Yet consensus on the issue has almost never been reached among theorists and practitioners. In this paper, a detailed comparison between academic and professional assessment has been made mainly in terms of text type, assessment criteria and models. It is believed that a ＂one size fits all＂ model across academy and industry is neither possible nor necessary. However, the gaps in between could be narrowed down by increasing communication and cooperation between theorists and practitioners, who are advised to turn their focus to translator＇s competence and evaluation process.展开更多

At the beginning, when Chinese students start to learn a second language, they need to translate the second language such as English into Chinese in the first hand, and this procedure will help them to understand and learn English better. For English language translation teachers, they need to research and create the suitable, effective method of learning English translation for most students constantly in order to improve the English translation learning efficiency of the Chinese students. The local culture of China is quite different from the culture of other English speaking countries. When our Chinese students study English language translation, at the same time, they need to learn the different culture in different countries and learn how to accept and face up the cultural background difference between our country and the other English speaking countries. In the meantime, during the time of teaching English translation, the English translation subject teachers need to guide the students to learn and understand the difference in practice, and help them to establish a comprehensive and correct idea of learning English translation through teaching correct and different translation skills.展开更多

But, the relationship of the two can not be generalized in the simple relation of theory and practice, for both of them there are theoretical and practical contents, the development of themselves plays a positive promoting role on the development of each other. Contrastive linguistics also exerting various influences on practice of translation.Contrastive linguistics and translation have a very close relationship, to apply the theory of comparative linguistics to translation studies will undoubtedly have to play a guiding role in the practice of translation, translation involves at least two languages, so it inevitably involve communication and transformation of two different cultures. This paper discusses the relationship between them from the perspective of vocabulary, grammar and discourse pragmatics to better direct the translation.展开更多
