Chinese DragonThe worship of dragon totem in China has been around for the last 8,000 years. The ancients in China considered the dragon a fetish that combines animals including the fish, snake, horse and ox with cloud, thunder, lightning and other natural celestial phenomena. The Chinese dragon was formed in accordance with the multicultural fusion process of the Chinese nation. To the Chinese, the dragon signifies innovation and cohesion.对龙图腾的崇拜在中国大约已绵延了八千多年。

中国龙是古人将鱼、蛇、马、牛等动物与云、雾、雷电等自然天象集合而成的一种神物。

中国龙的形成与中华民族的多元文化的融合过程同步。

在中国人的心目中,龙具有开拓变化和团结凝聚的寓意。

Chinese IdiomsChinese idioms refer to comprehensive and integrated fixed phrases and expressions. Idioms are established and accepted by constant usage and common practice. An idiom is a language unit that is larger than a word, but has the same grammatical function as a word. Most Chinese idioms consist of four characters. For example, ziqiangbuxi ( make unremitting efforts to improve oneself), qingchuyulan(bluer than indigo), and houjibofa (success comes with time and effort). Idioms are extrated from folk proverbs, ancient works of literature, poems, fables, allusions, and well-known sayings. Idioms are a part of the Chinese language that are concise and have great vitality.中国成语是汉语中意义完整的表示一般概念的固定词组或短语。

There’s an old saying that claims, “Nothing could be more delicious than dumplings”. During the Spring Festival and other holidays, or when treating relatives and friends, Chinese people like to follow the auspicious custom of eating dumplings. To Chinese people who show high reverence for family love, having dumplings at the moment the old year is replaced by the new is an essential part of bidding farewell to the old and ushering in the new year.

Chinese Kung Fu Chinese kung fu, or Chinese martial arts, carries traditional Chinese culture in abundance. It is a traditional Chinese sport which applies the art of attack and defence in combat and the motions engaged with a series of skill and tricks. The core idea of Chinese king fu is derived from the Confucian theory of both “the mean and harmony” and “cultivating qi” (otherwise known as nourishing one’s spirit). Meanwhile, it also includes thoughts of Taoism and Buddhism. Chinese kung fu has a long history, 奇迹之一。 如果你到了中国却没去过长城,就想 到了巴黎没有去看看菲尔铁塔,或者 就像到了埃及没有去看金字塔一样。 人们常说:“不到长城非好汉。”实 际上,长城最初只是一些断断续续的 城墙,直到秦朝统一中国后才将其连 城长城。然而,今天我们看到的长城 ——东起山海关,西至嘉峪关——大 部分都是在明代修建的。

1. 长城是人类创造的世界奇迹之一。

如果你到了中国却没去过长城,就像到了巴黎没有去看埃菲尔铁塔,或者就像到了埃及没有去看金字塔一样。

人们常说:“不到长城非好汉。

”实际上,长城最初只是一些断断续续的城墙,直到秦朝统一中国后才将其连城长城。

然而,今天我们看到的长城——东起山海关,西至嘉峪关——大部分都是在明代修建的。

The Great Wall is one of the wonders of the world that was created by human beings. If you come to China without climbing the Great Wall, it's just like going to Paris without visiting the Eiffel Tower; or going to Egypt without paying a visit to the Pyramids. As it is often quoted by people, “He who doest not reach the Great Wall is not a true man.” In fact, it began as independent walls for different states when it was first built, and did not become the “Great Wall” until the Qin Dynasty. However, the wall we see today, starting from Shanhaiguan Pass in the east to Jiayuguan Pass in the west, was mostly built during the Ming Dynasty.2. 要了解中国文化,就应该对中国的戏曲文化有所了解。

翻译练习1.春节是是中国的农历新年。

在中国的传统节日中,这是一个最重要、最热闹的节日。

中国人过春节有很多传统习俗。

除夕之夜,是家人团聚的时候。

一家人围坐在一起,吃一顿丰盛的年夜饭(New Year’s Eve dinner),说说笑笑,直到天亮,这叫守岁(staying up to see the year out)。

除夕零点的钟声一响,人们还要吃饺子。

从初一开始,人们要走亲戚、看朋友,互相拜年(greet each other)。

拜年,是春节的重要习俗。

放爆竹(set off firecrackers)是春节期间孩子们最喜欢的活动。

传说燃放爆竹可以驱妖除魔(drive off evil spirits)。

2.农历八月十五(the 15th day of the eighth lunar month),是中国的传统节日中秋节(Mid-Autumn Festival)。

