clauses,第21页,一、定语从句翻译,定语从句分两种：限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句。从功效上看，还有一类定语从句兼具状语性质。,定语从句有长有短，对先行词限制有强有弱，翻译时，必须视上下文灵活处理，兼顾原文表层结构和深层结构。较短定语从句，可从语法角度着手，分析其表层结构：长而复杂定语从句，可参考一下六个步骤，以求得队员句彻底透彻了解，为顺畅地表示铺平道路。这六个步骤是：紧缩主干,-,区分主从,-,辨析词义,-,分清层次,-,调整搭配,-,润饰词语（与长句翻译类似）。定语从句常可译为：定语结构、并列结构、谓语结构、宾语结构、独立句、简单句、状语结构等。,第22页,（一）译为定语结构,较短定语从句比较轻易了解与其它成份之间层次关系，翻译时，可将从句译为定语结构或“”字结构，直接放在被修饰词前面。只要句子较短，不论是限制性定语从句，还是非限制性定语从句，都能够采取这种方法。,A crane can be defined as,machine,which lifts heavy pads and displaces them horizontally.,起重机可定义为举起重载，并使其水平位移,机械,。,Congress made public a survey of human rights in 105 countries,that received U.S.aid,.,国会公布了关于接收美国援助,105,个国家人权情况调查汇报。,The sun,which had hidden all day,now came out in all its splendor.,那个整天躲在云朵里太阳，现在又光芒四射地露面了。,If one object is changed with the same kind of electricity,as appears on another near by,the two objects will repel each other.,假如一个物体带有与它邻近物体上所出现同类电荷，这两个物体会相互排斥。,第23页,（二）译为并列结构,有些定语从句与主语关联不太紧密，或意思比较独立，在逻辑上有追述、描写、转折等作用，如前置用定语形式表示则不符合汉语习惯，这时，普通把定语从句译为前置或后置并列结构。翻译非限制性定语从句，这种方法愈加惯用。,Archimedes principle applies to liquids,by which we mean all liquids and gases,.,阿基米德定律适合用于一切流体，这里所谓流体指是一切流体和气体。,At dinner I found myself placed between Mrs.Bradley and a shy drab girl,who seemed even younger than the others.,席间我发觉我座位在布拉德雷太太和一位腼腆朴素姑娘之间，这位姑娘看起来比其余人还要年轻。,See Fig.19,where the plate lies on three rest buttons.,见图,19,，图中平板放在三个定位钮上。,第24页,Isabel was a tall girl the oval face,straight nose,fine eyes and

naturally you find her a sylph.,你们英国女人天天狼吞虎咽地吃上三餐到五餐肉食，你们拿娜拉来比她们，当然以为她（娜拉）是个窈窕仙女了,第25页,（三）译为谓语结构,将原主语主谓结构压缩成汉语词组作译文状语，把定语从句转译为谓语，合并成一个句子。,“,We are nation,that must beg to stay alive,”said a foreign economit.,一位外国经济学家说道“我们这个国家不讨饭就活不下去”,She had a balance at her bankers,which would have made her,beloved,anywhere.,她在银行存款，,足以使她处处受到欢迎,第26页,There are events taking place at this time,which dim their hopes and lessen the prospects.,当前正在发生事件使他们感到希望渺茫，前途暗淡,Sir Huddleston Fuddleston had three daughters who all hope to be Lady Crawley.,赫特尔顿,.,福特尔顿爵士三个女儿都想做克劳莱夫人。,第27页,（四）译为独立句,因为非限制性定语从句与主句关系比较涣散，所以很多情况下能够转译为独立句子，关系代词只作为普通代词，从句也变为句子主体。,Once was a violent thunderstorm,the worst I had ever seen,which obscured my objective.,这一次暴风骤雨，猛烈程度实为我平生所仅见。这暴风雨遮住了我目标。,He had talked to Vice-President Nixon,who assured him that everything that could be done would be done.,他和副总统尼克松谈过话，副总统向他担保，凡是能够做到都会竭尽全力去做,第28页,（五）译为简单句,限定性定语从句与主语关系比较亲密，所以可把主句和从句合并在一起，变成简单句。这类句子常含有,there be to be,等结构。,Is it history you are reading?,你们在读历史吗？,The oil tanker carries crude oil to a refinery where the oil is processed.,油罐将原油带到炼油厂加工。,There were,men in the crowd who had stood there every day for a month.,人群中有些人已经在那里站了一个月,第29页,（六）译成状语从句,这些从句形式上是定语从句，但在语法功效和深层含义上却起着状语从句作用，表示时间、地点、原因、结果、目标、让步、条件、假设等，翻译时必须慎重处理，以使译文准确而顺通地反应原义。,To make an atom bomb we have to use uranium235,in which all the atoms are available for fission,制造原子弹必须用铀,235,，因为它全部原子都可裂变（定语从句表原因）,We recognize the establish and develop institutions which help to tame the unbridled exercise of power.,我们认识到需要建立和发展一些机构以有利于控制滥用权力。（定语从句表目标）,第30页,The economy seems certain to worsen during the campaign,which will reflect on the incumbents.,在竞选期间，经济情况看来必定会走下坡路，这将对在职竞选者产生不利影响（定语从句表示结果）,Glass,whose

arbitrarily.,假如有些人勇于公然反抗世界公众舆论而一意孤行，他定是个鲁莽之徒。（定语从句表示假设）,第32页,二、状语从句翻译,状语从句种类很多，用来修饰谓语或其它动词，定语或状语，乃至整个句子。状语从句可用来表示时间、地点、原因、结果、目标、条件、行为方式、比较关系、让步等。,翻译状语从句包括主要为题就是语序问题。英汉两种语言思维方式和表示习惯不尽相同，英语方式、比较、结果等状语从句普通位于主句之后，其它状语从句位置则比较灵活。汉译时，应依据汉语表示习惯，比较和结果状语从句放在主句之后，方式状语从句可前可后，其它状语从句通常在主句之前,第33页,（一）状语从句前置,Where there is oppression,there is resistance.,哪里有压迫，哪里就有反抗（地点状语从句）,We can certainly overcome these difficulties so long as we are closely united.,只要我们紧密地团结起来，就一定能克服这些困难。（条件状语从句）,The piston completes a

on water.,气球浮在空气中，如同船浮在水上（方式状语从句）,第35页,（三）状语从句转译,有些状语从句能够按照原来语法形式译成汉语，不过有些状语从句要依据汉语习惯转译为其它语法形式。比如，时间状语从句转译为让步状语从句或条件状语从句，地点状语从句转译为条件状语从句等。翻译时应找出其中暗含逻辑关系，然后再译为汉语对应成份。忽略这一点，就可能破坏修饰效果。,第36页,But Eden did not behave like Dulles,where Dulles was receptive and Eden was bored.,课时，艾登做事跟杜勒斯不一样，杜勒斯还能听听被人话，而艾登对他人话连半句也听不进去。（地点状语从句转译为比较状语从句）,New things always have to experience difficulties and setbacks as they
