1. another common point between the people of our two countries
解析:本题考查通过增补介词使译文的意思更完整。虽然原文没有和between相对应的词,但是"共同点"是两国人民之间在某方面进行比较的结果,所以增补between之后,符合英语表达习惯。增词法也是汉译英中常用技巧之一,再如:她以教书为业。(She is a teacher by occupation.)我已重新考虑了那件事。(I’ve
had second thought on that matter.)
2. were widely read in English-speaking countries
解析:若是按照字面翻译,这句话很可能被译为were widely read in English countries。但是原文中"英语国家"的含义是"讲英语的国家"。这体现了英汉表达差异。请考生看下面这句话的英译:我卖掉了彩电。/I sold out my color TV. 这句译文错误在于,没弄清"彩电"的含义。"彩电"有两层意思:一是指具体的实物,即彩色电视机color TV set;二是指屏幕上出现的影像,即彩色电视color TV。而句子中卖掉的只能是机器,具体的实物。
3. and so does reform
解析:本题意为:革命是解放生产力,改革也是解放生产力。考点有二:第一,考查词性转移。原文中"解放"用作动词,"生产力"作宾语。译文中处理成名词短语 "对生产力的解放"。第二,考查省译法。我们不能把原文译成and reform also means the emancipation of the productive forces,这种结构显得臃肿累赘。为避免重复,可以选用and so does...来代替这个动宾结构。
4. about the present development of information industry
解析:"对......表示乐观"可以用句型be optimistic about sth.。这句话不能译成about the status of the present development of information industry。"状况"是一个范畴词,没有实际含义,可省略不译。
5. serve the economic development
解析:"服务于......"即"为......服务",所以要用serve sb./ sth.的结构,不能译成be served to。"进程"也是一个范畴词,可以省略不译。另外,be subordinated to是一个固定结构,含义是"从属于......,隶属于......"。
6. It is not until they lose it
大家对not until/until的用法掌握比较好,不过比较少人用it来替代下文的health,答案的替代比较简洁,翻译中应该避免重复使用同一个词。
7.with dirty clothes
这里主要是考察be stuffed with (被填满)的用法,这是一个四级单词,是搭配问题。
8.With many friends absent
这里主要是考察对absent adj./vi./absence n.缺席的各种表达,如果按照原文“不在”翻译,显然比较生硬且与下文不符,因此要善于根据上下文推断原文意思。
9.What impressed me the most
名词性从句what impressed me the most,有部分沪友遗漏了其中的“the”,表示最高级一般都要使用定贯词the,如the largest、the hardest等。
10. less powerful than the ones we have made
很多人都用比较级,可是却忽略了比较级是用在形容词/副词上的,如faster、bigger、more beautiful等。因此这里应该用power的形容词powerful,另要强调机器是我们制造的-we have made.
