翻译题目：

目前，中国是全球最大的出口国之一，吸引了创纪录水平的外国投资额。相应地，中国的海外投资也高达数十亿美元。中国作为世贸组织的一员，因进入外国市场而获益。但由于巨大的贸易顺差(trade surplus)和盗版(piracy)商品的猖獗，中国和贸易伙伴的关系一直处于紧张状态。前者招致了要求中国提高人民币汇率（exchange rate)的呼声，这将使中国商品对外国买家来说更加昂贵，进而可能抑制出口。目前，中国已采取了逐步放宽人民币交易限制的措施。

翻译讲解

1.海外投资:可翻译为overseas investment。

2.进入外国市场:可翻译为access to the foreignmarkets。

3.紧张状态:可翻译为tensive。

翻译训练每日一练：第四期

基尼指数（Gini coefficient)是一个反映收入分配程度的指标(index)。去年中国基尼指数为0.474，表明居民贫富差距(wealth gap)比较大。虽然贫富差距是任何一个发展中国家都会面临的问题，它还是引起了人们对中国发展和社会稳定的担忧。目前，中国政府把缩小贫富差距作为工作的重中之重。为此，政府采取了一系列的措施，包括提高低收入人群的收入平和完善社会保障制度等。

翻译讲解

1.第1句中的定语“一个反映收人分配程度的”较长，故将其处理成后置定语，用现在分词短语reflecting income distribution来表达程度，为汉语的范畴词，英译时可省略不译。

2.第2句中的“表明居民贫富差距比较大”是对前面分句的说明，可处理为which引导的非限制性定语从句，表达为which showed a great wealth gap between residents0 如果逐语对译为which showed that wealth gap between residents is quite big,则表达繁冗,且句子头重脚轻。

3.翻译第3句“虽然贫富差距是……，它还是引起了……”时，可以套用句型although...still...。“虽然贫富差距是......的问题”可逐字对译为although the problem of... is the one that every developing country has to face。

4.最后一句中的“为此”的意思是“为了解玲这个问题”，因此译为in order to cure the problem 更达意，而不能简单译为therefore。“包括提高低收入人群的收人水平和完善社会保障制度等”补充说明“措施”用现在分词短语including raising...and improving...来表达。

参考翻译

The Gini coefficient is an index reflecting income distribution. The Gini coefficient in China was at 0.474 last year, which showed a great wealth gap between residents. Although the problem of wealth gap is the one that ever y developing country has to face, it still raises people’s concerns about China's development and social stability. Now, the Chinese government places a priorityon reducing wealth gap. In order to cure the problem, the Chinese governmenthas adopted a series of measures, including raising the income level oflow-income people and improving the social security systems.

中国经济正在以两位数的速度增长，但就像世界银行(the World Bank)指出的那样，随着经济的持续增长，避免所谓的中等收人差距（middle income gap)并不容易。从一个“中等收入”国家过渡到“高收入”国家的难度要远远高于从一个“低收入”国家过渡到“中等收入”国家的难度。中国依然拥有仅次于印度的全球第二大贫困人口量。国家最贫困人口的收入应该随着经济的增长有所上升。

翻译讲解

1.两位数的速度:可译为double-digit rate。

2.国家最贫困人口的收入应该随着经济的增长有所上升:“随着……”即“与…一致”，可译为in line with。

3. avoid [?'v?id] vt.避免，逃避

4.population [.p?pju'lei??n] n. 人口，(全体)居民，人数

参考翻译

China's economy is growing at a double-digit rate, but as the World Bank has pointed out, it won't be easy to avoid what is known as the middle income gap as its economy continues to grow. Moving from being a “middle income” to a “high income” country is a lot harder than moving from being a “low income” to a “middle income”country. China still has the second largest number of poor population in the world after India.The incomes of the country's poorest should be rising in line with economic growth.

