汉英翻译考研辅导

辅导范围 • 翻译是英语专业考研必考项目。 • 基础英语翻译部分 • 翻译专业 • 学术型：理论+实践 • 实践型：翻译硕士专业学位（MTI）研究生入学考试考试大纲 • 万变不离其宗：翻译能力，语言基础

备考基本方法 • 1、知己知彼，百战不殆结合报考院校的专业试题， • 研究出题模式， • 分析题材难度，文学题材？实用题材？文言文？ • 制定备考计划。

汉英翻译的思考 • 一、积累与翻译（Input） • 二、写作与翻译（Output） • 练笔

一、积累与翻译（Input） • 1.why？ • 汝果欲学译，功夫在译外。基本功、知识面 • … and in terms of translational competence we must also face the fact that even the best translator will occasionally learn something new about both source and target languages and cultures. Life is continuous education.(Dollerup,2007:14) • 汉英翻译的特殊性

基本功 • 我今天要力言的是，翻译并不是学了翻译就会的。有很多东西要学，要知道。如果不在基本功上下功夫，如中西书读得多，读得通，文笔好，仅仅研究译学，恐怕此路不通。走也走不了多远。译当然可以译，乱译也行，不过这种译文若是给名家看到，里面的毛病就很多了。也永远不能译得出人头地。译文要叫别人看了心悦诚服，拿来欣赏，不容易。（思果，2002：1-5）

More likely to do something, or to make something more likely to happen.2>to talk or behave in a way that gives someone confidence to do something.

其中，故宫、长城、周口店北京猿人遗址、颐和园、天坛和明十三陵已被联合国教科文组织列为世界文化遗产。其中，故宫、长城、周口店北京猿人遗址、颐和园、天坛和明十三陵已被联合国教科文组织列为世界文化遗产。 • Among these, the Imperial Palace, the Great Wall, Peking Man Site at Zhoukoudian, the Summer Palace, the Temple of Heaven and the Ming Tombs are listed as the UNESCO World Cultural Heritages. • Among these, the Forbidden Palace, the Great Wall, Peking Man Site at Zhoukoudian, the Summer Palace, the Temple of Heaven and the Ming Tombs are inscribed by UNESCO on the World Cultural Heritages.

3. How?（养成习惯） • The carnage began on Tuesday after the Shanghai stock market fell nine percent.

1）思考深究的习惯：速度#质量；浮躁#静心 • 全球城市適合居住性排名與概述 • （Liveability Ranking and Overview） • 联合国人居署 • United Nations Human Settlements Program，UN-HABITAT——原联合国人居中心 • “联合国人居奖” • UN Habitat Scroll of Honor Award • 日照，威海 • The 2009 Scroll of Honour Award Winners • http://www.unhabitat.org/content.asp?typeid=19&catid=588&cid=7306

二、写作与翻译（Output） • 我得顺便补充一句，有些学者中外文都好，可是不懂翻译，他们不能翻译，说的关于翻译的话未必中肯。不用心苦译几十上百万字，一面译，一面研究，一面观察比较，即使中外文都好，也无济于事。不过翻译还可以学，若是中外文根底差，没有写作能力，即使译几十年，也译不好。无药可救。有志做第一流译家的人，不能不从根本下手。（思果，2002：1-5）

And here is my additional remark regarding translators. There are some scholars who are competent in both Chinese and a foreign language, yet who are not competent in doing translation simply because they do not understand what translation really means and their remarks on translation is always off the mark. A translator, despite his/her good command of both languages, can make little progress without translating conscientiously a million words, “conscientiously ” in the sense that he/she, while translating, should shrewdly detect and carefully compare the phenomena between and behind the two languages. It is not wrong to say that one can learn how to translate. But such a learning process could turn out to be a failure if the learner suffers a very poor foundation of both languages, and unable to write anything as a result. Even if this translation learner continues to translate for decades, the quality of his translation would, I am afraid, still remain disappointingly low. Therefore, anyone who is determined to become a first class translator has to lay a solid foundation linguistically and otherwise to begin with.

