问题 早在春秋时期,杂技(acrobatics)艺术就在中国初次登场(make one’s debut)了。最早发展起来的杂技形式是力量型杂技,战士们用手去旋转(whirl)很重的车轮。在汉代,杂技表演变成了很重要的娱乐项目,在宫殿宴席(palace banquet)上以及寻常百姓的庆祝场合中经常被观看。古代杂技代代相传。在1949年中华人民共和国成立之后,杂技迅猛发展。而今,已经有数不胜数的杂技团(acrobatic troupe),它们甚至经常被派出国表演。

选项

答案As early as in the Spring and Autumn Period, the art of acrobatics made its debut in China. The first type of acrobatics developed was strength acrobatics, with warriors whirling heavy wheels with their hands. In the Han Dynasty, acrobatic shows became important amusements frequently enjoyed at palace banquets as well as celebrations of the common people. Ancient acrobatics was handed down from generation to generation. After the founding of the PRC in 1949, acrobatics developed rapidly. Now, there are countless acrobatic troupes which are even sent abroad to perform.

解析 1.第一句中,“早在春秋时期”可译为as early as in the Spring and Autumn Period;翻译“在中国初次登场”时需要考虑将人称变化为its。
2.第二句中,需要注意“最早发展起来的杂技”中的“杂技”和“发展”之间是被动关系,需要用过去分词作后置定语,可以用the first type of acrobatics developed来表达。
3.第三句中,翻译“经常被观看”时可以借助过去分词作定语,以使句子简洁凝练,译为frequently enjoyed;“以及”可译为as well as。
4.第五句中,“中华人民共和国”可以用the PRC来表达。
5.第六句中,“数不胜数”可以用countless来表达;“它们甚至经常被派出国表演”可以用定语从句来表达,可译为which are even sent abroad to perform。