据统计，全国共有超过6100万留守儿童(left-behind children)。他们的父母远离家乡到城镇地区谋生,留下他们由祖父母或其他亲戚照顾。留守儿童问题是一个值得关注的社会问题。留守儿童无法像同龄孩子那样得到父母的关爱，从而引起各种心理问题。此外，留守儿童更容易受到意外伤害。为此国务院（State Council）成立了一个专门工作组来保护留守儿童的合法权益。

翻译讲解

1.第2句有两个分句，可将前一分句处理为句子的主干，后半句“留下他们由......照顾”可处理为状语，用现在分词短语leaving them taken care of by...来表达。前一分句“远离家乡到城镇地区谋生”有两个动作“远离”和“谋生”,可将“谋生”作为句子的谓语，“远离家庭”处理为修饰“城镇地区”的定语，整句译为earn a living in urban areas far away from home。

2.第3句“留守儿童问题是—个值得关注的社会问题”中，有两个“问题”，按照英语表达习惯要避免重复，故分别译为problem和issue。定语“值得关注的”较长，进行后置处理，可用介词短语of concern或worth concerning 来表达。

3.第4句中的“得到父母的关爱”可直译为receive/get parents' care但较生硬，不如译文中的表达enjoy parents' care来得精彩，表达出“享受”的感觉。“像同龄孩子那样”不能直译为as their peers,而应补充出“得到父母的关爱”的动作才能达意，为避免重复，用动词do 来代替。“从而引起......”作结果状语,用分词短语resulting in...来表达。

4.最后一句中的“来保护留守儿童的合法权益”作目的状语，用不定式短语to protect the legal rights and interests of left-behind children来表达。定语“留守儿童的”较长，故将其后置。

参考翻译

According to statistics, there are over 61 million left-behind children in China .Their parents earn a living in urban areas far away from home, leaving them taken care of by grandparents or other relatives. The problem of the left-behind children is a social issue worth concerning. The left-behind children can't enjoy their parents' care as their peers do, resulting in a variety of psychological problems. In addition, they are more vulnerable to accidental injuries. To this end, the State Council has set up a special work team to protect the legal rights and interests of the left-behind children

中国象棋(Chinese chess)是一种古老的智力游戏，是中国宝贵的文化遗产(heritage )。它的起源与军事策略密切相关。在古代，下象棋也是一个文人必须掌握的技能之一。如今，象棋被当作是开发智力和培养专注力的有效途径，很多孩子从四五岁就开始学习下象棋。与此同时，下棋也是许多老年人最喜欢的消遣方式(pastime)。据估计，在中国有超过五亿人懂得下象棋。

翻译讲解

1.第1句“中国象棋是一种......，是中国......”可用并列结构译出Chinese chess is an... and 但不如将“是一种古老的箦力游戏”处理为“中国象祺”的同位语，把“是中国宝费的文化遗产”处理为主句，以突出重点。整句译为Chinese chess, an ancient intellectual game, is a...,

2.第3句中“技能”的定语“—个文人必须掌握的”可用定语从句that a scholar should master 来表达，置于中心词skill后。也可采用较为意译的方法把单词essential必不可少的”置于

skill前来表达，“一个文人必须掌握的技能之一”完整译作one of the essential skills for a scholar，时间状语“在古代”译为in ancient times，可置句首或句末。

3.第4句中的“象棋被当作是开发智力和培养专注力的有效途径”表原因，故将其译作原因状语从句，由as引导。“开发智力和培养专注力”中的“开发”和“培养”都可用develop 来表达，故省译一个，译为develop intelligence and the ability to focus。

4.最后一句句首的“据估计”可套用句型it is estimated that...。“懂得下象棋”中“懂得”(know)为及物动词, 后接名词或从句。按照英文表达习惯，“懂得下象棋”译为know how to play Chinese chess,而不能表达为know playing Chinese chess。

参考翻译

Chinese chess, an ancient intellectual game, is a valuable cultural heritage of China. Its origin was closely related to military strategies. Playing chess was also one of the essential skills for a scholar in ancient times. As playing chess is considered as an effective way to develop intelligence and the ability to focus, now many children begin to learn to play Chinese chess at the age of four or five. At the same time, the chess is also a favorite pastime for many aged people. It is estimated that over half a billion people in China know how to play Chinese chess.

