    2021考研英語(yǔ)：諺語(yǔ)的巧妙翻譯法
    as timid as a hare 膽小如鼠
    (在西方文化中，兔子是膽小的象征，而在我國(guó)，兔子卻象征著機(jī)警敏捷。人們常說(shuō)：“靜若處子，動(dòng)若脫兔?！笔笤谖覈?guó)才是膽小的象征，所以翻譯時(shí)直接加以歸化。)
    at a stone's throw一箭之遙
    wet like a drown rat 濕如落湯雞
    as stupid as a goose 蠢得像豬
    as stubborn as a mule 犟得像牛
    seek a hare in a hen's nest 緣木求魚
    as dumb as an oyster 守口如瓶

    (2)One boy is a boy， two boys half a boy， three boys no boy.
    一個(gè)和尚挑水吃，兩個(gè)和尚抬水吃，三個(gè)和尚沒(méi)水吃。
    (3) I was limp as a dish rag. My back felt as through it had been beaten with wires.
    我軟得像一團(tuán)棉花，脊背疼痛得好像被鋼絲抽打過(guò)一樣。
    (原文中l(wèi)imp as a dish rag，如直譯為“像洗碟布一樣柔軟”，既不地道，又讓人產(chǎn)生一種較惡心的感覺(jué)，不如用漢語(yǔ)中常說(shuō)的“軟得像一團(tuán)棉花”加以歸化。)
    (4) Everybody said how well the new Secretary was doing， but old Mr. Carr said shortly，“Yes. New brooms sweep clean.”
    人人都說(shuō)新任秘書干得好，但卡爾老先生卻簡(jiǎn)慢地說(shuō)：“新官上任三把火。”
    (原文new brooms sweep clean的字面意思是“新掃把掃得干凈”，比喻“新任職的人干得好”，和漢語(yǔ)中的“新官上任三把火”異曲同工，貌離神合。)
