The history of Chinese fan can be dated to over 3,000 years ago,around the Shang

Dynasty. The first type of fan, known as Shanhan, was tied to a horse-drawn carriage to shut out the strong sunshine and shelter the passengers from the rainfall. The Shanhan was a bit like today’s umbrella. Later this Shanhan became a long-handled fan made of thin and tough silk or birds5 feathers, called a Zhangshan fan, which was mainly used by the emperor’s honour guard as decoration.

5.中国是茶的故乡。据说早在五六千年前,中国就有了茶树(tea- shrub),而且有关茶树的人类文明可以追溯到两千年前。来自中国的茶和丝绸、瓷器(porcelain)—样,在1000年前为世界所知,而且一直是中国重要的出口产品。目前世界上40多个国家种植茶,其中亚洲国家的产量占世界总产量的90%。其他国家的茶树都直接或间接地起源于中国。

Tea from China,along with her silk and porcelain, began to be known the world over more than a thousand years ago and has since always been an important Chinese export. At present more than forty countries in the world grow tea with Asian countries producing 90% of the world’s total output. All tea trees in other countries have their origin directly or indirectly in China.

6.少林功夫(Shaolin Kungfii)是河南登封少林寺信奉佛教文化的和尚们练习的_种武术(martial arts)。少林寺,建于北魏(the Northern Wei Dynasty)太和期(Taihe Period)十九年,是少林功夫发展的文化空间。少林功夫最初是佛教僧侣练习的,他们的职责是保护寺庙。现在经过1500多年的发展,少林功夫已逐步发展成为一种完美技术和丰富含义相融合的艺术,在全世界享有声誉。

The Shaolin Kungfii, which is originally practiced by the Buddhist monks whose duties were to protect the temple, has been gradually developed into an art of perfect technology, abundant meanings and high reputation in the whole world after more than 1500 years of development.

7.剪纸(paper cutting)是中国最为流行的传统民间艺术形式之一。中国剪纸有一千五百多年的历史,在明朝和清朝时期(the Ming and Qing Dynasties)特别流行。人们常用剪纸美化居家环境。特别是在春节和婚庆期间,剪纸被用来装饰门窗和房间,以增加喜庆的气氛。剪纸最常用的颜色是红色,象征健康和兴旺。中国剪纸在世界各地很受欢迎,经常被用作馈赠外国友人的礼物。

Paper cutting is most commonly used color is red, a symbol of health and prosperity. China paper-cut is

very popular in the world, is often used as a gift to foreign friends.

8.中国的传统节庆膳食是节日必不可少的伴侣。例如,我国的端午节(the Dragon Boat Festival)是纪念古代诗人屈原的日子。那一天,人们通常要赛龙舟、吃粽子(zongzi)。中秋节是观赏满月的日子。圆圆的月亮象征着圆满,象征着家庭团聚。因此,中秋节(The Mid-autumn Festival)的特制食品是一种圆形的月饼。春节是中国的农历新年(the Chinese lunar New Year’s holiday),除了常见的家禽和肉类之外,人们还要按各自的地方习俗烹制传统食物,如铰子和年糕。

Traditional Chinese holiday meals are indispensable on some festivals. For example, the Dragon Boat Festival is a day established in memory of the ancient poet Qu Yuan and people usually hold dragon boat races and eat zongzi, or rice dumpling on that day. The Mid-autumn Festival is an occasion for viewing the full moon. The round moon is a symbol for completeness and family reunion.

9.狮舞(Lion Dance)是中国最广为流传的民间舞蹈之一。狮为百兽之首,在中国传统中,狮子被视为是能带来好运的吉祥物(mascot)。古人将狮子视作是勇敢和力量的化身,能驱赶邪恶、保护人类。据记载,狮舞已拥有了2,000多年的历史。在唐代(the Tang Dynasty),狮舞就已经被引入了皇室。因此,舞狮成为元宵节(the Lantern Festival)和其他节日的习俗,人们以此来祈祷好运、平安和幸福。

The Lion Dance is one of the most widespread folk dances in China. Lion is the king of animals. In Chinese tradition,the lion is regarded as a mascot, which can bring good luck. Ancient people regarded the lion as a symbol of braveness and strength, which could drive away evil and protect humans. The dance has a recorded history of more than 2,000 years. During the Tang Dynasty, the Lion Dance was already introduced into the royal family of the dynasty. Therefore, performing the lion dance at the Lantern Festival and other festive occasions became a custom where people could pray for good luck, safety and happiness.

