2、，一共15分，现在每句2分，一共10分。5第一部分 考研英语翻译概况 分值：共10分，每题2分 评分标准： 如果句子译文明显扭曲原文意义，该句得分最多不超过0.5分。 如果提供两个或两个以上的译法，若均正确，给分；如果其中一个译法有错，按错误译法给分 中文错别字不可别扣分，按整篇累计扣分。在不影响意思的前提下，满三个错别字扣0.5分，无0.25扣分。6 考研翻译是四种题型中综合性最强的一种，不但要求考生具备基本的词汇量，有长难句分析能力和一定的语法基础；更要求考生的综合语言组织能力，使翻译出来的文章具有一定的可读性。也就是说，考研翻译不仅考的是英语技能，还包括一定的中文水平。加上本身又是主观题

3、，拿分的难度自然很高。然而，考研翻译本身有着很强的规律性，不论是单词、语法还是语言的组织，都是在特定的范围内考察，并且可以通过一定的技巧解决。即使在考前最后一个月，仍然可以最大限度地达到突击效果。7 概况 英译汉短文内容大体上涉及当前人们普遍关注的社会生活、政治、经济、历史一般常识或社会、自然科学与技术常识的题材。 题材多为议论文。科学常识的题 1991 能源与农业444词 1992 能力评估的科学性406 1993 科学研究的方法443 1994天才技术与科学发展的关系308 1995标准化教育与心理评估364 1995科学发展的动力3318 1997动物的权力 1998宇宙的起源 1999

5、、长难句分析等宏观考点的难度、复杂性下降的情况下，微观考点，特别是单词的考察难度在上升。因此，考生在准备考研翻译时，要特别留心考研翻译的单词记忆，在复习单词的过程中注意以下几点。13 1、 将近10年(2001-2012年)考研翻译题中出现过的单词反复记忆、复习。 考研翻译的单词是有相当高的重复出现率的。在当年的新题中，多数单词都是历年真题中已经出现过的单词或者其派生形式。比如03年第64题中考到的morals这一名词，在06年的考题中再次出现，并且在考察的五道题中有四道题里都出现(46、48、49、50)，14 2、 要重点复习考研阅读和翻译中出现的熟词僻意。 考研翻译的单词，表面上看，相当

6、于阅读来说，明显简单一些。然而，这些常见的、看到直接能反应出它们意思的单词，考察的却不是它的本意。考研翻译中存在许多熟词僻意，这些词义必须准确无误地翻译出来，否则一个单词就要扣掉0.5分。而每道题2分，一个意群也只不过是0.5分，这样因为一个单词毁掉一个意群，非常不值。15 比如while这个最简单的连接词，从06年开始，一直到09年，连续四年的考研翻译中，都出现了这个词。多数考生在看到这个词的时候，误将其翻译为“在时候”或者“与此同时”，也就是时间状语从句的连接词。然而这几年连续考察的却是while做让步状语从句连接词的用法，也就是翻译成“尽管”或者“虽然”。 所以，考生在考前，应当把熟词僻

7、义复习一下。熟词僻义本身量是有限的，一般各种单词书上都有专门的总结，最多也就七八十个。这些词不但翻译中能起到立竿见影的效果，在阅读中也属于经常考察的词汇。16 在词的处理上，有三种情况： 第一种，词认识，有多义，要选择 根据语境选择 第二种，词认识，意思不对 根据已知意义推测 第三种，词不认识。 填词造句（根据中文搭配）17accountuThere were several different accounts of the story in the newspaper.uShe has a balance of five thousand dollars in her bank accou

8、nt. 18explosion(2000)uTerrorists were responsible for the bomb explosion.uThe population explosion in India caused famine and poverty. 19 二、句法 考研翻译题型，从本质上说，首先是阅读，其次是翻译。阅读是一个被动技能，只要理解文章即可；翻译是一个主动技能，既要理解，又要表达。所以，做考研翻译时，既要进行长难句分析，又要按照中文的正常表达顺序，以合理的语言表达出来。 对于考研翻译长难句的复习，考生应当注意以下几点：20 第一，将近10年的翻译真题反复分析。考研

