1、第十七讲 应用文体翻译教学步骤:一、应用文体翻译概论二、应用文体翻译的共同原则与方法三、应用文体翻译实践四、美文翻译练习与赏析 A Smile 一、概论(一)应用文体的概念 应用文体是国家机关、企业、事业单位、社会团体、人民群众用于工作、学习、生活等方面,直接为现实生活服务,具有实用价值、惯用格式的一类文章的总称。应用性文体是所有实用性写作的一个总称,其范围很广,包括书信、公函、合同、协议、通知、电报、演讲、公证书、说明书、单据、产品说明书、操作指南或手册等。(二)应用文体的分类(1)(1)公文类公文类如:命令、批复、指示、报告等。(2)(2)工作文书类工作文书类如:计划、总结、章程、制度等。
2、(3)(3)法律文书类法律文书类如:笔录、立案报告、鉴定书,起诉书,调解书,判决书以及各种诉状等。(4)(4)经济文书类经济文书类如:财务报告、市场调查、招投标书、合同,以及财税、工商、审计、地产等部门的各种业务文书等等。(5)(5)条据文书类条据文书类如:请假条、留言条、借据、收条欠条、领条、便条、托事条、催托条、馈赠条等。(6)(6)书信文书类书信文书类如:一般书信、情书和表扬信、推荐信、慰问信、邀请信、感谢信、求职信、咨询信、介绍信、证明信、申请书、聘书、履历、说明书、报捷书、保证书、倡议书、建议书、悔过书等专用书信。(7)(7)礼仪文书类礼仪文书类如:祝词、贺信、请柬、欢迎词、欢送词、

29、king hands,I could barely get it to my lips.But I had no matches,they had taken those.I looked through the bars at my jailer.He did not make eye contact with me.I called out to him:Have you got a light?He looked at me,shrugged 3and came over to light my cigarette.As he came close and lit the match,h
30、is eyes inadvertently locked with mine.At that moment,I smiled.Perhaps it was nervousness,perhaps it was because,when you get very close,one to another,it is very hard not to smile.In any case,I smiled.In thatinstant,it was as though a spark jumped across the gap between our two hearts,our two human
31、 souls.I know he didnt want to,but my smile leaped through the bars and generated a smile on his lips,too.He lit my cigarette but stayed near,looking at me directly in the eyes and continuing to smile.微 笑一想到自己明天就没命了,不禁陷入极端的惶恐。我翻遍了口袋,终于找到一支没被他们搜走的香烟,但我的手紧张得不停发抖,连将烟送进嘴里都成问题,而我的火柴也在搜身时被拿走了。“我透过铁栏望着外面的警
32、卫,他并没有注意到我在看他,我叫了他一声:“能跟你借个火吗?”他转头望着我,耸了耸肩,然后走了过来,点燃我的香烟。当他帮我点火时,他的眼光无意中与我的相遇,这时我突然冲着他微笑。我不知道自己为何有这般反应,也许是过于紧张,或者是当你如此靠近另一个人,你很难不对他微笑。不管是何理由,我对他笑了。就在这一刹那,这抹微笑如同火花般,打破了我们心灵间的隔阂。受到了我的感染,他的嘴角不自觉地也现出了笑容,虽然我知道他原无此意。他点完火后并没立刻离开,两眼盯着我瞧,脸上仍带着微笑。I kept smiling at him,now aware of him as a person andnot just
33、a jailer.And his looking at me seemed to have a new dimension4 too.Do you have kids?he asked.Yes,here,here.I took out my wallet and nervously fumbled for the pictures of my family.He,too,took out the pictures of his family and began to talk about his plans and hopes for them.My eyes filled with tear
34、s.I said that I feared that Id never see my family again,neverhave the chance to see them grow up.Tears came to his eyes,too.Suddenly,without another word,he unlocked my cell and silently led me out.Out of the jail,quietly and by back routes,out of the town.There,at the edge of town,he released me.A
35、nd without another word,he turned back toward the town.我也以笑容回应,仿佛他是个朋友,而不是个守着我的警卫。他看着我的眼神也少了当初的那股凶气,“你有小孩吗?”他开口问道。“有,你看。”我拿出了皮夹,手忙脚乱地翻出了我的全家福照片。他也掏出了照片,并且开始讲述他对家人的期望与计划。这时我眼中充满了泪水,我说我害怕再也见不到家人。我害怕没机会看着孩子长大。他听了也流下两行眼泪。突然间,他二话不说地打开了牢门,悄悄地带我从后面的小路逃离了监狱,出了小镇,就在小镇的边上,他放了我,之后便转身往回走,不曾留下一句话。My life was sav
36、ed by a smile.Yes,the smile-the unaffected,unplanned,natural connection between people.I really believe that if that part of you and that part of me could recognize each other,we wouldnt be enemies.We couldnt have hate or envy or fear.“一个微笑居然能救自己一条命。”是的,微笑是人与人之间最自然真挚的沟通方式。如果我们能用心灵去认识彼此,世间不会有结怨成仇的憾事;恨意、妒嫉、恐惧也会不复存在。背景介绍:微笑是法国作家安东尼圣艾修伯里的作品,圣艾修伯里是名飞行员,二次大战对抗纳粹时被击落身亡,之前他也曾参加西班牙内战打击法西斯分子。他根据这次经验写了一篇精彩的故事微笑。他的代表作小王子是美国人都很熟悉的童话故事。THE ENDTHANK YOUSUCCESS2024/5/8 周三55可编辑
