【摘要】 本翻译实践的材料选自《落基山脉隐藏的秘密:山地生态系统的神奇生命》第六章“高山平原”。本章介绍了高山苔原,主要内容包括高山苔原上岩石演化为土壤的过程、岩石在水和闪电的作用下发生的变化、冻原植物和动物的生存策略。鼠兔、土拨鼠等动物生活在落基山国家公园的高山苔原区,我国青藏高原地区也生活着鼠兔与土拨鼠,本次翻译实践可以为我国鼠兔和土拨鼠的相关研究提供参考,也有助于加深读者对苔原的认识。本翻译材料属于科普类文本。根据科普文的文本特点,笔者选择将目的论作为本次翻译实践的指导理论。在翻译过程中,遇到的难点可以分为词汇层面、句法层面、语篇层面。笔者在每个层面都使用了不同的翻译技巧来进行翻译。在词汇层面,使用了词义引申和词性转换的翻译技巧。在句法层面,使用了短句合并、长句拆分、调整语序等翻译技巧。在语篇层面,笔者在译文中增加了逻辑词,使语篇衔接得更加紧密。本次翻译实践,不仅丰富了笔者的高山苔原知识储备,而且使笔者掌握了更多的翻译技巧。本次翻译实践提高了笔者解决问题的能力,为日后的翻译工作打下了坚实的基础。此外,本翻译实践报告可以为研究苔原与山地生态系统的学者、对此领域感兴趣的读者、翻译相关领域文本的译者提供帮助。
【Abstract】 The translation practice is based on Chapter Six "Alpine Flats" of Something Hidden in the Ranges:The Secret Life of Mountain Ecosystems.This chapter introduces the alpine tundra,mainly including the process of rock changing into soil on the alpine tundra,the change of rock under the action of water and lightning,as well as the survival strategies of tundra plants and animals.Pikas,marmots and other animals inhabit the alpine tundra of Rocky Mountain National Park,while the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau of China is also the habitat of pikas and marmots.This translation practice not only provides a reference for the relevant research of pikas and marmots in China,but helps readers deepen their understanding of tundra.This translation material is a popular science text.According to the characteristics of the popular science text,skopos theory is adopted as the guiding theory.In the process of translation,the difficulties encountered can be divided into lexical level,syntactic level and textual level.The translator uses different translation skills at each level.At the lexical level,extension and conversion in part of speech are used.At the syntactic level,sentence splitting and reconstructing are adopted.At the textual level,the translator adds logical words to the translation to make the text more cohesive.This translation practice not only enriches the translator’s knowledge in alpine tundra,but also helps the translator master more translation skills.This translation practice improves the translator’s ability to solve problems,and lays a solid foundation for the translation work in the future.This translation practice report can provide help for scholars studying tundra and mountain ecosystems,readers interested in the fields,as well as translators who translate texts of the fields.
