2023年四六级翻译终极预测50篇

书法(calligraphy)是中⃞文化的精髓。书法⃞中⃞随处可见，与日常生活紧密相连。书法作品能装点客厅、书房和卧室。它是将汉字写⃞吸水性良好的宣纸(Xuanpaper)上，然后将作品贴⃞一⃞镶有丝绸边的厚纸上，安上卷轴(scroll)或用画框装裱起来挂⃞墙上。书法作品通常是一首诗、一副对联或主人很喜欢的座右铭。主人亲自书写的作品将体现他的愿望、兴趣以及文学或艺术才华。一幅书法作品可以给白色的墙壁增添活力，为宾客友人带来快乐。参参考译文：CalligraphyistheessenceofChineseculture.ItcanbefoundeverywhereinChina,andiscloselylinkedtodailylife.Calligraphicworksdecoratesittingrooms,studiesandbedrooms.TheChinesecharactersarewrittenonXuanpaperwhichisgoodatabsorbingink.Theworkwillbepastedonapieceofthickpaperwithasilkedge,andthenmountedonascrollorputintoapictureframeforhangingonthewall.Usually,acalligraphicworkcontainsapoem,apairofcouplets,oramottotheownerlikesverymuch.Ifthecalligraphicworkiswrittenbytheownerhimself,itwilldemonstratehiswishandinterestaswellashisliteraryorartistictalent.Acalligraphicworkcanbringvitalitytothewhitewall,pleasuretoguestsandfriends.是世界上公认发明指南针的⃞家。早⃞2400多年前，中⃞人就创造出世界上最早的指南针。后来经过不断改进，到宋朝(theSongDynasty)人们制造出铁针指南针并Dynasty)郑和下西洋提供了条件。后来指南针传入欧洲，推动了欧洲航海事业的发展为，哥伦布(Columbus)的航行提供了技术⃞证。参参考译文：Chinaisuniversallyrecognizedasthecountryhavinginventedthecompass.Asearlyas2,400yearsago,Chinesepeoplecreatedtheearliestcompassintheworld.Lateritwasfurtherimprovedcontinuously.DuringtheSongDynasty,peopleproducedthecompasswithironneedlesandapplieditinnavigation.Chinaisthefirstcountrytousethecompassonseagoingships.ThecompassprovidedaidforZhengHe'svoyagestotheWesternOceanintheMingDynasty.LaterthecompassspreadintoEurope,promotingthedevelopmentoftheEuropeanmarineindustryandguaranteeingtechnicalsupportforColumbus'navigation.⃞古代，著作和铭文(inscription)通常写⃞竹片或丝绸上。但丝绸昂贵，竹片太重，使用起来都不方便。后来蔡伦开创了用树皮造纸的方法。传统上人们认为他是纸张和造纸术的发明者。尽管公元前2世纪中⃞就已经有了早期的纸，但蔡伦促成了纸张的首次重大改进，并通过添加至关重要的新材料使造纸过程标准化。蔡伦发现了造纸材料的组合方式，发明了造纸术。这项发明使蔡伦闻名于世，甚至使他⃞有生之年就已经得到了认可。参参考译文：Inancienttimes,writingworksandinscriptionsweregenerallywrittenontabletsofbamboooronpiecesofsilk.Butsilkbeingcostlyandbambooheavy,theywerebothnotconvenienttouse.ThenCaiLuninitiatedthemethodofmakingpaperwiththebarkoftrees.Traditionally,heisregardedastheinventorofpaperandthetechniqueofpapermaking.AlthoughearlyformsofpaperhadalreadyexistedinChinasincethe2ndcenturyBC,hefosteredthefirstsignificantimprovementandstandardizationofpapermakingbyaddingessentialnewmaterialsintopaperscomposition.Caifoundthecompositionofpaperandinventedthetechniqueofpapermaking.Caiwasreputedforthisinventionintheworld,andeveninhisownlifetimehewasalreadygivenrecognitionforit.中华老字号(Chinacenturies-old/time-honoredbrands)是指那些历史悠久并拥有良好信誉的中国企业。这些企业往往具有鲜明的中华民族传统文化特征，拥有高品质的产品、技艺或服务，取得广泛的社会认同。