(英语the ripples of the gentle sea 译成汉语时在结构上作了调整,这样译文念起来意思清楚,行文漂亮。

But expensive things are inevitably the province(范围) of the rich unless we abdicate(退位、放弃) society’s power of choice. We can choose to make opera and other expensive forms of culture, accessible(易接近的,可达到的) to those who cannot individually pay for it. The question is: why should we? No body denies the imperatives(必要的)of food, shelter, defence, health and education. But even in a prehistoric cave, man-kind stretched out a hand of not just to eat, drink or fight, but also to draw. The impulse(冲动) towards culture, the desire to express and explore the world through imagination and representation(表述、陈述)is fundamental. In Europe, this desire has found fulfillment(完成、成就) in the masterpieces of our music, art, literature and theatre. These masterpieces are the touchstones(标准、试金石) for all our efforts; they are the touchstones for the possibilities to which human thought and imagination may aspire(立志、追求目标、渴望); they carry the most profound (深厚的、深刻的)messages that can be sent from one human to another.参考译文:欣赏歌剧是一种奢侈:你必须为此支付昂贵的票价。

可是,上海这座近代大城市却更有它的另一面,它有活力、它聪慧、革新、进取,它敢于担风险,有竞争意识及机制,这种城市意识或风格,使人奋发,跟上时代,走向进步。

(参考译文)In the contemporary period, Shanghai as a metropolis infested by foreign adventurers has indeed recorded, since the opening of its commercial port, a bitter, blood-and-tear history of many miseries and inequalities. Referred to as the Paradise of Adventurers, Shanghai was indeed home to "human sludge and filth" where one could find opium, dissolute women and gamblers. It was a place that made people indulge in luxury and dissipation and given to sensuous pleasures, even inducing people to become degenerate. However, there is a different and more important picture of Shanghai as a modern metropolis. It has been full of vitality and vigor, displaying its unique intelligence and wisdom, characterized by an innovative and enterprising spirit. It has the courage to assume risks and is in possession of both the awareness and the mechanism of competition. Such a metropolitan mentality or style inspires its residents, encouraging them to keep abreast with the changingepochs and to make efforts toward greater progress.英语专业八级翻译练习及答案 2(原文)wnauy徐霞客一生周游考察了16个省,足迹几乎遍及全国。

国王⾮常欣赏他的善举,便封他为圣者。

有⼀天,圣者过⼋⼗⼤寿,国王前来庆贺,特别带来⼀位画家,想通过画家的笔,将这位圣者慈祥的容貌画下来,作为世⼈的典范。

⽤完晚餐之后,众多的嘉宾前来观赏这幅慈爱的画。

肖像画家将这幅画像拿出来的时候,所有⼈⼤吃⼀惊。

因为画⾥的'⼈根本没有慈善的⾯貌,反⽽充满暴戾,粗野,邪恶的⽓息。

国王⼀看,⽣⽓地要⼈把画家拖出去鞭打。

这时,圣者听到惊呼声,跑了过来,他看到这幅画后,跪倒在地:“国王,这画⾥的⼈,才是真实的我啊。

”国王惊诧地问:“为什么?”圣者道:“这就是我⼀⽣挣扎着,不想去做的那个⼈啊。

” 在这世上,没有天⽣的圣者,惟有能时时刻刻⾃我反省,⾃我检视的⼈,才能成为圣者。

参考译⽂: The secret of being a saint Once upon a time there lived in a country a do-gooder. The king was very appreciative of his deeds and decided to honour him as a saint by a decree. On the saint's eightieth birthday, the king was invited to his birthday celerbration. He brought with him a painter so as to do a picture of the kindly saint as a paragon for his countrymen. When the feast is over all the guests were asked to have a look at the picture. To their great surprise, when the picture was shown, what they saw was not a kind but a ruthless and cruel look. The king was very angry at seeing this and ordered his men to beat the painter. Upon hearing the noise, the saint rushed to the scene to have a look at the picture. After viewing it, the saint knelt down and said, "your majesty, the person in the picture is none other than me." Why?" said the king, dumbfounded. "This has been the very person whom I have never wanted to be." In this world, there are no naturally born saints; only those who can do self-criticism and sel-examination, can become saints. task 2 次⽇,他们的马车修好了,上⼭来接他们。

