為了幫助廣大考生系統(tǒng)的復(fù)習(xí)2013翻譯資格考試,更好的掌握翻譯資格考試教材的重點(diǎn)內(nèi)容,小編特編輯了翻譯資格考試培訓(xùn)模擬試題,希望對(duì)您此次參加考試有所幫助!
翻譯段落:
沒有一個(gè)人將小草叫“大力士”,但是它的力量之大,的確是世所罕見。這種力,是一般人看不見的生命力,只要生命存在,這種力就要顯現(xiàn),上面的石塊,絲毫不足以阻擋,因?yàn)樗且环N“長(zhǎng)期抗戰(zhàn)”的力,有彈性,能屈能伸的力,有韌性,不大目的不止的力。種子不落在肥土而落在瓦礫中,有生命力的種子決不會(huì)悲觀和嘆氣,因?yàn)橛辛俗枇Σ庞心ゾ?。生命開始的一瞬間就帶了斗爭(zhēng)來的草,才是堅(jiān)韌的草,也只有這種草才可以傲然地對(duì)那些玻璃棚中養(yǎng)育著的盆花哄笑。
參考譯文:
Though the little grass has never been said to be Herculean, the power it shows is matchless in the world. It is an invisible force of life. So long as there is life, the force will show itself. The rock above it is not heavy enough to prevent the seed from growing, because it is a force that keeps growing over a period of time, because it is an elastic force that can shrink and expand, because it is a tenacious force that will not stop growing until it is grown.The seed does not choose to fall on fertile land but in debris, instead. The seed with life is never pessimistic or sad, for it has undergone resistance and pressure. The grass that begins to fight its way out right after its birth is strong and tenacious, and only that grass has the right to smile with pride at the potted plants in glassed green houses.
翻譯點(diǎn)評(píng):
Herculean:大力神,古希臘神話人物,如果想不到的話可以用比較口語的beefcake或者masculined guy。不過大家還是要注意,多積累一些這樣的文化、文學(xué)類知識(shí)儲(chǔ)備,以便在翻譯時(shí)能做到信手拈來,傳神出彩。
matchless一句:這句話的翻譯使用了逆向思維,這在英語中很常見,比如:
這事決不可能是他干的。
應(yīng)譯成He is the last person to do such a thing.
elastic force:彈力,不會(huì)的同學(xué)亦可譯成spring force/bounce,實(shí)在不會(huì),可以換成strength,當(dāng)然這就要失分了。
tenacious:持久的,也可換成ever-lasting或者long-lasting。一般像這樣簡(jiǎn)單的合成詞在翻譯中往往能派上大用場(chǎng)。
debris:注意,末尾的s是不發(fā)音的,但是拼寫的時(shí)候千萬不要漏掉。
potted plants:盆栽。一些普通的日常生活中的名詞,大家可能會(huì)忽略,翻譯中遇到時(shí)才恍然發(fā)現(xiàn)不會(huì)表達(dá)。這一類詞語要多加注意,不要只將注意力集中在專業(yè)名詞上面。
