The May 4th Movement
Taking place on May 4th, 1919 in Peking, the patriotic May 4th Movement,
conducted mainlyby the young students, quickly became a nation-wide
revolutionary movement. For the firsttime, the Chinese working class was
awakened as an independent force in the political stage. Today, the May 4th
Movement as a glorious page has been included in the annals of theChinese
nation. The May 4th Movement is much more than a historical case; it is a
spiritshowing the young people's concern about the future and destiny of the
country,andmanifesting the young people's responsibility and mission as well as
their fiery love towards thenation.
1.发生于…并转变成…:原文中句子较长，且修饰语很多，但前后句的主语统一，所以在翻译时可将汉语中的“主谓结构”转换成英语中的“从属结构”，可译为taking
place...became...这种结构。
2.载入…史册:可译为be included in the annals,还可译为be written
into the annals of history或者go down in history。
3.青年人关注国家前途和命运的一种精神:可译为a spirit showing the young people's concern aboutthe
future and destiny of the
country,把“关注”由动词转化为名词进行翻译。词性转换的应用，可减少句子的复杂性，体现句式的变化。
4.显示出青年人的责任、使命:翻译为manifest the young people's responsibility and
mission。
5.炽热的爱:可译为fiery love,也可翻译为passionate love。 |
