成人英語三級翻譯技巧：能夠直譯盡量不意譯英譯漢時應注意以下幾個方面1 總的原則（1）翻譯時既要忠實于原文，又要符合漢語的習慣（2）翻譯不可太拘泥。拘泥、刻板的翻譯因死守原文語言形式而損害了原文思想內容。好的譯文應該是形式與內容的統(tǒng)一（3）能夠直譯盡量不意譯（4）翻譯的過程應該是先理解后表達。現就這一點作進一步論述。2 結合英文寫作特點對語言進行整體理解首先，英文段落的首句一般為topicsentence，然后展開說明。展開的寫法有多種，可分可總，可下定義，可同義重復，可以代詞復指等。利用這一技巧，先通讀全文，便能更好的理解文章的意思，把握段與段之間的關系，在翻譯時就能在上下文中確定詞義，從而進行準確的翻譯。其次，就具體而言：（1）對詞的理解可以從構思法、詞的搭配關系和詞匯之間的邏輯關系等方面入手（2）對句子的理解可以從句子的內在邏輯、成分之間的從屬關系和句子的語法組成等方面來實現（3）對于長句，可采用如下譯法：順譯法：按照原文順序譯逆續(xù)法：順序與原文順序相反重復法：重復前一個詞分譯法：一個句子分成幾個部分來翻譯括號法：在譯文后加括號進行解釋和說明等終合法：綜合運用上述各種方法3 表達正確理解原文后，還要通過適當的翻譯技巧用規(guī)范的漢語表達出來。這些技巧有：（1）增詞法。根據需要增加一些詞語，如名詞等（2）減詞法。根據漢語習慣，刪去一些詞（3）肯否表達法。原文為肯定句，譯成漢語是為增強修飾效果，可以譯為否定句。反之亦然（4）變換法，名詞譯成動詞或動詞轉譯成名詞等（5）分合法。一個長句可分成若干部分來譯，或者把原文的幾個簡單句用一個句子表達出來。（6）省略法：兩種語言由于存在差異，表達時不可能總是對等，經常可以省略一些詞和句子成分，如英語中的冠詞漢語里沒有，譯時可以省略4.應試中還應注意的問題（1）詞的指代問題要搞清楚（2）漢語知識的應用，如修辭等（3）部分否定和否定重點。部分否定，如notall;否定重點，如Idontteach becauseIhaveknowledge.（我并非因為有知識才去教書）。否定重點為 because,而不是teach.（4）虛擬語氣。這種語法現象有時并非只表示字面意思，它經常有感情色彩，譯時要注意。（5）要認真地通讀全文，根據上下文來確定詞義、句意，切不可斷章取義，望文生義.5.核對原文既要核對譯文是否準確、通順，還要注意關鍵詞的采分點。同時不要忘記全文結構的表達，這部分還有0.5分呢?？荚嚪g的復習與應試翻譯是一門藝術，同時又是一種實踐。它是對英語綜合能力的考查，沒有一定的英語基本功，要想在這部分得到高的分數是不可能的。但是，具有了一定的英語基礎，并不等于具有較高的翻譯能力。因此在學習和復習時掌握一些翻譯的基本常識和一些常用方法，針對考試中經常出現的一些語言現象，仔細分析一些翻譯實例，總結出一些規(guī)律性的東西，再加以必要的練習，對考生來說是非常必要的，而且在短時間內提高自己在該部分的得分是完全有可能的。試題與考生應試情況分析 通過考試試題的分析，我們發(fā)現英譯漢試題中的英文句子大致有以下三個特點：1. 句子較長，其中包括定語從句、狀語從句等從屬結構，致使句子結構復雜，意思不容易把握。 2. 句子雖然不長，但其中包含著較難理解的詞、詞組或短語，尤其是一些表示抽象意義的詞，另外，句子中往往含有比較復雜的語法現象。 3.考查的翻譯技巧主要包括：（1） 定語從句的譯法；（2） 被動語態(tài)的處理；（3） 長句的處理等等。 掌握這些規(guī)律為我們復習應考提供了很大的方便，考生可以根據自己的實際情況，多選擇一些與上述內容有關的文章，多做一些有關的練習，并結合這類文章的特點，在練習的過程中總結出一些規(guī)律性的東西。根據我們的經驗,考生在這部分表現出的主要障礙有以下幾個方面:1.缺乏基本的翻譯常識 作為公共英語學習者，由于客觀條件的限制，他們在英語學習的過程中很少或根本就沒有進行過系統(tǒng)的翻譯訓練，更缺乏對翻譯要求以及翻譯過程等一些常識性的東西基本的了解，因此在考前復習和考試過程中一籌莫展，無從下手。 2.對于英譯漢翻譯技巧知之甚少 任何事情都有其內在的規(guī)律，翻譯也不例外，作為考生，在備考時應掌握一些英譯漢過程中經常采用的翻譯技巧，注意體會英語和漢語之間的差異，同時要特別注意考試中經?？嫉囊恍┘记桑⒖偨Y其中的翻譯規(guī)律。 3.劃線的部分理解不透為了增加試題的難度，試題設計者往往選擇那些語法結構錯綜復雜的部分，這就要求我們在復習時，對于翻譯練習的句子，要仔細分析它們的語言結構，尤其是要注意那些具有分割定語從句等復雜語法現象的句子，在分析好句子結構并真正理解之后，再動手翻譯。 4.語表達不清，缺乏中文表達能力英譯漢是英語和漢語兩種語言之間的轉化，要求漢語準確完整，符合漢語的表達習慣，因此，考生在復習時也應該注意訓練自己的漢語表達能力。另外，考生在使用漢語表達時，還存在著用詞不準，違反自然科學常識的現象。 5.有些代詞翻譯得不夠明確 語言的使用總是發(fā)生在一定的語言環(huán)境之中, 在語言的使用過程中, 為了避免重復，往往需要使用一些代詞來代替前面所提到的人或物, 在考試的過程中, 考生應該仔細地閱讀全文, 找出劃線部分中英語代詞所指代的人或物, 并盡量明確地把它們翻譯出來。而且，還要把代詞翻成它（們）所代的名詞、短語。在英譯漢的過程中值得我們特別注意的幾點:（1） 漢語所要表達的是英語原文的內容, 即句子或文章的意義, 而不是句子結構；（2） 在翻譯過程中，英語原文的內容要準確而完整地重新表達出來，而不是將兩種語言結構進行簡單的轉換。因此，在做英譯漢的題目時，漢語所表達的意義應與原文保持一致，而漢語的句子結構只是為這一表達服務，而不應拘泥于原文。（3）應付英譯漢考試和一般的從事翻譯創(chuàng)作不同，因為各自有不同的衡量標準，翻譯創(chuàng)作的標準為 信、達、雅 , 而英譯漢考試則只要做到 忠實、通順 即可。要做到忠實原文，就應該掌握好適度原則，即要把原文的內容準確完整地表達出來，既不能改變和歪曲，也不能增加或刪減。漢譯英實例分析1、 這封信必須交給威爾遜本人。 The letter is to be handed to Doctor Wilson himself. (首先分析句子結構：它是一個含有被動語態(tài)的簡單句，另外要注意謂語動詞必須交給如何表達。) 2、主席建議這個問題下次再議。 The chairman proposed that the matter (should) be discussed at the next meeting. (首先分析句子：這是一個含有賓語從句的復合句。主句中用了propose一詞，因此賓語從句要用虛擬語氣。然后確定時態(tài)為過去將來時的被動語態(tài)。) 