小学科技英语
『壹』 科技英语的主要内容
科技英语反映的是日新月异的科学技术领域内的发展与创新。为了准确、科学地对这些新的进展与理论加以阐述,科技工作者们在遣词方面下了很大的功夫。
科技词汇的词形一般较长,多源于希腊语和拉丁语。据美国科技英语专家Oscar E. Nybaken统计,在一万个普通英语的词汇中,约有46%的词汇源于拉丁语,7.2%源于希腊语。尤其在专业性极强的科技英语词汇中,这种比例就更高。例如:dynamics,electric,physics,pneumonia等(李庆明,2002)。希腊语和拉丁文之所以能成为科技词汇的基本来源,是因为这两种语言都是“死”语言,不会由于社会的发展而引起词义的变化,也不因词的多义引起歧义。
在科技文章中,同一词语词义的多专业化,即同一个英语常用词不仅被多个专业采用,而且含义也各不相同,区别很大。
科技英语中经常使用缩略语。随着现代科学的高速发展,缩略语将日益增多,往往一个缩略语可代表几十个词义。在科技英语中缩略语的构成方式有三种:
1.将词的部分截缩而构成新词,如parachute —chute(降落伞)。
2.将词组中的每个词的首字母加在一起构成新词,首字母缩略词,如Unidentified Flying Object –UFO(不明飞行物)。
3.从两个单词中抽出部分字母而构成新词,如telegram exchange –telex(电传)。
大量地使用名词和名词组。英语比汉语更广泛地使用名词,科技英语中这种现象更为突出。如科技文章中不说 We can improve its performance by using superheated steam.而说 an improvement of its performance can be achieved by the use of superheated steam.为了简短而明确地表达某一概念或事物,科技英语还广泛地使用名词词组,如energy lose, a day and night weather observation station。 在科技英语中经常使用的语法结构相当多,如被动语态句使用得很广泛。这是因为科技文章的主要目的是讲述客观现象,介绍科技成果等,使用被动句比使用主动句更少主观色彩。因此在科技英语中,凡是在不需要或不可能指出行为主体的场合,或者在需要突出行为客体的场合都使用被动语态。例如:For separating iron from the impurities the iron ore must be melted.
在科技英语中经常使用“It is (was)…that”这一强调句,如:It is heat that causes many chemical changes.
科技英语用于表达科学理论、原理、规律、概述以及各事物之间错综复杂的关系,而复杂的科学思维是无法使用简单句来表达,所以语法结构复杂的长句较多地应用于科技英语,而这种严谨周密、层次分明、重点突出的语言手段也就成了科技英语文体又一重要特征。如:Laser, its creation being thought to be one of today’s wonders, is nothing more than a light ①that differs from ordinary lights only in②that it is many times more powerful and so be applied in fields ③that no ordinary light or other substance has ever been able to get in.
直译法科技文章中所涉及的内容很少存在文化差异,科技词汇的意义也比较专一,所以很多词直译是能够为大众所接受。例如: surftheinternet(网上冲浪)、whitecollar(白领)、gamepoint(局点)、 genetically-modifiedfood(转基因食品)等。
音译法用发音相似的汉字来翻译,这时汉字不再有其原义,只保留其语音和书写形式。音译主要用于人名、地名、公司名及商标名等专有名词的翻译。例如:mosaic(马赛克)、disco(迪斯科)、Ken. tucky(肯德基)、bikini(tL~/E)等。翻译这类词时如耐心推敲,可达到音意兼顾、优雅易记的效果。如美国的化妆品Revlon被巧妙地译为“露华浓”,让人联想到李白描写杨贵妃花容月貌的名诗: “云想衣裳花想容,春风拂槛露华浓。”
半音半意法当直译和音译无法将科技新词的科技内涵准确地表达出来时,就要采用这种方法,它主要用于复合外来词的翻译。例如: milkshake(奶昔)、mini—skirt(迷你裙)、waterballet(水上芭蕾)、ice— cream(冰淇淋)、DoMingpape道林纸)、breakdance(霹雳舞)等。随着科技的发展、思维的进步,反映现实的语言也在不断发展以满足社会的需要。语言中最敏感的部分是词汇,这种发展变化在科技英语词汇里表现得尤其突出。要做好科技英语文献的翻译,就要认真研究科技英语词汇的特点及翻译技巧,了解词语后的科技内涵,必将有助于科技术语汉译这项复杂的工作.并能指导我们研究许多其他具体的语言问题 语篇也就是我们通常所说的篇章,是由一组相互连贯的句子组成的。语篇的语义结构和语篇机制,即衔接手段确保了语言由句子组成语篇,从而形成了一个有机的整体,所以对这一层面的分析包括了衔接手段和语篇结构(吴洁,2003)。
词汇衔接
词汇的重复出现可以减少语言在传递中产生的歧义,使读者易于正确地理解作者所要论述的客观事实或复杂的认识过程,体现了科技英语的准确性。如:Many stories abort the spread of AIDS are false. You cannot get AIDS working or attending with someone who has the disease. You cannot get it by touching drinking glasses or other objects used by such persons.
