1鄉愁

思鄉(homesickness)是中國人的一個永恆的話題。從古至今，無論男女，家是他們永久的港灣，思鄉是他們不老的情結(complex)。正是這樣的情結成為中國歷代文人重要的創作題材，並以各種方式，從各種角度加以體現。是故鄉，喚起了他們心靈深處最美好的回憶，在對故鄉的思念中，他們又彷彿回到了那單純無邪的童年時代，回到了母親的懷抱，身心的創傷得到了暫時的平復，精神的空虛得到了剎那的充實,故鄉成了他們終極的歸宿地(ultimate destination)。

參考譯文

Homesickness is an eternal topic for Chinese people.Since ancient times, home has been a permanent harbor for both men and women, and homesickness is their ever-young complex.It is such kind of complex that becomes the important theme of Chinese literati in all dynasties; they expressed this theme in various ways and from various angles.It is home that arouses the best memories in their hearts.Thanks to those memories, they feel like going back to the pure and innocent childhood and returning to mothers arms.The wounds in body and mind will get healed temporarily and spiritual emptiness will be enriched for a while.Home has become their ultimate destination.

2論唐詩的輝煌

唐代是中國古典詩歌的鼎盛時期，在不到300年的時間裡，產生了許多著名的詩人和詩作。時至今日，有超過5萬首唐詩和2000多位唐代詩人為人們所熟知。其中，唐代最著名的詩人是李白和杜甫。李白生性無拘無束，才華橫溢，他創作了大量讚美祖國大好河山的詩篇。杜甫年輕時坎坷的生活經歷，使他更好地了解了社會的黑暗和人民的困苦。最流行的唐詩作品集或許是由清朝的學者孫洙編著的《唐詩三百首》(300 Tang Poems)。唐詩一直在影響著世界文學和現代詩歌。

參考譯文

The Tang Dynasty was the peak of Chinese classical poetry and many distinguished poets and poetry appeared during this period of less than 300 years.Up till now,over 50,000 poems and 2,000 poets of the Tang Dynasty have been well-known among people.The best-known poets during the Tang Dynasty are Li Bai and Du Fu. Being independent and full of talent,Li Bai created a great many poems to praise the wonderful mountains and brilliant rivers.Du Fus rough experiences when he was young made him know better about the darkness society and the peoples sufferings.The most popular Tang poems collection might be the 300 Tang Poems compiled by the scholar Sun Zhu of the Qing Dynasty.Tang poetry has had an ongoing influence on world literature and modern poetry.

3尊老愛幼從小做起

在中國，尊老愛幼是中華民族的優秀傳統。早在漢朝時期(the Han Dynasty), 政府就曾多次頒布法令，提倡並獎勵孝敬老人的行為。中國人以愛、教育、友善和嚴格的方式對待子孫後代，體現了強烈的道德責任感。尊老愛幼的傳統在現代社會得以發揚光大。現在，中國的老人和兒童都有法定的假期—老人節(EldersDay)和兒童節。除此之外，政府還頒布特定的法律保護婦女兒童，法律也明確規定中國公民有義務贍養父母、撫養子女。

參考譯文

It is a fine tradition in China to respect the old and love the young.As early as the Han Dynasty, the government issued laws many times to advocate and reward behavior relating to treating the old with respect.The Chinese people treat their offspring with love and education, with kindness and strictness, embodying a strong sense of moral responsibility.The tradition of respecting the old and taking care of the young has been carried forward in modern times.At present, the old and the young in China have their own legal holidays—Elders Day and Childrens Day.Besides, the government has issued specific laws to protect women and children; and some laws also stipulate in explicit terms that Chinese citizens have obligations to take care of parents and raise children.

4中華傳統美德「助人為樂」

助人為樂，是中華民族優良傳統之一。通過「助人」，既向別人提供了幫助，又體現了一種自尊。幫助他人要擯棄私心雜念，不能處處為個人利益著想。遇事要多替別人考慮，主動伸手幫助那些需要幫助的人。做到助人為樂，要偷快面對生活，不能自尋煩惱。在幫助別人的同時，自己收穫快樂，享受生活的樂趣。做到助人為樂，要積極行動起來，不能只說不做。要腳踏實地(be down-to-earth),熱情周到地為他人服務，哪怕是簡單的小事，也要從一點一滴做起。

參考譯文

Being ready to help others is one of the fine traditions of Chinese nation.By helping others，one not only offered help to others,but also expressed one kind of self-respect.To help others,one should give up selfishness and shouldnt consider his own interest all the time.Think more of others and initiatively give a hand to those that need help.To be ready to help others,one should live happily and avoid asking for trouble.When helping others, one can get happiness at the same time and enjoy the pleasure of life.To be ready to help others,one should take action actively instead of just saying it.Be down-to-earth, and offer service to others with passion.Even for the simple things,just start doing them bit by bit.

5中國茶文化

中國是一個文化歷史悠久的(time-honored)國度，也是一個禮儀(ceremony anddecorum)之邦。每當客人來訪，都需要泡茶給客人喝。在給客人奉茶之前，你應該問問他們都喜歡喝什麼類型的茶，並採用最合適的茶具奉上。奉茶期間，主人需要仔細留意客人的茶杯里的茶量。通常，若是用茶杯泡的茶，在茶喝完一半之後就應該加開水，這樣，茶杯就一直都是滿的，茶的芳香(bouquet)也得以保留。

參考譯文

China is a country with a time-honored civilization and also a land of ceremony and decorum．Whenever guests visit, it is necessary to make and serve tea to them．Before serving tea, you may ask them for their preferences as to what kind of tea they fancy, and serve them the tea in the most appropriate teacups．In the course of serving tea, the host should take careful note of how much water remains in the guests』cups．Usually, if the tea is made in a teacup,boiling water should be added into the cup when half of the tea in it has been consumed; and thus the cup is kept filled and the tea retains the same bouquet．

6筷子

筷子(chopsticks)是中國古人發明的一種具有鮮明民族特色的進食工具(tableware)，是反映中國飲食文化特色的重要組成部分。中國人使用筷子的歷史可追溯到商代，距今已有三千多年。筷子可謂是中國國粹，既輕巧又靈活，在世界各國餐具中獨樹一幟，被西方人譽為「東方的文明」。凡是使用過筷子的人，不論中國人或是外國人，都因其使用方便、物美價廉而讚歎不絕。

參考譯文

Chopsticks, invented by ancient Chinese people, are a kind of tableware with distinct national features, being an important component that reflects the characteristics of Chinese diet culture．The history of using chopsticks in China dates back to the Shang Dynasty, more than3,000 years ago．Chopsticks, the quintessence of Chinese culture, whose lightness and flexibility develop a school of its own among various tableware all over the world, are praised as "Eastern Civilization" by the westerners．All those people who have ever used chopsticks, no matter Chinese or foreigners, marvel at their convenience, excellent quality and reasonable price．
