“高考”用英語(yǔ)怎么說(shuō)？

高考是“高等學(xué)校招生全國(guó)統(tǒng)一考試“的簡(jiǎn)稱。在我國(guó)大部分地區(qū)，現(xiàn)階段在每年的6月7日和6月8日進(jìn)行，也就是說(shuō)，今天高考就正式落下帷幕了。那么”高考“用英語(yǔ)怎么說(shuō)呢?我們一起來(lái)學(xué)習(xí)吧*_*。

“高考”用英語(yǔ)怎么說(shuō)?

首先，英美國(guó)人對(duì)高考的理解貌似跟我們不太一樣，有些人認(rèn)為它可以籠統(tǒng)地算作一場(chǎng)考試，因此用的是單數(shù)exam;而有些人認(rèn)為它是一系列的考試，所以要用復(fù)數(shù)exams，各有各的道理。

其次，這個(gè)“高”(高等學(xué)校)是翻譯成college還是university?我們常常聽到的解釋是“college是學(xué)院，而university是綜合性大學(xué)”。其實(shí)都可以，尤其是在美國(guó)英語(yǔ)中，MacMillan English Dictionary - American是這樣解釋college的：in the U.S., a place that gives students degrees. A school of this type can also be called a university if it is large enough to give degrees in more than one subject。

因此，“高考”可譯為：

the national college entrance exam

直譯是“全國(guó)大學(xué)入門考試”。

注意事項(xiàng)：

1. 每個(gè)單詞一般都不大寫，除非在句首;

2. 其中的college說(shuō)成university也可以，exam用exams也可以。
