2016四级考试翻译题精选练习(21)
大学英语四六级考试/模拟试题2016四级考试翻译题精选练习(21) 大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习(21)1.Everyone has his inherentability ,________________ (只是很容易被习惯所掩盖).2.The importance of traffic safety ,_________________ (无论如何强调都不为过).3.In my opinion , ______________ (打电动玩具既浪费时间也有害健康).4.There is no doubt that ______________ (近视是一个很严重的问题)among the youth of our country.5.According to my personal experience ,___________________ (微笑已带给我许多好处).1. which is easily concealed by habits解析：每个人都有与生俱来的能力，只是很容易被习惯所掩盖。
本题的难点在于对动词"掩盖"的选择。
这里的"掩盖"是抽象含义，并不是像 cover那样能找到真实的掩盖物，所以应该选择conceal，常用搭配由：conceal...from。
另外，这句话是一个非限制性定语从句。
句子需填补内容是对 ability的补充说明，"能力"是中心词。
因此，要用which引导这个非限制性定语从句。
2. can’t be overemphasized / can’t be emphasized too much解析：本句考查的是"再......也不为过的"的说法。
英语句型是：cannot + do sth. + too much 或 cannot over-do，如：He is so excellent that we cannot praise him too much.(他是这样的优秀，我们怎样称赞他都不过分。
2016年大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习(20)
大学英语四六级考试/模拟试题2016年大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习(20)1._______________ (通过体育锻炼)，we can always stay healthy.2.According to the scientific research ,_____________ (听音乐能使我们放松).Is this really true?3.______________ (我们绝对不能)ignore the value of knowledge.4.As is known to all, ______________ (假冒伪劣商品)harm the interests of consumers.5.Faced with failure,some people can stand up to it, _____________ (从失败中汲取教训)and try hard to fulfill what they are determined to do.1. By taking exercises解析：通过锻炼，我们可以保持健康。
其实这题答案不止一个。
“锻炼”可以用名词也可以用动词短语。
“通过”可以用by表示方式，through 表示途径。
By taking exercises /Through exercises。
往往by用于“by + doing”，而through后接名词哦。
2. listening to music enables us to feel relaxed解析：“听音乐”在句中作主语，“听”应当处理成动名词形式。
“能使我们放松”很多同学会采用 can make us feel relaxed的结构。
其实，enable就有“能够使某人……”的含义，注意enable sb. to do 的表达。
3. On no account can we解析：本题是强调语气，强调“决不能”，所以联想到on no account ,by no means,at no time,in no case 等。
2016年四级模拟题翻译答案(1)
2016年四级模拟题翻译答案Model Test 3Online shopping is a new shopping mode increasingly popular in China in recent years. People search for goods they want in shopping websites, then make electronic orders and pay online. The sellers deliver commodities to customers’ homes via the express company. The major groups who shopped online were primarily university students and white collars. At present, the great majority of netizens have the experience of shopping online. In the last decade, the number of shopping websites has increased tremendously and the commodities sold online become more colorful by the day. Some people hold that the convenience and low price are important reasons for the rapid development of online shopping.Model Test 4Microblog is a broadcast medium existing in the form of blog. Through microblog not only can people acquire and share vast body of information in seconds but also communicate with others. The American website Twitter is the earliest and most famous microblog. In 2009, “Sina Weibo”was launched and became the first microblog website in China. At present, at least 70% of the netizens ate microbloggers. Microblog has emerged as such an website important source of real-time news updates that a new word “the Microblog Era” has come up.Model Test 5At present, Chinese overseas students increasingly show a trend of younger age, because more and more parents with good state of economy are willing to send their children abroad to receive education. Studying abroad at a young age is viewed as a shortcut for entering a famous overseas university. In addition, the younger one goes abroad to study, the earlier he can adapt to the local language environment and education system. Meanwhile, it also can cultivate children’s comprehensive quality and enhance their competitiveness. However, going abroad at a young age also has drawbacks. Parents should put more time and energy into children’s growth.Model Test 6The Olympic Games are an international multi-sport event subdivided into summer and winter sporting events. The summer and winter games are each held every four years. The original Olympic Games were first recorded in 776 BC in Olympia, Greece. The Olympics are one of the largest media events. In Sydney in 2000 there were more than 16,000 broadcasters and journalists, and an estimated 3.8 billion viewers watched the games on television. However, the development of the Olympics is one of the largest problems the Olympics face today.Model Test 7With China’s economy gaining momentum, product quality and food safety have drawn increasing attention. The Chinese government shares the concern of consumers about the issue. In this area, even if there is only one defective product in 10,000 goods finding its way to the market, it will harm the interests of the consumer who buys it definitely. Thanks to the efforts over the years, China has improved a lot in strengthening product quality control and food safety supervision.Model Test 8The Great Wall of China is an ancient Chinese military defense construction. The first major wall was built during the reign of Qin Shihuang. This wall was not constricted as a single endeavor, but rather was created by the joining of several regional walls built in the Warring States Period. It was located much farther north than the current Great Wall, and very little remains of it. The existing Great Wall is mainly that of the Ming Dynasty built from the end of the 14th century until the beginning of the 17th century, in order to protect China from raids by the Mongols and Turkic tribes.Model Test 9The Forbidden City, grand and magnificent, represents the highest peak of ancient Chinese architecture and enjoys worldwide fame for its scale and unique style. Preserved here are a large number of rare and precious antiques, which are of great significance to the study of Ming and Qing history and the arts of past dynasties. In 1925, the Forbidden City was renamed Palace Museum and became one of largest museums in the world. Since the founding of People’s Republic of China, the national government has spent large sums on the protection and maintenance of the Forbidden City. At present it is one of the most popular tourism sites in Beijing.Model Test 10Kangxi enjoys the longest reign in Chinese history. He was also the wisest emperor of the Qing Dynasty. He instituted Confucianism as the state ideology, appointed Han officials and promoted Han culture. It was also he who proposed to compile the Kangxi Dictionary. Kangxi also attached great importance to the restoration of agricultural production, which had been devastated by years of war. He adopted a series of measures to lighten the burden of the peasants. Kangxi made great contributions to the territorial integrity of the country, as well as to its security and prosperity.。

