1. Contrast Between English and ChinesePut the following into Chinese, pay special attention to the linguistic differences between English and Chinese.Sentence translation:1.Now that you are in for it, you must carry on.2.Cigarettes were the death of me.3.If the man who was seen to take an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday eveningdoes not wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No. 10 Broad Street.4.If you confer a benefit, never remember it; if you receive one, remember it always.5.Her sighs made it clear that she was unhappy.6.They had no running water where they lived. Nor did they have any conveniences of lifesuch as gas and electricity.7.Theatre will be reinvented and become much freer and more imaginative.8.Nowadays it is understood that a diet which contains nothing harmful may result inserious disease if certain important elements are missing.9.By the end of the war, 800 people had been saved by the organization, but at a cost of 200Belgian and French lives.10.It should be noted that he and she were extremely close allies.Passage translation:It seemed a point scored for her side when Joanne, panicked that her father-in-law would bungle the turnoff for the Pulaski Skyway, shattered the tip of her cigarette against the back of the seat and a live ash fell on the baby‟s belly. It went unnoticed for a second until Corinne screamed; then they all saw it, a little flea of fire glowing beside the perfect navel. Joanne jumped, and squealed with guilt, and flapped her hands and stamped her feet and hugged the baby against her, but the evidence could not be destroyed; a brown dot of char on the globe of immaculate skin. Corinne continued her screams, splicing them with shrill hard gasps of intake, while everyone rummaged through purses and pockets for Vaseline, butter, toothpaste – anything for an urgent. Mother had a tiny bottle of toilet water given her in a department store; Joanne dabbed some of this on, and in time Corinne, shaken by more and more widely spaced spasms of sobbing, mercifully dragged her injury with her into the burrow of sleep.2. Cohesion1.When Smith was drunk, he used to beat his wife and daughter; and the next morning, witha headache, he would rail at the world for its neglect of his genius, and abuse, with a gooddeal of cleverness, and sometimes with perfect reason, the fools, his brother painters.2.(When one individual inflicts bodily injury upon another, such injury that death results,we call the deed man-slaughter; when the assailant knew in advance that the injury would be fatal, we call his deed murder.) But when society places hundreds of proletarians in such a position that they inevitably meet a too early and an unnatural death, one which is quite as much a death by violence as that by the sword or bullet; when it deprives thousands of the necessaries of life, places them under conditions in which they cannot live – forces them, through the strong arm of the law, to remain in such conditions until that death ensues which is the inevitable consequence –knows that these thousands of victims must perish, and yet permits these conditions to remain, its deed is murder just as surely as the deed of the single individual; disguised, malicious murder, murder against which none can defend himself, which does not seem what it is, because no man sees the murderer, because the death of the victim seems a natural one, since the offence is more one of omission than that of commission. (But murder it remains.)3 Coherence1.In that infinitesimal fraction of time, inconceivable and immeasurable, during which thefirst atomic bomb converted a small part of its matter into the greatest burst of energy released on earth up to that time, Prometheus had broken his bonds and brought a new fire down to earth, a fire three million times more powerful than the original fire he snatched from the gods for the benefit of man some five hundred thousand years ago. 2.The chess board is the world, the pieces are the phenomena of the universe, the rules ofthe game are what we call the laws of nature. The player on the other side is hidden from us. We know that his play is always fair, just and patient. But we also know, to our cost, that he never overlooks a mistake, or makes the smallest allowance for ignorance.3.British newspapers –all of them some of the time, and some of them all the time –behave badly in two ways. They intrude unnecessarily and often hurtfully into people‟s privacy; and they publish inaccurate, sometimes made-up stories. The victims have little redress. If they are rich and the article is defamatory, they can sue for libel. Most cannot afford to