大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习（11）
1. This is yet _________________ (两国人民的又一个共同点).
2. His scientific works _______________(在英语国家得到广泛阅读). 3. Revolution means the emancipation of the productive forces，_____________(改革也是解放生产力)
4.He is optimistic ________________(对现时信息产业的发展状况).
5.Work in all fields should be subordinated to and ________________(服务于经济发展的进程). 1. another common point between the people of our two countries
解析：本题考查通过增补介词使译文的意思更完整。虽然原文没有和between相对应的词，但是\"共同点\"是两国人民之间在某方面进行比较的结果，所以增补 between之后，符合英语表达习惯。增词法也是汉译英中常用技巧之一，再如：她以教书为业。(She is a teacher by occupation.)我已重新考虑了那件事。(I've had second thought on that matter.) 2. were widely read in English-speaking countries
解析：若是按照字面翻译，这句话很可能被译为were widely read in English countries。但是原文中\"英语国家\"的含义是\"讲英语的国家\"。这体现了英汉表达差异。请考生看下面这句话的英译：我卖掉了彩电。/I sold out my color TV. 这句译文错误在于，没弄清\"彩电\"的含义。\"彩电\"有两层意思：一是指具体的实物，即彩色电视机color TV set;二是指屏幕上出现的影像，即彩色电视color TV。而句子中卖掉的只能是机器，具体的实物。 3. and so does reform
解析：本题意为：革命是解放生产力，改革也是解放生产力。考点有二：第一，考查词性转移。原文中\"解放\"用作动词，\"生产力\"作宾语。译文中处理成名词短语 \"对生产力的解放\"。第二，考查省译法。我们不能把原文译成and reform also means the emancipation of the productive forces，这种结构显得臃肿累赘。为避免重复，可以选用and so does...来代替这个动宾结构。 4. about the present development of information industry
解析：\"对......表示乐观\"可以用句型be optimistic about sth.。这句话不能译成about the status of the present development of information industry。\"状况\"是一个范畴词，没有实际含义，可省略不译。
5. serve the economic development
大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习（12）
1.__________________ （直到失去健康） that people know the value of health.
2.The bag was stuffed____________________( 脏衣服） 3.___________________ （很多朋友不在）， we decided to put the meeting off.
4._______________________ （给我印象最深的） were her liveliness and sense of humor. 5.There engines are___________________ （不如我们制造的那些发动机功率大） . 1. It is not until they lose it
大家对not until/until的用法掌握比较好，不过比较少人用it来替代下文的health，答案的替代比较简洁，翻译中应该避免重复使用同一个词。
2.with dirty clothes 这里主要是考察be stuffed with （被填满）的用法，这是一个四级单词，是搭配问题。
3.With many friends absent 这里主要是考察对absent adj./vi./absence n.缺席的各种表达，如果按照原文“不在”翻译，显然比较生硬且与下文不符，因此要善于根据上下文推断原文意思。
4.What impressed me the most名词性从句what impressed me the most，有部分沪友遗漏了其中的“the”，表示最高级一般都要使用定贯词the，如the largest、the hardest等。 5. less powerful than the ones we have made
很多人都用比较级，可是却忽略了比较级是用在形容词/副词上的，如faster、bigger、more beautiful等。因此这里应该用power的形容词powerful，另要强调机器是我们制造的－we have made.

解析：分号之前表示原因：因为我不敢确定是否想学这门课程，所以能否让我第一周旁听看看是否喜欢它？“旁听”英语里说成sit in，如：sit in a lecture（旁听一个讲座）.另外，sit in也可以表示静坐，如：There were reports of students sitting in at several universities to pretest against racial discrimination.（多次报道几所大学学生静坐抗议种族歧视.） 2. which they hope will help solve the case
解析：我们把中午句子的含义补全就是“警察希望这些新证据能有助于该案的处理”，“新证据”已经在前文中出现，那么在这里我们需要把“能有助于该案的处理”译成后置定语来修饰new evidence.on the trail of意思是“在寻找”. 3. has increased more than fourfold
解析：本题是考查数字的译法，可以参考前面的节目.本句还要指出的是as在非限制性定语从句中的应用：as引导非限制性定语从句时，其先行项通常是整个主句.As从句的位置很灵活，可以
出现在句首，句中（如本句）或句末，并与主句之间用逗号隔开.如：As he pointed out，the steady rise in quality owes much to the improvement of our equipment.（正如他指出的，质量的不断提高在很大程度上取决于设备的更新.）The night has turned cold，as is usual around here.（夜晚变得很冷，在这一带经常如此.）
4. who will take over as president of the Foundation
解析：这是wh－词引导的从句在句中作表语.本题的考点是：中文可以有“接任……的职位”的搭配，英文却不能说take over the position of，因为take over本身就包括“接任某职”的含义，因此只要将某一职位的名称译出来即可，用take over as…来表达.“该基金会”在句中是特指，因而“Foundation”的首字母要大写.
5. appearances are sometimes deceiving
解析：考生要看起来这是一个并列复合句.其规则之一是，疑问部分的主语要和后面句子的主语和谓语在人称、数、性、时态方面保持一致.题干部分已经给出 aren’t they？因此，“外表”要用复数形式，谓语动词也要用复数形式，不能说appearance is sometimes deceiving.
大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习（14）
1.When an opportunity comes, _________________ (伴之而来的是成功的希望)but never realizes it on its own.
2. If you want to _______________(取得成就或实现雄心壮志)，you must work hard，make efforts and get prepared.
3. The successful person _____________(总是作好充分准备)to meet opportunities as they duly arrive.
4.Anthropologists(人类学家)have discovered that fear，happiness，sadness，and surprise ______________(都会行之于色)，which is a universal phenomenon.(这...有点难.)
