在中国月饼是一种特殊的食品,广受海内外华人的欢迎。中秋吃月饼就好比圣诞节吃馅饼(mince pies)。为了庆祝中秋节,中国人通常做两件事:一是观赏满月。二是品尝美味的月饼。中秋节是每年农历八月十五日。据说,这一天的月亮是一年中最圆的。而月亮正是庆贺中秋的全部主题。在中国人眼中,月饼象征着全家人的大团圆。

参考译文:

Moon cakes are a special kind of food in China. They are very popular with the Chinese at home and abroad. Moon cakes are to Mid-Autumn Festival what mince pies are to Christmas. To celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival, Chinese usually do two things :enjoy the full moon and eat delicious moon cakes. Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar. It is the time when the moon is said to be at its brightest and fullest. And the moon is what this celebration is all about. In the eyes of the Chinese people ,a moon cake symbolizes the reunion of all family members.

讲解:第二句中的“……就好比”可以用“……s like…”,但译文中所用句型更好地表达这个含义。如:“智力之于大脑,犹如视力之于躯体。“ Intellect is to the mind what sight is to the body.”2.传统艺术

皮影戏又称“影子戏”。它是中国著名民间戏剧形式之一。表演时艺人通常一边演唱一边操纵用兽皮或纸板制作的人物形象。它们的影子通过灯光出现在帘布上。这营造了有人物在活动的幻象。有时表演者需要控制三到四个偶人。皮影戏在我国历史悠久,元代时还曾传到世界上很多国家,迷倒了不少国外戏迷,被人们亲切地称为“中国影灯”。

参考译文

The shadow puppet play, also known as ‘shadow play’, is one of China’s famous fol k opera forms. During the performance, players usually sing while holing/manipulating human figures, which are made of animal skin and paper board.

Shadow puppet play enjoys a long history in China. It was introduced to many countries during the Yuan Dynasty and attracted many foreign audience. They call the art form Chinese shadow play.

3.社交饥渴

手机,是一项伟大的发明。但很显然,手机也刷新了人与人的关系。会议室门口通常贴着一条公告:请与会者关闭手机。可是,会议室里手机铃声仍然响成一片。我们都是普通人,并没有多少特别重要的事情。尽管如此,我们也不会轻易关掉手机。打开手机象征着我们与这个世界的联系。显然,手机反映出我们的“社交饥渴症”。(thirst for socialization)

参考译文

The cell phone is a great invention. But obviously, It has altered the relationship among people. There is usually a notice on the door of the meeting room, which reads, “Please turn off your hand-set.” However, phones ring now and then when the meeting goes on. We are but ordinary people and have few urgencies to tackle with. Never the less, we will not switch off our phones easily. Phones-on symbolize sour connecting with this world. Obviously, cell phone has been reflecting our “thirst for socialization”.

北京是座有三千年历史的古城。早在公元前十一世纪,北京就是燕国的国都,因此北京有燕京之称。在以后的几千年里,北京又成为金、元、明、清各朝的国都。北京是中国的六大古都之一,其他五个是西安、南京、洛阳、开封和杭州。北京是座既古老又年轻的城市,有许多名胜古迹。从故宫、天坛到颐和园,你们可以看到北京保留了许多昔日的风采。

参考译文

Beijing is an ancient city with a history of 3,000 years. As early as the 11th century, B.C., it was the capital of the Kingdom of Yan; that's why Beijing is also known as Yanjing. In the few thousand years afterwards, Beijing again served as the capital for the Jin Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties. Beijing is one of China's six ancient capitals; the other five are Xi’an,Nanjing, Luoyang, Kaifeng, and Hangzhou .Beijing is a city both old and young, with many places of historical interest and scenic beauty. From the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, and the Summer Palace, you can see that Beijing has retained a lot of color of old Chinese life.

