2016年12月大學(xué)英語六級翻譯習(xí)題：圍棋

　　圍棋是兩位對弈者之間戰(zhàn)略性的棋盤游戲(board game)。圍棋已有 3000多年的歷史，可以說是所有古代棋類游戲的起源。圍棋的規(guī)則很簡單，但是有數(shù)不盡的策略。這就是圍棋的魅力所在。下一盤圍棋的時間短至15分鐘，長至數(shù)天。但是多數(shù)情況下，下一盤圍棋需要一或兩個小時。圍棋是綜合科學(xué)、藝術(shù)和競賽的游戲。圍棋對于智力發(fā)展、性格培養(yǎng)和靈活的策略學(xué)習(xí)非常有益。難怪圍棋已經(jīng)流行了幾千年，并逐漸成為一項國際文化游戲。

　　參考譯文:

The time for one round of weiqi can be as short as 15 minutes or as long as a few days. In most cases, though, it takes one or two hours to finish one round. Weiqi is a game that combines science, art and competition. It's beneficial for intelligence development, personality cultivation and flexible strategy learning. It's no wonder the game having been popular for thousands of years and is gradually becoming an international cultural game.
