问题     客家(the Hakka)民居“福建土楼”主要分布在中国福建西南山区。独特的设计、蔚为壮观的结构及防潮抗震的特点使土楼不同于世界上任何其他居住建筑。客家人原来居住在中原,几百年前为躲避战乱才迁移到福建、广东和广西的。迁移到当地后,由于文化习俗上的差异,客家人与当地人经常产生冲突。为了保护家族,他们建造了土楼,这些土楼最多能容纳千户人家。2008年,共有46处福建土楼被列入世界文化遗产名录(the World Heritage Site List)。

选项

答案 Fujian Tulou, a type of civilian residence of the Hakka, is mainly distributed in the mountainous areas in southwestern Fujian, China Its unique design and magnificent structure as well as its anti-humidity and anti-earthquake nature have made it different from any other residential buildings in the world. The Hakka people used to live in central China before they migrated to provinces of Fujian, Guangdong and Guangxi to avoid wars several hundred years ago. Upon their arrival, they found themselves in constant conflicts with the local people due to differences in cultures and customs. To protect their clan, they built these earthen structures, which could accommodate as many as a thousand of families. In 2008, a total of 46 Fujian Tulou sites were included in the World Heritage Site List.

解析 1.本段介绍性文字涉及对现在和过去情况的介绍,主要包含一般现在时和过去时两种时态。
2.第1句中“福建土楼”是主语,其修饰语“客家民居”处理为插入语更符合英语的表达习惯。
3.第2句中适当补充物主代词its,以符合英语常用代词的特点。“防潮”和“抗震”都可以通过前缀anti-来表达。本句还可译为it is distinguished from any other...by its unique design….
4.第3句“客家人原来居住在……广西的”可用before一词连接前后两个分句,使句子更加紧凑,清楚表明了动作发生的先后顺序。
5.倒数第2句中重复出现“土楼”,可考虑将“(这些土楼)最多能容纳千户人家”处理为定语从句which could accommodate as many as a thousand of families,使表达更加简洁。