5.生活习惯

多少年来,我养成了一个习惯:每天早晨四点在黎明以前起床工作。我不出去跑步或散步,而是一下床就干活儿。因此我对黎明前的北京的了解是在屋子里感觉到的。我从前在什么报上读过一篇文章,讲黎明时分天安门广场上的清洁工人。那情景必然是非常动人的,可惜我从未能见到,只是心向往之而已。

参考译文

For many years, I have been in the habit of getting up before daybreak to start work at four .Instead of going out for a jog or walk, I’ll set about my work as soon as I’m out of bed. As a result, it is from inside my study that I've got the feel of predawn Beijing. Years ago, I hit upon a newspaper article about street cleane rs in Tian’anmen Square at daybreak. It must have been a very moving scene, but what a pity I haven’t seen it with my own eyes. I can only picture it in my mind longingly.

6.保护动物

目前,人类的生存环境正在遭到破坏,美丽的大自然已经不那么美丽了。保护野生动物,也就是保护人类自己。我强烈呼吁:不要再捕杀黑猩猩,不要再捕杀野生动物了,让我们人类多一些地球上的朋友,多给我们下一代保留一些野生动物吧! 否则,地球将毁灭在人类手中,人类将毁灭在自己手中。

参考译文

At present, man’s living environment is being ruined, and beautiful nature is no longer so beautiful. Protection of wild life is protection of man himself. So I appeal strongly to all to stop killing the chimpanzee or any other wild animal .Let us human beings have more friends on the earth, and leave more wild life for future generations. Or the earth would be destroyed by man, and man by man himself.

到中国来旅游观光的人很少不会注意到中国人学习英语的劲头。公园里有专门的英语角,老老少少会定期聚在一起操练。马路上外国游客常常被学习英语的人围住交谈,从天气到政治,无所不谈。各种英语班如雨后春笋在到处出现。

参考译文

Few visitors to China will fail to notice the eagerness of the Chinese to learnEnglish.2) In public parks there are special corners where English learners old and young gather at regular time to practise their spoken English.3) Foreignvisitors are often besieged on streets by English learners who want to talk with them in English abut anything from weather to politics.4) English classes are mushrooming across the land.

8.发明创造

过去50年其实并不是发明创新的黄金时期。从1900年到1950年,改变人类生活的发明有汽车、飞机、

电话、收音机、电视机——当然还有核武器和计算机。而近50年来,只有为数不多的发明。难道发明的

源泉已经枯竭了吗?答案并非如此。事实上,发明的新时代刚刚开始。

参考译文

Actually the last fifty years was not the golden age of invention and innovation. From 1900 to1950, human life was transformed by such invention as cars, aeroplanes,telephones, radios and television sets, not to mention nuclear weapons and the computer of course. In the recent 50 years since only a few inventions have been made, was the wellspring of invention drying up? Not likely. Indeed, a new age of invention is just beginning.

9.电脑技术

有些人担心电脑技术的广泛使用会进一步恶化就业形势。但另一种观点认为尽管这对个人来说会丢掉饭碗,对整个社会来说由于提高了生产率,因而有利于经济的发展。不管对社会影响如何,有一点是肯定的:有技术的人变得越来越吃香,没技术的人工作越来越难找。

参考译文

Some people are worrying that the wide use of computer technology will cause further unemployment. Another argument however holds that although some individual swill lose their jobs society as a whole will benefit economically through increases in productivity. Despite its effects on society one thing is certain :the technically trained will become ever more valuable while the jobs for the blue-collar population will become less available.

10.个人集体

不管是在一个公司,还是在一个政府里,重大的决定总是个人作出的,而不是集体。我们需要集体的讨论,因为可以交流看法和经验。但是集体讨论不能代替个人的作用。理由很清楚,如要作出一个重大的决定,集体总是不能对迅速变化的事件作出同样迅速的反应。

参考译文

An important decision is always made by individuals not by committees whether it involves a company or a government. We need committees because that’s where people could share their opinions and experiences. But they could not replace individuals .The reason is obvious: a committee faced with a major decision can’t always move as quickly as the events it is trying to respond to.

