It died suddenly, in a terrible rain of fire and ash. The tragedy struck on the 24th of August, A.D.79. Mount Vesuvius, which had slept quietly for centuries, erupted with savage violence. Tons of hot ash fell on Pompeii, hiding it from sight. For three days the sun did not break through the clouds of volcanic ash that filled the sky. And when the eruption ended, Pompeii was buried deep. A city had perished.庞贝古城,猝不及防地湮灭于从天而降的火焰和灰烬中。
这场悲剧发生在公元79年8月24日。
在那一天,沉睡了几个世纪的维苏威火山,释放了它狂暴的破坏力。
火山喷发出成吨的灼热火山灰,它们洒落到庞贝古城,灰幕笼罩其上空达三日之久,这座城市再无天日。
火山喷发平息后,庞贝古城已深埋于灰烬中。
一个城市就此毁于一旦。
Springs are not always the same. In some years, April bursts upon our Virginia hills in one prodigious leap and all the stage is filled at once, whole choruses of tulips, arabesques of forsythia, cadenzas of flowering plum. The trees grow leaves overnight.In other years, spring tiptoes in. It pauses, overcome by shyness, like my grandchild at the door, peeping in, ducking out of sight, giggling in the hallway. “I know you are out there,”I cry. “Come in!”and April slips into our arms.春天并非总是一模一样。

要求:字数不得少于150字。
燕子去了,有再来的时候;杨柳枯了,有再青的时候;桃花谢了,有再开的时候。
但是,聪明的,你告诉我,我们的日子为什么一去不复返呢?——是有人偷了他们吧:那是谁?又藏在何处呢?是他们自己逃走了吧:现在又到了哪里呢?我不知道他们给了我多少日子;但我的手确乎是渐渐空虚了。
在默默里算着,八千多日子已经从我手中溜去;像针尖上一滴水滴在大海里,我的日子滴在时间的流里,没有声音,也没有影子。
我不禁汗涔涔而泪潸潸了。
1)Rush (translated by Zhu Chunshen)Swallows may have gone, but there is a time of return; willow trees may have died back, but there is a time of re-greening; peach blossoms may have fallen, but they will bloom again. Now, you the wise, tell me, why should our days leave us, never to return? — If they had been stolen by someone, who could it be? Where could he hide then? If they had made the escape themselves, then where could they stay at the moment?I do not know how many days I have been given to spend, but I do feel my hands are getting empty. Taking stock silently, I find that more than eight thousand days has already slid away from me. Like a drop of water from the point of a needle disappearing into the ocean, my days are dripping into the stream of time, soundless, traceless. Already sweat is starting on my forehead, and tears welling up in my eyes.2)Transient Days (translated by Zhang Peiji)If swallows go away, they will come back again. If willows wither, they will turn green again. If peach blossoms fade, they will flower again. But, tell me, you the wise, why should our days go by never to return? Perhaps they have been stolen by someone. But who could it be and where could he hide them? Perhaps they have just run away by themselves. But where could they be at the present moment?I don't know how many days I am entitled to altogether, but my quota of them is undoubtedly wearing away. Counting up silently, I find that more than 8,000 days have already slipped away through my fingers. Like a drop of water falling off a needle point into the ocean, my days are quietly dripping into the stream of time without leaving a trace. At the thought of this, sweat oozes from my forehead and tears trickle down my cheeks.3)Days Gone By (translated by Zhang Mengjing)When the swallows have gone, there is still time to return; when the poplar and willow trees have become withered, there is still time to see green; when the peach flowers have already faded, there is still time to blossom. But please tell me, the genius, why then have my days gone and never returned? If some people have stolen them, then who are they? And where are they hidden? If they have escaped by themselves, then where are they now?I don't know how many days I have been given, but the in my hands are becoming numbered. Counting silently, eight thousand days have slipped by. Just like water drops a pinpoint dripping slowly into the vast ocean, my days been dripping into the river of time, quietly and invisibly. I can’t help dripping with sweat and weeping many tears.注:格式:5号宋体(英语部分用times new roman),题目用黑体。

在跨语言、跨文化的翻译交际过程中,难 免会出现差异,探索语言、文化的差异性并分 析其原因,有利于避免产生失误,提高翻译质 量。我们知道,英语重客体,重形式上的逻辑 关系;汉语重关系,重意合,重主体。汉语重 人际关系;英语重客观事实。汉语重含蓄;英 语重精确。这便是英汉两种语言在风格上和文 化上的差异,正是这种文化差异造成了翻译中 的障碍和难题。

例3:He tried to seem angry, but his smile betrayed him.
A. 他装出生气的样子,可是笑容暴露了他的真实情 感。
B. 他试图看上去是生气的样子,但是他的笑容背叛 了他。
C. 他试图生气忍住不笑。 D. 他心里很生气,却笑不出来。
3. 1. 1 英语重形合,汉语重意合
英语重形合(hypotaxis)是指英语语言符号之间有较强 的逻辑关系;汉语重意合(parataxis)是指汉语句子主要通 过字词的意义连结起来。汉字起源于象形文字,文字的图 形表示其意义,并引起意义上的联想,发展形象思维;英 语是拼音文字,字母是基本的文字表达符号,词的拼写与 发音按一定的发音规则形成逻辑关系,而字母对意义而言 只是意义的替代符号,语言信息的表达依靠符号按一定的 语法逻辑关系排列组合,所以说英语是一种重形式逻辑的 语言。
语言的表达方式不仅与文化有着密切的关系, 而且与思维及逻辑方式有着密切的关系。这种思维 及逻辑方式的差异在语言表达方式上的表现既存在 于语篇的思路和结构上,也存在于句子水平上。

