以下是我们总结的几大翻译话题，供大家参考练习

一、京剧Peking Opera

京剧，号称东方歌剧，是地道的中国国粹，可以追溯到1790年。那年，4个徽剧戏班子奉诏进京表演。京剧的一大特点是在人物的脸上涂上各种颜色，以象征这个人物的性格和品质。简单的讲，红脸含有褒义，代表忠勇；黑脸代表智慧；蓝脸和绿脸代表草莽英雄；黄脸和白脸代表奸诈；金脸和银脸代表神秘或超自然力量。现如今，京剧也成了颇受人们欢迎的艺术形式之一，广受推崇。

Peking Opera，known as the Eastern Opera，is a purely one of best parts of Chinese culture，it can dates back to the year of 1790. In that year，four local opera troupes of Anhui province came to Beijing on a performance tour. For the painted roles, a special feature of Peking Opera, the different colors of the faces represent different characters and personalities. Generally, red stands for uprightness and loyalty, black means wisdom, blue and green indicate the vigorous and rebellious heroes,yellow and white represent cunning and gold and silver represent mystic or super-natural power.

Nowadays, Peking Opera has became one of the most popular arts among people and widespread all over the country.

二、丝绸之路The Silk Road

丝绸之路实际上是很多条中国通往古罗马商路的总称。古代丝绸之路的起点是中国当时的古都长安（现在的西安），终点在地中海东岸，几乎有一半路程穿越新疆。丝绸之路始于汉武帝时期，不仅是佛教进入中国的通道，而且路上商旅往来络绎不绝。元朝时，丝绸之路逐渐被日益繁荣的海上贸易所取代。丝绸之路还是一条友谊之路，在政治、经

济、文化方面发挥了纽带的作用。

The Silk Road is the joint name given to a number of trade routes linking China and ancient Rome. The ancient silk road had its start in Chang’an(now Xi’an), the capital of then China, and its terminus on the eastern coast of the Mediterranean, with nearly half of it running across Xinjiang. The Silk Road began during the time of emperor Wudi of the Han dynasty, is not only an important route for Buddhism to enter china, but also an endless stream of merchants and business travelers. In the Yuan dynasty, the silk road gradually gave the way to the rapidly developing sea trade. The Silk Road was also a road of friendship, linking the west and the east economically,politically and culturally.

三、中国新年Chinese New Year

中国的新年，又称春节。这是合家欢聚的日子，家里人都要赶回来，就像西方的圣诞节一样。不过，我们是在农历的一月一日过新年，一般会比阳历晚一个月。过年的时候，小辈们先向父母和祖父母祝贺新年快乐，之后就会收到红包。我们还可以在见面的时候互相说：“恭喜发财，新年快乐，生意兴隆”等问候语以衬托过年喜庆的节日气氛。

The Chinese New Year, also called the spring festival, is an occasion of reunion for family members. The same thing happen in the west for the Christmas. However, the Chinese New Year falls on the January 1stof the lunar calendar, which comes usually later than the same date of the Gregorian calendar. There is money in the red envelop, given by parents and grand parents to kids as New Year gift after they wish the elders

a happy new year. We also can deliver some words like “wish you a good fortune，wish

you a happy new year，wish you a prosperous business” to add the joyous atmosphere for the spring festival.

四、中国少数民族

中国是一个统一的多民族国家，有56个民族。目前，中国共有55个少数民族，人口一亿多，占全国总人口的12%左右；民族自治地区面积超过600万平方公里，占国土总面积的64.2%。由于独特的自然环境，社会条件和经济发展水平，我国各民族人民发展了各自独特的风俗习惯，包括饮食、服饰和礼仪。一般来说，汉族人主食喜欢吃大米、白面，吃蔬菜、豆类及鱼肉蛋，并十分注重烹调艺术。

China is a unified multi-ethnic country with 56 ethnic nationalities. More than 100 million of population, or about 12 percent of China’s total population are from 55 ethnic minorities. Ethnic autonomous regions cover over 6 million square km, making up 64.2 percent of China’s territory. China’s different peoples have developed

individual customs regarding food, clothing and etiquette, in response to their own particular environments, social conditions and levels of economic development.

Generally, the Han people take rice and flour as their staple diet, love to eat

vegetables, beans, meat, fish and eggs, and pay particular attention to the art of

cooking.

