解析 1.第一句较长,可将句子分译成两句,将“月饼是中国人在中秋节食用的传统食品”单独译为一句。定语“中国人在中秋节所食用的”较长可使用过去分词短语eaten by…during…表达,作后置定语修饰“传统食品”。
“一般呈圆形。寓意团圆……美好愿望”中,可将主干处理为“月饼一般呈圆形”,“寓意团圆幸福”可采用现在分词短语作伴随状语的形式,“反映了……”可用which引导的非限制性定语从句来表达。
2.第二句中的“后来逐渐形成了……的传统”可单独译一句,此句中文没有主语,翻译成英语可处理为被动语态,将“中秋吃月饼的传统”the tradition of eating moon cake作为句子的主语。
3.“月饼内馅多选用……有益”中“选用植物的种子”可译为被动语态the seeds of different plants are chosen;“对人们的健康有益”是对前一句的补充说明,可用which引导的非限制性定语从句。
4.“品种更加繁多……人们的喜爱”可译为由and连接的并列句Moon cake has more…and is liked by…。也可将“品种更加繁多,风味更加丰富”处理为介词短语with more varieties and flavors作状语。
