六级英语翻译

大纲解读

1. 考查方式：段落汉译英。

2. 涉及主题：中国的历史、文化、经济、社会发展等。

3. 篇幅：六级为180-200个汉字。

4. *卷面分：106.5 / 710。

5. *考试时长：30分钟。

第一步：Extracting（提炼主干）

1.五种简单句

① 主 + 谓  I cried. 我哭了。

② 主 + 谓 + 宾 I miss you. 我想你。

③ 主 + 谓 + 宾 + 宾 She gave me a book. 她给了我一本书。

④ 主 + 谓 + 宾 + 补 He made me laugh. 他把我逗笑了。

⑤ 主 + 系 + 表 You are pretty. 你好美。

2. 特殊标志句

在汉语中具有明显的英文对应标志；固定搭配等

e.g.1. 中国人不仅在国内旅游，出国旅游也越来越普遍。。— 2016.12

e.g.2. 正是通过丝绸之路，中国的造纸、火药、指南针、印刷术等四大发明才被引介到世界各地。— 2013.12

e.g.3. 青海湖被誉为"中国最美的湖泊" ，是最受欢迎的旅游景点之一。— 2021.06

e.g.4. 越来越多其他国家的人也开始学习汉语。—2019.06

第二步：Analyzing（分析修饰）

◼ 定语：用于修饰名词或名词性内容

◼ 状语：用于修饰动词（包含系动词）

◼ 同位语：用于扩展说明某“概括性名词”

1. 定语语序：

        汉语中的定语通常放在先行词之前，英语中的定语遵循【短前长后】的原则，大致体现为：较短的定语放在先行词之前，较长的定语放在先行词之后。

2. 状语语序：

        汉语中的状语通常集中在句子前部，英语中的状语则遵循【自由四号位】原则，即状语可根据语句的通顺程度自由选择摆放位置，包括放在主语之前、主谓之间、谓宾之间，或宾语之后。

3. 同位语语序：

        汉语中的同位语与英语一致，通常紧随先行词后，同位语词或短语一般作插入语形式出现；同位语从句通常由连接词引导句子放在先行词后。

e.g.1. Your English tutor, Marex, is working out recently.

e.g.2. Peking University, one of the greatest universities in China, is located in Haidian District.

e.g.3. I still have the concern what will happen when he gets to know the fact.

e.g.4. We just received the result that you are hired!

第三步：Sorting（梳理细节）

1. 时态：

六级翻译中通常考察以下6种时态

常用时态	时态形式	汉语常见字词
一般现在时	do / does	如今、现在、目前、往往、常常…
一般将来时	will do be going to do be to do be about to do	将、将要、会、将会、计划、（如果）… 那么…、未来、就要…
一般过去时	did	从前、前不久、过去、…过、曾经、曾 一度、在古代、刚、才、最初、原先…
现在进行时	am / is / are doing	正、正在、…着、一直、逐渐、不断…
现在完成时	have / has done	…了、已、已经、早就、近年来、一直、
现在完成进行时	have / has been doing	一直以来、从…开始、自…以来、逐渐…

1.有明显时间标志，则根据标志来；

2.无明显时间标志，则根据语境来。

练习：

① 现在，成千上万的国内外游客蜂拥到洛阳参加一年一度的牡丹节（Peony Festival）。 （一般现在时）

• Now, thousands of tourists from home and abroad flock to Luoyang for the annual Peony Festival.

• Now, thousands of tourists from home and abroad flock to Luoyang to participate in the annual Peony Festival.

2. 语态：

主动语态 × 被动语态

be done

汉语中的被动语态主要有两种语言表达形式：【显性被动】与【隐性被动】。显性

被动通常出现汉语中明确表示被动逻辑的字词，例如：被、由、给、受、受到、让、

为…所，等等；隐性被动则不出现明确表示被动逻辑的字词，而要通过句子成分间

的关系进行判断。

① 明朝统治中国276年，被人们描绘成人类历史上治理有序、社会稳定的最伟大的时代之一。

• The Ming Dynasty was depicted as one of the greatest periods of human history for its organized governance and stable society. / that thrived with orderly governance and stable society. / whose governance was orderly and whose society was stable.

保护措施。

• As the railway travels through the most fragile ecosystem in the world, /As the world’s most fragile ecosystem is traversed by the railway, ecological protection measures have been taken during and after the construction.

3. 逻辑：

汉语是意合语言，即行文说话往往将语句间的逻辑关系隐含在语义中，不以明显的语言标志作为逻辑信号；而英文是形合语言，即必须要用明显的语言标志来构建语句间的逻辑。汉译英的过程也是【意合转形合】的过程，因此需要在翻译时读懂语

句间的逻辑，并外化成英文的逻辑引导词。

逻辑类型	逻辑关系词
联合关系	and, both…and, neither…nor…, as well as, together with, with, meanwhile, in the meantime, at the same time 等
递进关系	and, both…and, neither…nor…, furthermore, moreover, besides, even, not only…but (also)…, in addition, additionally 等
转折关系	but, yet, while, whereas, though, although, as, even though, even if, despite, in spite of, regardless of, instead, still, however nevertheless, nonetheless, that said 等
因果关系	表原因：because, since, as, for, owing to, due to, for the reason that, thanks to 等 表结果：so, so that, so…that, thus, therefore, consequently, as a result, hence, turn out, …that is why…等
选择关系	either…or…, or 等

④ 也就是说，土豪（tuhao）有钱，却没有品味。

• In other words, tuhao is wealthy but doesn’t have good taste.

4. 逻辑：

针对六级翻译的逻辑梳理过程中，还需要注意另一种形式的汉语文本，即短语罗列。这种文本通常采用对仗、排比等手法，淡化语句间的逻辑，从而增加逻辑梳理的难度。考生应根据这些短语的内在逻辑进行提炼。

① 牡丹花色艳丽，形象高雅，象征着和平与繁荣，因而在中国被称为“花中之王” 。

• The peony has bright colors and the elegant image, symbolizing peace and prosperity, so it is known as the "King of Flowers" in China.
