大学英语六级改革适用(段落翻译)模拟试卷356
翻译-汉译英
1. 受到中国经济内部动力(dynamics)和外来压力的共同影响,人民币近几年来不断升值(appreciate)。内部影响主要有中国物价水平、通货膨胀状况、经济增长状况以及利率水平,外部影响主要来自发达国家施加的压力,尤其是日本和美国。人民币升值会增加人民币的购买力,扩大国内消费者对进口产品的需求,还可以减轻进口能源和原料的成本负担。但它会影响国内金融市场的稳定,使出口产品的成本上升,从而降低中国产品在国际市场上的竞争力。
Influenced jointly by internal dynamics of Chinese economy and external pressures, RMB has appreciated constantly in recent years. The internal influences mainly include China’s price level, the situations of inflation and economic growth, as well as interest rate level, while the external influences mainly come from the pressures exerted by developed countries, Japan and America in particular. The appreciation of RMB will not only increase its purchasing power and expand domestic consumers’ demands for imported goods, but also alleviate the cost burden of imported energies and raw materials. However, it may affect the stability of the domestic financial market and raise the cost of exported products, which would reduce the competitive power of Chinese products in the global market.
解析:1.第一句“人民币近几年来不断升值”,时态要采用现在完成时,表示已经发生并且还在持续。“受到……的共同影响”可采用过去分词作状语,译为influenced jointly by…。
2.第二句由两部分组成,第一部分叙述内部影响,第二部分叙述外部影响,可用while进行连接,表示对比。修饰“压力”的定语“来自发达国家施加的”较长,可后置用过去分词exerted by developed countries表达,也可译为定语从句which are exerted by…。
3.在“人民币升值会增加……能源和原料的成本负担”中,主语为“人民币升值”,谓语动词有三个:“增加”、“扩大”和“减轻”,可以用not only…but also...衔接,体现隐含的递进关系。
4.最后一句由三个分句组成,其中“从而降低……”可以理解成前面内容造成的结果,因此在翻译时可以将此层逻辑关系表达出来,用which引导的非限制性定语从句补充说明结果。
2. “西部大开发”(Western Development)是中国促进经济发展的一项重要政策。自从实行改革开放的政策以来,尤其是中国东南沿海城市的经济特区(special economic zone)设立以来,中国经济发展迅速。然而,由于位置偏远、交通落后、与其他地区交流不足,中国西部地区在经济、文化、人民生活水平等方面不够发达。为了解决地区间发展的不平衡,中国开展了“西部大开发”运动,在引进人才和投资等方面给予西部地区优惠(preferential)政策。目前“西部大开发”的成就显著,东西部地区的差距正逐渐缩小。
Western Development is an important policy of China aiming at promoting economic development. Since China adopted the reform and opening-up policy, and especially since the special economic zones were set up in the coastal cities in southeast China, the Chinese economy has grown rapidly. However, owing to its remote location, backward transportation, and insufficient exchange with other regions, western China is less developed in its economy, culture and people’s living standard. In order to tackle the unbalanced development among regions, China has launched the campaign of Western Development, offering preferential policies to the west in many aspects such as introduction of talents and investment. Now the campaign of Western Development has made remarkable achievements, gradually narrowing the gap between the east and the west.
解析:1.第一句中的定语“促进经济发展的”较长,故将其处理为后置定语,修饰“重要政策”,翻译时,可译为现在分词短语或定语从句,此外“促进经济发展”是该项政策的目的,因此宜增译短语aim at,译作aiming atpromoting economic development或which aims at…。
2.第二句“自从……以来,尤其是……”为并列的两个分句,因此可考虑将其翻译为两个由since引导的时间状语从句Since China adopted...,and especially since the special economic zones were…,注意since引导的从句要用一般过去时,主句使用现在完成时。
3.翻译第三句的“由于……中国西部地区……”时,可使用owing to…结构表达“由于……”,而“位置偏远、交通落后、与其他地区交流不足”为三个并列的原因,可用并列结构进行直译。“在……方面不够发达”可译作be less developed in…。
4.倒数第二句的“为了解决地区间发展的不平衡”表目的,故将其译作目的状语in order to…。后两个分句可直译为and连接的并列句,但这样处理句子结构松散,稍显平淡,不如选“中国开展了……运动”作为主句,将“在引进人才和投资等方面给予……”处理为现在分词短语offering preferential policies...来得地道和有层次感。
3. 五四运动(the May Fourth Movement)是1919年5月4日发生的一场反帝反封建(anti—imperialist,anti-feudal)的政治文化运动。这次
