• To many Chinese, Guangdong Province was in the past a peculiar, mysterious place due to its close proximity（接近） to Hong Kong and Macao. In 1949, when the Chinese Communist Party assumed power in China, Hong Kong maintained a completely different political system and ideology, despite being geographically a part of the mainland. Guangdong, therefore, became the window through which Chinese and foreigners kept an eye on one another.
段落的翻译
• 段落翻译中，除了考虑正确、地道的译出 各句外，还要考虑段落主题性。 • 另外，注意汉英差别。汉语的一个段落可 能包含几个句群，也就是几个主题，而英 文的段落基本只有一个主题。 • 第一步找出句群，及句群的中心，再确定 段落的中心，以及结构方式。

• 历史证明，在科学发展的进程中，一些接触任务个人的 作用不可忽视。接触的科学家，既为人类物质文明作出 贡献，也以自己高尚的道德情操，为人类的精神文明留 下宝贵的财富。爱因斯坦在评介居里夫人时说过，第一 流人物对于时代的历史进程的意义，尤其是在道德品质 方面，也许比单纯的才智成就方面还要大。中国科学院 院士是国家设立的科学技术方面的最高学术称号，具有 崇高的荣誉和学术上的权威性。老一辈院士大多是我国 现代科学技术的开拓者和新中国科技事业的奠基人。他 们不仅通过自身的研究成果，而且通过其在科学界的活 动而影响他人，甚至一个学科领域。院士们的品德、学 风和献身精神在科学界堪称楷模，受到社会各界的尊重。 青年摄影家侯艺兵，历经3年寻踪采访了1980年以前当 心的291位院士，为他们留影写真；同时，征集院士亲 笔题写的他们所喜欢的一句或一段人生格言，汇编成这 本大型肖像、手迹画册献给读者，做了一件很有意玉磕着瓜子儿，只管抿着嘴笑。可巧黛 玉的丫鬟雪雁来给黛玉送小手炉。 • Daiyu had been smiling rather cryptically as she cracked melon-seeds.

句群与段落的翻译
• 句群，一群句子的组合，大于句子，小于 段落。句群与复句的最大区别就是就是句 群一般没有配对标志，如“因为……所 以……”等关联词。 • 句群的翻译操作强调“超句意识”，要找 出句群间句子之间的关系，确定句群的中 心思想。
原词复现VS人称替代
• 蚯蚓是一种有益的动物。在地面上它是其 他动物的食物。在地下，它为田园和花园 制造肥沃的土壤。 • The earthworm is a useful animal. On the ground it is food for other animals. Under the ground, it makes rich soil for fields and gardens.
理清逻辑关系，增加关联词
• 广东对于大多数中国人来 说曾经是一个特殊并充满 神秘感的省份。这多半由 于它毗邻香港和澳门的缘 故。自从中国共产党在 1949年建立政权后，香港 成为地理上距中国大陆最 近而政治制度及意识形态 与大陆大相径庭的一个区 域。广东因此而成为一个 窗口，刺激并满足着中国 人和外国人相互间对“异 端”的好奇心。