3、不言而喻，青年人的教育對于一個國家的未來是至關重要的。 It is self-evident that the education of the young is vital to the future of a country. (此句是一個形式主語從句，it is self-evident that 是一個常用的句型，另一個重要的短語是be vital to 對是重要的，關鍵的。) 4、千萬別說可能會被別人誤解的話。 Be sure not to say anything capable of being misunderstood (此句是一個祈使句的否定句。還有兩個重要的短語：be sure to do sth,一定做,be capable of donging sth：有能力做。) 5、我們彼此相識剛好一年。 It is /has been just a year since we got to know each other. (這句涉及到動詞的完成時，因為know是非延續(xù)性動詞，因此常用從句it issince 的句型，前面我們已經講過。) 6、一輛卡車駛進了積雪覆蓋的操場。 A truck pulled into the snow-covered playground of the school. 7、她剛收到兒子的來信，大大減輕了她的憂慮。 A letter from her son, which had just been delivered to her, greatly relieved her anxiety.(注意非限定性定語從句被動語態(tài)的使用。) 8、每月一定要留出足夠的錢，這樣你就能買下學期的教科書了。 Be sure to set aside enough money each month so that you can buy the textbooks for the next term.(此句是祈使句，而且含有結果狀語從句。) 9、盡管困難重重，我們仍決心執(zhí)行我們的計劃。 In spite of all the difficulties, we are determined to carry out our plan. (兩個重要的短語：in spite of 和be determined to do sth) 10、眾所周知，我們的許多問題至少部分是由于沒能交流思想而引起的。 It is well known that many of our problems are caused at least in part by failure to communicate.(it is well known句型的使用。)成人英語三級復習指導：近來流行詞匯的翻譯安居工程 housing project for low-income urban residents 信息化 information-based; informationization 智力密集型 concentration of brain power; knowledge-intensive 外資企業(yè) overseas-funded enterprises 下崗職工 laid-off workers 分流 reposition of redundant personnel 三角債 chain debts 素質教育 education for all-round development 豆腐渣工程 jerry-built projects 社會治安情況 law-and-order situation 民族國家 nation state 臺獨 independence of Taiwan 臺灣當局 Taiwan authorities 臺灣同胞 Taiwan compatriots 臺灣是中國領土不可分割的一部分。Taiwan is an inalienable part of the Chinese territory. 西部大開發(fā) Development of the West Regions 可持續(xù)性發(fā)展 sustainable development 風險投資 risk investment 通貨緊縮 deflation 擴大內需 to expand domestic demand 計算機輔助教學 computer-assisted instruction ( CAI ) 網絡空間 cyberspace 虛擬現實 virtual reality 網民 netizen ( net citizen ) 電腦犯罪 computer crime 電子商務 the e-business 網上購物 shopping online 應試教育 exam-oriented education 學生減負 to reduce study load大學英語閱讀難點80句翻譯1.

However， you do not have to wear a seat belt if you are reversing your vehicle； or you are making a local delivery or collection using a special vehicle； or if you have a valid medical certificate which excuses you from wearing it.4. Remember you may be taken to court for not doing so， and you may be fined if you cannot prove to the court that you have been excused from wearing it.5. Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why otherwise healthy farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason at a relatively early age， and how the process of ageing could he slowed down.6. With a team of colleagues at Tokyo National University， he set about measuring brain volumes of a thousand people of different ages and varying occupations.7. Computer technology enabled the researchers to obtain precise measurements of the volume of the front and side sections of the brain， which relate to intellect （智能） and emotion， and determine the human character.8. Contraction of front and side parts as cells die off was observed in some subjects in their thirties， but it was still not evident in some sixty and seventy-year-olds.9. The findings show in general terms that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns.10. White collar workers doing routine work in government offices are， however， as likely to have shrinking brains as the farm worker， bus driver and shop assistant.11. We know that you have a high opinion of the kind of learning taught in your colleges， and that the costs of living of our young men， while with you， would be very expensive to you.12. But you must know that different nations have different ways of looking at things， and you will therefore not be offended if our ideas of this kind of education happen not to be the same as yours.13. We are， however， not the less obliged by your kind offer， though we refuse to accept it； and， to show our grateful sense of it， if the gentlemen of Virginia will send us a dozen of their sons， we will take care of their education， teach them in all we know ， and make men of them.14. In what now seems like the prehistoric times of computer history， the earths postwar era， there was quite a wide-spread concern that computers would take over the world from man one day.15. Already today， less than forty years later， as computers are relieving us of more and more of the routine tasks in business and in our personal lives. We are faced with a less dramatic but also less foreseen problem.16. Obviously， there would be no point in investing in a computer if you had to check all its answers， but people should also rely on their own internal computers and check the machine when they have the feeling that something has gone wrong.17. Certainly Newton considered some theoretical aspects of it in his writings， but he was reluctant to go to sea to further his work.18. For most people the sea was remote， and with the exception of early intercontinental travellers or others who earned a living from the sea， there was little reason to ask many questions about it ， let alone to ask what lay beneath the surface.19. The first time that the question What is at the bottom of the oceans？ had to be answered with any commercial consequence was when the laying of a telegraph cable from Europe to America was proposed.20. At the early attempts， the cable failed and when it was taken out for repairs it was found to be covered in living growths， a fact which defied contemporary scientific opinion that there was no life in the deeper parts of the sea.21. For every course that he follows a student is given a grade， which is recorded， and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers.22.

