从最近几年的英语四级翻译真题中我们不难看出,英语四级翻译目前考察的方向多偏向于社会经济、文化等方面,日常复习中我们也要储备一些常考话题材料。下面®文档大全网英语四级频道为大家整理了英语四级翻译练习题库,希望对大家的备考有帮助。
请将下面这段话翻译成英文:
*婚(down-to-earth marriage )是一种新的结婚方式,指的是一对恋人没有房子、没有车、不办婚礼、不度蜜月甚至没有婚戒,只领取结婚证(marriage certificate)的结婚方式。这种形式的结婚最低成本只有9元钱。现代年轻人的生活压力较大,而且强调爱情的独立,必须有房再结婚或者大肆操办婚事的传统在年轻一代中被削弱。许多人都相信*婚是两个人纯粹爱情的见证。
参考翻译:
As a new way of getting married, down-to-earthmarriage means that a couple marries each other byonly applying for a marriage certificate without anapartment, a car, a wedding ceremony, ahoneymoon, or even a wedding ring. This form of marriage can cost as little as only nine yuan.As young people in modern times live under great pressure and place emphasis on theindependence of love, the tradition that “an apartment is a must for marriage” and “weddingceremony should be held on a grand scale” has weakened among the young generation. Manypeople believe that a down-to-earth marriage is a testament to the pure love between thecouple.