5.Long before children are able to speak or understand a language，they can communicate with adults ________________(通过面部表情和靠发出噪声). 1. it brings a promise
解析：这是一句非常富有哲理的话，意思是\"当机遇来临的时候，伴之而来的是成功的希望，然而希望不会自己实现\"。句子需填入部分\"伴之而来的是成功的希望\" 看似表达非常复杂，其实意思很简单，即：机遇会带来希望，那么对这个句子的翻译就简单了，为避免重复，\"机遇\"可以用it代替。\"成功的希望\"用名词 promise，如：a young man full of promise(大有前途的年轻人)。这个词的常用意思是\"诺言，承诺\"。大家要注意，少数情况下我们会碰到一些看似结构复杂的句子，但只要读懂字里行间就可以化复杂为简单。这也是英汉互译时的一个必备技巧。 2. achieve something or fulfill your ambitions
解析：本题考查短语搭配。\"取得成就\"可以有这样的表达：make achievements或achieve something，前者\"成就\"作名词，后者作动词。\"实现雄心壮志\"中\"实现\"可选用realize，fulfill，此外make...come true，carry...out也有实现梦想/理想之意。 3. always makes adequate preparations 解析：\"作准备\"的表达有：prepare...for;make preparations for...。\"充分的\"可选形容词有：enough，sufficient，adequate，而well-prepared多在句中充当表语成分，如：His counsel was well-prepared.(他的律师作了充分准备。)全句的后半部分meet opportunities也可以作为考点，它表示\"抓住机遇\"，并不是\"看见机遇\"。meet还有\"达到要求、满足愿望或意见一致\"等意。如：The firm has done its best to meet us on that point.(公司在那方面已尽了最大的努力来满足我们的要求。) 4. are reflected in facial expressions
解析：\"行之于色\"是一个古汉语表达，正如在第一题给大家说到，有时候在汉译英时会遇到一些看似复杂的语言，但只要读懂字里行间意译即可。\"行之于色 \"是说人内心的喜怒哀乐通过面部表情都可以反映出来，因此联系前文就不难译出：are reflected in facial expressions。 5. through facial expressions and by making noises
解析：本题意为：在孩子们能够表达或理解一门语言之前的很长一段时间，他们靠面部表情和
发出噪声和大人们交流。\"通过面部表情和靠发出噪声\"在句中充当方式状语，表示某种途径或方法。\"面部表情\"是一个名词短语，前加介词through，而\"发出噪声\"make noise是一个带有动作性的动词短语，因此通过发出噪声应选用by+doing的结构。同样是表示方法途径，前面的介词选择却有不同，考生要注意比较
大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习（15）
1. It was essential that _______________(我们在月底前签订合同).
2. _______________(家庭人口多好还是人口少好)is a very popular topic，which is often talked about not only by city residents but by farmers as well.
3. We must _____________(用一切可能的办法来帮助他们).
4. We ________________(尽情地吃了一顿)at the new restaurant last Friday.
5. To most of the travelers，________________(衣、食、住、行)are all important elements. 1. We sign the contract by the end of the month 解析：当表示愿望，要求，命令等含义的形容词如 advisable，appropriate，better，best，desirable，essential，fitting， imperative，important，impossible，incredible，insistent，natural，necessary， obligatory，preferable，proper，ridiculous，strange，surprising，urgent，vital 出现在形式主语句中时，从句要用虚拟语气。\"签订合同\"英语固定说法是sign the contract。\"在月底前\"要用by the end of，而不是at the end of。
2. Whether a large family is good or not
解析：如果按照中文顺序逐一翻译就会得出译文Whether a large family is good thing or a small family is a good thing，这并没有语法错误，但不符合英语表达习惯。\"家庭人口多好还是少好\"可以理解为：家庭人口多是好事?还是坏事?所以这里我们可以采用反译法，将\"还是人口少好\"转移为汉语意思为\"(人口多是好)还是不好\"的英文表达--or not，使译文简洁明了，避免罗嗦。 3. help them in every way possible
解析：本题最有可能出现的译文是：use very possible way to help them。这样译文不能说错，但不是最间接、最好的翻译。英语里，通常把方式状语放在谓语部分之后，所以可得出译文：help them in every possible way。原句\"可能\"出现在被修饰语\"办法\"之前。根据英文习惯，\"可能\"的对应词possible应该放在所修饰的中心词way之后，所以有了最终译文：help them in every way possible。 4. ate to our hearts' content
解析：本题让考生们困扰的是如何翻译\"一顿\"这个量词。其实，\"一顿\"是汉语特有的量词表达，是对\"吃\"这个动作的补充说明。\"在那家新餐馆吃\"就暗含了\"吃了一顿\"的含义。英语里没有\"一顿\"的对应词。一般来说，可以不译，不影响全句意思的表达。\"尽情地\"是个固定搭配，可译成：to one's heart's content或to the top of one's bent。
5. food，clothing，shelter，and transportation 解析：本题要求考生熟悉汉英习语在转移时的异同。有些汉语习语在转移成英语时不需要变换位置。如：日日夜夜(day and night);但也有一些需要改变前后顺序，如：新旧(old and new);水火(fire and water);田径(track and field);钢铁(iron and steel);贫富(rich and poor);血肉(flesh and blood)。请注意本题中哪些词语的英译改变了顺序。
大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习（16）
例1 ____________（将领你们去参观我们的新车间）by the secretary. 译文：You will be shown our new workshop. 简评：如果这句话不是划线填内容，你完全可以将它翻译成The secretary will show you our new workshop。正是因为题型是补全句子，这就给翻译带来了一定的难度，你必须去适应题型要求而不是让题型来适应你。让我们看看译文已给出部分：by the secretary显然是一个被动语态特征，“秘书”在译文里已经由原来的主语变成了译文句子的补足成分。所以，题目是暗示我们要把原句中“你们”转换成译句里的主语，这样才符合出题要求。
例2 You __________（我们期待你能组织贸易推广活动）this time. 译文：are expected to organize the trade publicity campaigns.
简评：根据题目可推知全句意思是：我们期望你能组织这次的贸易推广活动。中文句子主语、谓语、宾语分别是：我们、期望、你。但是在英文译文的给出部分中我们看到句子以you开头，也就是说“你被期望能组织这次贸易推广活动”。中文的宾语变成了英文的主语，这就要求我们在翻译时要使用被动语态。全句完整答案是：You are expected to organize the trade publicity campaigns this time.
