四六级翻译(五篇范例)

四六级翻译(五篇范例)第一篇:四六级翻译2016.12.四级随着中国的改革开放,如今很多年轻人都喜欢举行西式婚礼。

新娘在婚礼上穿着白色婚纱,因为白色被认为是纯洁的象征。

然而,在中国传统文化中,白色经常是葬礼上使用的颜色。

因此务必记住,白花一定不要用作祝人康复的礼物,尤其不要送给老年人或危重病人。

同样,礼金也不能装在白色的信封里,而要装在红色的信封里。

在中国文化中,黄颜色是一种很重要的颜色,因为它具有独特的象征意义。

在圭蝗(feudal)社会中,它象征统治者的权力和权威。

那时,黄色是专为皇帝使用的颜色,皇家宫殿全都漆成黄色,皇袍总是黄色的,而普通老百姓是禁止穿黄色衣服的。

在中国,黄色也是收获的象征。

秋天庄稼成熟时,田野变得一片金黄。

人们兴高采烈,庆祝丰收。

2016.12.6级随着中国经济的蓬勃发展,学汉语的人数迅速增加,使汉语成了世界上人们最爱学的语言之一。

近年来,中国大学在国际上的排名也有了明显的提高。

由于中国教育的巨大进步,中国成为最受海外学生欢迎的留学目的地之一就不足为奇了。

2015年,近四十万国际学生蜂拥来到中国学习。

他们学习的科目已不再限于中国语言和文化,而包括科学与工程。

在全球教育市场上,美国和英国仍占主导地位,但中国正在迅速赶上。

农业是中国的一个重要产业,从业者超过3亿。

中国农业产量全球第一,主要生产水稻、小麦和豆类。

虽然中国的农业用地仅占世界的百分之十,但为世界百分之二十的人口提供了粮食。

中国7700年前开始种植水稻。

早在使用机械和化肥之前,勤劳和富有创造性的中国农民就已经采用各种各样的方法来增加农作物产量。

中国农业最新的发展是推进有机农业。

有机农业可以同时服务于多种目的,包括食品安全、大众健康和可持续发展。

随着生活水平的提高,度假在中国人生活中的作用越来越重要。

过去,中国人的时间主要花在谋生上,很少有机会外出旅行。

然而,近年来中国旅游业发展迅速。

经济的繁荣和富裕中产阶级的出现,引发了一个前所未有的旅游热潮。
