This paper focuses on the four-character phrases in the Government Work Report, analyzing their linguistic features and exploring effective English translation strategies within the context of political document translation. The study aims to enhance the quality and accuracy of translating political texts and to provide a reference for relevant translation practices. Through case studies, various translation strategies—such as literal translation, free translation, amplification, and omission—are summarized along with their applicable scenarios. Ultimately, this research seeks to facilitate cross-cultural communication and information dissemination in the translation of political documents.