Be plunged into表示"使......陷入，使......遭受"，如：plunge a country into war(使一个国家陷入战争);plunge sb. into deep sorrow(使某人陷入深深的悲痛之中)。
另外，前半句中careworn意为"受折磨的，饱经忧患的"。
2. theory be combined with practicebe combined with...是固定搭配，意为"与......相结合"。
Be connected with是指"将......连起来"，在含义上有所差别。

题一：1936年竺可桢授命出任浙江大学[微博]校长。
在此之前，他已经是一位声名卓著的自然科学家了。
从1936年到1949年，竺可桢当了十三年大学校长。
在连绵不断的战争、学运的夹缝中，在极为恶劣的环境下，他跋涉五千里、五易校址、历经五省、颠沛流离，居然将这所他接手时只有三个学院、十六个系的大学办成了拥有七个学院、二十七个学系全国最完整的两所大学之一。
参考答案：In 1936,Zhu Kezhen was appointed as the principal of Zhejiang University.Even before then,he had been a famous natural scientist.From 1936 to 1949,Zhu Kezhen worked as the university principal for 13 years.In the extremely hostile environment filled with converging attacks by continuous wars and various university affairs,being homeless and miserable,he trudged 5,000 li and drifted from place to place through 5 provinces,with the university location being changed 5 times.He actually developed the university into one of the nation's two most integrated universities composed of 7 schools and 27 departments,compared with only 3 schools and 16 departments when he took it over。
2016年6月英语四级翻译预测(二)
2016年6月英语四级翻译预测(二)【原文】中国结是中国文化的典型代表之一。
中国结源于古代，当时人们用系结的方式来记事，在唐宋时期逐渐发展成为一种饰品，并在明清时期开始盛行至今。
中国结象征着团结、友谊、和平、热情和爱情等。
制作中国结的材料多种多样，如棉线、丝编、尼龙、皮革，甚至是一些贵重金属。
如今，中国结在世界各地广受欢迎。
【解析】1.第1句中的典型代表之一可用one of the typical symbols来表达。
2.第2句的主语与第1句一样，都是Chinese knot，故用代词it表达以避免重复。
此句是由源于、发展、盛行三个谓语组成的并列句，句子较长，翻译时可考虑将其拆译为两个句子。
当时人们用系结的方式来记事拆分了汉语句中的三个连贯动作，可把它处理成when引导的状语从句，译为when to keep records.keep records本身就已含记事之义，故采用英汉翻译中的减词译法，不再把事译出来。
3.第2句中的逐渐发展成为一种饰品，并在明清时期开始盛行至今说明了中国结发展的不同阶段，在结构上属于汉语中典型的叙事多用并列结构的特点。
翻译类似的汉语结构多采用同一主语，并列谓语的英语结构，故将developed和prevailed处理成并列谓语。
4.倒数第2句中的制作中国结的材料的中心词为材料，定语制作中国结的材料较长，故将其处理成后置定语，用分词短语used to make the knots来表达。
【参考译文】Chinese knot is one of the typical symbols of Chinese culture. It appeared in ancient times when people tied knots to keep records. It developed gradually as a type of decoration during the Tang and Song Dynasties, and prevailed from the Ming and Qing Dynasties up to now. Chinese knot means reunion, friendship, peace, warmth, and love, etc. Materials used to make the knots are various, such as cotton, silk, nylon, leather and even precious metals. Today, Chinese knot is popular in many parts of the world.【原文】吉利数字在中国文化一直起着重要的作用。
英语四级考试：英语四级翻译训练题(6)
大学英语四六级考试/模拟试题2016年英语四级考试：英语四级翻译训练题(6)例1 ____________(将领你们去参观我们的新车间)by the secretary.译文：You will be shown our new workshop.简评：如果这句话不是划线填内容，你完全可以将它翻译成The secretary will show you our new workshop。
