考研英语一翻译 句子结构复杂
考研英语翻译试题的特点表现在以下三个方面：1. 五个句子超纲或较难的词汇较多;2. 句子结构有些太复杂，有一些特别难分析的句子;3. 话题也是广大考生不太熟悉的话题。20研究生入学考试英语一的翻译文章选自一本小品文集，题目是Gardens: An Essay on the Human Condition 。这篇文章的理论性不是特别强，对于大家来说应该不会感觉很很难，做起来应该困难不是很大。
我们反复强调翻译必考的句子成分，尤其是插入语，比如 46题的for all their diversity of styles, 47 题的的 crude it may be ，50题的though in a “liberated” sense,，属于我冲刺班提到的必考的让步状语，以及一些常用从句的翻译，比如46题的时间状语从句 yet when one looks at the photographs of the gardens created by the homeless,，属于翻译必考的从句。47题的 it…that… 强调句型;以及最难的46题从句套用，构成理解的最大障碍。这些都是在翻译课堂上反复提到必考的知识点，因此没掌握的学生肯定翻译不出来。
因此，考研再次提醒各位考生，英语翻译的备考不能只停留在“看”的层面上，要扎扎实实的“做”翻译，提高动手、动笔的能力，那样才能切实的提高翻译水平，那么如何做呢?建议大家，基础阶段可以把考研阅读中的长难句拿出来翻译，提高一些动手能力。那么拿到句子到底应该如何翻译呢?翻译句子解题思路：1、不要看每个单词是不是认识。2、看结构，译主干。3、找关系，加修饰。
例句：
He asserted, also, that his power to follow a long and purely abstract train of thought was very limited, for which reason he felt certain that he never could have succeeded with mathematics. (47题)
这句话很有难度，大家可以先自己动手写一些汉字，看自己会怎么翻译。大家在翻译期间可以感受一下你首先做什么，其次做什么，最后做什么，方法对不对。
拿到一个长难句，首先应该做的是看结构，译主干。拿到句子不要先看单词认不认识，而是先要看连接词，引导词，看句子的大结构。怎么去看呢?
先把主句从句分析出来。英语语法非常严谨，逻辑非常明确。That引导的是一个宾语从句，你可以用红色标注起来，这是一个大结构，后面for which大的定语从句，后面that又是一个宾语从句。就应该这样做，首先看出大主干，好，看完结构了，下一步就是译主干。我们把刚刚看到的主句和从句里面的核心主干找出来，“他也断言”第一个主干出来了，that引导的`宾语从句，就是his power，was, limited,我们就可以翻译他的能力是有限的，后面，for which reason因为这个原因，他感觉确信，再看后面的that从句，他从来，决定没有成功过。所以这就是句子的主干。如果你能做到这一步，就说明你理解了这个句子。最艰难的部分，follow这个词的翻译，主干出来了就是加修饰。To follow不定式做定语修饰能力，his power to follow a long and purely abstract train of thought was very limited。Follow的核心宾语是thought，这样翻译是：他跟随思维的能力非常有限。但是汉语中很少说跟随思维，can you follow me?是你能理解我吗?那么这里follow就是理解的意思，所以翻译成，他理解思维的能力非常有限，然后再加long是修饰思维的，所以我们再加，就是：他理解冗长的思维的能力非常有限。再接着加，就是abstract,他理解冗长而抽象的思维的能力非常有限。而purely 是修饰抽象的，所以就是：他理解冗长而纯粹抽象的思维的能力非常有限。但是我们不说纯粹抽象，说非常，极度抽象。所以改为：他理解冗长而极度抽象的思维的能力非常有限。再看train这个词，火车是一节节，所以我们把它看成是数量关系，一系列的思维，然后翻译为：他理解一系列冗长而极度抽象的思维的能力非常有限。修饰加到这个样子就可以了。
总之，翻译备考过程中，一定要多动手自己翻，翻译的时候，切记先看句子的结构，找到句子主干，然后再处理各从句及其修饰关系，最后添上修饰成分。
考研英语翻译的句子又长又复杂，宾语从句里套了一个定语从句，定语从句里又套了个表语从句，句子里再搞个倒装，这把辛酸泪咱先不说了。那么大家知道考研英语句子插入结构如何翻译呢？下面来看看！
一.什么是插入结构?
