【昨日回顾】

This alone demonstrates that the television business is not an easy world to survive in a fact underlined by statistics that show that out of eighty European television networks no less than 50% took a loss in 1989.

这一点就足以证明，要在电视行业里生存下来并非易事。统计数字尤其说明了这一事实，（数据表明）在80个欧洲电视网中，一半或更多在1989年是亏损的。

【今日长难句】2017年第49题

Creating a “European identity” that respects the different cultures and traditions which go to make up the connecting fabric of the Old continent is no easy task and demands a strategic choice—that of producing programs in Europe for Europe.

【词的处理】

European identity 欧洲认同；

fabric n. 织物；布；组织；构造；建筑物

Old continent 欧洲旧大陆

strategic adj. 战略上的，战略的

program n. 程序；计划；大纲；节目

【翻译技巧】

当从句特别多，尤其是从句套从句的时候，从句作为修饰成分，一般建议将从句单独处理成句子，并根据汉语意思在理解和翻译时顺序适当调整语序。很多同学翻译不成人话的根源在于：逐字翻译，死板的按照英文原文单词的意思进行堆砌。

【句子结构】

1）主干：Creating a “European identity” is no easy task and demands strategic choice.

2）that respects the different cultures and traditions 为定语从句，修饰European identity; 该从句内嵌套定语从句which go to make up the connecting fabric of the Old continent修饰different cultures and traditions

3）最后that of producing programs in Europe for Europe 对choice 进行说明，that 指代choice。

【参考翻译】

Creating a “European identity” that respects the different cultures and traditions which go to make up the connecting fabric of the Old continent is no easy task and demands a strategic choice — that of producing programs in Europe for Europe.

译文1：

创造一种“欧洲认同”绝非易事而且需要战略性选择。这种“欧洲认同”要尊重将旧大陆编织成一个整体的不同文化和传统。战略性选择就是在欧洲制作出适合欧洲的节目。

译文2：

不同的文化和传统把欧洲大陆编织成一体，要创造出一种尊重这些不同文化和传统的“欧洲品牌”绝非易事，它需要一个战略性选择：在欧洲制造出适合欧洲的节目。

In dealing with a challenge on such a scale, it is no exaggeration to say “Unity we stand, divided we fall”—and if I had to choose a slogan it would be “Unity in our diversity.”
