英语六级翻译技巧解析:打车难

时间: 楚欣2 翻译

  参考译文:

  It has been a common problem in large city residents' life that it's hard to take a taxi. The increase of urban population and diversification of social activities make the demand for taxi rise. As the traffic jam becomes worse in cities,to guarantee personal income, many taxi drivers refuse to drive on busy roads and main urban areas, which makes it difficult for many citizens to take a taxi near some transportation junctions, commercial centers and hospitals. City construction affects the efficiency of taxi. Being not standard in the taxi industry and taxi drivers' often refusing to take passengers are the human factors that make it difficult to take a taxi.

  词句点拨

  1.打车难:可译为it's hard to take a taxi,作为problem的同位语,意义表达清楚自然。

  2.增加了对出租车的需求:可译为make the demand for taxi rise。

  3.为避免堵车影响收入:可灵活地译为to guarantee personal income。采用逆向译法,上下文反复出现“堵车”这个词,所以可以省略。

  4.出租车行业不规范,拒载行为屡屡发生:这里是说明原因,为了句式简明,可以处理为动名词和独立主格的形式,直接充当句子主语。

  5.人为因素:可译为human factor。