9、翻译考察的侧重点，经历过两次变化。02年以前，3分一道题，这时的翻译是从句和短语并重；02-05间，两分一道题，以从句为重点；06年及以后，仍然是两分一道，但是短语考察明显增多。所以，表面上看从句难度很高，06年以后考的并不是特别复杂，而短语的难度介词短语、插入语、双of短语在增多。而这几年题的综合难度，以06年最高。21 第二，注意做翻译一定要坚持两点，即打草稿和“写”。在头脑中形成的翻译不是翻译，落到纸上，仍然不一定是通顺的句子，所以，每次在做翻译时，一定要坚持把语言写出来，这样才能提高语言组织能力。22真题分析 考研翻译的“长难句”，从特点来看，可以分成两大类。 第一大类是从句分析型。

10、这是历年考研翻译中必考的题型，也是一大主流题。难度上，这种题型在05年以前考察的比较高，因为一个句子当中出现的从句种类比较多，且从句的嵌套、叠加，频频出现。06年开始，从句的嵌套基本上不再出现，而单独的从句仍然在考察。所以，从句分析型题型的难度，近年有明显的下降趋势。 分析从句比较多的长难句，要找到句子的切分点，切分点主要有两种，一个是直接看到的，即连接词that、which、who、when等等；另外一个是潜在的，即各种动词形式，包括doing、to do(单独使用的)、done等等。23 概括起来就是一点，以动词作为意群的切分点，把每个句子划分成若干个包括一个主要动词的意群，然后分别翻译每

11、个意群，再把这几个意群在最后用中文合适的结构连接在一起。24分析2001年的第73题 Pearson has pieced together the work of hundreds of researchers around the world to produce a unique millennium technology calendar that gives the latest dates when we can expect hundreds of key breakthroughs and discoveries to take place. 25 Pearson has pi

13、he world to produce a unique millennium technology calendar that gives the latest dates when we can expect hundreds of key breakthroughs and discoveries to take place. 第一个是皮尔森将世界上数百名研究者的工作汇集到一起。 第二个是“为了/以便制作一个独特的千年技术日历” 第三个是“显示最新/最近日期. 第四个是“我们可以期待上百种关键性突破和发现产生。”27 Pearson has pieced together the wor

14、k of hundreds of researchers around the world to produce a unique millennium technology calendar that gives the latest dates when we can expect hundreds of key breakthroughs and discoveries to take place. 皮尔森将世界上数百名研究者的工作汇集到一起，以便制作一个独特的显示最新日期的千年技术日历，在这些日期里，我们可以期待上百种关键性突破和发现产生 28第二大类是介词堆砌型 所谓的介词堆砌型，就

15、是一个长难句，仔细去看，基本上没有从句或者说只有一个从句的连接词，但是整个句子中介词短语的出现率极高，一个句子中有连续或者间断的五到六个介词短语。这样，分析结构是一难，组织语言又是一难。 29 这种题型在06年以前考察较少，而06年以后则开始露头，基本上每年至少一道。特别是2006年的考研翻译中，第46和第47题都是典型的介词堆砌型。介词堆砌型，绝对不是仅仅的将一堆介词短语放到一个长难句中，让我们一个一个去分析、整合。在06年到10年的考研翻译中，这种题的考察难点主要表现在以下两方面：介词叠加和介词错位。30 介词叠加，就是在长难句中，会发现两个介词连续出现，第一个介词后面没有直接出现应跟的名

16、词，而是出现了第二个介词。这时，考生本能的第一反应是，试卷是不是印刷有错误。 312006年的第47题 His function is analogous to that of a judge, who must accept the obligation of revealing in as obvious a manner as possible the course of reasoning which led him to his decision. 32 介词错位，就是应该跟前面动词搭配的介词短语被放到了后面，而后面的成分提到了前面，换而言之，就是后面的介词短语和前面的介词短语换了个

