Recent decades have witnessed a growing interest in translation quality assessment (TQA), which is dedicated to the formulation of an objective and comprehensive model for translation evaluation. However, most attempts focus on theoretical explanations, while ignoring concrete instructions and operationalizations. Although House was not the first person to initiate a TQA model, her model is ‘still the only fully worked out, research-based, theoretically-informed and interdisciplinary conceived approach to translation quality assessment of its kind’ (p. 1). Translation Quality Assessment shows the resilience of House’s TQA model, which took its original shape in House (1977), was refined in House (1997), and has now become a fully revised and integrative model. The book contains 12 chapters. Justification for writing the book is provided in Chapter 1, where it is stated that it ‘is a new treatment of translation quality assessment designed to update my two previous versions of a model for translation quality assessment (1977, 1997)’ (p. 1).

翻译质量评估：过去和现在

近几十年来，人们对翻译质量评估 (TQA) 越来越感兴趣，TQA 致力于制定客观、全面的翻译评估模型。然而，大多数尝试侧重于理论解释，而忽略了具体的说明和操作。尽管豪斯不是第一个启动 TQA 模型的人，但她的模型“仍然是唯一一个经过充分制定、基于研究、理论知识丰富且跨学科构思的同类翻译质量评估方法”（第 1 页）。翻译质量评估显示了 House 的 TQA 模型的弹性，该模型在 House (1977) 中形成，在 House (1997) 中改进，现在已经成为一个经过全面修订和整合的模型。本书共12章。第 1 章提供了编写本书的理由，其中指出“这是一种翻译质量评估的新方法，旨在更新我之前的两个版本的翻译质量评估模型（1977 年、1997 年）”（第 1 页） ）。房子 说：