2）当汉语句以“我们”、“人们”、“大家”等泛指性代词作主语时，在翻译成英文的时候常常可以忽略主语不译，并把英文译句处理成被动语态。处理后的英文译句往往带有 know，see，find，say，suppose，estimate，report，suggest，stress，consider， expect，admit，point，understand 等动词。
例3 如果原子失去一个或多个电子，我们就说这个原子带正电荷。
译文：If one or more electrons are removed，the atom is said/believed/thought to be positively charged. 简评：这句话是一个条件从句。即：在原子失去一个或多个电子的情况下，这个电子带正电荷。“我们就说这个原子带正电荷”可理解为“这个原子被认为/ 被确信/ 被说成是带正电荷”。那么根据前面所说的原则，我们在翻译时可以将泛指性主语“我们”省略不译，并使用被动语态。
从这个例子里我们还可以看出，在科技文章中，根据英语表达习惯我们应当多采用被动语态，以强调事物的客观性。
例4 人们采用各种措施来防止腐蚀。
译文：All kinds of measures are taken to prevent corrosion.
简评：这句话可以按原文译成主动态，即：People have taken all kinds of measures to prevent corrosion。也可以用被动语态来翻译——All kinds of measures are taken to prevent corrosion。两者比较而言，被动态译文更突出表明所有、种种措施已经付诸实施，all kinds of measures得到强调，而主动态译法只是平铺直叙，重点不突出。
此外，汉语句子中有“据说”、“据了解”、“据报道”、“据估计”、“据传言”等词语时，可以酌情译成相应的英语被动句，如：It is supposed that（据推测……），It is said that（据说……），It is estimated that（据估计……），It is calculated that（预计……），It is reported that（据报道……），It is suggested that（有人建议），It is stressed that（有人强调……），It is thought that（有人认为……），It is considered that（有人认为……），It is expected that（据期望……），It is well known that（众所周知……），It must be admitted that（必须承认……），It must be pointed out that（必须指出……），It is understood that（谁都知道……），It may be safety said that（可以有把握地说……）等。 例5 据了解，这个地区有丰富的自然资源。
译文：The area is known to be rich in natural resources. 例6 众所周知，自然光其实是由许多种颜色构成。
译文：It is well known that natural light is actually made up of many colors.
大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习（17）
1. He is ________________ (他与其说是个学者)as a writer.
2. The parents should also set the kids free _______________ (以便他们自己做选择).
3. Some freshmen _____________(打定主意)to pursue a master's degree after undergraduate studies.
4. So it is essential for the students _____________(深入社会实践)in order to learn something that they can't get in class.
5.In order to improve the competence of state-run enterprises，the central government ________________(已经实行了一系列改革)，among which is cutting down the staff. 1. not so much a scholar
解析：本句意为：与其说他是个学者不如说是个作家。考查的是\"与其......倒不如......\"的句型。
句中所给部分已有as，所以最好用 not so much...as...。如：In many cases，nursing is not so much a job as a way of life.(在许多情况下，护理与其说是是一件工作倒不如说是一种生活方式。) 2. to make their own choices
解析：考查目的状语\"以便\"的英文表达，正确答案可以是：in order to/to/so as to+动词，也可以用in order/so+that从句。具体要根据字数要求定。 3. make up their minds
解析：本句意为：许多大一新生打定主意要在本科毕业后继续争取硕士学位。\"打定主意、决定下来\"可选用：make up one's mind to do，be determined to do，decide to do。题中pursue表示坚持不懈地追求，如：She pursued the study of English for five years.(她持续不断地学了五年英语。) 4. to participate in social practice
解析：本句意为：对学生而言，有必要深入社会实践，从而学到课堂上学不到的东西。\"深入\"事实上是指学生要参与社会实践，因此确切译法是to participate，\"社会实践\"可译成social practice或social activity。
5. has implemented a series of reforms 解析：本句意为：为了提高国有企业的竞争力，政府已经实行了一系列改革，其中一项是裁员。这里大家要记住\"国有企业\"的表达，而\"外资企业\"应译为 oversea-funded enterprise或foreign-based company。\"实行\"可选用implement，carry out，由于是\"一系列\"改革，因此reform要用复数形式。另外\"已经\"暗示句子应该用完成时态。
大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习（18）
1. _______________ （我们确定搞两个开放）：namely, to open up both externally and internally. 2. _____________ （不用说）that he’s been there before.
3. _____________ （真想不到）that he had done a thing like that. 4.Premier Zhou ________________（一心想着人民的利益）. 5. ____________（她非常不情愿地）that she agreed to help. 1. We have decided on an open policy in two respects
解析：本题考查了语序的调整。“两个开放”在原句中充当宾语，但是英语却不能说two opens，只能理解成“在两个方面实行开放政策”。因此，“搞两个开放”应处理成“动词＋宾语＋状语”的结构。另外，“搞”字在英语中没有一个绝对的对等词，而且“搞”在汉语是一个动词，经常带一些宾语、状语、补语，这些成分和“搞”字一起传情达意。读者在英译的时候应注意对“搞”字的准确翻译。如： 你到底在搞什么？
What the hell are you doing？
大量的数学作业搞得我头昏脑胀。
A great number of math exercises make my head swim. 你最好耐心一些，否则会把事情搞僵了。
You’d better be patient, or you might bring things to a deadlock. 这兄弟俩看起来很像，别把他们搞错了。
The two brothers are very much alike. Don’t mistake one for another. 他思路搞通了，精神也就愉快了。
Once he straightened out his ideas，he became cheerful again. 这孩子把房间搞得一团糟。
The kid made the room a total mess. 2. It’s needless to say
解析：考生应留意否定词译法，即在have，there be及情态动词后面加no或not，在实义动词前面加上do或does not，在某些省略句中加上no。本题考查的是派生词用法。和汉语不同，英语单词词根可以加上前缀或后缀以改变单词本义，如 ab-，dis-，im-，ir-，il-，mal-，non-，un-，under-，less等都是表示否定意义的词缀。 3. It was unexpected
解析：考生应注意照顾前后时态一致，考查的是“形式主语it＋形容词＋that-从句”的结构。如果题干改为________（真想不到）his doing a thing like that，答案就要相应改为fancy。fancy one’s doing带有更强烈的语气，惊讶程度也比it’s unexpected高。 4. has always had the interests of the people at heart
解析：英语里“一心想着”、“总是想着”可以用短语always think about、have sth.. at heart、be preoccupied with sth. 来表达。但是它们的感情色彩是截然不同的。第一个短语是一般性用语，感情色彩为中性；第二个短语感情色彩为褒义；第三个短语往往后接不好的事情，是贬义词。如： 我总是想着一放假就早点回家。
I always think about going back home earlier once on vacation. 王子一心想着复仇。
The Prince was preoccupied with revenge. 5. It was very reluctantly
解析：本题较难。考查的并不是形式主语句，二是一个强调句型。本句可以说成：She agreed to help very reluctantly. 原句的需填补部分是对状语的强调，以突出“极不情愿”这一信息中心。强调句用途很广，我们可以根据上下文和语义意图分别强调句子的主语、间接宾语、直接宾语、状语等
大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习（19）
1. We need not only be under various external pressures, but also _____________ （也要面对内心
的困惑）.