17、位置 332006年的第46题 I shall define him as an individual who has elected as his primary duty and pleasure in life the activity of thinking in Socratic(苏格拉底) way about moral problems. 34 对于这种新出现的题型，考生会发现，虽然已经掌握了长难句的分析法拆分与组合，但是仍然无法解决这里的微观问题。因此在拆分组合的前提下，要使用新的方法，即介词定位法。 所谓介词定位法，是找出句子当中的一系列介词短语，用括号分别圈起来，然后翻译括

18、号以外的部分，即大致的主干，接着将括号中的短语一个一个分别添加到中文的合适位置中去。而介词短语的定位很简单，就是定在它后面出现的名词上。 35分析2006年的第46题 I shall define him as an individual who has elected as his primary duty and pleasure in life the activity of thinking in Socratic(苏格拉底) way about moral problems.36 I shall define him as an individual who has elected

19、as his primary duty and pleasure in life the activity of thinking in Socratic(苏格拉底) way about moral problems. 37 I shall define him as an individual | who has elected (as his primary duty and pleasure)(in life)the activity (of thinking)(in Socratic(苏格拉底) way)(about moral problems). 38 I shall define

20、 him as an individual | who has elected (as his primary duty and pleasure)(in life)the activity (of thinking)(in Socratic(苏格拉底) way)(about moral problems). 他将活动视为 他将活动视为他的主要职责和乐趣 他将活动视为他生活中的主要职责和乐趣 他将思考活动视为他的主要职责和乐趣 他将以苏格拉底的方式思考的活动视为他的主要职责和乐趣 他将以苏格拉底的方式思考道德问题的活动视为他的主要职责和乐趣 39 I shall define him as a

21、n individual | who has elected (as his primary duty and pleasure)(in life)the activity (of thinking)(in Socratic(苏格拉底) way)(about moral problems. 我应当将他定义为一种人，这种人将以苏格拉底的方式思考道德问题的活动视为他的主要职责和乐趣 402006年的第47题 His function is analogous to that of a judge, who must accept the obligation of revealing in as

22、obvious a manner as possible the course of reasoning which led him to his decision.41 His function is analogous to that of a judge, | who must accept the obligation of revealing in as obvious a manner as possible the course of reasoning| which led him to his decision.42 His function is analogous to

23、that of a judge, | who must accept the obligation (of revealing) (in a manner)(as obvious as possible) the course (of reasoning)| which led him to his decision. 他必须接受职责 他必须接受揭示的职责 他必须接受揭示过程的职责 他必须接受以一种方式揭示过程的职责 他必须接受以一种尽可能明显的方式揭示过程的职责 他必须接受以一种尽可能明显的方式揭示推理过程的职责” 43 His function is analogous to that o

24、f a judge, | who must accept the obligation (of revealing) (in a manner)(as obvious as possible) the course (of reasoning)| which led him to his decision. 他(知识分子)的作用类似于法官的作用，法官必须接受以一种尽可能明显的方式揭示推理过程的职责，这个推理过程使他做出决定 44 这两种题型的出现也不是绝对的，有时会糅合在一起。概括起来，我们可以把划竖线和画括号的方法结合使用。划竖线，用于断开句子中的主要的几个大的意群，即宏观分析；画括号，用于

25、断开意群中的每个修饰成分，其中介词短语是主流，即微观分析。两者并用. 45第二部分 考研英译汉英汉对比一、英语重结构，汉语重语意Children will play with dolls equipped with personality chips, computers with in-built personalities will be regarded as workmates rather than tools, relaxation will be in front of smell television, and the digital age will have arrived

29、究方法产生了兴趣，这与其说是因为外部对历史作为一门知识学科的有效性提出了挑战，还不如说是因为历史学家内部发生了争吵。50 In the doorway lay at least twelve umbrellas of all sizes and colors. 门口放着至少12把五颜六色大小不一的雨伞。 门口放着一堆伞，少说有12把，五颜六色，大小不一。51三、英语多从句，汉语多分句On the whole such a conclusion can be drawn with a certain degree of confidence, but only if the child can
