2025年6月六级翻译专项训练6:长江
长江(Yangtze River)仅次于南美洲的亚马逊河(theAmazon River)与非洲的尼罗河(the Nile),是世界第三大河,亚洲第一大河。辽阔的长江流域,资源极为丰富,自古以来是中国最重要的农业经济区。今日长江,以上海为中心的长江三角洲经济区、武汉为中心的华中经济区和重庆为中心的西南经济区为依托,横贯东西,带动南北,成为经济发展的重要基地。多少年来,人们一直赞誉长江流域的四川盆地是“天府之国”,两湖地区是“鱼米之乡”。
参考译文:
The Yangtze River is the longest river in Asia and the third longest in the world, surpassed only by the Amazon River in South America and the Nile in Africa. The vast Yangtze River basin is extremely rich in resources and has been China's most important agricultural economic zone since ancient times. Today, the Yangtze River, supported by the Yangtze River Delta Economic Zone centered around Shanghai, the central China Economic Zone centered around Wuhan, and the Southwest Economic Zone centered around Chongqing, spans from east to west and drives development from north to south, serving as a crucial base for economic development. For many years, the Sichuan Basin along the Yangtze River has been acclaimed as the "Land of Abundance," while the regions of Hubei and Hunan have often been referred to as "a land of fish and rice."
