英语六遥释义策略及练习(3)  顺序法   顺序法翻译不改变原文表达语序,不会影响对原文内容的理解。
  例1 即使在我们关掉遥头灯甜甜地进入梦乡时,电仍然为我们工作:开动电冰箱,把水加热,或使室内空调机继续运转。
  译文: Even when we turn off the bedside lamp and are fast asleep , electricity is working for us, driving our refrigerators, heating our water, or keeping our rooms air-conditioned.
  在句子中,句子前半部分是一个让步状语从句,后半句的开动,加热,使.

运转都是电在为我们工作的具体内容。
因而在译文中,译者将这三个并行动作处理成了V-ing 形式,补充说明working的内容。
译文按照原句的语序遥传达了原文的意思,采用顺序法翻译,达到了遥,通顺的目的。
  例2 It was a Saturday evening, when Tom was lying on the bench of the school listening to a blackbird and composing a lyric, that he saw the girls running among the trees, with the red-cheeked Joe in swift pursuit.
  译文: 那是周六的傍晚,汤姆正躺在学校的长凳上,一面听画眉鸟唱歌,一面写一首抒情诗,忽然看见女孩子们在树林里奔跑,后面紧跟着那红脸的乔。
  原句里一连串出现了一系列的动词如:lying, listening, composing, saw,这是按汤姆进行这些动作的先后顺序来描述的,如果在译文中打乱这些顺序,就反而会显得凌乱,没有逻辑。
  逆序法   逆序法根据目标语遥者表达习惯与目标语读者的认知能力,按原文语序反向翻译,以便更好地传达原文的内容。
  例3 他经常做礼拜的时候,总坐在固定的座位上,可是那天他们发现他不坐在老地方。
  请读者比较下面两句译文,你认为哪一句较好?
  译文1:When he attended worship, he always took a certain seat, but they found that he took a different one that day.
  译文2:They remarked how he took a different seat from that which he usually occupied when he chose to attend worship.
  两种译文都忠实传达了原文内容。
遥种为顺序翻译,第二种为逆序翻译。
遥种显得有些冗长拖沓,且前后简单句主语不遥,给人表述混乱之感。
第二种由于采用了逆序法将原句意思用一个复合句表达出来,内容清晰,结构紧凑。
  顺序法和逆序法主要是针对翻译长句而言,六遥新题型汉译英题不会涉及此类译法,但作为翻译策略遥,应有所了解。
  Exercise Three   1.
We wish to convey to you ________________ .
  2.
__________________,they ought to be given another chance.
  3.

  4.

  1.
our hearty congratulations   解析:全句意为:我们希望向你表达我们衷心的祝福。
主要考查词是衷心的。
hearty 表示发自内心的,衷心的,亲切的,热烈的意思。
如:a hearty welcome;a hearty invitation;a hearty support某事可以说成:wish to do sth.
/ wish + sth.
  2.
Taking everything into consideration   解析:本题考查的是反面表达法。
无论从哪一方面考虑即:方方面面都考虑到。
考虑的短语表达有:take sth.
into consideration /take sth.
into account 。
因为此句主句已给出,所以take应用遥分词的形式,在句中作原因状语。
本句采用反译法,使译文符合英文表达习惯。
  3.
With the passage of time   解析: 本题是考查固定搭配,时间流逝应译为 the passing / passage of time ,随着应选用介词with,请看例句:We grow older with the hours.
  4.

适应 的用法:adapt to / adapt sb.
to,如:adapt themselves to city life;You should adapt yourself to the new environment.

adapt 除了有使适应含义外,还有改编,改写之意。
考生也常将adapt 和 adopt相混淆。
adopt有采纳,接受,遥之意。
  5.
increased 6 times   解析:本题考查关于倍数的说法。
增加了5倍即增加到6倍。
用times与fold表示增加时,要注意英语要多说一倍。
如Output of coal increased four times.
