口译笔记练习材料(共5篇)
口译笔记练习材料 篇1
口译初学者,从无笔记口译转入到有笔记口译训练的阶段,往往陷入听的懂却不记不下来或者一记笔记就无法听的困境,甚至手忙脚乱,不知所措。to listening or to note-taking,that is a problem.主要原因有三:一是听辨能力不过关,不能很好的分辨意群和主次信息;二是,精力分配(effort coordination),只能将注意力放在听上或者写上,无法找到听和记之间的平衡。三是,笔记技巧不熟,没有形成自己的笔记体系。
口译笔记是大脑短期记忆的有效补充。用的好,会成为译员手上的大杀器;用不好,会成为译员的绊脚石。在纵写布局、并列式叠加分布、分层缩进等通用原则基础上,口译学习者应该结合自己的思维特点和理解习惯,设计个人的笔记体系。经过一定量的练习,并采用一定的方法,则可以形成简洁和便利的口译笔记。
第一步——无限时中文视记练习:即看着中文文本,边进行逻辑分析,边记口译笔记。无时间限制,认真分析原文结构,进行笔记。笔记完毕后,不看原文,用中文或者英文读出笔记记录的内容。对同一个段落可以反复练习三到四遍,直到产生最简洁有效的笔记。该练习,由于无听辨烦扰、无时间压力,初学者可以充分熟悉笔记技巧,初步设计出自己的笔记体系。
第二步——英文视记练习:步骤同中文视记练习。练习时,需体会中、英文语言差异对笔记带来的影响。
第三步——限时视记练习:以正常语速朗读文章,记录下朗读完毕所需要的时间。然后以稍长于刚才朗读时间的时间段为限,在限定时间内,看着中文/英文文本,记口译笔记。比如,如果朗读完原文的时间为1分30秒,则限定时间可为1分45秒,在1分45秒内要完成笔记,然后用中文或英文读出笔记。
如果能在1分45秒内完成所有笔记,则将限定时间定为1分35秒,然后笔记、阅读笔记。达到目标后,将时间限定为1分25秒-30秒,然后记笔记、阅读笔记。该练习,可以模拟听记时的时间压力,培养迅速的区分主次信息、选择笔记记忆点的能力。
第四步——中文听记练习:听中文原文,然后记笔记,记完之后用中文或英文翻译刚才记录的内容。同一段落可以反复练习两遍,并将两遍笔记进行对比和分析,找出问题所在。多余中国学生,由于中文是母语,听力和输入不是问题。放在听辨上的精力要远远小于听英文时的精力,可以帮助学习者练习听辨及笔记的结合,练习精力分配,找到听和记的平衡点。
第五步——慢速英文听记练习:听英文原文,然后记笔记,记完之后用中文或英文翻译刚才记录的内容。同一段落可以反复练习两遍,并将两遍笔记进行对比和分析,找出问题所在,并体会中、英文语言差异对笔记带来的影响。尽管语速较慢,由于是非母语,对听辨的能力要求提高,需要更好的在听和记之间进行精力分配。
第六步——标准语速英文听记练习:方法同第五步。为充分消化听辨的压力,材料选取需从易到难,从熟悉的材料开始入手,难逐渐加大。材料内容,从逻辑结构清晰明了的演讲或者新闻入手,然后进入到访谈、报道、大会发言等对需要较高逻辑分析的文章上来。反复练习,最终实现手耳并行,有条不紊。
最后,提醒大家,笔记固然重要,但是不能迷信笔记。在口译过程中,永远是脑记为主、笔记为辅,笔记不可取代脑记。另外,不管是看着文本视记还是听原文听记,笔记永远是以逻辑分析和信息理解为基础的,不分析,则无记录。不理解,则无有效记录。

1.Bill Gates is smiling again.The boyish enthusiasm is back, and the grueling burdens of monopoly lawsuits and dotcom downturns are receding.America’s best-known billionaire is back to doing what he has always done best-designing exciting new products and making barrels of money.The Launch of Office XP,a sophisticated rethink of Microsoft’s most popular business toll at the end of this May,marks merely the opening shot in a forthcoming technological blitz that Gates is serenely convinced will cement his companuy’s status as the unshakable colossus of computing.“It’s great to see people enthused about what we are doing.”Gates happily declares.2.China,the world’s most populous nation,joined the World Trade Organization on November 10,2001,thus ending 15 years of negotiations,offering China a new place at the table of nations and giving new life to centuries of dreams.The admission is one of China’s most significant diplomatic achievements since it displaced Taiwan and took a seat on the United Nations Securities Council in 1971,soon after which then President Richard Nixon made his famous trip to Beijing.Admission means China will enjoy protection against the imposition of barriers on its goods.The United States will cease the annual review

