崇尚科学反对邪教-中国护照背面

1、狮舞（Lion Dance）是中国最广为流传的民间舞蹈之一。狮为百兽之首，在中国传 统中，狮子被
视为是能带来好运的吉祥物（mascot）。古人将狮子视作是勇敢和力量的化身，能驱 赶邪恶、保护人
类。据记载，狮舞已拥有了2,000多年的历史。在唐代（theTang Dynasty），狮舞就已经被引入了
皇室。因此，舞狮成为元宵节（the Lantern Festival）和其他节日的习俗，人们以此来祈祷好运、
平安和幸福。

The Lion Dance is one of the most widespread folk dances in lion
is the king of animals. In Chinese tradition, the lion is regarded as a
mascot, which can bring good t people regarded the lion as a
symbol of braveness and strength, which could drive away evil and protect
humans. The dance has a recorded history of more than 2,000 years. During
the Tang Dynasty, the Lion Dance was already introduced into the royal
family of the dynasty. Therefore, performing the lion dance at the Lantern
Festival and other festive occasions became a custom where people could
pray for good luck, safety and happiness.


2、中 国将进一步发展经济、扩大开放，这对海外企业（enterprises）意味着更多的商机。改革开放
以来，中国企业与海外企业一直积极开展经济技术合作，并取得了巨大成就。海外企业不仅帮助了中
国 企业的成长，而且也在合作中获得了收益。中国政府将继续提供有利的政策和条件，推动中国企业
与国外 企业进一步开展合作。

China will develop its economy further and open itself wider to the outside
world, which offers more business opportunities to overseas enterprises.
Since China’s reform and opening up, Chinese enterprises have been
cooperating with overseas enterprises in terms of economy and technology,
and have scored great achievement. Overseas enterprises have not only
helped Chinese enterprises with their growth, but also benefited from the
cooperation. Chinese government will continue to offer favorable policies
and conditions to promote the further cooperation between Chinese and
overseas enterprises.

3、假日经济的现象表明：中国消费者的消费观正在发生巨大变化。根据统计数据，中国消费者的消费需求正在从基本生活必需品转向对休闲、舒适和个人发展的需求。同时，中国人的消费观在蓬勃发
展的假日经济中正变得成熟。因此产品结构应做相应调整，来适应社会的发展。另一方面，服务质量
要改 善，以满足人们提高生活质量的要求。

The phenomenon of holiday economy shows that Chinese people’s
consumption concept is undertaking great ing to statistics,
the demands of Chinese consumers are shifting from the basic necessities
of life to leisure, comfort and personal development. Therefore, the
structure of products should be adjusted accordingly to adapt to social
development. On the other hand, services should be improved to satisfy
people’s demand for an improved quality of life.

4、端午节，又叫龙舟节，是为了纪念爱国诗人屈原。屈原是一位忠诚和受人 敬仰的大臣（minister）,
他给国家带来了和平和繁荣。但最后因为受到诽谤（vilify） 而最终投河自尽。人们撑船到他自尽的
地方，抛下粽子，希望鱼儿吃粽子，不要吃屈原的身躯。几千年来 ，端午节的特色在于吃粽子（glutinous
dumplings）和赛龙舟，尤其是在一些河湖密布的南方省份。

The Duanwu Festival, also called the Dragon Boat Festival, is to commemorate the
patriotic poet Qu Yuan. Qu Yuan was a loyal and highly esteemed minister, who brought
peace and prosperity to the state but ended up drowning himself in a river as a result
of being got to the spot by boat and cast glutinous dumplings into
the water,hoping that the fishes ate the dumplings instead of Qu Yuan’s body. For
thousands of years, the festival has been marked by glutinous dumplings and dragon
boat races, especially in the southern provinces where there are many rivers and
lakes
.



5、2013年6月20日在中国各地 ，剧估计60万儿童和他们的老师观看了有宇航员（astronaut）王
亚平在距离地球300公里 的上空所讲授的科学课。王亚平与两个同事乘坐天宫一号实验舱
(theTiangon-1 laboratory module) 执行为期两周的任务。她在课上进行了一系列太空的物理演示。
在有些演示中还对比了在地球上重力（one-gravity）环境下同样的实验。这堂物理课不仅让孩子们
享受了一堂知识与乐趣兼具的物理课，也显示了我国通信科技的前进。

On June 20, 2013, an estimated 600 thousand school children and their teachers across China
watched a science lesson taught from 300km above the Earth by astronaut Wang Yaping. Wang
is aboard theTiangong-1 laboratory module with two crewmates, for a two-week mission. Her
lesson swere a series of physics demonstrations in the space. In some demonstrations,she
compared with the same experiment under the one-gravity environment on Earth. The lesson
has not only offered children a physics lesson with knowledge and interest, but also shows
the advance in communication technology of China.


