    2．⑤句“中国重要的经济大省”若字对字翻译是an important big economic province，显然不够准确，因此可转换一下说法，变成“在中国经济中起重要作用”，对应地即可译为serves as an important part in China's economy。
    3．⑥⑦⑧句中连续出现“增长(加)”，翻译时可变换多种表达，避免重复，比如increase by、grow by、see an increase of、rise by等。
    采分点二：理解结构
    1．③句后面两小句“文物古迹众多，文物数量居全国第一位”，逻辑联系紧密，且语意有重合之处，因此翻译时可直接“合二为一”，译为... owns many historic sites and the most artifacts in China，同时将这句话中第一个小短句的“文化历史厚重”处理成with引导的介词结构。
    2．⑤句后半部分与⑥句都在讲河南省的GDP，因此可将它们合并起来译成一句，而将⑤句前半部分单独译成一句，放在句首起总概括作用。
    3．⑨⑩句联系紧密，⑩句是对⑨句进行阐述，翻译时，可把⑩句处理成现在分词结构，从而将这两句并为一句。
