2017年专业英语八级翻译考前模拟练习

　　part 1

　　【中文原文】

　　长城，东起山海关，西至嘉峪关，横跨中国北部，全长六千多公里，号称“万里长城”，是中国古代劳动人民智慧的结晶，是世界伟大的建筑奇迹之一。

　　中国最早的长城，远在公元前七世纪就已经出现了。公元前221年，秦始皇统一六国后，把秦、赵、燕三国原有长城连接起来，绵延万余里，奠定今天长城的规模，以后历代均有修筑。现存长城，是明代修建的'。

　　长城依山势蜿蜒起伏，宛如苍龙凌空飞舞，十分雄伟壮观，是无数中外游人的登临胜地。

　　【英文译文】

　　Starting at Shanhai Pass in the east and ending up at Jiayu Pass in the west, the Great Wall traverses up and down over numerous mountains and valleys in five of China’s northern provinces and two autonomous regions. As it extends over a distance of more than 6000 kms, it is called in Chinese the Wanmlichangcheng which means “Ten Thousand Li Long Wall”. It is a symbol of intelligence of the working people of old days, and also one of the great architectural miracles in the world.

　　Construction of the wall first began in the 7th century B.C. after Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of the Qin Dynasty (221—206BC) achieved the unification of China in 221 B.C... He had the fortification walls of the three kingdoms Qin, Zhao and Yan linked up to be a continuous wall extending more than ten thousand li (a li = 1/2 kms), which formed the essential size of the present-day Great Wall. Since then the later dynasties continued to repair and build the wall. The great wall as it stands today was restored and reinforced during the Ming Dynasty.

　　The great Wall winds like a giant serpent along the lofty myriad mountains. It is one of the most famous attractions to visitors.

　　part 2

　　【中文原文】

　　我细细量过九十九次自己标高，实属“终生残废”系列。但那时年少，血旺气盛，誓与凡俗抗争到底，于是连哄带骗将一净高1.74米女孩拐回家做起了太太，这一壮举颇为“残废人”们扬了一段眉吐了半口气。

　　将太太置回家中后我才意识到自己的悲哀，这一愤世之举不仅未了我“终生残废”而又平添我“终生遗憾”，我从未享受过将男人坚定有力的胳膊窝勾着太太姣美柔滑的后脖子上街遛弯的幸福。

　　【英文译文】

　　After making perennial efforts to measure my exact height, I reached the inescap-able conclusion that I was permanently handicapped. Back in those days, I was a cal-low young chap vastly capable of daring and foolhardiness, and determined to wrestle with this prejudice against men's lack of height. So by hook or by crook, I married a girl who was 1.74 meters in height. Such an astonishing tour de force thus achieved greatly bolstered the morale and esteem of those of us who were "handicapped".

　　But only after the girl was enticed into matrimony did I begin to feel my self-in-flicted anguish. This over-reaction of mine not only failed to put an end to my "perma-nent handicap"，but also gave me lifetime regret. I was deprived of the earthy pleasure of walling with my wife in the street with my strong art around her delicate neck.
