2009年6月CET6翻譯評析
孫煥奐
整體而言,本次考試的翻譯難度中等,與往年基本持平,主要側重對詞組的考察,對考生的語言基本功有較高的要求。大部分考點都是四六級的核心詞匯和高頻詞組,所以只要考前充分復習,相信大部分考生都可以在考場上做到游刃有余。
82. With the oil prices ever rising, she tried to talk ______________(說服他不買車).
解析:做四六級翻譯題的實質是補全句子,所以已給英文題干和中文部分都要仔細分析。說服某人,考生第一反應是persuade sb. into doing sth.,但是題干已給動詞talk,所以考察點是talk sb. into doing sth.,考生如果對這個詞組不熟悉,可以大膽套用persuade這個詞組的格式。
參考答案: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:考點有兩個,“幽默感”和“有助于”。某方面的“感”,如正義感,責任感,在英語(論壇)中都用“sense”來表達,即sense of justice, sense of responsibility?!坝兄凇笨捎脙煞N表達方式,be helpful to do sth., 或者help to do sth. 另外注意動詞短語做主語,要轉化為動名詞形式,即keep表達為keeping。
參考答案: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:本題考察一個完整的主句,考點在于“坦白”和“罪行”兩個單詞的表達。
參考答案:he had to confess his crime.
85. When people say, “I can feel my ears burning”, it means they think___________________(一定有人在說他們的壞話).
解析:本題考察“說某人壞話”,六級高頻詞組,有兩種表達方式,speak evil of sb.或者talk sb. behind one’s back.后者在我的課堂上曾經以周星馳電影中的經典翻譯摘舉中給大家講過,很多同學考后致電,感到很開心。另外,推斷某人一定在做某事,考察情態動詞“must be doing sth.”。
參考答案:someone must be talking about them behind their back.
86. She has decided to go on a diet, but finds ___________________(很難抵制冰淇淋的誘惑) .
解析:本題考察詞組“發現某事很難(find it hard/difficult to do sth.)”,以及高頻詞“抵制(resist)”和“誘惑(temptation)”
參考答案:it hard/difficult to resist the temptation of ice-cream.
