【考点解析】

中文是一种动态的语言,而英文偏静态。这就决定了两种语言在表达上的差异,中文多习题用动词,而英文则多用名词和介词。把握了这一点的情况下,我们在翻译的时候,一个句子当出现多个动词时,可以用并列结构来呈现,也可以用名词性短语来替换,例如,原文中提到“这一时期,经济发达,商业繁荣,社会秩序稳定,甚至边境也对外开放”时,中间的这四个动宾短语“经济发达,商业繁荣,社会秩序稳定,甚至边境也对外开放”,就可以改用名词性短语来替换,即为“developed economy, commercial prosperity, stable social order, and even the border open to the outside world”。此外,汉译英有些表达,有些高大上的词不会表达,我们可以用稍为简单的词来替换,考场上要随机应变,考场下要夯实基础,注重积累。祝各位考生朋友顺利通过英语六级考试!
