3）他走进房间，向四周看了看，露出了笑容

He entered the room, had a look around and smiled.

4）我转身走出了房间。

I turned away and walked out of the room.

Turning away, I walked out of the room.

3. 如果这样的连动句太长，连动项较多，也可以采用分译法，将原句拆分成若干个独立的句子来翻译。例如：

5）他站起来跟我们打招呼，闻了闻香喷喷的饼和热腾腾的汤，连连说：“好！很好！”

He stood up to greet us and sniffed the delicious cakes and steaming soup. He kept saying: "Good! Very good!"

6）这个犯罪团伙，持枪劫车，杀人越货，真是罪大恶极

The band of criminal gunmen hijacked trucks, killed drivers and looted the goods. Even death cannot alone for their offense.

二、表主从关系

1. 如果连用的动词中，后一动作是前一动作的目的，通常把表示目的的动词译成不定式或介词短语，而将前面表示手段的动词译成谓语。例如：

7）他连忙撑起伞挡雨。

He quickly opened the umbrella to keep off the rain.

8）他们去北京出差了。

They have gone to Beijing on business.

2. 如果两个动作伴随发生，其中一个动词表示另一动作的方式，或是作为另一动作的陪衬。通常将表示“方式”或“伴随”的动词译成分词短语，而另一个动作则作为主要动词翻译成谓语。例如：

9）我躺在！读小说。

Lying in the bed, I was reading a novel.

2）他笑着走进大厅。

He came in the hall, laughing.

3. 如果连用的动词之间具有因果关系，通常把表示原因的动词译成分词短语或介词短语，把另一动词译成谓语动词。例如：

1）这家公司经营不善破产了

This company went bankrupt because of poor management.

2）白天鹅受惊飞走了。

Being scared, the swan flew away.
