一、顺译法
顾名思义，这种方法是指按所听到的原句的顺序，把整个句子分割成若干个意义单位或信息单位逐一译出，再用增补，删减等手段把这些单位自然衔接，形成完整的意思。顺译法能够减轻记忆负担，便于及时处理信息，因而是口译者及考生的首选良策。

例1
It is indeed a pleasure [1]/to stand before the Assembly [2]/ and extend to you, Sir, [3]/in the name of my country,[4]/my most sincere congratulations[5]/ on your election [6]/as president of the present session of the General Assembly [7]./
参考译文：
的确非常愉快[1]，能够站在大会前面[2]，向阁下先生转达[3]，以我国家的名义转达[4]，我最真诚的祝贺[5]，祝贺您当选本届联合国大会的主席[6]。

例2
“十五”期间[1]/，上海将形成[2]/一批支柱和优势企业[3]/，形成一批拳头产品[4]/形成一个创新开发机制[5]/，形成一支优秀企业家队伍[6]。
参考译文：
During the period of the Tenth Five-Year Plan [1], Shanghai will set up[2] a number of backbone and flagship enterprises[3], develop a series of knockout products[4], create a mechanism for innovation and development[5], and bring us a troop of outstanding entrepreneurs[6].

二、重组法：
如果两种语言的表达模式不一致，运用顺译法便会显得牵强别扭，这时则宜采用重组法。具体说来，就是抓住原语中的信息点，根据目标语的思维方式和表达习惯重新组织和安排信息，译出原语真正要体现的内容和情感。

例1
Nothing inspired us more [1] as we watched the breathtaking performance of the gymnasts [2]/ than the final jump of Kelly [3]/ that put the American girls on the champion’s stand [4].
参考译文：
当我们观看体操运动员惊心动魄的表演时[2]/，最鼓舞我们的莫过于凯利的最后一跳[1]+[3]/，因为这一跳使得美国女孩们登上了冠军的领奖台[4]/。

例2
在美丽的金秋时节[1]/，我很高兴[2]/，能在古老又充满现代活力的[3]/的古都西安[4]/，迎来[5]/参加“2001中国西部论坛”的[6]/各位嘉宾[7]。/
参考译文：
In this beautiful golden fall [1], I am very happy [2] to welcome [5] the distinguished guests [7] to China West Forum 2001 [6] in the ancient capital Xi’an [4], an age-old and mysterious city full of dynamism of the modern era [3].
