醫(yī)生該如何學(xué)習(xí)誠實(shí)對待他們的病人呢?進(jìn)行更多關(guān)于如何與病人溝通其健康狀況的培訓(xùn)是極其重要的——尤其是在告知(deliver)壞消息時。如果檢查結(jié)果對病人的健康沒有影響的話,醫(yī)生們可能不會把略有異常的實(shí)驗(yàn)室檢查結(jié)果告訴給焦慮的病人。相反地,醫(yī)生也許會夸大(exaggerate)正常的結(jié)果,希望能刺激病人更好地照顧自己。而病人們也需要清楚并確定他們所期望的醫(yī)生的誠實(shí)度。畢竟,即便在醫(yī)生的辦公室里,交流也是雙向的。參考譯文:
How can doctors learn to be honest with their patients? More training about how to communicate with patients about their health is critical—especially when it comes to delivering bad news.Doctors may not tell the anxious patients the slightly abnormal results of a lab test, if it has no impact on the patient’s health.Conversely, they might exaggerate a normal result in hopes of motivating a patient to take better care of himself.Patients also need to be clear and certain about how honest they want their doctors to be.Communication is a two-way street, after all, even in the doctor’s office.詞句點(diǎn)撥
1、極其重要的 critical
2、尤其是在告知(deliver)壞消息時 when it comes to delivering bad news.(注:注意come to的用法。come to sth.其中的一個意思就是“當(dāng)達(dá)到某種狀況(尤指不好的狀況)時”。)
3、如果檢查結(jié)果對病人的健康沒有影響的話,醫(yī)生們可能不會把略有異常的實(shí)驗(yàn)室檢查結(jié)果告訴給焦慮的病人。Doctors may not tell the anxious patients the slightly abnormal results of a lab test, if it has no impact on the patient’s health.(注:注意這句話的翻譯順序,及檢查結(jié)果重復(fù)出現(xiàn)時,翻譯時可譯為it。)
4、希望能刺激病人更好地照顧自己 in hopes of motivating a patient to take better care of himself
5、清楚并確定 be clear and certain
6、雙向的 a two-way street
信用卡(credit card)是由銀行發(fā)行的卡,持卡人可以憑卡賒購(buy on credit)商品和服務(wù)。使用信用卡最大的好處就是能給持卡人帶來極大的方便。人們可以 使用信用卡賒購他們需要的東西,并在一段時期內(nèi)付淸欠款,而不必隨身攜帶大量的現(xiàn)金。但如此的便利也帶來了一些問題,如惡意透支(malicious overdraft)。還會剌激使用者超前消費(fèi),容易產(chǎn)生月光族。在消費(fèi)的時候,使用信用卡會促使消費(fèi)者更加沖動地購物,甚至購買一些平時不怎么用的商品。參考譯文:
A credit card is a card issued by a bank,allowing its holder to buy goods and services on credit.The most obvious advantage of credit card is the huge convenience it brings to card holders.People can use the cards to buy what they want on credit and pay off the debt over a period of time instead of carrying a large sum of cash with them.But such convenience also brings such problems as malicious overdraft and overconsumption which will easily reduce the card users to“moonlight group”.When shopping,consumers with credit cards will buy goods more impetuously.They will even buy something that is not often used in daily life.詞句點(diǎn)撥
1.賒購商品和服務(wù):賒購可用短語buy...on credit來表達(dá)。故此處可譯為buy goods and services on credit。2.最大的好處:“大的好處”即“明顯的好處”,故此處可譯為the most obvious advantage。其中obvious意為“顯著的”。3.但如此的便利也帶來了一些問題,如惡意透支…:可譯為But such convenience also brings such problems as malicious overdraft"其中,使用“such+n.+as...”這個結(jié)構(gòu)可以達(dá)到清晰列舉事例的效果。例如,我們買了蘋果、香蕉、葡萄等水果,即We bought such fruits as apples,bananas,grapes,etc.4.惡意透支和超前消費(fèi):分別可譯為名詞短語malicious overdraft和over-consumption。
