版社在排版時遵循一條原則,即1至10用單詞表示,10以上的數(shù)目用阿拉伯數(shù)字(也有的以100為界限),這條原則值得我們借鑒。 Eg. That table measures ten feet by five. 那個工作臺長10英尺,寬5英尺。 Eg. The traditional pattern of classroom experience at the college level brings the professor and a group of 20 to 30 students together for a 45to50minute class session two or three times a week. 大學課堂的傳統(tǒng)的教學方式是,一個教授和二三十名學生每周見面兩三次,每次授課時間45到50分鐘。 二. 人數(shù)用阿拉伯數(shù)字表示顯得更簡潔明了,但不定數(shù)量、近似值用單詞表示較恰當。 Eg. There are 203817 voters on the electoral rolls. 選舉名單上有203817個投票人。 Eg. Nearly thirty thousand voters took part in this election. 近3萬個投票人參加了這次選舉。 三. 遇到日期、百分比、帶單位的特殊數(shù)字,通常用阿拉伯數(shù)字。 Eg. Maximum swivel of table is l20. 工作臺的最大旋轉(zhuǎn)角度是120度。 Eg. 3rd March l991或3 March l991; a discount of 5 percent(5%的折扣); Eg. purchased 7 yards of carpet(買7碼地毯); Eg. ordered 2 pounds of minced steak(訂購2磅肉餡) 如果涉及的數(shù)目和單位是不定數(shù),可用單詞表示。 Eg. about five miles per hour(每小時大約5英里) Eg. at least ten yards away(至少有10碼遠) Eg. hesitated for a moment or two(猶豫了片刻) Eg. I have warned you a hundred times(我已經(jīng)警告你多少遍了。) 口譯中需要強記的詞組give the floor to 請…發(fā)言It is a great pleasure for me to 我很榮幸…relevant issues 相關問題 latest research results 最新的調(diào)查結(jié)果attach importance to 對…給予重視leading technologies 領先技術Minister Counselor 公使natural heritage 自然遺產(chǎn)shared concern 共同關心的問題welldeserved reputation 良好的信譽express sincere gratitude to 對…表示衷心的感謝Let39。s wele sb. to give a speech 請…講話bilateral conference 雙邊會議propose the warmest applause to 以掌聲對…表示的最熱烈的歡迎sponsor 主辦單位the Award Ceremony 頒獎儀式greeting speech 賀詞Let39。s invite sb. to present the award 請…頒獎achieve plete success 取得圓滿成功global celebration ceremony 全球慶典declare the closing of 宣布…結(jié)束Please rise for the national anthem. 請全體起立,奏國歌petitive job market 競爭激烈的就業(yè)市場financial institutions 金融機構(gòu)forwardlooking 進取 meet the challenges 迎接挑戰(zhàn) urban residents 城市居民place as the priority 把…列為重要內(nèi)容never neglect the work 不放松工作water conservation 節(jié)約用水extend our sincere congratulations on 對…表示衷心祝賀model city of water conservation 節(jié)約用水先進城市attain the results expected 使…取得預期效果confer honorable awards on 授予…光榮稱號strive for 為…而奮斗a city of severe water shortage 嚴重缺水城市units concerned 有關單位pared with sth., there is still some way to go 與…比有差距wish a plete success 預?!瓐A滿成功broaden sources of ine and reduce expenditure 開源與節(jié)流并重 merrily gather 歡聚一堂vigorous economic region 活躍的經(jīng)濟帶solid foundation 基礎雄厚May you have a most pleasant impression. 留下最美好的印象wish a pleasant stay 祝愿在停留愉快Spring is very much in the air. 春意盎然forest coverage 森林覆蓋率global warming 全球變暖
