專八漢譯英十篇.docx

1暮色中，河灣里落滿云霞，與天際的顏色混合一起，分不清哪是流云哪是水灣。也就在這一幅絢爛的圖畫旁邊，在河灣之畔，一群羊正在低頭覓食。它們幾乎沒有一個顧得上抬起頭來，看一眼這美麗的黃昏。也許它們要抓緊時間，在即將回家的最后一刻再次咀嚼。這是黃河灘上的一幕。牧羊人不見了，他不知在何處歇息。只有這些美生靈自由自在地享受著這個黃昏。這兒水草肥美，讓它們長得肥滾滾的。如果走近了,你會發(fā)現(xiàn)它們潔白的牙齒，以及那豐富而單純的表情。2都市寸土千金，地價炒得越來越高，今后將更高。擁有一個小小花園的希望，對尋常之輩不啻是一種奢望，一種夢想。我想，其實誰都有一個小小花園，這便是我們的內(nèi)心世界。人的智力需要開發(fā)，人的內(nèi)心世界也是需要開發(fā)的。人和動物的區(qū)別，除了眾所周知的諸多方面，恐怕還在于人有內(nèi)心世界。心不過是人的一個重要臟器，而內(nèi)心世界是一種景觀，它是由外部世界不斷地作用于內(nèi)心漸漸形成的。每個人都無比關注自己及至親至愛之人心臟的漸損，以至于稍有微疾便惶惶不可終日。但并非每個人都關注自己及至親至愛之人的內(nèi)心世界的陰晴。 3手機刷新了人與人的關系。會議室門口通常貼著一條通告：請與會者關閉手機?？墒菚h室里的手機鈴聲仍然響成一片。我們都是普通人，并沒有多少重要的事情。盡管如此，我們也不會輕易關掉手機。打開手機象征我們與這個世界的聯(lián)系。手機反映出我們的社交饑渴癥。最為常見的是，一個人走著走著突然停下來，眼睛盯著手機屏幕發(fā)短信。他不在乎停在馬路中央還是廁所旁邊。4朋友關系的存續(xù)是以相互尊重為前提的，容不得半點強求、干涉和控制。朋友之間，情趣相投、脾氣對味則合、則交；反之，則離、則絕。朋友之間再熟悉、再親密，也不能隨便過頭、不恭不敬。不然，默契和平衡將被打破，友好關系將不復存在。每個人都希望擁有自己的私密空間，朋友之間過于隨便，就容易侵入這片禁區(qū)，從而引起沖突，造成隔閡。待友不敬，或者只是一件小事，卻可能已埋 下了破壞性的種子。維持朋友親密關系的最好辦法是往來有節(jié)，互不干涉。 5大自然對人的恩賜，無論貧富，一律平等。所以人們對于大自然，全都一致并深深地依賴著。尤其在鄉(xiāng)間，上千年來人們一直以不變的方式生活著。種植莊稼和葡萄，釀酒和飲酒，喂牛和擠奶，鋤草和載花；在周末去教堂祈禱和做禮拜，在節(jié)日到廣場拉琴、跳舞和唱歌；往日的田園依舊是今日的溫馨家園。這樣，每個地方都有自己的傳說，風俗也就衍傳了下來。 6得病以前，我受父母寵愛，在家中橫行霸道，一旦隔離，拘禁在花園山坡上一幢小房子里，我頓覺打入冷宮，十分郁郁不得志起來。 一個春天的傍晚，園中百花怒放，父母在園中設宴，一時賓客云集，笑語四溢。我在山坡的小屋里，悄悄掀起窗簾，窺見園中大千世界，一片繁華，自己的哥姐，堂表弟兄，也穿插其間，個個喜氣洋洋。一霎時，一陣被人擯棄，為世所遺的悲憤兜上心頭，禁不住痛哭起來。7在人際關系問題上我們不要太浪漫主義。人是很有趣的，往往在接觸一個人時首先看到的都是他或她的優(yōu)點。這一點頗像是在餐館里用餐的經(jīng)驗。開始吃頭盤或冷碟的時候，印象很好。吃頭兩個主菜時，也是贊不絕口。愈吃愈趨于冷靜，吃完了這頓宴席，缺點就都找出來了。于是轉喜為怒，轉贊美為責備挑剔，轉首肯為搖頭。這是因為，第一，開始吃的時候你正處于饑餓狀態(tài)，而餓了吃糠甜如蜜，飽了吃蜜也不甜。第二，你初到一個餐館，開始舉筷時有新鮮感，新蓋的茅房三天香，這也可以叫做“陌生化效應”吧。8一個人的生命究竟有多大意義，這有什么標準可以衡量嗎？提出一個絕對的標準當然很困難；但是，大體上看一個人對待生命的態(tài)度是否嚴肅認真，看他對待勞動、工作等等的態(tài)度如何，也就不難對這個人的存在意義做出適當?shù)墓烙嬃恕?古來一切有成就的人，都很嚴肅地對待自己的生命，當他活著一天，總要盡量多勞動、多工作、多學習，不肯虛度年華，不讓時間白白地浪費掉。我國歷代的勞動人民及大政治家、大思想家等等都莫不如此。9中國民族自古以來不把人看作高于一切，在哲學文藝方面的表現(xiàn)都反映出人在自然界中與萬物占著一個比例較為恰當?shù)牡匚?，而非絕對統(tǒng)治萬物的主宰。因此我們的苦悶，基本上比西方人為少為??；因為苦悶的強弱原是隨欲望與野心的大小而轉移的。農(nóng)業(yè)社會的人比工業(yè)社會的人享受差得多，因此欲望也小得多。況中國古代素來以不滯于物，不為無役為最主要的人生哲學。并非我們沒有守財奴，但比起莫利哀與巴爾扎克筆下的守財奴與野心家來，就小巫見大巫了。中國民族多數(shù)是性情中正平和、淡泊、樸實，比西方人容易滿足。10生活就像一杯紅酒，熱愛生活的人會從其中品出無窮無盡的美妙。將它我在手中仔細觀察，它的暗紅色中有血的感覺，那正是生命的痕跡。抿一口留在口中回味，它的甘甜中有一絲苦澀，如人生一般復雜迷離。喝一口下肚，余香沁人心脾，讓人終生受益。 紅酒越陳越美味，生活越豐富越美好。當人生走向晚年，就如一瓶待開封的好酒，其色彩是沉靜的，味道中充滿慷慨與智慧。 1參考譯文：Beside this picture with profusions of colors, a group of sheep are lowing their heads, eating by the river bank. Hardly none of them would spare some time to raise their eyes to have a glance at the beautiful dusk. They are, perhaps, taking use of every minute to enjoy their last chew before being driven home. This is a picture of the Yellow River bank, in which the shepherd disappears, and no one knows where he is resting himself. Only the sheep, however, as free creatures, are joyfully appreciating the dusk. The exuberant water plants have untried the sheep, making them grow as fat as balls. When approaching near, you would find their lily-white teeth and a variety of innocent facial impressions. 2參考譯文：In fact, I think everyone has a small garden and that is our inner world. Peoples intelligence needs to be developed, so does the inner world. The difference between people and animals, in addition to the many well-known, is also in the inner world. The heart is an important organ; however, the inner world is a landscape. It gradually took shape under the constant influence of the outside world on the heart. Everyone is so concerned about the health of the hearts of their loved ones as well as his that a slight disease would cause great anxiety. But not everyone is concerned about the inner world of themselves and their loved ones. 3 參考譯文：Cell phone has altered human relations. There is usually a note on the door of conference room, which reads close your handset. However, the rings are still resounding in the room. We are all common people and has few urgencies to do. Still, we are reluctant to turn off the phone. Cell phone symbolizes our connection with the world and reflects our thirst for socialization. We are familiar with the scene when a person stops his steps to edit short messages with eyes glued at his phone, disregard of his location, whether in road center or beside restroom. 