主题导入:以下是厦门旅游局领导在中国国际投资贸易洽谈会厦门招商项目推介会上的发言摘要。第一部分总结厦门旅游业的总体情况,第二部分则重点介绍民族路五星级大酒店招商项目的情况。
提示:请先熟悉列住的词汇与短语再听录音,并在录音停顿时开始口译。

首先,感谢各位对厦门旅游业发展的关注和支持,感谢大家来这里听取我对厦门旅游业招商引资项目相关情况的介绍。// 厦门市总面积1,565平方公里,其中有12.56公里的沙滩线适合辟为海水浴场。这里是白鹭成群栖息的地方,故有“鹭岛”之称。有“海上花园”、“中国最温馨的城市”之美誉,以温馨绰约的山色海景和城市环境驰名中外,1998年被评为首批中国优秀旅游城市,是海内外游客首选的中国十大旅游城市。从1991年起厦门旅游业创汇收入连续13年名列全国旅游城市前十位。2003年厦门共接待海内外游客1,334.07万人次,旅游总收入165.32亿元人民币。// 厦门市委、市政府高度重视旅游业的发展,充分认识到旅游业对厦门经济发展的重要性,把旅游业作为国民经济新的增长点和支柱产业来发展,出台了诸多鼓励旅游业发展的优惠政策,提出把厦门建设成为海峡西岸经济区重要的旅游中心城市。// 在这里,我重点介绍几个项目。首先是民族路五星级酒店项目。项目地处厦门老城区的中心区域,地理位置十分优越,靠近厦门繁华的中山路商业圈,同时紧邻环岛路交通枢纽的鹭江道,交通非常便捷;再加上周边的风景十分优美,与厦门旅游的金字招牌——鼓浪屿旅游区隔海相望,是观赏鼓浪屿全岛和鹭江两岸风光的极佳位置。// 项目建设用地面积为9,066.409平方米,规划建设五星级大酒店,主要计划指标为地上总建筑面积不超过50,000平方米,容积率不大于5.51,建筑高度100米以下,建筑密度不大于45%,绿地率不小于30%。总投资4,836万美元,投资方式为独资。// 17.4 SSS Corrosion Protection Company seeks cooperation in China 主题导入:下面的讲话是德国SSS防腐蚀技术公司负责人在中国国际投资贸易洽谈会上的发言,介绍公司情况并希望在中国寻找相关的合作伙伴。