2. Would you _______________（愿意来参加我们的晚会）on Friday 3. After the operation， _____________（他的身体很健康）. 4.－ Will you be going back home for the Spring Festival？ － ___________（当然啦）.
5. ________________（我只发现了几个错误）in your composition. 1. to be in the face of the internal perplexities
解析：本句意为：我们不仅要承受种种外界压力，还要面对内心的困惑。这句话考查的是not only…but also的结构。该结构的前后部分应该保持一致，前半部分用的是not only to，后半部分就应该是but also to。另外，前半句用了under pressure来表达承受压力，后半句最好也用一个介词短语来表达面对困惑之意，与前文相呼应。我们知道，face既可以用作动词也可以用作名词，in the case of意为“面对，面临”。其实全句有三处相对应出现的词或表达，他们是：not only to & but also to；be under & be in the face of；external pressures & internal perplexities。英语里比较注重这种并行结构。 2. come to our evening party
解析：考查“参加”的表达。Join往往是指参加俱乐部或者协会，如：join a health club；join the Communist Party，或者用join sb表示参加到某人的活动中来。事实上，常常与party搭配的动词是come或者go。如go to a wild party，或come to a Christmas Party。“参加”的另外一些用法有：参加会议（attend the meeting）；参加某项活动（take part in the activity）；参加考试（take/ sit /do the examination）；参加礼拜（attend worship）；参加社会活动（get about social activities）。 3. he is in good health/he’s healthy
解析：本题看似简单，实际在考查汉英表达习惯差异问题。“他的身体很健康”是一句典型的汉语表达，然而英语里表示某人身体好的时候不用“身体”作主语，直接用“某人”作主语。如果译成his body is healthy就可谓多此一举了。“身体健康”还可以用to be in good condition。 4. Sure/ Certainly
解析：本题也是一道考查汉英表达差异的题。很多考生不假思索地译成Of course。其实，以英语为母语的人使用of course的频率要比中国的考生低得多，只有在回答一些总所周知的问题或表示反语口吻时才说of course。因为of course后面隐含一句话是“当然我知道啦！难道我是一个傻瓜吗？”因此，of course带有挑衅的意味，语气很不友好。在使用方面，sure或certainly语气会婉转很多。同时of course not也具挑衅的意味。正常情况下的说法是certainly not。 5. I found a few mistakes
解析：few和little意为“几乎没有”，a few和a little意为“还有一些，有几个”。但若在a few和a little加上only，意思就变了。即only a few＝few，而only a little＝little。如：I can have only a little more.（我几乎不能再吃了。）She made only a few mistakes.（她几乎全对。）因此，如果译成I found only a few mistakes，意思就恰恰相反，“你的作文我几乎没发现错误”。这道题说明在汉译英时不能完全对应汉字翻译，而要考虑英语使用习惯和词语搭配。
大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习（20）
1._______________ (通过体育锻炼)，we can always stay healthy.
2.According to the scientific research , _____________ (听音乐能使我们放松).Is this really true? 3.______________ (我们绝对不能)ignore the value of knowledge.
4.As is known to all, ______________ (假冒伪劣商品)harm the interests of consumers.
5.Faced with failure,some people can stand up to it, _____________ (从失败中汲取教训)and try hard to fulfill what they are determined to do. 1. By taking exercises
解析：通过锻炼，我们可以保持健康。其实这题答案不止一个。“锻炼”可以用名词也可以用动词短语。“通过”可以用by表示方式，through 表示途径。 By taking exercises /Through exercises。往往by用于“by + doing”，而through后接名词哦。 2. listening to music enables us to feel relaxed
解析：“听音乐”在句中作主语，“听”应当处理成动名词形式。“能使我们放松”很多同学会采用 can make us feel relaxed的结构。其实，enable就有“能够使某人……”的含义，注意enable sb. to do 的表达。
3. On no account can we
解析：本题是强调语气，强调“决不能”，所以联想到on no account ,by no means,at no time,in no case等。不管用哪一个，都要注意它们是含有否定的意味的，因此在置于句首时应使用倒装语序。 4. fake and inferior commodities
解析：“假冒伪劣商品”包含两层含义：一是假货，二是次品，在翻译成英文的时候应该注意两层含义的正确译法。“假冒”不能用false而应选择fake，“次品”可以说inferior表示质量差，也可以用commodity of low quality。 5. draw useful lessons from it
解析：句意为：面对失败，有的人能够顽强抵抗，从中吸取教训，努力实现他们的目标。本句由三个并列的谓语成分构成，谓语动词分别是stand up to“汲取”和try。“汲取教训”正确表达为draw a lesson from。然而我们又能从全句判断，从失败中吸取教训是为了将来能够更好地实现目标，因此加上修饰语useful，使内容更明确。
大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习（21）
1.Everyone has his inherent ability ,________________ (只是很容易被习惯所掩盖). 2.The importance of traffic safety , _________________ (无论如何强调都不为过). 3.In my opinion , ______________ (打电动玩具既浪费时间也有害健康).
4.There is no doubt that ______________ (近视是一个很严重的问题)among the youth of our country.
