1.中國經(jīng)濟(jì)的高速發(fā)展，帶來了消費(fèi)文化的曰益流行，同時也催 生了一批具有高學(xué)歷，充分享受資本主義消費(fèi)模式的年輕人，他 們習(xí)慣于當(dāng)月工資當(dāng)月花。因而被稱為月光族。月光族一詞出現(xiàn)于20世紀(jì)90年代后期，是用來諷刺那 些出身富裕、接受高等教育、充分享受快餐文化的 年輕人。

　　翻譯：Chinas economy is developing very quickly, and has brought with it a culture of consumption more prevalent with each passing day. At the same time, it has brought into being an educated group of young people who enjoy capitalist consumption way. Theyre used to spending money as soon as they get it every month, and so are called t6the moon?light group. This word came into being during the 1990s, to make fun of those bom into wealth，who have received a high education, and who ap?preciate fast food culture.

　　2.京劇是中國的國粹。作為一門古老的藝術(shù)，京劇的服裝、臉譜更易被人喜愛。不同的服裝 類型反映不同的人物身份特征。富貴者的服裝綴滿精美的刺繡;窮困 者的服裝則簡單樸素，少有裝飾。臉譜是京劇中塑造人物 形象的重要手段，它是用不同的顏色在臉上勾畫出來的。臉譜的顏 色讓人一看便知角色的善惡。比如白色代表奸詐， 黑色代表正直不阿，黃色是驍勇，藍(lán)、綠色多用于綠林好漢，金、銀色多用于神佛等。

　　翻譯：Beijing Opera is the cream of the Chinese culture. As a tradi?tional art form, its costumes and facial mask are more popular with people. Different styles of costumes are used to reflect the status of different characters. There are more decorations in the costumes of nobles，while those of the poor tend to be simple and less elemental. Facial masks can reflect qualities of different characters. Facial masks using different colors are important ways to portray a character. People can tell a hero from a villain by the colors of the masks. In general，white usually represents treachery, black represents righteousness, yellow represents bravery, blue and green represent rebellious fighters，while gold and silver represent divinity and Buddhism.

　　3.中國城市化將會充分釋放潛在內(nèi)需。一些經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家指出，在中國幾乎所有的發(fā)展中城市都面臨 著城市化的進(jìn)程。這使得許多人的生活水平有所提高，也為人們提 供更多的就業(yè)機(jī)會。隨著越來越多的人向城市遷徙，住房及城市基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施建設(shè),包括水源等能源的供應(yīng)將會 成為城市發(fā)展的焦點(diǎn)問題。商品與服務(wù)的自由、快速流通是城市化 社會的一項(xiàng)基本特征。逐漸擴(kuò)張的城市需要更多的零售店來滿足消費(fèi)者的需求。

　　翻譯：　Chinas urbanization will release the full potential of domestic demand. Some economists point out that urbanization is a process that is occurring in nearly every developing city in the country. It will lead to a better quality of life for many people，and provide individuals with more job opportunities. The construction of housing and city infrastructure, in?cluding water and energy supplies, will be a focal point of urban develop?ment as more people migrate to cities. Urbanization means better access to educational and medical resources in the city. But it also predicts less use of personal vehicles and more use of public transportation. The fast, free flow of goods and services is a basic trait of an urbanized society. Ex-panding cities require more retail outlets to serve customers.

　　4.目前，全球變暖是一個熱門話題，但是有關(guān)全球變暖的各項(xiàng)證 據(jù)似乎還有些不同的聲音。人們現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)知道，地球的發(fā)展經(jīng)歷了 很多周期,盡管在歷史上還未出現(xiàn)過像今天這樣的時代，即 高度工業(yè)化產(chǎn)生如此多的污染。全球變暖主要是由 于二氧化碳?xì)怏w的增多。

　　翻譯：Global warming is the hot topic around the world at this time but, there is also dissention about the evidence being presented to support the argument. The earth is known to go through cycles; although the past has never produced an age of so much industrialization causing the pollution currently being experienced. A major source of the problem is the increase in carbon dioxide levels.

　　5.現(xiàn)代人類約公元前50000年第一次從中亞或印度來到中國。這 些石器時代的人，居住在洞穴中，穿著毛皮。公元前 4000年左右，這些人開始種植水稻，并飼養(yǎng)羊和雞。約公元前3000年， 他們開始使用陶器并住在房子里。到公元前2000年，中國 人已進(jìn)入青銅時代，并開始用于寫字。約公元前700年， 中國的金屬工人學(xué)會制作鐵器工具和武器。

　　翻譯：Modem humans first came to China from Central Asia or India about 50,000 BC. These were Stone Age people, who lived in caves and wore fur and leather. By around 4,000 BC, these people were starting to farm rice and keep sheep and chickens. By about 3,000 BC, they were using pottery and living in houses. By 2,000 BC，Chinese people had entered the Bronze Age and had begun to use writing. By about 700 BC， Chinese metal-workers learned to make iron tools and weapons.
