一、积累要素
攻读口译的过程实际上是一个积累的过程。先有积累，后有提高;没有日积月累，就没有扎实的功底和切实的提高。课堂听课、课后复习。大量精美语句、闪光说法、
地道表达的积累其实都是为最后的输出打基础。由于学生在学习过程中的被动性和置身于大量语言信息中的困惑性、盲目性，因此，任课教师将起到为学生进行目标量化、知识积累和引导学习的作用。
以下是一些汉译英例句：
1.我们“五一”放长假让“非典”给“搅黄”了。英文是Our May Day holidays were spoiled//ruined by SARS.
2.他来了，憋足了劲要决一雌雄。英文是He came，spoiling for a showdown(摊牌)./He came，determined to see who was stronger.
3.你会发现他这个人很讲信用。英文是You will find that he’s as good as his word. /You’ll，find that he is a trustworthy man./You'll，find that he is a man of honor.
4.我的直觉告诉我，我们的新老板做的比所承诺的还要宽厚、大方。英文是My intuition tells me that our new boss is better than his word./My first impression On our new boss tells me that he is kinder and more generous than what what he has promised others.
5.是要龙虾呢还是要螃蟹，我拿不定主意。英文是l can’t make up my mind. I can’t decide between the lobster and the crab./I’m not sure whether 1 should, order//take the lobster Or the crab.
6.他的脸上明显流露着内疚的神情。英文是Guilt was written all over his face./Obviously we could see//tell from his facial expression that he felt guilty.
7.他的英语并没什么了不起的。英文是His English is nothing much to write home about.vs.His English is, in fact，so so./he speaks so--so English.
8.我刚来了一个星期的时间.所以一切还在摸索着干呢。英文是I’ve only been here for one week， so I’m still finding my feet./...so I’m still learning.
9.我30岁出头时才找到了//发现了自我。英文是I began to find myself in my early thirties.
10.告诉我你对她怎么着了?你哑巴了吗?英文是Tell me what you have done to her! Have you lost your tongue?/...Are you dumb?
我们的课本上以及许多老师自己补充的资料上面都有大量精美的、地道的语句，这就是上课过程中的亮点之所在。总体处理的原则是：英译汉越符合中国人的口头表达习惯越好，因为这样才能“地道”。汉译英先从简(为了顺利转换和交际的目的)，再寻求精美(英语中的地道)!
二、灵活要素
翻译过程中，我们在许多地方受阻，主要是蒙头硬冲的结果.文字表达是“柔性的”，最能“克刚”，因此，硬冲肯定不是办法。我们必须凭借“迂回表达法”。像上面的“哑巴”，如果我们不知道dumb这个单词，这并不应该妨碍我们交际过程中的表达，毕竟我们会说，a person who can't speak。同样，如果我们要讲“我得好好收拾收拾他”，但不知道“收拾”怎么表达才地道，最起码我们学过“teach sb a lesson”，我们还可以说“give him some color”，或干脆再迂回一下这样来表达1 will be very angry with him，and then he'll remember me forever!当然，如果知道“I'll fix him up”就更好了。
课堂资料中，太多的东西需要采取一种迂回的表达才能渡过难关，这种意识的培养实际上就是在培养一种处世不惊、遇事不乱的“灵活性”。例如：
1.许多大科学家一生钟爱艺术，且懂艺术，从中汲取养料，培养浩然正气，或得到人生最大宽慰。相反，能热爱并且理解自然科学和工程技术的文学艺术家真可谓凤毛麟角。英文是Many great scientists love art all their lives.They understand it and absorb nutrients from it (benefit from it).They foster an upright spirit out of it，and very often，find the greatest//ultimate pleasure//comfort from it. Quite the opposite，artists who both love and understand natural science and engineering technology are really rare(are the rarity of rarity)。
2.他们创造了令人叹为观止的音乐传播手段，从最早的机械留声机到今天五花八门的电子媒体。英文是They have created amazing//fascinating means of music transmission，ranging from the earliest gramophones to the miscellaneous//different kinds of electronic media of nowadays.
3.对于有文化的女性来说，她们不是把家庭当成依赖。她们找的是知音，是精神上可以信任和理解的人。英文是。To those educated women，families are not what they depend on，What they seek for is a bosom friend，a person who is spititually trustworthy and one she can really understand.
无论是老师还是学生都应该去广泛收集一些特别地道的英汉语句，用以强化训练自己的变通能力，这一点非常有意义。
