解析
本题主要考查运用所给英文词汇或短语将中文句子准确翻译成英文的能力。解题时需要先理解中文句子的含义和结构,再结合所给英文词汇或短语,按照英文的表达习惯进行翻译。
第1题
- 中文句子“我们中的大多数人都在尽量减少对环境的影响,但这些集体努力是否足以让我们在2050年之前实现净零排放(net zero)?”,核心表达是“大多数人尽量减少对环境的影响”和“集体努力是否足以实现2050年净零排放”。
- “我们中的大多数人”可翻译为“Most of us”;“尽量减少”是“try to minimize”;“对环境的影响”是“our impact on the environment”;“集体努力”是“collective efforts”;“足以”是“be enough to”;“实现净零排放”是“achieve net zero”;“在2050年之前”是“by 2050”。
- 按照英文句子结构,先翻译前半句“Most of us are trying to minimize our impact on the environment”,后半句用“but”连接,即“but will these collective efforts be enough to achieve net zero by 2050?”,所以完整译文为“Most of us are trying to minimize our impact on the environment, but will these collective efforts be enough to achieve net zero by 2050?”
第2题
- 中文句子“当前的中美关系面临建交以来颇为复杂的局面,根源在于美国一些极端势力(hardliner)处心积虑地要把中国渲染成主要对手。”,关键信息有“当前的中美关系面临复杂局面”“建交以来”“根源在于”“美国一些极端势力”“处心积虑地”“把中国渲染成主要对手”。
- “当前的中美关系”是“The current Sino - US relations”;“面临”是“are facing”;“颇为复杂的局面”是“a rather complex situation”;“建交以来”是“since the establishment of diplomatic ties”;“根源在于”是“the root cause lies in”;“美国一些极端势力”是“some American hardliners”;“处心积虑地”可理解为“deliberately”;“把中国渲染成主要对手”是“portray China as the main rival”。
- 先翻译“当前的中美关系面临建交以来颇为复杂的局面”为“The current Sino - US relations are facing a rather complex situation since the establishment of diplomatic ties”,再用“and”连接后半句“the root cause lies in the fact that some American hardliners are deliberately trying to portray China as the main rival”,完整译文为“The current Sino - US relations are facing a rather complex situation since the establishment of diplomatic ties, and the root cause lies in the fact that some American hardliners are deliberately trying to portray China as the main rival.”
第3题
- 中文句子“中东地区出现数个持续的武装冲突。”,重点是“中东地区”“出现”“数个持续的武装冲突”。
- “中东地区”是“The Middle East”;“出现”可以用“have emerged”或者“has seen”;“数个持续的武装冲突”是“several ongoing armed conflicts”。
- 可以翻译为“Several ongoing armed conflicts have emerged in the Middle East.”,也可以是“The Middle East has seen several ongoing armed conflicts.”
第4题
- 中文句子“那位老人不愿意放弃他的旧房子,进而改变他的生活方式。”,主要表达“老人不愿意放弃旧房子”和“改变生活方式”。
- “那位老人”是“The old man”或者“The elderly man”;“不愿意”是“is unwilling to”;“放弃”是“give up”或者“abandon”;“旧房子”是“his old house”;“改变他的生活方式”是“alter his lifestyle”或者“alter his way of life”。
- 可以用“thereby”连接两个动作,翻译为“The old man is unwilling to give up his old house, thereby altering his lifestyle.”,也可以用“which”引导的非限定性定语从句,即“The elderly man is unwilling to abandon his old house, which would alter his way of life.”
第5题
- 中文句子“如果你有任何关于课程学分的问题,可以和老师去谈。”,关键是“如果你有任何问题”“关于课程学分”“和老师谈”。
- “如果你有任何问题”可以用“If you have any issues”或者“Should you have any issues”;“关于课程学分”是“with course credits”;“和老师谈”是“talk to the teacher”或者“discuss them with the teacher”。
- 可以翻译为“If you have any issues with course credits, you can talk to the teacher.”,也可以是“Should you have any issues with the course credits, you may discuss them with the teacher.”
