四、短文翻译（每题10分，共20分）

现代化交通设备、无线电通讯和大众传播媒体已经缩短了世界各地间的距离。

2. I'm with the view that in this modern world, the culture of any nation cannot develop in isolation. And I believe that different cultures should learn from each other's strengths to offset their own weaknesses.

Cultural exchange, I think, is by no means a process of losing one's own culture to a foreign culture, but a process of enriching each other's national cultures.
我赞同这类的看法：当今的民族文化不可能在自我封闭的状态下得以发展。

在我看来，不同的文化应该互相学习，取长补短。

我认为，文化交流绝不是一个以损失自身文化为代价去接纳外国文化的过程，而是一个互相丰富各民族文化的过程。
