英語翻譯的技巧和方法（三）

      上海翻譯公司是一家有資質(zhì)的翻譯公司，為大家整理了英語翻譯的技巧和方法之被動語態(tài)的譯法，希望能夠幫助到廣大譯員。

       一、大量的英語被動句要化成漢語的主動句 

　　1. He said the pact had now been reduced to less than a shadow. 

　　2. She had no knowledge of this and had not been consulted on these reported plans. 

　　3. What has just been written runs the risk of oversimplification. 

　　4. Many voices have been raised demanding the setting up of an Arab common market. 

　　二、以by為著眼點，進(jìn)行多種譯文 

　　1. But real influence is not built up by striking attitude or by throwing insults. 

　　2. Its sincerity is illustrated not only by its proposal but also by its deeds. 

　　3. What I like best are the stern cliffs, with ranges of mountains soaring behind them, full of possibilities, peaks to be scaled only by the most daring. 

　　4. Many expect that he will be outed by one of his rivals. 

　　5. He said he was assured by the State Department that the U.S. is willing to normalize relations with his country. 

　　三、“it + be + p.p. + that clause”的句型，常以下列形式表達(dá) 

　　1. It should be noted that he and she were academically more than just friends. 

　　2. It should be understood that to err is human. 

　　四、漢譯中需用被動式時，也最好多找一些字眼來取代“被”字 

　　1. The visitor was flattered and impressed. 

　　2. Everybody was fed up with her gossip. 

　　3. He was set upon by two naked men. 

　　4. If the expenditure is really necessary, the money can be found somehow. 

　　5. He was released immediately after Batista fled Cuba.