do so, and even the rich cannot prevent an invasion of their privacy. Fierce competition, particularly between tabloid newspapers, leads to more feet in more doors.Translation of Idioms, Proverbs and SlangPlease translate the following passages:One afternoon I heard Imelda and her daughter arguing in the kitchen. Her daughter had quarreled with her husband‟s parents, and Imelda was insisting that she apologize to them.Her daughter o bjected. “But, Mama, I just can‟t swallow them, not even with honey. They talk so big until we need something; then they‟re too poor. So today when they wouldn‟t even lend enough to pay for a new bed, all I did was say something that I‟ve heard you say a h undred times: …If so grand, why so poor? If so poor, why so grand?‟”“Impertinent!” snorted Imelda. “Have I not also taught you, …what the tongue says, the neck pays for‟? I will not have it said that I could never teach my daughter proper respect for her elders. And before you go to beg their pardon, change those trousers for a dress. You know how your mother-in-law feels about pants on a woman. She always says, …what was hatched a hen must not try to be a rooster!‟”Her daughter made one more try. “But Mama, you often say, …If the saint is annoyed, don‟t pray to him until he gets over it.‟ Can‟t I leave it for tomorrow?”“No, no and no! Remember: …If the dose is nasty, swallow it fast.‟ You know, my child, you did wrong. But, …A gift is the key to open the door closed against you.‟ I have a cake in the oven that I was making for the Senora‟s dinner. I will explain to the senora. Now, dear, hurry home and make yourself pretty in your pink dress. By the time you get back, I will have the cake ready for you to take to your mother-in-law. She will be so pleased that she may make your father-in-law pay for the bed. Remember: …One hand washes the other, but together they wash the face.‟”。

高级英语第二期翻译练习参考译文OneFrom here, the train is to climb up onto the overpass and wobble its way through this dirty and messy block. Looking downward, in the window of a certain extremely dilapidated building, passengers may see by chance some mysterious-looking Orientals dressed in Japanese-style dark suits practicing karate. Looking further downward, they may spot an old black woman, wearing a dirty flowery skirt, with a big plastic bag in her hands, struggling to catch her breath as she totters along on fat legs swollen with gout. Should a passenger happen to be in a dreamy and imaginative mood, he might think he has blundered into Hollywood where a crime movie is just being photographed.很多人拥有获得幸福的全部物质条件，即健康的身体和丰足的收入，但他们却非常不快乐。

白墙、黑瓦、宝蓝色的漏窗泛出晶莹的光辉，里面的灯光从漏窗中透出来，那光线也变得绿莹莹的。
清风吹来，树枝摇曳，灯光闪烁变幻，好像有一个童话般的世界深藏在围墙的里面。
抬起头来从墙顶上往里看，可以看到主建筑的黑色屋顶翘在夜空里，围墙也变得不像墙了，它带着和主建筑相似的风格进入了整体结构。
附近的马路也变样了，好像是到了什么风景区或文化宫的入口。
（分数：2.00）__________________________________________________________________________________________正确答案：(正确答案：Seen dimly through the moonlight, the boundary wall looked enchanting and full of poetry. The white wall, black tiles and sapphire windows were all suffused with sparkling brilliance while the light that filtered out through the patterned blocks was transformed to a shining emerald green. A light breeze blew, swaying the tree branches and making the rays of light glimmer and dance as if a fairytale world were hidden deep within. Above the wall one could see the black roof of the building inside jutting into the night air, so that the wall suddenly seemed to transform, melting into the main building whose style it matched to perfection. The nearby road seemed to have changed too, as if it were the entrance to a scenic area or a cultural palace.) 解析：解析：1．本段为描写文，采用一般过去时或一般现在时为总体时态均可，但必须注意整个段落的时态要一致。
翻译Unit 1李明是学化学的，性格开朗幽默，颇有魅力，但英语成绩不佳，每次只能勉强及格。
老师警告他，英语不好会阻碍他拿奖学金，并亮出了自己的王牌：如果李明不努力，就让他考试不过关。
老师还告诉他，学习英语不能只为了文凭，否则他即使大学毕业，也还是个半文盲。
李明虽然保持镇定，但他明白，他的学业生涯正在攸关之际，必须安心下来埋头学习，坚持不懈。
Li Ming was a chemistry major, a charmer noted for his easygoing and humorous temperament. However, his English was so poor that he always barely got by. The teacher admonishedhim that his poor English would be an impediment to scholarship. What’s more, she showedher trump card: if Li Ming did not work hard. She would flunk him. He was also told that he should not learn English merely for the sake of his diploma. otherwise, evenafter graduation from university, he would still be semiliterate. Although Li Ming did notlose his composure, he was well aware that he had to settle down to work and follow through because his academic life was at stake.Unit2我的朋友琳达接受过良好的教育，既美丽又端庄，三十好几依然没有人向她求婚。
汉译英及实用翻译1-8周练习段落1. 李广射石广出猎，见草中石，以为虎而射之，中石。
没簇，视之，石也，而复更射之，终不能复入石矣。