五、工艺品

中国的民间手工艺有很悠久的历史。首当其冲的就是玉，在中国，玉器有七八千年的历史。公元前3,500年左右开始，中国就有玉雕工艺了。常见的玉器有花、鸟、兽和人物，特别是传说里漂亮的仙女。还有很多别的工艺品，比如各种各样的刺绣、地毯、泥人儿和面人儿、剪纸、风筝、彩灯等等。为了继承和发扬我国优秀的传统工艺，全国成立了两百多所专门的工艺美术学院和职业学校。

China’s folk arts and crafts have a very long history. First we should come to the jade which has a history of seven to eight thousands years in china. The art of jade carving has been in existence in china since around 3500B.C. the common Jade wares includes the jade of flowers, birds, animals and human figures, especially the beautiful women from fairy tales or legends. There are lots of other arts and crafts such as embroidery，carpet，clay and dough toys，paper cuts，kites，and colored lanterns and so on. In order to inherit and carryforward our fine traditional arts and crafts, over 200 colleges and specialized vocational schools of arts and crafts have been set up nationwide.

六、中国老龄问题

我国目前60岁以上人口超过一亿五千万，约占总人口数的12%。这个数字超过世界上任何一个国家。老龄人口正以3.2%的平均增长率增长。到本世纪中期，老年人总人数将超过四亿，占当时总人口数的30%以上。为了改善老年人的生活，政府和社会已经做了大量的工作。目前工作的重点是改革和完善社会保障体系，争取使所有的退休老人都能及时拿到退休金。

China’s population over 60 totals more than 150 million, or nearly12 percent of the total, a figure bigger than that of any other countries in the world .China’s a aging population is growing at an average rate of 3.2 percent, and it will exceed 400 million by the middle of this century , or more than30 percent of the total population. The government and the society as a whole have made great efforts to improve the life of the elderly. Currently, the priority is to reform and improve the social security system in order to ensure all retired people receive their pensions on time.

七、青少年教育

关于青少年教育，有两个问题特别值得注意：一是独生子女的教育问题，二是青少年犯罪问题。对于家长来说，怎样教育孩子是一门大学问。我们为父母提供咨询服务，反应一直很好。另外，青少年犯罪是另一大大问题。去年，全国抓获青少年犯罪分子近7万人，占全国所有犯罪人数的9.1%。国家通过了新的《未成年人保护法》，就是要求家庭、学校、社会、司法部门几个方面齐抓共管，以保证青少年的健康成长。

There are two major concerns in the education of teenagers that deserve our attention; the education of the only child in a family and the issue of juvenile delinquency.For us parents, there is much to learn in the education of our children, The counseling service we have provided to parents has been well received.

Juvenile delinquency is another major concern. Nearly 70,000 juvenile delinquents we rearrested last year, accounting for 9.1 percent of the total criminal suspects arrested nationwide.The newly revised “Law on the Protection of Minors” expects families, schools, society and judicial departments to work together to ensure a healthy development of the youngsters in China.

八、妇女权益

我们国家一贯重视培养妇女教育工作者，积极改善她们的工作和生活条件，支持她们从事教育工作。但是我们要看到，在经济快速发展过程中，有出现了许多新问题，如一些企业的妇女被迫下岗；一些妇女因为专业资历不够，无法胜任新的工作；一些用人单位提高招收女性的条件等。我们希望能够通过各种会议讨论这些问题，以应对新的挑战，真正保护好妇女权益。

The Chinese government attaches great importance to training women educational workers and makes earnest efforts to improve their working and living conditions. Yet, we have to realize that many new problems have emerged in the course of rapid economic development. Some women workers are laid off from enterprises. Some women find themselves unable to take those newly created jobs because of their lack of professional qualifications. Some employers set a higher standard for women when recruiting employees. Our conference will focus on these issues so as to face new challenges and truly protect the rights and interests of women.

九、农民生活变化

农村改革之后，农村的农业生产和乡镇企业都有了很大的发展，村里家家户户都有了存款，都有了自己的新房子。都购置了彩色电视机、VCD机、卡拉OK机，还有的年轻人买摩托，这些可都是他们以前从来没有想过的。另外一个非常显著的变化就是农民的身体都越来越健康，越来越硬朗，一般看起来都比实际年龄要小，要年轻。子女接受的教育也越来越好，使家庭的未来以及自己的未来更加有保障。

Since the rural reform, the agricultural production and the village and township enterprises have had a big growth, and every housed in my village has some savings and their own houses. They also enjoy the color TV sets, VCD players, KalaOK machines and some young people buy Motorbikes which they had never dreamed of.