Model Test 1TRANSLATION(60MIN)SECTION A CHINESE TO ENGLISHTranslate the underlined part of the text into English.在兽类中我最爱虎,在虎的故事中我最爱下面的一个。

深山中有一所古庙,几个和尚在那里过着单调的修行生活。

同他们做朋友的,除了有时上山来的少数乡下人外,就是几只猛虎。

虎不惊扰僧人,却替他们守护庙宇。

作为报酬,和尚把一些可吃的东西放在庙门前。

每天傍晚,夕阳染红小半个天空,虎们成群地走到庙门口,吃了东西,跳跃而去。

庙门大开,僧人们安然在庙内做他们的日课,也没有谁出去看虎怎样吃东西,即使偶尔有一二和尚立在门前,虎们亦视为平常的事情,把他们看做熟人,不去惊动,却斯斯文文地吃完走开。

如果看不见僧人,虎就发出几声长啸,随着几阵风飞腾而去。

SECTION B ENGLISH TO CHINESETranslate the underlined part of the text into Chinese.When the Romantic Movement was still in its first fervor, it was a common matter of debate whether people should marry for love or for money. The young people concerned usually favored love, and their parents usually favored money. In the novels of the period, the dilemma was felicitously solved by the discovery, on the last page, that the apparently penniless heroine was really a great heiress. But in real life young men who hoped for this denouement were apt to be disappointed. Prudent parents, while admitting that their daughters should marry for love, took care that all the young men they met should be rich. This method was sometimes very successful; it was adopted, for example, by my maternal grandfather, who had a large number of romantic daughters, none of whom married badly.In these days of psychology the matter no longer looks so simple as it did eighty years ago. We realize now that money may be the cause, or part of the cause, of quite genuine love; of this there are notable examples in history.Model Test 2TRANSLATION(60MIN)SECTION A CHINESE TO ENGLISHTranslate the underlined part of the text into English.光绪二十六年,八国联军攻占北京。

的确,写作、旅行、积聚财富都是没有终结的。

一个问题引发另外一个问题。

我们不断学习,且永远达不到心中所渴望的那般学识渊博。

我们永远雕刻不出自己心仪的塑像。

当发现一个新大陆,或翻过一座山脉时,我们总会看到远方还有未曾涉足的海洋与陆地。

宇宙浩渺,总会有供我们勤奋努力的东西,总会有供我们探索的空间。

它不像卡莱尔的著作,可以读完。

即使在其一角,在一个私人花园,或一个农庄附近,四季轮回,天气瞬息万变,哪怕在那里生活了一辈子,也总会有让我们惊喜的事情。

参考译文:“Of making books there is no end, “ complained the Preacher; and did not perceive how highly he was praising letters as an occupation. There is no end, indeed, to making books or experiments, or to travel, or to gathering wealth. Problem gives rise to problem. We may study for ever, and we are never as learned as we would. We have never made a statue worthy of our dreams. And when we have discovered a continent, or crossed a chain of mountains, it is only to find another ocean or another plain upon the further side. In the infinite universe there is room for our swiftest diligence and to spare. It is not like the works of Carlyle, which can be read to an end. Even in a corner of it, in a private park, or in the neighbourhood of a single hamlet, the weather and the seasons keep so deftly changing that although we walk there for a lifetime there will be always something new to startle and delight us. part 2中文原文:当你步入婚姻的殿堂,你可能认为已经爬到了山顶,剩下的只是悠闲地沿着平缓的山坡下山。

There are odd overlappings and abrupt unfamiliarities; kinship yields to a sudden alienation, as when we hail a person across the street, only to discover from his blank response that we have mistaken a stranger for a friend. TEM8(1999) Translate the following underlined part of the text into Chinese: In some societies people want children for what might be called familial reasons: to extend the family line or the family name, to propitiate the ancestors; to enable the proper functioning of religious rituals involving the family. Such reasons may seem thin in the modern, secularized society but they have been and are powerful indeed in other places. In addition, one class of family reasons shares a border with the following category.

