2006年5月人事部三级笔译真题第一部分 英译汉Freed by warming, waters once locked beneath ice are gnawing at coastal settlements around the Arctic Circle. 译文： 在北极圈，由于气候变暖，冰层下的一些海域正在融化，困扰着沿岸的居民。 分析 1. Freed by warming, 这个不知道怎么翻译好， 分词作状语，我觉得是原因状语 Because waters free by warming, waters ……. Water 的复数指 海域 waters [plural] a large area of water, especially an ocean that is near or belongs to a particular country: The coastal waters of Alaska Korean/Mexican/Pacific etc waters The ship drifted into Turkish territorial waters. a species found in inland waters (=not the sea, but rivers, lakes etc) 4. gnawing： [only before noun] worrying or painful, especially for a long time: gnawing doubts …………………………………………………………………………………………….. 二： 原文：???

Permafrost 冻土 2. - permafrost – 加了标点，有点迷茫，这里是同位语呢，还是什么。我觉得冰不是冻土吧。但是要是并列意思也不用加标点吧 3. Thawing if ice or snow thaws, or if the sun thaws it, it turns into water 4. for those whose traditions rely on the ice-bound wilderness, the preservation of their culture. Those 后面是定语，定语不是太长，应该前置 这个句子，前面and后面应该是the preservation of their culture. 文化保护也受到了威胁。 And后面的句子是不是这样理解的 And the preservation of their culture for those whose traditions rely on the i