Another obvious change is the farmers have been enjoying a better physical condition

which could hardly tell their true age from the facial appearance. Their children have received a better education which can make sure a wonderful future both their family and children.

十、铁路提速

近来，中国又一次进行了全国铁路提速，这是第五次。并且列车上为乘客增设了最新设施，如液晶电视机、宽带连接口。实际上，以往铁路提速之后，一些在中小城市车站停靠的列车数量便减少了，给当地居民造成了一些不便。他们必须到大一些的站才能坐上较舒适的列车。当然，现在我们铁路部门也为他们提供更多的列车，以照顾中小城市居民的利益，目的就是合理利用资源。

Recently, China once again increased train speeds on nationwide railway lines, the fifth of its kind. As you’ve noticed,this train provides passengers with some latest facilities, such as LCD TV sets and broadband Internet access. In fact, previous train speed accelerations have decreased the number of trains that call at small and medium-sized cities, resulting in inconveniences to local residents, they have to go bigger stations to have more comfortable journey. The railway departments are considering to more trains to meet the needs of residents in small and medium-sized cities,Our aim is to use railway resources effectively.

十一、中国功夫

武术又称功夫，在中国已经有1000年历史了。中国的劳动人民练习武术以强身健体和自我保护，武术至今仍大受欢迎。中国武术还引起了外国人的兴趣，在全世界不少国家，都有人学习武术。练习武术有各种各样的固定套路，有的要赤手空拳，有的要拿武器。武术是中国特有的民族运动，它可以锻炼身体，培养意志力，训练打斗技巧。

Wushu, known as Kongfu or martial arts, has a history of a thousand years in China.The working people in China practice Wushu for physical training and self-defense and Wushu is still immensely popular today. Chinese Wushu has also aroused interest among foreigners and is taught in many countries throughout the world. Wushu is practiced in various types of set exercises, either bare-handed or with weapons. A unique Chinese national sport, Wushu builds strong bodies, steels the willpower and gives training in fighting skills.

十二、中秋节

中秋节吃月饼就像西方人圣诞节吃百果馅饼一样，是必不可少的。圆圆的月饼中通常包有香甜的莲子馅或是红豆馅，馅的中央还会加上一个金黄的咸鸭蛋黄来代表月亮。而月亮正是中秋节庆祝的主题。每年农历8月15日人们一起庆祝中秋，据说这一天的月亮是一年中

最亮最圆的。

Mooncakes are to Mid-Autumn Festival what mince pies are to Christmas.The seasonal round cakes traditionally have a sweet filling of lotus seed pasteor red bean paste and often have one or more salted duck eggs in the center to represent the moon. And the moon is what this celebration is all about.Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month, it is the time when the moon is said to be at its brightest and fullest.

十三、中国礼仪茶文化

中国是文明古国，礼仪之邦，很重礼节。凡来了客人，沏茶、敬茶的礼仪是必不可少的。当有客来访，可征求意见，选用最合来客口味的茶叶和最佳茶具待客。主人在陪伴客人饮茶时，要注意客人杯、壶中的茶水残留量，一般用茶杯泡茶，如已喝去一半，就要添加开水，随喝随添，使茶水浓度基本保持前后一致，水温适宜。在饮茶时也可适当佐以茶食、糖果、菜肴等，达到调节口味和点心之功效。

China is a country with a time-honored civilization and a land of ceremony and decorum. Whenever guests visit, it is necessary to make and serve tea to them. Before serving tea, you may ask them for their preferences as to what kind of tea they fancy and serve them the tea in the most appropriate teacups. In the course of serving tea, the host should take careful note of how much water is remaining in the cups and in the https://www.wendangku.net/doc/1d869640.html,ually, if the tea is made in a teacup, boiling water should be added after half of the cup has been consumed; and thus the cup is kept filled so that the tea retains the same bouquet and remains pleasantly warm throughout the entirecourse of tea-drinking. Snacks, sweets and other dishes may be served at teatime to complement the fragrance of the tea and to allay one's hunger.

