考研英語(yǔ)長(zhǎng)難句

1、定語(yǔ)從句的譯法1 .譯成前置定語(yǔ)一般說(shuō)來(lái)，限定性的定語(yǔ)從句可提前譯成定語(yǔ)。還有一些定語(yǔ)從句，雖然并不明顯地帶有限定性質(zhì)，但本身較短，和被修飾語(yǔ)關(guān)系緊密，也可譯為前置定語(yǔ)。如：例 1. To be sure, a great rebuilding project would give jobs to many of those people who need them.一誠(chéng)然，一個(gè)宏偉的重建計(jì)劃也許能為許多需要工作的人提供就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)。例 2.

2、ingclimb of the steep paths have a chance of gaining its luminous summits.一在科學(xué)上沒(méi)有平坦大道，只有不畏勞苦，沿著陡峭的山路攀登的人，才有希望到達(dá)光輝的頂點(diǎn)。例 3. In recent years, however, people have begun to become aware that cities are also areas where there is a concentration of problems.可是，近幾年來(lái)人們開(kāi)始意識(shí)到城市也是問(wèn)題成堆的地方。例 4. The moon is a wor

3、ld that is completely still and where utter silence prevails.月亮是一個(gè)聲斷音絕的世界,是一個(gè)萬(wàn)籟俱寂的世界。例 5. Furthermore, humans have the ability to modify the environment in which they live, thus subjecting all other life forms to their own peculiar ideas and fancies.而且，人類(lèi)還有能力改變自己的生存環(huán)境，從而是所有其他形態(tài)的生命服從人類(lèi)自己獨(dú)特的想法和想象。例 6.

4、 But even more important, it was the farthest that scientists had been able to lookinto the past, for what they were seeing were the patterns and structures that existed 15 billion years ago.但更為重要的是，這是科學(xué)家們所能觀察到的最遙遠(yuǎn)的過(guò)去的景象，因?yàn)樗麄兛吹降氖?50億年前宇宙云的形狀和結(jié)構(gòu)。如以上例句所示，這種譯法最適于翻譯較短的限定性定語(yǔ)從句。有時(shí)較長(zhǎng)的限定性定語(yǔ)從句也可采用這種譯法，以使修飾關(guān)系

5、清晰，句子結(jié)構(gòu)緊湊。如：例 7.This practice book is intended for foreign engineers or students to engineering who have already mastered the elements of English, and who now want to use their knowledge of the language to read books on their subjects.這本練習(xí)是給那些已經(jīng)掌握了英語(yǔ)基礎(chǔ)知識(shí)而現(xiàn)在要利用學(xué)到的語(yǔ)言知識(shí)來(lái)閱讀專(zhuān)業(yè)書(shū)籍的外 國(guó)工程師或?qū)W習(xí)工程學(xué)的學(xué)生用的。例 8.

6、 write a genuine familiar or truly English style is to write as any one who would speak in commonconversation, who had a thorough commandand choice of words, or who could discourse with ease, force and perspicuity.用真正的普通文體即純正的英語(yǔ)文體寫(xiě)作就像那些諳熟詞匯而又善于選擇詞匯，能高談闊論且言詞流暢，說(shuō)話有力而明確的人的日常交談一般。例 8 中的 who had a thorou

7、gh command and choice of words, or who could discourse withease, force and perspicuity本應(yīng)緊接先行詞 any one ,但由于太長(zhǎng)而后移，而 who would speakin common conversation則修飾上述兩個(gè)定語(yǔ)從句及其先行詞。有些起附加說(shuō)明作用的非限定性定語(yǔ)從句，對(duì)先行詞也有程度不同的修飾、限制意義，有時(shí)也可譯成前置定語(yǔ)。如：例 9. He liked his sister, who was warm and pleasant, but he did not like his brot

8、her, who was aloof and arrogant.他喜歡熱情活潑的妹妹,而不喜歡冷漠高傲的哥哥。2 .譯成后置的并列分句A. 一些結(jié)構(gòu)較復(fù)雜，或者意思上有較強(qiáng)的獨(dú)立性的限定性定語(yǔ)從句，通?？勺g為后置的并列分句。采取這種譯法往往要重復(fù)關(guān)系代詞所代替的詞，有時(shí)可在這些詞之前加指示詞“這"、“這些”等，以使譯文明確。如： 例 1. But world attention also is focusing on another step, which will make the smoker increasingly self-conscious and uncomfortab

9、le about his habit.同時(shí)，人們也正把注意力集中在另一項(xiàng)措施上，這項(xiàng)措施將使吸煙者越來(lái)越意識(shí)到自己的不良 習(xí)慣并為之感到不安。例 2.

