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。

1. 中秋习俗 在中国月饼是一种特殊的食品,广受海内外华人的欢迎。中秋吃月饼就好比圣诞节吃馅饼(mince pies)。为了庆祝中秋节,中国人通常做两件事:一是观赏满月。二是品尝美味的月 饼。中秋节是每年农历八月十五日。据说,这一天的月亮是一年中最圆的。而月亮正是庆贺 中秋的全部主题。在中国人眼中,月饼象征着全家人的大团圆。 参考译文: Moon cakes are aspecial kind of food in China.

Now we have been out of 3 years of recession. cooperation between 25 countries has helped bring back stability, having a positive impact on world economy and trade. In the past 20 months, the change in the situations is like day and night. However, it’s not the time for us to rest on the su ccess. We should continue to build a healthy and stable market. Despite the recovery, there are still factors that are out of our control: geopolitical crises, disputes between countries and natural disasters. It is important for us to handle these risks and it is crucial to the market in the short term and in the long term. We are in support of the Paris Agreement, which is the most important document about climate change and sustainable energy. Historically, people think renewable energy is the only choice for the future, but I think this idea is misleading. Actually, we need a diversity of energy sources, rather than just one source. New renewable energy sources like solar and wind power are developing rapidly and the share of hydroelectric power remains stable.

2015年12月大学英语四级翻译模拟练习与答案解释

2015年12月大学英语四级翻译模拟练习与答案解释 翻译题目1、 在这个信息爆炸的时代,大学生的阅读习惯变得碎片化、功利化。一项调查结果显示,许多大学生每日阅读不足1小时,而上网时间却超过了4小时。现在年轻人喜欢看一些“更实用的”书籍,如考试指导及职业指南。专家指出,碎片化、功利化阅读削弱了学生的思考以及分析能力。他们一再强调,学生应多去阅读人文作品以提升自身的审美品位(aesthetic taste)。 表达难点 1.第1句中的“大学生的阅读习惯变得碎片化、功利化”如果直译为the reading habit of college students becomes fragmented and utilitarian 则意思传达得不清晰,应转换成“大学生以……方式来阅读”(read in a…manner),以便于理解。 2.第2句中的“每日阅读时间不足1小时,而上网时间却超过了4小时”如果直译为the time for reading is less than one hour every day, while the time online is more than four hours 则表达冗长、生硬,不如译为动词短语read for…, but spend…,这样处理更简洁、更符合英语表达习惯。 3.在倒数第2句中,“能力”的定语“学生的思考以及分析”较长,可将其处理成后置定语,用不定式短语to think and analyze 来表达。 4.在最后一句中“一再强调(某人做某亊)”的常用表达是insist that(sb. do sth.):“以提升自身的审美品位”表目的,故将其处理成目的状语,译作to develop aesthetic taste of their own. 参考译文 In an era of information explosion, college students are now reading in a fragmented and utilitarian manner. According to a survey, many college students read for less than an hour every day, but spend more than four hours online daily. Young people nowadays like to read "more practical" books, such as guidance for exams and occupations. Experts pointed out that fragmented and utilitarian reading undermine students' ability to think and analyze. They insist that students read more humanity works to develop aesthetic taste of their own. 翻译题目2、 俗话说,“到北京,不到长城非好汉,不吃烤鸭(roast duck)真遗憾!”烤鸭是北京的地方风味,已有1600多年的历史。对于那些想更多地了解中国菜和中国文化习俗的人来说,北京烤鸭就是一个不错的选择。脆皮(crisp skin)和嫩肉是北京烤鸭的特点。北京最出名的老字号(centuries-old/time-honored brand)烤鸭店是“全聚德”。创建于1864年的全聚德备受各国元首、政府官员及国内外游客喜爱。 表达难点 1.第1句中的“不到长城非好汉,不吃烤鸭真遗憾!”若逐字对译0ne who fails to Great Wal1 is not a hero and it is a pity if you do not dine on Beijing Roast Duck,则句子显得冗长、生硬。釆用意译的方法将其表达为 No visit to Beijing is complete if you miss seeing the Great Wall or dining on Beying Roast Duck则更胜一筹,句子结构对称,语言简洁且到位。

