1、英汉翻译辅导英译汉试题总结 总共四或五句话, 平均字数112，往往有30个单词以上，甚至40个50个单词的长句子和复杂句子。 翻译过程中，这些句子往往名词化倾向非常明显，要启用“静态语势动态语势”的思路。丢分 1. 可能会有生词，或者一词多义时，选择词义错误。错一词，丢0.5分。 2. 句子结构太复杂而分析不清。 这一点最危险。如果整个句子理解错误，则可能丢掉整个句子的分数。如果总分10分分散在5句话中，则会丢失2分。 但是不仅如此，往往一个句子理解错，剩下的句子也会出现失误。则丢分更可怕。与语法有关的误译 1. 冠词在固定词组中的含义有所不同。 At a crossroads 在一个十字路口
