六級翻譯練習：故宮 故宮位于北京市中心，是明清兩代24位皇帝的皇宮。1 故宮首建于明成祖年間，歷時14 年竣工。2 沒有皇帝特許，禁止任何人進宮，因此這里又叫“紫禁城”。故宮外觀呈長方形，是世界上最大的宮殿群，占地約72萬平方米，四面環(huán)繞著52米寬的護城河和10 米高的城墻。3 城墻四面各有一座城門，南北門相距961米， 東西門相隔753米。4 故宮分為兩部分。南部又稱外朝，是皇帝行使最高權(quán)力的地方；北部又稱內(nèi)廷，是皇帝和皇室生活的場所。5 由于黃色是皇族的標志，故翻譯練習宮內(nèi)以黃色為主。6 屋頂鋪的是黃色琉璃瓦， 宮里的裝飾品也被漆成黃色。 但是有一個例外，皇帝的書齋文淵閣是黑頂，原因是當時人們認為黑色代表水，可以滅火。7 故宮用作皇宮約有五百年歷史，藏有大量奇珍古玩。8 1987年，故宮被聯(lián)合國教科文組織列為世界文化遺產(chǎn)?，F(xiàn)在，故宮已成為全世界最受歡迎的景點之一，對國內(nèi)外游客開放。 參考譯文： Lying at the center of Beijing, the Palace Museum was the imperial palace for 24 emperors during the Ming and Qing dynasties. It was built during the reign of Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, taking 14 years to complete. It was forbidden to enter without special permission of the emperor. Hence it is also named the Forbidden City. Rectangular in shape, the Palace Museum is the world’s largest palace complex, covering an area of some 720,000 square meters, surrounded by a 52-meter-wide moat and 10-meter-high walls. The walls have a gate on each side. The distance between the south and north gates is 961 meters, while the distance between the east and west gates is 753 meters. The Palace Museum is divided into two parts. The southern section, or the Outer Court, was where the emperor exercised his supreme power over the nation. The northern section, or the Inner Court, was where the emperor lived with his royal family. Since yellow is the symbol of the royal family, it is the dominant color in the Palace Museum. Roofs are built with yellow glazed tiles, and decorations in the palace are also painted yellow. However, there is one exception. Wenyuange, the royal library, has a black roof. The reason is that it was believed black represented water and could extinguish fire. Having been the imperial palace for some 500 years, the Palace Museum houses numerous rare treasures and curiosities. In 1987, the Palace Museum was listed by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage Site. The Palace Museum is now one of the most popular tourist attractions worldwide, open to tourists from home and abroad. 翻譯簡析 1 將故宮的地理位置譯為狀語，符合英文表達習慣?！拔挥诒本┦兄行摹币部梢宰g為 Located in the center of Beijing或Situated at the center of Beijing。? 2 “明成祖年間”意即明成祖在位期間，故譯作during the reign of Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty。遇到類似表達，可以套用。如“清康熙年間”可譯為during the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty。 3 本句信息較多，原文結(jié)構(gòu)較為松散，譯文將“是世界上最大的宮殿群”作為主句，其他信息分別譯為形容詞短語或分詞結(jié)構(gòu)，自然緊湊。 4 本句用了分譯法，使譯文表意更清晰。 5 “又稱”這里譯作or，表達的意思比譯為also called 更簡潔。 6 本句重點講故宮的顏色，所以譯文以黃色為中心組織句子，譯法靈活?！耙渣S色為主”， 意即黃色是故宮的主色調(diào)，故譯作it is the dominant color。 7 原文中“皇帝的書齋”是“文淵閣”的同位語，譯文中也處理為同位語。此外，本句分譯為兩句，以突出文淵閣的與眾不同。 8 根據(jù)英語表達習慣，將表時間的概念譯為分詞結(jié)構(gòu)，作狀語。

請將下面這段話翻譯成英文： 一想到中國，人們腦海中閃現(xiàn)的第一件事便是絲綢。中國是絲綢的發(fā)源地，今天仍在生產(chǎn)一些世界上最好的絲綢。在中國，探索絲綢奧妙最好的地方是蘇州。正是在那里，誕生了第一批絲繡(silk embroidery)，如今蘇州仍在生產(chǎn)中國最好的絲綢。絲綢可以用合成纖維(synthetic fibre)和人造纖維等制成，但最優(yōu)質(zhì)的絲綢是由桑蠶絲(mulberry silk)制成的。桑蠶(silkworm)純粹以桑葉喂食。蘇州絲綢可以制成很多產(chǎn)品，最常見的是衣服和圍巾，但也能做成鞋、餐巾、玩具，甚至風箏。 參考翻譯 When people think of China, [w=silk]silk[/w] is the first thing that pops into their mind. China is the [w=birthplace]birthplace[/w] of silk, and still produces some of the finest silk in the world. In China, the best place to discover the wonder of silk is the city of Suzhou. It was there that some of the first silk embroideries were born, and Suzhou is still producing the best silks in China. Silk can be produced from synthetic fibre and artificial fibre, etc., but the finest quality silk is made from [w=mulberry]mulberry[/w] silk. The [w=silkworm]silkworms[/w] are fed purely on mulberry leaves. Suzhou Silk can be made into a great many products, the most commonly being clothing and scarves, and it can be made into shoes, napkin, toys, and even kites as well. 翻譯詳解 1.想到:可譯為think of。后半句的pops into mind也可表示“想到”，而think over則為“仔細考慮”的意思。 2.探索絲綢奧妙最好的地方:本句看似可以用定語從句來修飾主語，其翻譯實用動詞不定式作后置定語來翻譯更為簡潔。 3.正是在那里，誕生了第一批絲繡:本句可以用it is+that的強調(diào)句式來表達，即 It was there that some of the first silk embroideries were born.這會給整體的翻譯增加得分點。

一個人的生命究竟有多大意義，這有什么標準可以衡量嗎?提出一個絕對的標準當然很困難;但是，大體上看一個人對待生命的態(tài)度是否嚴肅認真，看他對待勞動、工作等等的態(tài)度如何，也就不難對這個人的存在意義做出適當?shù)墓烙嬃恕?古來一切有成就的人，都很嚴肅地對待自己的生命，當他活著一天，總要盡量多勞動、多工作、多學習，不肯虛度年華，不讓時間白白地浪費掉。我國歷代的勞動人民及大政治家、大思想家等等都莫不如此。 參考譯文： What is the significance of life?
