Практикум по синхронному переводу с русского языка на английский

в этих условиях — while a literal translation is possible here (and even
a non-nominative construction, — "in these conditions," — a simple
"therefore" or "as a result" would also do. Very often "in these
circumstances" is a much smoother translation of "в этих условиях" than
"in these conditions."

16. 
    форсированными темпами — lends itself to a "There has been"
    construction, particularly if the interpreter does not have a text. With a
    text, of course, the sentence structure could be inverted: "New anti-drug
    legislation is being rapidly drawn up."
    

16. 
    в Государственной Думе — another good example of "think
    nominative." "The Duma adopted at a first reading" is clearly much better
    than "In the Duma there was adopted..."
    

18. 
    на рассмотрение парламентариев — "The parliamentarians will be
    considering," the active mood, is much stronger than "for consideration
    by the parliamentarians," which then leads to some very awkward
    constructions: "is being proposed also the draft law..."
    

18. 
    определенные результаты — "определенные" can often better be
    rendered as "some" rather than by "definite" or "certain."
    

18. 
    наращивается — the reflexive verb is best rendered by a "there is" or
    "there has been" construction.
