第8讲 第四章 句子的翻译 4.1主要句子成分的选择确定：主语 上讲练习详解（练习重点：汉语四字格、成语等） 在中国西南部的四川省，有一座著名的峨眉山，山势雄伟，山路崎岖，峰峦叠嶂，岩洞幽深。 由平地攀登峰巅的金顶，高达三千零六十公尺，经过四十八盘，山径绵延六十里，需要两天多时间才能到达。 山巅气候寒冷，纵然六月炎夏，还得穿着棉衣，引火取暖。若是三九寒天，更是滴水成冰，山上极少鲜花，只有沙椤花、冷杉树、和郁郁葱葱的翠柏苍松。 森林中鸟兽成群，很难看见人迹。虽然有些修道之士，却都是隐居古刹，老死不相往来的。 某生习作（Thanks to this contributor!）： There is a famous Mount Emei in Sichan province in the southwest of China. It is a grand mountain with rugged roads,ridges and peaks rising one higher than another and a quiet and deep grotto. It will take people two days to arrive there from the ground to the top of gold summit through a height of 3060 meters, 48 circles and trails stretching for 6 miles . The climate is cold. For instance, it is no exaggeration that people still wear cotton-padded clothes and strike a fire to get warm in hot summer of June. If it is frigid and cold, even the dripping water forms into ice； there are few flowers but sand tree fern flowers, fir tree and luxuriantly green pines and cypresses. There are many groups of birds and animals in the woods without seeing the footprints nearly.Although some hermits live in the old mountain temple, they lead a solitude life . My comments: 第一句不宜用there?be句型，改为Mt.?Emei?seats?in?…之类，应为话题重点是峨眉山。表达要灵活一些，诸如“滴水成冰”无非极言其冷而已，不必逐字照译。注意这是一个景点介绍，目的无疑是要吸引游客，因此表达不要让人觉得这地方很可怕！查查”沙椤花“到底是什么花。最后一句temple你用的是单数，那么后面的solitude?life就有些不好理解了。前三段我没有发现什么句法错误，很好。最后一段第一句“without?seeing?…”有问题：按英语句法，“seeing”的逻辑主语将是什么？与原意相符么？ 我的译文： 在中国西南部的四川省，有一座著名的峨眉山，山势雄伟，山路崎岖，峰峦叠嶂，岩洞幽深。 由平地攀登峰巅的金顶，高达三千零六十公尺，经过四十八盘，山径绵延六十里，需要两天多时间才能到达。 山巅气候寒冷，纵然六月炎夏，还得穿着棉衣，引火取暖。若是三九寒天，更是滴水成冰，山上极少鲜花，只有沙椤花、冷杉树、和郁郁葱葱的翠柏苍松。 森林中鸟兽成群，很难看见人迹。虽然有些修道之士，却都是隐居古刹，老死不相往来的。 On Sichuan Province southwest of China lies the famed Mt. Emei in its own grandeur, with paths winding through its rows of peaks hiding here and there the caves of mystery. The altitude from the mountain foot to its Golden Summit amounts as high as 3060 meters, and it takes two day and more to cover the 30 km climbing and the 48 hairpin turn
