参考翻译:
Situated in eastern Asia, on the west coast of the Pacific Ocean, China is the world's third largest country with a total area of 9.6 million square kilometers. Extending about 5,500 kilometers from north to south and 5,200 kilometers from west to east, the shape of China on the map is like a rooster. Its terrain is higher in the west and lower in the east with great varieties, including mountains, plateaus, foothills, basins and plains. China's mountainous areas, broad and vast, occupy nearly two-thirds of the land area and have abundant mineral resources. Mainland China has a coastline of 18,000 kilometers and a large number of offshore islands, with Taiwan Island the biggest one. There are numerous rivers and lakes in China, which make up an important part of China's geographical environment.
1.第一句话中有三个短句,首先将“中国是世界第三大国家”确定为英文句的主干;“位于…译成situated in...,用过去分词短语作状语,置于句首;“总面积约960万平方公里”可处理为with引导的介宾结构,紧跟在“世界第三大国家(theworld's third largest country)”之后。
2.第二句较长,同样先确定“中国的形状像一只雄鸡”为句子主干,再将“中国南北相距约5500公里”和“东西相距约5200公里”处理为现在分词短语作状语,即extending about...from north to south and...from west to east。
3.“地形多种多样”,可采用with引导的介宾短语来表达,译成with great varieties,补充说明句子主语terrain 的特点。
4.第四句“中国山地…”中的“山地面积广大”可处理成插人语broad and vast,而“几乎占陆地面积…”和“蕴藏着…”则译成句子主干的两个并列谓语occupy nearly...and have abundant...。
2017年大学英语六级翻译模拟题(二):中国朝代
中国有4000多年的历史,是世界最古老的文明之一。从公元前21世纪的夏朝开始至清朝结束,中国历史上经历过几十个朝代的变更。每个朝代在政治、经济、文化、科技领域等都有独特的成就。汉朝是当时世界上最先进的帝国。”汉族“(theHan Nationality)这一名称就得名于汉朝。唐朝因统一时间长、国力强盛而被国人铭记,因此在海外的中国人自称为“唐人”(Tang people)。宋朝和明朝是经济、文化、教育与科学高度繁荣的时代。但朝代的更替一般会导致连年战争,给人民大众带来了难以言表的痛苦。
参考翻译:
With a history of more than 4,000 years, China isone of the oldest ancient civilizations of the world.From Xia Dynasty in the 21st century BC to QingDynasty, China experienced dozens of dynasties inhistory. Each dynasty achieved uniqueaccomplishments in the fields of politics, economy, culture, science and technology, etc. HanDynasty was the most advanced empire at that time, which contributes to the formation ofthe name "the Han Nationality' Tang Dynasty impressed Chinese for its long time unificationand powerful national strength, because of which overseas Chinese call themselves "Tangpeople" abroad. Song Dynasty and Ming Dynasty were periods when economy, culture,education and science were highly prosperous. But the change from one dynasty to anotherusually led to long-lasting wars, which brought unspeakable suffering for the masses.
1.第一句话中有两个分句,可将“是世界最古老的文明之一”作为主干;“有4000多年的历史”可使用With引导的介词短语来表达,即with a history of...。
2.第四句可将前半句“汉朝是当时世界上最先进的帝国”译为英文的主句。后半句“汉族…得名于汉朝”可译为which引导的非限制性定语从句,跟前句联系起来,理解为“汉朝对于汉族名称的形成起了作用”。
3.第五句“唐朝因统一时间长…”由两个分句组成,可将“统一时间长、国力强盛”作为英文的主句;后接which引导的非限制性定语从句,为了突出“因此”,可在which前加because of;“在海外的中国人自称…”这个分句里没有主语,因此要采用被动语态来翻译。
4.“宋朝和明朝是…繁荣的时代”一句中,“时代”的定语较长,因此可处理为when引导的定语从句,用来修饰 periods。
5.末句可将“朝代的更替一般会导致连年战争”处理为主句;将后半句“给人们…痛苦”处理为伴随状语 bringing unspeakable suffering for the masses,也可使用which引导的非限制性定语从句来表达。
2017年大学英语六级翻译模拟题(三):汉朝
汉朝建于公元前202年,是中国历史上存在时间最长的朝代之一,分为西汉与东汉两个阶段。汉朝被称为黄金时代,在经济、文化、艺术和科技等各个方面均创造了辉煌的文明。汉朝奠定了汉民族的民族文化,西汉所尊崇的儒家思想(Confucianism)成为中国的主流思想。在西汉时期,商业贸易蓬勃发展,丝绸之路(the Silk Road)的开辟就是一个重要的经济成就。技术进步也是汉朝的重要成就,中国两个伟大发明,造纸和瓷器(porcelain)是在这一时期发展起来的。220年东汉灭亡,汉朝统治结束。

1.第一句话中有三个短句,为避免译成英文时句子显得冗长,可处理为两个独立的句子。第一个短句“建于公元前202年”译成founded in 202 BC,作插入语。“分为西汉与东汉两个阶段”独立成句,增译主语it,用以指代汉朝。
2.“汉朝被称为黄金时代”译为considered a golden age,用过去分词短语作状语,代替状语从句,这样显得句式简洁而又灵活。
3.第四句“在西汉时期…”由两个短句组成,可将“商业贸易蓬勃发展”作为句子主干,将“丝绸之路的开辟是…”处理成with引导的介宾结构,作伴随状语,即译成with the opening up of the Silk Road as an importanteconomic achievement。
