该篇材料涉及中国的传统文化——中 秋节庆祝的内容，主要考察对于文化词
汇的理解与灵活翻译运用能力，诸如“农历”、“悲欢离合”、“ 阴晴圆缺”、
“团圆”、“仙女嫦娥”等。
第一句应译为含有被动语态的简单句，同时，注意 “农历八月十五日”的灵
活表达。当主句的主语是泛指人称代词，且语境并不强调动作的发出者时，宜采
用被动语态进行翻译，语体更加正式，其更符合英文的表达习惯。“农历八月十
五日”可以表达 为“the 15th day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar 15th,
August of the lunar calendar ”；“中秋节”可译为“Mid-Autumn Festival”，该
词已广为理解和接受，亦可音译为“Zhong Qiu Jie”，以保留中国文化特色词语。
第二句的翻译主要考查“悲欢离合”、“阴晴圆缺”、“联系” 这三个词的
语义选择。“悲欢离合”即为“悲伤，欢乐，离别，重逢”，应采用名词形式，
其中 ，“离别”可译为“partingdeparturefarewell”等。“阴晴圆缺”应译为习

语“the moon waxes and wanes”，亦可简单译为“the changes of the moon”，就
能较准确地表达句意。“联系”可译为“relate A to B connect A towith B
associate A with B”等。

第三句应译为带有原因状语从句的复合句，主要考查非限定性定语从句的运
用以及“团圆”的语义选择。“象征着团圆”这个分句可译成非限定性定语从
句，对“满月”的 信息进行补充说明；亦可译为原因状语从句的谓语部分，如
“Since the full moon is round and symbolizes reunion”。“团圆”这个词具有一定
的文 化色彩，译文中较难既保留“圆”的形象又表达“圆满团聚”的意义，这
里换一种说法，译成“reun ionbeing together”即可。主句中的“也被称为”可译
为“…is also known as…”。
第四句的翻译主要考查连接词“while”以及不定式作目的状语 的用法。根
据语境，前后句意表明的是不同情况下的对比，没有强烈的转折关系，所以应用
“w hile”，而不用“but howeverwhereas”等连接词。“以寄思念”为目的状语，
宜用动词的不定式进行翻译，可译为“to sendexpress their longing for their loved
ones”，或“to comfort their homesickness”，或简单地译为“to miss their
home”。
第五句可译为简单句，主要考察被动语态的灵活运用以及“赋予”、“月
宫”、“仙女”的语义选择。根 据语境，该段主要描述中秋节的风俗习惯，前面
已有两句采用“中秋节”为主语，为了使上下文更好地衔 接或更连贯，此句仍以
“中秋节”为主语，并采用被动语态进行翻译；当然，采用主动语态翻译也是可< br>以接受的。“赋予”可译成“A be given sth. bywith B A be endowed with sth. by
B”；“月宫”即为“the moon”；“仙女”译为“fairy”。
