七、汉译英（本题共，题，每题7.0分，共7分。）

31、有些植物，羞涩地把它们的茎也生到地下去。但是，榕树不仅让它的根深入

地下，也让它们突现在地面：不仅突现在地面，还让它的根悬挂在空中；甚至盘缠

贴附在树身上，使这些错综纠缠和变化万千的树根形成了老榕的古怪的衣裳。再没

有一种植物，把“根”的作用显示于人类之前，像榕树这样的大胆和爽快的了。在

名山胜地的悬崖峭壁上，我甚至看过•些榕树，不需要多少泥土，也能够成长。・

粒榕树种子落在峭壁上，依靠石头隙里一点点儿的泥土，好家伙!它成长起来了。

它的根不能钻进坚硬的石头，就攀附在石壁上成长，在这种场合，这些根简直像一

条条钢筋似的，它们发挥了奇特的作用，把石壁上的•点•滴的营养，都兼收并

蓄,输送到树身去了。因此，你在石壁上看到有一株扭曲了的榕树在泰然地成长，

一点也用不着惊奇。这样重视它的根的树木,在适宜的气候之中，还有什么地方不

能生长的呢！

标准答案：InseveralmountainresortsIhaveevenseensomebaryontreesgrowingon

cliffs.Theycansurvivewithoutmuchearth.Aseedfallsonacliffandgoodheavens,

itbeginstogrowonlydependingonalittleearthamongrocks.Itsrootscannotgointo

roleofreinforcingsteeltoabsorbeverylittlebitofnutritiononthecliffintothe

tree.Therefore?youdon'tneedtofeelsurprisedwhenyouseeatwistedbanyantree

growingexuberantlyoncliffs.

知识点解析：此段落选自秦牧的散文《榕树的美髯》。划线部分多为用逗号连接

的短句，是一篇典型的“散”文，形散而意合。翻译时要注意断句。1.汉语多无

句，第一句翻译成英语时首先需要断句，此处可以处理成“在名山胜地的悬崖峭壁

上，我甚至看过一些榕树”和“（榕树）不需要多少泥土，也能够成长”两个句子。

2.第三句较长，由很多短句构成，翻译时要首先断句。”……像一条条钢筋似的，

它们发挥了奇特的作用”可以合并为一句playthespecialroleofreinforcingsteel；

“把石壁上的一点一滴的营养，都兼收并蓄，输送到树身去了”可以翻译为不定式结

构toabsorbeverylittlebitofnutritiononthecliffintothetree。3.最后一句根据语

义，可以判断出“在石壁上看到有一株扭曲了的榕树在泰然地成长”是表示时间的状

语，翻译时处理为when引导的时间状语从句即可。4.第二句中的“好家伙”是表

示惊叹的感叹语，可以翻译为goodheavens。5.第三句中的“兼收并蓄''意即”吸

收”，翻译为absorb；“攀附何以泽为cling。”……像一条条钢筋似的”是比喻，可

以译成likereinforcingsteels,或和后面的半句语义合并，处理为playthespecial

roleofreinforcingsteel«6.第四句中“泰然地”形容榕树生长得森然繁茂的样子，

可以翻译为exuberantlyo

formulaforhappiness,foryouhaveembracedEternityinsteadofSelf;youhavefeltlife,

andyouarenowtheworldbiggerthanyouwerebeforeyoubegantheproject.

标准答案：若想助人，你并不一定要成为深诸助人之道的专家，重要的是要有一

颗助人之心。你或许粗心鲁莽、笨手笨脚、徒费工夫又毫无成效，但若是诚意相

助，你努力的结果定会是好的。你想帮助的人得知你的心意时，会因为你同担困苦

产生的神奇力量而坚强振作起来。每次你把单纯的助人之心转化为行动，几乎都会

产生期望的善果。然而你助人时带给自己的善果或许是最大的善果。服务他人所获

得的快乐比你为他人带去的快乐要多。行善时，你便摆脱了自我的可怕负担，进入

了一个欢乐而光明的清新世界。只要抱着单纯行善之心，无论结果如何，都是你内

心的一种成功。无私施予是获得快乐最有效的方式，因为你信奉的是“永恒”而非

“自我”，你真切地感受生命，而你现在的世界要比行善伊始更加宽阔。

知识点解析：1.第一段第一句中arl指“艺术”，此处具体引申为“助人之道”。

intention指“目的,意图”,此处则引申为“助人之心”。2.第二句中有几个并列的

形容词crudeandclumsy,wastefulandineffective,翻译时注意发挥汉语多用四字词

语的优势，译为“粗心鲁莽，笨手笨脚，徒费工天又空无成效nothingbul”仅

仅,只”。3.第三句中magic指“魔力,神奇的力量”。4.第四句的主语部分your

simpledesiretohelp,convertedintoaction中的过去分词短语convertedintoaction充

当simpledesiretohelp的定语。该部分nJ译成一个句子“你把单纯的助人之心转化

为行动5.第四句中thegoodsought可译为“好结果”，过去分词sought作后置

定语，指“追求的，期望的“。6.第五句中allempl指“尝试”，该词是中性词，翻译

时注意其褒贬色彩，不要译成“企图7.第七句中freeyourselffrom可译为“摆

脱……”,不要生硬地译成“把自己从……解放出来”。8.第二段第一句中formula

指“公式，规则Eternity和Self两个词使用了大写形式，表示强调，在译文中，

可以加引号表示强调。
