问题     中国一直有重视教育的传统，尤其是儿童的教育。许多家长让孩子参加各种培训班，以增加被理想中国录取的可能性。但专家们指出，保持儿童对科学的好奇和兴趣有助于其智力发展。一个没有创造力和想象力的儿童很难有所作为。
选项
答案The Chinese have traditionally attached importance to education, especially the education of children. Many parents have their children attend various training courses to increase their chance of being admitted to the ideal high schools. Experts, however, point out that keeping children curious about and interested in science will facilitate their intellectual development. A child without any creativity and imagination(An unimaginative and uncreative child)can hardly go very far．
解析     1．“有……的传统”可以直译为have the tradition of...，也可意译为traditionally，类似的有habitually、customarily、conventionally、typically等等。
    2．“重视”可翻译为：
    pay an enormous amount of attention to
    attach importance to
    lay emphasis on
    give much weight to
    give priority to
    highlight
    3．“增加被理想学校录取的可能性”可能是本段最难翻译的部分。学生可能首先想到possibility，翻译为increase the possibility to be admitted by...。此翻译方式不符合习惯用法，理由是possibility往往接of doing...，而不是to do。可接受的译法是increase the possibility of the child being admitted to...。但是，也不能翻译成make it more possible for somebody to do...或make it more likely for somebody to do...，都是蹩脚的表达，但可说so that the child is more likely to be admitted to...。使用chance的“可能性”意义时，最好不要接不定式，常用the chance of doing，也可用odds或prospect表示“可能”。
    4．翻译“对科学的好奇和兴趣”时，要注意介词：
    be curious about...
    our curiosity of/about/on...
    be interested in...
    our interest in...
    由于要求的介词不同，第一个介词不能省略，或是...curious about and interested in...或是curiosity of and interest in...。类似的有our dependence on and love of nature或their indifference to and prejudice against the colored。
    5．“很难有所作为”可灵活翻译。呵接受的译法有：
    be hardly promising
    can’t be a high-achiever
    can hardly become outstanding
    have difficulty(trouble)achieving much success
