II、句子分译
a.含定语从句的句子：除少数情况这类从句都是长句。

英译汉中，如若不能将其译成合适的前置定语，一般分译成另外一个独立的句子或另一种从句，如状语从句等。

例He visited many places,in all of which he was received with the usual enthusiasm which attended his arduous labors.

他的艰苦努力是经常受到欢迎的。

b.当修饰主语的成分，特别是非限制性定语从句太长时，需要分译。

人类由于面临辐射威胁，包括原子武器产生的放射性散落所造成的辐射威胁，很可能遭到基因损失，这一问题近年来已经理所当然地引起人们的广泛关注。

c.当状语太长而硬译成一句变得不易理解时，应该分译。

关于折中方案的消息是一位可靠人士传出来的。

在这个消息传出之前不过几小时，总统的特使某先生在与埃及外长进行第五次秘密会谈之后，曾对记者说“解决方案现已在望”。

d.一个长句包含作者的多步逻辑推理，英译汉时可用分译法。

Thus it happened that when the new factories that were springing up required labour,tens of thousands of homeless and hungry agricultural workers,with their wives and children,were forced
into the cities in search of work,any work,under any condition,that would keep them alive.
于是，就出现了这样的情况，正当新办的工厂纷纷成立、需要劳动力的时候，成千上万无家可归、饥肠辘辘的从事农业的劳动者，携妻带儿，被迫流入城市；他们要找活干，不管什么活儿，不讲什么条件，只要不让他们饿死就行。
