The Quest

Taking the train, the two friends arrived in Berlin in late October 1922, and went directly to the address of Chou En-lai. Would this man receive them as fellow countrymen, or would he treat them with cold suspicion and question them cautiously about their past careers as militarists? Chu Teh remembered his age. He was thirty-six, his youth had passed like a screaming eagle, leaving him old and disillusioned.

When Chou En-lai’s door opened they saw a slender man of more than av erage height with gleaming eyes and a face so striking that it bordered on the beautiful. Yet it was a manly face, serious and intelligent, and Chu judged him to be in his middle twenties.

Chou was a quiet and thoughtful man, even a little shy as he welcomed his visitors, urged them to be seated and to tell how he could help them.

Ignoring the chair offered him, Chu Teh stood squarely before this youth more than ten years his junior and in a level voice told him who he was, what he had done in the past, how he had fled from Yunnan, talked with Sun Yat-sen, been repulsed by Chen Tu-hsiu in Shanghai, and had come to Europe to find a new way of life for himself and a new revolutionary road for China. He wanted to join the Chinese Communist Party group in Berlin, he would study and work hard, he would do anything he was asked to do but return to his old life, which had turned to ashes beneath his feet.

As he talked Chou En-lai stood facing him, he head a little to one side as was his habit, listening intently until the story was told, and then questioning him.

When both visitors had told their stories, Chou smiled a little, said he would help them find rooms, and arrange for them to join the Berlin Communist group as candidates until their application had been sent to China and an answer received. When the reply came a few months later they were enrolled as full members, but Chu’s membership was kept a secret from outsiders.

探索

他们两个人坐火车于一九二二年十月到达柏林,立即去周恩来的住处。这个人会不会像同胞手足一样接待他们呢?会不会疑虑重重,详细询问他们在军阀时代的经历呢?朱德想起自己的年龄,他已三十六岁,青春像一路鸣叫的鹰,早已一闪而逝,留给他的是衰老和幻灭。

周恩来的房门打开时,他们看到的是一个身材瘦长、比普通人略高一点的人,两眼闪着光辉,面貌很引人注意,称得上清秀。可是,那是个男子汉的面庞,严肃而聪颖,朱德看他大概是二十五六岁的年龄。

周恩来举止优雅,待人体贴,在招呼他们坐下,询问有何见教的时候,甚至还有些腼腆。

朱德顾不得拉过来的椅子,端端正正地站在这个比他年轻十岁的青年面前,用平稳的语调,说明自己的身份和经历:他怎样逃出云南,怎样会见孙中山,怎样在上海被陈独秀拒绝,怎样为了寻求自己的新的生活方式和中国的新的革命道路而来到欧洲。他要求加入中国共产党在柏林的党组织,他一定会努力学习和工作,只要不再回到旧的生活里去——它已经在他的脚底下化为尘埃了——派他做什么工作都行。

他娓娓而谈,周恩来就站在他面前,习惯地侧着头,一直听到朱德把话说完,才提出问题。

两位来客把经历说完后,周恩来微笑着说,他可以帮他们找到住的地方,替他们办理加入党在柏林的支部的手续,在入党申请书寄往中国而尚未批准之前,暂作候补党员。过了几个月,回信来了,两人都被吸收为正式党员,但朱德的党籍对外界保持秘密。

Bill Morrow’s Birthday Party

Several times on his trip’s to China, which he made as a guest of the Chinese Government, Bill’s birthday occurred while he was in Beijing. On these occasions he was given a dinner in his honor and Premier Zhou En-lai would attend. He remembered the first occasion: At the hotel always finished the meal with icecream and the girls there would laugh because I liked it so much. Zhou En-lai was at my birthday party and at the end he got up, went over to the counter and got an icecream and he put it down in front of me — this is the Prime Minister you know! He said ‘This is for you’. I said “I didn’t know you could speak English’. He laughed and he said ‘a little bit’ measuring with his finger and thumb. Sometimes when we were alone then he’d speak to me in English.

‘This is for you,’ Bill Morrow heard on many occasion he would never forget — such as when he was taken in a boat down the Grand Canal, and every boat that passed sounded its siren in salutation. Or when he was shown over the great Nanjing bridge, built where the ferries used to carry trains across the Changjiang River. He was given a chair and asked to wait a little as darkness came on, then suddenly the whole bridge was outlined in lights. ‘This is for you.’‘You mustn’t use all that electricity to please me,’ he protested, ‘all Nanjing will enjoy it too,’ he was told.

Zhou En-lai arranged for experts from Beijing University to give Bill Morrow some up-to-date information he wanted. ‘I’m just an old bum at home,’ Bill said, ‘but here you treat me like a VIP.’ We know what you have done,’ said Zhou En-lai.

