英語專八翻譯的錯誤分析

摘  要：專八考試中的翻譯要求譯文要忠實原意，語言流暢。根據TEM-8的考試大綱和測試評分標準,論文從TEM-8歷年翻譯考試中誤譯的典型實例入手找出學生易出現的錯誤并對錯誤進行全面的分析。作者對英漢原文、參考答案、以及考生答卷進行分析比較發現考生在翻譯上存在的問題和不足。基于作者的實戰經驗和現有的相關資料和研究成果，得出英語專業學生誤譯的主要原因有以下幾點：英漢語基本功底薄弱, 出現詞義機械對等,濫用冠詞，用詞冗余，不符合漢語表達習慣等問題；對原文的理解能力差，導致譯文語篇銜接不當，信息重心模糊，不符合邏輯；相關背景知識欠缺，導致人名、作品等的誤譯。
 通過對專八翻譯試題的分析與研究，本文旨在找出學生翻譯上存在的不足，并從測試理論和翻譯理論的角度分析，以期獲得一些應對措施和方法，希望可以為致力于TEM-8考試的英語專業學生提供一些幫助。

The Error Analyses of Translation in TEM-8
Abstract: The translation of TEM-8 should be faithful to the original context with language fluency. According to examination syllabus of TEM-8 and test grading criteria, this article starts with several typical mistranslation examples in TEM-8 to find out the errors that students are prone to making, and makes a comprehensive analysis of these errors. The author analyzes the English original, the reference version, and compares them with the candidate's version to find shortcomings of candidates in TEM-8. Based on the author's practical experience, existing information and research results, the main reasons that English majors making error in translation are as follows: weak basic skills in English and Chinese, resulting several problems, such as: translating words literally, abusing articles, using words redundantly, and not meeting expressions of target language, and so on; poor understanding of the original text, resulting in improper translation cohesion, fuzzy information emphasis and illogical expressions; few related background knowledge, resulting the mistranslation of names, works, etc.
