Abstract Prose, known as beautiful writing, is famous for its graceful and elegant language. There are two meanings of prose. One refers to all the literary writings with the exception of poetry, fiction and drama. And the other refers to the literary prose which is often written in a narrative or lyric way, widening in sources, flexible in style of writing, shortening in length and expressive in passage. There are three common kinds of prose, narrative prose, lyric prose and argumentative prose.
According to the differences between western and eastern culture, the characteristics of English and Chinese prose are also different in various ways. English prose lays much more emphasis on hypotaxis and puts main part backward. However, Chinese prose lays much more emphasis on paratactic and puts main part forward. The most distinct difference between English and Chinese prose style is that English prose is plain buy Chinese prose is charming. Therefore, prose translation should be defined as a special topic to be studied due to its specific characteristics.

摘要 散文素有“美文”之称，以其优美，清新隽永的语言以及丰富的精神见解而闻名。散文有两种含义：广义的散文指除诗歌、小说、戏剧以外的所有具有文学性的散行文章。狭义的散文指文艺性散文，它是一种以记叙或抒情为主，取材广泛、笔法灵活、篇幅短小、情文并茂的文学样式。常见的散文有叙事散文、抒情散文和议论散文。
由于文化差异，中英散文特点也各有不同。英语散文注重形合，汉语散文注重意合；英语散文中心在前，汉语散文重心在后；英文属静态语言，汉语属动态语言……英汉的散文风格众多，最明显的是英语散文风格朴实，而汉语散文风格绮丽。故而在英汉互译中，散文翻译需另有研究。
本篇论文将通过对于奈达翻译理论的研究，以及严复的“信达雅”理论辅助，分以下五个部分进行阐述。第一部分为介绍；第二部分为研究散文翻译中的词汇对等；第三部分为研究散文翻译中的句法对等；第四部分为研究散文翻译中的篇章对等；第五部分为通过对文体对等的分析研究总结英汉散文翻译技巧与策略并得出结论。
