1、四级翻译为段落汉译英，翻译内容涉及中国的历史、文化、经济、社会发 展等。长度为 140160 个汉字。考查考生理解和表达两个层面，要求考生做到 译文准确，基本表达原文意思。 本次翻译考察三大交通工具飞机(共 145 字)，公交(共 148 字)和地铁(共 147 字)，是大家比较熟悉的话题，因此在词汇层面难度不大。虽然主题不同， 但涉及到的词汇表达和考点一致。如三篇段落翻译中都涉及到“越来越”“持 续”“不断”“提高”“改善”“出行”“服务”“交通工具”等和乘交通工 具的表达（选用 take 或者 by 都可） 。另外，涉及到的考点有： （1）被动句的翻译，考察学生是否能理解“无被字”的中文句
2、子中的被动 结构并转换为英文译文中的被动句。如“车辆的设施不断更新（公交车 篇）”“航空服务不断改进（飞机篇） ； （2）长定语的翻译，考察学生是否能理解较长的定语并转换为正确的定语 表达。如“节假日期间选择乘飞机外出旅游的人不断增加（飞机篇）”中“选 择乘飞机外出的”长定语和“公交车曾是中国人出行的主要交通工具（公交篇） 中“中国人出行”的长定语； （3）动名词的翻译，考察学生是否能准确理解句子主干结构并转换为正确 的译文。如“乘飞机出行对大多数中国人来说是难以想象的”主干结构是“乘 飞机是难以想象的”。 整体来说，本试题难度中等，相比去年，考察的词汇难度，表达难度 和考点难度均有所下降。

8、方式在上课时均有讲解。 词汇方面，交通工具的表达比较恰当的表达是 mode of transportation， 翻译成“traffic tool”其实并不是很妥当。“设施”一词的对应翻译 “facility”如果不容易想到，可以选择更容易些的 equipment。 句子方面，首句“公交车曾是中国人出行的主要交通工具。”如果想不到 “used to be”这样比较地道的表达，简化版表达“Bus was an important” 想到大胆地使用出来。 长句“许多城市为了鼓励更多人乘坐公交车出行，一直在努力改善公交车 的服务质量。 ”可以选择嵌套进一些词组 （in order to） 与从句(w

12、增 加“instead of private cars”，保证句与句之间衔接的紧密性。 第二种是语态和语序的变换。在语态方面主要是主被动语态的转换。因为 汉语中出现频率较高的是主动语态，而英语中被动语态的出现频率更高，同学 们要根据具体情况来随时变换语态。除此之外，英语和汉语在表达语序上不可 避免的存在很大的差异，因此需要大家在翻译的过程中注意随时调整翻译的语 序。 例如：车辆的设施不断更新，车速也有了显著提高。在翻译此句时，英语 需要使用被动语态，译为：The facilities of buses have been upgraded, and the speed increased si
