翻译与逻辑 一，从逻辑的角度判断译文是否合理与正确 1. Very little of our food, whether carbohydrate, fat or protein, is capable in its unaltered form of nourishing the body. 译文一：食物，不论是碳水化合物、脂肪或蛋白质，很少能以未经转化的状态营养身体。 译文二：食物中的各种成分，无论是碳水化合物、脂肪或蛋白质，都只有极少部分能以未经转化的形式向身体提供营养。 2. A man trying to see a single atom would be somewhat like a man trying to see a single drop of water in the ocean while flying many miles above it. He would see the results of a great many drops of water having come together. But he certainly would not be able to see a single drop water. 一个人要想看到单个原子，就有点像想在海洋上空许多英里外看到大海中单独的一滴水一样：他只能看到无数水滴汇成的一片汪洋，而绝不可能看到单独的一滴水。 3. We know from our experience that the hotter block will become cooler block and that the cooler block will become hotter. After a period of time, both blocks will have the same temperature. In this process, thermal energy is transformed from the hotter block to the cooler block. This transfer continues until a uniform temperature is reached, at which point no further energy transfer is possible. Nature always works this way. The spontaneous flow of heat always proceeds from a hotter object to a cooler object so that the temperature tends to become equalized; the reverse never happens. 译文一：自然界总是这样运动的。。。。。。。 译文二：传热过程一直延续到温度均衡。此时，热能不可能再传递了。传热规律总是这样地在起作用：热始终自发地从较热的物体流向较冷的物体，以致温度趋于相等；而相反的过程决不会发生。 4. (Do not touch the exhibits.)…… These objects, however, were different. Lined up against the wall, there were long thin wires attached to metal sphere. …… In the center of the hall, there were a number of tall structures which contained coloured lights. 5. We live in the ear of specilization. To really succeed, it is necessary to be an expert in one particular field. That leaves little chance for someone to become a well-rounded person. And a person who has good ability in several areas without being exceptional in any has little chance of real success. For the most part, the Renaissance Man is not to be found in our modern world. We are all poorer for it. 我们生活在一个专门化的时代。要想取得真
