【解析】

總體而言,今年的四級翻譯難度適中。首先,主題依然是熱門話題,互聯(lián)網(wǎng)發(fā)展帶來的變化和影響,因此,根據(jù)話題可以提前積累好以下一些詞匯和表達: “手機購物”:mobile shopping;“現(xiàn)金”:cash;“信用卡”:credit card;。其次,翻譯和作文模板常用的一些固定句型、固定表達,在今年的翻譯中也能有很好的運用,例如:“……在蓬勃發(fā)展”:… has been booming;“……成為一種趨勢”:… has become a trend;“給……打折”:give discounts to…;“……仍有很大發(fā)展?jié)摿Α保骸?still has great potential。最后,考察內(nèi)容中稍微困難,拉開分數(shù)差距的考點是“移動支付市場”、“隨著……的出現(xiàn)”和“構成了……的最大群體”的準確翻譯,它們分別是:mobile payment market,With the emergence of…,constitute the largest group。而在語法方面,本篇文章的難點是長句的翻譯,尤其是在長句中如何挑選出合適的部分確定主語,然后借助介詞短語、從句等合理組織語言。