10.聘金是中国传统习俗的一部分。这一习惯在整个中国都很普遍。但是近几年来其标准不断上升,致使大多数家庭都很难达到。高额的聘礼常常“抢劫”了新郎父母必生的积蓄,甚至引起家庭纠纷。此外,许多新婚夫妇被迫举行奢侈的婚礼宴会,在这个过程中,大量债务的累积可能使他们的新婚生活变得辛酸,至少在最初阶段是这样。想想老一辈节俭的婚礼,虽然简简单单,但也幸福美满,没有给他们婚后的生活带来任何负担。

Endowment may be part of Chinese tradition, but the standards have become so high in recent years that a majority of families are finding it difficult to meet them. The high endowment amounts often rob grooms’ parents of their life’s savings and causes family disputes. Besides, many newly married couples are forced to host extravagant wedding ceremonies to keep up with the Joneses and, in the process, run up huge

debts that could turn their married life sour, at least in the initial phase. Considering the frugal wedding of many parents, simple but happiness, didn’t have a ny bearing on their married life.

1.中国经济的高速发展,带来了消费文化的曰益流行,同时也催生了一批具有高学历,充分享受资本主义消费模式的年轻人,他们习惯于当月工资当月花。因而被称为“月光族”(the moonlight group)。“月光族”一词出现于20世纪90年代后期,是用来讽刺那些出身富裕、接受高等教育、充分享受快餐文化(fast food culture)的年轻人。

China’s economy is developing very quick ly, and has brought with it a culture of consumption more prevalent with each passing day. At the same time, it has brought into being an educated group of young people who enjoy capitalist consumption way. They’re used to spending money as soon as they ge t it every month, and so are called the “moon?light group”. This word came into being during the 1990s, to make fun of those born into wealth,who have received a high education, and who appreciate fast food culture.

2.许多刚毕业的大学生找不到工作,在校学生则担心他们的未来。多个调查显示,三分之二的中国毕业生想在政府或者国有企业工作,而不是为中国令人瞩目的经济增长提供动力的民营企业。政府和国有企业被认为能免受经济萧条的影响。如今几乎没有大学生愿意放弃政府的铁饭碗而下海、加入初创企业或自己创业。

Many recent college graduates can’t f ind a job and students are fearful about their future. Two-thirds of Chinese graduates say they want to work either in the government or state-owned firms,which are seen as recession-proof, rather than at the private companies that have powered China’s rem arkable economic climb, surveys indicate. Few college students today, according to the surveys, are ready to leave the safe shores of government work and jump into the sea to join startups or go into business.

3.如今,越来越多的大学生抱怨很难找到好工作。造成这一现象的原因如下:首先,大学生把在校的大多数时间都用在了专业学科学习上,只有当他们开始找工作的时候,才意识到自己缺乏必要的职业培训。其次,大学生之间的竞争也越来越激烈,这导致任何一名大学生找到工作的机会都变小了。因此,强烈建议大学生在课余时间做一些兼职工作,以积累相关的工作经验。

Nowadays, more and more university students complain about having great difficulties in finding a good job. The reasons for this phenomenon are as follows: First, college students spend most of their time at school studying academic subjects and it is only when they start looking for a job that they realize they lack necessary job training. Second, competition among graduates has become more and more fierce. And this results in a decreased chance for any individual graduate to find a job.

Therefore, it is highly suggested that college students should do some part-time jobs in their spare time to accumulate relevant working experience.

4.根据全国老龄工作委员会(the China National Committee On Aging)的数据来看,到2053年,中国60岁及以上的老人数量预计会从目前的1.85亿一跃变为4.87亿,或者说是占总人口的35%。扩张的比例是由于寿命的增加和计划生育政策(family planning policies) 限制大部分城市家庭只生一个孩子。快速老龄化对社会和经济稳定造成了严重威胁。

The number of people aged 60 and above in China is expected to jump from the current 185 million to 487 million, or 35 percent of the population,by 2053,according to figures from the China National Committee On Aging. The expanding ratio is due both an increase in life expectancy and by family planning policies that limit most urban families to a single child. Rapid aging poses serious threats to the country’s social and economic stability.

5. 中国将进一步发展经济、扩大开放,这对海外企业(enterprises)意味着更多的商机。改革开放以来,中国企业与海外企业一直积极开展经济技术合作,并取得了巨大成就。海外企业不仅帮助中国企业的成长,而且也在合作中取得了收益。中国政府将继续提供有力的政策和条件,推动中国企业与国外企业进一步开展合作。

China will develop its economy further and open itself wider to the outside world, which offers more business opportunities to overseas enterprises. Since China’s reform and opening up, Chinese enterprises have been cooperating with overseas enterprises in terms of economy and technology, and have scored great/ tremendous achievement. Overseas enterprises have not only helped Chinese enterprises with their growth, but also benefited from the cooperation. Chinese government will continue to offer favorable policies and conditions to promote the further cooperation between Chinese and overseas enterprises.

