2020年12月英語四級翻譯答案試卷一：餐桌上的魚文化

【試題】

魚是春節(jié)前夕餐桌上不可或缺的一道菜，因為漢語中“魚”字的發(fā)音與“余”字的發(fā)音相同。正由于這個象征性的意義，春節(jié)期間魚也作為禮物送給親戚朋友。魚的象征意義據說源于中國傳統(tǒng)文化。中國人有節(jié)省的傳統(tǒng)，他們認為節(jié)省得愈多，就感到愈為安全。今天，盡管人們愈來愈富裕了，但他們仍然認為節(jié)省是一種值得弘揚的美德。

【譯文】

Fish is an indispensable dish on the table before the Spring Festival, because the pronunciation of “fish” in Chinese is the same as that of“Yu”(which means abundance). Because of this symbolic significance, fish are also given as gifts to relatives and friends during the Spring Festival. It is said that the symbolic meaning of fish derived from Chinese traditional culture. The Chinese have a tradition of saving, and they think that the more you save, the safer you feel. Today, although people are getting richer and richer, they still think that saving is a virtue worth carrying forward.

2020年12月英語四級翻譯答案試卷二：春節(jié)團圓飯

【試題】：春節(jié)前夕吃團圓飯是中國人的傳統(tǒng)。團圓飯是一年中最重要的晚餐，也是家庭團聚的最佳時機，家人生活在不同地方的家庭尤其如此。團圓飯上的菜肴豐富多樣，其中有些菜肴有特殊含義。例如，魚是不可缺少的一道菜，因為漢語中的“魚”字和“余”字聽上去一樣。在中國的許多地方，餃子也是一道重要的佳肴，因為餃子象征著財富和好運。

譯文：It is a tradition for Chinese to have the reunion meal on the Spring Festival Eve, which is not only the most important dinner in a year, but the best opportunity for family reunion as well, especially for those families whose members live apart from each other. The selections for dishes at a family reunion dinner are plentiful, some of which have special meanings. For example, fish is an indispensable dish, just because the Chinese character “fish” is pronounced in the same way as “abundant”. In many places in China, dumpling is also considered an important delicacy for its symbolic meaning of fortune and good luck.
