The Translation of “Multiples”英语中表示倍数增减或倍数对比的句型多种多样，它们是容易译错的难点之一。其主要原因在于英汉两种语言在表述

32、或对比倍数方面存在语言上与思维上的差异，汉语句式少，英语句式多。倍数的英汉表达在语言形式、逻辑意念和数值这三方法面完全吻合的对应句很少。 1）n times +形容词（或副词）比较级+than 是n倍/大n-1倍Asia is four times larger than Europe.误译：亚洲比欧洲大4倍。正译：亚洲比欧洲大3倍。/亚洲是欧洲的4倍。The volume of the earth is 49 times larger than that of the moon.地球的大小是月球的49倍。/地球比月球大48倍。2) n times + as + 形容词（或副词）原级+as 是

46、因为英汉语言在使用分数方面的差异（如汉语的分母中极少使用小数点），如果英语减少的倍数中有小数点时，则应换算成分数。根据表达习惯英语中的2.5times，汉语一般不说“二点五分之一”，这时应换算成整数分母，即“降低到五分之二”或“降低了五分之三”。9. “decrease (reduce，fall等）+ (by) n times” “decrease (reduce，fall等）+ n times as + a. (ad.) + as” “decrease (reduce，fall等）+ by a factor of n “减少到n分之1” 或“减加少了n分之（n1）”By using a ne

47、w process the prime cost of the television set was reduced by 3.4 times.采用一种新工艺使这种电视的主要成本降低了71%。算成整数分母，即“降低到5/17”或“降低了12/17”，但这样仍不符合汉语习惯。在不要求绝对精确的情况下，可进一步换算成百分数，即“降低到29%”或“降低了71%”。单句训练1 In 2001, Chinas GDP reached 9.5933 trillion yuan, almost tripling that of 1989, representing an average annual inc
