第一篇:山大成考英语第三册英汉互译
MY Favorite Book
As a student, we have study for many years.During there years, we study Chinese, English, science and so on.In this period, with the improvement of our knowledge, we not only read the books in class but also read
extracurricular after school.In my opinion Dream of the red chamber is the best book I have read.In this book, the great author Cao xueqin his view about love.He had firmly faith in what is the true love and try to tell us that there are different kinds of love, only one kind which should be considered as True Love.In a dream, and under mythical circumstances, the main character of the novel, Jia baoyu, met the Fairy Disenchantment in the Land of Illusions.She showed him three “registers” each containing the names and “the happenings in life” of 12 girls in his clan.Each girl represents a kind of love.From the stories which are unfolding in the novel, the reader should know the characteristics of the different kinds of love, and should be able to distinguish True Love from the other kinds.True love is acceptance, committal, mutual and without any post
conditions.The love between Lin daiyu and Jia baoyu is considered to be True Love.Just saying or hearing I love you is not good enough because talk is cheap.Action in mutual commitment is essential, as we can see in the novel.We always have dreams.What's ours dream? Do you know what you exactly want? And do you work hard for it.In this book, you can taste the feeling of the author about his strong will.In his words, you can find the charm of Chinese.It is not a book, but a precious deposits.You can get a lot from it.But unfortunately, the novel was never “completed” to such a state.On the other hand, maybe, it is another kind of beauty of the book.If you have not read this book yet, just go and read it.You will love it.My Middle School Teacher
In my middle school I had many good teachers, but Mr.Zhang was the one I partic ularly liked and respected.He was a middle-aged intellectual who lived a simple and hard working life but was always optimistic and spared no effort in teaching us.He was a scholar of Chinese literature and history.We felt that he knew everything in this field.His knowledge and eloquence, as well as his klndness, made his lectures so attrative and touching that we were reluctant to hear the bell ringing to dismiss the class.One lesson he gave us that I cannot forget concerned some quotations from a pupil of Confucius, who always felt at ease in spite of his life of abject poverty.In his lecture, Mr.Zhang revealed his true feelings in devoting himself to teaching all his life.This deeply moved us all.I respect Mr.Zhang and should learn from his noble spirit and do my best to study hard for our great socialist country.

第四篇:研究生英语演讲稿英汉互译
正如前面的同学所讲,VR非常有趣,也有很多优点,但是凡事发明都有利和弊。例如汽车的发明,汽车可以代替走路并且带着我们很方便的从一地到另一地,但是我们的环境却在变糟糕,温室效应在加重。因此,VR也会带来不好的一面,例如有可能会对服务、旅游行业有一定的冲击,人们可以获得各种娱乐游戏经验看到世界各地的美丽风景,所以就有可能减少实际娱乐游戏的需要甚至不要,就不用花钱去景区,就不用去参加人挤人的旅游。因此很多游乐设施就可能荒废,生产娱乐设施的工人有可能失业。这是一个生态循环,一环扣一环,所以我们该如何正确的认识VR技术带给我们的改变,是值得我们去思考的。
As mentioned in front of students, VR technology is very interesting, and also has a lot of advantages, but every invention has advantages and disadvantages.For example, the invention of the car, the car can be used instead of walking and take us very easily from one place to another, but our environment is getting worse, the greenhouse effect is worse.Therefore, VR will also bring bad side, for example, may have some impact on the service industry and tourism, people can get all kinds of games and entertainment experience to see the beautiful scenery in the world, so there may reduce actual entertainment games don't even would not use money to the scenic area, there is no need to go to the crowded tourist.So many recreational facilities may be abandoned, the production of recreational facilities workers may be unemployed.To give another example, child can play games through the VR technology, they can imagine themselves as a flying super hero, like iron man, but in fact, they are nothing but a utopian child.This is not good for children’s learning, they will forget what they should do in real word, the learning is what they should do.This is an ecological cycle, a ring, so we should know how to understand and use the VR technology to bring us change, is worth us to think.As in front of classmates, VR is interesting, has many advantages, but every kind of thing was invented had the pros and cons.Such as the invention of the car, the car can instead of walking and take us easily from one place to another, but our environment is getting worse, the greenhouse effect worse.VR, therefore, also can bring bad side.For example, is likely to service, tourism industry has a certain impact, people can get all kinds of entertainment experience to see the beautiful scenery all over the world, so it is possible to reduce the actual entertainment game even don't need, need not spend money to the scenic spot, crowded don't go to travel.So many amusement facilities may waste, the production of entertainment facilities may be unemployed workers.This is an ecological cycle, a ring by ring, so how can we use VR technology in a right way, is worth us to think.作文号:10
题目:The bad side of VR technology As mentioned in front of students, VR technology is very interesting, and also has many advantages, but every invention has advantages and disadvantages.For example, the invention of the car, the car can be used instead of walking and take us very easily from one place to another, but our environment is getting worse, the greenhouse effect is worse.Therefore, VR will also bring bad side, for example, may have some impact on the service industry and tourism, people can get all kinds of games and entertainment experience to see the beautiful scenery in the world, so there may reduce the number of trips and even would not use money to go to the scenic area, there is no need to go to the crowded tourist.So many recreational facilities may be abandoned, the product of recreational facilities workers may be unemployed.To give another example, child can play games through the VR technology, they can imagine themselves as a flying super hero like iron man, but in fact, they are nothing but an utopian child.This is not good for children's learning, they will forget what they should do in the actual world but the learning is what they should do.This is an ecological cycle and each link will affect each other.So we should know how to understand and use the VR technology in a right way, is worthy of our thinking.
