Therefore his father very gladly gave him the name: Zhongshu (=book lover).,词的选择,1、确定词义他的英语水平比我的高。 He knows more English than I. 各级领导干部必须提高领导水平。Governors at all levels should improve their art of leadership. 要奋发图强，把我军的军政素质提高到一个新的水平。We must work hard to raise the military and political quality of our army to a new height.,2、表达得体,(1） 注意词的广义与狭义英语中有不少同义词的词义有广、狭之区别，运用范围也就各不相同。例如：农业是国民经济的基础。Agriculture is the foundation of the national economy.农林牧副渔结合的方针the principle of combining farming, forestry, animal husbandry, side-occupations and fishery.他从不喝酒。He never touches alcohol.原文“酒”是指一切酒类，但如果表示葡萄酒应译作 wine，表示烈性酒又需译作spirit。,（2） 注意词的语体色彩同义词之间的差别，不仅表现在词义方面，而且也表现在语体色彩方面，例如：别了，司徒雷登Farewell, Leighton Stuart!译文选用了farewell一词。若用goodbye,则不能表现出原文所具有的特殊语气和轻蔑口吻。禁止赌博。Gambling is prohibited.原文“禁止”的语体色彩较为正式，故译作prohibit. （对比ban，forbid）这小伙子干活真带劲。This young fellow does his work with vim.这里的“带劲”是口语体，译者注意了这一点，相应地也用了口语词vim表达。（对比vigor）,（3） 注意词的政治含义“农民”：peasant 和farmer都可以和汉语的“农民”或“农夫”相对应。但是这个词的含义却有差别。Farmer本指农场的经营者或所有者。现在也可指以耕种为目的而租入土地的人。Peasant指住在农村中的小农和以耕种土地为生的劳动者。英美国家常用farmer指一般农民，而我们常用peasant指一般农民，并与landlord相对而言。“侵略”：invasion 和aggression都是汉语“侵略”的对应词。Invasion指军事入侵，而aggression的含义范围较广，可指政治、军事、经济、文化各方面。打得赢就打，打不赢就走。Fight when you can win, move away when you cannot.比较：Fight when you can win, run away when you cannot.,（4） 注意词的搭配汉英两种语言在长期使用过程中形成了各自的固定词组和搭配用法，翻译时必须注意两者的不同，不能把汉语词的搭配用法生搬硬套到英语译文中。例如：战火扩大：the flames of war expand (应为spread)实现自给自足：achieve self-sufficiency (应为reach)严密控制：close control (应为strict/rigid)强硬政策：strong policy (应为tough),1. 我们找个安静点的地方好好聊聊。Lets find a quiet place where we can have a good talk.
