2016年12月大學(xué)英語四級翻譯練習(xí)：蘇州園林

　　蘇州是中國著名的"園林城市(city of gardens)",在園林?jǐn)?shù)量和藝術(shù)性上都遠(yuǎn)勝于其他城市。蘇州的因林藝術(shù)有1500年的歷史。14世紀(jì)到20世紀(jì)之間的明淸時期是其園林建筑的貨金時期。這座城市里曾經(jīng)有超過200家私人園林。它們中的一些今天仍然保存良好。這些園林的獨特魅力使它們在1997年被列人世界文化遺產(chǎn)名錄(the list of World Cultural Heritage)。

　　參考譯文：

　　Suzhou is China s well-known city of gardens，which tops all other cities in both the number and the artistry of gardens. Suzhou's art of gardening has undergone a history of 1,500 years. The Ming and Qing Dynasties between the 14th and 20th century were its prime periods of garden building. At one time there were more than 200 private gardens in the city. A lot of them are still preserved in good condition today. The unique charm of these gardens has led to their entry into the list of World Cultural Heritage in 1997.
