An E-mail about the Stories on BBC World
Dear Editor,
I read the stories on BBC World Have Your Say today. I am interested in Mike's story, because I had the same experience when I traveled in Guangzhou. I can't stand bad manners in public, either. In fact, I really get angry when people jump the queue and smoke in non-smoking areas. I think it's wrong to break the rules in public. In my opinion, we should know more about good manners.
On the other hand, we had better stop people around us from being rude. If we can't stop them, we can always ask the police or someone like that for help.
Yours,
Li Ming

译文
一封关于BBC故事的电子邮件
亲爱的编辑:
今天我读BBC World Have Your Say栏目的故事。我对迈克的故事很感兴趣, 因为我在广州旅游时, 我有同样的经历。我也不能忍受在公共场所的不文明行为。实际上, 当人们插队和在禁止吸烟的地方吸烟时, 我确实很生气。我认为破坏公共秩序是不对的。依我看, 我们应该了解更多好的行为方式。
另一方面, 我们最好阻止我们周围人们的粗鲁行为。如果我们阻止不了他们, 我们可以向警察之类的人求助。

Over the past two years, China has introduced a large number of foreign movies. However, this neither has brought us high entertainment, nor helped our national movie industry flourish.
Most of the imported movies, despite the large amount of money invested in them, do not live up to people's expectations. Often they fall into rigid formulas and simple plots. What is worse, with so many foreign movies flowing into China, the national movie industry is faced with a difficult situation.
点评
作者就外国电影对我国观众及电影业的影响陈述了看法, 并提出了自己的建议。文章说理透彻, 条理清晰。文中despite the large amount of money invested in them 中invested是过去分词作定语, 与movies是被动关系。
译文
在过去的两年多时间里, 中国引进了一大批外国影片。可是, 这既没有带给我们高品质的娱乐, 也没有帮助我国电影业繁荣, 花去巨额投资, 引进的大部分影片常常不能满足人们的期望。影片大都是固定不变的模式和简单的情节;更糟的是, 随着大批外国影片涌入中国, 国内电影面临困境。
∗∗∗∗∗
Some of us think that it is better to see the film than to read the book in the original. The reason is that it takes less time to understand the whole story. Besides, the film is usually more interesting, and it is easier to follow.

TV plays an important part in our daily life nowadays. It tells us news at home and abroad and it brings us much pleasure. We can spend our spare time happily with TV. For example, cartoons are great fun to children. They can also learn a lot from TV programs.
On the other hand, TV sometimes has a bad effect on students. First, watching too much TV does great harm to their health, especially to their eyes. Second, if children spend too much time on TV, they will certainly spend less time on reading. Besides, some programs are not suitable for children. They will perhaps lead children to the wrong way.
点评

译文
电视在现代社会生活中扮演着重要的角色。我们足不出户便可知天下事, 它还带给我们很多乐趣。我们可以看电视来度过我们的空闲时间。例如, 动画片给孩子们带来很大乐趣, 他们从中可以学到很多东西。
另一方面, 电视对学生也有负面影响。首先, 长时间看电视对身体健康有害, 尤其是眼睛。其次, 如果孩子们长时间看电视, 他们花在阅读上时间就少了。还有一些节目不适合孩子们观看, 它们也许会错误地引导孩子。
∗∗∗∗∗
I'm sorry to tell you that I can't follow you easily sometimes because you speak a little bit fast. It's also a pity that we can only watch your program twice a week.
Thank you for giving a lot of fun!I wish your program a bright future!
点评
本段写这个英语栏目的不足, 最后写对它表示感谢和祝愿。语言通顺、流畅。文中“I'm sorry to tell you that I can't follow you easily sometimes because you speak a little bit fast. ”中有that引导的宾语从句, because引导的原因状语从句, “It's also a pity that we can only watch your program twice a week. ”中有that引导的主语从句, 这些句子的正确运用, 为文章增色不少。
译文
我很抱歉地告诉你, 因为你的语速有点儿快, 所以有时我不容易听懂。另一件遗憾的事是你们的节目一周只播放两次。
谢谢你带给我们这么多快乐, 我希望你的节目有一个灿烂的未来!

Look at the statue. The man stands for the old generation in China. He is wearing old-fashioned clothes that date back to the beginning of the twentieth century. He is looking at the laptop, doesn't know what it is. The girl, on the other hand, is different:she has long hair and wears a fashionable short skirt. She plays with the laptop skillfully. The striking differences between the two show rapid changes in people's life in China.
点评
本段根据所给雕塑图片展开联想, 两种人物形象进行对比。结尾句呼应首句, 写出主题:中国的飞速变化。想象合理, 中心明确。
译文
看这个雕塑。那个男人代表中国的老一辈人。身穿20世纪初中国人的衣服, 看着那台笔记本电脑, 不知道它是什么东西。而旁边的那位姑娘与他不同, 她身穿时尚的短裙、披着长发, 熟练地操作着笔记本电脑, 这种不同的形象对比反映出中国人民的生活发生了飞速的变化。
