第二届翻译大赛初赛(2010年)翻译原文及参考译文
一、将下列短文译成汉语(50分): 1)At a time when a towering personality like Mme.Curie has come to the end of her life, let us not merely rest content with recalling what she has given to mankind in the fruits of her work.It is the moral qualities of its leading personalities that are perhaps of even greater significance for a generation and for the course of history than purely intellectual accomplishments.Even these latter are, to a far greater degree than is commonly credited, dependent on the stature of character.It was my good fortune to be linked with Mme.Curie through twenty years of sublime and unclouded friendship.I come to admire her human grandeur to an ever growing degree.Her strength, her purity of will, her austerity toward herself, objectively, her incorruptible judgment—all these were of a kind seldom found joined in a single individual.She felt herself at every moment to be a servant of society and her profound modesty never left any room for complacency.2)It was common enough during the first year of the war to meet people who took an aesthetic pleasure in the darkne of the streets at night.It gave them un nouveau frion.They said that never had London been so beautiful.It was hardly a gracious thing to say about London.And it was not entirely true.The hill of Piccadilly has always been beautiful, with its lamps suspended above it like strange fruits.The Thames between Westminister Bridge and Blackfriars has always been beautiful at night, pouring its brown waters along in a dusk of light and shadow.And had we not always had Hyde Park like a little dark forest full of lamps, with the gold of the lamps shaken into long Chinese alphabets in the windy waters of the Serpentine? There was Chelsea, too.Surely, even before the war, Chelsea by night lay in darkne like a town forgotten and derelict in the snug gloom of an earlier century.(注:un nouveau frion,法语,一种新的颤动;Piccadilly:皮卡迪利,位于伦敦西区的繁华地段;Westminister Bridge and Blackfriars: 威斯敏斯特大桥和黑衣修士区;Serpentine:蛇湖,海德公园内;Chelsea切尔西区。)
二、将下列短文译成英语(50分): 1)名声、财产、知识等等都是身外之物,人人都可求而得之,但没有人能够代替你感受人生。你死以后,没有人能够代替你再活一次。如果你真正意识到了这一点,你就会明白,活在世上,最重要的事就是活出你自己的特色和滋味来。你的人生是否有意义,衡量的标准不是外在的成功,而是对人生意义的独特领悟和坚守,从而使你的自我闪放出个性的光芒。
2)至于时间,更不成问题。达尔文一生多病,不能多作工,每天只能做一点钟的工作。你们看他的成绩!每天花一点钟看10页有用的书,每年可看3600多页书,30年可读11万页书。
诸位,11 万页书可以使你成一个学者了。可是每天看三种小报也得费你一点钟的工夫,四圈麻将也得费你一点半钟的光阴。看小报呢?还是打麻将呢?还是努力做一个学者呢?全靠你们自己的选择。易卜生说:“你的最大责任是把你这块材料铸造成器。”

英译中
1)当居里夫人这样杰出的人物逝世的时候,我们不能仅缅怀她的研究成果为人类做出的贡献。对于一个时代和整个历史进程来说,杰出人物所具有的高尚品质也许比他们纯智力成就具有更重大的意义。即使后者也依赖于人格力量,而这依赖的程度远比一般人所想象的要高得多。
我很荣幸,20 年来一直和居里夫人保持高尚而纯洁的友谊。我对她高尚品德的敬佩与日俱增。她的力量,她的意志的纯粹,她的严与自律,她的客观,她的公正的判断—一 个人身上极少具有如此多方面的品质。她每分每秒都觉得自己是社会的公仆。她虚怀若谷的品德从未被丝毫自满的情绪所沾染。
2)战争的头一年里,在夜间街头的一片黑暗之中,有人产生了一种审美快感,遇见这样的人是相当普通的事。黑暗使他们感到一种新的颤动。他们都说伦敦从来没有如此美丽!用这样的话来形容伦敦并不算溢美之词。而且这样说也并非完全真实。皮卡迪利大街的上空一向是美丽的,悬空的街灯宛如异乡的水果。横贯威斯敏斯特大桥与黑衣修士区的泰晤士河,到了夜间一向是美丽的,在光影相映的暮色之中,延绵不断地倾泻着褐色的河水。我们不是一向拥有海德公园吗?它宛如灯火密布的小小黑森林,金光闪闪的灯火在蛇湖起了风浪的水面上摇曳不定,变成了长形的中文汉字。还有切尔西区呢。确实,甚至就在战前,切尔西区到了夜晚便静卧于黑暗之中,就像上实际的一个镇子,为了淡忘遭到遗弃,消没于隐然的昏沉之中。(杨岂深译)
中译英
1)Fame, wealth and knowledge are merely worldly poeions which are within the reach of anybody striving for them.But your experience of and feeling about life are your own and not to be shared(But no one can experience life on behalf of you).No one can live your life over again after your death A full awarene of this will point out to you that the most important thing in your existence is your distinctive individuality or something special of yoursWhat really counts is not your worldly succe but your peculiar insight into the meaning of life and your commitment to it, which add lusterto your personality.2)Time is no object.Charles Darwin could only work one hour a day due to his ill health.Yet what a remarkable man he was!If you spend one hour a day reading 10 pages of a book, you can finish more than 3600 pages a year, and 110,000 pages in 30 years.Dear students, 110,000 pages will be quite enough to make a learned man of you.It will take you one hour to read three tabloids a day, and one and half hours to finish four rounds of mah-jong a day.Reading tabloids, playing mah-jong or striving to be a learned man, the choice lies with you.Henrik Ibsen says, “It is your supreme duty to cast yourself into a useful implement”