You should write your answer on Answer Sheet 2. 2016年12月英语四级翻译真题及参考答案（卷一）红色 在中国文化中，红色通常象征着好运、长寿和幸福，在春节和其他喜庆场合，红色到处可见。人们把现金作为礼物送给家人或亲密朋友时，通常放在红信封里。红色在中国流行的另一个原因是人们把它与中国革命和共产党相联系。然而，红色并不总是代表好运与快乐。因为从前死者的名字常用红色书写，用红墨水写中国人名被看成是一种冒犯行为。 参考范文：

在中国文化中，黄颜色是一种很重要的颜色，因为它具有独特的象征意义。在封建(feudal)社会中，它象征统治者的权力和权威。那时，黄色是专为皇帝使用的颜色，皇家宫殿全都漆成黄色，皇袍总是黄色的，而普通老百姓是禁止穿黄色衣服的。在中国，黄色也是收获的象征。秋天庄稼成熟时，田野变得一片金黄。人们兴高采烈，庆祝丰收。 要点1：黄颜色是一种很重要的颜色yellow is an important color, 相信这句大家都能译的出来，不过要注意：“黄颜色”不需要写yellow color，因为yellow本来就是黄色。 要点2：它具有独特的象征意义which carries a unique symbolic meaning. 要点3：它象征着统治者的权利和权威It embodies rulers’ power and authority.此处，统治者可以接受的译法还有：governor, dominator 都是可以的。象征还可以写成symbolize,represent. 要点4：皇家宫殿全都漆成黄色royal palaces were painted with yellow. 皇家宫殿royal palaces，皇帝emperor，黄袍imperial robes. 要点5：普通老百姓是禁止穿黄色衣服的average people were not allowed to wear yellow clothes，禁止还可以用：ban, forbid. 要点6：秋天庄稼成熟时，田野变得一片金黄When crops are ripe in Fall,the farmlands become a piece of golden yellow.

The main crop there is wheat. In China, some people use flour to bake bread,while most people make steamed bread and noodles with flour. xx 中国是世界上最古老的文明之一。构成现代世界基础的许多元素起源于中国。中国现在拥有世界上发展最快的经济，并正经历着一次新的工业革命。中国还启动了雄心勃勃的太空探索计划，其中包括到20年建成的一个太空站。目前，中国是世界最大的出口国之一，并正在吸引大量外国投资。同时，它也在海外投资数十亿美元。2011年，中国超越日本成为世界第二大经济体。 快递 据报道，今年中国快递服务（courier service）将递送大约120亿件包裹。这将使中国有可能超越美国成为世界上最大的快递市场。大多数包裹里装着网上订购的物品。中国给数百万在线零售商以极具竞争力的价格销售商品的机会。仅在11月11日，中国消费者就从国内最大的购物平台购买了价值90亿美元的商品。中国有不少这样的特殊购物日。因此，快递业在中国扩展就不足为奇了。

今年考的三套翻译题均是跟中国的公共交通相关的内容，介绍了公交车、飞机、地铁服务的提升，以及市民生活水平的提高。展现了我国社会的发展和人民幸福水平的提升。 交通方式这一话题是考生日常所熟知的，也比较贴近考生的生活，词汇对于考生来说不是问题，“公交车”、“航空”等都是小学初中就接触到的词汇，但是需要考生去积累一些组合词汇，例如：“私家车private car”、“老年市民senior citizens”等。 对段落内容的理解也不是难事，毕竟交通方式是生活中老生常谈的话题，主要的难点在于一些固定的句式和搭配，例如“随着经济的发展和人民生活水平的提高”是考生耳熟能详的“万金油”句式。 诸如此类句式还有：“曾是……used to be…”、“越来越……more and more…”这些表达应该是考生在平时的学习中慢慢积累的。 此外，时态语态也是考生容易出错的点，由于汉语和英语表达习惯的不同，汉语中不常用被动，或者即使表达被动的意思也不会体现在句式上，例如：“公交车设施不断更新”，从字面并没有任何提示是被动，但语义的理解却带有被动的含义，翻译成英语时一定要体现出“be+过去分词”的结构。 又如“许多城市……一直努力……”,需要判断，这个动作发生在过去的某个时间节点，一直持续，并还可能持续下去，最后确定此处应选用现在完成进行时，在平时的学习中，应理解每种时态对应的情况，才能更加贴切地表达出原文所要传达的意思 句子的语序调整仍值得考生注意。时间状语、地点状语、原因状语、目的状语和方式状语仍然是重要的考点，一般情况下都要后置。 其次是句型的变化。注意运用被动语态(从中英文语用习惯以及动词发出者的逻辑主语去改句子)、插入语(例如，“包括许多农民和外出务工人员”)、there be 句型(非人主语+有/存在。例如，中国有越来越多的城市开始建设地铁)和It为形式主语的句子(例如，乘飞机出行对大多数中国人来说是难以想象的)进行改句，防止句式单一。 过去，乘飞机出行对大多数中国人来说是难以想象的。 In the past, travelling by airplane was unimaginable for most Chinese.
