22、y at Sunny Inn can you discover how considerate we are! 只有当您光临阳光饭店时您才会感觉到我们是多么的细致入微。48【解析】本题是一个旅馆的广告式的简介。要把握它的主题和语言风格，以及关键词语和长句的翻译。翻译时要注意体会广告用语的特点，如本题第一句中your best home away from home，通过重复home一词突出饭店带给人的“家”的感觉；随后第二句又有keep you feel at home，继续强调“宾至如归”，翻译选词时要尽量突出原文的感染力，但不能超出原文的信息量。还要注意本题第四句和第五句两个长句的翻译，在

23、理解句意后准确地断句，合理地转换原文的双重否定，使译文合乎汉语的表达习惯。49（4）Notice to TouristsAccording to the schedule, the touring party will visit the highest mountain of this county today.

27、，除非驾驶员宣告停车，让乘客上厕所或买饮料、食品。 55【解析】本题是一张旅行团张贴的布告，告知游客当天的活动以及注意事项。翻译时要把握好原文中复合句的逻辑关系和汉语的表达习惯：unless引导条件状语从句，译为“除非”；但so that引导目的状语从句，As引导原因状语从句，则没用“为了”、“因为”等词，逻辑关系却体现的同样很明显，使译文更为流畅。同时，注意以下词组的翻译：According to “根据”；pick it up“取回（存放物件）”；get off“下（车）”。56（5）We regret that your sales in recent months have falle

32、面临一些我们不了解的困难，如果是这样，我们想了解是否能予以协助。因此，希能寄来一份关于现状的详细报告，以及我们如何协助恢复以前的销售水平的建议。 62【解析】本题是一封商业信件的正文部分，要求收信人提供情况或说明。翻译时注意对复合句的理解：of which we are not aware（我们不了解的）为定语从句，先行词是difficulties，which 前面的介词of是与由固定短语（be）aware of中提前的。此外，要注意一些关键词（组）和术语的翻译：fallen considerably“大为下降”；due to“由于”；the general trend of market“市

33、场总的行情”；look forward to“希望”；as to“关于”。63In the international trade, once an order from the importer is accepted by the exporter, he should send a letter to the importer to confirm his acceptance of the order.

37、asons for refusal.在这种情况下，出口商可以向对方推荐其他替代产品，或提出其他合作机会，或只是拒绝，但绝不应忘记表示遗憾并说明拒绝的原因。67【译文】在国际贸易中，出口商一旦接受了进口商的订单，就需要给进口商写信确认已接受其订单。若对方所订购产品无货可供，或价格已变，出口商觉得无法接受对方的订单，也需要写回信。在这种情况下，出口商可以向对方推荐其他替代产品，或提出其他合作机会，或只是拒绝，但绝不应忘记表示遗憾并说明拒绝的原因。 68【解析】本题对出口商如何答复进口商的订单做了说明。本题全段共三句，因此句子较长，要注意长句的理解，翻译时把握好逻辑关系和拆分、断句的变通之处，如第二

38、句便有多层从句关系：第一层为If引导的条件状语从句；第二层为If从句中所含的由because引导的原因状语从句，而because引导从句本身又是由or连接的并列句。此外，注意以下词（组）或常用贸易术语的翻译：international trade “国际贸易”；order “订单”；acceptance “接受”；the goods ordered are not available“所订购产品无货可供”；recommend some substitutes“推荐其他替代产品”；decline“拒绝”；refusal“拒绝”。69伦敦大学外国学生入学须知 所有英语不是第一语言的申请人，必须证明