傳統(tǒng)的中國婚俗被視為中國傳統(tǒng)文化禮儀的基礎(chǔ)。通常,婚禮是隆重場合,有很多的禮節(jié)?;槎Y有八大程序,包括求婚、生辰匹配、合婚(marriage divination),下聘禮(betrothal gifts presenting)、確定婚期、置辦嫁妝(dowry urging)、迎娶新娘、舉行正式的結(jié)婚儀式。在中國傳統(tǒng)的婚禮中,新娘由新郎牽著。她頭頂紅蓋頭,全程都垂在肩上。傳統(tǒng)的中國婚俗已經(jīng)實(shí)行了幾千年。它們可能會因時間和地點(diǎn)而異,但在中國人的生活中一直占據(jù)著重要地位,對中國人的生活方式產(chǎn)生著深遠(yuǎn)的影響。參考譯文:
Traditional Chinese wedding customs are considered as the foundation of rites in traditional Chinese culture.A wedding is usually a grand occasion with so many formalities.There are eight major procedures of a wedding,including proposal making,birthday matching,marriage divination,betrothal gifts presenting,wedding date fixing,dowry urging,welcoming the bride to the wedding and performing the formal wedding ceremony.During the traditional Chinese wedding ceremony,the bride is led by her groom.Her head is covered by a red veil which is Ming down to her shoulder during the whole period.Traditional Chinese wedding customs have been running for thousands of years.They may vary from place to place and from time to time,but they have been holding an important position in the life of Chinese people,having a far-reaching impact on Chinese people's lifestyle.詞句點(diǎn)撥
1.隆重場合:可譯為a grand occasion。grand意為“重大的,盛大的 2.求婚:可譯為名詞結(jié)構(gòu)proposal making。3.生辰匹配:可譯為birthday matching。
4.合婚:八字合婚是中國民間的一種舊俗,即婚前男女雙方交換庚帖,以卜八字是否相配來確定婚姻是否幸福美滿。故此處譯為marriage divination,divination意為“預(yù)測,占卜”。
5.下聘禮:可譯為betrothal gifts presenting。betrothal是名詞,意為“訂婚”,betrothal gifts意為“聘禮”。6.置辦嫁妝:可譯為dowry urging。
7.紅蓋頭:可譯為red veil。veil意為“頭巾;面紗”。
8.因...而異:可譯為vary。vary是常見詞,常用詞組有vary from(與...不同),vary with(隨...而不同),vary in(在...方面有差異)。
地球表面超過70%是水,水無疑是地球上最寶貴的自然資源。若非這些看似毫無價值的氫氧化合物(compound of oxygen and hydrogen),地球上的生命將不復(fù)存在,因?yàn)槿f物的生長繁榮都依存于此。盡管人類承認(rèn)這個現(xiàn)實(shí),但是我們對此漠視,依然在污染我們的江河湖海。久而久之,地球確實(shí)深受其害,生物正以驚人的速度死亡。除了無辜生命的死亡外,我們的飲用水和水上娛樂活動也收到了極大的影響。為了應(yīng)對水污染,我們必須理解癥結(jié)所在,并參與解決。
請看下面的漢譯英段落翻譯:
【參考譯文】:
Comprising over 70% of the Earth’s surface, water is undoubtedly the most precious natural resource that exists on our planet.Without the seemingly invaluable compound of oxygen and hydrogen, life on Earth would be non-exist: it is essential for everything on our planet to grow and prosper.Although we as humans recognize this fact, we disregard it by polluting our rivers, lakes, and oceans.Subsequently, we are slowly but surely harming our planet to the point where organisms are dying at a very alarming rate.In addition to innocent organisms dying off, our drinking water has become greatly affected as is our abilities to use water for recreational purposes.In order to combat water pollution, we must understand the problems and become part of the solution.在當(dāng)今社會,相差三歲,就會有“溝”,即所謂的:“三歲一代溝”。以前,在人們的思維里,代溝(generation gap)所表示的時間長度是10到20年。而到了21世紀(jì),隨著全國各地的經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展,人們文化知識的增長,思想意識的提髙,每個人的個性化和自我意識逐漸增強(qiáng),人與人之間的交流出現(xiàn)了障礙,人與人之間的想法、觀點(diǎn)出現(xiàn)了分歧,很難找到共鳴(resonance)。這種現(xiàn)象與經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)達(dá)程度有關(guān),經(jīng)濟(jì)越發(fā)達(dá)的地方,代溝的時間差距越小。參考譯文:
