问题     由小学到中学,所修习的无非是一些普通的基本知识。就是大学四年,所授课业也还是相当粗浅的学识。世人常称大学为“最高学府”,这名称易滋误解.好像过此以上即无学问可言。大学的研究所才是初步研究学问的所在,在这里做学问也只能算是初涉藩篱,注重的是研究学问的方法与实习。学无止境,一生的时间都嫌太短,所以古人皓首穷经,头发白了还是在继续研究,不过在这样的研究中确是有浓厚的趣味。

选项

答案 Primary and secondary schools will impart to you only some rudiments of knowledge. Even what you learn during the four years of university will be something quite superficial too. A university has often been misleadingly referred to as "the highest seat of learning", which sounds as if there were no more learning to speak of beyond it. The research institute of a university, however, is the place for preliminary scholarship. But even there you get only the first taste of learning and the emphasis is on research methodology and practice. Art is long, life is short. That is why some of our ancients continued to study classics into their old age. They were, of course, motivated by an enormous interest in their studies.

解析 1、本段总体时态为一般现在时,最后一句话说“古人”,用一般过去时。
2、第1句选择primary and secondary schools为主语,目的是为了连结下文所讨论的auniversity和the research institute of a university。
3、第3句的“学府”可译为seat of learning或institution of higher learning。
4、“这名称易滋误解”可译为非限制性定语从句which is misleading,参考译文采用了评注性副词misleadingly,结构更为紧凑。
5、第4句的“所在”和“在这里”是共指关系,可用where引导定语从句与之衔接;参考译文另起一句,前置there以表强调。句中的“藩篱”一词原指篱笆,这里作比喻用,故“初涉藩篱”按“初步体验做学问的乐趣”译为the fast taste of learning。
