2.时态。英译汉时,常需借助着、了、过等助词和时间副词来表达原句的时态。请看例句:
There will be television chat shows hosted by robots, ...
翻译本句,需添加届时一词来表达原文的将来时态。再请看:
But even more..., for what they were seeing were the patterns and structures that existed 15 billion years ago.
本句官方给出的参考译文是:因为他们看到的是150亿年前宇宙云的形状和结构。我认为,这个译文翻译的实际上是for what they saw而不是for what they were seeing,换言之,它不足以表达一般过去时和过去进行时的区别。
再请看:
...and digital age will have arrived.
有考生将其翻译成数字时代将会来到,体现的是一般将来时而不是将来完成时。
3.词的单复数,大小写等细节问题。请看例句:
Whether the Government should...
官方给出的参考译文将the Government简单译成政府,不确切。定冠词the以及government首字母大写这两点明显表明此处的government是特指。本句前一句为Federal policy is necessarily involved in the technology vs. genius dispute,可以确定,the Government指的是联邦政府。