第五篇:英汉词汇互译
英汉词汇互译的若干方法
(一)准确理解词义
1.根据上下文辨词义。
2.论褒贬,即要注意同义词之间有不同的语体色彩、使用范围及程度。
任何语言都有语体之分,有高雅的、通俗的、粗野 的,还有俚语、公文用语及术语等。文学作品中,作家通过不同的语体来刻画人物的性格特征,更是常用的方法。翻译时,必须审其雅俗,量其轻重,这样,才能恰如其分地表达原文的精神。
(1)词义有轻重的不同
例如表示“打破”的词
break是最一般的用语,意思是经打击或施加压力而破碎。
crack是出现了裂缝,但还没有变成碎片。
crush是从外面用力往内或从上往下而压碎。
demolish是破坏、铲平或削平(如土堆、建筑物、城堡等)。
destroy是完全摧毁,使之无法复原。
shatter是突然使一物体粉碎。
smash旧指由于突如其来的一阵暴力带一声响而彻底粉碎。
又如表示“闪光”的词
shine照耀;指光的稳定发射。
glitter闪光;指光的不稳定发射。
glare耀眼;表示光的最强度。
sparkle闪烁;指发射微细的光度。
(2)词义有范围大小和侧重面的不同
在一定上下文中,在agriculture,farming,cultivation,agronomy四个词中:griculture指农业科学、农业技术、整个农业生产过程,所包含的范围最广。farming指农业的实践。cultivation指农业物的栽培过程。agronomy指把科学原理运用到农业耕作中去的实践。
又如在empty,vacant,hollow这组同义词中,它们各自有不同的形容对象和强调的内容:
empty可以用来形容house,room,cup,box,stomach,head,words等词,表示“空的,一无所有。”
vacant可以用来形容position,room,house,seat等词表示“没有人占用的,空缺的。”hollow可以和tree,voice,sound,cheeks等词连用,表示“空洞的,虚的,不实的,下陷的。”
(3)词义有感情色彩(如憎恶、蔑视、讽刺、诅咒、尊敬、亲昵等等)和语体色彩(如庄严、高雅、古朴、俚语、方言词语、公文用语、委婉词等等)的不同。如“死”就有许多委婉的说法:
to expire 逝世
to pass away 与世长辞
to close(end)one's day 寿终
to breathe one's last 断气
to go west 归西天
to pay the debt of nature 了结尘缘
to depart to the world of shadows 命归黄泉
to give up the ghost 见阎王
to kick the bucket蹬腿You can kick everything but you can not kick the bucket.to kick up one's heels 蹬腿
又如“怀孕”也有许多委婉的说法:
She is having a baby.She is expecting.She is in the family way.She is knitting little booties.She is in a delicate condition.She is in an interesting condition.又如“警察”:
policeman 正式用语
cop 美国口语
bobby 英国口语
nab 美国俚语
3.看搭配。任何一种语言,在长期使用的过程中,会形成一种固定的词组或常见的搭配。这些比较固定的说法,有时可以译成另一种语言,有时则不行。翻译时,必须注意英汉两种语言中词的不同搭配。
以kill为例:
He killed the man.他杀死了那个人。
He killed his chances of success.他断送了成功的机会。
He killed the motion when it came from the committe e.他否决了委员会提出来的动议。
He killed three bottles of whisky in a week.他一周内喝光了三瓶威士忌。
kill the peace 扼杀和平
kill the promise 取消诺言
kill a marriage 解除婚约
还要注意英汉定语与名词的搭配不同:
heavy crops 丰收
heavy news 令人悲痛的消息
heavy road 泥泞的路
heavy sea 波涛汹涌的海洋
heavy heart 忧伤的心
heavy reader 沉闷冗长的读物
又如:
a broken man 一个绝望的人
a broken soldier 一个残废军人
a broken promise 背弃的诺言
a broken spirit 消沉的意志
broken money 零钱
国际著名品牌趣译
