【摘要】 本实践报告选取国外科普读物《树木的秘密》的数个章节为翻译材料,旨在以郭建中教授的“科普翻译四性观”——科学性、文学性、通俗性、趣味性为指导,分别从术语统一、逻辑缜密、四字格巧用、修辞传递、通俗表达、隐喻显现、幽默重现和口语增趣等多方面评注了翻译过程中遇到的难点和痛点。科学性是科普文本的首要特性,主要体现在术语严谨使用和缜密逻辑处理方面。科普是科学性与艺术性的统一,汉语成语和修辞能帮助提升译文的艺术性。科普作品追求以通俗易懂的方式传递科学技术知识,原文中影响理解的隐喻应适当显形。当原文作者出于趣味性考虑使用一些幽默口语的表达时,翻译中需要还原。本次实践报告发现,郭建中的科普翻译四性观能够指导译文的润色,提升译文质量。笔者还根据对四性观的具体应用,分析总结了译者在科普翻译中需具备的素养和一些具体操作方法,如科学性方面的翻阅专业词典和拆分长句;文学性方面的四字成语和修辞;通俗性方面的隐喻显形;趣味性方面的俏皮语气词和插入语。更多还原

【Abstract】 Popular science translation,especially the improvement of the translated version,is worth attention.Professor Guo Jianzhong’s “Four Characteristics of Popular Science Translation” provides effective conceptual support for the practice of popular science translation.This report selects several chapters of The Hidden Life of Trees as the source text,and aims to highlight such following features as scientificity,literariness,popularity,and interestingness in popular science translation.By commenting on the difficulties and essential elements encountered in the translation process at multiple levels,this report seeks to produce a translation that embodies these four characteristics.Scientificity is the primary characteristic of popular science texts,which is mainly reflected in the rigorous use of terms and careful logical processing.Popular science discourse is the unity of science and art.Chinese idioms and rhetoric devices can help to enhance the artfulness of translation.Popular science works seek to convey scientific and technological knowledge in an easily understandable way,so metaphors that affect understanding should be properly manifested and explained in translation.Some humorous expressions for the purpose of interestingness need to be retained in translation.This report finds that Guo Jianzhong’s Four Characteristics of Popular Science Translation can provide conceptual support for the improvement of translation.The thesis also analyzes and summarizes the necessary qualities of a popular science translator in his/her translating & revision process and some specific methods used in translating popular science works,such as consulting professional dictionaries and splitting long sentences,using four character idioms and rhetoric,making implicit metaphor explicit,and adding witty colloquial language and parentheses.更多还原
