句子分析

【Step 1】找谓语

Instead, we are treated to fine hypocritical spectacles, which now more than ever seem in ample supply: the critic of American materialism with a Southampton summer home; the publisher of radical books who takes his meals in three-star restaurants; the journalist advocating participatory democracy in all phases of life, whose own children are enrolled in private schools.

·动词 are treated 语态:被动语态+时态:一般现在时

·动词 seem 时态:一般现在时

·动词 takes 时态:一般现在时

·动词 are enrolled 语态:被动语态+时态:一般现在时

【Step 2】断句

Instead, we are treated to fine hypocritical spectacles, [which now more than ever seem in ample supply]: the critic of American materialism with a Southampton summer home; the publisher of radical books [who takes his meals in three-star restaurants]; the journalist advocating participatory democracy in all phases of life, [whose own children are enrolled in private schools].

本句包含3个从句:1个which引导的非限制性定语从句;1个who引导的定语从句;1个whose引导的非限制性定语从句。

which引导的非限制性定语从句:

...fine hypocritical spectacles, [which now more than ever seem in ample supply]

判断方法:1.形式:有逗号将从句与主句隔开<非限制性定语从句的典型特征>;2.指代功能:which指代名词fine hypocritical spectacles在从句中作谓语动词seem的主语<大致译为:这些虚伪景象似乎是大量供应的——这些虚伪景象非常多>。

who引导的定语从句:

the publisher of radical books [who takes his meals in three-star restaurants]
此处出现定语的分隔现象:名词|代词+后置定语1+后置定语2

补充解释:who引导的定语从句判断方法:1.位置:在名词|代词后;2.指代功能:该名词|代词指人——但who从句前的名词books并不指人,因此考虑出现定语的分隔现象,即定语从句修饰的名词是the publisher。

whose引导的非限制性定语从句:

the journalist advocating participatory democracy in all phases of life, [whose own children are enrolled in private schools].

判断方法:1.形式:有逗号将从句与主句隔开<非限制性定语从句的典型特征>;2.指代功能:whose own children=the journalist's own children在从句中作谓语动词are enrolled的主语<大致译为:新闻记者自己的孩子被招收到私立学校——新闻记者自己的孩子去私立学校读书>。

重点成分标注:

主语:在句首|谓语前

宾语:在动词|介词后

表语:在系动词后

主语:蓝色;谓语:红色;表语:绿色;宾语:紫色;宾补:深蓝

主句:

Instead, we are treated to fine hypocritical spectacles...: the critic of American materialism with a Southampton summer home; the publisher of radical books...; the journalist advocating participatory democracy in all phases of life,...
其中,
1.主句是A:B结构,B由3个名词短语构成,表示对A中fine hypocritical spectacles的解释说明,即属于fine hypocritical spectacles的同位语【判断方法:1.位置:在名词|代词后;2.fine hypocritical spectacles=3个名词短语】,即所谓的虚伪景象就是后面列举这3个名词短语,详见翻译

2.to fine hypocritical spectacles_介宾结构作状语,具体解释怎么个款待法,用fine hypocritical spectacles来款待。

3.the critic of American materialism with a Southampton summer home_此处出现定语的分隔现象:名词|代词+后置定语1+后置定语,大致译为“美国物质主义的批评家、拥有一栋南安普顿避暑别墅的批评家”。

4.advocating participatory democracy in all phases of life_非谓语短语作后置定语修饰名词the journalist【判断方法:1.位置:在名词|代词后;2.代入翻译通顺即可,即译为“...的”<提倡在人生各个阶段施行参与制民主的新闻记者>】

which引导的非限制性定语从句:

[which now more than ever seem in ample supply]
其中,
1. now more than ever_相当于副词作时间状语。

who引导的定语从句:

[who takes his meals in three-star restaurants]
其中,
1.in three-star restaurants_介宾结构作地点状语,表示吃饭的地点。

whose引导的非限制性定语从句:

[whose own children are enrolled in private schools].
其中,
1.in private schools_介宾结构作地点状语,表示孩子被招收的地点。

【Step 3】翻译

Instead, we are treated to fine hypocritical spectacles, [which now more than ever seem in ample supply]: the critic of American materialism with a Southampton summer home; the publisher of radical books [who takes his meals in three-star restaurants]; the journalist advocating participatory democracy in all phases of life, [whose own children are enrolled in private schools].

本句冒号后的3个名词短语过长,由此考虑把它们译为句子更合适。

部分一:

Instead, we are treated to fine hypocritical spectacles, [which now more than ever seem in ample supply]: 
翻译:相反,我们被款待了美好的虚伪景象,这些美好的虚伪景象似乎比以往任何时候都大量供应:
翻译解释:非限制性定语从句通常采取后置译法,即单独成句+重复先行词。

部分二:

the critic of American materialism with a Southampton summer home
翻译:美国物质主义的批评家拥有一栋南安普顿避暑别墅
改译:美国物质主义的批评家在南安普顿拥有一处避暑别墅
翻译解释:针对定语的分隔现象,翻译时为了平衡句子结构,通常采取“前置+后置”的融合法,即一个译为前置定语“...的”;另外一个单独成句。

部分三:

the publisher of radical books [who takes his meals in three-star restaurants]
翻译:激进书籍的出版商在三星级饭店吃饭
改译:激进书籍的出版商到三星级酒店就餐

部分四:

the journalist advocating participatory democracy in all phases of life[whose own children are enrolled in private schools].
翻译:提倡在人生各个阶段施行参与制民主的新闻记者,新闻记者的孩子被招收到私立学校读书
改译:提倡在人生各个阶段施行参与制民主的新闻记者,把自己的孩子送到私立学校读书

翻译解释:注意本句涉及被动的翻译,尽量不要用“被”字。

【Step 4】整合译文

相反,我们被款待了美好的虚伪景象,这些虚伪景象似乎比以往任何时候都大量供应美国物质主义的批评家在南安普顿拥有一处避暑别墅;激进书籍的出版商到三星级酒店就餐;提倡在人生各个阶段施行参与制民主的新闻记者,把自己的孩子送到私立学校读书。

【Step 5】润色译文

Instead, we are treated to fine hypocritical spectacles, [which now more than ever seem in ample supply]: the critic of American materialism with a Southampton summer home; the publisher of radical books [who takes his meals in three-star restaurants]; the journalist advocating participatory democracy in all phases of life, [whose own children are enrolled in private schools].
相反,我们目睹了很多“精彩的”虚伪景象——似乎比以往任何时候都多:美国物质主义的批评家在南安普顿拥有避暑别墅;激进书籍的出版商到三星级宾馆就餐;倡导在人生各个阶段施行参与制民主的新闻记者却把自己的子女送进私立学校。
翻译解释:
1.fine_通过语境可知,fine的使用是一个典型的反讽,作者不是真的在夸这些“景象”好,而是在说”我们被款待了一场绝妙的虚伪大戏”,故fine在此处用以表达对这种景象的讥讽。
