这本教程是这样的,1、汉译英;2、英译汉;3、容易译错的意思;4、短文练习。前后完成,要一年左右。
边做边想......
两国之间的语言要翻译的是意。
选词只是更好表达的手段。
一种意思有多种表达法,同样,一个句子的翻译,也有多种译法。
只是,哪一种更好些。
摘录佳句已有好几十句,只怕会起到“知其而不知其所以”,所以想,以后应作适当解释。若能举一反三,才是目的。
方式也想改改。
先给出习题,然后遭再进行讲解(当然都是抄书的啦),给出答案。
若有心者不妨先动脑、动笔,再对照钱歌川先生的答案。
时间长了,必有提高。
有觉得更好的译法,请贴出来,以便共同进步(不敢以能者自居,同样在学习中)。
有倒是“实践不要怕错”。
语法中的语,不外乎就以下几种:主、谓(表)、宾、补、定、状。
由这几中语的组合,构成英语的句型。关键是在动力上。
动词学好了,英语成功90%。
剩的就是单词和词组的积累。
但要用得娴熟,还真得下一些功夫。
句型的演变,主要有以下种类。
一、主语+谓语(表)。
The dog is barking.狗在叫。(主+谓)
学习英语是一个从量变到质变的过程。
记得学英语时,在单词和表达方法的量上面,进行过突破。
做法是:为自己规定一个单词 量,如5000,找准自己喜欢的一本教材,在学习和阅读的过程中把不认识的单词都标出来,抄录到特殊的单词本上,写明ID号,并注明出处,如“以下单词从 1到XXXX出自于XXX教材(或小说、资料)”,然后再在字典查出这个单词时同样把ID号也写进去。下次再碰到这个单词时,就会对这个单词有映象了。
我曾经埋头把这事做了一年。硬性地完成后,兴喜地发现,读起英语来,竟是简单多了。而且就算两、三年后,对这些单词的记忆也没有消失多少。
由于单词本的记录法有特殊的格式,并利用了记忆曲线原理,样本在贴上做出来有点困难,所以做在了Word文档中,需要的leave me an E_Mail address.
学习英语,有这样三个阶段:
一、 初学阶段。以单词量来作为衡量的标准,应在1500以下。这段的主要内容是死记硬背。有可能连单词都是靠字母来记的。如countryside乡下一词, 就记成了c、o、u、n、t、r、y、s、I、d、e,数学一词mathematics记成m、a、t、h、e、m、a、t、I、c、s。当然,这个阶段 要完成的任务还有,1、学会读音规则,理解单词拼写与读音之间的关系;2、动词时态的16种形式;3、简单句、并列句与复合句的基本概念。对英语的掌握有 一个初貌。时间要8个月左右,每天两小时半的学习,雷打不动!
二、 规则阶段。单词量应当在3000左右。这阶段的主要任务是,1、阅读约12000单词量的读物;2、进一步深学英语语法,重点掌握词法,非谓语动词和复合 句;3、完全掌握读音规则并见到生词时能写出音标,正确率在90%以上。4、养成精读和泛读的习惯;时间为6个月左右。
三、 归真阶段,该阶段的单词量在5000以上。具体做法是,在进一步掌握非谓语动词用法的基础上去乱讲、乱说、乱写。就象张三丰教张无忌打太极拳没有一招是重 复的,全由心发。而且,是全力实践的时候了,也能完全运用学习语言的规则。你说出来、写出来的英语是标准的,完全达到四级水平 以上。本阶段的时间稍长,要一年左右。
学习语言的规则:
一、 能用单词表达则不用短语;能用短语表达则不用句子;能用简单句表达则不用复合句。
二、 不要说没有听到过的声音;不要用没有见到过的句型和单词。因为有的单词有特殊的意义,用于不同的场合,没有掌握时,用起来全觉得怪怪的。
怎样练习听力?
初学英语时,没有什么听力材料。只有唱片录制的“灵格凤”英语。在配套教材的学习建议中,提出了很好的建议。今天看来,都很有借鉴的价值。
1、 找一套自己喜欢的听力教材。(目前首推美国之音的慢速英语)。
2、 一句一句地模仿听到的声音,象学唱歌一样,把听到的音调高低都学出来,一定要学得“洋味”十足。就算是骂人的话,也要学得像模像样的。
3、 学习的量定在一万单词左右,即50篇200左右的短文。完成这个量后再回头来检查自己的成绩。
具体步骤:
1、 了解要练习的内容的意思。
2、 对照材料看着听。
3、 跟着录音大专声说。
4、 仔细辨别录音的细小之处,如连读、失去爆破等,并加强这方面的练习。喜欢音乐的可以利用音乐来做辅助练习。如专听二声部非主声部,或是乐曲中的某种乐器,等等。
5、 还是听,这次要把材料放在一边,要将听到的声音和实际意义的内容联系起来。
6、 将材料很流利地背诵出来。
7、 经常要将已学过的的内容拿出来再听,做到温故而知新。
好了,在你的大脑里已经储存了许多不再陌生的声音,这些声音都是熟悉而有意义的。一旦遇到合适的场合,它们就会很自然地从你的嘴里出来了。
静坐常思己过,

所以想记在心上!

怎样将语法上的不及物动词当成意义上的及物动词用?
有些动词在语法上是不及物动词,但意义上是及物的;在英语中是不及物动词,在汉语中是及物动词。
如bring。取“得到”的意义时,就得加上介词,成为bring about。介词后面的成份,语法中称之为介词的宾语。
可 以这样理解:不及物动词+介词=及物动词。只是有时表达的并不一定全是那个不及物动词的原意。如knock,敲打。在汉语中“敲打”一定有对象的,是及物 动词。但英语里是不及物动词。在knock与对象之间,得加一介词at。敲门就成了knock at the door。相同的用法如look at等等。

在这里对大家说一句,以动词来分的汉译英到第180句止,就告一段落了。前面的180句中,是以动词的类型为中心翻译的,几乎包含了英语动词中所有的类 型。这里要注意的是,同一个意思,不只是一种动词类型才能翻译的,有好多种说法,喜欢看哪一种,就要看自己的语感了。
接下去是另一种形式的翻译,叫以“构造”来分类造句,主要的是用英语的几种句型来翻译。
一、用单句来翻译
所谓单句,指在一个句子中,只有一个主语和一个谓语。例:
Birds sing.鸟鸣。
What have you been doing.你在做什么?
What beautiful hair that little girl has!那小女孩有多么漂亮的头发呀!
单句不一定是很短的。一个句子中,如果定语和状语多了,也会变得很长。
Boys go.
Boys go somewhere.
All the boys go somewhere.
Nearly all the boys in this class go somewhere for the summer.
如果需要,还可以再长些。有许多种方式可以把单句扩大。就格式而言,有十种形式之多。
1、用补语(表语);2、用宾语;3、用形容词或副词;4、用动词短语;5、用独立结构;6、用副词短语;7、用介词短语;8、用名词短语;9、用代词短语;10、用分词短语。
下面的句子分别用上述的成分来翻译,先试试。
一、用补语(表语)
181、他看上去很年轻。
He looks young.
182、华盛顿小时候是一个好孩子。
Washington was a good boy.
183、中国是要养儿防老的。
I China a son should be the staff of his parents’ old age.

二、用宾语
1、用一个宾语
186、除你以外我没有一个朋友。
