　　“丝绸之路”这一话题属于中国历史文化。因此备考汉译英，多关注具有中国特色文化的话题，例如中国传统节日，中国园林园艺，中国戏曲艺术等。词汇方面该篇注意专有名词国家名，四大发明固定表达。句型方面注意强调句”It is(was)… that… “的结构。

翻译三：中国园林

　　【翻译原文】
　　中国园林是经过三千多年演变而成的独具一格的园林景观。它既包括为皇室成员享乐而建造的大型花园，也包括学者、商人和卸任的政府官员为摆脱嘈杂的外部世界而建造的私家花园。这些花园构成了一种意在表达人与自然之间应有的和谐关系的微缩景观。典型的中国园林四周有围墙，园内有池塘、假山、树木、花草以及各种各样由蜿蜒的小路和走廊连接的建筑。漫步在花园中，人们可以看到一系列精心设计的景观犹如山水画卷一般展现在面前。

　　【参考译文一】
　　After 3,000 years of evolvement, Chinese gardens have become a unique landscape. This includes both large gardens built as entertainment venues for royal family, and private gardens built as secluded retreats for scholars, merchants and retired government officials. These gardens have constituted a miniature that is designed in praise of the harmony between man and nature. A typical Chinese garden is surrounded by walls and consists of various buildings linked by winding trails and corridors, with ponds, rockeries, trees, and flowers scattered in it. Wandering in such a well-designed garden, people may feel that they are walking in a landscape painting.
　　【翻译点评】
　　六级翻译改革后，需要考生增加对中国传统文化这一话题的多多关注，本文选取中国园林为主题，难度有些大，且不少地方如直接采用直译会显得生硬，所以建议考生在理解原文的基础上增加意译的使用。为了备考汉译英，考生可以从平时开始就积累一些词汇和句式结构，只有充分准备后方能在考场上更加发挥自如。