这天晚上,天上的月亮又圆又亮。

人们把圆月看作团圆美满的象征,所以中秋节又被称为“团圆节”( Festival for Reunion)。

按照传统习惯,中国人要一边赏月(admire the moon) 一边品尝月饼。

因为月饼是圆的,象征着团圆,所以有的地方叫它“团圆饼”。

秋天,人们一年的劳动有了收获。

中秋节的晚上,全家人坐在一起赏月、吃月饼,心里充满了丰收(bumper harvest) 的喜悦和团聚的欢乐。

这时,远离家乡的人们也会仰望明月,思念故乡和亲人。

3.英语中的“china”一词有两个意义,一个是中国,一个是瓷(porcelain)。

西方人很早就把中国与瓷器联系在一起,这是因为瓷器是中国人发明的。

瓷器是从陶器(pottery) 发展来的,如果从生产原始瓷器的商代(Shang Dynasty)算起,中国的瓷器大约有三千多年的历史了。

江西景德镇被称为中国的“瓷都”(the Capital of Porcelain)。

中国瓷器不仅是精美的日用品,也是珍贵的艺术品。

西方人很早就把中国与瓷器联系在一起,这是因为瓷器是中国人发明的。

瓷器是从陶器(pottery) 发展来的,如果从生产原始瓷器的商代(Shang Dynasty)算起,中国的瓷器大约有三千多年的历史了。

江西景德镇被称为中国的“瓷都”(the Capital of Porcelain)。

中国瓷器不仅是精美的日用品,也是珍贵的艺术品。

自汉唐(Han and Tang dynasties)以来,中国瓷器就大量销往国外,中国的制瓷技术也逐渐传遍世界各地。

4.中国的传统节庆膳食(holiday meals)除了在数量和质量上与平时有所不同之外,一些历史悠久、具有象征意义的食物也是节日必不可缺的。

例如,我国的端午节(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(hold dragon boat races)、吃粽子。

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,中秋节的特制食品是一种圆形的饼。

春节是中国的农历新年,除了常见的海鲜和肉类之外,人们还要按各自的地方习俗烹制传统菜肴,如饺子和年糕。

5.中国茶历史悠久,是中国文化的一部分。

中国茶种类很多,深受外国友人的喜爱。

中国人喜欢喝茶,也常常用茶来招待朋友和客人。

茶树原产于中国。

中国古人发现茶树后,起初是把茶叶作为药用,后来才当做饮料。

中国茶叶按照制作方法分为绿茶、红茶(black tea)、乌龙茶(oolong tea)、花茶(scented tea)、等几大类,各种茶又包括许多品种。

喝茶不但可以止渴,还能消除疲劳,帮助消化,预防一些疾病。

长期饮茶,对人的身体健康很有益处。

6.京剧(Beijing Opera)是中国流行最广、影响最大的一个剧种,有近200年的历史。

京剧在形成过程中吸收了许多地方戏的精华,又受到北京方言和风俗习惯的影响。

京剧是一种唱(Chang)、念(Nian)、做(Zuo)、打(Da)并重的艺术。

京剧演员分生(Sheng)、旦(Dan)、净(Jing)、丑(Chou)四个行当。

京剧作为中国民族戏曲的精华,在国内外都有很大的影响。

许多外国人专门到中国来学唱京剧。

许多京剧表演艺术家也曾到世界各地访问演出,受到各国人民的喜爱。

7.姚明,1980年9月12日生于上海,是中国篮球的标志和骄傲。

但姚明的影响力远远不止中国范围。

友好、善良、谦虚、礼貌……。

姚明不仅仅是美国华人的骄傲,也是其他族裔(ethnic groups)球迷的偶像(icon)。

因为喜爱姚明,很多美国人会对汉语和中国文化产生兴趣。

姚明用自己的努力,坚定的信念,为中国人在大洋彼岸的美国争了光。

姚明的个人影响已经超出了国界,更重要的是他把中国文化传播到了地球的各个角落。

8.中国人讲吃,不仅仅是一日三餐,解渴充饥(allay thirst and hunger),它往往蕴含着重要的文化内涵。

如一个小孩生下来,亲友要吃红蛋表示喜庆,“蛋”(“蛋”与汉语“诞”同音)表示着生命的延续(continuation),“吃蛋”寄寓着中国人传宗接代(carry on the family line)的厚望。

