2021考研英语长难句分析(21)
对于很多考研的同学来说，大家都觉得考研英语很难，不仅仅是考查的单词难，句子更难，有时候即使知道整句话中所有的单词，也还是不能理解整句话的意思。同时，考研英语的整个句子很长，拿到句子很多同学不知道如何下手，尤其是考英语二的同学，英语基础普遍不好，拿到翻译题不知道如何处理。今天我们就来浅谈翻译中长难句的处理，以2016年英语二的篇章翻译为例：
The supermarket is designed to lure customers into spending as much time as possible within its doors. The reason for this is simple: The longer you stay in the store， the more stuff you'll' see， and the more stuff you see， the more you'll' buy. And supermarkets contain a lot of stuff. The average supermarket， according to the Food Marketing Institute， carries some 44，000 different items， and many carry tens of thousands more. The sheer volume of available choice is enough to send shoppers into a state of information over-load. According to brain-scan experiments， the demands of so much decision-making- quickly become too much for us. After about 40 minutes of shopping， most people stop struggling to be rationally selective， and instead begin shopping emotionally—which is the point at which we accumulate the 50 percent of stuff in our cart that we never intended buying.
接下来，挑选原文中的长句子来处理：
1. The reason for this is simple: The longer you stay in the store， the more stuff you'll' see， and the more stuff you see， the more you'll' buy.
2. After about 40 minutes of shopping， most people stop struggling to be rationally selective， and instead begin shopping emotionally—which is the point at which we accumulate the 50 percent of stuff in our cart that we never intended buying.
对于长句子来说，我们通常先把句子进行断句，断为几个能处理的断句。断句的标志有标点，连词和短语，然后顺译该句子，最后在进行语序调整。先来看第一个句子：
1. The reason for this is simple: The longer you stay in the store， the more stuff you'll' see， and the more stuff you see， the more you'll' buy.
第一步：断句。先找标志。 根据长度适中原则及语法结构完整原则，断句为：
The reason for this is simple:// The longer you stay in the store， the more stuff you'll' see， //and the more stuff you see， the more you'll' buy.
第二步：顺译每个句子
1>The reason for this is simple://
这个的原因是简单的：
2> The longer you stay in the store， the more stuff you'll' see，
越长你待在店里， 越多的商品 你将看到
3> //and the more stuff you see， the more you'll' buy.
并且，越多的商品 你看到 ， 越多 你将买
第三步：调整语序
1>The reason for this is simple://
这个的原因很简单：
2> The longer you stay in the store， the more stuff you'll' see，
你在店里待的越久，你看到的商品就会越多
3> //and the more stuff you see， the more you'll' buy.
你看到的商品越多，你买的就会越多。
第四步：组整句
原因很简单：你在店里待的越久，看到的商品就越多;看到的商品越多，你买的就会越多。
第二个句子：
2. After about 40 minutes of shopping， most people stop struggling to be rationally selective， and instead begin shopping emotionally—which is the point at which we accumulate the 50 percent of stuff in our cart that we never intended buying.
第一步：断句。先找标志 —— 根据长度适中原则断句为：
After about 40 minutes of shopping，// most people stop struggling to be rationally selective，// and instead begin shopping emotionally—//which is the point at which we accumulate the 50 percent of stuff in our cart that we never intended buying.
破折号后面的句子还在长，进行第二次断句，找从属连词有 which, 介词at +which , that.找到从属连词画从句，which is the point at which we accumulate the 50 percent of stuff in our cart that we never intended buying. 根据长度适中原则断句为which is the point at which we accumulate the 50 percent of stuff in our cart//that we never intended buying.
最终断句为:
After about 40 minutes of shopping，// most people stop struggling to be rationally selective，// and instead begin shopping emotionally—//which is the point at which we accumulate the 50 percent of stuff in our cart// that we never intended buying.
第二步：顺译每个句子
After about 40 minutes of shopping，//
在大约40分钟的购物后
most people stop struggling to be rationally selective，//
大多数人停止挣扎来理性挑选
and instead begin shopping emotionally—//
并且，取而代之，开始感性购物
which is the point at which we accumulate the 50 percent of stuff in our cart//
