Abstract: At present, there are more qualitative case study but inadequate quantitative analysis on English translation of idioms in Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out. Based on ChineseEnglish parallel corpus, a statistic analysis of idioms and their translation methods is made in the novel, which is authentic and objective. It is found out:The total number of idioms in the novel is huge, with set phrases the most.Literal translation and free translation play a major part in idiom translation, which count for 39.2% and 30.3% respectively. Literal translation is more often applied to proverbs and twopart allegorical sayings.There are few mistranslations. This statistic analysis leads us to Howard Goldblatts faithfulness and readerconsciousness concepts in translation, which also provides solid data for similar studies.

摘要： 《生死疲劳》熟语英译研究定性的个案分析居多，精确的定量分析不足。基于汉英平行语料库，穷尽式地统计分析小说中熟语及其翻译方法的使用情况。《生死疲劳》中熟语总量庞大，尤以成语为最；熟语翻译以直译、意译为主，占比分别为39.2%和30.3%，其中谚语、歇后语最常使用直译；误译现象较少。对熟语翻译方法的统计分析有助于得出葛浩文的忠实翻译观和读者意识翻译观，为其它类似研究提供数据支撑。
