English-Chinese Translation Practice Report Based on the “Understanding, Expression, and Adaptation” Framework

Taking the “European Policy Center Research Report” (excerpt) as an Example

Abstract

The European Policy Centre is an independent, not-for-profit think tank dedicated to fostering European integration through analysis and debate. Taking into account the context of the current era deeply affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, this article excerpts an article Addressing the Challenges of the Healthcare Workforce: Ensuring the Future of Health in Europe recently published by the agency. The article combines actual conditions and data in Europe and puts forward thoughts on how to improve healthcare systems after the pandemic. Using this as the corpus, this paper uses the “understanding, expression and adaptation” framework as theoretical support. The text is sorted, studied, and translated practices from these three aspects separately, with a view to further familiarizing themselves with the characteristics of political essays in practice, using classroom knowledge and mastering the translation techniques of political essays.
