  Human beings in all times and places think about their world and wonder at their place in it. Humans are thoughtful and creative, possessed of insatiable curiosity. 61) Furthermore, humans have the ability to modify the environment in which they live, thus subjecting all other life forms to their own peculiar ideas and fancies. Therefore, it is important to study humans in all their richness and diversity in a calm and systematic manner, with the hope that the knowledge resulting from such studies can lead humans to a more harmonious way of living with themselves and with all other life forms on this planet Earth. 2_i9 q>I  
  "Anthropology" derives from the Greek words anthropos "human" and logos "the study of." By its very name, anthropology encompasses the study of all humankind. "44A#0)B'l  
  Anthropology is one of the social sciences. 62) Social science is that branch of intellectual enquiry which seeks to study humans and their endeavors in the same reasoned, orderly, systematic, and dispassioned manner that natural scientists use for the study of natural phenomena. Y30T>5  
  Social science disciplines include geography, economics, political science, psychology, and sociology. Each of these social sciences has a subfield or specialization which lies particularly close to anthropology. &Q>tV+*  
  All the social sciences focus upon the study of humanity. Anthropology is a field-study oriented discipline which makes extensive use of the comparative method in analysis. 63) The emphasis on data gathered first-hand, combined with a cross-cultural perspective brought to the analysis of cultures past and present, makes this study a unique and distinctly important social science. KJs/4oR;  
  Anthropological analyses rest heavily upon the concept of culture. Sir Edward Tylor's formulation of the concept of culture was one of the great intellectual achievements of 19th century science. 64) Tylor defined culture as "... that complex whole which includes belief, art, morals, law, custom, and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man as a member of society." This insight, so profound in its simplicity, opened up an entirely new way of perceiving and understanding human life. Implicit within Tyler's definition is the concept that culture is learned, shared, and patterned behavior. ]zt77'J  
  65) Thus, the anthropological concept of "culture," like the concept of "set" in mathematics, is an abstract concept which makes possible immense amounts of concrete research and understanding. }JWLm.e

1、of前面的名词与of本身构成固定搭配,该固定搭配修饰的核心词是后面那个名词。如a number of people , |lDR@  
2、of前面的名词与of本身不构成固定搭配,则由后面那个名词修饰前面那个名词。如a man of importance p G-9H3[f#  
branch of intellectual enquiry:知识探索的分支 DKnlbl1^?  
句子翻译:社会科学就是知识探索的一个分支。 5%#V>|@e#  
此处定语从句的翻译要从整个句子分割出来,作为一个单独的句子来翻。 W3M1> (

63) The emphasis on data gathered first-hand, combined with a cross-cultural perspective brought to the analysis of cultures past and present, makes this study a unique and distinctly important social science. 7 /7,55  
找动词: $Le|4Hj

brought to 引导的是一个定语来修饰perspective ,!vI@>nhG

64) Tylor defined culture as "... that complex whole which includes belief, art, morals, law, custom, and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man as a member of society." C17$ qdV/  
Tylor:英语中的人名 ?)O!(=6%'  
人名翻译的两个要点: [79iC$8B|  
1、原文中出现像Tylor这种人名,不能原封不动保留到译文中去。 f-`C1|\w  
2、如果翻译的人名是普通人的名字,那翻译的汉字可以随意写;如果是著名的人的名字,那就一定要写约定俗成的几个字。 0BP Ubp(  
例如:Churchill要翻译成邱吉尔 :$Xvq-#$|  
Tylor:采用音译:泰勒 x(7Q5Uk\  
define:定义 n.definition !,9 ;AMO -  
that:此处是强调词 +} x\|O  
complex:复杂的 |ngv{g  
whole:整体 ']U<R=5T$  
译文:泰勒把文化定义为一个复杂的整体。 v2Vmcc_]9x  
出题者认为:最后的后置定语翻译到capabilities或belief前面都正确。 _6.Y3+7I  
acquire:获得、取得 0y `r.)G  
bellief:信仰 I9L7,~s  
根据与最后的后置定语的搭配习惯,后置定语最好只翻译到capabilities前面。 W!V-m  
custom(习俗)和habits(习惯)的区别:习俗是习惯的集合、习俗是群体的行为,习惯是个人的行为。 `+!F#.  
泰勒把文化定义为一个复杂的整体,它包括信仰、艺术、道德、法律、习俗以及其它任何人作为社会成员所获得的能力和习惯。 bD`h/jYv  
定语从句的译法: k]rc -c-  
1、当定语从句的结构复杂,信息负载量比较大时,通常选择将它独立成句,并把先行词补充出来。 H,EGB8E2  
2、当定语从句比较少,结构简单,信息量小,通常可以放到先行词前面,翻成偏正结构。 M{g.x4M@W

谓语动词:is 、 makes 6&o? #l;|

mathematics:数学 %Ix2NdC  
set:集合 [l}H%S   
abstract:抽象的 BS3{TGn

makes possible:语法现象上叫宾语后置。 LfN,aW  
如 get rapid the information h@dy}Id  
将which引导的定语从句独立成句 #gVWLm<  
整句翻译:因此,人类学的文化概念就像数学中的“集”的概念一样,是一个抽象的概念,它使得大量的具体研究和理解成为可能。 M(vX.kF  
注意:2003年的考题中没有考特别难的指代关系,很有可能在2004年考,同学们在这方面要多做准备。 ~ R eX$9  
从2003年考题中看出,定语从句是一种长久不衰的题型,因此对定语从句翻译要做深入的了解和准备。 xnHB <xrE}  
加深对词汇深度的理解。尽量深刻把握词汇的三到四种意思。