cathodic corrosion protection technology electrolyte 电解液 steel reinforcement in concrete钢筋混凝土 anode 阳极
CPECC 中国石油工程建设(集团)公司
SSS Corrosion Protection Company is based in Essen, Germany.It is an internationally operating company which provides industrial services and systems for the world market.SSS Corrosion Protection Company offers a broad range of technical services implementing tailored and customized solutions.The know-how of SSS and the experience of more than 50 years enable the company to respond flexibly to the markets at home and abroad.// Our company was established in 1945.At that time few people knew the cathodic corrosion protection technology, but we had already begun to explore this technology.We have developed from a small group to a big company.We have taken up most of European market and have become the second biggest company in this field.The company was re-organized in 1999 with the target to be prepared for the innovative challenge of the new century and for better cooperation with our clients.Speed efficiency and a strong commitment to competition make the SSS a leading multi-service company.Now 90% of our business is abroad and only 10% in Germany.// Let me begin with what corrosion is.Corrosion is the reaction of a metallic material with its environment.In all electrolytes, as for example, in the ground, in river or sea water, metal atoms go into solution as electrically charged ions during the corrosion reaction.ThIS process produces a more or less rapid loss of metal surfaces.The flow of electrons results in a current flowing from the metal to the electrolyte.// Corrosion protection comes in two kinds: passive corrosion protection and active corrosion protection refers to using the cathodic corrosion protection technology.The technology used by our company is a type of active corrosion protection.// The application of cathodic protection includes: pipelines, vessel, harbours, jutties, oil and gas platforms, production wells—oil, gas, water, sluices, storage tanks, industrial plants and steel reinforcement in concrete.Based on long experience with regards to requirements and in-house resources of domestic and international clients, we have developed the technical expertise, resources and reliable business relationships to provide a complete range of services to carry out all types of cathodic protection activities, works and projects.// Using our technology can save you a lot of money.Let me give you an example.If you have a 1,000-kilometre pipeline, and you need to have an anode station every one and a half kilometres, but if you use our technology, you will only need an anode station for every 500 kilometres.// We have been operating in China for seven years.We are cooperating with Daqing Oil Field.We also have a project in Langfang with CPECC Company.Recently we have a project in Sudan.Our company’s newest operation is in Libya.We have come to China to seek cooperation with Chinese companies.We hope to contact oil companies, oil and natural gas pipeline companies, harbour and distribution companies.// If you are interested in our technology, we can set up a seminar and technician training session.The training session includes classroom training and field training, either in Germany or in your country.For different structures, we organize different seminars covering specific thchnology.// I have a catalogue but I have give it to you now because I have only one.You can visit our website, where you can find everything there and information is always up-to-date.You can fill in the questionnaire on our website and send it to us.Or you can mail us your address and we will provide you with our brochure which gives detailed information about our services and products.Now if you have any questions… // 17.5 A brief introduction to AgustaWestland 主题导入:下面的讲话简单地介绍了英意合资的阿古斯特韦斯特兰直升机公司的情况,包括公司现在生产和正在研发的产品。

口译笔记记什么 篇4
意思是讲话的组成部分,从数量上是笔记的主要内容。所谓记笔记,就是通过一个字符记住有关的意思,不管是什么样的字符(文字、符号、图形等等),一个字符的提示作用,可以使人回想起一系列意思之间的联系。从这种意义上说,笔记所对应的不是按照语法规则组织起来的语音形式,笔记所代表的意思,可以用与讲话的原文不同的文字来表达。
笔记中还有表示各个意思之间的联系,比如因果、推论等等,以及各个意思之间的时间关系,这种联系和关系是意思表达的组成部分。
可以作为代码直接过渡到另一种语言(直译)的字词。
在笔记中记意思时,我们采用的是一般人们所说的记“关键词”的办法。译员根据笔记中“关键词”的提示,用自己的话重新表达意思。与此不同的是,有些词需要原封不动地记住,翻译时用另一种语言重新说一遍,对这些词的处理比较简单。与意思相比,需要在笔记中记下来的“不变的词”要少得多,但这种词在讲话中却是必不可少的。
除个别情况外,必须用笔记记下来的有数字、专有名词和严格意义上说的技术术语。
二、记数字
在学习的初期阶段,教师建议学生只注意听数字的大概数量级别,但是现在,学生要学习如何记下精确的数字。听到有数字时,译员必须立刻记下来,哪怕中断对意思的笔记,意思可以以后再记。的确,数字不依赖上下文,从而形成某种意思;所以必须在我们还没有忘记的时候用笔记下来。如果数字表示的大小概念是我们不知道的,那么一旦忘记,就会再也想不起来了,至多像初学翻译时那样,说出个大概的数量级别。
三、记专有名词
与数字相反,专有名词一般情况下是用不着翻译的,只要把人名、地名的发音按照译入语的要求稍微变一变就行。但是,我们很难听清楚一个不知道的人名,而且几乎不可能死记在脑子里。所以如果是不熟悉的名字,就要立刻记下来,而且要让笔记尽可能接近听到的发音。通常,如果听得不是特别真切,与其记个大概其,不如用一般的词代替人名,比如说“英国的代表”(或马里代表,韩国代表等等)或者“秘书长”之类,因为一旦说错了名字,会让人家感到气恼。
四、记技术术语
除了数字和专有名词之外,还要让学生在笔记中记下技术术语。术语在讲话的上下文中指的只能是一种东西,可以像代码一样在各种语言里找到对应词。这样的词每种语言都有成千上万,但比日常用语的词汇量还是少。在教学练习中,要逐渐引进这样的词汇,在学生掌握了记笔记的方法之后,可以逐渐增加练习的难度。让学生接触机械、工程、外科手术等等的说明时,可以大量使用。