Shanghai means “above the sea”. It is on the Huangpu River. The Huangpu River is the lower tributary at the mouth of the Yangtze. Energy is much needed now. And nuclear plants are clean and economical. They can produce vast amount of energy. But many people are very concerned about safety. They hold a strong negative attitude towards them. The rural area is far from the city, and lack transport facilities. This makes it isolated from the outside world. And because it is difficult to access information this isolation is compound.

With a knowledge of natural sciences, one can go anywhere in the world.补充人称代词三天没洗澡,一身臭汗。
We are smelling of three-day old sweat.补充逻辑推导产生的主语只有等着瞧了。
Only time can tell.8.主语转移的一般规范(背下来)必须紧扣原意,只要不违背全句的总体意义,选择可灵活变通,不拘一格。
必须密切顾及英语的习惯表达法。
必须同时顾及便于英语句子的成形,也就是说必须顺应英语SV提挈机制的决定性作用。
必须充分注意到不同的主语选择可能带来的意义差别,特别是强调意义的差别。
9.推导主语的规范(背下来)原句的动词常常是我们展开推导的出发点和根据。
一般说来,它可以给我们提供准确的、边切的推导线索,推导出与之搭配的施动者。
原句的总体意义是我们展开推导的最重要的依据,特别是在汉语原句中没有谓语动词时,全局的总体意义就是最重要的根据。
推出补加主语时,常常必须把握住原语材料的关涉对象,即文章为谁而写、议论为谁而发、内容牵涉到谁,等等。
三名词差异11.英汉名词的翻译原则(举例说明)Principle of Amplification 增词原则Adversaries ['ædvəsəri] are powerful without question.毫无疑问,每一个对手的实力都很强大。
Principle of Omission 省略原则一条条新修的公路把这个小镇和外界连在一起。
The new-built roads connect this small town to the outside world.四动词差异12.六个差异概念说明,其中第五点连动式、兼语式举个例子(一) 现代汉语以动词占优势,也就是说,在现代汉语中,一个句子不限于只用一个动词,可以连续使用几个动词,即所谓“动词连用”。
动词连用是现代汉语句法显著特征之一。
英语每个句子中只能使用一个定式动词(finite ['fainait] verb),唯一例外型式是并列句动词谓语。
所以汉语动词翻成英语时,有时只需要用一个动词,其他动词被转换成英语的名词、介词、非谓语动词或其他词类。
(二)英语动词有及物动词(transitive verb)和不及物动词(intransitive verb)之分。
汉语动词多数都是及物的,只有极少数是不及物的。
因此,在翻译时就会出现交错的现象。
为了防止混淆,必须注意下面几点:1.有些动词英语是及物的,汉语却是不及物的。
2.有些动词英语是不及物的,汉语却是及物的。
3.英语有些及物动词变成不及物动词时,意义要起变化。
4.英语及物动词一般都要带宾语,汉语在一定上下文中却可以省略。
(三)英语动词表“时”(tense),主要通过语法手段,即字形的变化。
如:go,going,went,gone等。
汉语却用词汇手段和句法手段来表示“时”的变化。
如用“了”、“着”、“过”、“已经”、“就要”、“现在”、“将来”、“正在”、“过去”、“今天”、“明天”、“昨天”等词,此外汉语有时不用特殊的时间词,而用整个句子的叙述、论说、判断等来表示时间。
即用句法手段。
(四)英语谓语动词的时态复杂,但汉语谓语的构成却比英语复杂。
英语谓语主要是动词,但汉语除了用动词作谓语外,还可以用形容词、籍贯、天气和日子的名词来作谓语。
(五)如上所述,汉语的特点之一,就是有些句子往往连用两个或更多的动词,中间不用任何关联词语。
我们称之为复杂的谓语结构。
这种结构又可分为两种类型:连动式和兼语式。
汉语连动式的特点是:两个或两个以上的动词,与同一主语发生主谓关系。
他们热烈鼓掌欢迎日本来宾。
(前一个动作表示后一个动作的方式)汉语兼语式的特点:谓语有两个动词,前一动词的宾语,又是后一动词的主语,前后两个动词不共一个主语。
他叫我到这里来。
(六)从上面几节中所述,我们知道,汉语倾向于多用动词,英语倾向于多用名词和介词。
认识英汉不同词类优势或用词倾向,这对于提高译文质量很有益处。
可以使译文更加通顺,确切。
四副词差异13.有的与形容词同形的副词,有无-ly,意思却不同。
He was famous even then.即使在那时他已有名气了。
She spread the butter evenly on the bread.她把奶油均匀地涂在面包上。
She came home late.她很晚才回家。
She hasn't been home lately.她最近不在家。