In modern society,there will be a generation gap if the gap of ages reaches 3 years.This is the so-called“Each three-year age gap,one generation gap”.In the past,people thought that generation gap appeared when the age gap reached 10 to 20 years.But in the 21st century,with the national economic development,the growth of people's cultural knowledge and the improvement of their thought and consciousness,people's individualization and self-awareness have gradually been strengthened.Communication barriers among people appear;ideas and viewpoints begin to differ from person to person,making it hard for one to find resonance with other people.This phenomenon is related to the level of economic development-the more developed a place is,the narrower the age gap will be.詞句點(diǎn)撥
1.相差三歲,就會有“溝”:這里的“溝”指代溝。
2.三歲一代溝:可譯Each three-year age gap,one generation gap,意為“每差三歲,就有代溝”。英文譯成對仗的形式顯得較為工整。
3.思想意識的提高:可譯為the improvement of thoughts and consciousness。
4.每個人的個性化和自我意識逐漸增強(qiáng):可譯為people's individualization and self-awareness have gradually been strengthened。
5.很難找到共鳴:該句其實(shí)是“交流出現(xiàn)了障礙”、“想法、觀點(diǎn)出現(xiàn)了分歧”的結(jié)果,故譯為非謂語形式making it hard for one to find resonance with other people作結(jié)果狀語。6.經(jīng)濟(jì)越發(fā)達(dá)的地方,代溝的時間差距越小:翻譯時可使the more…the more…句式,即the more developed a place is,the narrower the age gap will be。
打車難已經(jīng)成為大城市人們生活中較為普遍的問題。城市人口規(guī)模的擴(kuò)大,人類社會活動的不斷多元(diversification)化都增加了對出租車的需求。隨著城市交通擁堵狀況不斷加劇,為避免堵車影響收人,上下班高峰時段很多司機(jī)不愿意跑擁堵路段和主城區(qū),導(dǎo)致市民在一些交通樞紐、商業(yè)中心、醫(yī)院附近很難打到出租車。城市建設(shè)影響了出租車的使用效率。出租車行業(yè)不規(guī)范,拒載行為屢屢發(fā)生,這也是導(dǎo)致打車難的人為因素 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.詞句點(diǎn)撥
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(dá)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(fù)出現(xiàn)“堵車”這個詞,所以可以省略。
4.出租車行業(yè)不規(guī)范,拒載行為屢屢發(fā)生:這里是說明原因,為了句式簡明,可以處理為動名詞和獨(dú)立主格的形式,直接充當(dāng)句子主語。
5.人為因素:可譯為human factor。

京劇
京?。≒eking Opera)已有200多年的歷史,是中國的國劇。與其他地方戲相比,京劇享有更高的榮譽(yù),但其實(shí)京劇融合了多種地方戲的元素。京劇演員的臉譜(facial make-up)和戲服都很精美,相比之下舞臺布景則十分簡單。表演者主要應(yīng)用四種技能:唱、念、做、打。京劇較擅長于表現(xiàn)歷史題材的政治、軍事斗爭,故事大多取自于歷史演義和小說話本(historic and fictional stories)。在古代,京劇大多是在戶外演出的,因此演員們形成了一種有穿透力的唱腔,以便每個人都能聽到。

中國衛(wèi)生監(jiān)督部門決定在未來三到五年之內(nèi)建立一個全國性的網(wǎng)絡(luò),用以監(jiān)測空氣污染對人類健康的影響。這一目標(biāo)于國家衛(wèi)生和計(jì)劃生育委員會(National Health and Family Planning Commission)針對空氣污染的一份工作文件中披露,根據(jù)這份文件,該網(wǎng)絡(luò)將搜集不同地區(qū)空氣中的PM2.5數(shù)據(jù)和主要空氣污染物濃度變化的數(shù)據(jù)。這將為分析和評估空氣污染對健康的影響提供數(shù)據(jù)支持。這一文件提到,缺乏長期而系統(tǒng)的監(jiān)測使國家無法揭示空氣污染和人類健康之間的聯(lián)系。
