  The May 4th Movement

  Taking place on May 4th, 1919 in Peking, the patriotic May 4th Movement, conducted mainlyby the young students, quickly became a nation-wide revolutionary movement.

  1.发生于…并转变成…:原文中句子较长,且修饰语很多,但前后句的主语统一,所以在翻译时可将汉语中的“主谓结构”转换成英语中的“从属结构”,可译为taking place...became...这种结构。

  2.载入…史册:可译为be included in the annals,还可译为be written

  into the annals of history或者go down in history。

  3.青年人关注国家前途和命运的一种精神:可译为a spirit showing the young people's concern aboutthe future and destiny of the country,把“关注”由动词转化为名词进行翻译。词性转换的应用,可减少句子的复杂性,体现句式的变化。

  4.显示出青年人的责任、使命:翻译为manifest the young people's responsibility and mission。

  5.炽热的爱:可译为fiery love,也可翻译为passionate love。
