翻译考试的内容研究生英语入学考试中的翻译项目旨在通过翻译测试考生正确理解英文原文的能力及汉语的表达能力。此项测试方法是通过阅读一篇难度适中的短文（题材不限，长度约400字上下），翻译其中较为复杂的5个句子。翻译共5题，每题2分，满分为10分；每题划分为若干个给分段，每一分段的分值为0.5或1。对考生的要求是对原文理解正确，译文表达清楚准确，对汉语不作过高要求。3一

6（2）从语法结构来讲，侧重考查若干短语，如动词短语，分词短语（形容词短语），不定式短语以及少量较难的介词短语。此外，语法结构及逻辑关系比较复杂,有时不做些语法分析和逻辑推理就理不出头绪。还有若干代词，如it,they，that,this,one等，它们必须要根据上下文才能确定其词义所指。以及一些较难的从句，如what从句,定语句，as从句等等。7（2）从语法结构来讲，侧重考查若干短语，如动词短语，分词短语（3）从词汇来讲，难度增大了，侧重考查一词多义，一词转义，也就是说，所考词汇，如果照字面直译多半会出差错，必须通过上下文进行词义引伸，理解某一词在具体场合的特定含义，才能做出正确的译文，而死抠词字、句序、语态往往会表达不通顺。8（3）从词汇来讲，难度增大了，侧重考查一词多义，一词转义，也第一部分

考研翻译的做题思路与步骤1.粗略阅读原文，搞清作者意2.理清考题结构，把握句式重心。在粗读一遍，大致搞清原文的主旨大意的基础上，逐句处理5个句子。读第二遍时，重点则应放在这五个句子上，确定句子的意思。132.理清考题结构，把握句式重心。133.分清主次关系，注意”左邻右舍”。从它们与全文的关系上，特别是从前后句即它们的中寻找有用的信息，确定代词的确切含义，句子中出现的”超纲词”的词义也很有可能从上下文中搞清楚。4.仔细检查译文，确保准确无误。143.分清主次关系，注意”左邻右舍”。从它们与全文的关系上，15翻译技巧和方法15I.分清主从把握结构分清主从是理清原文结构，拟出译文整体框架的关键，而辨析词义是确保译文准确的前提。16I.分清主从

一般来说，翻译时不应对原文的内容随意增减。不过，由于英汉两种语言文字之间所存在的悬殊差异，在实际翻译过程中很难做到词字上的完全对应。一般情况是为意义完整而增译，46IV.适当增添 清楚明了46增词法的常用情况1增添原文语法所省略的词语1)Matter can be changed into energy,and energy into matter.物质可以转化为能，能也可以转化为物质。47增词法的常用情况1增添原文语法所省略的词语472 增添必要的连接成分增加连词英语中的并列连词和从属连词大都是以单个单词出现，而汉语中的联合连词和偏正连词大都是成对出现。因此，在将英语译成汉语时，应将汉语的连词补充完整。如:if，如果，那么because因为，所以;although虽然，但是;unless除非，否则1)Heated,water will change into vapor.水如受热，就会汽化。482 增添必要的连接成分增加连词483用增词法表达出原文的复数概念和数量词英语中没有量词，而汉语表达中的量词却是不可缺少的1)He stretched his legs which were scattered with scars.他伸出双腿，露出腿上的道道伤痕。493用增词法表达出原文的复数概念和数量词492）The

conclusion.科学家经常设法否定自己的假设，推翻自己的理论，并放弃自己的结论。547修辞或连贯增词54V.词语省略 言简意赅一般来说，汉语较英语简练，因此，许多在原文中必不可少的词语要是原原本本地译成汉语，就会成为不必要的冗词，译文会显得十分累赘。省略法在英汉翻译中使用得非常广泛，其主要目的是删去一些可有可无、不符合译文习惯表达法的词语。55V.词语省略 言简意赅55In the 1880s the United States was a land sharply divided between the immensely wealthy and the poor.在19世纪80年代，美国是一个巨富与赤贫两极严重分化的国家。56In the 1880s the United States省略技巧的常用情况1代词的省略 He put his hands into his

