从除夕开始一直延续到元宵节（the Lantern Festival），即从农历（lunar
calendar）

traditional Chinese holiday. In China, it
is
also known as the Spring Festival. New Year
celebrations run from Chinese New
Years Eve,
the last day of the last month of the lunar
calendar, to the Lantern Festival
on the 15th
day of the first month. Customs and traditions
concerning the celebration
of the Chinese New
Year vary widely from place to place. However, New
Years Eve
is usually an occasion for Chinese
families to gather for the annual reunion dinner.
It
is also traditional for every family to
thoroughly clean the house in order to sweep
away ill fortune and to bring in good luck.
And doors will be decorated with red
couplets
with themes of health, wealth and good luck. Other
activities include lighting
firecrackers,
giving money in red envelopes, and visiting

个国家级保护地标，

3.波士顿咨询公司最近做的一项研究显示，到2020年中国
将会有2.2亿家庭收入在2万到100
万美元的富裕消费者。这些消费者中75%住在“较小城市”。
随着网络的发展，较小城市的
消费者的一种必然趋势是他们更加依赖社交网络服务上的信息。很多网络顾
客都是通过微
信、微博和QQ空间分组的。据估计今年中国将会有2.5亿消费者进行网购，位于四线城
市的
消费者平均每人会花费他们50%或者更高的工资在网购上，这一数据要比一线城市的消费者
的花费高。
【参考译文】A recent study conducted by the
Boston Consulting Group says there
will be 220
million affluent consumers, who are from
households earning between
$$ 20,000 to $$ 1
million, in China by 2020, and 75 percent of them
will live in
“smaller” cities. With the
development of the Internet, an inevitable trend
among
these consumers is they are much more
dependent on information from social networking
services. Many of the website’s customers are
“grouped” by Wechat, Weibo and QQ
Zones. It is now estimated that 250
million Chinese consumers will shop online this
year and the average shopper in a fourth-tier
city in China will spend 50 percent
or more of
their income on e-commerce than those in top-tier
cities.
4 聘金是中国传统习俗的一部分。这一习惯在整个中国都很普遍。但是近几年来其标
准不断
上升，致使大多数家庭都很难达到。高额的聘礼常常“抢劫”了新郎父母必生的积蓄，甚至
引起家庭纠纷。此外，许多新婚夫妇被迫举行奢侈的婚礼宴会，在这个过程中，大量债务的
累积可能使
他们的新婚生活变得辛酸，至少在最初阶段是这样。想想老一辈节俭的婚礼，虽
然简简单单，但也幸福美
满，没有给他们婚后的生活带来任何负担。
【参考译文】Endowment may be
part of Chinese tradition, but the standards have
become so high in recent years that a majority
of families are finding it difficult
to meet
them. The high endowment amounts often rob grooms’
parents of their life’s
savings and causes
family disputes. Besides, many newly married
couples are forced
to host extravagant wedding
ceremonies to keep up with the Joneses and, in the
process,
run up huge debts that could turn
their married life sour, at least in the initial
phase. Considering the frugal wedding of many
parents, simple but happiness, didn’t
have any
bearing on their married life.

要了解中国文化，就应该对中国的戏曲文化有所了解。中国地方戏种类很多，其中京剧
是一个具有代表
性的剧种。作为一个独立的剧种，京剧的诞生大约是在1840年至I860年。
京剧是在吸收其他地方
戏营养的基础 上形成的。京剧有明确的角色分工;在念白上用北京方
言;在音乐上以胡琴为主要伴奏乐
器。由于京剧是在融
合各种地方戏之精华的基础上形成
的，所以它不仅为北京的观众所钟爱，也受到全国人民的喜爱。

you have to know something about the Chinese
opera culture. In China, there are many kinds
of local operas, among which Peking
Opera is a
representative one. As an independent opera form,
Peking Opera was
approximately born between
1840 and I860. Peking opera originated from
absorbing
the essentials of other local
operas. In Peking Opera there is a clear division
of
roles; the spoken parts are in Beijing
dialect; and huqin, is the main accompaniment
instrument. Since Peking Opera has combined
the cream of various local operas, it
is
enjoyed not only by Beijing audience, but also by
people all over the country.

日期方面，美英英语的表达
方式是有差别的。以日为先，月份为后，此为英国式；美国式则
与此相反，以月为先，日期则在后。如一
九九六年三月二日的写法：
2nd March, 1996（英）
March 2,
1996（美）
在美式的写法中，1st, 2nd, 3rd的st, nd, rd是不使用的。
由于日期书面表达不同，读法也
不一样。如1987年4月20日，英式的写法是20th
April, 1987，读成the twentieth of April,
nineteen
eighty-seven；美式的表达是April 20, 1987，则读成April the
twentieth, nineteen
eighty-seven。同样，全部用数字表达日期时
，英美也有差别。1998年5月6日按照英国式应
写成6598，而按照美国式应写成5698；01
.08.1998是英国式的1998年8月1日，按照美国
的表达方式却是1998年1月8日，美国
的1998年8月1日应写成08，01，1998
