难句译注
1. Thislatterisreallyjustanexcuseforvisualeffects,andforoncetheperformersbecomemerelyclothshangersonwhichtoputelaborategarments.
[结构简析]foronce=forjustonce就这一次
[参考译文]后者确实就是为了视觉效果,就这一次,演员成了仅仅是套上精致衣服的衣架子。
2. Usuallyinonescenethereneedstobetheflavorofwhatisnewestatthemomentinclothes.Itisalwaysagoodideatomakeuseofamoderngimmickandtopointitinsomewayifthiscanbeconvenientlyfittedintothescheme.
[结构简析]两句句子。
Tomakeuseof利用,topoint强调。
[参考译文]一般说来,在一幕里,需要有当时服装上最新款式和风格。
如果便于和演出设计相吻合的话,利用当时的机关并给以适当突出也不失为好办法。
3. Theaudiencecomestopantomimetohavetheeyefeastedasmuchasforanyotherpurpose,thusmakingagreatchanceforthedesignertoexcel。
[结构简析]注意后面thusmaking…的译法。
[参考译文]观众来看哑剧,不仅为了大饱眼福,还有其它目的。
这就给了设计者展示才能超越别人的大好机会。
