2017年6月大学英语四级翻译练习题
印章篆刻
请将下面这段话翻译成英文:
中国的印章篆刻(seal carving)始于古代,贯穿于整个秦朝。篆刻的印帝最初是作为皇帝的玉玺(imperial seal)来使用的。皇家的印章被称为玺(Xi)并且只能由皇室成员使用。秦朝之后,更多不同种类的印章出现了。它们作为个性化的印戳用于私人用途。这些非官方定制的印戳被称为印(Yin)。在唐朝,由于迷信(superstition),印章的名称被改称为宝,理由是玺的发音与另一个表示“死亡”意思的汉字类似。
参考翻译:
Chinese seal carving first appeared in ancient times and was used throughout the Qin Dynasty. It was initially employed as an imperial seal named Xi. These imperial seal carvings were used only by the royalty. Following this dynasty, more different kinds of seals appeared and were used by private folks as personalized stamps. These non-official stamps were called Yin. During the Tang Dynasty, the seals was renamed Bao as a result of superstition since the pronunciation of Xi is similar to that of another Chinese charactcr which means death.
1.篆刻的印幸最初是作为皇帝的玉玺(imperial seal)来使用的:该句可译为被动句,谓语是"最初是作为…使用”,其中“使用”可用employ来表示,属于正式用语,故可翻译为was initially employed as。
2.由于迷信,印章的名称被改称为宝:“由于”可译为becauseof或as a rcsult of, 这两个短语后面都接名句或动名词。
黄梅戏
请将下面这段话翻译成英文:

1.黄梅戏源于湖北省黄梅共的采茶歌曲,连同京剧、越剧、评剧和豫剧是中国的五大戏曲:后半句可以理解为“黄梅戏是中国五大戏曲之一”,即 Huangmei Opera is one of theFive Operas in China。再翻译句子的剩余部分连同京剧、越剧、评剧和豫剧”时,可将其着作是句子的状语,译为together with Beijing Opera, Yue Opera, PingOpera and Yu Opera。

儒家思想
请将下面这段话翻译成英文:
儒家思想
儒家思想(Confucianism)是中国影响最大的思想流派,也是中国古代的主流意识。自汉代以来,儒家思想就是封建统治阶级(feudal ruling class)的`指导思想之一。儒家思想的核心其实是一种人道主义(humanism )。它提倡自我修养,认为人是可教化的、可完善的。儒家思想的一个宏大的目标就是实现“大同社会”,在这样的一个社会中,每个人都能扮演好自己的角色,并与他人维持良好的关系。
参考翻译:
Confucianism
Confucianism is the largest Chinese school ofthoughts, and the mainstream consciousness ofthe ancient China. Confucianism had been one of theruling doctrines of the feudal ruling class since theHan Dynasty. The core of Confucianism is actually a kind of humanism. It advocates self-cultivation, and believes that human beings are teachable and improvable.

1.思想流派:可译为school of thoughts。
2.指导思想:可译为ruling doctrine,也可直译为guiding ideology。
3.自我修养:应翻译为self-cultivation。cultivate除了有“耕种;照料”之意,还可以表示“修养,改善”。
4.可教化的、可完善的:都可以使用动词加上“-able”这一形容词后缀的构词法,故分别为teachable和improvable。
5.大同社会:孔子所提出的“大同”的特征是:“大道之行也,天下为公。选贤与能,讲信修睦…”从字面上也可看出,“大同”即为“和谐”之意, 故“大同社会”可译为 harmonious society 或 perfect society。
6.每个人:除可译为everybody、everyone以外,还可译为each individual, 更加强调个体。“扮演好某人的角色”即为play one's part/role well。