（《史记〈李将军列传〉》Li Kuang was out hunting one time when he spied a rock in the grass which he mistook for a tiger. He shot an arrow at the rock and hit it (with such force ) that the tip of the arrow embedded itself in the rock. Later, when he discovered that it was a rock, he tried shooting at it again, but he was unable to pierce it a second time. (Burton Watson)2. 孟母三迁孟子是一位智慧、善良、不与邪恶势力妥协的人。
小时候他住在墓地附近，常把自己看到的送丧和埋葬的礼仪学来作为嬉戏。
孟母说：“这里不是教养我儿子的地方。
”后来他们迁居街市，孟子便学起商贩做买卖的样子来。
孟母说：“这里也不是教养我儿子的地方。
”结果他们搬到学校旁边住，孟子耳濡目染，自然而然地学起学生礼让、读书的举止。
孟母看在眼里，开心地说：“这才是我儿子应该住的地方呀！”3. 名片在巴黎，名目繁多的酒会，冷餐会是广交朋友的好机会。
在这种场合陌生人相识，如果是亚洲人，他们往往开口之前先毕恭毕敬地用双手把自己的名片呈递给对方，这好像是不可缺少的礼节。
然而，法国人一般却都不大主动递送名片，双方见面寒暄几句，甚至海阔天空地聊一番也就各自走开，只有当双方谈话投机，希望继续交往时，才会主动掏出名片。
二话不说先递名片反倒有些勉强4. 画蛇添足楚有祠者，赐其舍人卮酒。
片段翻译:1)I am lonely only when I am overtired, when I have worked too long without abreak, when for the time being I feel empty and need filling up. And I am lonely sometimes when I come back home after a lecture trip, when I have seen a lot of people and talked a lot, and am full to the brim with experience that needs to be sorted out.Then for a little while the house feels huge and empty, and I wonder where myself is hiding. It has to be recaptured slowly by watering the plants, perhaps, and looking again at each one as though it were a person, by feeding the two cats, by cooking a meal.只有在我过度劳累的时候,在我长时间不间断地工作的时侯，在我感到内心空虚、需要充实的时候，我才会感到寂寞。
有时，外出演讲回来，见了许多人，讲了许多话，心中满是纷乱的体验需要整理，偶而也会觉得孤独。
于是有那么一会儿，我会感到整个房子非常大，空荡荡的。
不知此时的自我又藏匿于何处。
这时，我会给花草浇浇水，挨个瞅瞅，仿佛它们是活生生的人一样，或是喂喂两只小猫，亲手做顿饭菜，这样自我就慢慢地重新找回。
2)Opera is expensive: that much is inevitable. But expensive things are notinevitably the province of the rich unless we abdicate society's power of choice.We can choose to make opera, and other expensive forms of culture, accessible to those who cannot individually pay for it. The question is: why should we? Nobody denies the imperatives of food, shelter, defense, health and education. But even ina prehistoric cave, mankind stretched out a hand not just to eat, drink or fight, butalso to draw. The impulse towards culture, the desire to express and explore the world through imagination and representation is fundamental. In Europe, thisdesire has found fulfillment in the masterpieces of our music, art, literature andtheatre. These masterpieces are the touchstones for all our efforts; they are thetouchstones for the possibilities to which human thought and imagination mayaspire; they carry the most profound messages that can be sent from one human to another.聆听歌剧，无疑昂贵至极。
英译中练习1Scientific and technological advances are enabling us to comprehend the furthest reaches of the cosmos, the most basic constituents of matter, and the miracle of life. At the same time, today, the actions, and inaction, of human beings imperil not only life on the planet, but the very life of the planet. Globalization is making the world smaller, faster and richer. Still, 9/11, avian flu, and Iran remind us that a smaller, faster world is not necessarily a safer world. Our world is bursting with knowledge---but desperately in need of wisdom. Now, when sound bites are getting shorter, when instant messages crowd out essays, and when individual lives grow more frenzied, college graduates capable of deep reflection are what our world needs. For all these reasons I believed and I believe even more strongly today in the unique and irreplaceable mission of universities.英译中练习2There are few words which are used more loosely than the word 'civilization'. What does it mean? It means a society based upon the opinion of civilians. It means that violence, the rule of warriors and despotic chiefs, the conditions of camps and warfare, of riot and tyranny, give place to parliaments where laws are made, and independent courts of justice in which over long periods those laws are maintained. That is civilization and in its soil grow continually freedom, comfort and culture. When civilization reigns in any country, a wider and less harassed life is afforded to the masses of the people, the traditions of the past are cherished, and the inheritance bequeathed to us by former wise or valiant men becomes a rich estate to be enjoyed and used by all.