1. 同有着1000年历史的陕西戏曲秦腔相比,京剧显得年轻多了,只有200年的历史。但是京剧从老剧种中自由广泛地借鉴,再加上几代京剧艺人为追求艺术完美而做出的努力,使京剧成了我国最高雅、表现力最强的剧种之一。(选自高级口译2003年3月A卷)
模板句型1: Compared with Qin Qiang, the 1000-year-old Shanxi Opera, Peking Opera is a relatively young opera, with a history of only 200 years. But Peking Opera has benefited a lot by borrowing freely and extensively from old operas. This, coupled with the efforts of generations of Peking Opera performers in pursuit of artistic excellence, has made Peking Opera one of the most elegant and the most expressive operas in China.

模板句型精析:这是一个比较结构的句子。比较结构往往采用compared with这一短语,用分词开道。除此以外,两个模板句型都通过with将介词结构后置。另外,“再加上”一词在这里体现出了句子的并列结构,而且这里不是词与词的并列,而是句子与句子的并列。考生须特别注意两种模板句型中使用的模块词。模板句型1通过coupled with将原句的句子结构转化为词语结构,是“转性法”的活用;而模板句型2则通过in addition完成了句子的翻译。这是两种不同的处理方法,考生也可在具体长句翻译中交替使用,以加强表达的丰富性和多样性。
2. 京剧还赢得了很多外国戏迷的青睐。京剧的另一特色是所谓的脸谱,这使许多外国人着迷。京剧脸谱不同于西方人在化装舞会上戴的面具,是画在演员脸上的图案。京剧脸谱象征着人物的性格,不同的颜色表示不同的性格。例如:黑色代表刚直,白色代表背叛和狡诈,红色则常用来表示忠诚。(选自高级口译2003年3月A卷)