许多国际著名品牌源于很平凡的名字,译为中文必须有巧思。
如果把营销比喻成一场战役,那么成功的品牌名称就像一面不倒的军旗。国际品牌在全球范围内营销,必然要跨越种种文化障碍,如语言差异、消费习惯差异、宗教差异等。把品牌译为中文必须有巧思。
由于西方国家的文化比较相似,所以某一个国家的品牌比较容易为其他国家所接受。中华文化与西方文化差异较大,因此,国外品牌要打入华人市场,必须慎重考虑命名问题。商品经济现象的复杂,使西方品牌名称的翻译超越了语言学概念,而上升到文化心理和市场重新定位层面。
麦当劳:蕴含多层意义,比如麦当劳,英文名称是“McDonald’s”,它是店主人名字的所有格形成。西方人习惯以姓氏给公司命名,像爱迪生公司、华尔特·迪斯尼公司、福特公司。但是华人通常喜欢以喜庆、兴隆、吉祥、新颖的词汇给店铺命名,如“百盛”、“天润发”、“好来顺”、“全聚德”、“喜来登”。McDonald是个小人物,他比不上爱迪生,人家是世界闻名的大科学家,也不如迪斯尼,因为迪斯尼成了“卡通世界”的代名词,所以如果老老实实地把“McDonald’s”译成“麦克唐纳的店”,就过于平淡,而“麦当劳”就非常成功:
一,大致保留了原发音;
二,体现了食品店的性质;
三,蕴涵着“要吃麦就应当劳动”的教育意义;
四,风格既“中”又“洋”,符合华人的口味。
可口可乐:绝妙之译,众所周知,“可口可乐”就是“CocaCola”,但是却很少有人追问一句:那是什么意思?原来Coca和Cola是两种植物的名字,音译为古柯树和可乐树,古柯树的叶子和可乐树的籽是该饮品的原材料,古柯叶里面含有古柯碱,也叫可卡因(有时用做局总麻醉药,尤其用于眼睛、鼻子或喉咙,还因其兴奋性和刺激性而广泛用做毒品)。这样枯燥乏味甚至有点可怕的名字居然被翻译成“可口可乐”,真是CocaCola公司的化腐朽为神奇。“可口可乐”译名的成功之处在于:
一,保留了原文押头韵的响亮发音;
二,完全抛弃了原文的意思,而是从喝饮料的感受和好处上打攻心战,手段高明;
三,这种饮品的味道并非人人喜欢,很多人甚至觉得它像中药,但它却自称“可口”,而且喝了以后还让人开心。善于进行自我表扬,讨好大众。
上述两例是保留原品牌名称发音,而改变原意的成功范例。其他如中国译为“奔驰”,新马译为“马赛地”的名牌汽车,原文“MercedesBenz”是该汽车公司老板爱女的名字,译为“奔驰”是删除了复杂的Mercedes,简洁而响亮。
“Ikea”译为“宜家”是高招,再如“Ikea”家具品牌,即便在瑞典也很少有人知道它的意思,是聪明的中译者赋予它“宜家”这美好的含义。实际上,Ikea是该品牌的创始人IngvarKamprad和他的农场名Elmtaryd及村庄名Agunnaryd的词首字母组合。
有的品牌名称只进行音译,如“麦斯威尔”咖啡,仅仅是“Maxwell”的发音而已。由于它的诉求对象是白领阶层,尤其是“外向型”白领,因此这个名字是成功的。但如果想让广大华人买账,就不如“雀巢”。在雀巢咖啡刚进入中国大陆时,听村里的农民议论:“雀巢”咖啡就是“鸟窝”咖啡。即使没文化的人也对它产生兴趣,可见名称的戏剧性效果非常有利于提高品牌的知名度。
名牌手机“诺基亚”,芬兰文原名“Nokia”,是厂子所在小镇的名字,很显然,译文比原文更富有高科技感,好像还有点“承诺亚洲”的味道。
“福士伟根”跟希特勒有关,有的品牌名称只进行意译。如“福士伟根”(中国称“大众汽车”),德文原名“Volkswagen”,Vokls的意思是人民大众,Wagen是汽车。
关于“福士伟根”,还有一段鲜为人知的来历:19世纪二三十年代,汽车非常昂贵,只属于少数富人。希特勒上台后,宣称要为全体劳动大众制造汽车,汽车的牌子就叫“Volkswagen”,他号召人们每月省下一些钱,建立“汽车存款”,若干年后家家有汽车。可是不久战争爆发,汽车厂忙着造战争机器去了。然而战后大众汽车的品牌名称却保留了下来。
还有一类是以简称进行跨国界统一传播,比如慕尼黑的一家汽车厂,德文全称是BayerischeMotorenWerke(拜耶里奇飞机引擎生产厂),简称为BMW,后来它不仅生产飞机发动机,还扩展到越野车、摩托单车、高级轿车。现在没有人关心BMW到底是什么意思,BMW三个字母围绕的蓝白徽标,已成为成功和信誉的标志。其中文名称“宝马”是多么浪漫、简洁、贴切。
再如,Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company(明尼苏达矿业及制造公司),就是我们熟知的3M公司。西方人对品牌名称的要求比较单纯:一,简单易记;二不重复;三,在别国语言里不会产生误解,对宗教信仰不要有侮辱性含义。为安全起见,有些厂家就干脆造一个新词,如康柏公司“Compaq”(美国电脑生产商)来源于Compact(电脑术语,意思是密集的、压紧的),把词尾变成q,就构成一个新词,它很容易使人联想到源词,使公司的行业特征非常明显。