正是因为题型是补全句子，这就给翻译带来了一定的难度，你必须去适应题型要求而不是让题型来适应你。
让我们看看译文已给出部分：by the secretary显然是一个被动语态特征，“秘书”在译文里已经由原来的主语变成了译文句子的补足成分。
所以，题目是暗示我们要把原句中“你们”转换成译句里的主语，这样才符合出题要求。
例2 You __________(我们期待你能组织贸易推广活动)this time.译文：are expected to organize the trade publicity campaigns.简评：根据题目可推知全句意思是：我们期望你能组织这次的贸易推广活动。
中文句子主语、谓语、宾语分别是：我们、期望、你。
但是在英文译文的给出部分中我们看到句子以you开头，也就是说“你被期望能组织这次贸易推广活动”。
中文的宾语变成了英文的主语，这就要求我们在翻译时要使用被动语态。
全句完整答案是：You are expected to organize the trade publicity campaigns this time.2)当汉语句以“我们”、“人们”、“大家”等泛指性代词作主语时，在翻译成英文的时候常常可以忽略主语不译，并把英文译句处理成被动语态。
处理后的英文译句往往带有 know，see，find，say，suppose，estimate，report，suggest，stress，consider， expect，admit，point，understand 等动词。

五行包括金、木、水、火和土五种要素。
五行学说强调整体概念，描绘了事物的结构关系和运动形式。

这五个要素相互作用，不但影响到人的命运，同时也使宇宙万物循环不已。
五行学说成熟干汉代 (the Han Dynasty)，之后广泛应用于中医、建筑和武术(martial arts}等领域。
四级翻译参考答案:The theory of five elements is a concept of matter inancient China. The five elements include metal, wood,water, fire, and earth. The theory of five elementsemphasizes on an overall concept, describing thestructural relationships and forms of movement ofmatters. The theory holds that everything in theuniverse is based on the movement and change of these five elements. These five elementsinteract with each other, affecting a person's fate as well as making the universe move inendless cycles. The theory got mature in the Han Dynasty and was widely employed in thefields like traditional Chinese medicine, architecture, and martial arts.1.第2句五行中的“金”指“金属”，而非“黄金”，故第2句中应译为metal，而非gold。

2016英语四级翻译预测中国城市化
2016英语四级翻译预测:中国城市化来源:智阅网中国城市化原文：中国城市化(urbanization)将会充分释放潜在内需(domestic demand)。
一些经济学家指出，在中国几乎所有的发展中城市都面临着城市化的进程。
这使得许多人的生活水平有所提高，也为人们提供更多的就业机会。
随着越来越多的人向城市迁徙，住房及城市基础设施建设(infrastructure construction),包括水源等能源的供应将会成为城市发展的焦点问题。
商品与服务的自由、快速流通是城市化社会的一项基本特征。
逐渐扩张的城市需要更多的零售店来满足消费者的需求。
参考译文：UrbanizationChina’s urbanization will release the full potential of domestic demand. Some economists point out that urbanization is a process that is occurring in nearly every developing city in the country. It will lead to a better quality of life for many people，and provide individuals with more job opportunities. The construction of housing and city infrastructure, including water and energy supplies, will be a focal point of urban development as more people migrate to cities. Urbanization means better access to educational and medical resources in the city. But it also predicts less use of personal vehicles and more use of public transportation. The fast, free flow of goods and services is a basic trait of an urbanized society.