5.According to my personal experience , ___________________ (微笑已带给我许多好处). 1. which is easily concealed by habits
解析：每个人都有与生俱来的能力，只是很容易被习惯所掩盖。本题的难点在于对动词\"掩盖\"的选择。这里的\"掩盖\"是抽象含义，并不是像 cover那样能找到真实的掩盖物，所以应该选择conceal，常用搭配由：conceal...from。另外，这句话是一个非限制性定语从句。句子需填补内容是对 ability的补充说明，\"能力\"是中心词。因此，要用which引导这个非限制性定语从句。 2. can’t be overemphasized / can’t be emphasized too much
解析：本句考查的是\"再......也不为过的\"的说法。英语句型是：cannot + do sth. + too much 或 cannot over-do，如：He is so excellent that we cannot praise him too much.(他是这样的优秀，我们怎样称赞他都不过分。)cannot是否定，与too much 和 over-V. 结构连用时强调肯定，表示\"怎么......也不为过\"。
3. playing video games not only takes much time but also does harm to health
解析：句子需填补部分的主语是\"打电动玩具\"，虽然\"打\"是动词，但根据全句结构我们需要将play处理成动名词形式充当主语。此外，考察\"不仅......还\"的句型。\"浪费时间\"除了答案表达之外也可以用waste time 。
4. near-sightedness is a serious problem 解析：There is no doubt that后接从句，从句里应有完整的主谓宾结构。如：There is no doubt that the thief jumped into the room from the balcony in the second floor.(毫无疑问，小偷是从二楼的阳台跳进来的。) \"近视\"还可以说成myopia 或 short sight 。 5. smile has done me a lot of good
解析：本题考察\"带给某人很多好处\"的表达。我们知道\"对某人有好处\"可以说成do good to sb. 或do sb. good，依此类推，\"给我带来很多好处\"就是：do a lot of good to me或do me a lot of good 。
大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习（22）
1. _________________ （如果机器真的能像人一样会思考的话），there would be no more reason to fear them than to fear men..
2. When it is short of water，a plant _______________（一般用蒸发作为降温的手段）. 3. He has never mixed with them or _____________（同他们坦城交流），but has demanded and generally received a respect due to his position and superior intelligence. 4.Your Math instructor would have been happy ________________（给你一次补考机会的）had you gone and explained that your parents were ill at the time.
5. ________________（随着孩子们在经济上独立出来）of the family，the emphasis on family financial security will shift from protection to saving for the retirement years. 1. If machines really thought as men do
解析：本题意为：如果机器真的能像人一样会思考的话，那么就没有理由害怕它们，如同没有理由害怕人类一样。考查的是虚拟语气的用法。如果所述与现在事实相反，那么虚拟条件句的从句谓语部分用过去时态，主句谓语部分用would/could/might/should＋动词原型。如果所述与过去事实相反，则从句谓语用过去完成时态，主句谓语用would/could/might/should＋动词现在完成时态。如果所述与将来事实相反，则从句谓语用 should/were to＋动词原型，主句谓语用would/could/should/might＋动词原型。本题属第一种。 2. normally uses evaporation as a means of cooling
解析：本题主要考查考生的词汇量。“蒸发”和“降温”可以分别用evaporation，cooling。cool本来是形容词“凉爽的，酷的，好的”，作为动词可以表示降温。本句可译为：在缺乏水分时，植物一般用蒸发作为降温的手段。
3. spoken to them on equal terms
解析：本题在理解上有一定难度，首先要看懂全句意思：他从来没有同它们亲密来往，或是同它们坦诚交流，但由于他的地位和高人一筹的聪明才智，他要求、也通常赢得了他们的尊敬。“同他们坦诚交流”的“坦诚”英语里没有一个对应词，只有用短语来表示。on equal terms是一个习惯用语，表示“平等相处”。另外，句子需填入部分还要注意前后时态一致。前半句用的是He has never…而…or…暗示前后是并列结构，所以“交流”也应用完成时态。 4. to give you a make-up examination
解析：要看出本题是一个虚拟语气句，had you gone and explained…是由于省略了标记词if而部分倒装。“补考”在英文里有固定搭配make-up examination。make up表示弥补、整理、和解、不足等。make-up暗含“补救”的意思。而这句话没有必要译成to give you a chance of make-up
examination，因为这样在语义上就犯了重复的错误。这句话完整的意思是：如果你去向他解释你父母那时生病了，你的数学老师会乐于给你一次补考机会的。 5. As the children become financially independent
解析：本题考查的是“随着……”状语从句，英语可以用as引导。另一个考点是汉语动词词性向英语形容词词性的转换。全句意为：随着孩子们在经济上从家庭中独立出来，家庭经济保障的重心将从保护转移到为退休后的生活储蓄。
大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习（23）
1._______________ （他们没有去游泳），they went to play football that day. 2.There is no doubt that _____________ （需求的增长导致了价格的上涨）. 3.He cannot win a good reputation，______________ （因为他多嘴多舌）.