6 、朝气蓬勃，充满活力，丰富多彩的上海是现代中国的缩影。虽然上海的文化遗迹不能与北京媲美，
但是 上海迷人的城市风貌，风格各异的万国建筑为这座城市注入了无限的魅力。今日之上海，已经成
为享誉中 外的国际大都市。漫步在这座日新月异的现代大都市里，你会发现许多精彩的历史亮点，隐
现在众多摩天 大楼背后的是上海发展变化的轨迹。它们记述了上海自十九世纪末开埠以来，尤其是新
中国成立以后，是 如何迅猛发展的。

Shanghai is a dynamic, diverse and stimulating city - the very epitome of modern China. Though
Shanghai cannot rival Beijing in cultural heritage, its varied architectural styles and
cosmopolitan feel give it a charm of its own. Today's Shanghai has become a world-famous
international metropolis. A walk through this booming city reveals many glimpses of its
colorful past. Hidden

amongst the skyscrapers are remains of the original Shanghai. They keep on showing how
Shanghai has been developing fast and enormously since its opening as a commercial port in
the late 19th century, especially after the founding of new China.



7、近代以来，亚洲经历了曲折和艰难的发展历程。亚洲人们为改变自己的命运， 始终以不屈的意志
和艰辛的奋斗开辟前进道路。今天，人们所看到的亚洲发展成就，是勤劳智慧的亚洲人 民不屈不挠、
锲而不舍奋斗的结果。亚洲人民深知，世界上没有放之四海而皆准的发展模式，也没有一成 不变的发
展道路，亚洲人民勇于变革创新，不断开拓进取，探索和开辟适应时代潮流，符合自身实际的发 展道
路，为经济社会发展打开了广阔前景。

In modern times, Asia experienced twists and turns in its development. To change their destiny,
the people of Asia have been forging ahead in an indomitable spirit and with hard struggle.
Asia'sdevelopment achievements today are the result of the persistent efforts of the

industrious and talented Asian people. The people of Asia are fully aware that there is no
ready model or unchanging path of development that is universally applicable. They never
shy away from reform and innovation. Instead, they are committed to exploring and finding
development paths that are in line with the trend of the times and their own situations,
and have opened up bright prospects for economic and social development.



8、吸烟之危害，可谓大矣，其严重性是不能低估的。吸烟污染空气，损害健康， 使肺癌发病率大大
增加。为了使各国人民关注烟草的盛行及预防吸烟导致的疾病和死亡，世界卫生组织已 将每年的5月
31日定为“世界无烟日”。瘾君子们说，一天饭不吃可以，一个时辰不抽烟就难捱了，不 能戒。只
要真正意识到吸烟有百害而无一利，于人于己都是一种祸害，就有可能下决心摆脱烟草的诱惑。 戒烟
贵在坚持，坚持下去就是收获。

Smoking does great harm to human and its gravity should not be underestimated. Smoking
pollutes air, damages health, and increases the incidence of lung cancer. To arouse the
awareness about the prevalence of tobacco in all the countries and to prevent smoking-induced
diseases and deaths, the WHO (World Health Organization) has defined May 31stin every year
as World No-Tobacco Day. The tobacco addicts say that smoking is impossible to quit because
they could do without meals in a day but would feel tortured without tobacco in two hours.
However, when one realizes that smoking is harmful in many ways but beneficial in no way
and that it is a curse to others as well as to he himself, he will be determined to resist
the temptation of tobacco. To quit smoking requires persistence and so long as one persists,
he’ll be rewarded.



9、越来越多受英文教育的海外华人父母，已经认识到孩子在掌握不可或缺的英文的同时，也通晓中
文 的重要性。中国的崛起，让他们充分认识到孩子掌握双语的好处——既能增加他们的就业机会，也
能让他 们接触和熟悉东西方两种不同的文化。这些人对中文的态度几乎没有完全改变。曾几何时，他
们还非常骄 傲地宣称自己只懂英文。现在，他们已开始积极支持孩子学习中文和中国文化，而且还不
时走访中国，欣 赏壮观的自然风光，认识丰富的文化遗产。

An increasing number of English-educated Chinese parents overseas have come to the
realization that while English learning is indispensable to their children, it is essential
that their kids have a good command of Chinese. China’s rise has fully awakened their
awareness of the fact that their kids can benefit from their bilingual ability which can
not only enhance their competitiveness in the job market, but also facilitate their exposure
to and familiarity with the two different cultures between the East and the West. They have
hardly changed their attitudes towards Chinese. At one time they proudly declared that they
knew English only. Now, they have begun to give full support to their kids learning Chinese
and its culture, and they also make occasional visits to China, where they can enjoy its
magnificent natural landscape and get to know its rich cultural heritage.