China’s health watchdog has decided to set up a national network to monitor the impact air pollution on human’s health within the coming three to five years.The goal was revealed in a work document on air pollution released by National Health and Family Planning Commission.According to the document, the network will gather data on PM2.5 in the air in different regions and the density changes of main air pollutants.That will provide data support for the analysis and evaluation of the impact of air pollution on health.The document noted that lack of long-term and systematic monitoring prevented the country from uncovering the link between air pollution and human’s health.2013年12月第一套
中國人自古以來就在中秋時節(jié)慶祝豐收。這與北美地區(qū)慶祝感恩節(jié)的習(xí)俗十分相似。過中秋節(jié)的習(xí)俗于唐代早期在中國各地開始流行。中秋節(jié)在農(nóng)歷八月十五,是人門拜月的節(jié)日。這天夜晚皓月當(dāng)空,人們合家團(tuán)聚,共賞明月。2006年,中秋節(jié)貝類為中國文化遺產(chǎn),2008年又被定位公共假日。月餅被視為中秋節(jié)不可或缺的美食。人們將月餅作為禮物饋贈親友或在家庭聚會上享用。傳統(tǒng)的月餅上帶有“壽(longevity)”、“福”或“和”等字樣。

翻譯策略
1)分句法
把原文中一個單詞或短語譯成句子,使原文的一個句子分譯成兩個或兩個以上的句子。或干脆把原文的一個句子拆開,譯成兩個或兩個以上的句子。
例1 八月中旬,修理組人員在驕陽下工作。
譯文: It was in mid-August,and the repair section operated under the blazing sun.(一個單句拆分成了一個并列復(fù)合句)
例2 他為人單純而坦率。
譯文: He was very clean.His mind was open.(一個單句拆分成兩個簡單句了)
例3 The mother might have spoken with understandable pride of her child.譯文: 母親談到她的孩子時,也許有自豪感,這是可以理解的。(形容詞被拆開)
例4 I wrote four books in the first three years ,a record never touched before.譯文: 我頭三年寫了四本書,打破了以往的記錄。(名詞短語拆開)
2)合句法
把原文中兩個或以上的簡單句,主從復(fù)合句或并列復(fù)合句等譯成一個單句。
例5 她已試了好幾次,要幫他們另找一所出租的房子,結(jié)果并未成功。
譯文:She had made several attempts to help them find other rental quarters without success.(多個簡單句合成一個單句)
例6 他們有遵守交通規(guī)則,機(jī)器出了故障。

1.By taking exercises
解析:通過鍛煉,我們可以保持健康。其實(shí)這題答案不止一個?!板憻挕笨梢杂妹~也可以用動詞短語?!巴ㄟ^”可以用by表示方式,through表示途徑。By taking exercises /Through exercises。往往by用于“by + doing”,而through后接名詞哦。
2.listening to music enables us to feel relaxed
解析:“聽音樂”在句中作主語,“聽”應(yīng)當(dāng)處理成動名詞形式?!澳苁刮覀兎潘伞焙芏嗤瑢W(xué)會采用 can make us feel relaxed的結(jié)構(gòu)。其實(shí),enable就有“能夠使某人??”的含義,注意enable sb.to do 的表達(dá)。
3.On no account can we
解析:本題是強(qiáng)調(diào)語氣,強(qiáng)調(diào)“決不能”,所以聯(lián)想到on no account ,by no means,at no time,in no case等。不管用哪一個,都要注意它們是含有否定的意味的,因此在置于句首時應(yīng)使用倒裝語序。
4.fake and inferior commodities
解析:“假冒偽劣商品”包含兩層含義:一是假貨,二是次品,在翻譯成英文的時候應(yīng)
該注意兩層含義的正確譯法?!凹倜啊辈荒苡胒alse而應(yīng)選擇fake,“次品”可以說inferior表示質(zhì)量差,也可以用commodity of low quality。
5.draw useful lessons from it
解析:句意為:面對失敗,有的人能夠頑強(qiáng)抵抗,從中吸取教訓(xùn),努力實(shí)現(xiàn)他們的目標(biāo)。本句由三個并列的謂語成分構(gòu)成,謂語動詞分別是stand up to“汲取”和try?!凹橙〗逃?xùn)”正確表達(dá)為draw a lesson from。然而我們又能從全句判斷,從失敗中吸取教訓(xùn)是為了將來能夠更好地實(shí)現(xiàn)目標(biāo),因此加上修飾語useful,使內(nèi)容更明確。
