2017年翻譯考試catti三級筆譯練習題（1）
【英譯漢】
Shanghai is a dynamic, diverse and stimulating city - the very epitome of modern China. Though Shanghai cannot rival Beijing in cultural heritage, its varied architectural styles and cosmopolitan feel give it a charm of its own. Today's Shanghai has become a world-famous international metropolis. A walk through this booming city reveals many glimpses of its colorful past. Hidden amongst the skyscrapers are remains of the original Shanghai. They keep on showing how Shanghai has been developing fast and enormously since its opening as a commercial port in the late 19th century, especially after the founding of new China.
【參考譯文】
朝氣蓬勃，充滿活力，豐富多彩的上海是現(xiàn)代中國的縮影。雖然上海的文化遺跡不能與北京媲美，但是上海迷人的城市風貌，風格各異的萬國建筑為這座城市注入了無限的魅力。今日之上海，已經(jīng)成為享譽中外的國際大都市。漫步在這座日新月異的現(xiàn)代大都市里，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)許多精彩的歷史亮點，隱現(xiàn)在眾多摩天大樓背后的是上海發(fā)展變化的軌跡。它們記述了上海自十九世紀末開埠以來，尤其是新中國成立以后，是如何迅猛發(fā)展的。
【漢譯英】
我贊同許多東亞學者的觀點，東方文明可以醫(yī)治盛行于西方世界的一些頑疾。西方世界個人自由主義泛濫導致了極端個人主義、性關(guān)系混亂以及過度暴力行為，對此我們不能視而不見。相反，東方社會的自我約束力，集體責任感以及溫厚儒雅的傳統(tǒng)倒可以消除西方社會的許多惡疾。在這個信息時代，世界已縮小成一個地球村。這個地球村里，不再有什么涇渭分明的東方世界和西方世界，我們是生活在同一個社區(qū)里的鄰里。因此，我們彼此之間無須沖突。我們之間的關(guān)系應該是一種友好合作，平等互補的關(guān)系。我們應該相互理解，相互學習，和睦共處。
【參考譯文】
I share the same view with many East Asian scholars that the Oriental civilization can heal some of the prevailing ,stubborn Western ills. We should not turn a blind eye to the fact that individual freedom has gone overboard in the West, resulting in extreme individualism , sexual promiscuity and excessive use of violence.// By contrast , self-discipline, corporate responsibility and the pacific tradition of East Asiacan off set many Western vices.// At this age of information, the world has shrunk as a global village in which there will be no clear-cut worlds of the East and the West any more, but a world of one community with neighboring families.// Therefore ,we do not necessarily have to come into clash with each other. Our relationship is one of friendly cooperation, equality and mutual complementarity and therefore, we should understand and learn from each other, and live in harmony.//