4.We have reasons to believe that, ______________ （一个更加光明美好的未来等着我们）. 5.There are plenty of opportunities for everyone in oursociety，______________ （但是只有那些做好充分准备并且高度称职的人）can make use of them toachieve purpose. 1. Instead of going swimming 解析：原文中 “没有”并不一定要对应成didn’t，这里我们可以使用insteadof，使译文简洁明了，合乎英语习惯。采用正译法，用英语不带否定词的表达来代替中文的“没有去”。从本题及ExerciseTwo中的第二题我们可以得出结论：汉译英时，可以灵活变换句型，充分利用英语的否定或半否定语气的词语或结构，以便使译句符合英语习惯。从另一角度看，后半句英语没有出现表示转折含义的连接词（如but），因此They didn’t go swimming也是不成立的，不符合句法规范。 2. the increase in demand resulted in /caused the rise in prices 解析：考生要注意分清result from 和result in的区别。resultfrom指be caused by（由……产生），是指原因；result in指cause，leadto（导致……），是指结果。本题还有一个考点就是：做翻译时，应尽量照顾并行结构的前后一致，如：the increase in demandand the rise in prices。 3. because he has a loose tongue
解析：“多嘴多舌”显然有gossip的意思。因此我们在翻译时应先挖掘其深层含义，再用适当的英文表达出来。答案because he has a loose tongue看起来与原文并不对应，但却形象地讲内涵表达了出来。其他类似的翻译还有：abitter tongue（刻薄嘴）；a long tongue（快嘴）；a rough tongue（粗鲁话）；a sharptongue（言语尖刻）；a silver tongue（流利的口才）；a smooth tongue（油嘴滑舌）。 4. we would have a better and brighter future
解析：本题意为：我们有理由相信，一个更加光明美好的未来等着我们。句子需填入部分特别容易被译成：abetter and brighter future waits forus。这是因为受到了中文母语的干扰，思维被中文的语序牵着跑。如果这样译的话就会导致前后半句的主语发生转换，前面是we，后面是 thefuture。这种转换在英文里就会显得非常突兀，不符合英文表达习惯。因此我们可以在汉译英稍作变通，将前后主语统一为“we”。本题还有一点考生要留意的是，是否能分清wait和await的使用区别。两者都表示“等待”，wait是不及物动词，必须后接介词for；await是及物动词，可以后接人。 5. but only those who are prepared adequately and qualified highly
解析：本句考生特别容易译成：the prepared and thequalified。定冠词the加上形容词可以表示某一类人。the prepared and thequalified就指代“作了准备的人”和“有资格的人”，但遗漏了原文中的“充分”和“高度”。由于原句的修饰部分内容很多，因此不适宜用 “the＋形容词”的结构来指代某一类人。对于这种情况我们可以采用“某一类人＋后置定语”的方法。这样答案就是but only those who areprepared adequately and qualifiedhighly。全句的意思是：在我们的社会里，人人都有许多机遇，但是只有那些作好充分准备并且高度称职的人才能利用机遇达到目的

1.I replied to her that _______________ (我将会接受她的邀请).
2.She was angry with her husband ,so _____________ (她不理不睬)when he spoke to her.. 3.How could we get news in our own society or abroad ______________ (没有报纸的话)?
4.The latest census shows that China's population ______________ (已超过10亿) 5.We have had ten recorders ,but we still need ____________(需要这么多)as again. 1. I would accept her invitation
解析：本题考点一是时态的一致。由于前半句时态是replied，因此\"将要\"应译为would。本题考点二是\"接受\"的英文表达。 accept和 receive都有表示接受的意思。receive指客观已经发生的情况。它只表明事实上收到某物而不管接受者主观上是否愿意接受。如：My father received a letter this morning. 而accept带有主动或赞许的意味，表示不但收下某物，而且内心也同意接受。如：Please accept my little present.下面这句话可以帮助大家分清两个词的使用域：He received an invitation yesterday but he did not accept it.(他昨天收到一份邀请，但却没有接受。) 2. she ignored him
解析：由句意可知，她是对丈夫生气了，因而丈夫和她说话时她不予理睬。本题要注意ignore和neglect在含义上的差别。Ignore是故意不理睬别人，而neglect是表示疏忽(责任等)，并非故意，常和to连用，如：Don't neglect to lock the door. 3. without newspaper
解析：本句是一个与现在事实相反的虚拟语气句，虚拟语气句并不一定全部要用if条件句引导。很多情况下，一些介词或介词短语，副词短语的出现要求整个句子使用虚拟语气。without就是其中之一。如：I couldn't have passed this exam without your help.(没有你的帮助，我不可能通过这次考试。)这句话用if条件句来表达就是I couldn't have passed this exam if I hadn't had your help. 除了without外，英语里还有很多这样的词或短语是虚拟语气标志词。如：as if，as though，lest，for fear that，in case，even if，even though，in order that，so that，大家在复习虚拟语气语法点的时候要注意总结。
4. has exceeded one billion
解析：本句意为：据最新的人口普查，中国人口已超过10亿。本题一是要正确写出数字\"10亿\"，二是要正确选词\"超过\"，三是要注意完成时态。 5. as many
解析：本题考查倍数对等的正确说法，可以用\"... as +adj. +as...\"的结构。本句意为：我们已经有10台录音机了，但是我们还需要10台。

2. Travel can widen our knowledge, _____________ (扩大我们的眼界),and make one open-minded as well.
3. Cars are responsible for most of the smog in cities, _______________ (这已经对环境造成了严重的污染).
4.Modernization will be entirely possible in the first half of the 21st century, as long as we ________________(坚持认为)that economic development is the center of all our work.
5. He was convinced on the basis of ____________(当时已出现的情况)that there would be a long and difficult struggle.
1. With industries and business developing quickly
解析：本句意为：随着工商业的发展，许多大城市的树木数量正急剧减少。\"随着......\"要用介词with或along with。\"工商业\"既包括工业也包括商业，翻译时要注意译文的完整性。本句也可译成：With the quick development of industries and business. 2. broaden our horizon
解析：句中的短语widen our knowledge意思是\"扩大我们的眼界\"，make one open-minded是同义复指，它们表示相同的意思却在英语里使用不同的表达，以避免用词重复。这是英语行文的一个技巧，考生在翻译时应尽量避免 wordiness(用词累赘)，这个技巧在写六级作文时也值得借鉴。本句还可以译成：expand our vision或extend our sight. 3. which has seriously polluted the environment
解析：\"这已经对环境造成了严重的污染\"中的\"这\"显然是指前半句提到的the smog in cities，这里需要的是一个非限制性定语从句，补充说明城市烟雾对环境的影响。本句还可以译成：which has brought serious pollution to the environment。
4. hold an idea/ insist on the idea/ stick to the idea
解析：本句意为：只要我们坚持以经济建设为中心，那么在21世纪上半叶实现现代化是完全可能的。本题考查固定短语\"坚持认为\"的说法。除了答案提供的说法外还有以下说法大家可以参考：persist in the idea/ persevere in the idea/ adhere to the idea等。 5. what had appeared by then
解析：\"情况\"在这里没必要直译成situation或case，本句含义是指基于当时的情况使他确信，因而可以用what引导作basis后置定语。还有一点需要注意的是，\"当时已出现\"要求我们在翻译时准确选择时态。by then与过去完成时态想一致，也可以用at that time。
