When translating, translator should know Chinese culture well. That is to say, translator should translate the English word into Chinese according Chinese habit, culture. Sometimes, it is not better translate the the original meaning of English words into Chinese. In other words, it is anti-translated text or translation of the text in anti.
Sometimes, it needs exchange the category of words. Translator can find that it is need change the form of the words such as nouns, gerunds, non-finite verbs into verbs. Only in this way can translate a sentence or document well.