英语专业八级翻译试题真题英语专业八级翻译练习题1.英译汉(1)Possession for its own sake or in competition with the rest of the neighborhood would have been Thoreau's idea of the low levels. The active discipline of heightening one's perception of what is enduring in nature would have been his idea of the high. What he saved from the low was time and effort he could spend on the high. Thoreau certainly disapproved of starvation, but he would put into feeding himself only as much effort as would keep him functioning for more important efforts.梭罗所理解的"低层次",即为了拥有而去拥有,或与所有的邻居明争暗斗而致拥有。

他心目中的"高层次",则是这样一种积极的人生戒律,即要使自己对自然界永恒之物的感悟臻于完美。

对于他从低层次上节省下来的时间和精力,他可将其致力于对高层次的追求。

勿庸置疑,梭罗不赞成忍饥挨饿,但他在膳食方面所投入的精力仅果腹而已,只要可确保他能去从事更为重要的事务,他便别无所求。

Effort is the gist of it. There is no happiness except as we take on life-engaging difficulties. Short of the impossible, as Yeats put it, the satisfaction we get from a lifetime depends on how high we choose our difficulties. Robert Frost was thinking in something like the same terms when he spoke of "The pleasure of taking pains". The mortal flaw in the advertised version of happiness is in the fact that it purports to be effortless.殚精竭虑,全力以赴,便是其精髓所在。

(一)英译汉练习1. The winds of November were like summer breezes to him, and his face glowed with the pleasant cold. His cheeks were flushed and his eyes glistened; his vitality was intense, shining out upon others with almost a material warmth.十一月的寒风,对他就像夏天吹拂的凉风一样。

舒适的冷空气使他容光焕发,两颊通红,两眼闪光。

他生气勃勃,叫别人感到是一团炙手的火。

(英语material warmth 字面意思是"物质的温暖",这里具体译作"一团炙手的火"言明意清,让人一看就懂。

)2. It was morning, and the new sun sparkled gold across the ripples of gentle sea. The sea was wonderfully calm and now it was rich with all the color of the setting sun. In the sky already a solitary star twinkled.清晨,初升的太阳照着平静的海面,微波荡漾,闪耀着金色的光芒。

(英语the ripples of the gentle sea 译成汉语时在结构上作了调整,这样译文念起来意思清楚,行文漂亮。

)3. To appease their thirst its readers drank deeper than before, until they were seized with a kind of delirium.为了解渴,读者比以前越饮越深,直到陷入了昏迷状态。

这个句子的译文死抠原文形式,死抠字典释义,翻译腔严重,让人难以明白其意思,可改译为:读者为了满足自己的渴望,越读越想读,直到进入了如痴如醉的状态。

所谓过分表达,就是指译文画蛇添足,增加了原文没有的东西;而欠表达则是省略或删节原文的内容。

翻译时均应避免这类错误。

4. Early Reagan was a mirror image of early Carter.里根上台时在做法上跟执政初期的卡特毫无二致。

(a mirror image 如直译为"镜子里的形象",就让人感到非常别扭,远不如"毫无二致"自然。

)5. Up Broadway he turned, and halted at a glittering café, where are gathered together nightly the choicest products of the grapes, the silkworm and the protoplasm.他拐到百老汇路上,在一家灯火辉煌的饭店前停下来,那里每晚汇集上好的美酒、华丽的衣服和有地位的人物。

6. Words are not themselves a reality but only representation of it, and the King's English, like the Anglo-French of the Normans, is a class representation of reality.单词本身并不是客观物体,只不过是代表客观体而已;像日尔曼人的盎格鲁法语一样,标准英语也是一种代表客观体的语言。

(King's English 不能直译为"国王英语",它是指标准英语,相当于汉语中的"普通话"。

)7. At 19 he had commenced one of those careers attractive and inexplicable to ordinary mortals for whoma single bankruptcy is good as a feast.他19 岁时就已经走上了一条在普通人看来是极富吸引力而又不可理解的道路,普通人认为,只是一次破产就叫人够呛了。

