The boiling water is poured over the leaves in the pot and the teapot is promptly covered to steep for several minutes. In this way, the fragrance remains there, and the tea tastes the beast. 要沏茶,通常最好用瓷壶;把开水倒入预先方好茶叶的壶内,立即盖上壶盖,浸泡几分钟。这样,茶香不失。茶味最佳。 (2)Rail transport is readily available all over Great Britain but expensive: prices outpace most of those in the continental countries and Eurail is not valid. 大不列颠的铁路运输四通八达,单价格昂贵,价格提升快于大陆的大多数国家。大陆铁路不能直达英国。,2019/8/17,5,15.1.1 旅游英语的文体特点,(3)Perhaps no city is as fabulous as Venice built on pilings, this labyrinth(迷宫) poises(悬着) over a lagoon(泻湖). 也许没有一个城市会像建在木桩上的威尼斯这样奇妙,这是一座悬在泻湖上的迷宫。 (4) The deep-green mountain forests of the northeast coast in USA are drenched with more than 250 centimeters of rain each year. At the other extreme, the deserts of the southeast receive less than 13 centimeters annually. 美国东北沿海一带苍郁的深山密林,每年获得雨量超过250厘米,而东南部的沙漠则年降雨量不及13厘米。 (5) When the time is reached for her departure for the grooms family, the bride in red clothes and green shoes and with a piece of red cloth covering her head is carried by her brothers into her sedan. 吉辰已到,新人该去婆家了,新娘穿上红衣绿鞋,蒙着红盖头,由兄弟抬上花轿。,实践,2019/8/17,6,15.1.1 旅游英语的文体特点,二、措辞讲究,生动形象,引人入胜 旅游资料未来达到某种宣传效果,常常在措辞上颇下功夫,尤其是中文资料,作者总是千方百计地用又没的文字,细腻的描写,运用风趣的歇乏,给人以美的享受,激起浓厚的游兴。 1描写细腻,文字优美 (1) Look into the distance and you will have a nice view of the White Swan Pond in the Pearl River and boats up and down the river with the bright moon and twinkling stars in the sky. 夜晚,凭栏远望珠江上的白鹅潭,皓月当空,繁星闪闪,舟楫如梭,鹅潭美景,一览无余。 (2)A slow surf is breaking on the reefs and islands, sending up fountains of spray, and the frost-touched grass on the heath is bronze in the sun. 缓缓的海浪拍击着礁石、岛屿、溅起万道水花飞沫,荒地上经霜的小草在阳光下呈现出青铜色。,实践,2019/8/17,7,15.1.1 旅游英语的文体特点,(3)Bells chime, flocks of pigeons crisscross the sky, violins play, couples embrace in the sunsetthe visitor takes it all in from a congenial (适意的)café. 夕阳西下,钟声悠扬,飞鸽满天,提琴鸣奏,情人相拥游客坐在舒适惬意的咖啡馆里,尽可把此情此景俱收眼底。 (4) There are green mountains, verdant forest, gurgling streams and springs, chirping birds and fragrant flowers around the ancient monastery. 古寺周围山峦叠翠,古林苍郁,泉溪淙淙,鸟语花香。 2幽默风趣,活泼有效,实践,2019/8/17,8,15.1.1 旅游英语的文体特点,三风格活泼幽默 (1) The cheapest way to reach Britain from continental Europe is to swim across the English Channel; this requires extraordinary stamina and has been tackled by only a handful of budget travelers. 从欧洲大陆来大不列颠旅行,最省钱的方式当属泅渡英吉利海峡,但这需要超人的耐力,迄今仅有几个“老抠”办到过。 (2) The atmosphere of Piccadilly Circus is distinctly cosmopolitan, and one hears around one a great variety of languages. It has been said that if you listen carefully, you may even hear English. (伦敦的中心)皮卡迪利广场上一切都具有鲜明的世界性。置身其中,可以听到许多语言,据说仔细听,还能听到英语呢!,实践,2019/8/17,9,四富有哲理,发人深省 (1)The first words a Navaho child hears are the prayer: May walk in beauty and when his journey through life ends, the words of the Night Chant are: In beauty it is finished. This beauty lives on for us to see, to remember, to think about. 那瓦霍人的孩子出生后听到的第一句祈祷是:“愿他踏上美丽人生旅程。”而在他的人生旅程结束时,晚歌又唱道:“生命在美丽的人生旅程中结束。”这种美讲流传下去,留给人们观赏,留给人们回忆,留给人们思考。 (2)Century after century, winds blow yellow sand around the pyramids. Rulers have come and gone. Everything seems to change except the pyramids. They remain a 5000-year-old puzzle. 五千年来,狂风劲扫,黄沙漫卷,多少朝代兴盛衰微,文治武功过眼烟云。唯独这风尘满面的金字塔依然屹立,赫赫威仪,仍为千古不解之谜。,实践,2019/8/17,10,五活泼热情,富有感染力 旅游英语往往热情活泼,朗朗上口,融旅游于宣传于一体,或强调旅游公司的优质服务,或突出旅游自愿的独一无二,因而不乏褒扬之词。如: (1) This is your chance to live the movies on 420 incredible acres of breath-taking rides and spectacular showsright besides the biggest stars of the time! 惊心动魄的游乐项目,多姿多彩的节目表演,在这420英亩的巨型游乐场上,您将拥有一个难以置信的机会;生活在电影里就在各时代大明星的身旁!