The problem is， how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities of spelling？29. It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupils technical abilities in writing， but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay， which contained some beautiful expressions of the childs deep feelings.30. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors， but if his priorities had centred on the childs ideas， an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation to seek improvement.31. Given the nature of government and private employers， it seems most likely that discrimination by private employers would be greater.32.

We may be able to decide whether someone is white only by seeing if they have none of the features that would mark them clearly as a member of another race.39. Although signs of dishonesty in school ， business and government seem much more numerous in years than in the past， could it be that we are getting better at revealing such dishonesty？40. It is not quite a matter of disagreeing with the theory of independence， but of rejecting its implications： that the romances may be taken in any or no particular order， that they have no cumulative effect， and that they are as separate as the works of a modern novelist.41. His thesis works relatively well when applied to discrimination against Blacks in the United States， but his definition of racial prejudice as racially-based negative prejudgments against a group generally accepted as a race in any given region of ethnic competition， can be interpreted as also including hostility toward such ethnic groups as the Chinese in California and the Jews in medieval Europe.42. Gutman argues convincingly that the stability of the Black family encouraged the transmission of and so was crucial in sustaining the Black heritage of folklore， music， and religious expression from one generation to another， a heritage that slaves were continually fashioning out of their African and American experiences.43. Even the folk knowledge in social systems on which ordinary life is based in earning， spending， organizing， marrying， taking part in political activities， fighting and so on ， is not very dissimilar from the more sophisticated images of the social system derived from the social sciences， even though it is built upon the very imperfect samples of personal experience.44. There are several steps that can be taken， of which the chief one is to demand of all the organizations that exist with the declared objectives of safeguarding the interests of animals that they should declare clearly where they stand on violence towards people.45. It was possible to demonstrate by other methods refined structural differences among neuron types， however， proof was lacking that the quality of the impulse or its conduction was influenced by these differences， which seemed instead to influence the developmental patterning of the neural circuits.46. According to this theory， it is not the quality of the sensory nerve impulses that determines the diverse conscious sensations they produce， but rather the different areas of the brain into which they discharge ， and there is some evidence for this view.47. The result of attrition is that， where the areas of the whole leaves follow a normal distribution， a bimodal distribution is produced， one peak composed mainly of fragmented pieces， the other of the larger remains.48. The Bible does not tell us how the Roman census takers made out， and as regards our more immediate concern， the reliability of present day economic forecasting， there are considerable difference of opinion.49.

While a selection of necessary details is involved in both， the officer must remain neutral and clearly try to present a picture of the facts， while the artist usually begins with a preconceived message or attitude which is then transmitted through the use of carefully selected details of action described in words intended to provoke associations and emotional reactions in the reader.53. Articles in the popular press even criticize the Gross National Production （GNP） because it is not such a complete index of welfare， ignoring， on the one hand， that it was never intended to be， and suggesting， on the other， that with appropriate changes it could be converted into one.54. Other experiments revealed slight variations in the size， number， arrangement， and interconnection of the nerve cells， but as far as psychoneuaral correlations were concerned， the obvious similarities of these sensory fields to each other seemed much more remarkable than any of the minute differences.55.
