2008年12月20日四級翻譯點評 上海新東方學校國內考試部 賈從永

　　87. Medical researchers are painfully aware that there are many problems ______________ (他們至今還沒有答案)

　　點評：本題要翻譯成英語的定語從句，修飾前面的problems, 時態最好用現在完成時，故可翻譯成：(which / that ) they have not come up with / found a solution to.

　　88. ------ (大多數父母所關心的)is providing the best education possible for their children.

　　點評：本句的漢語部分要翻譯成英語中的主語從句，宜用what引導，可翻譯成What concerns most parents 或者What most parents are concerned about。

　　89. You'b better take a sweater with you ________(以防天氣冷).

　　點評：本題重點考察"以防"，可以翻譯成in case引起的從句，從句中的謂語動詞多用should+動詞原形，但可以不用虛擬語氣，而用動詞的陳述語氣。所以，本題可翻譯成in case it turns / becomes cold.或者in case it should turn / become cold.

　　90. Through the project, many people have received training and _______(決定自己創業).

　　點評：本題重點考察"創業"，可翻譯成to launch / set up / establish / begin their own enterprise. 或者to launch / set up / establish / begin an enterprise of their own.

　　91. The anti-virus agent was not known _________ (直到一名醫生偶然發現了它)

　　點評：本題顯然是考察not --- until 句型，此處的"發現"可以翻譯為discover，若翻譯成find則不甚合適，因為這里指的是科學上的發現。所以，本句我們可以翻譯成until a doctor discovered it accidentally / by chance.