6.假日经济的现象表明:中国消费者的消费观正在发生巨大变化。根据统计数据,中国消费者的消费需求正在从基本生活必需品转向对休闲、舒适和个人发展的需求。同时,中国人的消费观在蓬勃发展的假日经济中正变得成熟。因此产品结构应作相应调整,来适应社会的发展。另一方面,服务质量要改善,以满足人们提高生活质量的要求。

The phenomenon of holiday economy shows that Chinese people’s consumption concept is undertaking great changes. According to statistics, the demands for Chinese consumers are shifting from the basic necessities of life to leisure, comfort and personal development. (Chinese consumers’ demand for basic necessities of life has given way to leisure, comfort and personal development.) Therefore, the structure of products should be adjusted accordingly to adapt to social development. On the other hand, services should be improved to satisfy people’s demand for an improved quality of life.

7.过去的七年,中国的房地产(real estate)业经历了前所未有的高速增长。对于那

些月薪较低却渴望在大城市拥有一套属于自己的体面、舒适的栖身之所的人来说,高昂的房价是他们无法承受的负担。鉴于这一状况,政府近来采取了一系列的措施来防止房价过快增长,包括提高利率及增加房产税等。目前,这些措施在部分城市已经取得了初步的成效。

In the past seven years, China’s real estate industry has developed in a record high speed. For those who earn less but are eager to own a decent and comfortable place of their own in a big city, the high housing price is a heavy burden that they cannot afford. For this reason, the government has taken a series of measures to prevent the housing price from rising too fast, including raising interest rates and increasing taxes on real estate etc. Presently, these measures have achieved initial effects in some cities.

8.联合国下属机构世界旅游组织(World Tourism Organization)公布的数据显示,中国游客对全球旅游业的贡献最大。中国人去年花在出境游上的支出膨胀至1020亿美元,同2011年相比增长了40%。联合国世界旅游组织在其网站上发布的一份声明中说,这一增幅令中国迅速超越德国和美国。后两者在之前是出境游支出最高的两个国家。2012年德美两国出境旅游支出均同比增长6%,约840亿美元。The figures from the United Nations World Tourism Organization show that Chinese travelers are making the most contributions to the global tourism industry. Chinese travelers spent a record $102 billion on outbound tourism last year,a 40% rise from 2011.That surge sent China screaming past Germany and the U.S.—the former No. 1 and No. 2 spenders respectively 一which both saw tourist outlays increase 6% year-on-year to around $84 billion in 2012, the UNWTO said in a statement on its website.

9.自从1978年经济改革以来,中国已经完成了从中央计划经济 (centrally planned economy)向市场经济(market based economy)的转变。超过6亿人已经脱离了贫困,但是仍然有超过 1.7亿人生活在国际贫困线以下天少于1.25美元。2012年,中国的人均GDP 为12405.67美元,这是30年前的37倍。到2018年,中国的人均GDP将从世界第90位上升到第75位。然而,这仍然是低于预计的世界平均水平。

Since initiating market reforms in 1978,China has shifted from a centrally planned to a market based economy.More than 600 million citizens have been lifted out of poverty, but over 170 million people live below the $1.25-a-day international poverty line.In 2012, China’s GDP (PPP) per ca pita was $12,405.67. This is 37 times higher than what it was just 30 years ago. By 2018,China’s GDP (PPP) per capita will climb from the 90th to 75th highest in the world. This however will still be below the forecasted world average.

10.波士顿咨询公司最近做的一项研究显示,到2020年中国将会有2.2亿家庭收入在2万到100万美元的富裕消费者。这些消费者中75%住在“较小城市”。随着网络的发展,较小城市的消费者的一种必然趋势是他们更加依赖社交网络服务上的信息。很多网络顾客都是通过微信、微博和QQ空间分组的。据估计今年中国将会有2.5亿消费者进行网购,位于四线城市的消费者平均每人会花费他们50%或者更高的工资在网购上,这一数据要比一线城市的消费者的花费高。

A recent study conducted by the Boston Consulting Group says there will be 220

million affluent consumers, who are from households earning between $ 20,000 to $ 1 million in China by 2020, and 75 percent of them will live in “smaller” cities. With the development of the Internet, an inevitable trend among these consumers is they are much more dependent on information from social networking services. Many of the website’s customers are “grouped” by Wechat, Weibo and QQ Zones. It is now estimated that 250 million Chinese consumers will shop online this year and the average shopper in a fourth-tier city in China will spend 50 percent or more of their income on e-commerce than those in top-tier cities.

