9. He will give an immediate reply. 他会立即答复。
汉译英中副词转为形容词，常常是与动词转译为名词关联着的。动词转译为名词，这原文中修饰动词的副词也自然地要转译为形容词，以修饰名词。例如第7、8、9、等。
4. 转译成副词
A. Nouns—Adverbs
1. The man nodded with satisfaction.那人满意地点了点头。
2. He had the honor to attend the congress. 他荣幸地出席了代表大会。

3. He had a careful study of the map before he started off.
他在出发前仔细地看了看地图。
4. Can you give an accurate translation of the sentence?
你能准确地把这句话译出来吗？
很简单，由于英语中带有动作意味的名词汉译为动词，因而原文修饰名词的形容词也业相应地汉译为副词，以便修饰动词。
