代码性质看，可分为语内翻译（intralingual translation）、语际翻译（interlingual translation）和语符翻译（intersemiotic translation）。语内翻译是同一种语言见不同语言变体的翻译，如把古汉语译成现代汉语，把黑话译成一般语言（雷子，一方）；语际翻译是不同语言间的翻译，是狭义翻译研究的对象；语符翻译是用非文字符号解释文字符号，如图画、手势、音乐符号等。 2．从方向上看，我国的翻译可分为外译汉、汉译外。 3．从手段上看，翻译可分为口译、笔译和机器翻译。 4．从题材，即所译资料的性质上看，可分为文学翻译（literary translation）,如小说、诗歌、戏剧等，和实用翻译（pragmatic translation）,科技资料、法律文件、新闻、公文等。当然两者都可以进一步再分。如小说翻译、新闻翻译等。 5从翻译的模式上看，可分为全译、编译、缩译（节译）、摘译、改译。 a)编译是翻译与编订的结合，是指把所需材料选编、翻译过来，一般不加如译者的观点，所据材料 可以是一种也可以是多种，常用于实用性资料的翻译中，如说明书，介绍。 b)缩译也叫节译，是翻译与缩写的结合，近似于编译，但一般要求原材料是一种。（如金教授《尤利 西斯》的节译与选译之争） c)摘译是翻译与摘录的结合，是比缩译更简约的一种获取资料的方法。 d) 改译，是翻译和创作的结合，如文学作品可以增删一些情节（迦因小传），体裁也可有所改动，如 原文是戏剧可改译成小说（如朱生豪把莎士比亚的诗体译成散文体）。 补充资料：口译 口译依进行的方式，可分为同声传译以及交替传译两大类。 ●同声传译 所谓同声传译（Simultaneous Interpreting），是指译员以几乎与讲者同时的方式，做口语翻译，也就是在讲者仍在说话时，同声传译员便“同时”进行翻译。由于同声传译员必须一边接收来自讲者的讯息，一边将讯息尽快传递给听者，因此“一心多用”这样的分神能力（Multi-tasking），是译员的训练重点。 同声传译经常应用于一般的正式国际会议中，通常口译员会坐在位于后方的“口译室”（Booth）中，透过耳机以及视线或视讯接收讲者的讯息，然后对著麦克风进行翻译，而坐于会场中的听众，
