英译汉

1、The problem, perhaps, is that in our social life in Asia we tend to be more

tolerant of friends and relatives who make us wait for half an hour at a downtown rendezvous. We do not think they are taking our friendship or affection for granted. We do not consider them guilty of disrespect. What is worse, we let them exonerate themselves with dubious excuses. (Time to Stop Excuses for Lateness)

问题可能是，在我们亚洲人的社会生活中，对于那些让我们在市区约会的地点等候半小时的亲友们，我们往往比较宽容。我们不会认为他们不把我们的友谊和亲情当回事。我们也不会认为他们失礼。更糟糕的是，我们还容许他们用含糊其辞的借口来为自己开脱。

2、But how we react to latecomers in our social lives is a matter of individual choice. In the world of modern business we cannot afford that flexibility.

可是，如何对待社会生活中的那些迟到者却是个人问题。而在现代商业领域，我们不容许有这种灵活性。

3、We children----eight brothers and two sisters----could enjoyed that good name, unearned, unless and until we did something to lose it. Compromising it would hurt not only the transgressor but also those we love and those who loved us. We had a stake in one another. (The Power of a Good Name)

我们八兄弟俩姐妹没费任何力气就能享有由父母挣来的好名声，但如果我们做了什么不合适的事这种好名声就会丧失。破坏这种好名声，受到伤害的不仅是损害名声的人自己，而且还有我们爱的人和爱我们的人。我们彼此息息相关。

4、Cultural influences such as television and movies portray mostly a world in

which respect goes to the most violent. Life is considered cheap.

文化影响，诸如电视和电影，经常推崇的是一个极端暴力的世界。生命在这里一文不值，不被珍惜。

5、With regard to the primal importance of food, Chinese people believe food is one of the ecstasies of life, to be thought about in advance; to be smothered with loving care throughout its preparation; and to have time lavished on it in the final pleasure of eating. (Chinese Food)

说到食物的重要性，中国人认为，食物是生活中一大乐事，需要事先考虑，需要精心焖煮，还要肯花时间享受最后的美味佳肴。

6、The eye must be pleased as well as the palate; if not, then a certain essentially Chinese element is missing, an element that links this cuisine with that most typical and yet elusive concept Dao.

味觉要满足，视觉也如此；否则，一种本质上中国特色的东西，也就是使中华美食与那典型而令人难以捉摸的道家观念相联系的因素就消失了。

7、The Rape of Nanjing first struck a chord with Chinese communities in the United States and other countries, and then with the general public. As a best-seller it has triggered political and intellectual reverberations in Japan and China. （They Will Not BeForgotten)

8、Chang learned from her research that “civilization itself is tissue-thin.” She adds, “Some quirk in human nature allows even the most unspeakable acts of evil to become banal within minutes, provided that they occur far enough away to pose no personal threat.”

张女士从自己的研究中了解到“文明本身就很脆弱”，她说，“人性中的某些怪异之处使得即使是最难以启齿的罪恶行径， 只要发生在足够遥远的地方， 而且对个人不构成威胁， 也会变得平淡。”

9、It is an unsettling experience to arrive in the UK and fine oneself uttering vocal noises----speech is probably too strong a word for it----that are received nearly everywhere as at best quaint and imprecise, at worst as misleading and noisy. Even the most innocuous encounters suddenly become charged with the possibility of confusion. (In a Manner of Speaking)

到了英国之后，你会发现自己担心又着急，因为你所发出的声音在英国人看来简直就是噪音（用 “说话”这个词可能太抬举了），说好听点，是奇特的，不准确的；说难听点，则是又让人摸不着头脑又鸹噪的。那些看上去最不可能引起问题的碰面也会顿时使人困惑不解。

10、This studied ambiguity—what we might call a flight from literalness—remains a characteristic feature of English discourse.

11、She did not hear the story as many women have heard the same, with a paralyzed inability to accept its significance. She wept at once, with sudden, wild abandonment, in her sister’s arm. When the storm of grief had spent itself she went away to her room alone. (The Dream of an Hour)

她没有象许多女人听到同样的消息那样，无法接受而呆若木鸡。她立刻在她姐姐的怀中哭了起来，哭得一发不可收拾。从强烈的悲痛中平息下来后，她独自走回自己的房间去了。

12、There would be no one to live for her during those coming years; she would live for herself. There would be no powerful will bending hers in that blind persistence with which men and women believe they have a right to impose a private will upon a fellow-creature. A kind intention or a cruel intention made the act seem no less a crime as she looked upon it in that brief moment of illumination.

在未来的那些年中，不再有人为她而活，她会为自己而活。人们总是执意认为他们有权将个人的意志强加给他人，以后她不必再盲目地屈从于任何专横的意志，豁然明了的一霎那，在她看来，善意也好，恶意也好，都使这种行为看起来不亚于犯罪。

13、In the eight seconds or so that it takes to choose a laundry detergent or frozen pizza, the package must scream or shine or purr or whisper its message of

good taste or cheapness or strength or luxury loud and clear enough to grab our interest. No wonder, then, that designing, producing and marketing packages has grown into such an enterprise, a business of equal parts of art and artifice, science and deception. (Package Design)

选购洗涤剂或冷冻披萨需要大约8秒钟，物品的包装可以尽一切手段将其物美价廉，坚实耐用、精美华贵等特点充分地表达出来，以吸引我们的兴趣。这就难怪既有其艺术性，又有其伪装性，既有其科学性，又有其欺骗性的包装行业的设计，生产和销售市场获得了蓬勃发展。

14、Urban sleekness and traditional quaintness highlight the contrasts of . One massive tower looks like an industrial plant turned inside out, its steel structure visible for miles. Another looks like triangular blades stacked helter-skelter. Less extreme but equally impressive monoliths cascade down the mountain. ()

优美的城市造型和传统的古朴典雅突显了两个截然不同的。一座巨塔看上去就像将内部结构呈现在外的工厂，它的钢筋结构几里外就能看见。另一巨塔看起来则像杂乱无序堆放着的三角刀片。不那么极端却同样令人印象深刻的建筑群像瀑布般沿山脉倾泻而下。

15、 These are the two s, one sleek and pulsating with power, the other a haven of old-style Chinese life. The two are shoved together, often side by side, creating a curious and exciting city.

这便是的两种风格,一种是豪华而又活力奔放,另一种则沿袭了中国传统的生活方式。这两种特色互相融合，共同创造了这个令人向往而又魅力无比的城市。
