1992年翻译题解
1992年翻译题解71) There is more agreement on the kinds of behavior referred to by the term than there is on○1○2○3how to interpret or classify them. (24 words)○4拆分：○1整句话是一个包含比较状语从句的复合句，句子的结构是：There is more agreement on... than there is on...，第一个比较对象是agreement on the kind of behavior，○2过去分词短语作定语，修饰behavior，○3than所带的第二个比较对象，○4how这个疑问词所带的不定式结构，作介词on的宾语。
炼词：1）behavior有“行为，表现”的意思。
2）refer to有“提到，谈到，所指；参看，查阅”的意思。
3）term有“学期，期间；项目，条款；术语”等意思。
短语in the long term是“从长远的观点看”的意思，in the short term有“从眼前的观点看”的意思，in terms of是“以...的观点；就...而说；在...方面”的意思。
在本句话中，term是“术语”的意思，但是结合上下文，我们可以得知这个词应该指上文的“intelligence（智力）”，所以，我们可以把term这个词翻译为“智力”。
4）interpret是“解释，说明，阐释；口译；演奏，表演”的意思，如：interpret a role （表演一个角色），interpret life（阐明人生的意义），We interpreted his silence as arefusal.（我们认为他的沉默就是拒绝）。
组合：○1主干部分There is more agreement on the kinds of behavior可以直接翻译为“对不同表现有一个更加一致”。

Despite all the many accomplishments since then, we must now acknowledge that Rio has not fulfilled the promises with which the world invested it. After 50 years of diligent and sophisticated work by environmental lawyers on legislation, regulation, principles, treaties, and judicial decisions, how is it that the “ actual landscape” of the world’s resources is still “slipping two steps backward for each forward stride”? Part of the explanation for that disappointing result can be found in the statements issued by a distinguished international collection of prosecutors, judges, and legal scholars at the Rio + 20-re-lated World Congress on Justice, Governance, and Law for Environmental Sustainability. They focused almost exclusively on matters of substantive doctrine and legal procedure. Recommitment to enhancing “law” in this narrow sense—a body of formal rules and principles and the judicial and prosecutorial mechanisms for their application and enforcement—certainly has great value, and that work should go forward vigorously. But the ongoing ecological deterioration is traceable in large part to pervasive social and political attitudes favoring a growth-based model of economic “development”that steadily intensifies human appropriation of planetary resources. To address the root of the problem, it will be argued here, environmental law needs a more expansive society-based conception of “law”, one that activates law as a social institution engaged broadly with the habits and customs, the expectations and aspirations, of people and organizations in their daily lives. Environmental lawyers, then, need a fresh and bold reimagination of their mission, to hone and use their persuasive and analytical skills in creative ways to alter the social dynamic underlying environmental change and to foment a deep commitment to effective stewardship of resources.正确答案：1992年的里约会议标志着环境法达到了最高水平。
考研翻译真题解析