英译中练习3In a calm sea every man is a pilot.But all sunshine without shade, all pleasure without pain, is not life at all. Take the lot of the happiest - it is a tangled yarn. Bereavements and blessings, one following another, make us sad and blessed by turns. Even death itself makes life more loving. Men come closest to their true selves in the sober moments of life, under the shadows of sorrow and loss.In the affairs of life or of business, it is not intellect that tells so much as character, not brains so much as heart, not genius so much as self-control, patience, and discipline, regulated by judgment.I have always believed that the man who has begun to live more seriously within begins to live more simply without. In an age of extravagance and waste, I wish I could show to the world how few the real wants of humanity are.To regret one's errors to the point of not repeating them is true repentance. There is nothing noble in being superior to some other man. The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self.英译中练习4Birds and DeathThe bird, however hard the frost may be, flies briskly to his customary roosting-place, and, with beak tucked into hiswing, falls asleep. He has no apprehensions; only the hot blood grows colder and colder, the pulse feebler as he sleeps, and at midnight, or in the early morning, he drops from his perch---death.Yesterday he lived and moved, responsive to a thousand external influences, reflecting earth and sky in his small brilliant brain as in a looking-glass; also he had a various language, the inherited knowledge of his race, the faculty of flight, by means of which he could shoot, meteor-like, across the sky, and pass swiftly from place to place; and with it such perfect control over all his organs, such marvelous certitude in all his motions, as to be able to drop himself plumb down from the tallest tree-top , or out of the void air , on to a slender spray , and scarcely cause its leaves to tremble . Now , on this morning , he lies stiff and motionless ; if you were to take him up and drop him from your hand , he would fall to the ground like a stone or a lump of clay-so easy and swift is the passage from life to death in wild nature! But he was never miserable英译中练习5Hour in the SunJohn H.Bradley"…I was rich,if not in money,in sunny hours and summer days."--Henry David ThoreauWhen Thoreau wrote that line,he was thinking of the Walden.Pond he knew as a boy.Woodchoppers and the Iron Horse had not yet greatly damaged the beauty of its setting.A boy could go to the pond and lie on his back against the seat of a boat,lazily drfiting from shore to shore while the loons dived and the swallows dipped around him.Thoreau loved to recall such sunny hours and summer days"when idleness was the most attractive and productive business."I too was a boy in love with a pond,rich in sunny hours and summer days.Sun and summer are still what the always were,but the boy and the pond changed.The boy,who is now a man,no longer finds much time for idle drifting.The pond has been annexed by a great city.The swamps where herons once hunted are now drained and filled with hourses .The bay where water lilies quietly floated is now a harbor for motor boats.In short,everything that the boy loved no longer exists-- except in the man's memory of it.英译中练习6The old lady had always been proud of the great rose-tree in her garden, and was fond of telling how it had grown from a cutting she had brought years before from Italy, when she was first married. She and her husband had been travelling back in their carriage from Rome （it was before the time of railways ）and on a bad piece of road south of Siena they had broken down, and had been forced to pass the night in a little house by the road-side. The accommodation was wretched of course; she had spent a sleepless night, and rising early had stood, wrapped up, at her window, with the cool air blowing on her face, to watch the dawn. She could still, after all these years, remember the blue mountains with the bright moon above them, and how a far-off town on one of the peaks had gradually grown whiter and whiter, till the moon faded, the mountains were touched with the pink of the rising sun, and suddenly the town was lit as by an illumination, one window after another catching and reflecting the sun's beam, till at last the whole little city twinkled and sparkled up in the sky like a nest of stars英译中练习7Some people insist that only today and tomorrow matter.But how much poorer we would be if we really lived by that rule! So much of what we do today is frivolous and futile and soon forgotten.So much of what we hope to do tomorrow never happens.The past is the bank in which we store our most valuable possession: the memories that give meaning and depth to our lives.Those who truly treasure the past will not bemoan the passing of the good old days,because days enshrined in memory are never lost.Death itself is powerless to still a remembered voice or erase a remembered smile.And for one boy who is now a man, there is a pond which neither time nor tide can change,where he can still spend a quiet hour in the sun.英译中练习1参考译文科技进步正在使我们能够探索宇宙的边陲、物质最基本的成分及生命的奇迹。