很难想象我们的先辈们没有现代技术带来的这么多方便那日子是怎么过的。那个时候只有一小部分人享受一些舒适条件。大部分人连饭都吃不饱,更不要说接受教育的特权了。然而,许多人责怪现代技术,说它带来了很多问题。他们想减慢进步的速度。但是谁也不能阻止时代的前进。我们能做的是技术向哪个方向发展做出明智的决定。 Translation 2 武汉由长江、汉水分为三镇,因而亦被称为“江城”。武汉历史悠久,早在新石器时代(the Neolithic Age)这里就有人聚居和建筑城池。明清年间,汉口已是全国闻名的商埠,为当时中国的四大名镇之一。在中国近代史上,武汉作为民主革命的发祥地,写下了光辉的篇章。武汉具有优越的地理环境,有“九省通衢”之称。 Translation 3 汽车在二十世纪改变了世界,尤其是在美国和其他工业国家。汽车确实对我们大有用处,但也带来了一些危害,比如声音污染、空气污染以及公路死亡事故。据报道汽车事故被列为全世界导致死伤的主要原因之一。可庆幸的是,现代发明家门正在重新发明汽车。新的推进系统(propulsion system)、燃料、设计以及制造汽车的手段在过去的十年中得到迅速发展。例如,通过使用卫星辅助的全球定位系统,汽车里的计算机能给汽车精确定位;随着遥感器(sensor)的应用,智能汽车能排除不少汽车事故。 Translation 4 亨利教授的论文使我深受启发。他认为,在一个多元化社会里,不同意见是不可避免的。关键在于怎样正确对待不同意见,使之发挥建设性、而非破坏性的作用。他还说,在一个多元化社会里,我们必须注重人际关系,强调合作,多从他人视角考虑问题。如果某些群体自视高人一等,不尊重其他种族或宗教,那么整个社会有可能陷入瘫痪。我相信,要是我们把上述想法付诸实践,那我们就有可能创造出一种新的文明。 Translation 5 从前,我们以为技术发展会使我们的生活变得更安逸。那时我们觉得机器会替代我们工作,我们则有越来越多的时间休闲娱乐。但技术发展没有把我们解放出来,而是使我们成为奴隶。新技术纷至沓来,令人目不暇接。而每一项新发明问世,就进一步吞噬我们的光阴。比如,汽车曾使我们希望个人出行会方便得让人难以想象。可如今,城市车辆运行得比马车时代还要慢,我们因交通堵塞而困在车内,徒然浪费生命。在大多数情况下,技术发展并未节省时间,而是使我们得以做更多的事。 Translation 6 工业革命前,人们居住在交通联系不方便得小社区里。在本村范围内,人们自然而然地期望了解该了解的一切,见到该见的一切,做该做的一切。如今,生性好奇的我们仍试图这么做。然而,地球村是一个有着无限可能的世界,我们永远无法实现自己的目标。我们需要的不是更多的时间:我们需要的是更少的欲望。我们需要关掉手机,让孩子们自己玩耍。我们需要少购物,少阅读,少出游。我们需要给自己设定界限,不然注定会越来越感到绝望。 Translation 7 无疑,我们现在处于持续的压力之下,要长时间工作,要创造更多,拥有更多,从而成为一名成功人士。于是乎,工作狂(workaholism)——一种现代癖(addiction),就这样出现了。工作狂其根源是基于这样一种认识:通过长时间地工作、完成更多的项目,我们便能提高我们的自身价值。 许多妇女今天感到同样的压力,要创造,要出人头地,而与此同时,又要养育子女,承担起各种家庭责任。 研究表明,工作狂往往使我们与家人的关系疏远。它会迫使我们长时间地劳作,仅留微乎其微的时间与我们所爱的人聚在一起、交流感情。家庭成员间的亲密关系在此过程中注定要消亡。 Translation 8 日本是世界上最节能的国家之一,但近年来企业和家庭的温室气体排放量不断增长,这一状况促使政府采取措施提高民众对全球变暖问题的关注。气候变化将为七月初在日本召开的八国峰会的主要议题。日本家庭的能耗量一直低于美国和欧洲,但近年来却急剧增长,1990年至2005年间就增长了44%。日本政府于本周二发布的一份报告称,国民缩短洗澡时间有助于减少日本不断增长的能源消耗量及温室气体的排放。