1992年考研翻译真题解析71．There is more agreement on the kinds of behavior referred to by the term than there is on how to interpret or classify them.结构分析：全句属于there be +N. 结构，全句还包含了一个more…than 的比较结构，前后结构对称，都是接了一个句子。
agreement 后面跟了on the kinds of behavior 做其后置定语，behavior 后面又跟了过去分词referred to by the term作其后置定语；而than there is 后面又省略了一个相同的词汇agreement. 所以全句理解为：There（there be结构的翻译－增加泛指主语）is more（比较结构）agreement on the kinds of behavior referred to by the term than（比较结构）there is 省略（agreement）on how to interpret or classify them（指代关系）.参考译文：人们对（智力）这个词所指的各种行为的看法一致，而如何对其进行解释或分类，人们的看法则不尽相同。
测试点：比较结构；介词和过去分词做后置定语，省略；指代关系举一反三：more A than B短语的译法：1. 如果这个结构前后接的是短语，则通常翻译成为：与其说B，不与说A；或翻译成：有A无B。
比如：He is more brave than wise. 与其说他聪明，不与说他勇敢。
然后意译为：他有勇无谋。
2. 如果前后接的是句子，则常翻译为：有A，而没有B。
72．Intelligence test is a rough measure of a child’s capacity for learning, particularly for learning the kinds of things required in school. It does not measure character, social adjustment, physical endurance, manual skills, or artistic abilities. It is not supposed to---it was not designed for such purposes. 12. To criticize it for such failure is roughly comparable to criticizing a thermometer for not measuring wind velocity.结构分析：全句是用不定式To criticize it for such failure做主语（it指代什么，需要到上文去寻找，因为it是单数，应该到前面去找到一个单数名词，而前面两个句子都是用it做主语，所以再往前找到第一句的主语intelligence test，所以it应该指代前面的智力测试，）such failure属于名词指代的重要考点；（因为failure表示“没有”的意思，因此我们可以往上去找一个带有否定意思的词语，根据层层指代，such purposes, not supposed to, 再到not measure character, social adjustment，我们由此可以推断such failure 指代智力测试不能测试人的性格等特点的情况）。

71) There is more agreement on the kinds of behavior referred to by the term than there is on○1○2○3how to interpret or classify them. (24 words)○4拆分：○1整句话是一个包含比较状语从句的复合句，句子的结构是：There is more agreement on... than there is on...，第一个比较对象是agreement on the kind of behavior，○2过去分词短语作定语，修饰behavior，○3than所带的第二个比较对象，○4how这个疑问词所带的不定式结构，作介词on的宾语。
炼词：1）behavior有“行为，表现”的意思。
2）refer to有“提到，谈到，所指；参看，查阅”的意思。
3）term有“学期，期间；项目，条款；术语”等意思。
短语in the long term是“从长远的观点看”的意思，in the short term有“从眼前的观点看”的意思，in terms of是“以...的观点；就...而说；在...方面”的意思。
在本句话中，term是“术语”的意思，但是结合上下文，我们可以得知这个词应该指上文的“intelligence（智力）”，所以，我们可以把term这个词翻译为“智力”。
4）interpret是“解释，说明，阐释；口译；演奏，表演”的意思，如：interpret a role （表演一个角色），interpret life（阐明人生的意义），We interpreted his silence as arefusal.（我们认为他的沉默就是拒绝）。
组合：○1主干部分There is more agreement on the kinds of behavior可以直接翻译为“对不同表现有一个更加一致”。
agreement是“一致”的意思，但是根据增译法，我们可以增加“意见，看法”这样表示概念范畴的名词，所以翻译为“一致意见，一致看法”最好。
同时，根据There b e句型的翻译方法，常常在There be句型前面加泛指的主语“人们”，所以，这句话可以翻译为“人们对不同表现有更加一致的意见”或者“人们对不同表现的看法更加一致”。
○2referred to by the term可以直接翻译为“这个术语所指的”，而the term是指上文的“intelligence（智力）”，所以可以调整为“智力所指的”。
同时，这个分词短语修饰前面的“表现”，所以如果把○1+○2组合起来是“人们对智力所指的不同表现的看法更加一致”。
○3than there is on是than there is agreement on ...的省略，结合上文，如果把○1+○2+○3组合在一起就可以翻译为“人们对智力所指的不同表现，比对...看法更加一致”。
○4how to interpret or classify them.可以直接翻译为“如何解释或者分类他们”，可是这样的翻译既不通顺，也不完整，主要原因是them这个代词没有指代清楚。
根据上文，可以很清楚的看出them所指代的是“不同表现”，所以，可以把这句话翻译为“这些表现如何解释或者分类”。
