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。
2.第3句中的第2个分句“描绘了事物的结构关系和运动形式”可处理为状语,表伴随状态,用分词短语describing the structural relationships and forms of movement of matters 来表达。
3.第4句中的“五行学说认为”可译为the theory holds that...,亦可译为according to the theory,承前句,“五行学说”可简单转换表达为“该学说”(the theory)。“宇宙万物”可译为the universe,强调整体,也可表达为 everything in the universe。
4.第5句有三个分句,可把“这五个要素相互作用”处理成主干,“不但影响到……,同时也使宇宙万物……”处理为结果状语,用分词短语来表达,“不但……同时也”可用结构both... and...或... as well as...来表达,故整句译为 These five elements interact with each other, affecting...as well as making...。
5.最后一句“五行学说成熟于汉代,之后广泛应用于……”可用并列结构译出:The theory got mature in theHan Dynasty and was widely employed...。翻译宾语“中医、建筑和武术等领域”时,先译出中心词fields,再用like或者such as来引出例子。

1.第1句中的“分为三个阶段”实表被动的意义,故译为be divided into...。
2.第4句中的定语“从小学到初中的”较长,故将其处理成后置定语,用介词短语from primary school tojunior high school 来表达。
3.第5句中的两个分句均比较长可考虑用并列结构译出:The Chinese government has placed strategicpriority on... and advanced the strategy...。但不如将后半句“提出了......的战略方针”处理成表伴随的状语,译作advancing the strategy...,使句子逻辑关系更为清晰。“提出”可译作put forward或advance。
4.最后一句中的“在政府和人民的共同努力下”可用介词短语with the joint efforts of both thegovernment and the people来表达。翻译“中国的教育取得了历史性的成就”时,为了符合英语表达习惯,宜转化原宾语“历史性的成就”为主语,原主语“中国的教育”处理为状语,全句用被动语态译出,表达为historic achievements have been made in Chinese education。