2018年12月 (卷一) 由于通信网络的迅速发展,中国智能手机用户数量近年来以惊人速度增长。这极大地改变了许多人的阅读方式。他们现在经常在智能手机上看新闻和文章,而不买传统报刊。大量移动应用程序的开发使人们能用手机读小说和其他文学作品。因此,纸质书籍的销售受到了影响。但调查显示,尽管智能手机阅读市场稳步增长,超过半数成年人仍喜欢读纸质书。 Thanks to the rapid development of communication networks,the number of smart phone users in China has seen a stunning growth in recent years,which has dramatically changed the way many people read.Instead of buying traditional newspapers,they now often read news and articles via smart phones.The development of numerous mobile apps makes it possible for people read novels and other forms of literature on their phones,resulting in the declining sales of paper books.But surveys suggest that despite the steady growth of the smart phone reading market share.over half of adults still prefer paper books. (卷二) 过去几年里,移动支付市场在中国蓬勃发展。随着移动互联网的出现,手机购物逐渐成为一种趋势。18到30岁的年轻人构成了移动支付市场的最大群体,由于现在手机付款很容易,许多消费者在购物时宁愿用手机付款,而不愿用现金或信用卡。为了鼓励人们多消费,许多商店给使用移动支付的顾客打折。专家预测,中国移动支付市场未来仍有很大的发展潜力。 Over the past few years,the mobile payment market has flourished in China.With the advent of the mobile Internet,mobile shopping has gradually become a trend.Young people aged between 18 and 30 constitute the largest group in this market.Instead of using cash or credit cards when shopping,many consumers prefer mobile phone payment since it is now easy to do so.To encourage people to spend more ,many shops offer discounts to customers using mobile payment.Experts predict that great potential still waits to be tapped in China’s mobile payment market in the future.

中国城市化(urbanization)将会充分释放潜在内需(domestic demand)。一些经济学家指出,在中国几乎所有的发展中城市都面临着城市化的进程。这使得许多人的生活水平有所提高,也为人们提供更多的就业机会。随着越来越多的人向城市迁徙,住房及城市基础设施建设(infrastructure construction),包括水源等能源的供应将会成为城市发展的焦点问题。商品与服务的自由、快速流通是城市化社会的一项基本特征。逐渐扩张的城市需要更多的零售店来满足消费者的需求。 China’s urbanization will release the full potential of domestic demand. Some economists point out that urbanization is a process that is occurring in nearly every developing city in the country. It will lead to a better quality of life for many people,and provide individuals with more job opportunities. The construction of housing and city infrastructure, including water and energy supplies, will be a focal point of urban development as more people migrate to cities. Urbanization means better access to educational and medical resources in the city. But it also predicts less use of personal vehicles and more use of public transportation. The fast, free flow of goods and services is a basic trait of an urbanized society. Expanding cities require more retail outlets to serve customers. 北京有无数的胡同(hutong)。平民百姓在胡同里的生活给古都北京带来了无穷的魅力。北京的胡同不仅仅是平民百姓的生活环境,而且还是一门建筑艺术。通常,胡同内有一个大杂院(courtyard complex),房间够4到10个家庭的差不多20口人住。所以,胡同里的生活充满了友善和人情味。如今随着社会和经济的飞速发展,很多胡同被新的高楼大厦所取代。但愿胡同可以保留下来。 In Beijing, there are numerous hutongs. The life of common people in hutongs brings endless charm to the ancient capital, Beijing. The hutong in Beijing is not only the living environment of common people but also a kind of architecture. Usually, there is a courtyard complex inside hutong, with rooms shared by 4 to 10 families of about 20 people. Life in hutongs, therefore, is full of friendliness and genuine humanity. With social and economic developing rapidly nowadays, many hutongs are replaced by new tall buildings. It is our hope that hutongs can be preserved. 许多人喜欢中餐。在中国,烹饪不仅被视为一种技能,而且也被视为一种艺术。精心准备的中餐既可口又好看。烹饪技艺和配料在中国各地差别很大。但好的烹饪都有一个共同点,总是要考虑到颜色、味道、口感和营养(nutrition)。由于食物对健康至关重要,好的厨师总是努力在谷物、肉类和蔬菜之间取得平衡,所以中餐既味美又健康。 Many people like Chinese food. In China, cooking is not only regarded as a skill but also an art. The well/carefully-prepared Chinese food is tasty and good-looking. The way of cooking and ingredients vary greatly across China. However, good cooking has one thing in common, that is, to always concern colors, smell, tastes and nutrition.
