與悲情。吾生雖晚,世態(tài)炎涼卻已看透矣。是夜,窗外風雨如晦,吾獨坐陋室,聽一曲《塵緣》,合成詩韻一首,覺放諸古今,亦獨有風韻也。畢而臥。乙酉年七月初七。 2010年大學英語四級考試翻譯提高練習二翻譯——核心語法 從句的用法在前文已有詳細講解,這里就不再贅述。 (1)主語從句 真題:__________(很多人沒有意識到的)is providing the best education possible for their children.() 答案:What many people don’t realize (2)賓語從句 真題:Many Americans live on credit, and their quality of life__________(是用他們能夠借到多少來衡量的), not how much they can earn.() 答案:is measured by how much they can loan (3)表語從句 真題:In my sixties, one change I notice is that__________(我比以前更容易累了).() 答案:I am more likely to get tired than before (4)定語從句 真題:Medical researchers are painfully aware that there are many problems__________(他們至今還沒有答案)() 答案:(that/which)they haven’t found solution to或to which they haven’t found solution 真題:__________(與我成長的地方相比), this town is more prosperous and exciting.() 答案:Compared with the place where I grew up 真題:The prevention and treatment of AIDS is __________(我們可以合[ 此文轉貼于貴, ] 作的領域).() 答案:the field where(in which)we can cooperate (5)狀語從句 真題:Leaving one’s job, __________(不管是什么工作), is a difficult change, even for those who look forward to retiring.() 答案:whatever it is(讓步狀語從句) 真題:I am going to pursue this course, __________(無論我要作出什么樣的犧牲).() 答案:no matter what kind of sacrifice I have to make(讓步狀語從句) 真題:Some psychologists claim that people __________(出門在外時可能會感到孤獨)() 答案:may feel lonely when they are away from home(時間狀語從句) 【真題】__________(大多數(shù)父母所關心的)is providing the best education possible for their children.() 【解析】本題考查對主語從句的掌握。What在主語從句中作介詞的賓語?! 敬鸢浮縒hat most parents are concerned about 注:從句的用法參見完形填空部分對從句的講解?! ?2)if或but for等引導的條件句?! 菊骖}】You would not have failed if__________(按照我的指令去做).() 【答案】you had followed my instructions 或者you had followed my orders 【解析】本題較為容易,按照漢語意思直譯。根據(jù)語法規(guī)定,如果主句中出現(xiàn)would +have的形式,從句中應該采用had+過去分詞的結構。注意很多學生出現(xiàn)遺漏主語you,造成不必要的失分。在與過去事實相反的條件下,if引導的條件句時態(tài)是過去完成時態(tài),主句謂語一般使用would have done。 倒裝分完全倒裝與部分倒裝兩種類型,重點是部分倒裝,即只有系動詞、助動詞和情態(tài)動詞參與的倒裝。指否定副詞或否定的副詞性結構hardly, seldom, scarcely, never, little, nowhere, not once, under no circumstances, in no way, no sooner…than,not only…but also用于句首時所導致的倒裝?! ?2)虛擬倒裝?! ere I you, I’ll never promise to do that. 如果我是你,絕對不會答應那么做的。為突出強調某一成分而將它提至句首時,實行倒裝,如: 倒裝句 So diligently does he work that he often forgets to eat and sleep. 他工作如此勤奮以至于經(jīng)常廢寢忘食?! nly by working hard can we achieve what we want. 我們只有通過努力工作才能獲得想要的東西?! o moved was she that she could not say a word. 她感動得說不出話來。解答此題需要考慮兩個層次,首先是動詞“收費”的對應詞,應當譯為“charge”。其次,not only…but…結構中出現(xiàn)了否定詞前置到句首的現(xiàn)象,這是倒裝的標志。 【答案】did he overcharge me/did he charge me too much第三部分 翻譯——真題評析與提高 1. Soon after he transferred to the new school, Ali found that he had___________(很難跟上班上同學)in maths and English. () 解題步驟 (一)理解:分析此句,所翻譯的部分主要考查對習慣用法的掌握,而并不涉及句子時態(tài)問題?! ?1) 切塊對應翻譯:“很難做某事”= have difficulty (in) doing sth.,“跟上”=keep up with,“班上同學”= his classmates。核對所翻譯的句子是否符合英語習慣等。keep up with“跟上” 2. The study shows that the poor functioning of human body is___________(與缺乏鍛煉密切相關). () 解題步驟 (一)理解:分析此句, 本句時態(tài)已經(jīng)確定,所翻譯部分在be動詞is之后,所以充當表語成份?! ?二)表達:劃分成分本句的核心謂語動詞是show,其后引導一個賓語從句,“the poor functioning of human body”作賓語從句的主語,“與缺乏鍛煉密切相關”作表語?! ?2) 重新組合:closely linked/ related to the lack of exercise (三)校審:檢查“與……密切相關”、“缺乏鍛煉”用be closely linked/related to…,the lack of exercise來表達是否準確。 正確答案closely linked to the lack of exercise/ closely related to the lack of exercise. 考點剖析習慣用法: be closely linked/related to…“與……密切相關”?! ?二)表達:劃分成分,You’d better take a sweater with you是本句的主句部分, 從