西安是中国古代13个王朝(dynasty)的首都。毫无疑问，它是中国历史与文化的完美代表。西安居于“中国古都”之首，在中国历史上建都时间最长、影响力最大。它是丝绸之路(the Silk Road)的起点，是中华文明的发祥地。西安到处都是令人惊叹的历史奇观，因此吸引着众多的国内外游客。那里有着中国最古老、最壮观的博物馆和寺庙，其中最著名的是拥有2000年历史的兵马俑博物馆(the Terracotta Warriors Museum)。

翻译讲解

1.第2句中的状语“毫无疑问”修饰整句话时，可译为it is no doubt that+从句，也可将no doubt 置于系动词is和名词之间，译作it is no doubt the perfect representative...。这样的表述更简洁。

2.第3句“西安居于‘中国古都’之首,在中国历史上建都时间最长，影响力最大”中，可以

将“建都时间最长，影响力最大”看作是“居于‘中国古都’之首”的伴随状语，用介词短语with the longest history... and the greatest influence 来表达。

3.第5句中的“到处都是令人惊叹的历史奇观”是后一分句“吸引……游客”的原因所在，这里可以用as或for 引导原因状语从句来表达，也可用一个简单的分词短语filled with...来表状态，语义表达简洁明了。

4.最后一句中的“那里有着”可以直译为there be句型，但过于平淡，宜译作It boasts...，boast取“自豪地拥有”之义，表达较为生动。“其中……”这个分句可用among which引导非限制性定语从句来表达，使得句子结构紧凑，表达流畅。

家庭是社会的基本单位，其结构随着社会的发展而变化。在中国几千年的封建社会(feudal society)里，绝大部分家庭是几世同堂，家里的大事由男人做主。近百年来，中国的家庭观念发生了很大的变化，中国家庭的结构也随之改变了许多。人口众多的大家庭开始分成较小的家庭和主干家庭(stem family)，也出现了众多的由一对夫妇和未婚子女组成的核心家庭(nuclear family)。

翻译讲解

1.第1句由两个分句组成，前—个分句的主语是“家庭”(family)，后一个分句的主语是“结构”（structure）如果把原句直译成并列的结构，其译文会显得松散，将其“分译”成两个句子效果会更好。

2.在第2句中，“几千年的”可译为一个定语从句，增泽一个动词last(持续)可使句子意思更为明确、生动。“家里的大事由男人做主”可处理成状语，用独立主格结构with the male members making all the important decisions来表达。翻译“几世同堂”、“由男人做主”时，不要受原文形式的束缚，关键是将其意思译出来。“几世同堂”的意思是“包含有几代人”，“包含”可译为consist of或be made up of；“大事由男人做主”主要表示“做所有重大的决定”,可译为making all the important decisions。

3.在第3句中，“中国的家庭观念发生了很大的变化”可套用句型great changes have happened/taken place in...。“……也随之改变”可用accordingly来表达。

4.最后一句中的后一分句为无主语句，宜把非主语成分“众多的……核心家庭”转换为主语，套用句型there appear...。定语“由一对夫妇和未婚子女组成的”较长，可将其处理成后置定语，用分词短语composed of a couple...来表达。

参考翻译

Family is the basic unit of the society. Its structure changes along with the development of the society. In China's feudal society which lasted several thousand years, most families consisted of several generations, with the male members making all the important decisions. During the last hundred years, great changes have taken place in Chinese family concept, and accordingly in the Chinese family structure. Large families began to divide into smaller families and stem families. There also appear many nuclear families composed of a couple and their unmarried children.