通常插在主谓之间，对句子做出附加说明的结构，即为插入结构。
例如：学习英语很很重要。
译文：Learning English is exceedingly essential.
再看这个例句：Learning English, to my knowledge, is exceedingly essential.
to my knowledge表示“据我所知”，就是这个句子中的插入结构。
二、插入结构的位置
可放在句首、句中或句末。一般用逗号或分号隔开。
三、插入结构的常见表现形式
1.形容词、副词作插入结构
2.形容词短语作插入结构
3.介词短语作插入结构
4.不定式短语作插入结构
5.分词短语作插入结构
6.主谓结构作插入结构
7.句子作插入结构
请看下列例句：
1.He was luckier, however, because he was only slightly wounded.
然而，他更幸运些，因为他只是受了点轻伤。(副词作插入结构)
2.Strange enough, he doesn’t know that famous writer.
奇怪的是，他竟然不知道那位著名的作家。(形容词~)
3.Where do you want to go, by the way?
顺便问一句，你想要去哪?(介词短语~)
4.She wrote, to be exact, ten novels in her lifetime.
确切地说，她一生写了10部小说。(不定式短语~)
5.Generally speaking, she’s not quite fit for this kind of work.
总的来说，她不太适合这种工作(分词短语~)
6.Honesty, I believe, is her virtue.
我认为，诚实是她的美德。(主谓结构~)
7.He is what we call a walking dictionary.
他就是所谓的活字典。(句子~)
现在童鞋们对插入结构应该有了一定的了解了，现在再次敲黑板，插入结构的翻译技巧为两种处理方法。童鞋们可根据语境，自行选择。因为在汉语中，插入语或在句首或在句中可能都符合表达习惯。因此我们的翻译口诀就是：顺译或前置!
顺译，即句中的插入结构常常可以按照其在句子中的位置原顺序直译，就可以了。
前置，即将整个插入结构译到整个句子之前。
童鞋们来看以下两个考研真题，来体会一番。
74题：But that, Pearson points out, is only the start of man-machine integration: “It will be the beginning of the long process of integration that will ultimately lead to a fully electronic human before the end of the next century.“
参考译文：但是皮尔森指出，这个突破仅仅是人机一体化的一个开始：“它将是人机一体化漫长之路的第一步,最终会在下世纪末之前就会出现完全的电子人.(前置法)
65题：Whorf came to believe in a sort of linguistic determinism which, in its strongest form, states that language imprisons the mind, and that the grammatical patterns in a language can produce far-reaching consequences for the culture of a society.
参考译文：沃尔夫进而相信某种类似语言决定论的观点;这种观点的极端说法是：语言禁锢了思维，语言的语法结构能对一个社会的文化产生深远的影响。(顺译法)
插入结构在考研英语翻译中比比皆是，童鞋们在学习备考的过程中，一方面需要扎实地积累英语中的各种插入结构，另一方面要多多联系学到的翻译方法和技巧，翻译绝对是孰能生巧的活儿哦!插入结构看似扰乱了句子结构，其实都是迷魂阵。

考研英语翻译 长句多结构复杂
从历年考生答题的情况看，英译汉部分得分几乎每年都是3-4分。英译汉之所以难，究其原因是英语和汉语之间的差异太大。既有语言表达方式方面的不同，又有思维逻辑以及文化习俗等方面的不同。这些都造成了理解和表达上的重重困难。英译汉的难点在试题中主要反映在以下几个方面：
1.依赖上下文理解单词和句子。
英语词汇一个词语有很多的词性以及一个词语有很多的意思。因此，词义对上下文的依赖性。因此考生必须十分谨慎，对原文的词义做深入细致的分析，根据语境确定词性和词义。
举个例子：concern这个单词既可以做名词也可以做动词。这就要根据语境去判断。
2.抽象名词偏多
抽象名词是表达抽象概念的名词，它的翻译是非常复杂的问题，需要上下文来确定其汉语意思。翻译时，我们遵循的原则就是把抽象名词转化成具体名词。有时要增词翻译或者改换说法。比如unemployment这类抽象名词。可以翻译为“失业现象”。
3.后置定语长
英语句子的中心词很多受修饰语修饰，最常见的是定语。前置定语一般是由单词充当，较为简单，考生也易掌握。而后置定语则有短语或句子充当。由于后置定语在汉语中是没有的，所以称为了英译汉的又一大考点。
4.长难句多
英译汉试题的划线部分共约150词，平均一句30词，且结构复杂，内容抽象，都是典型的长难句。英语长句主要长在修饰成分上，这些修饰成分可能是词、短语或从句。从句套从句。希望广大考生注意。
近些年，考研英语中翻译的考查更侧重于考生综合运用语言的能力。近些年，考研英语中翻译的考查更侧重于考生综合运用语言的.能力，按照考研英语大纲的要求，考生需要准确理解结构较复杂的英语文字材料。
句子结构是英语大厦的支柱，学会分析句子结构是学好英语的必要前提。英文是一种结构严谨的形合性语言，大部分的英文正式材料基本上是用复杂长句写成的。语法在平时的复习中，也是基础。语法的掌握是为分析句子，从而对原句结构进行精确的拆分服务的。熟练的掌握语法，是准确的翻译句子的前提之一。意群的整体翻译必须掌握重要语法得分点的翻译规律和技巧。众语法中，考生应该重视定语和定语从句，以及定语从句中限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句的位置处理、分词和介词短语作后置定语的翻译、状语的翻译定位和顺序、名词性从句的翻译。被动语态、虚拟语气和倒装结构的翻译为关键得分点。同时，能够正确处理否定结构、并列结构的译文句式选择。
经过一段时间的复习备考之后，考生接触过大量的英文材料，具备了一定的词汇和语法知识，许多单词看起来都很面熟，但事实上离真正掌握和熟练运用的差距还很大。因此，虽然说心里明白，其实只是认识英文，并没有完全读懂原文的意义。另一方面，由于考生平时缺乏翻译练习和实践，缺乏对英汉两种语言差异性的认识，往往“只见英文不见中文”或者“只见中文不见英文”，缺乏必要的翻译知识和技巧，所以就会有写不出来的感觉。建议这类考生，认真理解、深入学习已经熟悉的词汇和语法知识，多注意英汉表达方式的差异，掌握一些英汉两种语言相互转化的基本方法和技巧，加强翻译实践练习，以进一步提高理解英文和表达译文的能力。

