Neither of them has good translation from the Chinese: ( G' P7 q( h2 ]; D) W9 p3 @8 ?

1) 地坛位于北京东城区，明清两代皇帝都到那里祭拜土地。
$ G2 K4 M- Z+ B' U1 f
- l( V; n' C$ @& u; ]9 }7 ba) 这两句的前一句都无大问题，关键是第二句。 % G8 c2 |5 h2 H
b）第一个句子翻译本无大问题，但went 是向外的动作，最好跟there搭配 （与come向内搭配here成为一对）。所以并不说明第一句就无问题，但不是什么大问题。 7 u1 J6 V8 L ]+ E6 g# D, P( R
3 ^8 j# B( j9 c6 D5 \" p2 o2）第二句的问题比较大些，earth是专有名词，必须大写另带定冠词连用（the Sun, the Moon and the Earth). 第一句里的用法是正确的。 2 G9 s; V+ X( m
3）这句话很容易就被翻译成正规的汉语，就说明英语就很Chinglish(中式英语）。不妨在英语上再下些功夫，让它听起来更加English。

(新的英语翻译采用了不同的翻译形式：WHERE引起的非限定定语从句形式；这样就将两个简单句变成了一个复合句式。WHERE是关系副词，也是从句的关联词，所指的都是主句中的THE TEMPLE OF EARTH，文字上也在不改变愿意的基础上稍加修饰，不是那么“中国本土化”的英语了。另外第二句采用了倒装句法，形式更多样化）。
