2017下半年翻譯考試中級(jí)口譯模擬試題（44）

　　【中譯英】

　　說起上海老城，總會(huì)讓人和古老傳統(tǒng)的東西聯(lián)系起來，比如明代的豫園和清代的城隍廟。上海建城有700多年歷史，但最具人文發(fā)展歷史的時(shí)期是開埠后的150年間，諸如華洋雜居、石庫門、老字號(hào)等等，都發(fā)生在開埠后的上海。

　　流傳于老城內(nèi)外的民間文化，豐富多彩。著名的“上海老城人物風(fēng)情畫卷”生動(dòng)地描繪了上海老城市民的生活百態(tài)。上海老城市歷史文明與現(xiàn)代文明的兼容并蓄，無論上海城市發(fā)展如何日新月異，她仍將記錄著上海城市發(fā)展的歷史華章。

　　【參考譯文】

　　The old town of Shanghai, when it is mentioned, is always associated with the past and the tradition, something such as the Yuyuan Garden in the Ming Dynasty and the Town God’s Temple (or the City God Temple / Chenghuangmiao) in the Qing Dynasty. Despite a history of more than 700 years, it is the 150 years since its opening to foreign trades that enjoyed the most spelendid/ greatest humane development of Shanghai. During that period, scenes appeared such as the co-inhabitation of Chinese foreigners, the building of Shikumen, and the growth of time-honored firms.

　　Various and colorful folk cultures have gained popularity in and out of Shanghai’s old town, which has been proved in the famous “The Painting Scroll of Local Residents in Shanghai’s Old Town”, a vivid depiction of the lives of local residents in every aspect. Despite the ever-changing advances of Shanghai, its old town, an inclusive combination of ancient and modern civilization, will still serve as a glorious chapter in the history of the development of Shanghai city.
