2012考研英语二翻译原文

Section III Translation

When people in developing countries worry about migration, they are usually concerned at the prospect of their best and brightest departure to Silicon Valley or to hospitals and universities in the developed world. These are the kind of workers that countries like Britain, Canada and Australia try to attract by using immigration rules that privilege college graduates.

Lots of studies have found that well-educated people from developing countries are particularly likely to emigrate. A big survey of Indian households in 2004 found that nearly 40% of emigrants had more than a high-school education, compared with around 3.3% of all Indians over the age 25. This “brain drain” has long bothered policymakers in poor countries. They fear that it hurts their economies, depriving them of much-needed skilled workers who could have taught at their universities, worked in their hospitals and come up with clever new products for their factories to make.

参考译文与得分要点

  1. 46请将上方短文翻译成中文。

    参考译文当发展中国家的人们担心移民问题时,他们通常担心的是本国最优秀、最聪明的人才前往硅谷,或是发达国家的医院和大学。英国、加拿大和澳大利亚等国正是通过优待大学毕业生的移民规则,试图吸引这类工作者。

    大量研究发现,来自发展中国家的受过良好教育的人特别容易移民。2004年一项针对印度家庭的大型调查发现,近40%的移民受过高中以上教育,而25岁以上全体印度人中这一比例约为3.3%。这种“人才流失”长期以来一直困扰着贫穷国家的决策者。他们担心这会损害本国经济,使其失去急需的熟练工人,而这些人本可以在本国大学任教、在医院工作,并为工厂想出巧妙的新产品。

    解析先抓主干:首段 people worry...concerned at the prospect of...,后接 These are the kind of workers that... 定语从句;次段 studies have found that...,再接调查对比与 They fear that it hurts...depriving them of...。难词:prospect 宜作“前景/可能”,privilege 动词译“优待”,brain drain 固定为“人才流失”。参考答案拆长定语、被动转陈述,并把 who could have taught... 后置为“这些人本可以……”,增补“本国”。易失分点:漏译优待大学毕业生的规则逻辑、departure 只译“离开”不点人才外流、40%与3.3%对比不清、三个并列动作漏译或语序乱。
