Owning a cat can reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes by more than a third, researchers have found. Scientists said that having a cat helped to relieve stress and anxiety, which is known to help protect against heart disease by lowering blood pressure and reducing the heart rate.
The 10-year study looked at 4,435 adults aged between 30 and 75, about half of whom owned a cat. The findings, presented at a stroke conference in America, showed that 3.4 per cent of the cat owners died from a heart attack over 10 years. Among the group who had never owned a cat the rate was 5.8 per cent.
Cat owners still had a much reduced chance of developing strokes or heart attacks when researchers took account of other factors known to trigger heart disease, including high cholesterol levels, smoking and diabetes.
选项
答案
研究人员发现。养猫能使患心脏病和中风的风险降低1/3以上。科研人员称,养猫有助于减轻压力、缓解焦虑情绪,从而降低血压和心律,这有助于预防心脏病。
研究人员对4435名年龄在30至75岁之间的成人进行了为期10年的调查,调查对象中约有一半人养猫。研究结果在美国的一个中风研讨会上公布时显示.在这10年里,有3.4%的养猫人士死于心脏病,而从未养过猫的人死于心脏病的比例为5.8%。
研究人员还综合考虑了高胆固醇、吸烟和糖尿病等可能引发心脏病的其他一些因素.结果发现养猫人士患中风或心脏病的可能性还是要小很多。
解析
1、新闻报道力图全方位反映当代生活,因而涉及众多领域。要做好本篇翻译,考生需掌握一定的医学知识和医学术语,如stroke、cholesterol levels、diabetes等。
2、表明信息来源的结构在英语中一般后置,汉语则前置,故将第1段第1句的researchers have found译为“研究人员发现”放在句首。
3、汉语句子通常按事理排序,由轻及重,先因后果,叙述事件多半也是按时间先后。英语反道而行,或颠因倒果,或先出主要信息,其余信息于后追补。第1段第2句that从句中的动词按事件发展逻辑排序应该是relieve→lowering/reducing→protect,所以据此翻译。
4、西方人重客观实证,体现在语言中一般以客观事物或抽象概念作主语,而汉语中主语多由人来充当,如第2段第1句的主语The 10一year study在译文中应转换为“研究人员”作主语。
5、第2段第2、3句有对比关联,故译为一句话。presented at a stroke conference inAmerica为过去分词短语作插人语,这里译为状语,其中的stroke修饰conference,表示conference的议题,故而译为“中风研讨会”。
