一、原文:
①Some sites design their agents to tempt job hunters to return.②When CareerSite’s agent sends out messages to those who have signed up for its service,for example,it includes only three potential jobs—those it considers the best matches.③There may be more matches in the database;job hunters will have to visit the site again to find them—and they do.④“On the day after we send our messages,we see a sharp increase in our traffic,”says Seth Peets,vice president of marketing for CareerSite.
話題:線上找工作
二、步驟
1.分意群(根據(jù)標(biāo)志詞分意群:標(biāo)點(diǎn)前、連詞前、介詞前、動(dòng)詞前)
2.定屬性(根據(jù)意群的相對(duì)位置定屬性:連接詞后是“從句”)
3.調(diào)語序(根據(jù)屬性調(diào)整意群的語序:定語提前或名詞反復(fù)說兩遍、狀語提前)
4.理翻譯(根據(jù)調(diào)整后的語序調(diào)整翻譯:結(jié)合語境和單詞感覺,調(diào)整措辭和翻譯)
三、演練
1.分意群When CareerSite’s agent/sends out messages/to those/who have signed up for its service/,for example/,it includes only three potential jobs/—those/it considers/the best matches.
2.定屬性:
①those+who從句;who連接的從句為定語從句/修飾前面的代詞;
those(who have signed up for its service)
?、趙hen從句,主句;when從句為狀語從句
?。╓hen CareerSite’s agent/sends out messages/to those/who have signed up for its service/,for example/),it includes only three potential jobs/—those/it considers/the best matches.
③those/it considers/the best matches;代詞those和it同時(shí)出現(xiàn),it后面還有動(dòng)詞consider,則從it開始是一個(gè)省略that的定語從句those(that it considers/the best matches)
3.調(diào)語序:
?、賢hat連接的從句翻譯在名詞之前,翻譯成“...的”;
?。╳ho have signed up for its service)those翻譯成“...的那些(人)”
?、踭hat連接的從句翻譯在名詞之前,翻譯成“...的”
?。╰hat it considers/the best matches)those翻譯成“...的那些(匹配職位)”
4.理翻譯:
難點(diǎn):match
match有“配對(duì)、匹配”的意思,這里具體指的是破折號(hào)前面“匹配的崗位”
四、理解
全句翻譯:比如,當(dāng)CareerSite’s agent給那些注冊(cè)了它們網(wǎng)站服務(wù)的客戶發(fā)送信息的時(shí)候,它只會(huì)發(fā)送三個(gè)潛在的崗位--那些它認(rèn)為最匹配的崗位
