中級筆譯:十秒鐘翻譯訓(xùn)練37

字號:

I have thought about her often over the years and how she struggled in a society that places an incredible premium on looks, class, wealth and all the other fineries of life. She suffered from a disfigurement that cannot be made to look attractive. I know that her condition hurt her deeply. 不過她有種獨特的敏感與美麗,與外表完全無關(guān)。
    單詞提示:
    finery n. 漂亮;
    disfigurement n.毀容
    答案:
    And yet there were a sensitivity and a beauty to her that had nothing to do with looks.
    本句節(jié)選自《Beauty》
    總結(jié):
    1. 這期題目里有個 have nothing to do with 的短語發(fā)現(xiàn)大家都用在了句子里,用來表達與……無關(guān)。
    2. 原文中沒有譯出"獨特的"這個詞, 我們翻譯的時候可以譯為distinctive, unique, 有許多人用了 special 也基本上表達出了題目的意思.