这样，如果把○1+○2+○3组合的结果和○4组合起来，整个译文就是：人们对智力所指的不同表现，比对这些表现如何分类或者解释，看法更加一致。
完整译文：人们对智力所指的不同表现，比对这些表现如何分类或者解释，看法更加一致。
考点小结：（1）比较结构；（2）There be句型。
72) To criticise it for such failure is roughly comparable to criticising a thermometer for not○1○2○3measuring wind velocity.（18 words）拆分：○1整句话是一个简单句，主语是To criticise it for...，○2谓语部分是is comparable to...，○3宾语部分是criticising...for...。
炼词：1)criticise是“批评，挑剔，责难；分析，评估或者评论...的优点和缺点，分析和评价”的意思。
如：His policies were severely criticized.（他的政策受到了严厉批评），Wouldyou like to read and criticize my new book? （你愿不愿意读一读我的新书并给以评论）。
注意：critic是“批评家，评论家”的意思。
critical是“批评的，批判的；批判性的；有判断力的；严重的，危险的；紧急的”等意思。
如：a critical thinker（有判断力的思想家），a man with a critical eye（具有批判眼光的人），a critical illness（危险的病），be critical of sth.（对某事表示谴责），a critical decision（重大的决定）。
2)roughly是“概略地，大约，几乎；粗糙地”等意思。
3)comparable有“相似的，相等的，同等的”的意思，如：A comparable car would costfar more in Europe.（一辆象这样好的汽车在欧洲可要贵得多），pianists of comparableability.（能力相当的钢琴家）；还有“可比拟的，可比较的，比得上的，比较而言”的意思，如：Our house is not comparable with yours.（我们的房子比不上你们的）。
comparable的名词形式是comparison，它有“比较，对照（指行为）”的意思，如：My shoes are small in comparison with my sister's.（我的鞋子比我妹妹的要小）；comparison还有“相似，比拟”的意思，如：There is no comparison between them.（二者之间无相似之处）。
comparable动词形式是compare，compare有“比较，对照”的意思，如：compare one thing with another（将一物与另一物比较）；compare还有“比喻，显示相同之处，比作...”的意思，如：Man's life is often compared to acandle.（人生常被喻为蜡烛），A teacher's work is often compared to a candle.（教师的工作常被比作蜡烛）；compare还有“与...比较，比得上”的意思，常常与介词with连用，如：Living in a town can't compare with living in the country in many respects.（在许多方面城市生活比不上在乡村生活）。
请注意compare的用法：（1）当它涉及描述不同事物相似性的活动时，compare常用介词to，如：He compared her to asummer day.（他将她比为夏天）；(2) 当涉及考察两个相象的事物以辨别他们的相似或差别时，它常用介词with，如：The police compared the forged signature with theoriginal.（警察将伪造的签名与原来的作比较）。
4)thermometer是一个专有名词，它由therm-（热, 热电）和meter（表，仪表）组合在一起的，是“温度计，体温计”的意思。
5)measure当动词用，有“量，测量，估量，测定；比较，权衡，仔细考虑”等意思，如：The inch measures length.（英寸是长度的测量单位），He measures his words withcaution in translation.（他在翻译的时候仔细斟酌着字句）。
Measure还可以当名词用，有“量度，计量单位；措施，办法”等意思，如：A meter is a measure of length.（米是长度单位），They took strong measures against dangerous drivers.（他们对危害公众的司机采取强硬的措施）。
请注意跟measure短语有：in a measure（部分地，在某种程度上）in a great /large measure（在很大程度上，大部分），in good measure（分量足，充分地），in some measure（在某种程度上），take measures to do sth.（采取措施做某事）。
6)velocity也是一个专有名词，是“速度，速率”的意思。
组合：○1整个句子的主语是To criticise it for such failure，其中的介词for表原因，所以直接翻译为“因为这样的失败而批评它”。
但是如果把代词it指代清楚，译文则更通顺。
返回原文中，我们可以从上文看出代词it指代“intelligence test（智力测试）”，这样我们可以把上面的译文调整为“因为这样的失败而批评智力测试”。
再推敲译文，我们发现“这样的失败（such failure）”在句子中显得也不太通顺，再看看上下文，就可以知道such failure （这样的失败）是指上文中It does not measure character，social adjustment，physical endurance，manual skills，or artistic abilities... （智力测验并不测定人的品格、社会适应能力、身体耐力、手工技能或艺术才能...）这样的一种情况。
所以，可以再进一步调整译文为：批评智力测试并不能反映上述情况。
但必须明确的是，“因为这样的失败而批评智力测试”这个译文也是正确的译文。
