正确答案:()
解析:Referred to as "China"s national treasure", panda is an animal unique to China. With a black and white coat as well as a fat body, it is a gentle and lovely animal. Pandas live mainly in the southwest part of China, over 80% of them living in Sichuan Province. They are accustomed to living in warm and wet environment. Bamboo is their favorite food. Because of low birth rate and high requirement for living environment, the number of pandas is declining. Having realized the seriousness of the problem, Chinese government has made a lot of efforts to protect the .endangered species. 1.第1句的前半句可使用过去分词短语Referred to as作状语,置于句首;“中国特有的”可译为unique to China。
2.在翻译第2句时,可把大熊猫的外貌特征“外表黑白相间,体型肥胖”用介词短语With a…coat as well as…body来表达;“大熊猫是温顺可爱的动物”则视为主句,从而避免出现三个孤立的并列英语短句。
3.在第3句中,“80%上分布于四川境内”可译为独立主格结构over 80%of them living in Sichuan Province,对该句的前半句进行补充说明。
4.“(它们)喜欢吃竹类”可考虑译成一个独立的句子,理解为“它们最喜欢的食物是竹类”,用

bamboo作主语可起到强调作用。
5.“由于生育率低,……要求又相当高”可考虑把原因译为两个并列的名词性短语low birth rate和high requirement。用Because of引出这两个名词性短语。
6.最后一句是个因果关系句,可考虑把前半句的“因”译为现在分词短语,置于句首,在句中充当状语;而把后半句的“果”译作主句。“来保护这一濒危物种”可译为动词不定式短语,作定语修饰“努力(efforts)”。

下午茶越南特产

中国饮茶的传统可以追溯到公元前3000多年,但“下午茶”的概念却是到 17世纪中叶 (the mid 17th century)才在英国出现的。当时那里时兴的晚餐时间是晚上8点,所以一位 公爵夫人 (Duchess)养成了在下午4点约朋友吃糕点的习惯。很快下午茶成为当时的社会潮流。随着东西方文化交流的加深,这个英国传统逐渐进入中国。如今,下午茶在国内日渐流行起来,尤其是在广东和福建地区。

正确答案:()
解析:Although the tradition of drinking tea dates back to more than 3,000 B.C. in China, it was not until the mid 17th century in the UK that appeared the concept of "afternoon tea". The dinner time then was popularly late at 8 pm, so a Duchess developed a habit of inviting friends to enjoy some cakes at 4 pm in the afternoon. Quickly, afternoon tea became a fashionable social event. With the cultural exchanges between the east and the west deepening, this British tradition was gradually introduced into China. Now, afternoon tea is increasingly popular in China, especially in the area of Guangdong and Fujian provinces. [解析] 1.仔细分析发现,第1句的前后分句语义上表转折。翻译时,可以考虑用“虽然……但是……”(, it...)的结构来译。“‘下午茶’的概念却是到……才……出现的”可用it is 句型来表达,译为it was hat the concept
of“afternoon tea”appeared,但为避免显得头重脚轻,可把谓语appeared提前,进行倒装以平衡结构。
2.第2句中的“当时那里时兴的晚餐时间是晚上8点”翻译时进行“增词”处理,加一个late(晚的)更能准确表达出下午茶的必要性;同时,“时兴的”转换成副词popularly,使译文自然流畅。
3.倒数第2句中的“这个英国传统逐渐进入中国”逐字对译则为this British tradition gradually entered into China,这样翻译略显生硬。实际上,这是一句没有被动标记词的被动句,宜译为this British tradition was gradually introduced into China。
4.最后一句中的“广东和福建地区”不可直译为Guangdong and Fujian area,应把“广东”和“福建”的性质交代清楚,译作in the area of Guangdong and Fujian provinces才符合英语表达习惯。

4.中国新颁布的 老年人保护法 (elderly protection law)规定,成年子女必须看望他们年迈的父母。年迈的父母如果感觉被子女忽视了,可以把他们已成年的孩子告上法庭。但是,法律没有说明子女必须看望父母的频率。法律中也没有说如何执行这项法律、忽略长辈如何惩罚。一位帮助起草老年人保护法草案的教授说,立法主要是为了提高人们对于老年人情感支持需要的意识。

正确答案:()
解析:China"s new elderly protection law states that adult children must visit their elderly parents. Aging parents can take their adult kids to court if they feel neglected. However, the law does not state how often a child must visit his or her parents. There is also nothing in the legislation that states how the law would be enforced and what the punishment is for neglecting one"s elderly parents. A professor who helped draft the elderly protection law said that the legislation is mainly introduced to raise people"s awareness that elderly people need emotional support.
5.相声(Xiangsheng)是中国最重要的表演艺术之一。共有三种不同形式的相声,分别由一人、两人和多人表演。其中由两人表演的对口相声(cross talk)最为流行,传播最为广泛。“相声”一词最初是指模仿别人的言谈举止。现代相声包含四种基本技能:说、学、逗(tease)、唱。由于相声的许多内容是笑话和有趣的故事,语言幽默而又讽刺(sarcastic),因此深受人民众的喜爱。

正确答案:()
解析:Xiangsheng is one of China"s most significant performing arts, including three different forms, performed respectively by one person, two persons and three or more persons. Of the three forms, cross talk, performed by two persons, is the most popular and widespread. The term "Xiangsheng" originally referred to the act of imitating someone"s speech and behavior. Modern Xiangsheng is composed of four basic skills: speaking, imitating, teasing and singing. Due to its contents which are mainly jokes and interesting stories and its humorous and sarcastic language, Xiangsheng has become very popular among people. 1.前两句的主语相同,且信息量都较少,故可考虑将这两句合译,将第2句译成including引导的伴随状语。
2.第3句的主干是“对口相声最为流行,传播最为广泛”。把动词词组spread widely转换成
形容词widespread,与popular并列成为句子的表语。
3.第4句中,“一词”应该译成term,而不是译成word。因为前者指专门的术语,而后者单纯指单词,前者更适合指代相声这门艺术。本句增译the act,意为“相声是一种模仿……的艺术或行为”,使表达更加完整。
4.最后一句是因果句,其中原因有两点,“内容是笑话和有趣的故事”和“语言幽默又讽刺”,这部分可处理成原因状语从句(because its contents are…and its language is…),或用due to, owing to等引导的原因状语(due to its… contents and… language)。本句需注意避免出现because… so…的错误。
