PART C 英譯漢

　　(46) Scientists jumped to the rescue with some distinctly shaky evidence to the effect that insects would eat us up if birds failed to control them

　　翻譯：科學家們匆匆趕來救援，但證據是明顯站不住腳的。大意就是，如果鳥不能控制這些蟲子，蟲子就會吃光一切。

　　解析：

　　1.句子主干為Scientist jump to the rescue. With引導jump的伴隨狀語，to the effect that 是evidence的同位語從句。If從句是該同位語從句中的條件狀語從句。

　　2.Jump to sth表示“匆匆......”, 例如jump to a conclusion表示“匆匆得出結論”; to the effect that 是固定搭配，表示“大意是...”

　　(47) but we have at least drawn near the point of admitting that birds should continue as a matter of intrinsic right, regardless of the presence or absence of economic advantage to us.

　　翻譯：但是，我們至少比較一致的認可這樣一種觀點，即：無論鳥類對我們是否具有經濟價值，他們都應該繼續享有其固有的生物權利。

　　解析：

　　1.句子主干是We have drawn near the point;Of admitting是介詞短語做定語，修飾point，;之后的that...是admit的賓語從句;regardless of ...是作讓步狀語。

　　2.draw near the point of，意為“接近......”, as a matter of, 意為“作為......”, regardless of,意為，“不管，不顧”，引導讓步狀語。

　　(48) Time was when biologists somewhat over worded the evidence that these creatures preserve the health of game by killing the physically weak, or that they prey only on “worthless species”.

　　翻譯：生物學家們曾一度濫用這個證據：這些生物通過殘殺弱者來維持生物鏈條的健康發展，或者只是捕食“無價值的物種”。

　　解析：

　　1.句子主干是“Time was when ...”. when引導表語從句，兩個that從句是evidence的并列同位語從句

　　2.Time was when，意為“曾經，從前”，prey on，意為“捕食”

　　(49) In Europe, where forestry is ecologically more advanced, the Non-commercial tree species are recognized as members of native forest community, to be preserved as such, within reason.

　　翻譯：歐洲的林業生態發展比較先進。，那些沒有商業價值的樹種被視為原始森林群落的成員而被合理保護。

　　解析：

　　1.句子主干是the Non-commercial tree species are recognized as members of native forest community;Where引導定語從句修飾Europe，充當句子的地點狀語。

　　2.be recognized as意為，“被看做”; within reason， 意為“合情合理的”

　　(50) It tends to ignore, and thus eventually to eliminate, many elements in the land community that lack commercial value, but that are essential to its healthy functioning.

　　翻譯：這樣的體系容易忽視、并最終滅絕了生物群落中的許多元素。然而這些元素雖然缺少商業價值，但對整個群落的健康運動卻至關重要。

　　解析：

　　1.句子主干是It tends to ignore and to eliminate...;兩個that分別引導定語從句修飾elements，意義上為轉折關系。

　　2.Tend to do sth.意為“傾向于做某事”; be essential to sth，意為“對......必要的”
