2017年6月英語六級翻譯模擬練習題(一)：瑜伽

　　瑜伽有著六千多年的歷史，起源于印度。古代的瑜伽信徒發展了瑜伽體系，他們深信通過運動身體和調控呼吸完全可以控制心智和情感(control one’s mind and emotions)，保持身體長久的健康。瑜伽姿勢大部分來源于模仿動物的姿態，達到鍛煉身心的效果。瑜伽不同于體操和舞蹈，也不同于一般的有氧練習。只有當呼吸、意識和姿勢結合成一體(breathing，mind and posture get into one)時，才是真正的瑜伽練習。可以說，瑜伽不僅僅是一種運動方式.也是一種生活態度。

　　Yoga is originated in India with more than 6,000 years of history. Ancient yoga practitioners developed yoga system. They firmly believed that through the movement of one's body and control of one's breathing, one can completely control one's mind and emotions,so as to keep long-term health.Most yoga postures are imitations of animal postures in order to exercise one's physical and mental power.Yoga is unlike gymnastics, dance,or common aerobic exercise.Only at the time when one's breathing, mind and posture get into one,one is in the condition of yoga exercise. So we can say that yoga is not just a sport, but also an attitude to life.

　　2017年6月英語六級翻譯模擬練習題(二)：科舉制

　　請將下面這段話翻譯成英文：

　　自隋朝起,封建政府開始從科舉考試(imperial examination)合格的應試者中選拔官員。參加科舉考試的人有兩種:一種由學館選送的學生構成,叫做生徒 (shengtu);另一種叫做鄉貢(xianggong),由縣試合格者構成。唐朝的科舉考試一般由禮部(Ministry of Rites)主持。考生考取后,再經吏部(Ministry ofPersonnel)復試,根據成績授予相應的官職。科舉制度一直被多朝沿用,直到中國最后一個封建王朝—清朝。然而,明清時期,科舉制度演變成嚴格、呆板的制度,阻礙了中國考試制度的現代化和科學化發展。

　　參考翻譯

　　Since the Sui Dynasty,the feudal government started to select officials from the qualifiedcandidates in the imperial examinations.There were two kinds of people taking theimperial examination.One was comprised of students chosen by academies,who werecalled shengtu;the other kind,called xianggong,was made up of those who had passedthe examinations held by counties.The imperial examination in the Tang Dynasty wasusually held by the Ministry of Rites.Those who passed the examination would be re-examined by the Ministry of Personnel and be conferred with relevant official positionsaccording to their examination results.The imperial examination system was usedthroughout many dynasties until China's last imperial dynasty,the Qing Dynasty.However,during the Ming and Qing Dynasties,the imperial examination system became a strict andrigid institution which stopped China from adopting modern and scientific methods.

　　翻譯詳解

　　1.選拔官員:可譯為select officials。

　　2.學館:即古代的學校,此處的“學校”可以推薦當官,可見譯為school不合適, 能夠推薦當官的應該是高等學府,故譯為academy。

　　3.由…構成:可用詞組be comprised of來表達,還可以用詞組consist of,be made up of。

　　4.生徒:中國古代特有名詞,英語中沒有對應的詞,故可用漢語拼音譯為shengtu。后面的“鄉貢”也同理,譯為xianggong。

　　5.縣試:即由縣里組織的考試,故可譯為examinations held by counties。

　　6.復試:可以用re-examine表達。

　　7.呆板的:可譯為rigid。

　　8.阻礙了中國考試制度的現代化和科學化發展:可理解為“阻礙了中國采用現代化和科學的方法”,故可譯為定語從句which stopped China from adopting modern and scientific methods。
