推薦:2015年12月大學(xué)英語四級翻譯練習(xí)匯總
請將下面這段話翻譯成英文:
三手煙是指在吸煙幾小時或幾天之后仍然殘留在地毯、衣物以及其他物品中的煙污染。據(jù)研究,許多人,尤其是煙民,都不知道三手煙會危害人們的健康。在接受調(diào)查的1500名煙民和非煙民中,絕大部分人都認同二手煙的危害。但當(dāng)他們被問到是否知曉“吸入前一天有人吸煙的屋子里的空氣會危害你的健康”時,只有65%的非煙民和43%的煙民回答是肯定的。
參考譯文:
Third-hand smoke refers to the tobacco smoke contamination that lingers on carpets, clothes and other materials hours or days after smoking.According to a study, a large number of people,particularly smokers, have no idea that the third-hand smoke is a health hazard for people. Of the 1,500 smokers and nonsmokers surveyed,the vast majority agree that second-hand smoke is harmful.But when asked whether they agreed with the statement,“Breathing air in a room where people smoked yesterday can harm your health,”only 65% of nonsmokers and 43% of smokers gave the affirmative answer.
