中國目前擁有世界上最大最快的高速鐵路網(wǎng)。高鐵列車的運行速度還將繼續(xù)提升，更多的城市將修建高鐵站。高鐵大大縮短了人們出行的時間。相對飛機而言，高鐵列車的突出優(yōu)勢在于準時，因為基本不受天氣或者交通管制的影響。高鐵極大地改變了中國人的生活方式。如今，它已經(jīng)成為了很多人商務旅行的首選交通工具。越來越多的人也在假日乘高鐵外出旅游。還有不少年輕人選擇在一個城市工作而在鄰近城市居住，每天乘高鐵上下班。

本次翻譯難度較低，處理方式在上課時均有講解：

比如，難度較大的詞匯可以用解釋的方法來進行翻譯：鄰近城市（a city next to it），生活方式（way of life），準時（arrive on time）。

另外，一個句子中要注意不要出現(xiàn)兩個謂語。比如，“高鐵列車的運行速度還將繼續(xù)提升，更多的城市將修建高鐵站”。雖然中文的句子是用逗號連接的，但是在翻譯的時候，可以處理成兩個獨立的英文句子。The speed of high-speed trains will go on to be improved. More and more cities are building their high-speed railway stations.

最后，在翻譯成英文的時候，要注意被動語態(tài)的正確使用。還是剛才的那句話，中文是“運行速度還將繼續(xù)提升”，是一個主動的表達形式。但是在英文里，卻要用被動語態(tài)來說：The speed of high-speed trains will go on to be improved。

總之，只要課上所講到的技巧大家都熟練掌握了，翻譯部分得到12分左右應該是完全沒有問題的。而要追求近乎滿分的話，則對考生的中英文功底都會有較大的挑戰(zhàn)。