11.学习机会

上大学给人们提供了在无边无际的知识海洋里遨游探索的机会。为了丰富多彩的人生,大学生应该充分利用目前读大学的大好时光。他们应该意识到上大学决不仅仅意味着得到一个学位,得到一个好的工作。他们如果不满足于专业课内容,就会终生受益。

参考译文

College provides a chance to explore the vast areas of unlimited knowledge. To have a rich full life a college student should make the most of the opportunities at hand. He should realize that going to college means a lot more than earning a degree and securing a good job. If he can explore beyond his immediate career objective she will enjoy the rest of his life.

12.文化交流

文化是不同国家的人们互相理解的最佳媒体。通过举办文化节,许多中国城市在世界上的知名度提高了。已经证明,对促进中国人民和世界其他地方人民之间的交流来说,这是最好的途径之一。这种交流不仅仅限于文化方面,还扩大到了经济和其他领域。

参考译文

Culture is the best medium for people of different countries to understand each other. Through culture festivals, many cities in China have raised their prestige in the world. As has been proven that, this is one of the best ways to promote the communication between Chinese people and the people from different parts of the world. This kind of communication is not only confined to culture, but extends to economy and other fields.

13.大四生活

现在大学生的学习压力相当重。除了大四,他们开始找工作了,其余的学生总是忙于学习,而不愿参加校园团体和俱乐部,不愿参加体育锻炼和其他课外活动,不愿与他们的朋友玩玩,不愿关心和学习没有关系的事。总之,他们就像一个机器人。压力大,时间少,功课多。看到同寝室里的人都上图书馆去学习,到深夜闭馆才回,而自己却去看电影,他们就会有一种内疚感。一想到白天什么事都没干,心里就感到不安,会整夜因此睡不着觉。他们学习太紧张,几乎没有时间好好品尝生活,干些其他事,成为一个全面发展的人。读大学使他们失去太多的个人幸福和健康。

From then on, silk has been regarded as the emissary and symbol of the Oriental civilization. 1.中国人喜欢在一起吃饭,这个传统可以追溯到很久之前。 2.这反映出中国人喜欢团圆不愿分离的观念—圆桌、圆盘、还有圆碗都象征着团圆和美满。 3.盘子通常放在桌子的中央,这样坐在一桌子面前的听有人都可以吃得到。 4.一锅热汤尤其可以增加和谐、团圆的气氛。 5.朋友们在一起吃饭、生活。 6.最近一位美国汉学家(Sinologist)的著作认为,中国人的集体观念就是从一同吃饭发展而来的。 Chinese like to eat together, a tradition that can be traced back far back in time.

明星代言问题 目前,我们很难过上一天没有看到一个名人代言人推广产品或一个社会运动在电视,网络或其他媒体。这是一个强烈的流行趋势,我们不能不注意到。 毫无疑问,明星代言人可以提高产品的销售。一个代言人的主机,然而,已经成为一些公司的营销工具,甚至是公司生产和销售假冒伪劣产品。这种行为产生了对消费者和整个社会,应该受到严厉批评和惩罚的负面影响。当然,正如众所周知,任何事物都有明亮和黑暗的方面。一些明星的社会活动和公共宣传提高公众意识认可,引起公众行为的改变。在这种情况下,他们成为广大市民的正面榜样。这些只是一个案例:普国泰,一个家庭的人物,作为中国艾滋病基金会名人的发言人,大大促进了预防艾滋病的事业,在中国治愈。 On the Celebrity Spokesperson (celebrity 名人,名流;名声,著名;知名人士,社会名流。) (spokesperson 代言人;(男/女)发言人。) Currently, we could hardly live a single day without seeing a celebrity spokesperson promoting a product or a social campaign on TV, net or other media.

A host of celebrity spokespersons, however, have emerged as the marketing tool of some companies, even companies producing and selling fake and inferior items.
