2017下半年翻译考试中级口译模拟试题(55)

  【中译英】

  春节是我国民间最隆重、最热闹的一个传统节日。春节时,家家户户都要做充足的准备。节前十天左右,人们就开始忙碌着采购年货,为小孩子们添置新衣新帽,准备过年时穿。另外,节前人们会在家门口贴上红纸写成的春联,屋里张贴色彩鲜艳、寓意吉祥的年画,窗户上贴着窗花,门前挂上大红灯笼或贴“福” 字。“福”字还可以倒贴,路人一念福倒了,也就意味着福气到了。

  【参考译文】

  Spring Festival is the most solemn traditional festival in China bustling with noise and excitement. During the Spring Festival, everything was in a state of preparedness for every family. About ten days before the festival, people began busy preparing special purchases, including new clothes and shoes for the children to embrace the new year. What’s more, people begin decorating their rooms featuring an atmosphere of rejoicing and festivity, which include Spring Festival couplets on red paper pasted on the door panels, red paper-cuttings on window glass and brightly colored New Year paintings with auspicious meanings on the wall, as well as red lanterns or the Chinese character ‘Fu’ (meaning blessing or happiness) on the front door. The Chinese character ‘Fu’ can be pasted normally or upside down, signifying good futune because in Chinese the "reversed fu" is homophonic with "fu comes", both being pronounced as "fudaole."