大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习（26）
1. A dog has won a German government award ________________ （因协助警方劝阻一名妇女自杀）.
2. The manager points out _______________ （我们的工作进展令人满意）. 3. _________________ （这栋房子需要现代化）：it has no bathroom or electricity. 4. ________________（飞机什么时候起飞）has not been announced. 5.His idea is ________________（应该立即执行计划）. 1. for helping police persuade a woman not to commit suicide
解析：本句考查的是句子逻辑关系。根据意思可知，句子前半句是果，后半句是因。“一只狗因为协助警方阻止了一名妇女的自杀而获德国政府奖项”。英语通常把表示目的、假设、原因、让步等内容放在句子的后部，因此这句话可以由because，for来引导。“自杀”有一个固定短语commit suicide，“劝阻”要用强调结果成功的persuade。 2. that our work is progressing satisfactorily
解析：本题考查词性的转译，即：将原汉语句子中的动词“令人满意”转移成英语的副词satisfactorily。这种词性转换是翻译常用技巧，适当的转换可使译文通顺，符合英文表达习惯。另外，句子需填入部分在全句中充当宾语从句，因而不能漏译that。 3. This house needs modernizing
解析：本题同样考查汉英词性转换技巧。全句意为：这栋房子既没有浴室也没有电，（因而）需要现代化。“现代化”在汉语里是一个名词，在这个句子中实际上指的是“房子”需要配置现代化设备，它的含义不等同于modernization，“配备现代化设施”可以用 modernizing来表示。英语里很多以-ing结尾的动词表示该动作的过程，通常与need连用，如：These clothes need washing. 本题是从名词到动词的转换。
4. When the plane is to take off
解析：本题考查的是以连接副词when引导的主语从句的翻译。中文意思是：飞机什么时候起飞还没有公布。这样的主语从句一般可以采用顺序法翻译。顺序法同样也适用于以that，what，whatever，who，whoever，where，how，why等引导的主语从句。如：认识他的人都信任他。（Who knows him will believe him.）本题的另一个考点是：“什么时候起飞”是一个将来时态，可以用be to来表达。
5. that the plan should be carried out immediately
解析：本题综合考查了表语从句、无主语翻译以及惯用搭配。首先，His idea is前半部分是一个完整的主谓结构，句子需填入部分在全句中充当表语；其次，“应该立即执行计划”中“计划”是被用来执行的，但是题干中并没有提到谁会来执行这个计划。因此，在主语没有出现的情况下，可以采用被动译法。“执行计划”在英语里可以用carry out the plan，perform the plan，implement the plan来表示。

解析：句中的短语widen our knowledge意思是“扩大我们的眼界”，make one open-minded是同义复指，它们表示相同的意思却在英语里使用不同的表达，以避免用词重复。这是英语行文的一个技巧，考生在翻译时应尽量避免 wordiness（用词累赘），这个技巧在写六级作文时也值得借鉴。本句还可以译成：expand our vision或extend our sight. 3. which has seriously polluted the environment

解析：“情况”在这里没必要直译成situation或case，本句含义是指基于当时的情况使他确信，因而可以用what引导作basis后置定语。还有一点需要注意的是，“当时已出现”要求我们在翻译时准确选择时态。by then与过去完成时态想一致，也可以用at that time。

85. someone must be talking about them behind their back. 86. it hard/difficult to resist the temptation of ice-cream.
整体而言，本次考试的翻译难度中等，与往年基本持平，主要侧重对词组的考察，对考生的语言基本功有较高的要求。大部分考点都是四六级的核心词汇和高频词组，所以只要考前充分复习，相信大部分考生都可以在考场上做到游刃有余。
82. With the oil prices ever rising, she tried to talk ______________（说服他不买车）.
解析：做四六级翻译题的实质是补全句子，所以已给英文题干和中文部分都要仔细分析。说服某人，考生第一反应是persuade sb. into doing sth.,但是题干已给动词talk，所以考察点是talk sb. into doing sth.，考生如果对这个词组不熟悉，可以大胆套用persuade这个词组的格式。 参考答案：him into stopping buying a car. 83. ________________（保持幽默感有助于）reduce stress and promote creative thinking in today’s competitive society.
解析：考点有两个，“幽默感”和“有助于”。某方面的“感”，如正义感，责任感，在英语(论坛)中都用“sense”来表达，即sense of justice, sense of responsibility。“有助于”可用两种表达方式，be helpful to do sth., 或者help to do sth. 另外注意动词短语做主语，要转化为动名词形式，即keep表达为keeping。
参考答案：Keeping a sense of humor helps to
84. When confronted with the evidence, _______________（他不得不坦白自己的罪行）. 解析：本题考察一个完整的主句，考点在于“坦白”和“罪行”两个单词的表达。 参考答案：he had to confess his crime.
85. When people say, “I can feel my ears burning”, it means they think___________________（一定有人在说他们的坏话）.
解析：本题考察“说某人坏话”，六级高频词组，有两种表达方式，speak evil of sb.或者talk sb. behind one’s back.后者在我的课堂上曾经以周星驰电影中的经典翻译摘举中给大家讲过，很多同学考后致电，感到很开心。另外，推断某人一定在做某事，考察情态动词“must be doing sth.”。 参考答案：someone must be talking about them behind their back.
86. She has decided to go on a diet, but finds ___________________（很难抵制冰淇淋的诱惑） . 解析：本题考察词组“发现某事很难（find it hard/difficult to do sth.）”,以及高频词“抵制（resist）”和“诱惑（temptation）”
参考答案：it hard/difficult to resist the temptation of ice-cream.

大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习（30）
1）把汉语主动句的宾语译成英语被动句的主语。
例1 ____________（将领你们去参观我们的新车间）by the secretary. 译文：You will be shown our new workshop. 简评：如果这句话不是划线填内容，你完全可以将它翻译成The secretary will show you our new workshop。正是因为题型是补全句子，这就给翻译带来了一定的难度，你必须去适应题型要求而不是让题型来适应你。让我们看看译文已给出部分：by the secretary显然是一个被动语态特征，“秘书”在译文里已经由原来的主语变成了译文句子的补足成分。所以，题目是暗示我们要把原句中“你们”转换成译句里的主语，这样才符合出题要求。
例2 You __________（我们期待你能组织贸易推广活动）this time. 译文：are expected to organize the trade publicity campaigns.
