问题    老头儿说我的毛病又太盛。又说,若对手盛;则以柔化之。可要在化的同时,造成克势,柔不是弱,是容,是收,是含。含而化之,让对手入你的势。这势要你造,需要无为而无不为。无为即是道,也就是棋运之大可不变,你想变,就不是象棋,输不用说了,连棋边儿都沾不上。棋运不可悖,但每局的势要自己造,棋运和势即有,那可就无所不为了。玄是真玄,可细琢磨,是那么个理儿。

选项

答案 The old man said that what was wrong with me was that I was too keen to win. Then he told me that if my opponent was too eager to win I should use soft methods to transform him. While I was transforming him I should be setting up the situation in which to defeat him. Softness isn’t weakness. It’s containing, drawing in, holding. By holding and transforming your opponent you draw him into the strategy you’re setting up. To create this strategic situation you do everything by forcing nothing. Forcing nothing is the way. It’s also the unchangeable nature of chess. Try to change it and it won’t be chess. You won’t just lose; You won’t be able to play at all. You can’t go against the nature of chess, but you have to creat your own strategy in every game you play. Once you’ve sorted out both the nature of chess itself and your own strategy there’s nothing you can’t do. It really is mysterious,but if you think it over carefully you’ll find it’s true.

解析 对待深奥的古文,可以用简单易懂的当代英语把文中诸多的术语及其所包含的深奥道理讲得清清楚楚。“老头儿说我的毛病又太盛”可意译,以及增译为“too keen to win”,“柔不是弱,是容,是收,是含”,译成“softness isn’t weakness.It’s containing,drawing in,holding,”和原文的流畅性保持一致;“你想变,就不是象棋,输不用说了,连棋边儿都沾不上”译为“Try to change it and it won’t be chess.You won’t just lose;you won’t be able to play at all,”尽量使译文保持原文的节奏与速度。
