Stylistics and Translation
3.Some fishing boats were becalmed just in front of us. Their shadows slept, or almost slept, upon the water, a gentle quivering alone showing that was not complete sleep or if sleep, that was sleep with dream.
•Translation consists in producing in the receptor language the closest natural equivalent of the source language message, first in terms of meaning and secondly in terms of style. (Eugine. A.Nida) •Translation is the expression in one language (or target language) of what have been expressed in another (source language) preserving semantic and stylistic equivalence. (Dubois. J. et al)

•Any original work has the three functions, but different writings are characterized by different functions.
•Newmark says, “The main functions of language are expressive (the subjective or “I” form), the descriptive or informative (the „it‟ from), and the vocative or directive or persuasive (the „you‟ form).

These varieties are the “styles” .(文体)

•literary work: focuses on the expressive function non-literary works: mainly center on informative function. For example:
1.He laughs best who runs longest.

Translation principles
A.F. Tytler‟s three laws of translation: 1) The translation should give a complete transcript of the ideas of the original work. 2)The style and manner of writing should be of the same character with that of the original. 3)The translation should have all the ease of the original.

Stylistics and Translation
According to linguists Buler and Jackbson, there are three functions of language: expressive function(表情功能), informative function(信 息功能), and vocative function(呼唤功能).
Back
stylistics covers such fields:
1) analyzing various habits of language use to ensure the typical characteristics of a certain style; 2) explaining the reason that a certain style has its own characteristics; 3) classifying these character according to their language functions.
Back
stylistics covers such fields:
As a matter of fact, different writings have different linguistic characteristics in the aspects of vocabulary, syntax, rhetoric, structure etc.
翻译是运用一种语言把另一种语言所表达的思维内 容准确而完整地重新表达出来的语言活动。(张培 基) 把已说出或写出的话的意思用另一种语言表达出来 的活动。(季羡林、许国璋) 翻译是将一种语言文字所蕴含的意思用另外一种语 言文字表达出来的文化活动。(王克非)

大学第一周英文作文带翻译英文:As a college student, the first week of school is always exciting and nerve-wracking at the same time. There are so many new experiences and opportunities to look forward to, but also a lot of unknowns and uncertainties. Here are some of my thoughts on how the first week of college went for me.First of all, I was really excited to meet new people and make new friends. I attended a lot of orientation events and joined some clubs that interested me, which helped me to meet people with similar interests. I also made an effort to introduce myself to my classmates and dorm mates, which was a bit nerve-wracking at first but ended up being a great way to break the ice.Another thing that I noticed during the first week was how different college classes are from high school classes.The workload is much heavier and the pace is much faster, which can be overwhelming at times. However, I found that staying organized and managing my time effectively helped me to stay on top of things.One of the biggest challenges for me during the first week was adjusting to living away from home. I had never lived on my own before, so it was a big change. However, I tried to make my dorm room feel like home by decorating it with pictures and other personal items. I also made sure to stay in touch with my family and friends back home, which helped me to feel less homesick.Overall, the first week of college was a mix of excitement, nerves, and challenges. However, I feel like I learned a lot and grew as a person. I'm looking forward to seeing what the rest of college has in store for me.中文:作为一名大学生,开学的第一周总是让人兴奋又紧张。

Chapter 1工程英语翻译概述
通顺是指译文语言要符合规范,行文通顺。要力争 做到忠实与通顺的辩正统一。
一方面要防止对忠实的片面理解,一味追求形式上 的相似,造成逐字死译。另一方面又要防片面强调 “通顺”,而不忠实于原文。
工程英语注重逻辑性,因此分词连接成分 (Participle Connectors) 的使用率很高, 例如:
Supposing that …假定、假设 Assuming that …假定、假设 Provided that …倘若、只要 Seeing that …由于、鉴于
3. 透彻分析深层结构
Examples:
1.Progress control is obtained by comparing actual performance on the work against the desired performance set up on the master or detailed schedules. 进度控制是通过比较工程实际进度与主要(或详细) 进度表中确定的预期进度来进行的。

第一章 工程英语翻译概述
Warm-up Exercise
Placing is the process of transferring the fresh concrete from the conveying device to its final place in the forms. Prior to placing, loose rust must be removed from reinforcement, forms must be cleaned, and hardened surfaces of previous concrete lifts must be cleaned and treated appropriately. Placing and compacting are critical in their effect on the final quality of the concrete. Proper placement must avoid segregation, displacement of forms or of reinforcement in the forms, and poor bond between successive layers of concrete.
