问题     在中国,交通安全是一个难题。据公安部(the Ministry of Public Security)统计,去年有6.2万人死于交通事故。最近出台的新交规(new traffic regulations)正是改善交通安全的最新举措。新修订的交规大大加重了对违规司机的处罚力度。更为严厉的处罚必定会迫使司机遵守交规。专家表示,要想提升交通安全,就需要采取各种综合措施来配合,而交通法规只是解决我国交通安全问题的其中一个方面。

选项

答案 Road safety has become a problem in China. According to the Ministry of Public Security, 62,000 people died from traffic accidents last year. The new traffic regulations put into the practice recently are the latest measure to improve road safety. The newly revised regulations impose much heavier punishment on drivers who violate traffic rules. The severer punishment will surely force drivers to follow traffic regulations. Experts say that to achieve better road safety, various and comprehensive methods are needed, and traffic regulations are only a part of the solution to the road safety problems in China.

解析 1.第2句中的“据公安部统计”用短语according to the Ministry of Public Security来表达即可,“统计”一词可省略不译。
2.第3句中的“最近出台的”较长,可处理成后置定语,用过去分词短语put into practice recently来表达,也可简单译作recent,“出台”略去不译,不影响句意。
3.第4句“大大加重了……处罚力度”如果直译为increase the punishment,则稍显生硬,不如选用意为“在某人身上实施……”的短语impose...on,而“大大加重了”可转换成形容词much heavier,整个表达为impose much heavier punishment on,更符合英语表达习惯。
4.最后一句中的“要想提升交通安全”表目的,用不定式短语to achieve better road safety作目的状语,简洁明了。“就需要采取各种综合措施来配合”缺少主语,翻译时宜采用被动语态,译为various and comprehensive methods are needed,而句中的“采取”和“配合”两词因句子意义已表达完整可省略不译。
