2.意译 译者在动笔翻译之前要深刻理解原文的中心思想和内容，按照中外语言文字的不同习惯，尽可能地把原文的思想、语气、风格、感情色彩再现出来，努力做到所谓的“信、达、雅”。 例6：The high rate of economic growth consistently achieved over decades by the Asian tigers has almost no equal anywhere at any time. 译文：亚洲四小龙的经济几十年来持续高速发展，几乎在全世界堪称空前绝后，前所未有。 例7：Sure, Bob, everybody talks about empowerment, but when the rubber hits the road, the bosses demand to have the last word. 译文：当然，Bob， 每个人都在谈论放权，但真正开始执行总要等老板的最后决策。 例8：What foreign businessmen find encouraging is that ideology is no longer in the driver’s seat. 译文：令外商感到鼓舞的是意识形态不再左右一切了。 3.艺术加工 翻译时使用最多的是完全对译和部分对译相结合的方法，同时还要进行艺术加工，即合并、拆散、引申、增加、减少、补充说明等。 例9：A document or instrument containing the terms of an enforceable obligation between the parties is called a “contract”. 译文：所谓合同，是指当事人订立的包含可执行义务条款的文书。 例10：CEO Finklestein: He needs to pull a rabbit out of his hat. 意译：首席执行官芬克斯泰因：他需要拿出一个绝招来。 例11: The trading companies’ elaborate communications networks—by far their strongest suit—are in serious trouble. 译文：堪称为商社王牌的完备的通讯网，也面临严重的困难。 课堂练习 1.
