The practice report is based on an English book named China's Economy:A Collection of Surveys.The report mainly talks about the problems in the process of translation and corresponding translation methods.Long and complicated sentences are defined as the focus of the practice report.The first one is complex sentence structure,including long coordinate sentences,long complex sentences,and long compound-complex sentences.The second one is many modifiers,including prepositional phrases and participial phrases.The third one is discontinuous structure,including the separation between subject and predicate verbs,and other forms of separation.The huge difference between English and Chinese is that English focuses on hypotaxis with the emphasis at the front of the sentence while Chinese focuses on parataxis with the emphasis at the end of the sentence.Besides,English presents tree structure and Chinese is bamboo structure.Based on the above-described translation problems and previous translation methods,the author finds out the specific solutions to translation of long and complicated sentences.The author uses linear translation,inverse translation and synthetic translation to translate long coordinate sentences,long complex sentences,and long compound-complex sentences,uses conversion translation and syncopation to translate prepositional phrases and participial phrases and uses reorganization,and amplification and omission to translate the separation between subject and predicate verbs,and other forms of separation.From this report,the author believes that as a qualified translator,you should obtain flexible strategies and reappear the meaning of original texts by combining previous knowledge.
