  01

  皮影戏(shadow play)是中国最古老的戏剧之一。它起源于2000多年前的古长安,盛行于唐代和宋代。

  在中国古代,这是一个流行的民间戏曲形式,而且它是世界电影的祖先。当时,它就像现代的电影和电视一样给人们带来欢乐。

  表演者跟着音乐歌唱,同时控制着皮影工具。这些戏剧的内容更多是关于传统的历史戏画中。皮影戏是世界文化和艺术大家庭中的瑰宝。

 

  参考翻译:

  Shadow play is one of the oldest operas in China. It was rooted in ancient Chang'an over 2,000 years ago and prevailed in the Tang and Song Dynasty.

  It was a popular folk drama in ancient China and also the ancestor of films in the world. At that time, it brought people pleasure as modern movies and TVs do.

  Actors sing with the music, and control shadow tools at the same time.The contents of those plays are more about traditional historical dramas and fable stories. Shadow play is the treasure among the world's culture and art.

 

  难点点拨:

  1.它起源于2000多年前的古长安,盛行于唐代和宋代:“起源于”可译为be rooted in。“盛行于”可译为prevail in, prevail意为“盛行,流行”。

  2.当时,它就像现代的电影和电视一样给人们带来欢乐:“当时”可译为at that time 就像现代的电影和电视一样”可用as引导的从句来表示,即as modern movies and TVs do。“给人们带来欢乐”可译为bring people pleasure。

  3.表演者跟着音乐歌唱,同时控制着皮影工具:“跟着音乐歌唱”可译为sing with the music, with意为“跟着,随着”。“同时”可译为at the same time,还可译为meanwhile、in the meantime。“控制着皮影工具”中“控制”可译为control,常用短语为incontrol(控制中),out of control(失去控制)等。“皮影工具”则为shadow tools。

  皮影戏(shadow play), 一门古老的中国传统民间艺术,是世界上最早由人配音(dub )的活动影画艺术。

  这门古老的艺术流行范围极为广泛。千百年来,给祖祖辈辈的人带来了许多欢乐的时光。

  皮影戏所用的幕影原理,以及表演形式,对近代电影的发明和发展也起到了重要的先导作用。

  几年前,皮影戏被列入联合国教科文组织人类非物质文化遗产名录(UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage Lists)。

  

       参考翻译:

  Shadow play, an ancient traditional folk art in China, is the earliest art of motion shadow pictures dubbed by people in the world.

  This ancient art has been very popular. It has provided the Chinese people for generations with a lot of joyous time for thousands of years.

  The principle of curtain shade and ways of performance adopted by shadow play played an important leading role in the invention and development of the modern movies.

  Several years ago, shadow play was listed in the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage Lists.

  

       难点点拨:

  1.一门古老的中国传统民间艺术:该句中,中心词“艺术”前面一共有五个修饰词,为避免冗长、拖沓,可以微调一下语序,翻译为an ancient traditional folk art in China。

  2.流行范围极为广泛:就是指皮影戏这门古老的艺术“十分流行”,所以简洁地翻译为very popular即可,无需按照字面直译。

  3.祖祖辈辈的人:翻译为people for generations。“祖祖辈辈的”很难用一个形容词来表达,故转化为名词,译为for generations。

  4.起到了重要的先导作用:“先导”,即leading,所以翻译为play an important leading role in...
