摘 要：
随着中国加入WTO，中国的旅游业发展得越来越迅速。尽管现在市场上有很多景点介绍的翻译材料，但是这些翻译的质量却是不尽人意。本文首先引用了奈达的对等功能理论。此理论认为意义是最重要的,形式其次，形式很可能掩藏源语的文化意义并阻碍文化交流。然后，本文比较了中英在景点介绍上的不同特点。中文的景点介绍文采优美，四字成语较多，然而在内容上却比较空洞主观。英文的景点介绍却与之相反，英语论文，它非常的客观，简单清晰，具有很强的逻辑性。接着从文化的角度阐述了为何会有这些异同的原因，尤其是思维上的异同导致了中英旅游景点介绍时具有许多不同的特征。最后，本文从文化异同的角度总结了几种比较正确的翻译措施找出了旅游资料中最常出现的中翻译问题的解决措施。
