结构推理
Cross-country skier Katerina Neumannova first competed in the Games in 1992,but it was not until her third Winter Games that she finally won her first medals:a silver in the 5-kilometer race and a bronze in the pursuit.Two more silver medals were won in 2002,this time at 15 kilometers and in the pursuit.Because she also competed in the mountain bike event at the 1996 Summer Games(18th),the Torino Games were the sixth in which she participated.On 12 February,she earned another silver medal,this one in the pursuit.On 24February,Neumannova skied in the 30-kilometer race and,at the age of 33,she won her first gold medal.
【答案解析】第一句话开始对卡特琳娜·诺曼诺娃的介绍时,译文照顾到中文读者多数不熟悉西方的冬奥会运动员,所以增加了她所属的国家,这是必要的;the Games in 1992指1992年的冬季奥运会,第二次奥运会是1994年,译者应该对历届冬奥会有所了解,理解原文简称所指,第三次她得奖牌是在1998年的冬奥会上。原文中她获得奖牌,三次用won,一次用earned,而译文的处理各不一样,生动不呆板。译文中“第一次品尝了奖牌的滋味”、“个人的第六次奥运之旅”、“33岁的她”都避免了原文的平铺直叙,表现了这位运动员锲而不舍、追求卓越的高尚精神。