孩子周岁时要“吃”,十八岁时要“吃”,结婚时要“吃”,到了六十大寿更要庆祝一番。

这种“吃”,表面上看是一种生理满足,但实际上,吃的文化已经超越了“吃”本身,获得了更为深刻的社会意义。

9.中华民族历来珍惜和平。

中外关系中,我们一贯主张同各国发展友好合作关系。

中国现在是、今后相当长时间内仍将是一个发展中国家。

中国有13亿人口,这是最大的国情。

中国国内生产总值(GDP)已居全球第六位,但人均水平(per capita)却排在第138位。

我们还面临失业、贫穷、发展不平衡等问题。

中国要赶上发达国家,还需要几代人、十几代人的艰苦努力。

10.元宵节(Lantern Festival)是正月(the first lunar month)的第十五天,这是新年的第一次满月,象征着团圆和圆满。

元宵节是春节的一个重要组成部分,也象征着春节长假的正式结束。

尽管关于元宵节的来历有很多传说,但可以确定的是,宵节的起源必定跟古代人们使用火来庆祝节日、躲避灾难有关。

吃元宵,是元宵节一个特别传统,而元宵节也因这种食物得名。

随着时间的流逝,元宵节逐渐演变为今天的形式。

11.紫禁城(the Forbidden City)位于北京城的中心,天安门广场的北边。

紫禁城里面有9999间房屋,四周环绕着六米深的护城河(moat) 和十米高的城墙。

以前,没有许可,普通人是不能进入紫禁城的, 紫禁城因此而得名。

紫禁城始建于1407年,直至1420年才完工。

紫禁城在过去长达五个世纪的时间里一直作为皇宫,目前是世界上最大的博物院。

1987年,紫禁城被联合国教科文组织(UNESCO) 确认为世界文化遗产。

12.白蛇传是中国古代民间广为流传的一个故事。

传说一条白蛇白素贞,因向往人间生活来到人间,嫁给了一个名叫许仙的年轻人。

龙舟节期间,白素珍因喝了酒而现了原形,这令许仙惊恐万分昏死过去。

借助于药草(herb)的帮助,白素贞使其苏醒过来。

随后许仙求救于金山寺和尚法海的帮助,然而,他们的婚姻却遭到了他的反对,并把白素贞埋在了杭州西湖岸边的雷锋塔下。

多年之后,白素贞的儿子将其母从塔下解救出来,从此家庭团聚。

13.饺子(Chinese Dumpling)是中国的传统食物,在中国的节日里特别受欢迎,尤其是在中国北方。

饺子的形状类似中国古代金银锭(ingot),他们象征着财富。

传统上, 除夕之夜,家庭成员聚在一起包饺子,人们可能在饺子中藏一个硬币,发现硬币的人在新的一年可能会有好运。

在中国新年,饺子是最重要的食物之一。

饺子在其它中国节假日也很受欢迎,所以它是中国文化不可缺少的的一部分。

中国是第一个追逐飞天梦想的国家。

嫦娥神话(the myth of Chang’E) 表达了我们祖先一直渴望探索外层空间的愿望。

许多中国古代的诗人也通过美妙的词语表达了对月亮的偏爱。

例如,诗仙(the poetic genius)李白一生就写了超过320首跟月亮有关的诗句。

中国的探月工程被命名为“嫦娥”,充分表达了中国人的这种渴望。

“嫦娥1号”于2007年10月24日发射到月球,这给世界带来的不是威胁,而是机会,不是战争,而是和平。

15.在除夕年夜饭之后, 几乎所有的孩子都能接到红包,有的来自父母、有的来自成年亲戚和朋友。

红包里的钱被称为“压岁钱”(suppress-age-money), 压岁钱旨在祝福孩子平安健康。

有些成年人也给他们的父母发红包, 以祝福他们在新的一年里健康和好运。

在当代社会,春节给父母红包或给孩子压岁钱的习俗在中国文化中依然被普遍接受。

16.作为一名在中美合资企业(Sino-American joint venture)工作了两年的美国经理,我认为中国人和美国人在经营管理中存在着差异。

由于我们之间有着不同的文化传统,所以我们比大部分中国同行来得直率。

我无法断言我们的经营方式一定在他们的之上。

毕竟各有各的优缺点。

近年来,越来越多的美国经理人已经认识到中国人那种更具人情味的管理方式(the more humane way)的长处。

17.人口老龄化已经成为一个全球性的现象。

这种现象不仅已成定局,还将随着时间的推移愈演愈烈,发展中国家尤其如此。

他的社会影响广泛且其表现形式多样,如若忽视,社会必将为此付出巨大代价。

为了保证老年人口的可持续发展,国家、非政府组织、社区、家庭成员、特别是老年人自己,都要扮演重要的角色。

连接亚欧两大洲的贸易通道丝绸之路(Silk Road) 全程7000公里,其历史可以追溯到公元前二世纪。

我社安排的“丝绸之路游”始于古城西安,止于新疆首府乌鲁木齐(Urumqi)。

游客们沿途可以领略自然景观的魅力,欣赏古代艺术家高超的工艺,品尝地方风味小吃(delicacy)。

丝绸之路沿途大量的历史文物(relic)、壮丽的自然风景及有趣的地方文化,使“丝绸之路游”成为世界上最精彩的旅游项目之一。

19.中餐桌上最神奇、最有特色的用餐工具莫过于筷子。

几千年来我们中国人一直视筷子为一种最简单同时也是最有效的用餐工具。

关于筷子的用料,其种类各有不同,选材包括竹子、木材、玉石(jade)、象牙(ivory)、塑料、金银等。

对于西方人来说,掌握用筷子的方法和技巧在开始时也许难度很大,但是只要有耐心.用心去练,不久便可以熟练地使用筷子享用中餐。

如果想享用一顿真正意义上的中餐,那么花时间耐心学习用筷子的技艺不仅很有必要,而且也很有趣。

20.中国是一个多民族国家,具有经济发展不平衡的特点。

在这块辽阔的土地上,人们使用多种语言和方言。

几十年来,尽管政府一直号召推广普通话(Mandarin) 作为标准汉语,但在相当多的人口中,普通话还未能成为日常使用的交流工具。

这显然阻碍了经济发展与社会进步。

毫无疑问,推广和提倡使用普通话对加快中国改革开放的步伐是举足轻重的。

这样做,将有助于提高汉语信息管理技术,因此符合全体中国人民的根本利益。

21.中国是一个有着13亿人口的发展中国家。
