2、 place of origin, there is even some uncertainty regarding his “background.” This is because the people of Weichuang only made use of his services or treated him as a laughing-stock, without ever paying the slightest attention to his “background.” Ah Q himself remained silent on this subject, except

3、 that when quarrelling with someone he might glance at him and say, “We used to be much better off than you! Who do you think you are anyway?”,Original,阿没有家，住在未庄的土谷祠里；也没有固定的职业，只给人家做短工，割麦便割麦，舂米便舂米，撑船便撑船。 工作略长久时，他也或住在临时主人的家里，但一完就走了。 所以，人们忙碌的时候，也还记起阿来，然而记起的是做工，并不是“行状”；一闲空，连阿都早忘却，更不必说“行状”了。只是有一回，有一个老头子颂

4、扬说：“阿真能做！” 这时阿赤着膊，懒洋洋的瘦伶仃的正在他面前，别人也摸不着这话是真心还是讥笑，然而阿很喜欢。,Questions,Q1:翻译前要多读几遍，找到感觉，体会作者说话的语气，即把握原文的风格，包括用词（大还是小？）、句式（长还是短？完整还是省略？是否有异常的句式？）、节奏（快还是慢？急还是缓？）。A:随意，口语化（句式短，用词小，有不完整句），但节奏感强，但语速慢而缓。因此，译文也应尽量体现这种风格。Q2:以段为整体进行翻译，分析该段各句之间的关系，看是否需要分段？是否需要合句或分句？A: 该段句与句之间比较独立，可不分句。,Questions for Sentence ,A)阿没

5、有家，住在未庄的土谷祠里；B)也没有固定的职业，只给人家做短工，割麦便割麦，舂米便舂米，撑船便撑船。Q: 该句由2部分构成，由分号分开，二者是什么关系？是否需要合译？A: 两部分属并列关系，说了两件事：一是“没家”，一是“没职业”，点明了阿Q的身份。可译成两句。,A)阿没有家，住在未庄的土谷祠里。,Q1: 由两部分构成，二者是什么关系？要用什么关联词？或是否要译成两句？A: 因果关系，不需分句。但要搞清孰主孰次。Q2: “家”怎么译？“没有家”怎么译？“土谷祠”怎么译？A: “家”应译为family，不译home，“没有家”也不能译为homeless，其实他有home（土谷祠）。土谷祠土地庙。
