At present, preliminary effects havebeen achieved in some cities.

　　四級英語翻譯專項(xiàng)練習(xí)講解：

　　1.第1句可直譯為 For the past decade, China's realestate developed rapidly，但如果以時(shí)間“過去十年”作為句子主語，套用句型time + see/witness + sth.則表達(dá)更加生動(dòng)形象。此時(shí)see/witness表“經(jīng)歷，以……為特點(diǎn)”之義。本句可譯為The past decade has witnessed...。

　　2.第2句中的“買房卻不是一件容易的事情”可譯為buying ahouse is not an easy thing，但套用 it is + a. + to dosth.句型來翻譯“做某事是怎么樣的”會(huì)更符合英文的表達(dá)習(xí)慣，故該句宜譯作it is quite difficult for manypeople to buy a house。

　　3.在第4句中，“鑒于此種情況”既可直譯為In view of the situation，也可譯為Given this situation，或是根據(jù)上下文轉(zhuǎn)譯為For this reason。“來抑制房價(jià)球快增長目的，故用不定式短語作狀語，譯作to preventthe housing price from rising too fast;“包括整頓......”起補(bǔ)充說明的作用，可譯為 includingregulating...。

　　4.在翻譯最后一句時(shí)，應(yīng)轉(zhuǎn)換主語為“初步成效”，用被動(dòng)語態(tài)譯出更符合英文表達(dá)習(xí)慣，譯作preliminaryeffects have been achieved...。狀語“在部分城市”表達(dá)為in some cities，置于句末。

　　四級英語翻譯專項(xiàng)練習(xí)原文2：

　　隨著生活水平的提高，保健品(health care products)日益受到中國人的喜愛。人們花費(fèi)大量金錢來購買能量飲料、維生素藥片和美容飲品。這些保健品宣稱含有抗氧化物(antioxidants)，能使人增強(qiáng)體質(zhì)、延緩衰老。 然而，最近有研究表明抗氧化物可能只是一個(gè)醫(yī)學(xué)童話。幾乎沒有什么數(shù)據(jù)可以證明抗氧化物可以預(yù)防疾病。 專家認(rèn)為，要打抗氧化作用(oxidative stress)，就要多運(yùn)動(dòng)，多吃水果和蔬菜。

　　四級英語翻譯專項(xiàng)練習(xí)翻譯：

　　Chinese people tend to welcome health careproducts as the living standards improve. Theywould spend quite a large sum of money buyingenergy drinks, vitamin pills and beauty drinks. Thesehealth care products claim that they contain theantioxidants which could build bodies and slow aging.However, recent studies show that antioxidants may be just a medical fairy tale. There is littledata supporting the use of antioxidants to protect against diseases. Experts say that to fightoxidative stress, people need to do more exercise and eat more fruits and vegetables.

　　四級英語翻譯專項(xiàng)練習(xí)講解：

　　1.第1句中，“隨著生活水平的提高”是狀語，可語為狀語從句as the living standards improve，也可譯為介詞短語with the improvement of the living standards;“保健品H益受到中國人的喜愛”是句中的主體，翻譯時(shí)，可沿用漢語句中的表達(dá)結(jié)構(gòu)，譯為health care products become increasingly popular with Chinese people，也可將主語轉(zhuǎn)換為中國人(Chinese people)，將保健品轉(zhuǎn)換為賓語，譯為Chinese people tend to welcome health care products。

　　2.第2句中的謂賓結(jié)構(gòu)“花費(fèi)大量金錢來購買……”可套用英講常用表達(dá)spend time/money (in) doing sth.，譯為spend quite a large sum of money (in) buying。

　　3.第3句“這些保健品宜稱古有抗氧化物，能使人......”中包含3個(gè)動(dòng)詞，如果逐字對譯為These health care products claim that they contain... and make people...則稍顯生硬。分析該句可知，“能使人增強(qiáng)體質(zhì)、延緩衰老”說的是抗氧化物(antioxidante)的作用，故在翻譯時(shí)，可將其轉(zhuǎn)譯成抗氧化物的定語從句。

　　4.第5句的前半部分的“幾乎沒有什么數(shù)椐”可處理成There be結(jié)構(gòu)，“幾乎沒有”用little表達(dá);可以證明抗氧化物可以預(yù)防疾病”是補(bǔ)充說明“數(shù)椐”的情況，可用分詞短語supporting...表達(dá)，其中的“抗氧化物可以......”說的是抗氧化物的作用，譯作名詞短語the use of antioxidants to...簡潔明了，“可以預(yù)防疾病”表目的，用不定式短語to protect against diseases 來表達(dá)。
