本报告选取的文本来自美国作家斯科特·亚当斯（Scott Adams）的心理自助图书《重塑大脑：通往幸福和成功》 (Reframe Your Brain-the User Interface for Happiness and Success)。本文借助卡特福德的翻译转换理论，详细分析了心理自助图书在翻译过程中遇到的挑战，以及插图翻译过程中的难点，结合具体例句和图片分析了翻译转换在翻译过程中的运用。

翻译转换理论包含层次转换和范畴转换，本报告重点讨论范畴转换在翻译心理自助文本过程中的使用。考虑到心理自助文本的语言特点，本实践报告借助结构转换、类别转换、单位转换和系统内转换，对英文中的翻译难点进行转换处理。在英译汉中，译者需要根据汉英语言差异，把否定译为肯定，将名词转换为动词，将短语或从句转换为完整句子或主句，并需要联系上下文，翻译出词汇和短语的深层含义，从而符合汉语表达习惯。

报告还分析了心理自助文本中的插图翻译，借助翻译转换理论，联系插图目的和功能，并提出符际转换，需要译者分析插图的符际意义，将符际背后的逻辑关系体现在插图翻译中，让读者更容易理解插图的主旨和意义，展示了适应文化和语境差异的必要性。

The source text for this report is the self-help psychology book Reframe Your Brain-The User Interface for Happiness and Success by American author Scott Adams. Using Catford’s translation shifts theory, the article studied the challenges encountered during the translation process of self-help psychology books and the difficulties in translating illustrations, using specific examples and illustrations to illustrate the application of translation shifts theory in the translation process.

Translation shifts theory includes level shifts and category shifts, and this paper mainly focuses on using category shifts in translating self-help psychology books. Considering the linguistic features of such texts, this report utilized structural shifts, class shifts, unit shifts, and intra-system shifts to address the challenges in translating from English to Chinese. The translator needs to shift negations into affirmations, nouns into verbs, and phrases or clauses into complete sentences or main clauses, and interpret the deeper meanings of words and phrases to align with Chinese language conventions.

This report also examines the translation of illustrations in self-help psychology books, using translation shifts theory to connect the purpose and context of the illustrations. This report proposes intersemiotic shifts, requiring the translator to analyze the intersemiotic meaning of illustrations and reflect the underlying logical relationships in translations. This enables readers to grasp the main ideas of the illustrations better and demonstrates the necessity of adapting to cultural and contextual differences.
