大学英语四级翻译中的四种词

摘要:大学英语四级翻译题由原来的完成句子改为段落翻译,对学生提出了新的挑战。要做好段落翻译,首先应该重视处理好动词、模糊词、衔接词、关键词四种词语的翻译。尤其是动词和衔接词,前者决定了句子的结构,后者决定了整段行文的逻辑性。

关键词:大学英语四级翻译动词模糊词衔接词关键词

从2013年12月开始,大学英语四级考试中的翻译题进行了改革,将原来5个句子的翻译(翻译句子部分内容)改为短文翻译。新的题型“测试学生把汉语所承载的信息用英语表达出来的能力”,内容涉及到中国的历史、文化、经济、社会发展等,长度为140~160个汉字。虽然新的题型不过仍然是几句话(最典型的为4句话,恰好体现出起承转合的行文逻辑),但从句子到段落,内涵的增加、理解的深化导致翻译难度的增加则是显然的。如何做好新的翻译题,这成为许多老师和同学焦虑的问题。笔者在一定的教学实践基础之上,结合英汉语言的差异,认为要做好段落翻译,可以从处理好这四种词语的翻译做起:动词、模糊词、衔接词、关键词。

下面以四级考试翻译样题为例,具体阐述做好翻译题与处理这四种词语的关系。

大学英语四级考试翻译样题:

世界上拥有书法(calligraphy)艺术的民族屈指可数。其中,唯有中国书法具有最悠久的历史,传播得最为广泛,同民族文化保持着密切的关系。中国书法看似十分简单,仿佛凡是能使用毛笔在宣纸(Xuan paper)上写字的人似乎就成了书法家,其实不然。书法作为一种艺术,是玄妙而精深的,因此能够真正走进书法艺术境界的(artistic realm)的书法家并不多。

一、动词――句式处理的关键

段落翻译的基本单位仍然是句子。句子翻译的基础是句子的结构处理,而一个汉语原句到底是翻译为英语的简单句、并列句,还是复合句,在基本保持原意允许多种译法存在的前提下,则取决于对动词的选择。

原题第一句应该算是较为简单的起始句,但是,也存在句式的选择:句子的主谓结构应该是nations are few(或there are few nations)呢?还是few nations have calligraphy?若为前者,则有以下译文:

In the world, nations who have calligraphy as a form of art (或 the art of calligraphy ) are very few (或为避免头重脚轻多用词语译为 only a few to

count )

In the world, nations having calligraphy as a form of art are only a few to count.

In the world, there are few nations who have calligraphy as a from of art.

若为后者,则有:

Few nations in the world have calligraphy as a form of art.

上述多种翻译产生的起因首先是对英译句子谓语动词的选择(是“有”还是“屈指可数”?)。若将其中一个作为谓语动词(“有”的翻译也有两种句式的选择),则另一个要么成为从句谓语要么成为非谓语动词;若将“屈指可数”译为形容词作定语,逆汉语原句语序翻译,如最后一种译法,则句子结构较为简单紧凑。

若说第一句翻译较为简单,那么第二句就比较难了。难处表面上是句子更长,实践层面则是句子结构组织的难度。第二句的动词为“具有、传播、保持”。一句含有三个动词的汉语译为英文,如果不拆分,其结构方式大概有这三种类型:

简单句:(1)三个动词为并列谓语;(2)其中两个作并列的谓语动词,另外一个作非谓语动词(或者转化为名词或其他词);(3)其中一个作为谓语动词,其他两个作非谓

语动词(或者转化为名词或其他词)。

并列句:(4)三个均作谓语动词,但是为并列关系;(5)三个动词所在的小句子,两个为并列关系,第三个从属于前两者中某一个,为从句的谓语动词或者非谓语动词,整体为含有从句的并列句;(6)三个动词均作谓语动词,其中一个为一个小句子的单独谓语,另两个为另一个小句子的并列谓语,两个小句子为并列关系。

复合句:(7)其中一个动词为主句的谓语动词,另外两个作从句的谓语动词(为并列谓语,或者8其中一个又从属于另一个,或者又9均为从属于主句的从句)。即从理论上来说,不考虑一词多译的变化,仅从结构考虑就至少有八种译法(当然考虑到动词之间的关系、具体的语境,有些句式是不宜选择的)。试举其中几种译法为例:

Among them,Chinese calligraphy has the longest history, becomes the most popular among its people,and maintains a close relationship with the national cultural development.(1)

Among them, Chinese calligraphy has the longest history, being the most popular among its people and maintaining a close relationship with the national cultural development.(2)

In them,with the longest history,only Chinese

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。

2020年大学英语四级翻译试题及答案

2020年大学英语四级翻译试题及答案 首先,我们看一下大纲里面对四级翻译的要求。四级翻译要求“考生在30分钟内将题材熟悉、语言难度较低的汉语段落译成英语。内容涉及中国的文化、历史及社会发展,长度为140-160个汉字,分值比例为15%。译文基本准确地表达原文意思,语言通顺,句式和用词较为恰当,能运用基本的翻译策略。” 英语四级和英语六级很大的不同点是,英语六级大纲会把“语言难度较低”改成中等难度,这也是老师命题时的不同点。“内容涉及中国文化、历史、社会发展”,我们同学在复习四级翻译的时候,只需要找到跟一个国家、一个对象相关的题材就可以了,那就是“中国”。它里面可能涉及到美国、澳大利亚、英国,但是我们最终篇章主体一定是跟中国相关的。不管考哪个话题,话题终归就两个大类,一是文化历史类,二是社会发展类。在这两个大类之下,我们又会考到不同的题,这是我们同学分析四六级翻译时要注意的,你们应该有意识地积累一些,比如自行车、交通工具、移动支付、共享单车等等跟社会时事相关的单词。我们只需要把意思翻译到位就可以了,这是四级题型的特点。 目前了解到今天的篇章,一是与手机相关,人越来越离不开手机;二是移动支付,移动支付便捷点在什么地方,给我们生活带来什么变化,可能会和其他支付方式对比,现金这个词你要会写,信用卡也要会写。我们复习翻译的时候要把常见的话题词汇熟悉一下。 今天的篇章难度和跟6月份考交通工具持平,难度波动不大,话题越来越紧跟时事热点,比如智能手机、移动支付、还有去年的交通。我们现在翻译考试越来越趋向于写作。在写作过程中,开头描述一个现实情况的时候,我们会用到一些模板句,“随着科技的发展,人工智能的发展,我们的生活变得怎么样”,现在我们四六级翻译考试也呈现出类似中文的特点,这是后期同学复习过程中需要掌握的问题。