廉洁的遗嘱 • 1925年2月24日，国父孙中山病危时，留下一段《家事遗嘱》：“余因尽瘁国事，不治家产。其所遗之书籍、衣物、住宅等均付吾妻宋庆龄，以为纪念。余之儿女已长成能自立，望各自爱,以继余志。此嘱。” • 中山先生艰苦奋斗40年，功勋卓然。但终生廉洁，从未为自己和子女亲属置办过田地遗产。他任过国家临时大总统，官可谓高矣，然而从不追求俸禄。临终留下的遗物只有生前的一些衣物，2000多本书籍杂志，还有一所旅居加拿大的华侨为他募捐的住宅。

A Clean Will • Dr. Sun Yat-sen, the founding father of the Republic of China, made the following will regarding his family affairs on February 24, 1924, as he was dying of illness: “Dedicated as I have been to the national affairs, it is understandable that I have been unable to build up my family properties. I hereby leave my books, clothes as well as my house to my wife, Soong Chingling as mementos. As for my children, who are all grown-ups and should be able to support themselves, I could only wish that they conduct themselves well so as to carry out my unfinished endeavor.” • 1925年2月24日，国父孙中山病危时，留下一段《家事遗嘱》：“余因尽瘁国事，不治家产。其所遗之书籍、衣物、住宅等均付吾妻宋庆龄，以为纪念。余之儿女已长成能自立，望各自爱,以继余志。此嘱。”

For 40 years, Dr. Sun Yat-sen worked and struggled for the thriving of the Chinese nation. Despite the fact that his revolutionary exploits were monumental, he lived a life clean and honest until his death. Never had he purchased any land or property either for himself or for any of his family members. It is true that he once served as the Republic of China’s provisional president. In fact, as head of state, he had never sought nor enjoyed a high emolument. It is small wonder that what he left behind upon his death were nothing except some 2,000 books and magazines, plus a residence which had been collectively contributed to him by the Chinese expatriates in Canada. • 中山先生艰苦奋斗40年，功勋卓然。但终生廉洁，从未为自己和子女亲属置办过田地遗产。他任过国家临时大总统，官可谓高矣，然而从不追求俸禄。临终留下的遗物只有生前的一些衣物，2000多本书籍杂志，还有一所旅居加拿大的华侨为他募捐的住宅。

3、词语选择 • 具体与抽象 • 捕捉具体含义，用词具体，忌抽象、空洞或堆砌大词。 • (原文风格一致。) • 廉洁：clean， upright，pure : （testament，will） • free from moral corruption or sinister connections of any kind <a candidate with a record>; : free from violations <a driving record> • Emolument • the returns arising from office or employment usually in the form of compensation or perquisites • Overseas Chinese Daily News 《华侨日报》 • expatriate staff离国服务的工作人员expatriate labour出国劳工,外籍工人 • 不治家产，以继余志 • build up my family properties • carry out my unfinished endeavor • 创造更多的就业机会 • Create more jobs • Create more employment opportunities

Bequeath • V. to give or leave by will • Bequest= • Legacy : a gift by will esp. of money or other personal property • Heritage/inheritance遗产,世袭财产

4、语法、语感 • 保证语法正确 • pure will（冠词，大小写） • The People’s Republic of China • 面对严重的人口问题，从二十世纪七十年代开始，中国实行计划生育，控制人口增长。 • Since 1970s, confronted with the aggravating population problem, china initiated family planning to control the population growth. • To reduce the increasing population pressure, China has implemented a family planning policy since the 1970s to control population growth. • 语法正确#好译文 • Will 与内容的距离，远，saying

建立公正合理的国际政治经济新秩序。各国政治上应相互尊重，共同协商，而不应把自己的意志强加于人；经济上应相互促进，共同发展，而不应造成贫富悬殊；文化上应相互借鉴，共同繁荣，而不应排除其他民族的文化；安全上应相互信任，共同维护，树立互信、互利、平等和协作的新安全观，通过对话和合作解决争端，而不应诉诸武力或以武力相威胁。反对各种形式的霸权主义和强权政治。中国永远不称霸，永远不搞扩张。建立公正合理的国际政治经济新秩序。各国政治上应相互尊重，共同协商，而不应把自己的意志强加于人；经济上应相互促进，共同发展，而不应造成贫富悬殊；文化上应相互借鉴，共同繁荣，而不应排除其他民族的文化；安全上应相互信任，共同维护，树立互信、互利、平等和协作的新安全观，通过对话和合作解决争端，而不应诉诸武力或以武力相威胁。反对各种形式的霸权主义和强权政治。中国永远不称霸，永远不搞扩张。

Create a just and rational international political and economic order. • Politically, all countries should observe mutual respect and build consensus instead of being oppressive. Economically, they should promote the development of one another rather than widen their wealth gap. Culturally, they should learn from one another to prosper together, and make sure no culture is excluded. In terms of security, they should work together to forge a new security concept that stresses mutual trust, mutual benefit, equality and collaboration. Under this new concept, China is in favor of resolving disputes through dialog and cooperation rather than the use or threat of force. China opposes to all forms of hegemony an power politics; it will, therefore, never seek expansion and domination.
