筷子
筷子(chopsticks)是中国传统的独具特色的进食工具(dining utensils),至今已有数千年的历史。筷子在古代被称为“箸”,大约从明朝开始才有了“筷子”的称呼。筷子多为竹子制成,也有用木头、象牙(ivory)、金属或其他材料制作而成。它要么上方下圆,要么上下全圆而上粗下细。不管其形状如何,筷子必须是成对使用的,并且两只筷子的大小长短要相同。筷子是中国人日常生活的必备工具,它的发明充分反映了中国人民的智慧。

词句讲解
1.第一句的主干结构为“筷子是进食工具至今已有数千年的历史”可使用插入语的形式,进行补充说明,使用 with ahistory of...进行翻译。
2.第二句“筷子在古代…”中包含时间状语“在古代”,因此句子的时态应为过去时。
3.在“它要么上方下圆…上粗下细”一句中,“上下”主要指的是筷子的上半部分、下半部分,使用upper part和lower part来表达;“上方下圆”英译时可以分享系动词are,译作upper parts are square and lower parts round,避免重复;“上下全圆”可译作句子的主干,后跟介词短语with thicker upper parts and thinner lower parts说明“上粗下细”的形状。
4.“不管其形状如何”在翻译时使用“whatever+n.(their shapes)+be动词”结构,相当于状语从句nomatter what their shapes are;“大小长短要相同”没有直译成 be of the same size and height,而译为be identical to each other,后者的译法更加优美。
5.最后一句中“它的发明…”可使用which引导的非限制性定语从句结构,对前一句进行进一步的说明。
