问题 女士们、先生们:
    我非常高兴能利用英中贸协年会的机会向英国工商界朋友们致以诚挚的问候。多年来,英中贸协一直关心和支持中英关系发展,是堪称两国友好交流的桥梁和互利合作的纽带。在此,我谨对英中贸协及诸位长期为促进中英经贸合作所做的不懈努力和杰出贡献表示感谢,对此次大会的召开表示热烈的祝贺。
    十六大以来,我们继续坚持以经济建设为中心,坚持改革开放,各项工作都有条不紊地向前推进。但是,突如其来在中国一些地方发生了“非典”疫情。这是一种尚未被人类全面认识的新型传染病,要有效控制并消除疫情需要有一个过程。
    中国政府是负责任的政府,始终把人民的身体健康和生命安全放在第一位。我们采取了果断措施,完善应急机制和社会救助机制,依靠科学,依靠群众在全国开展了一场预防“非典”的攻坚战。尽管任务非常艰巨,但我们有决心打赢这一仗。
    中国人民抗击“非典”的斗争赢得了国际社会的广泛同情和支持。不久前,英政府决定向中国提供500万美元的援助,体现了英国人民对中国人民的深情厚谊。中国有句老话,“患难见真情”,英方的友好举措博得了中国人民的高度评价与赞赏。
    英国医疗科技发达,研发实力雄厚,在传染病的防治等方面积累了不少有益经验,我们愿学习借鉴并开展合作。中华民族是在逆境中自强奋斗的民族,中国政府是勇于面对困难的政府。我们深信,中国人民在国际社会的支持下,经过不懈努力,一定能够驱散疫病的阴霾,迎来更大的繁荣和发展。

选项

答案 I am delighted to have the opportunity of this annual meeting of the British-Chinese Trade Association to convey my cordial greetings to friends from the British business community. Over the years, the Association has been active in supporting the development of Sino-British relations and has served as a bridge of friendly exchanges and a bond of mutually-beneficial cooperation. Hereby, I wish to express my warm congratulations on the convocation of the meeting and my sincere thanks to the Association and all the friends present here for your unremitting efforts and the outstanding contribution you have made in promoting Sino-British economic cooperation and trade. Since the 16th National Party Congress, we have continued to take economic development as our central task and press ahead with reform and opening-up. We have been making steady progress in all our endeavors. Unfortunately, however, the epidemic of SARS struck parts of China all of a sudden. As it is a new type of disease and the humanity has not yet had full knowledge of it, there will be some time before we can effectively control and eventually eradicate the epidemic. The Chinese government is a highly responsible government. It has all along prioritized the health and safety of its people in its governance. Since the outbreak of the disease, we have taken a series of resolute measures to improve the mechanisms for emergency handling and social relief. We have launched throughout the country a decisive battle against SARS by relying on science and on our people. We know the task is enormously challenging, but we have the conviction to win the battle. In the battle against SARS, the Chinese people have won sympathy and support worldwide. Not long ago, the British government decided to render five million US dollars worth of assistance to China. This is an embodiment of the deep friendship between our two peoples. We have a saying in China: "True friendship is seen in times of adversity" and in English "A friend in need is a friend indeed". The friendly gestures of the British side have been highly acclaimed and appreciated by the Chinese people. Britain boasts advanced medical science and technology, strong R & D capabilities and ample useful experience in the prevention and treatment of communicable diseases. We would like to enter into cooperation with you in this regard to learn from your strong points. The Chinese nation is a nation with the strength of fighting and advancing in adversities, and the Chinese government is a government that has the courage to face up to difficulties. We are deeply convinced that the Chinese people, with the support of the international community and the unyielding efforts of their own, will surely dispel the dark clouds of the epidemic and embrace greater prosperity and development.

    - 结构理解采分点
    1.多年来,英中贸协一直关心和支持中英关系发展,是堪称两国友好交流的桥梁和互利合作的纽带。
    原句前后部分逻辑关系较为松散,可用and将两部分组成并列句。前一部分如用原文主谓结构,无法顺畅使“关心”和“支持”分别与宾语搭配,而且译文显得过于中式化,因此需另找谓语;后半句同样,用“是……”系表结构也存在相同问题,因此,需改换为其他动词做谓语。原句可译为“Over the years, the Association has been active in supporting the development of Sino-British relations and has served as a bridge of friendly exchanges and a bond of mutually-beneficial cooperation.”
    2.在此,我谨对英中贸协及诸位长期为促进中英经贸合作所做的不懈努力和杰出贡献表示感谢,对此次大会的召开表示热烈的祝贺。
    该句的翻译是重大场合常用语,可选用适当套路表达法,确定其主体结构,这里可用express one’s congratulations on和express one’s sincere thanks to结构。因为是重大场合,选词用字也要适当考究,因此这里用hereby来表示“在此”。原句可译为“Hereby,I wish to express my warm congratulations on the convocation of the meeting and my sincere thanks to the Association and all the friends present here for your unremitting efforts and the outstanding contribution you have made in promoting Sino-British economic cooperation and trade."
    3.这是一种尚未被人类全面认识的新型传染病,要有效控制并消除疫情需要有一个过程。
    该句的翻译,如要紧凑,就需找寻原句内的语义逻辑关系。该句前后存在因果关系。因此,原句可译为“As it is a new type of disease and the humanity has not yet had full knowledge of it, there will be some time before we can effectively control and eventually eradicate the epidemic.”
    4.我们采取了果断措施,完善应急机制和社会救助机制,依靠科学,依靠群众在全国开展了一场预防“非典”的攻坚战。
    对原句的翻译首先应根据其语义关系确定可将前后部分分为两个句子。前半部分中有“采取”和“完善”两个动词,需要处理它们的从属关系。后半句中的“开展”可选译为地道的英文单词“launch”。因此,原句可译为“We have taken a series of resolute measures to improve the mechanisms for emergency handling and social relief. We have launched throughout the country a decisive battle against SARS by relying on science and on our people.”
    5.我们深信,中国人民在国际社会的支持下,经过不懈努力,一定能够驱散疫病的阴霾,迎来更大的繁荣和发展。
    因为有句首的“深信”,可使用英文表达“be convinced that...”来确定全句的主体结构。后面的内容可根据该句式的要求,改变原有的句子成分,灵活处理。因此,原文可译为“We are deeply convinced that the Chinese people, with the support of the international community and the unyielding efforts of their own, will surely dispel the dark clouds of the epidemic and embrace greater prosperity and development.”
