专八口语考试真题讲评.doc

英语专业八级口试口译真题评析（以2009年、2010年真题为例）专八口译虽然是量化计分，但是参考答案往往不是唯一的，只要是在可以接受范围内都给分的。例如：2009年英译中的第一个句子Together with my colleagues from Changan and Ford, I want to thank you for joining us during the inauguration of the most advanced automotive manufacturing plant in China.其中the inauguration of .plant既可以译成“竣工投产仪式”，也可以译成“建成仪式”、“正式启用”、“启用典礼”等等都算对。由于口译的灵活度比较大，即便是不在给定的可接受参考答案内的，经验丰富的评分老师也可以根据情况酌情给分。所以不用担心误判的问题。关于评分的有效性问题，实际上每位同学的录音至少有两位老师评分。如果两位老师评分接近，那么评分有效，否则请第三位老师评分。下面通过2009年英译中真题讲解，分析一下同学们口译中出现的常见问题以及这两年真题的参考译文。【真题示例】2009年英译中：l . Together with my colleagues from Changan and Ford, I want to thank you for joining us during the inauguration of the most advanced automotive manufacturing plant in China.问题：1）这句话的前半句有部分学校录音没录上，同学白白丢了2分。2）inauguration这个词有些同学没反应过来，还有些硬译成“就职仪式”。参考译文：与长安和福特的同事们一起，我感谢你们参加中国最先进的汽车制造厂竣工投产仪式。2. In just four short years, Changan Ford Automobile has made phenomenal progress in delivering great market success. This is a result of the shared vision and determination of the partners.问题：1）phenomenal和vision这两个词同学们看见会懂，可是听到后却有些吃不准。2）delivering great market success同学们平时大都熟悉achieving success，对译文中的动宾搭配不熟。参考译文：短短四年时间，长安福特汽车在市场营销方面取得巨大进步。这归功于合作双方的共识和决心。3. The worlds first automobile assembly line began operation at Fords plant over 106 years ago. And what a journey it has been since thenbringing us all the way here to celebrate this milestone today.问题：1）数字错。2）第一条汽车生产线误译成“第一辆汽车”。3）庆祝这个里程碑式的成果误译成“纪念”。参考译文：106年前，世界上第一条汽车生产线在福特工厂开始运行。此后，经历漫长历程发展到今天的规模，今天让我们庆祝这个里程碑式的成果。完整讲解请观看四八级在线视频讲座【真题示例】2009年中译英：1 世界城市论坛是联合国三大论坛之一，重点关注世界城市发展动态及其对经济、社会发展的影响。参考译文：World Urban Forum, one of the three major forums of the United Nations, focuses on urban development and its impact on economic and social growth.2 “和谐的城市化”不仅包括社会、经济、环境的协调发展，也包括了城与乡、以及不同社会阶层之间的和谐共融。参考译文：Harmonious urbanization includes not only the coordinated development of society, economy and environment, but also the harmony between urban and rural areas, between different social classes.3 目前，我省城市化处于快速发展阶段，到2007年底，全省城镇人口达到4056万，城市化水平约53%。参考译文：At present, urbanization in our province develops at fast pace,;by the end of 2007, urban population has reached 40.56 million, accounting for 53% of the total population.【真题示例】2010年英译中1.