简评：根据题目可推知全句意思是：我们期望你能组织这次的贸易推广活动。中文句子主语、谓语、宾语分别是：我们、期望、你。但是在英文译文的给出部分中我们看到句子以you开头，也就是说“你被期望能组织这次贸易推广活动”。中文的宾语变成了英文的主语，这就要求我们在翻译时要使用被动语态。全句完整答案是：You are expected to organize the trade publicity campaigns this time.
2）当汉语句以“我们”、“人们”、“大家”等泛指性代词作主语时，在翻译成英文的时候常常可以忽略主语不译，并把英文译句处理成被动语态。处理后的英文译句往往带有know，see，find，say，suppose，estimate，report，suggest，stress，consider，expect，admit，point，understand等动词。
例3 如果原子失去一个或多个电子，我们就说这个原子带正电荷。
译文：If one or more electrons are removed，the atom is said/believed/thought to be positively charged. 简评：这句话是一个条件从句。即：在原子失去一个或多个电子的情况下，这个电子带正电荷。“我们就说这个原子带正电荷”可理解为“这个原子被认为/ 被确信/ 被说成是带正电荷”。那么根据前面所说的原则，我们在翻译时可以将泛指性主语“我们”省略不译，并使用被动语态。
从这个例子里我们还可以看出，在科技文章中，根据英语表达习惯我们应当多采用被动语态，以强调事物的客观性。
例4 人们采用各种措施来防止腐蚀。
译文：All kinds of measures are taken to prevent corrosion. 简评：这句话可以按原文译成主动态，即：People have taken all kinds of measures to prevent corrosion。也可以用被动语态来翻译——All kinds of measures are taken to prevent corrosion。两者比较而言，被动态译文更突出表明所有、种种措施已经付诸实施，all kinds of measures得到强调，而主动态译法
只是平铺直叙，重点不突出。

4. When the plane is to take off
解析：本题考查的是以连接副词when引导的主语从句的翻译。中文意思是：飞机什么时候起飞还没有公布。这样的主语从句一般可以采用顺序法翻译。顺序法同样也适用于以that，what，whatever，who，whoever，where，how，why等引导的主语从句。如：认识他的人都信任他。（Who knows him will believe him.）本题的另一个考点是：“什么时候起飞”是一个将来时态，可以用be to来表达。
5. that the plan should be carried out immediately
解析：本题综合考查了表语从句、无主语翻译以及惯用搭配。首先，His idea is前半部分是一个完整的主谓结构，句子需填入部分在全句中充当表语；其次，“应该立即执行计划”中“计划”是被用来执行的，但是题干中并没有提到谁会来执行这个计划。因此，在主语没有出现的情况下，可以采用被动译法。“执行计划”在英语里可以用carry out the plan，perform the plan，implement the plan来表示。

解析：句中的短语widen our knowledge意思是\"扩大我们的眼界\"，make one open-minded是同义复指，它们表示相同的意思却在英语里使用不同的表达，以避免用词重复。这是英语行文的一个技巧，考生在翻译时应尽量避免 wordiness（用词累赘），这个技巧在写六级作文时也值得借鉴。本句还可以译成：expand our vision或extend our sight. 3. which has seriously polluted the environment
解析：\"这已经对环境造成了严重的污染\"中的\"这\"显然是指前半句提到的the smog in cities，这里需要的是一个非限制性定语从句，补充说明城市烟雾对环境的影响。本句还可以译成：which has brought serious pollution to the environment。
4. hold an idea/ insist on the idea/ stick to the idea

解析：\"情况\"在这里没必要直译成situation或case，本句含义是指基于当时的情况使他确信，因而可以用what引导作basis后置定语。还有一点需要注意的是，\"当时已出现\"要求我们在翻译时准确选择时态。by then与过去完成时态想一致，也可以用at that time。

大学英语四级考试翻译题精选练习（39）
1. This is yet _________________ (两国人民的又一个共同点).
2. His scientific works _______________(在英语国家得到广泛阅读).
3. Revolution means the emancipation of the productive forces，_____________(改革也是解放生产力). 4.He is optimistic ________________(对现时信息产业的发展状况).
5.Work in all fields should be subordinated to and ________________(服务于经济发展的进程). 1. another common point between the people of our two countries
解析：本题考查通过增补介词使译文的意思更完整。虽然原文没有和between相对应的词，但是\"共同点\"是两国人民之间在某方面进行比较的结果，所以增补 between之后，符合英语表达习惯。增词法也是汉译英中常用技巧之一，再如：她以教书为业。(She is a teacher by occupation.)我已重新考虑了那件事。(I've had second thought on that matter.)
2. were widely read in English-speaking countries
解析：若是按照字面翻译，这句话很可能被译为were widely read in English countries。但是原文中\"英语国家\"的含义是\"讲英语的国家\"。这体现了英汉表达差异。请考生看下面这句话的英译：我卖掉了彩电。/I sold out my color TV. 这句译文错误在于，没弄清\"彩电\"的含义。\"彩电\"有两层意思：一是指具体的实物，即彩色电视机color TV set;二是指屏幕上出现的影像，即彩色电视color TV。而句子中卖掉的只能是机器，具体的实物。
3. and so does reform
解析：本题意为：革命是解放生产力，改革也是解放生产力。考点有二：第一，考查词性转移。原文中\"解放\"用作动词，\"生产力\"作宾语。译文中处理成名词短语 \"对生产力的解放\"。第二，考查省译法。我们不能把原文译成and reform also means the emancipation of the productive forces，这种结构显得臃肿累赘。为避免重复，可以选用and so does...来代替这个动宾结构。 4. about the present development of information industry 解析：\"对......表示乐观\"可以用句型be optimistic about sth.。这句话不能译成about the status of the present development of information industry。\"状况\"是一个范畴词，没有实际含义，可省略不译。 5. serve the economic development
解析：\"服务于......\"即\"为......服务\"，所以要用serve sb./ sth.的结构，不能译成be served to。\"进程\"也是一个范畴词，可以省略不译。另外，be subordinated to是一个固定结构，含义是\"从属于......，隶属于......\"。