Shakespeare’s life time was coincident with a period of extraordinary activity and achievement in the drama. By the date of his birth Europe was witnessing the passing of the religious drama, and the creation of new forms under the incentive of classical tragedy and comedy. These new forms were at first mainly written by scholars and performed by amateurs, but in England, as everywhere else in western Europe, the growth of a class of professional actors was threatening to make the drama popular, whether it should be new or old, classical or medieval, literary or farcical. Court, school organizations of amateurs, and the traveling actors were all rivals in supplying a widespread desire for dramatic entertainment; and (47) no boy who went a grammar school could be ignorant that the drama was a form of literature which gave glory to Greece and Rome and might yet bring honor to England.
When Shakespeare was twelve years old, the first public playhouse was built in London. For a time literature showed no interest in this public stage. Plays aiming at literary distinction were written for school or court, or for the choir boys of St. Paul’s and the royal chapel, who, however, gave plays in public as well as at court.(48)but the professional companies prospered in their permanent theaters, and university men with literature ambitions were quick to turn to these theaters as offering a means of livelihood. By the time Shakespeare was twenty-five, Lyly, Peele, and Greene had made comedies that were at once popular and literary; Kyd had written a tragedy that crowded the pit; and Marlowe had brought poetry and genius to triumph on the common stage - where they had played no part since the death of Euripides. (49)A native literary drama had been created, its alliance with the public playhouses established, and at least some of its great traditions had been begun.
The development of the Elizabethan drama for the next twenty-five years is of exceptional interest to students of literary history, for in this brief period we may trace the beginning, growth, blossoming, and decay of many kinds of plays, and of many great careers. We are amazed today at the mere number of plays produced, as well as by the number of dramatists writing at the same time for this London of two hundred thousand inhabitants. (50)To realize how great was the dramatic activity, we must remember further that hosts of plays have been lost, and that probably there is no author of note whose entire work has survived.

Within the span of a hundred years, in the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, a tide of emigration-one the great folk wanderings of history-swept from Europe to America. (46) This movement, driven by powerful and diverse motivations, built a nation out of a wilderness and, by its nature, shaped the character and destiny of an uncharted continent.
