问题 Undergraduate students can check out UP to five books for two weeks. Graduate students can check out up to fifteen books for two months. Books can be renewed (续借)up to two times. There is a 50-cents-a-day late fee for overdue books. Periodicals (期刊) and reference books cannot be checked out. The library is open weekdays, from 8:00 a.m to 9:30 p.m., and on Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. The library is closed on Sundays.

选项

答案本科生最多可借5本书,借期两用。研究生最多可借15本书,借期两个月,所借图书最多可续借两次。如逾期不还,则每逾期一天支50美分的罚款。期刊和参考书不予外借。图书馆开放时间如理:周一至周五:早8:00至晚9:30;周六:早9:00至晚8:30。周日不开收。

解析 本文是图书馆的一个借书和开放时间说明,其中涉及到了各类学生的表达,如undergraduate意为“本科生”,graduate意为“研究生”。另外check out,renew,late fee分别意为“借书”、“续借”、“超期费,罚款”,这些表达都是借书活动中的常用词汇。在翻译时需注意有些句子包含的信息量较大,如果采用拆译的方法,会使译文表达更简洁明了。如首句,“Undergraduate students can check out up to five books for two weeks.”本句如直译则有欠通顺,不如拆译为“本科生最多可借五本书,借期两周。”事实上第二句、第四句和倒数第二句都可采用此方法。
