问题 Buying insurance (保险) is a way in which people can protect themselves against large losses . Protection against fire is one kind of insurance. Large numbers of people pay small sums of money to an insurance company. Although thousands of people have paid for fire insurance, only a few will lose their homes by fire. The insurance company will pay for these homes out of the small sums of money it had collected.

选项

答案 购买保险是人们保护自己免于遭受重大损失的一种方式。火险是保险的一种。许多人支付保险公司一小笔费用。虽然有成千上万的人购买了火险,但是只有少部分人的房子会遭受火灾。保险么司就从他们收取的许多投保人的一小笔一小笔的保费中拿出一部分来赔偿这少部分人的损失。

解析 翻译本段短文时,应注意定语从句的译法及增译技巧的运用,以使译文表达顺畅,符合汉语习惯。第一句中,in which people can protect themselves against large losses是限制性定语从句做后置定语修饰way,而汉语的定语成分通常放在被修饰词之前,故翻译时需将其前置。第四句的although引导让步状语从句,意为“虽然……”,翻译时应按照汉语的表达习惯增译“但是”两字。第五句中,it had collected是限制性定语从句做后置定语修饰money,翻译时需将其前置,其中,out of在本句中意为“从……中拿出”。