全国翻译专业资格(水平)考试英语三级笔译实务模拟试题

全国翻译专业资格(水平)考试英语三级笔译实务模拟试题 Part 1 English-Chinese Translation (英译汉) Translate the following passage into Chinese and write your translation on the ANSWER SHEET (60 points, 100 minutes). I leave the vault, and as the guard closes the door, a marine archaeologist asks if I want to see anything else. As an example he shows me an astrolabe, a navigation tool that preceded the sextant. Few have survived. "We have three of the oldest known," he says. He directs me to a paper on astrolabes written by a Cuban colleague, who quoted a 16th-century instruction: "He who wants to take the sun with an astrolabe at sea, must be seated near the main mast, the place where the boat oscillates the least and is quiet." I want to take the measure of Cubas past, so I tell the archaeologist I would like to go to the place where the plain things are. I am here not only to see treasures that glitter but also to see and touch objects that illumine moments of the past. Smiling, he takes me into storage rooms where he and other archaeologists preserve cargoes from four centuries of wrecks. Jumbled on these shelves is the stuff of Cubas long reign as counting house and command center for Spains New World colonies. I see knickknacks destined for one of the annual 18th-century trade fairs, where Cubans bought imports from Spain. I also see, pallid from centuries in the sea, dozens of little painted ceramic dogs, lions, cats, and deer later shipped from England. Stacked nearby are sets of dinner dishes, tankards, an hourglass, a bottle of very Old Spanish wine. On another day, in fading light, I walk the ramparts of El Morro, its lighthouse standing tall over Havanas harbor. The old fortress, by day a warren of tourist stops, changes by night, looming deeper into the shadows of Havanas past. As torches light the darkness, I watch Cuban soldiers, costumed as 18th-century Spanish sentries, march along the ramparts of the Castillo de San Carlos and fire a cannon that salutes

大学英语四级翻译练习

翻译练习1 2018秋季学期(2015-6-3) 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。 参考译文: In the eyes of Westerners,the basic food most closely connected with China is rice. It has played such an important role in Chinese diets for a long time that there is a Chinese proverb saying “Even a clever housewife cannot cook a meal without rice.” People in South China mostly grow rice and they usually take it as staple food,while the main crop in most parts of North China is wheat because it is either too cold or too dry to grow rice. In China, some people make bread with flour, but most people use it to make steamed buns and noodles. 翻译练习2 2018秋季学期(2015-12-1) 中国的父母往往过于关注孩子的学习,以至于不要他们帮忙做家务。他们对孩子的首要要求就是努力学习,考得好,能上名牌大学。他们相信这是为孩子好,因为在中国这样竞争激烈的社会里,只有好成绩才能保证前途光明。中国父母还认为,如果孩子在社会上取得大的成就,父母就会受到尊重。因此,他们愿意牺牲自己的时间,爱好和兴趣,为孩子提供更好的条件。 参考译文: Chinese parents tend to focus so excessively on their children’s study that they keep their children away from the housework. Their primary requirement for their kids is to study hard, get high scores and manage to attend prestigious universities. Parents are convinced that this is to the benefit of their children, because only high scores can guarantee their kids a promising future in a highly competitive society like China. Chinese parents also believe that they as parents will be respected if their children achieve great accomplishments in society. Therefore, they are willing to provide their children with a better condition at the expense of their own time, hobbies and interests. 翻译练习3 2018秋季学期(2015-12-2)

2016年12月英语四级翻译真题及参考答案

Part Ⅳ Translation (30 minutes) Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese to English. You should write your answer on Answer Sheet 2. 2016年12月英语四级翻译真题及参考答案(卷一)红色 在中国文化中,红色通常象征着好运、长寿和幸福,在春节和其他喜庆场合,红色到处可见。人们把现金作为礼物送给家人或亲密朋友时,通常放在红信封里。红色在中国流行的另一个原因是人们把它与中国革命和共产党相联系。然而,红色并不总是代表好运与快乐。因为从前死者的名字常用红色书写,用红墨水写中国人名被看成是一种冒犯行为。 参考范文:

在中国文化中,黄颜色是一种很重要的颜色,因为它具有独特的象征意义。在封建(feudal)社会中,它象征统治者的权力和权威。那时,黄色是专为皇帝使用的颜色,皇家宫殿全都漆成黄色,皇袍总是黄色的,而普通老百姓是禁止穿黄色衣服的。在中国,黄色也是收获的象征。秋天庄稼成熟时,田野变得一片金黄。人们兴高采烈,庆祝丰收。 要点1:黄颜色是一种很重要的颜色yellow is an important color, 相信这句大家都能译的出来,不过要注意:“黄颜色”不需要写yellow color,因为yellow本来就是黄色。 要点2:它具有独特的象征意义which carries a unique symbolic meaning. 要点3:它象征着统治者的权利和权威It embodies rulers’ power and authority.此处,统治者可以接受的译法还有:governor, dominator 都是可以的。象征还可以写成symbolize,represent. 要点4:皇家宫殿全都漆成黄色royal palaces were painted with yellow. 皇家宫殿royal palaces,皇帝emperor,黄袍imperial robes. 要点5:普通老百姓是禁止穿黄色衣服的average people were not allowed to wear yellow clothes,禁止还可以用:ban, forbid. 要点6:秋天庄稼成熟时,田野变得一片金黄When crops are ripe in Fall,the farmlands become a piece of golden yellow.

Section1: English-Chinese Translation(英译汉)(50 points)Translate the following passage into Chinese. The time for this section is 100 minutes. PALOS DE LA FRONTERA, Spain — Back home in Gambia, Amadou Jallow was, at 22, a lover of reggae who had just finished college and had landed a job teaching science in a high school. But Europe beckoned. In his West African homeland, Mr. Jall ow?s salary was the equivalent of just 50 euros a month, barely enough for the necessities, he said. And everywhere in his neighborhood in Serekunda, Gambia?s largest city, there was talk of easy money to be made in Europe. Now he laughs bitterly about all that talk. He lives in a patch of woods here in southern Spain, just outside the village of Palos de la Frontera, with hundreds of other immigrants. They have built their homes out of plastic sheeting and cardboard, unsure if the water they drink from an open pipe is safe. After six years on the continent, Mr. Jallow is rail thin, and his eyes have a yellow tinge. “We are not bush people,” he said recently as he gathered twigs to start a fire. “You think you are civilized. But this is how we live here. We suffer here.” The political upheaval in Libya and elsewhere in North Africa has opened the way for thousands of new migrants to make their way to Europe across the Mediterranean. Already some 25,000 have reached the island of Lampedusa, Italy, and hundreds more have arrived at Malta. The boats, at first, brought mostly Tunisians. But lately there have been more sub-Saharans. Experts say thousands more — many of whom have been moving around North Africa trying to get to Europe for years, including Somalis, Eritreans, Senegalese and Nigerians — are likely to follow, sure that a better life awaits them. But for Mr. Jallow and for many others who arrived before them, often after days at sea without food or water, Europe has offered hardships they never imagined. These days Mr. Jallow survives on two meals a day, mostly a leaden paste made from flour and oil, which he stirs with a branch. “It keeps the hunger away,” he said. The authorities estimate that there are perhaps 10,000 immigrants living in the woods in the southern Spanish province of Andalusia, a region known for its crops of strawberries, raspberries and blueberries, and there are thousands more migrants in areas that produce olives, oranges and vegetables. Most of them have stories that echo Mr. Jal low?s. From the road, their encampments look like igloos tucked among the trees. Up close, the squalor is clear. Piles of garbage and flies are everywhere. Old clothes, stiff from dirt and rain, hang from branches. “There is everything in there,” said Diego Ca?amero, the leader of the farm workers? union in Andalusia, which tries to advocate for the men. “You have rats and snakes and mice and fleas.” The men in the woods do not call home with the truth, though. They send pictures of themselves posing next to Mercedes cars parked on the street, the kind of pictures that Mr. Jallow says he fell for so many years ago. Now he shakes his head toward his neighbors, who will not talk to reporters. “So many lies,” he said. “It is terrible what they are doing. But they are embarrassed.”