尊敬老人是中华民族的传统道德之一。重阳节的设立就是要倡导人们遵守孝道(filial piety)、尊敬老人。中国的法律规定赡养父母是成年子女的责任。不和父母一起住的成年子女要给老人生活费(living allowances}并帮助他们干家务活。但是，由于社会的发展和生活的压力，现在越来越多的年轻人很少回家探望父母。2013年7月，政府把“常回家看看”写进法律。

翻译讲解

1.第2句中的“重阳节的设立就是……”如果逐字对译为the establishment of the Double Ninth Festival to...，则表达啰嗦繁冗，故省译“设立”一词，直接表达为Double Ninth Festival to...。

2.第3句中的“赡养父母是成年子女的责任”，如果直接译为to support their parents is grown-up children's responsibility，则显得生硬，不如套用句型it is...responsibility (是……的责任)来表达。

3.第4句中的定语“不和父母一起住的”较长，可将其处理成后置定语，译为从句who do not live with their parents 或更为简洁的分词短语living apart from their parents，短语live apart from(分开住）与do not live with(不住一起)同义。

4.最后一句的主讲是“政府”，但仔细分析发现，这句并不强调主语，宜用被动语态来翻译，可把“常回家看看(regularly visit aging parents)”译作主语“常回家看看”如果直译为often go home则意思表达得不够贴切，宜把“回家的目的”增译出来。施动者“政府”(by the government)不言自明，可省略不译。

参考翻译

Respecting the elderly is one of the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation. The Double Ninth Festival is to advocate filial piety and respect for the elders. China’s law defines that it is grow-up children's responsibility to support their parents. Grown-up children living apart from their parents should give parents the living allowances and help them with the house work. However, due to the development of society and the pressure from life, now more and more young people fail to go home often to visit their parents. In July, 2013, "regularly visit aging parents" was put into the law.

年画(New Year Picture)是中国特有的一种绘画体裁。贴年画的习俗源于在房子的大门上贴门神(Door Gods)的传统。传统年画以精美的木刻(block print)和鲜艳的色彩闻名。主题主要是花鸟、可爱的婴儿、神话传说与历史故事等，表达人们祈望丰收的愿望和对幸福生活的憧憬。

随着印刷技术的提高，制作年画的材料也不断增多。这种传统的艺术形式如今仍充满生机，深受人们喜爱。

翻译讲解

1.第2句中的定语“在房子的大门上贴门神的”可用of引导的介词短语of pasting Door Gods on the external doors of houses来表达。其中“大门”指的是“房子最外面的门故译为the external doors of houses.

2.第4句的原主语是“主题”，为了使表达富有逻辑性和连贯性，在其前加上物主代词their，指代前面的“传统年画”。“表达人们……”可处理为表伴随动作的状语，用分词短语conveying people's...来表达“愿望”和“憧憬”同义，故只需译出一个wish即可翻译“祈望丰收的”和“对幸福生活的”时，用介词for引出并列结构,表达为for a good harvest and a happy life。

3.倒数第2句中的“制作年画的材料也不断增多”可用存现句型there be来表达，译为there are more and more new materials for New Year Pictures。

4.最后一句“……仍充满生机，深受人们喜爱”可用并列结构译出... is still full of vigor today and (is) deeply loved by people。虽然前半句用主动形式，后半句用被动形式，但可共接一个系动词be。“充满生机”还可表达为be vigorous。

迄今为止中国园林(Chinese Garden)已有3000多年的悠久历史。中国园林不仅是一种建筑形式，更是中国文化的标志。它集传统建筑、园艺、绘画和雕刻(carving)为一体，具有高超的艺术水平和独特风格。中国园林体现了中华民族的创造力和审美观。中国园林种类繁多，其中以江南的苏州园林最为著名。苏州园林以其幽静、优雅与和谐闻名于世。

翻译讲解

1.第1句中的“迄今为止”为时间状语，翻译时常将其放在句首，表达为up till now，与之搭配的时态是现在完成时态。

2.第2句为系表结构，用句型not only... but also连接两个并列表语。此句主语重复了前一句的“中国园林”，故此句用it替代Chinese Garden，以避免重复。

3.第3句中的“具有高超的艺术水平和独特风格"说明了中国园林的特点，可不用单独译成一句，而处理成with引导的伴随状语，置于句首。

4.第4句“中国园林体现了中华民族的创造力和审美观”中的“体现”使用短语give expression to 来表达，比简单用单词show等更为生动。

5.倒数第2句“中国园林种类……”可把前半句处理为句子的主句，用there be句型来表达；后半句采用“介词among +关系代词which”引导的非限制性定语从句的形式，表达为among which...。
