全国英语四级翻译模拟题测试 在中国的南方和北方，饮食差异很大，也就是说，北方厨师(chef)所烹饪的菜肴口味更重，而在南方的食谱(recipe)中，菜肴的味道相对清淡。有时我们说南方菜肴的美味在于它的甜度和新奇。在中国的一些省份，如宁夏、河北、四川、陕西和云南，餐食多为辣味，这是由于湿冷的.天气和高海拔(high altitude)所导致的。人们认为出汗是预防湿冷气候导致的疾病的一个好方法。 参考译文 There is a big difference about the diets between Northern and Southern China.that is.the dishes made by Northern chefs are in heavier taste and those are comparably light in Southern chefsrecipes.Sometimes.we say it is tasty as sweet and fresh in Southern dishes.In some provinces of China like Ningxia， Hebei，Sichuan，Shaanxi and Yunnan，the diets are made hot and spicy because of the humid cold weather and high altitude.People believe that to sweat is a good method for preventing diseases caused by humidity and cold. 难点解释 1.第一句中，“饮食差异很大”可译为there is a big difference about the diets;“也就是说”可译为that is;“口味更重”可译为in heavier taste;“相对清淡”可译为comparably light。 2.其次句中，“美味在于它的甜度和新奇”可译为it is tasty as sweet and fresh。 3.第三句中，“餐食多为辣味”可译为the diets are made hot and spicy。 4.第四句中，“预防湿冷气候导致的疾病的一个好方法”可译为a good method for preventing diseases caused by humidity and cold。 part 2 请将下面这段话翻译成英文： 茶马古道(Tea-horse Ancient Road)两边，生活着20多个少数 民族。不同的地方有着各自漂亮而奇妙的自然风景和传统文化，比 如:大理，丽江古城，香格里拉(Shangrila),雅鲁藏布江大峡谷和布 达拉宫(Potala Palace)。古道的两旁有庙宇、岩石壁画、骚站(post ?house),古桥和木板路，还有少数民族舞蹈和民族服装。时至今日，虽然这条古道的踪迹都消逝了，但它的文化和历史价值仍旧存在。 参考译文： Along the Tea-horse Ancient Road lived more than 20 minori?ties.
