Both quantitative and qualitative approaches are adopted. Research materials used are the Chinese-English translation tasks from college entrance examinations in Taiwan. Research subjects include 68 third-year senior high school students, who are categorized as high achievers and low achievers according to their English performance on the General Scholastic Ability Test. Descriptive statistical analyses are conducted to examine students’ use of articles, pronouns, passive voice, tenses, conjunctions, parts of speech, word order, and punctuation in the Chinese-English translation tasks. Qualitative data collected from retrospective interviews is analyzed and further explores students’ difficulties concerning translation. The quantitative results are as follows. In terms of pronouns, passive voice, conjunctions, word order and punctuation, students perform consistently as they have basic ideas about English sentence structures. However, their performance deteriorates when there are words they do not know how to translate. In terms of article use, some high achievers overuse the definite article for plural generic nouns while low achievers tend to forget plural suffixes. In terms of tense use, students still need familiar L1 translations to indicate which tense to use. In terms of parts of speech, students are usually unable to change the parts of speech of a word in different collocations. Qualitative research results show that both high achievers and low achievers attempt to improve their translation ability by memorizing more L2 words via their L1 translations. However, this means that students will need the exact Chinese translation to come up with the right English word when doing translation tasks. Such a learning strategy also fails to teach students the importance of word usages and collocations. In light of the research results, some suggestions are proposed for designing translation tasks and teaching activities.大學入學考試英文科翻譯試題高中生翻譯錯誤翻譯困難Chinese-English translation tasks in college entrance examinations in Taiwansenior high school studentstranslation errorstranslation difficulty
