9、农历八月十五日是中国的传统节日——中秋节。在这天，每个家庭都团聚在一起，一家人共同观赏象征丰裕、和谐和幸运的圆月。此时，大人们吃着美味的月饼，品着热腾腾的香茗，而孩子们则在一旁拉着灯笼尽情玩耍。中秋节最早可能是一个庆祝丰收的节日。后来，月宫里美丽的仙女嫦娥的神话故事赋予了它神话色彩。此后，每年中秋月圆之时，人们向月宫仙女嫦娥祈福的传说便流传开来。

参考译文：

\celebrated on the 15th day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar. It is a time for family members and loved ones to get together and enjoy the full moon - a symbol of abundance, harmony and luck. Adults will usually indulge in fragrant mooncakes of many varieties with a good cup of piping hot Chinese tea, while the little ones run around with their lanterns. \Qiu Jie\probably began as a harvest festival. The festival was later given a mythological flavour with legends of Chang-E, the beautiful lady in the moon. Thus started the legend of the lady in the moon to whom people would pray at the Mid-Autumn Festival.

10、端午节，又称为五五节，因为端午节是在农历的五月五日，它是中国重要的节庆之一。这个节日是为了纪念楚国 (the Chu Emperor) 的大夫屈原，他因为对朝廷 (court) 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。

参考译文：

The Dragon Boat Festival, also called Double Fifth Festival, is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth moon of the lunar calendar. It is one of the most important Chinese festivals. 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 on the water. Over the years, the story of Qu’s demise transformed into the traditions of racing dragon boats and eating zongzi – a kind of rice wrapped in bamboo leaves.

11、春节是中国最重要的节日，也是大家所熟悉的中国新年。对于中国人来说，这个节日的重要性如同圣诞节对于西方人。 具体的节庆日期是由农历（lunar calendar）而不是由公历（Gregorian calendar）决定的。所以，春节的节庆日期一般在元月下旬与二月上旬之间。新年的准备活动自腊月底（农历年底）开始，人们忙于扫尘，还清债务，理发，置新衣。人们也会在家中或到庙里烧香（burn incense）祭祖，祈求老天爷保佑平安。

译文：The most important holiday in China is the Spring Festival, which is also known as the Chinese New Year. To the Chinese people it is as important as Christmas to the westerners. The date for this annual celebration is determined by the lunar calendar rather than the Gregorian calendar, so the timing of the holiday varies form late January to early February. Preparations for the New Year begin on the final days of the last lunar month when most families clean their homes, pay their debts, have their hair cut and buy new clothes. People also burn incense at home or in the temples to pay respect to their ancestors and to pray to the God for a happy life in the coming year.

12、原文：中国日益扩大的国际接触对其进步一直是至关重要的。中国能够在已取得的经济成功的基础上进一步发展，关键是它进入了世界市场。让我们看几个统计数字。1979年以来，外贸占中国国民生产总值（Gross National Product/GNP）的比重从10%上升到45%。融入世界市场已成为中国经济生活的一个基本事实。继之而来的是融入世界投资体系。外国资金大量流入中国，外资存量（reserve of foreign funds）从1989年的50亿美元上升到1994年的近900亿美元。

译文：China’s growing international engagement has been vital to her progress. The key to sustaining and building on early economic success was China’s move into the world markets. Let’s consider a couple of statistics. Since 1979 foreign trade, as a share of China’s GNP has risen from 10% to 45%. Integration in the world markets became a bare fact of Chinese economic life. With that came integration into the world investment system. Foreign funds flowed into China in a spectacular way. The reserve of foreign funds grew form ＄ 5 billion in 1989 to nearly 90 billion by 1994.
