Cultural elements are abundant in those texts. Therefore, the proper understanding and rendering of such messages is the key to the quality of TT translation. Based on Skopos theory the paper focuses on the translating strategies of TT cultural elements.展开更多

In order to draw more foreign tourists and demonstrate the unique charm and cultural deposits of Chinese landscapes, the translators should capitalize on appropriate translation methods so as to guarantee the translation quality.The thesis analyzes the guiding role of Skopos Theory in tourism texts with a lot of examples, taking the Hubei scenic-spot translation as a carrier, which has important guiding significanse to translators.展开更多

As an important bridge for cultural communication, the translation of tourism texts not only needs to convey information accurately, but also needs to take into account cultural differences and cognitive characteristics. Cognitive construal theory, as an emerging theoretical framework for translation, provides an understanding and explanation of different dimensions in translation practice by focusing on human cognitive processes. This paper investigates the English translation of several tourism texts based on the cognitive construal theory and examines the cognitive mechanisms reflected in the translated texts. The study shows that the four dimensions of the cognitive construal all have an important impact on the English translation of tourism texts;people from different countries or ethnic backgrounds have different cognitive construals, so translators should flexibly adjust their cognitive construals in order to achieve a specific translation purpose. This study helps people to understand translation activities from the perspective of cognitive construal and provides a reference for the practice of translating tourism texts.展开更多