(47) The United States is the product of two principal forces-the immigration of European peoples with their varied ideas,customs and national characteristics and the impact of a new country which modified these traits. Of necessity, colonial America was a projection of Europe. Across the Atlantic came successive groups of Englishmen, Frenchmen, Germans, Scots, Irishmen, Dutchmen, Swedes, and many others who attempted to transplant their habits and traditions to the new world. (48) But the force of geographic conditions peculiar to America, the interplay of the varied national groups upon one another, and the sheer difficulty of maintaining old-world ways in a raw, new continent caused significant changes. These changes were gradual and at first scarcely visible. But the result was a new social pattern which, although it resembled European society in many ways, had a character that was distinctly American.
(49) The first shiploads of immigrants bound for the territory which is now the United States crossed the Atlantic more than a hundred years after the 15th-and-16th-century explorations of North America. In the meantime, thriving Spanish colonies had been established in Mexico, the West Indies, and South America. These travelers to North America came in small, unmercifully overcrowded craft. During their six-to twelve-week voyage, they survived on barely enough food allotted to them. Many of the ships were lost in storms, many passengers died of disease, and infants rarely survived the journey. Sometimes storms blew the vessels far off their course, and often calm brought unbearably long delay.
To the anxious travelers the sight of the American shore brought almost inexpressible relief. Said one recorder of events, ”The air at twelve leagues' distance smelt as sweet as a new-blown garden." Thecolonists' first glimpse of the new land was a sight of dense woods.(50)The virgin forest with its richness and variety of trees was a real treasure-house which extended from Maine all the way down to Georgia. Here was abundant fuel and lumber. Here was the raw material of houses and furniture, ships and potash, dyes and naval stores.

It is speculated that gardens arise from a basic need in the individuals who made them: the need for creative expression. There is no doubt that gardens evidence an impossible urge to create, express, fashion, and beautify and that self-expression is a basic human urge; (46) Yet when one looks at the photographs of the garden created by the homeless, it strikes one that , for all their diversity of styles, these gardens speak os various other fundamental urges, beyond that of decoration and creative expression.
One of these urges had to do with creating a state of peace in the midst of turbulence, a “still point of the turning world,” to borrow a phrase from T. S. Eliot. (47)A sacred place of peace, however crude it may be, is a distinctly human need, as opposed to shelter, which is a distinctly animal need. This distinction is so much so that where the latter is lacking, as it is for these unlikely gardens, the foemer becomes all the more urgent. Composure is a state of mind made possible by the structuring of one’s relation to one’s environment. (48) The gardens of the homeless which are in effect homeless gardens introduce from into an urban environment where it either didn’t exist or was not discernible as such. In so doing they give composure to a segment of the inarticulate environment in which they take their stand.
Another urge or need that these gardens appear to respond to, or to arise from is so intrinsic that we are barely ever conscious of its abiding claims on us. When we are deprived of green, of plants, of trees, (49)most of us give into a demoralization of spirit which we usually blame on some psychological conditions, until one day we find ourselves in garden and feel the expression vanish as if by magic. In most of the homeless gardens of New York City the actual cultivation of plants is unfeasible, yet even so the compositions often seem to represent attempts to call arrangement of materials, an institution of colors, small pool of water, and a frequent presence of petals or leaves as well as of stuffed animals. On display here are various fantasy elements whose reference, at some basic level, seems to be the natural world. (50)It is this implicit or explicit reference to nature that fully justifies the use of word garden though in a “liberated” sense, to describe these synthetic constructions. In them we can see biophilia- a yearning for contact with nonhuman life-assuming uncanny representational forms.

Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written on the ANSWER SHEET(10 points)
Music means different things to different people and sometimes even different things to the same person at different moments of his life. It might be poetic, philosophical, sensual, or mathematical, but in any case it must, in my view, have something to do with the soul of the human being. Hence it is metaphysical; but the means of expression is purely and exclusively physical: sound. I believe it is precisely this permanent coexistence of metaphysical message through physical means that is the strength of music.46) It is also the reason why when we try to describe music with words, all we can do is articulate our reactions to it, and not grasp music itself.
