2013考研英语辅导让步状语从句翻译方法
一、译成表示让步的分句,如虽然…但是…,尽管…等。 Although humans are the most intelligent creature on earth,anything humans can do, Nature has already done better and in far, far less space. 分析:although引导的让步状语从句译成虽然…但…。 参考译文:虽然人类是地球上最聪明的生物,人能创造一切,但大自然更富于创造性,早已创造出比人类创造的更好更小巧的东西。 二、译成条件句 由no matter引导的从句可以译为以不论,不管,无论等做关联词的条件分句。例如: No matter how carefully you move your hand toward a fly, the insect will dart off almost every time. 参考译文:不管你多么小心翼翼地把手伸向一只苍蝇,差不多每次它都飞走。 |