4參考譯文： Friends tend to become more intimated if they have the same interests and temper, they can get along well and keep contacting; otherwise they will separate and end the relationship. Friends who are more familiar and closer can not be too casual and show no respect. Otherwise the harmony and balance will be broken, and the friendship will also be nonexistent any more. Everyone hopes to have his own private space, and if too casual among friends, it is easy to invade this piece of restricted areas, which will lead to the conflict, resulting in alienation. It may be a small matter to be rude to friends; however, it is likely to plant the devastating seeds. The best way to keep the close relationship between friends is to keep contacts with restraint, and do not bother each other.5參考譯文：The bounty of nature is equal to everyone, rich or poor, and therefore all men are strongly attached to her. This is particularly true in the rural areas, where people have kept the same lifestyle for a millennium or so. They plant crops and grapevines, brew wine to drink, feed cows to milk, and weed gardens to grow flowers. They go to church at weekends, and they meet in the square on holidays, playing the violin, singing and dancing. The age-old land remains the same as their family hearth. Each place boasts its folklore and thereby social customs go down. 6 參考譯文：Before I fell ill, I had been the bully under our roofs (in my family) owing to my doting parents. Feeling like being deposed into a cold palace, I began to taste the bitterness of depression and frustration immediately after I was segregated and confined in a small house on a hillside in our garden. On a spring evening, my parents gave a banquet in the garden where a profusion of flowers were in full bloom. In no time, crowd of their guests collected and laughter was heard all over there. I, without being noticed, lifted the curtain in my small room, only to spy the bustle of a kaleidoscopic world down in the garden, and my elder sisters, brothers and cousins, each full of the joys of spring, were shuttling among the guests/helping treat(host) the guests . Quickly enough, I was thrown into a fist of sorrowful anger at being forgotten and discarded by the rest and could not help crying my heart out.7參考譯文：We should not be too romantic in interpersonal relations. Human beings are interesting in that they tend to first see good in a new acquaintance. This is like dining in a restaurant. You will be not only favorably impressed with the first two courses. However, the more you have, the more sober you become until the dinner ends up with all the flaws exposed. Consequently, your joy would give way to anger; your praises to criticism or even fault-finding; and your nodding in agreement to shaking the head. What accounts for all this is, in the first place, you are hungry when you start to eat. As the saying goes,“Hunger is the best sauce”, and vice versa.8參考譯文：What is the significance of life? Is there any criterion for its measurement? Difficult as it is to advance an absolute one, it will not be so to judge the very meaning of ones existence generally from whether he is serious about life and what his attitudes are towards work and life. Throughout the ages, all people of accomplishment take their lives seriously. As long as they are alive, they would rather devote themselves to more work and study than let a single minute slip by in vain. And the same is true of the common laborers as well as the great statesmen and thinkers in our country.9參考譯文：Since ancient times the Chinese nationalities have never considered human beings to be superior to every other species. As is reflected in Chinese philosophy, literature and art, in the natural world human beings occupy a positioning proportion to all other creatures and the former do not absolutely dominate the latter. Therefore, generally speaking, we Chinese feel depressed less often and less severely than people in the west, for the intensity of ones depression literally changes along with the magnitude of ones desire and ambition. As people in an agricultural society enjoy much fewer comforts than those in an industrial society, they have fewer desires or wishes. Besides, ancient Chinese always took it as their most fundamental philosophy of life that one should not merely be confined to material pursuits, or be kept in bondage by material things. It is quite true that there are misers in China. But Chinese misers prove less miserly and less ambitious when they are compared with those misers and careerists described by Moliai and Balzac. Being very mild-tempered, most of th
