第九章 长句的译法; 在表达一些较复杂的概念时，英、汉两种语言差别较大。 英语的特点是：利用各种修饰语，构成较长的简单句，利用适当的连词将简单句构成更长的并列句或复合句。因此科技英语中常使用长句子。 汉语的特点是：尽量分成几个简短的句子来说明某个概念，不经常使用较长的句子。 即：英语——常使用长句子。 汉语——常使用多个简单句。;根据上述特点，在翻译时，应将英语长句破开成几个汉语短句，然后再根据逻辑次序和意思轻重，重新安排句子结构：有的顺译，有的倒译，有的分译。 ;翻译的步骤：;9.1 顺译法;Gas absorption is an operation in which a gas mixture is contacted with a liquid for the purposes of preferentially dissolving one or more components of the gas and to provide a solution of these in the liquid. 译文： 气体吸收是这样一种操作：让气体混合物与液体接触，以使气体中的一种或多种组分优先溶解在液体中，并提供由这些组分和液体所形成的溶液。;There have been opened up to the vast and excellent science，in which my work is the beginning, ways and means by which other minds more acute than mine will explore its remote corners. 译文： 通往伟大而美好科学的途径和手段已经展现在眼前。在科学领域中，我的研究只是个开端，比我敏锐的其他人所采用的途径和手段将会探索科学领域的遥远境地。;The continuous process although requiring more carefully designed equipment than the batch process, can ordinarily be handled in less space, fits in with other continuous steps more smoothly, and can be conducted at any prevailing pressure without release to atmospheric pressure. 译文： 虽然连续过程比间歇过程要求更为周密设计的设备，但连续过程通常能节约操作空间，较顺利地适应其它连续操作步骤，并能在任何常用的压力厂进行，而不必暴露在大气中。;How these two things—energy and matter—behave, how they interact one with the other, and how people control them to serve themselves make up the substance of two basic physical sciences, physics and chemistry. 能量和物质这两样东西具有什么样的性质，如何相互起作用，如何控制它们为人类服务，这些问题就构成了物理和化学两门基础自然科学的主要内容。;This simple fact shows that the more of the force of friction is got rid of, the further will the ball travel, and we are led to infer that, if all the impeding force of gravitation could be removed, there is no reason why the ball, once in motion, should ever stop. 这一简单事实表明，摩擦力越小，球会滚得越远。由此我们可以推论，如果把对引力起着阻碍作用的一切阻力排除掉，那么曾经处于运动状态的球就没有理由会再停下来了。;9.2 倒译法(变序译法);This is why the hot water system in a furnace will operate without the use of a water pump, if the pipes are arranged so that the hottest water rises while the coldest water runs down