10、ons which, as it were, has been taken as a difficult task.本書(shū)旨在為寫(xiě)作提供范例，可以說(shuō)寫(xiě)作是一個(gè)難題。例 4.

Matter is composed of molecules that are compos

11、ed of atoms.物質(zhì)是由分子組成的，而分子又是由原子組成的。在仞4中，從句在語(yǔ)意上與主句相矛盾；在例 5中，從句在語(yǔ)意上與主句相承。在譯文中除重 復(fù)關(guān)聯(lián)代詞所代替的詞外，加上了連詞“但是”、“而”，是譯文語(yǔ)氣連貫。有些定語(yǔ)從句漢譯時(shí)可不必重復(fù)關(guān)系代詞所代替的詞，而將其譯成人稱代詞“他”、“他們”等，使句子簡(jiǎn)明扼要。如： 例 1. Honeycutt was 40, an affable man who had to leave his family in Raleigh, North Carolina, when he d gone north to work.亨尼卡行年40,和藹可親

In Engli

13、sh, attributive clauses are used extensively, some of which are very long and complicated in structure.在英語(yǔ)中，定語(yǔ)從句的運(yùn)用極為廣泛，有的從句很長(zhǎng)而且結(jié)構(gòu)復(fù)雜。例 2.

33、息一一補(bǔ)進(jìn)；而漢語(yǔ)習(xí)慣于從側(cè)面說(shuō) 明，先闡述外圍的環(huán)境，最后點(diǎn)出信息中心。從形式上看，英語(yǔ)是前重心，頭短尾長(zhǎng)；漢語(yǔ)則是后 重心，頭大尾小。(3)以it作形式主語(yǔ)的謂語(yǔ)是被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)的句子，一般宜轉(zhuǎn)譯為主動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)，可譯為“據(jù) ”或補(bǔ) 上泛指主語(yǔ)“有人”、“大家”、“人們”等，主語(yǔ)從句保留原文的語(yǔ)序。如：例 1.

36、修辭作用在于強(qiáng)調(diào)賓語(yǔ)。為了使譯文達(dá)到相同的修辭效果， 翻譯時(shí)也宜將賓語(yǔ)從句前置。例 1. Whether they like it or not, I don't care.他們喜歡不喜歡，我可不管。例 2. What they were asked to do in 10 days, they finished in two.讓他們十天做的事，他們兩天就做完了。例 3. What he has once heard he never forgets.他聽(tīng)過(guò)的話，再也不會(huì)忘記。上述譯文同樣將賓語(yǔ)從句前置，收到了強(qiáng)調(diào)賓語(yǔ)的效果。但有時(shí)也可依漢語(yǔ)的表達(dá)習(xí)慣將賓語(yǔ) 從句后置。例 4. Wha

37、t the country thinks and worries about we should think and worry about.我們應(yīng)想國(guó)家之所想，急國(guó)家之所急。C.用it作形式賓語(yǔ)的句子，漢譯時(shí) that引起的賓語(yǔ)從句一般可按原文語(yǔ)序，it不必譯出。例 1. We think it certain that American English does have a considerable influence uponBritish English.我們認(rèn)為美語(yǔ)必然對(duì)英語(yǔ)產(chǎn)生相當(dāng)大的影響。例 2. I make it clear that I was determined to

40、result of invention of steam engine was that humanpower was replaced by mechanical power.發(fā)明蒸汽機(jī)的結(jié)果是機(jī)械力代替了人力。4 .同位語(yǔ)從句英語(yǔ)中的同位語(yǔ)從句與其所修飾的名詞處于同等的地位，只作進(jìn)一步解釋的作用，漢譯時(shí)一般 用下述方法處理。A.同位語(yǔ)從句不提前，如：例 1.
