翻译讲解
1.全球重要的国际金融、服务业及航运中心:本句的关键词是“中心”,这类罗列型的句子一般用of结构来翻译。
2.原产地:可译为original place,这里的original意为“原始的,最初的”。original是翻译时的常用词,还有“独创的,新颖的”之意,例如,original style独特的风格,original idea别出心裁的主意。
3.著名景点海洋公园是一座亚洲最大的、具有现代设施和多种娱乐项目的海洋博物馆:这句的修饰语很长,这样的句子翻译时要合理安排句子结构,避免一味罗列。
4.特色景点和经典童话人物:可译为distinct scenic spots and classic fairytale characters。
