Features: This textbook is divided into 15 units, each consisting of three parts: "Text," "Translation Key Points and Techniques," and "Exercises." Based on general linguistic rules, we first categorize the text into two major types: "Narrative" and "Dialogue." The Narrative section includes 10 units: "Argumentative Essays," "Political Essays," "Economic Essays," "News Reports," "Public Documents," "Speeches," "Descriptive Scenario Articles," "Nostalgic Articles," "Humorous Articles," and "Inferential Articles." The Dialogue section comprises five units: "Dialogue between Men," "Dialogue between Brothers," "Dialogue between Lovers," "Dialogue between Mother and Child," and "Dialogue between Women," forming a concise system.
Each "Text" includes one Japanese-to-Chinese translation and one Chinese-to-Japanese translation. In some units, multiple short passages are included based on their characteristics. After each text, there are "Word and Sentence Explanations" accompanied by "Reference Translations." These texts are composed of practical language corpora, with none being artificially created. It can be said that this is a meticulously compiled, comprehensive textbook for translation practice.
Depending on the unit, the "Translation Key Points and Techniques" section provides summaries and demonstrates relevant translation skills. In the subsequent "Exercises," carefully selected language corpora are included to allow learners to practice targetedly. Each exercise is followed by a "Reference Translation," offering valuable guidance for self-assessment.
