    筆譯對口譯
    由于人們以為筆譯和口譯是完全不同的兩項活動,一個是書面活動,一個是口頭活動,因此就會產(chǎn)生一些問題。然而,其實兩者同是用接受語譯出與源語文本最接近且最自然的口頭或書面文本這一活動的一部分,兩者之間的重大差別包括口譯譯員必須迅速作出決定;必須高度緊張以跟上口語的高語速;必須具備能夠及時回憶起來的背景知識;敢于譯出可能不夠“完美”的譯文。事實上,口譯從來也不完美。
    但是,口譯工作能為筆譯譯者提供重要的有利條件,因為口譯直接迫使他跟上飛速前進的任何學科的最新發(fā)展,口譯還突出強調(diào),聽到一種語言而說出另一種語言在很大程度上是個自動的過程,而有些筆譯譯者未能認識到這一點。
    在莫斯科的原莫里斯•多烈士外語學院,已在筆譯方面顯示出卓越才能的翻譯家們可以接受這樣一項測試,看看他們是否也有能力成為專業(yè)的口譯譯員。測試包括指定一個話題,用一分鐘的時間做準備,然后用一分鐘的時間就這一話題講話,這類測試出于如下理由,認為口譯,無論交傳還是同傳,都在更大程度上取決于組織信息的能力而并非確定涵義的能力。
    Section B C-E Translation (15 points)
    From primary school to high school, what we have been studying is no more than some basic common knowledge. Even during the four years in college, the lectures given still contain some rather superficial knowledge only. People usually call university the “highest institution of learning”, which is likely to cause misunderstanding that as if there were no other knowledge above this level.Research done in the university is only the most preliminary stage of std and the first attempt at conducting research and the emphasis is on the methodology and practice of research. Since knowledge is infinite, one’s whole life is not long enough to gain knowledge. That’s why hoary-headed people in ancient times studied the classics, which means they continued to study even when their hair turned white with age. However, there is indeed great interest and fun in such kind of study.