参考译文:

比尔·莫罗的寿宴

比尔作为中国政府的客人访问中国,好几次者赶上在北京过生日。每次,主人总要为他举行宴会,周恩来总理也出席。他还记得第一次生日宴会的情景:

我在饭店吃饭,最后总是吃冰激凌。我吃得津津有味,惹得那些女服务员发笑。这次生日宴会,周恩来在场。快到结束的时候,他站起来,走到柜台前,要了一杯冰激凌,放在我面前——别忘了,他可是总理呀!他对我说:“这是为您准备的。”我说:“没想到您会说英语呀。”他笑了起来,接着说:“一点点。”一面说着,一面用食指和拇指比划着。后来有时候我们单独在一起,他就跟我说英语。

“这是为您准备的。”这句话,比尔·莫罗在许多难忘的场合听到过——比如在他乘般沿大运河南下的时候,从旁边驶过的每一条般都拉响汽笛,表示敬意。再比如参观南京长江大桥;在修这座桥以前,要靠渡般在这里运送火车过江。参观大桥的时候,天快黑了,人家给了他一把椅子,请他坐下等一会儿。忽然电灯全亮了,照出了整个大桥的轮廓。“这是为您准备的。”他不满地说道:“你们不应该费这么多电,就为了让我高兴。”人家对他说:“全南京也都可以欣赏嘛。”

比尔·莫罗想了解一些新的情况,周恩来就安排北京大学的专家向他作介绍。比尔说:“我在国内不过是个流浪汉,而你们在这里却把我当成一位要人。”周恩来却说:“您做过些什么,我们是知道的。”

英语翻译技巧选修课讲义

第一单元词语的翻译(1) 增词法 汉英两种语言在词法和句法结构方面存在着极大的差别。例如,英语中有词形变化,汉语中没有;英语中大量用连词、介词、关系代词等,而汉语中各成分往往通过内在的关系贯串在一起,不一定或很少使用连词和介词,也没有关系代词。所以,翻译时常常有必要在译文的词量上作适当的增加,使译文既能忠实地传达原文的内容和风格,又能符合译入语的表达习惯,但是增词必须是根据具体情况增加非增加不可的词语。 汉译英中的增词 一、根据句法结构需要增词 1.增补主语 汉语里无主语的句子相当多,汉译英时常常要根据上下文的意思选择适当的代词或名词补做主语。增加什么样的主语则取决于上下文。 例1:不坚持就会失败。 One will fail unless —one perseveres. 例2:怕要下雨了。 I am afraid it is going to rain. 例3:又要马儿跑得快,又要马儿不吃草,简直可笑! You want the horse to run fast and yet you don’t 1et it graze.Isn’t it ridiculous! 2.增补非人称的或强调句中的it 英语中it除了指天气、时间等外,还常用来表示强调、代替不定式等。汉语中有许多表达方法,英译时需增补it。 例4:一天天冷起来了。 It is getting colder day by day. 例5:是我们采取有效措施的时候了。 It’s time we took effective measures. 例6:尝试而失败还是比不尝试好。 It’s better to try and fail than never try at a1l. 从以上例句可以看出汉英语言表达思想顺序的不同。如果一个句子里既有叙事部分,又有表态部分,在汉语里往往是叙事在前,表态在后。叙事部分比较长,表语部分一般都很短(如句中的“不容易”、“容易”、“好”)。在英语中则往往相反,表态在前,叙事在后。所以译文中要增补it作先行主语,以便把较短的表态部分放在前面。 下面两个例句中it起强调作用。 例7:我们费了很大力气才解决了那些问题。 It was with great effort that we solved those problems. 例8:我们这样做都是为了你好。 It was for your benefit that we did all that. 3. 增补作宾语的代词或先行宾语it 在汉语中,只要从上下文能正确理解,宾语常常可以省略,但在英语中凡及物动词都得有宾语,因此在英译时经常要增补宾语。 例9:我们认为理论与实践相结合是十分重要的。 We think it most important that theory should be combined with practice.

No matter what method you may use, your translation should be correct, comprehensible to the target reader and close to the original style. Only when you keep the meaning and spirit of the original sentence structure a nd/or its figure of speech can your translation be regarded as proper literal translation, otherwise it is merely mechanical translation. Similarly, only when change the original sentence structure and/or the figure of speech but make no addition or deletion of the original meaning and spirit, can your translation be regarded as proper translation; otherwise it is simply random translation.

