1.表示某事物的成立，需用被动语态;“原名京师大学堂”即最初的名字，可译为and its original name was...;也可与前面句子共用主语Peking University，译为was originallyknown as...，但这两种处理方法都不如将其处理为过去分词短语originally known as...来得简洁地道。
2.注意第二句中“中国近代史”的译法，“近代史”通常译为modern history。“现代史”则译为contemporaryhistory。“标志着…的开始”可以套用mark the beginning of...句型表达。注意，不要一看到“标志”就翻译为symbolize，该词一般指“某事物的象征意义”，用于此不合适。
3.第三句中的“对…的发生颇有影响”的中心词是“有影响”(was influential)，“对…的发生”表明产生影响的方面，用介词in。“发生”在此处强调的是状态，而不是动作，因此用in the birth of表达。
