Equivalence in translation includes :

  • A.the context
  • B.the form
  • C.the content, the form and the process
  • D.the process

Answer: C

The keyed answer is the content, the form and the process.

The passage says that, in some extreme theoretical positions, equivalence is defined as the identity of the content and also of the form and the processes at the various levels of linguistic structure. Option C names exactly these three. Context (A), form alone (B) and process alone (D) each leave out part of that definition.

The key rests on that one sentence. The passage then states its own conception, 'as we conceive it here', as the transfer of the content alone, and no option offers content alone, so the question is answered from the extreme position the passage describes rather than the author's own.
