摘　　要：Language is closely related to characters. Chinese characters differ from English words. So in the course of cross-cultural translation, they may cause mislooking because of spelling;mislistening because of pronunciation and miscomprehending because of semantic meaning, and so on. As a matter of fact, a translator may face many difficulties of linguistic transfer, difficulties that are sometimes almost insurmountable. The author uses some examples from the two English versions to analyze and illustrate it.Language is closely related to characters. Chinese characters differ from English words.
