和感染力，生动活泼，节奏感很强。
月光如流水一般，静静地泻在这一片叶子和花上。薄薄的轻雾浮起在荷塘里，叶子和花仿佛在牛乳中洗过一样；又像笼着轻纱的梦。（朱自清《荷塘月色》） Moonlight cascaded like water over the locus leaves and flowers, and a light blue mist floating up from the pool made them seem washed in milk or caught in a gauzy dream.
水是怎样地开心呵，她将那可怜的失路的小红叶儿，推推挤挤地推到一个漩涡里，使他滴滴溜溜地打圆圈儿；那叶向前不得，向后不得，急得几乎哭出来；水笑嘻嘻地将手一松，他才一溜烟地逃走了。
How happy the water is! At first she pushes and elbows the pitiful misled maple leaf into a water whirl, making it rapidly swirl in circle. There the leaf can neither move forward nor backward. Being too worried, it nearly bursts out crying. It is only when the water loses her grip grinningly that the little maple leaf gets swiftly away. 在我们的左面，住有一家砍砍柴，卖卖菜，人家死人或娶亲，去帮帮忙跑跑腿的人家。
Residing on our left was a family that cut firewood when there was firewood to cut and peddled vegetables when there were vegetables to peddle, or when there were funerals or weddings going on they’d offer to do legwork.（郁达夫《我的梦，我的青春》，刘士聪译）

6.2.2语境与蕴含意义
语境决定着词语蕴含意义的理解和表达，这是翻译中有解决的关键问题。只有这样，才能得出“功能相似，意义相符”的译文。 语境分为：语言语境、文化语境和情景语境 2.2.1 语言语境对翻译的影响
语言语境指上下文，即词、短语、语句或者篇章的前后关系。具体而言，是词的搭配关系（collocation）和词在句子或者语篇中的位置。正如Firth所言, You shall know a word by the company it keeps. 处在特殊搭配关系中的多义词，其义项就会明朗化，它有助于多义词的辨析。 “红包”：gift money, bonus, bribes.
…..路上浮尘早已刮净，剩下一条洁白的大道来，车夫也跑得更快。
By now the loose dust had all been blown away, leaving the roadway clean and the rickshaw man quickened his pace. （鲁迅《一件小事》，杨宪益、戴乃迭译） 所以，词典不可缺，但不能盲从。 身体好，学习好，工作好。 Keep fit, study well and work hard.
从她的言语中可以看出她对前夫始终怀有一种复杂的感情。
Judging from what she said, she always had mixed feelings for her ex-husband. 洗手的时候，日子从水盆里过去；吃饭的时候，日子从饭碗里过去；发呆的时候，便从木然的双眼前过去。
The day flows away in the sink when washing our hands, wears off in the bowl when eating our meals, and passes away in our daydream when staring blankly. （朱自清《匆匆》，朱纯深译）
原文通过刻意重复来营造韵律，增强力度，以达到修辞效果。但是，英语中同一词组的反复出现很少见，所以译文采用译入语的审美模式，运用三个同义词组来传神达意，使得美感功能和信息功能对等。 《天下第一鼓——陕北安塞腰鼓》
The Majestic Ansai Waist Drum Dance of Northern Shaanxi
但我相信，那种哀怨的无声诉说，一定是一种生命的绝唱！
Yet I believe those plaintive silent words must be a masterpiece singing the praises of life!
我接着便有许多话，想要连珠一般涌出……但又觉得被什么当着似的，单在脑子里回旋，吐不出口外去。（鲁迅《故乡》）
a) There were so many things then to talk about that I wanted to spew them out like a string of beads… But something seemed to hold me back. Everything just swirled around in my head and I couldn’t get the words out.（杨宪益、戴乃迭1956年译文）
b) After this there were so many things I wanted to talk about, they should have poured out like a string of beads… But I was tongue-tied, unable to put all I was thinking into words.
（杨宪益、戴乃迭1980年译文）
2.2.2 文化语境对翻译的影响
文化语境是制约语义的重要的非语言语境之一，主要包括话语使用者的主观因素（心里、情感、意图）、宏观的社会背景（时代、阶级、民族、习俗、政治、文化、经济）等。

a) wear clothes of cotton and eat vegetables b) wear coarse clothes and eat simple food