同仁堂(Tongrentang)和全聚德(Quanjude)均属北京的老字号。同仁堂创建于1669年，其药品以优良的传统工艺和显著的疗效享誉海内外。以北京烤鸭闻名的全聚德创建于1864年，是中国著名的饭店。参参考译文：Chinatime-honoredbrandsrefertoChinesecompaniesthathavealonghistoryaswellasagoodreputation.WithdistinctcharacteristicsoftraditionalChineseculture,theygetextensivepublicrecognitionbyofferinggood-qualityproducts,techniquesorservices.BothTongrentangandQuanjudearethetime-honoredbrandsinBeijing.Tongrentangwasfoundedin1669，anditsmedicalproductshaveenjoyedagoodreputationbothathomeandabroadforexcellenttraditionalmanufacturingtechniquesandgoodeffects.Foundedin1864andwell-knownforitsBejingroastducks,QuanjudeisafamousrestaurantinChina.印刷术发明之前，想出版新书的学者必须一字一字地抄写。北宋时期，经过多年的实验，毕昇发明了活字印刷术(movable-typeprinting)。他把汉字刻在一小块泥胚(piecesofclay)上，加热汉字直到其变成硬的活字。印书时,人们按顺序将活字摆在一起，印出既经济又省时。中国的活字印刷术首先向东传至朝鲜和日本，之后向西传至波斯(Persia)和埃及，最后传遍全球。活字印刷术发明促进了世界各国的文化交流。参参考译文：Beforeprintingwasinvented，ascholarhadtocopycharactersonebyoneifhewantedtopublishanewbook.DuringtheNorthernSongDynasty,BiShenginventedmovable-typeprintingaftermanyyearsofexperimentation.Heengravedthecharactersonsmallpiecesofclayandheatedthemuntiltheybecamehardmovablecharacters.Whenprintingabook，peopleplacedthemoveablecharactersinorderintoawholeblockandthenranoffaprint.Afterprinting,theytooktheblockapartandreusedthecharacterslater.Thismethodwasbotheconomicalandtime-saving.China'smovable-typeprintingfirstspreadeastwardintoKoreaandJapan,thenwestwardintoPersiaandEgypt,andatlast,aroundtheworld.Theinventionofmovable-typeprintinggreatlypromotedculturalexchangesamongcountriesallovertheworld.圆明园(YuanmingyuanImperialGarden)位于北京西郊，于1708年开始兴建。经过几十年的建造、装饰和改建，圆明园成为当时世界上最出色的园林之一。圆明园继承了中国园林建筑的传统，把不同风格的园林建筑融为一体，充分体现出和谐与完美。除此之外，圆明园在世界园林建筑史上也占有非常重要的地位。遗憾的是，经过几场战争，今天的圆明园只是一片废墟。参参考译文：LocatedinthewestsuburbofBeijing,YuanmingyuanImperialGardenwasfirstconstructedin1708.Afterdecadesofconstruction,decoration,andreconstruction,YuanmingyuanImperialGardenhadbecomeoneofthemostexcellentgardensintheworldatthattime.ItearnedforwardthetraditionofChinesegardenbuildingbycombininggardenarchitecturesofdifferentstylestogivefullexpressionofharmonyandperfectness.Besidesthis,YuanmingyuanImperialGardenalsohadaveryimportantpositionintheworldhistoryofgardenarchitecture.Itisapitythatafterseveralwars,today'sYuanmingyuanImperialGardenisonlyaheapofruins.中国目前拥有世界上最大最快的高速铁路网。高铁列车的运行速度还将继续提升，更多的城市将修建高铁站。高铁大大缩短了人们出行的时间。相对飞机而言，高铁列车的突出优势在于准时，因为基本不受天气或交通管制的影响。高铁极大地改变了中国人的生活方式。如今，它已经成了很多人商务旅行的首选交通工具。越来越多的人也在假日乘高铁外出旅游。还有不少年轻人选择在一个城市工作而在邻近城市居住，每天乘高铁上下班。参参考译文：Chinanowishometothelargestandfastesth
