问题    我喜爱湖。湖是大地的眼睛,湖是一种流动的深情,湖是生活中没有被剥夺的一点奇妙。早在幼年时候,一见到北海公园的太液池,我就眼睛一亮。在贫穷和危险的旧社会,太液池是一个意外的惊喜,是一种奇异的温柔,是一种孩提式的敞露与清流。
   我常常认为,大地与人之间有一种奇妙的契合。山是沉重的责任与名节的矜持;海是浩渺的遐思与变易的丰富;沙漠是希望与失望交织的庄严的等待;河流是一种寻求、一种机智、一种被辖制的自由……

选项

答案    I love lakes. For they are the eyes of the mother earth: they are the flowing deep love: and they are the wonders surviving in our life. As early as I was still a kid, I was always lit up at the sight of Lake of Taiye in Beihai Park. In the society stricken by poverty and full of danger, Lake of Taiye was an unexpected surprise, a kind of fantastic tenderness as well as a kind of childlike openness and purity.
   I often think that the land bears a marvelously harmonious relationship with us people: mountains stand for the great responsibility and the reserved reputation and integrity: seas for the illimitable thoughts and inexhaustible changes: deserts for the solemn expectation interweaved with hope and despair: and rivers for the spirit of pursuit, wisdom and restricted freedom...

解析    这段材料选自著名作家王蒙的散文《湖》。选段中作者直抒胸臆,表达了自己对湖的无限热爱,其语言紧凑,节奏明快,且富有哲理,给人隽永的韵味。其中精彩的叠句,斐然的文采,自然的情韵都是翻译中的难点。
1.第一段第一句中要处理好“湖”用单数还是复数的问题,译文用零冠词加复数名词的形式,泛指一类事物。
2.第一段第二句包含三个并列分句,可按原文结构直接翻译。其中“大地的眼睛”可译为the eyes of the mother earth;“流动的”译为flowing。
3.第一段第三句翻译时要注意汉语小句向英文介词短语的转换,“一见到北海公园的太液池”译为at the sight of Lake of Taiye in Beihai Park,更符合英文表达习惯;“眼睛一亮”可使用light sb.up,由于原句中的主语过长,所以翻译时处理为英文中的被动语态更为恰当。
4.第一段第四句由多个并列分句构成,翻译时注意省略。其中“贫穷和危险的旧社会”可译为the society stricken by poverty and full of danger;“意外的惊喜”译为unexpected surprise;“奇异的温柔”译为fantastic tenderness;“孩提式的敞露与清流”译为childlike openness and purity。
5.第二段第一句中“有一种奇妙的契合”可译为bears a marvelously harmonious relationship with。
6.第二段第二句由多个并列句构成,翻译时同样要注意省略。其中“是”根据语义可译为stand for;“名节”可译为reputation and integrity。
