大学英语翻译课堂教学存在的问题以及对策

大学英语翻译课堂教学存在的问题以及对策 【摘要】自翻译成为一门独立的学科以来,翻译教学的重要性越来越受到重视。但在大学英语翻译课堂中仍然存在一些问题,导致翻译教学效果不佳,学生的翻译水平有限。本文探讨了大学英语翻译教学的现状和存在的问题,以及如何采取必要措施,切实提高学生的翻译能力,为社会、市场输出更多符合需求的翻译人才。 【关键词】大学英语翻译教学问题 1.大学英语翻译教学的现状及存在问题 随着经济的全球化以及对外交流的进一步扩大,翻译能力的重要性得到进一步的凸显。而翻译成为一个正式的学科,也极大地推动了翻译教学的发展。根据国家教委颁发的《大学英语教学大纲》,对学生英语翻译能力的要求指能借助词典,将难度略低于课文的英语短文翻译成汉语,能达到基本的翻译要求,译速为每小时300个英语单词。但目前的翻译教学还存在很多问题,使达到这个目标有一定困难,亟待解决。 1.1教师定位不准确,与学生的互动和交流有待加强 翻译是一门注重实践的学科,学生需要大量的练习才能磨练出翻译水平,而在练习的过程中,翻译的技巧起着指导

性的作用。因此,教师在翻译课堂上更像是一个指路人,而并不是掌控课堂所有话语权的主导者。教师给予翻译技巧、翻译案例、应对方法,同时给学生的翻译实践做出反馈。而如果教师不给予学生一定的主动性,和学生的互动不够的话,势必会背离翻译教学的目标。 1.2 过分依赖多媒体技术 多媒体教学由教师、学生、教学内容与多媒体构成,其本质于传统课堂相同,只是加入了多媒体的手段。多媒体教学拥有很多传统的课堂教学模式没有的优势,但是这并不代表教师要完全摒弃传统的教学模式。然而,在实际操作过程中,很多教师过分依赖多媒体技术,却忽略了传统的教学模式的使用,结果不但没有提升教学质量,反而降低教学质量。在传统的教学环境下,教师撰写教案,在课堂上以板书的形式为学生讲解教学重点以及难点。多媒体环境下,教师为了节省板书的时间,采用PPT课件的形式进行教学。但如果完全依赖于教学课件,整节课堂不进行任何板书或只有少量板书,一味借助PPT进行讲解,教学效果便会大打折扣。更有甚者,一旦停电或者多媒体设备出现故障,便无法正常完成教学内容的讲解。 1.3只注重理论教育,忽略实践能力的培养 在全球化的背景下,社会需要的是既具有一定的理论基础,又具有一定的实践能力的综合性人才。但在目前的英语

从本质上讲,“工匠精神”是一种职业精神,它是职业道德、职业能力、职业品质的体现,是从业者的一种职业价值取向和行为表现。“工匠精神”的基本内涵包括敬业、精益、专注、创新等方面的内容。 Essentially, “Craftsman Spirit”is an artisan spirit which reflects one’s morality, ability and quality of job. It is one of the professional value and behaviour. The fundamental elements of “Craftsman Spirit” include, among other things, devotion, lean, concentration, and innovation. 其一,敬业。中华民族历来有“敬业乐群”“忠于职守”的传统。早在春秋时期,孔子就主张人在一生中始终要“执事敬”“事思敬”“修己以敬”。 First of all, devotion. It is the tradition of the Chinese to do our duty. In the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucius advocated that people should try to take their responsibility for their whole lives. 其二,精益。能基业长青的企业,无不是精益求精才获得成功的。瑞士手表得以誉满天下、畅销世界、成为经典,靠的就是制表匠们对每一个零件、每一道工序、每一块手表都精心打磨、专心雕琢的精益精神。 Second, lean.None of the successful enterprises that can base industry evergreen without the excellence. The reason why Swiss watches became internationally renowned, best-selling and a classic is the pursuit of that inspires the watchmakers to concentrate on polishing each part, each working procedure, each a watch carefully. 其三,专注。专注就是内心笃定而着眼于细节的耐心、执着、坚持的精神,这是一切“大国工匠”所必须具备的精神特质。从中外实践经验来看,工匠精神都意味

