2017下半年翻译考试中级口译模拟试题(44)

  【中译英】

  说起上海老城,总会让人和古老传统的东西联系起来,比如明代的豫园和清代的城隍庙。上海建城有700多年历史,但最具人文发展历史的时期是开埠后的150年间,诸如华洋杂居、石库门、老字号等等,都发生在开埠后的上海。

  流传于老城内外的民间文化,丰富多彩。著名的“上海老城人物风情画卷”生动地描绘了上海老城市民的生活百态。上海老城市历史文明与现代文明的兼容并蓄,无论上海城市发展如何日新月异,她仍将记录着上海城市发展的历史华章。

  【参考译文】

  The old town of Shanghai, when it is mentioned, is always associated with the past and the tradition, something such as the Yuyuan Garden in the Ming Dynasty and the Town God’s Temple (or the City God Temple / Chenghuangmiao) in the Qing Dynasty. Despite a history of more than 700 years, it is the 150 years since its opening to foreign trades that enjoyed the most spelendid/ greatest humane development of Shanghai. During that period, scenes appeared such as the co-inhabitation of Chinese foreigners, the building of Shikumen, and the growth of time-honored firms.

  Various and colorful folk cultures have gained popularity in and out of Shanghai’s old town, which has been proved in the famous “The Painting Scroll of Local Residents in Shanghai’s Old Town”, a vivid depiction of the lives of local residents in every aspect. Despite the ever-changing advances of Shanghai, its old town, an inclusive combination of ancient and modern civilization, will still serve as a glorious chapter in the history of the development of Shanghai city.
