Unit 1

传统上,中文里没有隐私这一概念。这是因为在中国，集体主义这一价值观受到高度赞扬。另一方面，中国人喜欢和家人住在一起，他们认为这样显示了和谐的人际关系。我们甚至看到在中国，不同的家庭住在一个大院子里。在这样的居住环境下是没有隐私可言的。因此，中国人觉得凡事不必隐藏。

Traditionally, there is no equivalent term for “privacy” in Chinese. This is because the value of collectivism is praised highly in China. On the other hand, Chinese people enjoy living together with their family members because it is a way to show harmonious human relationship. It is not strange for us to find that even people from different families share a big courtyard in China. With such arrangements, privacy would be hardly possible. So, Chinese people feel that nothing should be concealed.

Unit 2

中国人通常在屋子里挂灯笼过元宵(the Lantern Festival)。自制纸灯笼只需要彩色硬纸、剪刀和胶水(construction paper, scissors and glue)。首先，将一张长方形的(rectangular) 纸对折，从对折线往开口处，每隔4厘米就剪开一直线。每次不要剪到底，留边约2厘米。然后打开硬纸，将纸卷成圆筒状(cylinder)，接着在两条短边上涂好胶水后把它们黏在一起。最后，剪下长12厘米、宽1厘米的一硬纸条做灯笼柄，并把剪好的纸条黏在灯笼上端的内沿上。Chinese people always celebrate the Lantern Festival by hanging up Chinese lanterns in the house. Construction paper, scissors and glue are all things you need for DIY of a paper lantern. First, fold a rectangular piece of paper in half, and cut along the folded edge every 4 cm. Don’t cut all the way to the edge of the paper, leaving about 2 cm at the top of each cut. Next, unfold the paper, and roll it into a cylinder. Then apply glue along the short edges and press the paper together. Last, make the handle of the lantern by cutting a strip of construction paper 12 cm long and 1 cm wide, and glue the strip cut-out to the inside edges of the lantern’s top margin.

在中国，婚礼习俗各地不同，但也有共同点。在过去，举行婚礼前，新娘会由一位当地德高望重的老年妇女为她用彩色的棉绳扎头发。新娘要穿红裙子，因为中国人认为红色喜庆。新郎也要穿红褂子（be in red gown）。他们要拜（kowtow）天地，父母和夫妻对拜。在有的地方，婚礼的当晚亲戚朋友们会闹洞房（play games in the bridal chamber）。婚后的第三天，新婚夫妇要回新娘的娘家，和亲戚们聚餐。

In China, marriage customs differ by regions, but there are something in common. In the past, before the wedding ceremony, the bride would be helped by a respectable old woman to tie up her hair with colorful cotton threads. She should wear a red skirt as Chinese believed red is the symbol of delight. The bridegroom was also in a red gown. They should kowtow to worship the

heaven, parents and each other. On the night of the wedding day, there was a custom in some places —relatives or friends playing games in the bridal chamber. On the third day of the marriage, the new couple would go back to the bride’s parents’home. They would be received with a dinner party including relatives.

中国中小学生的想象力和创造力相当贫乏。经过对21个国家的调查，中国儿童计算能力排名第一，而想象力排在最后，创造力排名倒数第五。对此，专家们建议通过立法加强中国中小学生的“想象力教育”。儿童缺乏想象力是一个关乎中国科学界命运的问题。中国的考试制度严重制约了学生的想象力和创造力，中国的教育体制的改革应该从解放儿童的好奇心开始。

China’s primary and middle school students’imagination and creative ability are quite poor. In a survey of 21 countries, the counting ability of Chinese children ranked No.1, while imagination ranked at the bottom and creative ability ranked fifth from the bottom. Regarding this, experts suggest strengthening “imagination-oriented education”for China’s primary and middle school students through legislation. The lack of imagination among Chinese children is a matter of concern for the scientific world. The examination system in China has severely restricted students’imagination and creativity, and the reform of China’s education system should start with the liberation of children’s curiosity.

Unit 5

自去年11月以来，中国的通货膨胀持续上扬。据NBS（国家数据局National Bureau of Statistics）表明，由于寒冬的影响，食品价格的上涨是推动一月份CPI上涨1.5%的主因。因为近年来人们的饮食和消费习惯发生了极大的改变，专家认为，为了更清晰实时地反映居民的生活总支出和经济压力的状况，CPI评估标准需要做出与实际情况相符的调整(modification) 。由于房屋支出占收入的比重越来越大，因此相应的调整似乎是有必要，同时，政策的制定者要正确解读CPI 及其他指标(metrics) 以判断经济运行的状况(economic performance) 。

China’s inflation has continued to rise since November last year. Its CPI rose 1.5 percent in January, mainly boosted by food price increases due to the cold winter weather, according to the NBS (National Bureau of Statistics). Since people’s eating and consumption habits have changed greatly in recent years, experts held that the criteria for evaluating CPI needed modification in

line with actual conditions to give a clearer and real-time picture of the general living costs and financial pressure of the citizens. Housing costs occupy an increasingly bigger share of incomes,

so corresponding modifications seem to be necessary, as policy-makers will read CPI and other metrics for judging economic performance.
