自翻译本科专业(BTI)创办以来,关于其人才培养的模式业界已经展开了不少有益的探讨,对设置该专业的高校的办学具有一定指导意义。然而,在探讨过程中诸如翻译专业与外语专业、普通外语教师与双师型教师、翻译能力与技能、专才与通才等概念方面还有不甚清楚的地方。本研究发现,翻译与外语专业的主要区别在于翻译实践的内涵差异以及技能知识广度和深度的差异;普通外语教师与翻译本科专业教师的区分在于自身的职业化素质或对翻译职业了解的程度;翻译能力与技能就是抽象与具体的区分,两者相互依存、相辅相成;通才与专才是相对而言的两个概念,是因材施教的结果,也是因人而异的结果。各相关办学院校应该较为准确地了解这些概念,明确定位、理清思路、深挖内涵、固本清源,不断完善翻译本科专业的人才培养模式。 Since the establishment of BTI, there have been many beneficial discussions on the mode of cultivating talents in this field, which is of guiding significance to the running of higher education institutions. However, there are still some unclear concepts such as translation majors and foreign language majors, general foreign language teachers and double-qualified teachers, translation skills and skills, professionals and generalists in the process of exploration. This study found that the main difference between translation and foreign language major lies in the differences in translation practice as well as in the breadth and depth of knowledge and skills. The difference between ordinary foreign language teachers and translation undergraduates is their professionalization or their understanding of translation profession. Translation ability and skills are the abstract and concrete distinction. The two are interdependent and complement each other. The two concepts of generalism and specialization are relative results. They are the result of individualized teaching and result of different people. All relevant institutions of higher learning should understand these concepts more accurately, clarify their position, clarify their thinking, dig deep into their connotations, solidify their sources and keep improving the training model for undergraduate majoring in translation.
