中国是一个文化、语言、风俗和经济水平都很多样化的地方。经济格局尤其多样化。大城市如北京,广州和上海是现代的,相对富裕的。然而,约50%的中国人仍然生活在农村地区,尽管中国只有10%的土地是可耕地(arable land)。数百万农村居民仍然依靠体力劳动或役畜(draft animal)耕作。两三百万农民迁到城镇寻找工作。一般来说,南部和东部沿海地区比内陆地区更富有,西部和北部,以及西南部是非常不发达的地区。

China is a very diverse place with large variations in cul?ture, language, customs and economic levels. The economic landscape is particularly diverse. The major cities such as Beijing, Guangzhou and Shanghai are modem and comparatively wealthy. However, about 50% of Chinese still live in rural areas even though only 10% of China’s land is arable. Hundreds of millions of rural residents still farm with manual labour or draft animals. Some 200 to 300 million former peasants have23 migrated to townships and cities in search of work. Generally the southern and eastern coastal regions are wealthier while inland areas, the far west and north, and the southwest are much less developed.

在传统的中国家庭文化中,同一祖先的几代后裔(descendants) 居住在一起,形成一个大家庭。这种自治(autonomous)家族制度是中国传统社会的基本单位。中国的孩子们跟随他们父亲的姓。这和西方文化是一样的。如今在中国,孩子跟父亲的姓或母亲的姓在法律上都是合法的。除了那些因为结婚加入到家庭中的人以外,人们的姓氏都是一样的。

翻译内容:

In traditional Chinese family culture, descendants of several generations from the same ancestor lived together and formed a big fam?ily system. This kind of autonomous family system was the basic unit of traditional Chinese society. Chinese children follow their father’s fam?ily name. This is the same as western culture. Nowadays in China it is legally fine for a child to follow either father’s family name or mother’s family name. Within each family system, of course people except those who joined this family system through marriage all have the same family name.

几个世纪以来,中国在自然中寻求灵感和自知之明(self- knowledge)。因此,在中国园林中引发自然世界。由于城市土地一直昂贵,中国城市的园林相对都比较小,但是每一个中国园林都致力于岩石、植物、水看起来比它实际上要更好,因为中国的园林设计师用巧妙的方式带领游客从一个独特的有利视角(vantage point)到另有利视角。

译文内容:

For centuries, the Chinese have sought inspiration and self- knowledge in nature. Hence, the gardens in China evoke the natural world. Because land has always been expensive in cities,urban China gardens are relatively small, but the space of every Chinese garden de?voted to rocks,plants and water seems much greater than it actually is because of the clever ways in which Chinese garden designers lead the visitor from one unique vantage point to another.

丝绸之路(the Silk Road)是历史上连接中国和地中海的一条重要贸易路线。因为这条路上的丝绸贸易占绝大部分,所以在1877年它被德国的一位地理学家命名为“丝绸之路”。这条古道从长安开始,经过河西走廊(the Hexi Corridor),到达敦煌后分成三条:南部路线,中部路线和北部路线。这三条路遍布新疆维吾尔自治区(Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region),然后扩展到巴基斯坦(Pakistan),印度,甚至罗马。

翻译内容:

The Silk Road is a historically important international trade route between China and the Mediterranean. Because silk comprised a large proportion of trade along this road, in 1877, it was named the Silk Road by an eminent German geographer. This ancient road begins at Chang’an, then by way of the Hexi Corridor,and it reaches Dunhuang, where it divides into three, the Southern Route,Central Route and North?ern Route. The three routes spread all over the Xinjiang Uygur Autono?mous Region, and then they extend as far as Pakistan, India and even Rome.

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

译文内容:

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.

信用卡(credit card)是银行所创造出来的最便捷同时也是最危险的信用工具。通过信用卡,人们可以先用银行付账的方式购买那些负担不起的物品,同时,银行也将对此征收比_般贷款要高的利率(interest rate)。遗憾的是,信用卡现巳成为资本主义体制(capitalist system)的重要组成部分,而该体制就得依赖消费(consumption)的持续增长。

译文内容:

Credit cards are one of the most convenient devices ever cre ated by the banking system but, at the same time, one of the most danger?ous. They allow people to buy things they,otherwise, couldn’t afford,with money created by the banks and, charged out at much higher interest rates than normal loans. Unfortunately, credit cards have become an es?sential part of the capitalist system which only survives on the continued growth in consumption.
