题目（英文）：

OnFormalCorrespondenceandDynamicEquivalenceofEugeneA.Nida---TakingtheEnglishVersionofToLivebyYuHuaasanExample

摘要

在西方，等值问题一直是翻译界的中心话题。

奈达的等值理论自80年代传入中国以来，对中国的翻译界产生了深刻的影响，他认为，等值可分为形式等值和动态等值（后用功能等值代替）。

形似等值一原文为中心，追求最求形式和内容信息上的对等，常常为了呈现不同文化的异域风格。

动态等值理论认为意义和精神是翻译的重点，力求使是译语读者能够产生于源语读者相同的反应。

本文以中国著名作家余华的小说《活着》为例，分析形式对等和动态对等在文学作品中的应用与它们之间的不同点。

希望读者在体会奈达等值理论科学性的同时，也能归纳出其中的不足之处，并对以后的翻译工作有所帮助。
