在中高级口考试的汉英翻译部分中,大多数考生都会遇到的一个问题:想要把译文做到精彩,可惜巧妇难为无米之炊。为了帮助大家尽快解决这一难题,本次发布汉译英高频“滥词”替换方案II,希望给朋友们在备考中带来帮助。

  要翻促进发展,一律promote development;要翻许多,通通many。诸如此类的词汇,被笔者称之为“滥词”,即被用到泛滥的词汇。

  如果是追求反应速度和效率的口译部分,这样的译文当然没有问题。可是在时间充裕的笔译部分,这样的简单词汇无疑会令译文质量打上折扣。至少,无法让阅卷人眼前一亮,难获高分。

  出于对以上问题的考虑,通过多年的口译教研经历,总结了中高级口译考试汉英翻译题中出现频率最高的30个常用单词/词组的替换方案,以期帮助同学在短时间内积累一定的亮点词汇。

  需要提醒同学们注意的有两点。一是各个亮点词汇绝不是被替换词的同义词,不可胡乱使用,其具体用法请自行查阅词典。如waste的替换词中,squander是动词,luxurious是形容词,用法完全不同。二是建议同学在此基础上继续自行积累,多多益善,方能在考场上厚积薄发。
