英汉新闻翻译中平衡译者身份的翻译方法
Translation Methods for Balancing Translator’s Identity in English-Chinese Journalistic Translation

在新闻翻译中，译者由于其“把关人”的身份，往往难以在源语与译语文化中保持身份平衡。文章通过研究英汉新闻翻译中的案例，探讨新闻译者应该如何在保持译语文化身份与满足译语读者需求的同时，传达异质文化之声。为此，文章以新华通讯社主办的报纸《参考消息》为例，分析新闻译者使用了何种翻译方法。文章发现，《参考消息》译者使用报道词将原文转化为受读者审视的客体，提高译文客观性；将原文评价客观化，在尽量不修改原文的基础上考虑译者读者的需求；使用译者注，在传播源语文化的基础上扩大译语文化对他者的接受程度、维护其文化惯例。因此，采用报道词、评价客观化与译者注的方法，可使新闻译者的身份在源语与译语间保持平衡。
In journalistic translation, it may be difficult for translators to keep their position unbiased between source language and target language culture due to their identity as “gatekeepers.” This paper discusses how journalistic translators maintain their cultural identity and satisfy target text readers while conveying the voice of source language culture by scrutinizing cases from English-Chinese journalistic translation. By selecting cases from Reference News, the newspaper hosted by the Xinhua News Agency, this paper analyzes the translation methods used by journalistic translators. This paper concludes that the translators of Reference News use reporting verbs and phrases to convert source text into objects that readers scrutinize, improving the objectivity of the translation. Meanwhile, authors’ remarks are neutralized to ensure that the demand of readers is satisfied based on the least distorted translation. Furthermore, the translator’s notes are used to communicate the source language culture while increasing the tolerance of the target language culture to another culture and maintaining its own cultural conventions. Therefore, reporting phrases, neutralized remarks, and translator’s notes may be used to ensure the translator’s balanced identity between the target language and the source language.