10、我赞同许多东亚学者的观点，东方文明可以医治盛行于西方世界的一些顽疾。西方世界个人自由
主义泛滥导致了极端个人主义、性关系混乱以及过度暴力行为，对此我们不能视而不见。 相反，
东方社会的自我约束力，集体责任感以及温厚儒雅的传统倒可以消除西方社会的许多恶疾。 在这
个信息时代，世界已缩小成一个地球村。这个地球村里，不再有什么泾渭分明的东方世界和西方世界，< br>我们是生活在同一个社区里的邻里。 因此，我们彼此之间无须冲突。我们之间的关系应该是一种
友好合作，平等互补的关系。我们应该相互理解，相互学习，和睦共处。

I share the same view with many East Asian scholars that the Oriental civilization can heal
some of the prevailing ,stubborn Western ills. We should not turn a blind eye to the fact
that individual freedom has gone overboard in the West, resulting in extreme individualism,
sexual promiscuity and excessive use of violence. By contrast, self-discipline, corporate
responsibility and the pacific tradition of East Asia can offset many Western vices. At
this age of information, the world has shrunk as a global village in which there will be
no clear-cut worlds of the East and the West any more, but a world of one community with
neighboring families. Therefore, we do not necessarily have to come into clash with each
other. Our relationship is one of friendly cooperation, equality and mutual complementarity
and therefore, we should understand and learn from each other, and live in harmony.



11、国际贸易的基本原则是平等互利，各国追求各自的利益是正常的，出现一些摩擦和纠纷 也是不可
避免的。关键要以冷静而明智的态度正确对待和处理摩擦和纠纷。 就中美贸易而言，互利共赢 的
经贸关系给两国人民带来了实实在在的经济利益。今天，美国在华投资设立的企业已超过4 万家，投
资额达450 亿美元。 美国500 强企业有400 多家进入中国，大多数企业获利丰厚 。与此同时，在
美国市场上，许多中国商品受到美国消费者的青睐。中国在美国投资设立的企业已超过1 000 家。 我
们可以预见，中美贸易摩擦将随着经贸关系的深化而凸显，但是中美经贸合作的总体发 展是不可逆转
的。主要有两个原因，其一：中美贸易具有很大互补性。其二：中国产品具有明显的劳动力 成本优势。


Equality and mutual benefit is the fundamental principle of international trade. Therefore,
it is normal tha tcountries will seek to protect their own interests, which may lead to trade
frictions and disputes. The key lies in how to cope with these issues correctly in a cool
and wise manner. As for China-US trade, mutually beneficial and win-win trade and economic
ties have delivered tangible economic benefits to the two peoples. Now, with over 40,000
U.S.- invested enterprises, the total investment in China stands at $$45 billion. Of the
top 500 U.S companies, more than 400 have their business in China, and most of them are making
handsome profit. At the same time, many Chinese commodities have become favored choices of
American consumers .Meanwhile, the number of Chinese-invested enterprises in the United
Sates has surpassed 1,000. We predict that trade disputes between China and the United
States will become more acute along with the further development in bilateral trade and
economic cooperation. The overall development in bilateral trade and economic cooperation
is, however, irreversible. There are two factors contribute to this trend. Firstly, the
Sino-U.S. economic and trade relations enjoy complementarities in vast fields. Secondly,
China has an outstanding labor cost advantage.