关于英语翻译教学的几点尝试

关于英语翻译教学的几点尝试 人教版初级中学英语课本的语言比旧版课本的语言难度要大一些,有些句子翻译起来踌躇再三。如So a pet can help a person feel less lonely.(L57BIII) 教材提供的译文是:因此宠物可以使人减少孤独感。这句英文因为不能逐字对译,所以不能回译成原文。如果将原文译成:因此有了宠物作伴,人就不至于感到太孤单了。虽然字面上离原文更远,却把原文的内涵译出来了,更忠实于原文,但是从教学的角度来讲,这是一般英语教师不愿意采取的方法,因为除了机械记忆以外,学生看了译文很难再想起原文了,不便于学生理解英、汉两种语言之间的对应关系。又比如:Just before half time, Li Xiaolin made the score 2—1, with a beautiful shot into the top right-hand corner of the boys’ goal.(L62BIII) 这是一个很复杂的长句,带有较多的修饰语,在教学中我们将其译为:就在时间刚刚接近一半时,李晓琳的一个漂亮射门,球从右上角进入了男生队的球门,使比分成了2:1。或者:就在时间刚要到一半儿时,李晓琳的一个漂亮射门使比分成了2:1,球从右上角进入了男生队的球门。对于足球我们是外行,对于足球的有关术语或习惯表达方式我们知之甚少,懂足球的英语教师肯定比我们译的要好得多。 在教材和教参的注释中,有许多精彩的译文可供英语教师借鉴、模仿。如第3册第26课中最后一个长句” He said that he thought more of a person who has one idea and makes it work, than of a person who has a thousand ideas but doesn’t do anything about them.”,课后注释是这样翻译的:他说,比起主意千条而无所作为的人,他更看中一个主意虽不多尔事业有所成的人。如第58课中的一个句子”Herriot knew exactly how they feel when they saw their sick dogs become well again.” 课后注释是这样翻译的:赫里奥特能充分体会到人们看到自己的病狗康复时的心情。这些都是很好的范例。但也有一些值得商榷的地方。 下面提出几个英文句子加以讨论。 1、spirit在教材中共出现了三次:…his spirit of generosity lives on today.(L30BIII) 此处译为“慷慨大方的精神”是准确的。 What kind of spirit do you need to become an inventor?(L26BIII) 此处以为“什么样的精神”或者“何种精神”也是正确的。 They do this for fun and to bring the spirit of Christmas to the people in each house.(L30 BIII) 教参中有段说明:教师可让学生反复诵读该故事,并让学生用自己的话复述,以加深对圣诞精神的理解。教材的编者似乎将the spirit of Christmas 译为“圣诞精神”,这样的翻译似乎可以商榷。该句用了一个介词短语和一个不定式来说明他们此举的目的,将为了去了和带来“圣诞精神”相提并论很不协调,教参的编者可能太局限于本故事的原始意思。为了说明问题,先看看翻译家对Christmasspirit的理解。On Christmas Eve, when we checked into a dingy hotel in Nice, there was no

英语翻译课程学习方法

英语翻译课程学习方法 一、传统教材与新教材的关系从今年始,英汉互译的自学考试将由全国高等教育自学考试 指导委员会统一组织实施和管理。这对统一全国考生的要求,提高翻译实践能力和水平都是件好事。目前,相关的统编教材,由庄绎传所编写的《英汉翻译教程》已出版发行。这本教材采用了与传统教材不一样的编写思路。不再是以词、句为单位进行翻译方法,如直译、意译等方法及词类转换,增词、减词之类的技巧进行学习,而是直接进入篇章,以各种文体的篇章为单位进行练习。这是一种创新,是有助于提高考生实际翻译能力的。因为我们在翻译实践中很少情况只是译词或译句,而是篇章的翻译。所以,这将更接近于我们的工作实际了。但这也会为初学翻译的学生带来一些不利条件,那就是对翻译的基本方法与技巧缺乏认识。所以在新教材的第404 页“有关说明与实施要求”中提到参考书,明确指出由张培基等人编写的《英汉翻译教程》(上海外语教育出版社)一书,以及吕瑞昌等人编写的《汉英翻译教程》(陕西人民出版社)一书仍是重要的参考书,我认为作为初学翻译的同志这两本书是一定要看一看的。当然这两本教材也有其明显的不足,即仅以词、句为单位探讨翻译,而没有进入篇章的层次。我们如果把两种教材结合起来,以老教材为辅,以新教材为主,会有较好的成效。 二、篇章翻译的几个问题首先,凡是一个篇章,就会遇到文体的问题,就是我们必须明确 我们所要译的文章是文学作品还是科学、法律方面的文章,是一篇简介性的文字还是一篇讲演词。因为不同文体的文章在表现形式上是很不一样的,如法律文体有一些法律常用词语,科技也会各自有一些专门术语,应用文有时有严格的格式要求,文学则更为复杂,因为其中对话,描述,心理描写,景物或人物描写又各有不同。议论文句式严谨,语言正式,长句较多,等等,这在遣词用句上都有差异。这本教材在P395页“课程内容与考核目标” 都有粗略的说明。请学员认真看一下,并可结合其他有关参考书丰富其内容,以便有更好的掌握。 其次是语域问题。 所谓“语域”(register)是指具有某种具体用途的语言变体,我们可以从交际领域、交际方式和交际关系把语言分成不同的语域,如从交际双方的社会地位和社会关系来说,英语可以分为冷漠体,正式体,商量体,随便体,亲密体等五种,如果从交际领域来分又可以分成正式体,半正式体,公共核心体,半非正式体,非正式体等。不同的语域语言变体彼此是有区别的,如果用几个简单的例子来说明一下就会看得很清楚。如“汤姆病了,今天没去上学”,如果说Tom didn't go to school ,because he was ill. 这就是一句公共核心语,而如果说Tom was ill ,so he didn't go to school.这就是口语体,即非正式语体,如果说:Being ill ,T om didn't go to school 或Tom didn't go to school because of illness. 都是正式语体(当然这句话的内容用这种句式表达并不合适)。从中我们可以看到用原因从句的表达方式是比较正常的,用so连接的句子显得不怎么正式,用抽象名词和分词短语的形式都显得十分正式。另外有些表示相同意思的不同表示形式也有语域方面的区别。如according to和in accordance with,前者为公共核心语,而后者为正式用语,It is important 和It is of importance相比,也是前者为公共核心语,而后者为正式体。甚至连冠词的用法都可以表示这种区别,The horse is a useful animal;A horse is a useful aninal;Horses are useful animals.第一种用定冠词加单数名词表示类属的是正式用法,而用不定冠词加单数名词表示类属的则为公共核心语,最后一种,复数泛指的类属表示法则为非正式语体。 所以,我们在接触一个篇章时,弄清它的语域情况是十分重要的。因为这将决定我们在翻译时如何选词组句,例如,我们看到下面一个句子:After an hour of climbing,we finally found ourselue's at zhurong Peak,the very apex of Mt ,Hengshan,towering 1,296m