(good as a feast 如直译为"像丰盛的宴席一样好",意思正好反了.直接释明其意"叫人够呛",地道通顺.)8. Mr. Kingsley and his Red Brick boys will have to look to their laurels.金斯利先生和他那些二流大学的学生们必须小心翼翼地保持已经取得的荣誉。

(Red Brick 又称Red Brick Universities,指英国除牛津、剑桥大学以外的其他地方性二流大学。

因其建筑主要是红砖砌成,不象牛津、剑桥的建筑均为古色古香的石块所建成,故得此名。

9. I was extremely worried about her, but this was neither the place nor the time for a lecture or an argument.我真替他万分担忧,但此时此地既不宜教训她一番,也不宜与她争论一通。

英语中没有量词,汉译时就得根据汉语的表达习惯增加合适的量词10. An individual human existence should be like a river-small at first, narrowly contained within its banks, and rushing passionately past boulders and over waterfalls.一个人的一生可以比作一条河流:开始身躯很小,两岸之间非常狭窄,水流湍急,冲过砾石,飞下悬瀑。

11. When I turned around, John was grinning, expectant, studying my face intently to see if he had pleased me. He had.我转过身,只见约翰正咧着嘴笑,满脸期待的神情;他热切的目光想从我的脸上探明他是否博得了我的欢心。

他确实博得了我的欢心。

(增补he had 后被省略的部分)12. Courage in excess becomes foolhardiness, affection weakness, thrift avarice.勇敢过度,即成蛮勇;疼爱过度,即成溺爱;俭约过度,即成贪婪。

(增补被省掉的in excess becomes)13. He doubtlessly expected hugs, tablefuls of food, tears, laughter, and conversation followed by more conversation, then hugs and more hugs all over again,without end.毫无疑问,他以为会有热烈的拥抱,满桌的食物,激动的泪水,欢乐的笑声,一段接一段的谈话,一次又一次的拥抱,没完没了。

(译文中增加了三个相应的形容词,形象地描绘出他想象中的欢乐场景,使意思更加明确,表达更加生动。

)14. The sky is clear blue now the sun has flung diamonds down on meadow and bank and wood.此时已是万里蓝天,太阳把颗颗光彩夺目的钻石洒向草原,洒向河岸,洒向树林。

有时为了意思明确还必须增加合适的名词或是重复同一名词,例如:15. These early cars were slow, clumsy, and inefficient.这些早期的汽车速度缓慢,行动笨拙,效率不高。

(译文中在形容词前分别加上了三个名词,既使译文意思明确,又使它形成四字词组,匀称整齐。

)16. Their host carved, poured, served, cut bread, talked, laughed, proposed healths.他们的主人,(又是)割啊,(又是)倒啊,(又是)上菜啊,(又是)切面包啊,(又是)说啊,(又是)笑啊,(又是)敬酒啊,忙个不停。

(增加语气助词和概括词语)17. Only very slight and very scattering ripples of half-hearted hand-clapping greeted him.欢迎他的只有几下轻轻地、零零落落、冷冷淡淡的掌声。

(叠词)18. I felt a trifle shy at the thought of presenting myself to a total stranger with the announcement that I was going to sleep under his roof, eat his food and drink his whisky, till another boat came in to take me to the port for which I was bound.我要去见一个素不相识的陌生人,向他宣布我得住在他家、吃他的、喝他的,一直等到下一班船到来,把我带到我要去的港口为止──想到这儿,我真有点不好意思了。

(这里,如把"sleep under his roof, eat his food and drink his whisky"直译为"睡在他的屋顶下、吃他的食物、喝他的威士忌",会使语言极为繁冗,不够精练。

译文采用减省译法处理原文,既准确地传达了原意,又使行文简洁,气韵十足,一气呵成。

)19. There was not a sound in her---and around us nothing moved, nothing lived, not a canoe on the water, not a bird in the air, not a cloud in the sky.船上悄然无声,四周一片静谧,死一般沉寂,水面不见轻舟飘动,天空不见小鸟浮云。

20. He appeared at her side, breathing audibly, a moment after she reached the stop. She gazed ahead, rigid.她到车站不一会儿,他便出现在她的身旁,听见他喘息的声音。
