旅游翻译作业

It’s one of the smallest countries in the world，but Brunei is also one of the richest. It’s a strict Islamic nation with several magnificent places of worship that intimidate with their grand scale and glow powerfully when illuminated at night; yet there’s a worldlinessand sense of ease about Bruneians that makes it hard not to feel relaxed around them.
1.Strict 选词出现疑惑，所以把该词单独拿出来，分译成两个短句。

译为“严格来说，它是一个穆斯林国家...”
2.makes it hard not to双重否定表肯定，为避免重复，所以可以简单译为“让人倍感轻松”。

文莱(Brunei)是世界上面积最小，但是也是最富有的国家之一。

严格来说，它是一个穆斯林国家，有许多宏伟的朝拜之地。

夜晚华灯初上，朝拜地规模宏大，光芒璀璨，令人赞叹不已；然而，文莱人的世俗观念和悠闲安逸会让人倍感轻松。

The capital, Bandar Seri Begawan(BSB), is about as well equipped and orderly as any city within the overheated environsof Southeast Asia can afford to be, yet lining the Sungai Brunei(Brunei River)are stilt villages so lean and deceptively shabby—looking that they seem to be a caricature of the city itself．And while Brunei makes itself. ？？？
1.overheated environsoverheated不知如何翻译。

2.And while Brunei makes itself. ？？？本句是个不完整的句子，不知如何下手。

文莱首都斯里巴加湾市（Bandar Seri Begawan),与东南亚周围的一些城市一样，设备齐全，井然有序。

但是在文莱河沿岸，伫立着高脚楼的村庄，贫穷又破败，与文莱城市的繁华相比，颇具讽刺。

And while Brunei makes its living by efficiently plundering natural resources from underground，nearly 80％of the country is covered by pristine rain forest threaded by mangrove-lined rivers and walking trails, all of it suffused with a sense of adventure．Such are the contrasts of this intriguing sultanate blessed by a wealth of traditional culture and modernity. Since achieving independence from Britain,it has been known rather fittingly as Negara Brunei Darussalam—Brunei, the Abode of Peace．
1.nearly 80％of the country is covered by pristine rain forest threaded by mangrove-lined rivers and walking trails句子较长，含有多个定语从句，不好理解，在翻译时拆解句子，采取分译法，译为短句，便于理解。

2.Fittingly意思是适切地，适合地，如果放到文中，略显拖沓，所以单独拿出来，译为一个小句。

文莱人为了谋生大肆掠夺地下自然资源，这里约80%的土地被原始雨林覆盖，两岸种着红树林的河流和人行步道穿过雨林。

这些营造了一种冒险氛围。

众多传统文化与现代文明的碰撞，恰是迷人的伊斯兰教君主圣地的矛盾之处。

自从脱离英国统治获得独立后，文莱被人称为文莱达鲁萨兰国——文莱，和平之邦。

这真是再合适不过了。
