Examine the excerpt extracted from “Localization from the Perspective of Translation Studies” (p. 2-3) by Anthony Pym and choose the alternative which DOES NOT CONTAIN features of the localization discourse:
Within localization models, translation is reduced to just one small step in a larger process. Most theorists of translation, of the other hand, would want to see localization as just a part of translation. This has given rise to considerable debate and more than a little discontent (see ISG 2003). Localization models mostly recognize two kinds of processes: internationalisation (for the centralized preparation of products) and localization proper (for the adaptation of the product to locales). Translation Studies, on the other hand, has long worked with three spaces for processes: production of the source text, intervention of the translator, and reception of the target text (or translation). From that perspective, some things seem to be missing in the localizer’s view of the world.
The following fragment is part of a Cooperation Agreement set between a Brazilian university and a foreign university:
3.7 – RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE HOSTING UNIVERSITIES
The host will agree to accept the prescribed number of exchange students, to enroll them as full time students of home university for the agreed upon period of study. The host university will assist students participating under the terms of this agreement, as far as possible, in finding suitable accommodation and will provide appropriate assistance in matters of health, language and local custom that may arise. The host university will appoint an individual who will provide advisory and other academic services to students participating in the exchange under the terms of this agreement.
With regards to the fragment above, please choose the CORRECT answer:
Sistemas de tradução automática disponíveis na internet apresentam-se como uma ferramenta alternativa de apoio ao tradutor. Todavia, traduções de alta qualidade exigem análise crítica e intervenção ativa, por parte do tradutor, sobre o texto apresentado pela ferramenta eletrônica. Abaixo, encontra-se o resumo em português de um artigo na área de Direito. Analise as duas versões apresentadas pelos tradutores automáticos Google e BabelFish e em seguida marque a alternativa INCORRETA.
O Direito não se desenvolve na exatidão de um cálculo matemático. É necessário o reconhecimento dos fatores históricos e axiológicos que permeiam a produção jurídica, sob o risco de se cair na escuridão do resumo do Direito à lei.
Tradução automática apresentada pelo Google Tradutor:
The law does not develop in the accuracy of a mathematical calculation. recognition of historical and value factors is necessary that permeate the legal production, at the risk of falling in the darkness of the summary of law to law.
Tradução automática apresentada pelo BabelFish:
The law develops in a mathematical calculation accuracy. It is necessary to the recognition of historical and axiológicos factors that permeate the legal production, under the risk of falling into the darkness of the summary of the law.
De acordo com os autores de Traduzir com autonomia, é importante identificar Uts, unidades de tradução, que seriam itens lexicais desconhecidos, estruturas sintáticas incompreensíveis e ambiguidades semânticas de difícil solução. Com base nessa informação, assinale a alternativa mais adequada para a tradução do título do artigo “Experiências de enfermeiras brasileiras profissionais no cuidado de pacientes com AIDS”:
Please, read the following text in order to answer questions 21 to 25.
Are scientists leaving the net?
The scientists who helped create the Internet may be leaving it for less crowded cyberspaces. Having been on the Internet longer than the rest of us, scientists use it differently.
Premier researchers use the Internet to test projects like real-time, 3D models of colliding galaxies or rampaging tornadoes. For tasks like that, the Internet is no longer fast enough or reliable enough. And some scientists are frustrated. For them, the information superhighway is full of bumper-to-bumper traffic.
Visionary engineers at the National Science Foundation, fortunately, have long foreseen such congestion. As an alternative, they created the very high-speed Backbone Network Service (VBNS). It links a handful of government and university labs at speed of 155,000,000 bits per second, or 10,000 times faster than a standard modem. By the year 2000, a new generation of equipment and another round of research could give scientists data pipes 12 times faster than that. Among other tricks, these new high bandwidth networks will allow scientists to manipulate huge computer files so unwieldy they are now shipped by four-wheeled means. “Never underestimate the bandwidth of a pick-up truck full of data”, jokes Daniel Sandin of the University of Illinois.
Sandin and his team in Chicago will use the VBNS to immerse goggled humans at different locations into the same type of jaw-dropping virtual reality simulation generated by a supercomputer. “You could not do that on the Internet,” says Thomas Defanti, Sandin’s colleague. “The Internet is so congested that for any kind of highbandwidth use, it is essentially rendered useless.”
“Simply adding lanes is not going to work,” adds Beth Gaston of the National Science Foundation. “Our role is to spur the technology forward” – Mark Uheling.
