问题     传统的中国音乐可以追溯到7 000到8 000年前,这基于对一只新石器时代(the Neolithic Age)骨头做成的笛子(flute)的发现。在夏商周时期,只有皇家和达官显贵(dignitary officials)才能享受发自编钟(chime)和铜铃的音乐。在唐朝,舞蹈和唱歌进入了主流,从宫廷蔓延到了寻常人家。伴随着诸如佛教和伊斯兰教(Buddhism and Islam)等异国宗教的引入,中国音乐吸收了宗教旋律,并且在宗教庙宇所举办的集会中被中国人所欣赏。

选项

答案 Traditional Chinese music can be traced back to 7,000 - 8,000 years ago based on the discovery of a bone flute made in the Neolithic Age. In the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, only royal families and dignitary officials could enjoy music made on chimes and bells. During the Tang Dynasty, dancing and singing entered the mainstream, spreading from the royal court to the common people. With the introduction of foreign religions such as Buddhism and Islam, religious melodies were absorbed into Chinese music and were enjoyed by the Chinese people at fairs organized by religious temples.

解析 1.第一句中,“追溯到”还可译为date back to;“这基于”可以处理为过去分词结构作状语,译为based on,还可以译为非限制性定语从句,即whichis based on…;“骨头做成的笛子”可以直接译为a bone flute,也可以译为a flute made of bone。
2.第二句中,“发自编钟和铜铃的”还可以用非限制性定语从句来表达,译为which was made on chimes and bells。
3.第三句中,“进入了主流”可译为entered the mainstream。
4.第四句中,“伴随着”可以用with…来表达;“宗教庙宇所举办的集会”可以用fairs organized by religious temples来表达。
