【逐句解析】

译句1 牡丹花色艳丽，形象高雅，象征着和平与繁荣，因而在中国被称为“花中之王”。

解析：本句翻译的关键在于找到句子主干，主语是牡丹花，谓语是象征，本句子可以把花色艳丽，形象高雅处理成插入语。

译文1 Peony,which features bright colour and graceful shape,symbolizes peace and prosperity and is thus well recognized as “kings of flowers”.

译句2中国许多地方都培育和种植牡丹。

解析:英语多被动，汉语多主动。可将原文转换成被动且以物作主语。

译文2 peonies are cultivated and grown in many places of China.

译句3千百年来，创造了许多诗歌和绘画赞美牡丹。

解析：同样将原文转换为被动，创造诗歌的目的是为了赞美，所以用不定式。

译文3 For thousands of years,a great number of poems and paintings have been produced to praise the flower.

译句4唐代时期，牡丹在皇家园林普遍种植并被誉为国花，因而特别风行。

解析：该句翻译的难点是将后半句“因而特别风行”转换为定语从句结构，先行词是“国花”。

译文4 In the Tang Dynasty,peonies were planted so widely in the royal gardens as “the national flower”that they enjoyed great popularity across the country.

译句5十世纪时，洛阳古城成为牡丹栽培中心，而且这一地位一直保持到今天。

解析：该句翻译时可处理成省略what的主语从句，谓语动词为has remain.

译文5 In the 10th century,the ancient city of Luoyang became the centre of peony planting,and has remained as such since then.

译句6现在成千上万的国内游客蜂拥到洛阳参加一年一度的牡丹节，欣赏洛阳牡丹的独特之美，同时探索九朝古都的历史。

解析：本句主要考查when引导的时间状语从句的用法，如下。

译文6 Nowadays,hundreds of thousands of domestic tourists pour in Luoyang for the annual peony festival,when they can both appreciate the unique beauty of the flowers and explore the history of the city which is known as the capital of sis dynamics.

It is often used to represent people’s noble virtues so that it has become significant themes for poets and painters throughout the Chinese history. Meanwhile, the places where lotus blooms always attracts many photographers to take photos.

【翻译解析】

一.段落整体

其一，整个段落都在介绍荷花的特征，功能，品质以及象征意义，所以总体采用一般现在时。但是段落末尾提到了荷花“历来”是诗人画家创作的重要题材，“历来”一词决定，广大考生需要考虑时态的变化，所以该句应使用现在完成时来翻译比较妥当。其二，全段“荷花”重复较多，但依据英汉两种语言的差异，汉译英时需要考虑英文的简洁性，采用代词代替荷花。

二.词句翻译

该段落中有很多词语，面对这些词语的翻译，广大考生翻译时切忌生搬硬套，中英文两种语言在翻译过程中不可能做到完全的对等，只需尽可能做到忠实和通顺即可。所以在翻译成语时可采用意译的方式。

① 色彩鲜艳 bright color

② 绿化水面 make water surface green

③ 美化庭园 beautify courtyards

④ 净化水质、减少污染、改善环境 (动宾形式呈现)

purify water, reduce pollution and improve environment

⑤ 迎骄阳而不惧，出污泥而不染

该句意为“不害怕炽烈的阳光，从污泥中长出却保持洁净。”所以大家只需译出基本含义即可，not fearing the blazing sun and keeping clean in the dirty soil

总结而言，今年的六级翻译难度与往年相差不大。在大学英语六级翻译保留了之前的出题风格及翻译类型，所选择的题材仍然与中国的传统文化相关，并且还是汉译英的翻译。六级翻译考试原文中介绍了三种花的由来、特点及地位，其历史文化渊源及现实意义，生动地再现了花类文化元素的魅力。