It is so big and moves at such a fast pace that it can pass you by if you do not reach out for it. 美国是你的多姿多彩、热情好客。它国土辽阔,若不奋力去抓,可能会从你身边溜走。,实践,2019/8/17,11,第二节 旅游英语的翻译,旅游英语翻译要求:一要忠实于原文,但不是词句转换的“对号入座”,二要时刻以游客为中心,以让游客读懂、看懂为目的。必要时需对原文作一些技术性处理。 一、文化因素的处理 1“洋化”(异化) 随着信息技术的进步,国际交流的日趋频繁,以及国民素质的不断提高,许多过去纯属异国文化的东西已被本国人所熟悉、所接受。在此种情况下,可采取“洋化”,以保持异域特色。如: (1)Venice is the Shakespeare of citiesunchallenged, incomparable, and beyond envy. 威尼斯是城市中的莎士比亚举世称赞,无以伦比,令人诚服。,2019/8/17,12,15.1.2 实践旅游英语,实践 1 实践 2 实践 3 实践 4 实践 5 实践 6 实践 7,2019/8/17,13,15.1.2 实践旅游英语,Part Two Practice (翻译实践练习) 请口译下列词语: 1.China Civil International Tourist Corporation 中国民间国际旅游公司 2.Crane International Tours Ine. 松鹤国际旅行有限公司 3. food and beverage division 餐饮部 4.health spa 矿泉疗养地 5. national tourist attractions 国家旅游景点 6.

Yes, and the wind comes only because it is so pleasing here. 要不是风,维也纳一切都令人惬意。是呀,正因为如此令人惬意,风才愿意来凑热闹啊。 (3)People cant die, along the coastexcept when the tides pretty nigh out. They cant be born, unless its pretty nigh innot properly born, till flood. Hes going out with the tide. 生活在大海之滨的人都不会死海潮退尽,才是他们死的时刻;他们也都不会生,海潮涌进时,他们才真正诞生到人间。海潮消失,他就随着消失。 3约定俗成问题 旅游资料的翻译当沿用有关行业的习惯用语,常用语的翻译尤其如此。如:,2019/8/17,32,rapid-issue visa 快速签发的签证 tourism industry 旅游业 travel-related business 旅游相关行业 tourist association 旅游者协会 tour escort of foreign travel service 外国旅行社委派的导游(领队) tour operator 旅游经纪人 multilingual guide 多语导游 guest tour 特邀旅游团 tour packer 地方旅游经营者 seasonal holiday maker 季节性度假旅游者 would-be traveler 潜在的旅游者 resort complex 旅游胜地综合设施 theme park 主题公园 Potala Palace 布达拉宫,2019/8/17,33,The Summer Palace in Chengde 承德避暑山庄 Yellowstone National Park 黄石国家公园 Emperor Qins Terra-cotta Warriors 秦兵马俑 Taj Mahal 泰姬陵 St. Peters Cathedral 圣彼得大教堂 Jokhang Temple 大昭寺 The Bund 外滩 Sydney Opera House 悉尼歌剧院 Fontainebleau 枫丹白露 Yosemite 优山美地公园 World Heritage List 世界遗产名录 三、易犯的错误 1望文生义,即不求甚解或想当然。如: In Rome, onerous put an end to Gladiatorial combats in 404 ( possible after a monk had thrown himself into the arena in protest and was killed by the angry crowd). 公元404年,奥里诺斯宣布罗马取消剑士格斗(可能由于一位和尚冲进竞技场以示抗议,后被愤怒的人群杀死)。,2019/8/17,34,“和尚”是对佛门弟子的称呼,在天主教盛行的罗马,应称“修道士”。 2佶屈聱牙,即逐字照搬,使用英语式汉语。如: Down breaking over the islands, very beautiful in a soft grey light with many clouds. There is a transparency about the light here which cannot be described or painted. 拂晓已降临岛上,灰色的柔光,许多云彩,景色美丽极了。这里有透明的光线,它是不能描写也是不能画出的。 建议改译:曙色中的海岛美极了,晨曦柔和,彩云片片。澄澈的光影是无法描写也无法绘画的。 3超额翻译,即任意添枝加叶。如:,2019/8/17,35,In the Palace of Pagoda Forest, the jade bamboo shoots stand like spears. You are sure to be deeply impressed at the very sight of it. 塔林宫玉笋拥峙,琼峰嶙峋,如矗天枪槊,似七级浮屠,其苍莽之势,使人为之一振。 其中,“矗天枪槊,似七级浮屠”属超额翻译。,2019/8/17,36,第三节 旅游英语应用文的翻译,一、旅游指南 二、旅程安排 三、通知 四、旅游广告及旅游条件书,2019/8/17,37,第三节 旅游英语应用文的翻译,Part On
