英语翻译技巧：

第一、省略翻译法

这与最开始提到的增译法相反，就是要求你把不符合汉语，或者英语的表达的方式、思维的习惯或者语言的习惯的部分删去，以免使所翻译出的句子沉杂累赘。

第二、合并法

合并翻译法就是把多个短句子或者简单句合并到一起，形成一个复合句或者说复杂句，多出现在汉译英的题目里出现，比如最后会翻译成定语从句、状语从句、宾语从句等等。

这是因为汉语句子里面喜欢所谓的“形散神不散”，即句子结构松散，但其中的语意又是紧密相连的，所以为了表达出这种感觉，汉语多用简单句进行写作。而英语则不同，它比较强调形式，结构严谨，所以会多用复杂句、长句。因此，汉译英时还需要注意介词、连词、分词的使用。

1．引言 《了不起的盖茨比》（The Great Gatsby）是美国二十年代著名小说家司各特·菲茨杰拉德（Scott Fitzgerald，1896-1940）的杰作，它以完美的艺术形式向读者诉说了一场美国梦的破灭。这篇小说从内容来说不过讲述了一个“负心女子痴心汉”的故事，但是它给读者造成的感染力决不止爱情的失落。从小说的字里行间中，读者能感受到一种“距离感”，那就是：一切美好的事物都是海市蜃楼，美国梦仅仅是个虚无飘渺的空中楼阁。本文依据文体学的有关理论，从小说的语言特征出发，试图发掘《了不起的盖茨比》怎样达到这种优美而悲伤的文体效果。 2．功能语言学在小说中的应用 利奇（Leech, Geoffrey）和肖特（Short, Michael）在他们的著作《小说的文体》（Style in Fiction, 1981：174）中根据功能语言学的理论从三方面对小说文体进行分析：描写角度（point of view），叙述顺序（fictional sequencing）和描写焦点（descriptive focus）。这三方面分别与韩礼德所提出的语言的三个“元功能”——人际功能，语篇功能和概念功能相对应。 描写角度是指一篇文学作品中叙述者对叙述事件的态度或意见。作者可以第一人称“我”的角度进行叙述，也可从小说中某一人物的角度入手，或者以一个第三者的身份来叙述。在《了不起的盖茨比》这部作品中，作者创造了一个名叫尼克·卡罗威（Nick Carraway）的人物，把他作为整个故事的叙述者，同时他又参与和目睹了故事的发生、过程和结束。这一双重的描写角度拉大了读者与盖茨比这个故事的距离，无形中给整篇小说造成了一种深沉幽怨的氛围。以下两段分别取自不同的描写角度： (1) When I came back from the East last autumn I felt that I wanted the world to be in uniform and at a sort of moral attention forever; I wanted no more riotous excursions with privileged glimpses into the human heart. Only Gatsby, the man who gives his name to this book, was exempt from my reaction—Gatsby, who represented every thing for which I have an unaffected scorn. If personality is an unbroken series of successful gestures, then there was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life, as if he were related to one of those intricate machines that register earthquakes ten thousand miles away. … ( P2-3, The Great Gatsby, 上海译文出版社, 1994 ) (2) I decided to call to him. Miss Baker had mentioned him at dinner and that would do for an introduction. But I didn’t call to him, for he gave a sudden intimation that he was content to be alone—he stretched out his arms toward the dark water in a curious way, and, far as I was from him, I could have sworn he was trembling. …( P34, 同上)
