端午节,又称龙舟节和重五(Double Fifth),是一个源于中国的传统节日。每年的农历五月初五为端午节。这就是重五这一别称的由来。端午节里流传最广的三种活动是吃粽子、喝雄黄酒(realgar wine)以及赛龙舟。其他常见的活动还包括挂钟馗(Zhong Kui)像、写咒符(spells)和佩戴香囊药包(perfumed medicine bags)。古代的人们认为,所有这些活动,连同喝雄黄酒,都能有效防病驱邪、促进生活安康。
Duanwu Festival, also known as Dragon Boat Festival and the Double Fifth, is a traditional festival originating in China. The festival occurs on the 5th day of the 5th month of the lunar calendar. This is the origin of its alternative name, Double Fifth. Three of the most widespread activities for Duanwu Festival are eating zongzi, drinking realgar wine, and racing dragon boats. Other common activities include hanging up icons of Zhong Kui, writing spells and wearing perfumed medicine bags. All of these activities, together with the drinking of realgar wine, were regarded by the ancients as effective in preventing disease and evil, and promoting health and well-being.

端午节可以追溯到公元前227年的战国时代。这个节日是为了纪念楚国的大夫屈原,他因为对朝廷的贪污腐败感到绝望而投河自尽。镇上的人纷纷冲上船去救他,却没有成功。后来大家把米撒到水里,希望把饥饿的鱼群从他的躯体边引开。多年以后,屈原逝世的故事逐渐演变成赛龙舟和吃粽子(一种包在竹叶中的米食)的传统。2009年,端午节被联合国教科文组织宣布为非物质文化遗产。 端午节 the Dragon Boat Festival 追溯到 date back to

The Dragon Boat Festival can date back to the Warring States Period in 227 B.C. The festival commemorates Qu Yuan, a minister in the service of the Chu Emperor. Despairing over corruption at court, Qu threw himself into a river. Townspeople jumped into their boats and tried in vain to save him. Then, hoping to distract hungry fish from his body, the people scattered rice into the water. Over the years, the story of Qu’s death transformed into the traditions of racing dragon boats and eating zongzi—a kind of rice wrapped in bamboo leaves. The Chinese Dragon Boat Festival was proclaimed an intangible cultural heritage by the United Nations’ Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 2009

考点分析:
1.有了它,我就不再忧愁寂寞,不再怕人情冷暖,世态炎凉。 分析:
原文存在两个“不再”的并列否定结构,宜使用连词结构“never?nor?”将其意义紧密地联系起来。“有了它”用“with”引导的介词短语来呈现。“人情冷暖”:social snobbery;“世态炎凉” fickleness of the world。 2.我真的是“不可一日无此君”。 分析:
“不可一日无此君”采用英文结构“can not do without”,表示“没有?而不能活,难受”,故译成“I cannot do without them even for a single day”,符合原文的意思。 背景链接:
节选自柯灵的《书的抒情》,原文作者将书籍比作“良友”,“青春期的恋人”,“中年的知己”,“暮年的伴侣”,字里行间对书籍充满了深厚的感情。
无论如何,创造财富的物质资源,不论其初始分配如何,最终是要通过各种各样的渠道,流入到具有企业家精神的人手里,这是自由市场的一个基本趋势。这些人获得对他人的财富的支配权、使用权,以之为自己创造财富,并积累财富。这正是自由市场具有效率的根源。它可以动态地、自发地把资源从资源利用效率较低的人手里转移到资源利用效率较高的人手里。中国人讲“富不过三代”,其中有一些无奈,但也揭示了自由市场的精髓所在:财富本身并不能充当财富的保障。因为,财富本来就不是财富创造出来的。 参考答案:
However,no matter how they are allocated in the firset place,the material resources which can create fortune will flow into entrepreneurs'hands eventually through various channels.It is the basic tendency of free market.Those people acquire the right of disposal and the right of use of other people's wealth to create and accumulate wealth for them.This is the very source of efficiency of free market.It can dynamically and spontaneously transfers the resources from the people who are inefficient in resourses use to the people who are efficient in resources use.There is a Chinese saying that “the rich can not last three generations”.It has no alternative but also reveals some pith and marrow of the free market:the fortune itself can not be be guraantee of the fortune,because the fortune is not created by fortune. 考点分析:
中国人讲“富不过三代”,其中有一些无奈,但也揭示了自由市场的精髓所在。