逻辑连接
通过逻辑连接手段的运用,读者可以了解句子的语义联系,甚至可经前句从逻辑上预见后续句的语义(胡壮麟,1994),体现了科技英语的逻辑推理性和严密性。如:Microsurgery is helping to solve all kinds of medical problems that had been thought hopeless. For example, doctors can use the technique to restore blood flow to the brain to prevent strokes. And they can reopen parts of the reproctive system so some men and women who are not fertile can have children. Eye and ear doctors have used the techniques of microsurgery since the 1920s. But it was not until the early 1970s that doctors began to develop a better understanding of the possibilities of microsurgery.

『叁』 科技英语与普通英语的主要区别是什么
普通英语注重日常交流,比较随性;科技英语注重学术研究,比较规范;不严谨的可以表述为:科技英语=普通英语+专业词汇及表达方式。另外,科技英语多用陈述句,较少用问句及祈使句等。

『伍』 一篇关于科技的英语作文
The development of science and technology makes our life more comfortable and convenient. However, scientists have created many problems, which are not easy to be resolved, such as air pollution, the deterioration of environment and the scarcity of natural resources, to which we must some solutions.
Modern science and technology render people many advantages. Modern telecommunication shortens the distance between people and makes communication much easier. Internet is widely used now not only for collection of abundant information but also for correspondence. Email, the most effective communication device now, is becoming very popular. Besides, telephone and mobile phone make contact more convenient than before.
Modern transportation, such as airplanes and high-speed trains make our journey smooth and fast. With the help of modern transportation, people can go everywhere they prefer to. The journey to outer space and other planets is not a dream any more. Rockets and space shuttles can help us realize the dream of space travel.
『陆』 小学生英语作文,新科技
I have many hobbies, such as reading, writing, singing, drawing, watching TV and doing exercise. I think hobbies can make my life colorful. And I can make friends easier, because we have common interests and we have many things to talk about. Besides, having some hobbies can bring knowledge to me. For example, reading is a good way to get knowledge. I can not learn all from class, so reading can bring me other knowledge. Singing and drawing are skills. They can help me to improve myself.
『柒』 什么是科技英语
具体内容请参考周春晖的《科技英语写作》
但从这个 http://www.cdrtvu.com/file_post/display/topic.php?TopicCode=5502&PHPSESSID= “科技英语专业”内容来内看,并没有容什么特别。
搜索的时候看到这样一句话“英语就是英语,什么叫科技英语,学习英语最好的办法就是看剧”,科技英语即有人说的非常狭隘的外语教育,比如商业英语,管理英语之类
『捌』 科技英语与日常英语的主要区别是什么
科技英语与日常英语是有区别的.当然首先都离不开公共英语这个基础.科技英语是内在公共英语的基容础上进行的,科技英语有它本身的的专业词汇,比方说,机械,化工等英语都是属于科技英语的范畴.科技英语有常用的词汇.
