英語(yǔ)四級(jí)翻譯練習(xí)題(一)：滿月

　　參考譯文：

　　In China, the One-Month-Old Feast of a baby is thefirst significant ceremony in his life. On the daywhen a baby is one month old, the families of thebaby invite their relatives and friends to celebratethe occasion together. Usually, the baby wears a doghat and tiger shoes, which indicates that the babywill be lucky for the whole life. The ceremony of One-Year-Old Catch on the first of the baby isalso of great characteristics. The families of the baby will lay out many things such as books,pens, ink, paper, money, foods, and toys for the baby to choose at will. According to thearticles the baby picks up, the families will make some predictions about his potential interestsand future career.

　　1.在第2句中，狀語(yǔ)“孩子滿月那天”中的“孩子滿月”可處理為定語(yǔ)從句，整個(gè)狀語(yǔ)表達(dá)為On the day when a baby isone month old;主語(yǔ)“家人”指的是“孩子的家人”，故應(yīng)采取增譯法，將其譯為過(guò) the baby;“—起慶祝”的后面省略了“(孩子)滿月”，故翻譯時(shí)也要增譯，但這里不必拖沓啰嗦地譯成to celebrate that the baby is one month old，直接表達(dá)為 celebrate the occasion 更簡(jiǎn)潔明了。

　　2.第3句中的“象征著孩子能幸運(yùn)一生”可處理成非限制性定語(yǔ)從句which symbolizes/indicates that thebaby will be lucky for the whole life，或處理成分詞短語(yǔ)symbolizing/indicating the baby's beinglucky for the whole life，作句中的伴隨狀語(yǔ)。

　　3.第4句中的定語(yǔ)“孩子周歲那天的”可處理為后置的介詞短語(yǔ)on the first birthday of the baby，修飾中心詞“抓周儀式”。

　　4.倒數(shù)第2句中的“擺上書、筆、墨、紙、錢幣、食物、玩具等物品”，如果直譯為lay out books...，toysand other things會(huì)使譯文顯得冗長(zhǎng)，宜用中心詞“物品”作賓語(yǔ)，具體物品名稱則作補(bǔ)充說(shuō)明，譯為lay outmany things such as books, ...，and toys，使表達(dá)更為清晰順暢。

　　5.最后一句“根據(jù)……預(yù)測(cè)……”是一個(gè)無(wú)主語(yǔ)句，但根據(jù)上下文可知，此處“預(yù)測(cè)”的施動(dòng)者是孩子的家人，故翻譯時(shí)應(yīng)增譯主語(yǔ)the families。“根據(jù)......東西”可套用短語(yǔ)According to...來(lái)表達(dá);其中“東西”的定語(yǔ)“孩子抓的”可后置，用定語(yǔ)從句picks up來(lái)表達(dá)。“興趣愛好”的定語(yǔ)“孩子可能存在的”可譯為 the baby'spotential，因前半句已有baby—詞，為避免重復(fù)，the baby's可用物主代詞his來(lái)代替。

　　英語(yǔ)四級(jí)翻譯練習(xí)題(三)：慈禧

　　與后宮(the imperial harem)其他許多女人不同，慈禧(Empress Dowager Cixi) 因讀寫漢字的能力而受重視。這給她提供了充足的機(jī)會(huì)來(lái)協(xié)助生病的皇帝處理國(guó)家日常事務(wù)。咸豐帝(Xianfeng Emperor)曾多次讓慈禧讀奏折(palace memorials) 給他聽，并讓她按照他的意愿在奏折上寫批復(fù)。因此，慈禧對(duì)國(guó)家大事十分熟悉，并且從生病的皇帝那兒學(xué)會(huì)了管理國(guó)家的藝術(shù)。國(guó)內(nèi)外的歷史學(xué)家普遍都把她描述成王朝沒(méi)落的罪人(sinner)。