net.海洋里鱼鳖成群，张网可得。（宾语转为主语）726)Thousands of terrified watcVII.结构调整 顺理成章结构调整是英汉互译中的又一常用翻译技巧。由于英汉不同的造句结构和表达习惯，英语中有些句子的词序、语序在译成汉语时，应加以调整，使其符合汉语的表达习惯。73VII.结构调整 顺理成章73Additional social stresses may also occur because of the population explosion or problems arising from mass migration movements-themselves made relatively easy nowadays by modern means of transport.（2000）由于人口的猛增或大量人口流动（现代交通工具使这种方式相对容易）造成的种种问题也会对社会造成新压力。74Additional social stresses may.英译汉结构调整的常用方法技巧1顺序法;即按原文的句子顺序翻译。1)It was strange that a day of war was a day we stood still.We couldnt

约定俗成英语中的被动语态使用极为广泛The behavioral sciences have been slow to change partly because the explanatory items often seem to be directly observed and partly because other kinds of explanations have been hard to find.（2002）行为科学之所以发展缓慢，部分原因是用来解释行为的依据似乎往往是直接观察到的，部分原因是其他的解释方式一直难以找到80The behavioral sciences have b 翻译被动语态的常用方法技巧汉语中的被动结构不那么常用，因为从习惯上讲，汉语中的“被”、“遭”、“受”、“挨”等字眼总是给人以不那么舒服的感觉，因此在英汉翻译时，我们应尽量将被动语态化为主动结构81 翻译被动语态的常用方法技巧汉语中的被动结构不那么常用，因为1将英语被动直接转为汉语的主动1）Every moment of every day,energy is being transformed from one form into another.每时每刻，能量都在由一种形式变为另一种形式。（保持原主语不变）2）The picture was painted by Professor Smith.这幅画是史密斯教授画的。（转换为系表结构）821将英语被动直接转为汉语的主动822将英语被动转为汉语的无主句1)The unpleasant noise must be immediately put an end to.必须立即终止这种的噪音。2)Attention has been paid to the new measures to prevent corrosion.已经注意到采取防腐新措施。832将英语被动转为汉语的无主句833 英语被动语态保持不变英语被动语态的翻译，在必要的时候（尤其是用以表达令人不快的事件）也可以译作汉语的被动结构，分别译作“被”、“给”、“遭”、“受”、“让”、“为所”等字眼。1)Any minute we would surely be spotted by enemy planes flying in and out of the airfield.我们随时都会被出入机场的敌机发现。2)At the end of the month he was fired for incompetence.月底，他因自己无能而给解雇了。843 英语被动语态保持不变844英语被动语态用意译法表达 英语被动语态的谓语都是及物动词，有时候汉语中没有类似的表达法。在这种情况下，就只能根据原文的意思进行意译。1)The village is populated by about 13,000 farmers.这个村子里住着大约13,000农民。2)Most trees are denuded of leaves in winter.大多数树木冬天要落叶。854英语被动语态用意译法表达 85IX.正反交替 相得益彰英语中的否定按语言学家们的划分大致上有4类：完全否定（带no的词语，如nothing,none等）、半否定（hardly,scarcely等）、部分否定（not all,not every等）及带否定意义的词语（fail,without等），翻译时一般情况下可以对号入座。不过也并非见到yes便是“是”，no便是“不”，有很多情况需要根据具体问题酌情处理，86IX.正反交替 相得益彰86Until these issues are resolved,a technology of behavior will continue to be rejected,and with it possibly the only way to solve our problems.（2002）字面翻译：直到这些问题被解决，研究行为的技术手段就会继续被排斥，解决问题的唯一方式可能也随之继续受到排斥。（如果）这些问题得不到解决，研究行为的技术手段就会继续受到排斥，解决问题的唯一方式可能也随之继续受到排斥。（正说反译）87Until these issues are resolve英译汉的正反交替的一般处理方法1.英语为肯定式，汉语译作否定式1)It was beyond his power to sign such a contract.(prep.)他无权签订这种合同。(介词beyond由“超过”之意转译为“无”)2)Time is what we want most,but what,alas,many use