12、中国国际出版集团是中国最大的、最权威 的外语出版发行单位，其前身是中央人民政府新闻出版
署国际新闻局。 我集团坚持“让中国走向世界， 让世界了解中国”的出版原则，全心致力于中国
外语教育与研究事业的发展，全心致力于中外文化交流事 业的拓展。 为了加强对出版人才队伍的
建设，为了满足日益增长的特殊出版业务的需要，我集团每年都 要选派一些青年员工到国内外知名高
等学府和研究机构进修， 根据我们的发展战略，我们会将前进的步 伐迈出国界走向世界，瞄准海
外读者群，这一战略已取得了良好的开局。

The China International Publishing Group is the largest and the most authoritative foreign
language publishing and distribution establishment, its predecessor being the International
Press Bureau of the Central People's Government Press and Publication

ng to the publishing philosophy of “assisting China's march to the
world and facilitating world's understanding of China”, the Group commits itself entirely
to promoting foreign language education and research in China and advancing cultural
exchanges between China and foreign countries. In order to build up a strong team of
publishing staff, as well as to meet the growing need of more technically demanding business,
the Group makes it a rule that young staff be selected and sent to noted universities and
research institutions, both domestic and overseas, for further studies. As is clearly
spelled out in our new development strategy, we will go beyond our national boundaries and
wedge ourselves into the world circulation market, aiming at the international readership.
Our initial efforts have been very rewarding.



13、改革开放30 年来，随着中国逐渐崛起 成为政治经济强国，海外人士学习汉语的现象与日俱增，
海外孔子学院也成了人们学习中国语言和中国文 化的首选之地。 通过学习汉语，他们对这个和自
己文化大相径庭的古老文明产生了浓厚的兴趣，而且有 机会了解中国的哲学、艺术、医学、饮食文化，
亲身体验这个文明古国的风采。 作为第二文化，中国文 化也丰富了他们的生活和世界观。可以说，
这个潮流方兴未艾。越来越多的学习汉语的美国人除了对中国 菜肴赞不绝口之外，也在尝试针灸，草
药和武术。他们也看功夫电影，学习东方时装潮流和手工艺，不知 不觉的在日常生活中谈及中国的
点心，人参、银杏，乌龙茶等。目前在美国最热门的中国文化是道家学说 和有着神秘色彩的风水学。

As China is rising as a political and economic world power, thanks to its three-decade reform
and opening up, more and more people in overseas countries start to learn Chinese and turn
to a Confucius Institute in their own countries as their first choice learning Chinese
language and Chinese culture. During the learning process, the learners concurrently
develop their interest in this ancient land, whose civilization is so vastly different from
theirs. And the learners have opportunities to learn about Chinese philosophy, art,
architecture, medicine and catering culture and experience first-hand the splendors of this
venerable civilization. As the second culture, Chinese culture has enriched the life and
world outlook of the learners. This trend, so to speak, is gathering momentum and is there
to stay. Apart from their love for Chinese cuisine, more and more American learners of Chinese
language are turning to Chinese acupuncture ,herbal medicines, martial arts. They are also
interested in kongfu films,fashions and crafts. Seemingly outlandish words such as dim sum,
ginseng,gingko, oolong cha have crept into their everyday language. The latest Chinese
cultural icons to make its impact there are Taoism, and ancient school of thought, and
fengshui, an ancient art of placement.



14、上海菜系是中国最年轻的地方菜系，通常被成为“本帮菜”，有着400多 年的历史。同中国其他
菜系一样，“本帮菜”具有“色，香，味”三大要素。上海菜的特点是注重调料的 使用，食物的质
地和菜的原汁原味。其中最著名的有特色点心“南翔小笼”和特色菜“松鼠鲑鱼”。“南 翔小笼”
是猪肉馅，个小味美，皮薄汁醇。“松鼠鲑鱼”色泽黄亮，形如松鼠，外皮脆而内肉嫩，汤汁酸 甜适
口。在品尝过“松鼠鲑鱼”之后，我们常常惊讶于“松鼠”的形状，觉得在三大评价标准上在添加< br>“形”这个标准才更合适。

Shanghai cuisine , usually called Benbang cuisine, is the youngest among themajor regional
cuisines in China,with a history of more than 400 years. Like all other Chinese regional
cuisines,Benbang cuisines takes “color, aroma and taste” as its essential
ai cuisine emphasizes in particular the expert use of seasonings,

the selection of raw materials with quality texture, and original flavors. Shanghai cuisine
is famous for a special snack known as Nanxiang Steamed Meat Dumplings and a special dish
called “Squirrel- Shaped Mandarin Fish”.Nanxiang Steamed Meat Dumplings are small in size,
with thin and translucent wrappers, filled inside with ground pork and rich tasty soup.
Squirrel-Shaped Mandarin Fish is yellow-colored and squirrel- shaped, with a crispy skin and
tender meat, all covered with a sweet and sour tasting Squirrel-Shaped
Mandarin Fish, we are always amazed by the squirrel shape and think that it is more appropriate
to plus “appearance” as the fourth element.