英汉翻译第一讲讲义

第一讲绪论 内容提要:时代呼唤翻译,翻译促进时代的发展。信息时代的特点之一是知识的交流与共享。翻译同一个民族的文明程度密切相关。中国的翻译事业任重而道远。介绍外国和对外介绍中国同样紧迫。翻译的理论研究、实践指导和课堂教学都亟待加强。 一、为什么要学翻译 翻译是语言工作者一项不可或缺的技能,是语言交流的一种手段,是不同语言使用者之间一种重要的交流工具。在今天这个信息化时代,随着社会的发展和进步,随着各国人民交流的日益频繁,翻译更是各国进行经济、文化、政治交流的有效工具,是世界各国谋求发展的重要途径。 二、翻译的定义、过程和性质 翻译是一种交际方式,可以从广义和狭义两方面来理解。广义上的翻译包括所有的符号之间、非符号之间、符号和非符号之间的转换行为。比如,一个手势变成一种语言,把汉语的文言文转变成白话文(语内翻译),把语言转化为计算机符号,甚至把你的所想所思诸于笔端,都是一种翻译。狭义上的翻译就是将一种语言转化成另一种语言,即语际翻译(interlingual translation)。这样的一种活动包括口头的和笔头的,即口译(interprettion)和笔译(translation)。 异化(foreignizing)指的是根据既定的语法规则按字面意思将和源语文化紧密相连的短语或句子译成目标语。例如,将“九牛二虎之力”译为“the strength of nine bulls and two tigers”。异化能够很好地保留和传递原文的文化内涵,使译文具有异国情调,有利于各国文化的交流。但对于不熟悉源语及其文化的读者来说,存在一定的理解困难。异化和同化具有相对性,随着各国文化交流愈来愈紧密,原先对于目标语读者很陌生的词句也会变得越来越普遍,即异化的程度会逐步降低。 归化(domestication)是指遵守目标语言文化当前的主流价值观,公然对原文采用保守的同化手段,使其迎合本土的典律,出版潮流和政治需求(Venuti,2001:240)〔1〕;或指在翻译中采用透明、流畅的风格(transparent, fluent style),最大限度地淡化原文的陌生感(strangeness)的翻译策略 (Shuttleworth&Cowie,1997:43-44)〔2〕。主张以目的语文化为归宿的“归化派”提出译文不仅要克服语言的障碍,还要克服文化的障碍,而译者的责任之一就是避免文化冲突。同时,译者也是“传播者”,他不应对读者的智力和想象力提出过高的要求,而应尽可能的是源语文本所反映的世界接近目的语文化读者的世界,从而达到源语文化与目的语文化之间的“文化对等”。 异化(foreignization)是指偏离本土主流价值观,保留原文的语言和文化差异(Venuti,2001:240)〔1〕;或指在一定程度上保留原文的异域性(foreignness),故意打破目标语言常规的翻译(Shuttleworth&Cowie,1997:59)〔2〕。主张在译文中保留源语文化的“异化派”提出翻译的主要目的是文化间的交流,源语文化将会丰富目的语文化和目的语的语言表达方式。读者的阅读目的也包括想了解异国文化,译者应相信读者的智力和想象力能理解异国文化的特异之处〔3〕。

《翻译理论与实践》考试理论部分复习提纲 一、翻译定义: 1. 张培基——翻译是用一种语言把另一种语言所表达的思维内容准确而完整地重新表达出来的语言活动。? 3. 刘宓庆——翻译的实质是语际的意义转换。? 4. 王克非——翻译是将一种语言文字所蕴含的意思用另一种语言文字表达出来的文化活动。 5. 泰特勒——好的翻译应该是把原作的长处完全地移注到另一种语言,以使译入语所属国家的本地人能明白地领悟、强烈地感受,如同使用原作语言的人所领悟、所感受的一样。? 6. 费道罗夫——翻译就是用一种语言把另一种语言在内容与形式不可分割的统一中所有已表达出来的东西准确而完全地表达出来。? 7. 卡特福德——翻译的定义也可以这样说:把一种语言(Source Language)中的篇章材料用另一种语言(Target Language)中的篇章材料来加以代替。 8.奈达——翻译就是在译入语中再现与原语信息最切近的自然对等物,首先就意义而言,其次就是文体而言。 “Translating consists in reproducing in the receptor language the closest natural equivalent of the source language message, first in terms of meaning and secondly in terms of style.”---Eugene Nida 纽马克——通常(虽然不能说总是如此),翻译就是把一个文本的意义按作者所想的方式移译入另一种文字(语言)。“Translation is a craft consisting in the attempt to replace a written message and/or statement in one language by the same message and/or statement in another language.”--- Peter Newmark 10. “Translation is the expression in one language (or target language译入语) of what has been expressed in another language (source language 原语), preserving semantic and stylistic equivalences.”--- Dubois 12. 13.Translation or translating is a communicative activity or dynamic process in which the translator makes great effort to thoroughly comprehend a written message or text in the source language and works very hard to achieve an adequate or an almost identical reproduction in the target language version of the written source language message or text. 二、翻译标准 1. 翻译的标准概括为言简意赅的四个字:“忠实(faithfulness)、通顺(smoothness)”。忠实指的是忠实于原文。通顺指的是译文的语言必须合乎规范、通俗易懂。? 2. 严复对翻译曾经提出“信(faithfulness)、达(expressiveness)、雅(elegance)”的标准:“译事三难:信、达、雅。求其信已大难矣,顾信矣不达,虽译犹不译也,则达尚焉。” 3.“泰特勒三原则”:(1)That the Translation should give a complete transcript of the ideas of the original work;(2)That the style and manner of writing should be of the
