ABSTRACT:Public signs refer to the words and graphic information for advice, instruction, proposal and warning in relation to different aspects of life. Having the special communicative function, public signs play a role of "city face" and affect foreigners' first impression on China when they travel here. For the convenience of foreigners' traveling in China, many scenic spots provide Chinese-English public signs for them. This thesis attempts to study the public signs translation in Chongqing International Garden Expo from the perspective of Skopostheorie. To be the basic theory of German Functional Category, Skopostheorie points out that different purposes will lead to different translational actions and guide these actions in each specific case. The criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of the public signs translation are based on the three rules of Skopostheorie: Skopos rule, coherence rule and fidelity rule. This thesis aims to analyze the disadvantages in the public signs translation, to discuss the methods and strategies used in the public signs translation and to come up with better translation for the improper ones. This thesis shows that there are many mistakes in signs translation and they would make foreigners confused, even distorted. This thesis suggests that perfect translation of public signs in scenic spots is an important task and translators should pay more attention to their translation quality.
