英語六級翻譯練習題附譯文講解
六級翻譯練習題:打車難
六級翻譯講解:
1.打車難:可譯為it's hard to take a taxi,作為problem的同位語,意義表達清楚自然。
2.增加了對出租車的需求:可譯為make the demand for taxi rise。
3.為避免堵車影響收入:可靈活地譯為to guarantee personal income。采用逆向譯法,上下文反復出現“堵車”這個詞,所以可以省略。
4.出租車行業不規范,拒載行為屢屢發生:這里是說明原因,為了句式簡明,可以處理為動名詞和獨立主格的形式,直接充當句子主語。
5.人為因素:可譯為human factor。
六級翻譯參考譯文:
It has been a common problem in large city residents' life that it's hard to take a taxi. The increase of urban population and diversification of social activities make the demand for taxi rise. As the traffic jam becomes worse in cities,to guarantee personal income, many taxi drivers refuse to drive on busy roads and main urban areas, which makes it difficult for many citizens to take a taxi near some transportation junctions, commercial centers and hospitals. City construction affects the efficiency of taxi. Being not standard in the taxi industry and taxi drivers' often refusing to take passengers are the human factors that make it difficult to take a taxi.
六級翻譯練習題:助人為樂
助人為樂,是中華民族優良傳統之一。通過“助人”,既向別人提供了幫助,又體現了一種自尊。幫助他人要擯棄私心雜念,不能處處為個人利益著想。遇事要多替別人考慮,主動伸手幫助那些需要幫助的人。做到助人為樂,要偷快面對生活,不能自尋煩惱。在幫助別人的同時,自己收獲快樂,享受生活的樂趣。做到助人為樂,要積極行動起來,不能只說不做。要腳踏實地(be down-to-earth),熱情周到地為他人服務,哪怕是簡單的小事,也要從一點一滴做起。
六級翻譯講解:
1.體現了一種自尊:可譯為express one kind of self-respect。
2.擯棄私心雜念:“擯棄”可譯為give up,也可用abandon或get rid of表達。“私心雜念”可理解為“自私”,因此可簡單譯為selfishness。
3.主動伸手幫助那些需要幫助的人:可譯為initiatively give a hand to those that need help。
4.自尋煩惱:可譯為ask for trouble。ask for有“自找”的意思。