Beethoven’s importance in music has been principally defined by the revolutionary nature of his compositions. He freed music from hitherto prevailing conventions of harmony and structure. Sometimes I feel in his late works a will to break all signs of continuity. The music is abrupt and seemingly disconnected, as in the last piano sonata. In musical expression, he did not feel restrained by the weight of convention. 47) By all accounts he was a freethinking person, and a courageous one, and I find courage an essential quality for the understanding, let alone the performance, of his works.
This courageous attitude in fact becomes a requirement for the performers of Beethoven’s music. His compositions demand the performer to show courage, for example in the use of dynamics. 48) Beethoven’s habit of increasing the volume with an extreme intensity and then abruptly following it with a sudden soft passage was only rarely used by composers before him.
Beethoven was a deeply political man in the broadest sense of the word. He was not interested in daily politics, but concerned with questions of moral behavior and the larger questions of right and wrong affecting the entire society.49) Especially significant was his view of freedom, which, for him, was associated with the rights and responsibilities of the individual: he advocated freedom of thought and of personal expression.
Beethoven’s music tends to move from chaos to order as if order were an imperative of human existence. For him, order does not result from forgetting or ignoring the disorders that plague our existence; order is a necessary development, an improvement that may lead to the Greek ideal of spiritual elevation. It is not by chance that the Funeral March is not the last movement of the Eroica Symphony, but the second, so that suffering does not have the last word. 50) One could interpret much of the work of Beethoven by saying that suffering is inevitable, but the courage to fight it renders life worth living.
翻译高分复习突破考研英语比较结构
比较结构是考研翻译中非常重要的考点之一，比较结构包括以下两种类型：①当要表达的事物之间在某一方面一样时，可用 as…as…(后接形容词或副词，as much / many…as…(后接名词或动词)结构，no less...than (=not any less...than...)...，no more...than (=not any more...than...)...。②表达事物之间差别的结构可采用 more (…than) 或 less (…than)，后可接形容词、副词、动词或名词。但要注意的是 more…than 还可译作“与其说……，不如说……” 实际上，英语的比较结构比较复杂，翻译时应注意英汉两种语言在表达上的差异。处理时应先识别比较结构，然后判断比较对象。
【真题例句1】
There is more agreement on the kinds of behavior referred to by the term than there is on how to interpret or classify them.
【解析】
这是一个典型的than引导的比较结构。如若按照字面来译：“有更多的一致意见在这个词所指的不同表现方面，较少的一致意见对这些表现如何解释或分类”，译文显得生硬，我们需要转译。
【参考译文】
:译文1：对(智力)这个词所指的不同表现人们意见比较一致，而对这些表现如何解释或分类则有不同看法。
译文2：人们对(智力)所指的不同表现，比对这些表现如何进行解释或分类，看法更为一致。
【真题例句2】
For the women of my generation who were urged to keep juggling through the 80’s, downshifting in the mid-90s is not so much a search for he mythical good life―growing your own organic vegetables, and risking turning into one―as a personal recognition of your limitations.结构分析：
【解析】
这句话的平行结构是两个名词短语：a search for he mythical good life―growing your own organic vegetables, and risking turning into one和a personal recognition of your limitations. 本句主干由not so much…as…固定搭配连接构成的一个长句，其准确的'翻译应为“与其……不如……”，而这种翻译成中文之后通常让人产生理解上的障碍。这种搭配出现在客观试题的阅读文章中，通常可以直接把它理解成“不是……而是……”。
【参考译文】
对于我们这一代曾在整个80年代为生活奔波的女性来说, 90年代中期过着放慢生活节奏的生活，与其说是追求神话般的美好生活――自已种有机蔬菜，冒着变得毫无生机的危险――倒不如说我们都认识到了自己的局限。
【真题例句3】
The ideal listener stays both inside and outside the music at the moment it is played and enjoys it almost as much as the composer does at the moment he composes.
【解析】
The ideal listener... enjoys it almost as much as the composer at the moment he composes 中does 代替enjoys，表示对音乐的“欣赏”。这里as much as 同样表示同等程度。
【参考译文】
一个真正懂得音乐的听众，应该是在听音乐时既置身于音乐其中，又可游离于音乐之外，他对音乐的欣赏程度，几乎等同于作曲家本人在创作该曲时的欣赏程度。
