第二章 体育术语的翻译

Chapter Two Translation of Sports Terminology Modern competitive sport is really a large compass of games, each of which witness hundreds of year’s growth from rough and a raw entertainment into a complex discipline. Words dedicated into the work of description of these games were gradually pooled into a very different group away from general English vocabulary. This special semantic stock is defined as Sports Terminology. These are the words and expression denotes specific activity in the scope of sports, ranging from names of the games to terms designating techniques of a sport. Thanks to compilers of many dictionaries, these vocabularies have been grooved as treasure which spares readers lots of trouble and toil. Hence, it is not a motive here to exhaust words of this kind and give each a perfect place, a work which has been done by those compilers. What needed to put up right here is several principles which underlies the translation practice of sports terms. ⅠThe ways by which Sports Terminology shape its realm. Through two ways, the Sports Terms take in, maintain and even grow its pool. One method is to recruit words from general English. The transfer from a general word into a specialized one makes many English words polysemous. Like other ESP, words from this source

李娜的英文介绍

Li Na (tennis) This is a Chinese name; the family name is Li. Li Na (Chinese: 李娜; pinyin: Lǐ Nà; born February 26, 1982) is a Chinese professional tennis player. As of September 2013, Li has won 7WTA and 19 ITF singles titles. Li rose to prominence after she won the2011 French Open singles title, making her the first and only Grand Slam singles champion from an Asian country. Prior to this Li had already become the first player representing an Asian country to appear in a Grand Slam singles final, a milestone she achieved at the2011 Australian Open. She was also the runner-up at the 2013 Australian Open, three times a quarter-finalist at Wimbledon and a semi-finalist at the 2013 US Open. Her career-high singles ranking is World No. 3 (achieved on October 28, 2013) and is currently the World No. 3 and Chinese No. 1 (out of 4 in the top-100).[1] Personal life[edit] Li Na was born on February 26, 1982, in Wuhan, Hubei, China. Her father Li Shengpeng (李盛鹏) was a professional badminton player and later worked as a sales rep for a Wuhan based company. He died from a rare cardiovascular disease when Li Na was 14.[2] At age six, Li Na started playing badminton, following her father's footsteps. Just before she turned eight, Li made the transition from badminton to tennis when she and her parents were convinced by coach Xia Xiyao of the Wuhan youth tennis club that this would be the right career move for her.[3] Li joined China's National Tennis Team in 1997. In the following year, Li, sponsored by Nike, went to John Newcombe Academy in Texas to study tennis.[4] She studied there for 10 months and returned to China. Li turned professional in 1999 at age sixteen. At the end of 2002, Li left the national tennis team to study part-time at Huazhong University of Science and Technology, where she completed her bachelor's degree in journalism in 2009. The Chinese media cited various reasons for this. Some reported that the relationship between her and her teammate, future husband Jiang Shan (姜山), was opposed by the national team's management,[5] some reported that her coach Yu Liqiao (余丽桥) was too strict and demanding,[6]while other reports claimed that her request for a personal coach did not go through.[7] However, Li returned to the national team in 2004. Jiang Shan married Li on January 27, 2006 and became her personal coach. Li quit the national team[8] as well as the state-run sports system in 2008 under an experimental reform policy for tennis players. This change was called "Fly Alone" (单飞) by Chinese media.[9] As a result, Li had the freedom to pick her own coaching staff but she would be responsible for the cost of travel, training and coaching. She could keep more of her winnings,[10] with only 8 to 12 percent of her winnings go to the Chinese Tennis Association as opposed to 65 percent previously.[11]

网球李娜英文文章

Like most of China, Li Na started her sporting life with a badminton racquet in her hand. But when she was eight, her coach noticed she was using the racquet more like a tennis player, and a big decision was made. When she got home she announced a switch, which prompted her shocked mother to ask: "What's tennis?" Twenty years on, the conversion has been vindicated. Tonight, the feisty 28-year-old, who has a red rose over a love heart tattooed on her chest, will stride on to Rod Laver Arena to compete in the women's final against Kim Clijsters of Belgium, in a bid to be crowned the Australian Open champion. Li is the first Chinese national to make a grand slam singles final. But, as she said with typical self-deprecation, even if she wins tonight, most Chinese people would forget about it in a month. About 14 million people play tennis in China, just 1 per cent of the population. But Li may be overly modest. Already the Chinese media has hailed her a sporting heroine and compared her to their biggest stars, NBA basketballer Yao Ming and Olympic gold medal hurdler Liu Xiang. And the Asian Tennis Federation has seized on Li's success as a boost for Asia's bid to host a grand slam tournament, raising the possibility of a fifth major or that the Australian Open, already billed as the grand slam of the Asia-Pacific, could be reassigned to Asia. Li's relationship with the Chinese tennis establishment has been occasionally strained. In 2002 she was so disillusioned by the Chinese tennis system she dropped out for two years to study journalism at university.
