2017年英語六級翻譯模擬題(一)：天壇

　　請將下面這段話翻譯成英文：

　　故宮東南方幾公里處，有一座巨大的祭天神廟，這就是天壇(the Temple of Heaven)。祭天儀式起源于周朝，自漢代以來，歷朝歷代的帝王都對此極為重視。明永樂(the reignof Emperor Yongle in the Ming Dynasty)以后，每年帝王們都要來天壇舉行祭天和祈谷的儀式。天壇建筑的主要設(shè)計(jì)思想就是要突出天空的遼闊高遠(yuǎn)，以表現(xiàn)“天”的至髙無上。天壇的建筑在一條中軸線(central axis)上，最南的圍墻呈方形，象征地，最北的圍墻呈半圓形，象征天，這種設(shè)計(jì)來自遠(yuǎn)古“天圓地方”的思想。

　　2017年英語六級翻譯模擬題(三)：黃河

　　請將下面這段話翻譯成英文：

　　黃河(the Yellow River)為中國第二大長河，也是世界著名的長河之一。黃河流經(jīng)九個省區(qū)，在中國北方蜿蜒流動。從髙空俯瞰，它非常像一個巨大的“幾”字，又隱約像是我們民族那獨(dú)一無二的圖騰(totem)—龍。由于河流中段流經(jīng)中國黃土高原(Loess Plateau)地區(qū)，因此夾帶了大世的泥沙(sediment),所以它也被認(rèn)為是世界上含沙量最多的河流。在中國歷史上，黃河給人類文明帶來很大的影響，是中華民族最主要的發(fā)祥地之一，因此中國人稱其為“母親河”。

　　參考翻譯:

　　The Yellow River, the second longest river in China, is one of the most famous long rivers in the world. The Yellow River flows through nine provinces,meandering in northern China.

Since the middle part of the river flows through the Loess Plateauin China, a lot of sediment is carried away. Therefore, it is also considered as the river with the most sediment in the world.

　　1.蒙古族牧民的生活方式很有特色:作為段落的第一句，翻譯時一定要恰當(dāng)處理。這里譯者很靈活地把“很有特色”處理為be distinctive,表示跟其他民族不同，特色鮮明;另外，"牧民”還可以譯為shepherds。
