英语六级翻译训练题及答案:信用卡

信用卡(credit card)是由银行发行的卡,持卡人可以凭卡赊购(buy on credit) 商品和服务。使用信用卡最大的好处就是能给持卡人带来极大的方便。人们可以 使用信用卡赊购他们需要的东西,并在一段时期内付淸欠款,而不必随身携带大量的现金。但如此的便利也带来了一些问题,如恶意透支(malicious overdraft)。还会剌激使用者超前消费,容易产生月光族。在消费的时候,使用信用卡会促使消费者更加冲动地购物,甚至购买一些平时不怎么用的商品。

参考译文:

Information: A credit card is a card issued by a bank that allows cardholders to buy goods and services on credit. The greatest benefit of using a credit card is the immense convenience it brings to cardholders. People can use credit cards to buy what they need on credit and pay off the debt within a certain period, without having to carry large amounts of cash with them. However, such convenience also brings about some problems, such as malicious overdrafts. It can also encourage users to overspend and easily lead to the emergence of the "moonlight clan." When making purchases, using a credit card can prompt consumers to shop more impulsively, even buying goods that they don't usually use.
