我国翻译公司的现状 八、我国翻译产业的发展 我国翻译行业正快速步入健康发展的轨道，主要表现在以下几个方面: 1.翻译人才职业化步入轨道 为适应社会主义市场经济和我国加入世界贸易组织的需要，加强我国外语翻译专业人员队伍建设，科学、客观、公正地评价翻译专业人才的水平和能力，更好地为我国对外开放服务，根据建立国家职业资格证书制度的精神，全国开始实行开放式、面向社会、面向公众、国内最具权威的、统一的翻译专业资格(水平)认证。该认证是在国家人事部指导下，由中国外文出版发行事业局组织实施与管理。经国家人事部同意，首次英语翻译专业二、三级试点考试己于2003年12月6日至7日在北京、广州、上海三市举行;随后第二次考试于2004 年5月29日至30日，在全国12个省(市、区)进行;2005年起在全国统一实施。通过目前国内统一的、最具权威的翻译专业资格(水平)考试，可以对社会上从事翻译工作的人员的翻译能力和水平作出比较科学、客观、公正的评价。其次，翻译专业资格(水平)考试，是在充分考虑到与翻译系列专业技术职务相衔接基础上，对全国翻译系列职称评审进行的一项积极的、富有改革意义的重大举措。考试在全国范围实行后，不再进行相应翻译职务任职资格的评审工作，各地区、各部门为评定相应翻译专业技术职务任职资格而进行的考试也一律停止。通过翻译专业资格(水平)考试，取得翻译专业资格(水平)证书的人员，用人单位可根据需要，按照《翻译专业职务试行条娜任职条件要求聘任相应的专业技术职务。通过考试还可以达到规范和促进国内翻译市场发展的作用。此外通过对翻译专业人员水平和能力的评价，可以为不断规范化的翻译市场提供高质量的服务;可以更好地维护客户和翻译人员双方的利益。2.翻译服务规范化提上日程 中国第一个有关翻译的国家标准—《翻译服务规范第I部分：笔译》于2003年11月27日颁布。接着翻译服务译文质量的国家标准《翻译服务译文质量要求》于2004年7月20日在北京通过了中国标准化协会组织的专家审定。又一个国家标准翻译服务规范第2部分:口译己见初稿，正在征求有关部门和专家的意见的基础上，己通过有关各方组成的专家审查委员会审定后报批。这些规范或标准的制订并颁布必将对改进翻译服务、提高翻译管理水平、推进我国翻译市场建设有重大影响。译文质量的高低直接影响上至国家政府部门下至企事业单位和个人对外交流的利益。因此，为了保证接受服务的客户都能得到符合要求的译文产品，对翻译服务单位设立必要的技术门槛和规范译文质量标准势在必行。这些标准的制定将保证翻译服务过程中客户与翻译服务方的良好合作和沟通。而良好的合作与沟通是保证翻译服务译文质量的必要前提。翻译服务方在开始翻译前应充分了解客户使用译文的目的，详尽记录客户的特殊需求，并向客户客观地介绍译文质量的等级和合格率，最大限度地消除可能出现的歧义。影响译文质量的因素主要有译者的语言驾驭能力、专业知识结构、工作经历以及翻译时限等。翻译服务规定就译文质量要求、译文中允许的变通、译文质量评定及译文的检测方法等作出了规定。 3.成立了行业性的管理机构 2003年11月，经国家民政部批准成立了中国译协翻译服务委员会。该委员会是中国译协的第九个委员会，也是我国唯一的翻译经营管理委员会。中国译协的其他八个委员会是按语类或翻译内容来分的学术性较强的委员会，如文学翻译、科技翻译、社会科学翻译、民族语文翻译等委员会。翻译服务委员会成立的宗旨是协调、规范翻译服务行业，促进全国翻译服务企业的联合协作，优化人力资源，推进规范化经营和管理，通过制定一系列标准、规范，以期在技术法规的层面上规范翻译服务行为。

英语翻译常考句型详解 1.It is not that…but that… 这不是说…，而是说… 「例文」It is not that the scales in the one case, and the balance in the other, differ in the principles of their construction or manner of working; but that the latter is much finer apparatus and of couse much more accurate in its measurement than the former. 「译文」这并不是说在一种情况下所使用的磅秤和在另一种情况下所使用的天平在构造原理上或工作方式上存在差别，而是说与前者相比，后者是一种更精密得多的装置，因而在计量上必然更加准确。 2.nothing else than 完全是，实在是 「例文」What the man said was nothing else than nonsense. 「译文」那个人讲的话完全是一派胡言。 3.as引导的特殊状语从句，翻译时做定语从句处理。 「例文」We hope the measures to control prices, as they have been taken by the government, will succeed. 「译文」我们希望，政府已经采取的控制物价的措施将取得成功。 4.名词+or+名词结构中，or后的名词是同位语，应译为即…；或者称…. 「例文」Moreover， technology includes techniques , or ways to do things , as well as the manchines that may or may not be necessary to apply them. 「译文」再者，除机器外技术还包括技艺，即制作方法，而运用这些记忆并不一定都需要机器。 5.more…than…结构有三种译法：than连接肯定形式的从句时，该从句译为否定句；在比较的基础上表示选择关系时，可译为与其说…不如说；进行同类比较时，译成比…更. 「例文」The complexity of the human situation and injustice of the social order demand far more fundamental changes in the basic structure of society itself than some politicians are willing to admit in their speeches. 「译文」人类社会形势的复杂性和社会制度的不公正性要求对社会基本结构进行彻底变革，而一些政客口头上是很不愿意承认这一点的。 「分析」这是一个主从复合句，连词than前为主句，than后为从句。虽然本句是进行程度上的比较，但从句意义是否定的， 故译成否定句。 6.no more …than 与not… any more than no more …than 与not… any more than同义，不可简单地看成是more …than的否定形式。具体地说，这一结构可能是带有一定的感情色彩的否定形式，也可能是一种较特殊的类比形式。其翻译方法有二；表示同类否定比较时，可译为不比…更或都…同样不；表示比喻关系时，可译为正如…不，…也不. 「例文」The food on the ship was no better than on any other ship on which Billy had sailed. 「译文」这条船上(供应的)食品并不如比利工作过的其他船上的(食品)好。(括号里的词是可以省略的。) 「分析」这是一个主从复合句、主句是The food …no better , than on any other ship 是省略了比较对象的比较状语从句，从句on which引导的定语从句修饰先行词ship.本句中no more… than用于同类否定的比较，可译为不如…. 7.not so much as与其说…不如说… 「例文」Science moves forward, they say, not so much through the insights of great men of genius as because of more ordinary things like improved techniques and tools. 「译文」新学派科学家说，科学的发展与其说源于天才伟人的真知灼见，不如说源于改进了的技术和工具等等更为普遍的东西。 「分析」这是一个主从复合句。插入语they say是主句，Science moves forward,……and tools是宾语从句。not so much……as 连接的是状语，as引导的状语从句中，由于上下文清楚，主谓语都省略了，即as(sciencemoves forward.)because of……not so much……as也可译为与其说……不如说……，它所表达的逻辑关系和more than有相似之处，也是在比较的基础上进行判断和选择，被比较的事物也同属一个范畴。所不同的是，more……than表示前重后轻的逻辑关系，而not so much… as和less than表示前轻后重的逻辑关系，这两个结构中信息重心落在句尾，因此不必倒过来译，只须按原文的词序顺译即可。
