茶，这一美妙的饮品原产地在中国。四千多年前，中国人就开始有饮茶的

习惯了。唐代时，日本的僧人从中国引入茶种，与同时引入的禅宗思想相结合，

形成了闻名世界的日本茶道。17世纪时，荷兰人将中国人饮茶的习惯带到欧洲，

进而形成了欧洲人喝茶的传统。尤其在英国，下午茶的习俗由此而生。在19世

纪之前，世界各地饮用的茶叶都来自中国。茶，是中国人对世界的重要贡献。

Tea is a wonderful beverage originally produced in China 4000 years ago.

During the Tang Dynasty, Japanese monks introduced tea seeds to Japan, and by

combining tea with Zen Buddhism, created the world famous tea ceremony. In

the 17

th

century, the Dutch took to Europe the Chinese habit of tea-drinking,

which then become a tradition of the Europeans. In England in particular,

people developed the custom of afternoon tea. Prior to the 19

th

century, all the

tea in the world was grown in China. Tea is an important contribution of the

Chinese people to the world.

《老子》虽然简短，但它在中国文化发展中的作用却很大。以它为基础，中

国古代产生了与儒家并列的哲学派别道家。根据它的思想，中国古代产生了以

老子为始祖的宗教派别道教，这是华夏民族本土产生的最具影响的宗教。《老子》

的思想直接影响了中国人的民族特性、思维倾向和审美趣味。直到今天，《老子》

还在参与塑造这个民族的思想。

Short as it is, Laozi has played a tremendous role in the development of

Chinese culture. It became the basis of Daoism, the school of philosophy parallel

to Confucianism in ancient China. The thought of Laozi formed the foundation

of Daoism, the most influential indigenous school of religion in China. It has also

exerted a direct impact on the characteristics, trends of thought and aesthetic

sensibilities of the Chinese nation. Today, Laozi still plays a role in the

development of Chinese thinking.

中国的传统节庆膳食是节日必不可少的伴侣，例如，我国的端午节是纪念

古代诗人屈原的日子，那一天，人们通常要赛龙舟，吃粽子。中秋节是观赏满

月的日子圆圆的月亮象征着圆满，象征着家庭团聚。因此，中秋节的特制食品

是一种圆形的月饼。春节是中国的农历新年，除了常见的家禽和肉类之外，人

们还要按各自的地方习俗烹制传统食物，如饺子和年糕。

Traditional Chinese holiday meals is indispensable on some festivals. For

example, the Dragon Boat Festival is a day established in memory of the ancient

poet Qu Yuan and people usually hold dragon boat races, and eat zongzi on that

day. The Mid Autumn Festival is an occasion for viewing the full moon. The

round moon is a symbol for completeness, and a symbol of family reunion. The

special food of the day is yubing, a round cake known as moon cake. The Spring

Festival is the Chinese Lunar New Year. Besides the popular poultry and meat,

people cook traditional food according to regional customs, such as jiaozi and

niangao.

筷子是中餐桌上最有特色的用餐工具。我们中国人使用筷子的方法很有艺

术性，个人有个人的方法，就好像签名一样，不尽一致。对于那些用餐时只会

用刀叉的西方人来说，掌握用筷子的方法和技巧开始时难度也许很大，但也很

有趣，需要很大的耐心，需要用心练习。如果他们希望享用一顿真正的中餐的

话，那么花时间耐心学习用筷艺术不仅很有必要，也很有收益。

Chopsticks, or kuaizi, are the most distinctive eating tool at the Chinese

dining table。The way Chinese handle our chopsticks is quite artistic and varied

from person to person like one's signature. For those Westerners who use only

forks and knives for their meals, the mastery of the method and skills for using

chopsticks may be quite challenging, and amusing, at the beginning. A lot of

patience and concentrated practice is required. This is not only very necessary

and but also very rewarding if they wish to enjoy a real Chinese dinner.

说起中国古代文明，人们都熟知“四大发明”——造纸，火药、指南针、印

刷术，它们对于世界文化、军事、交通等发展起着无可估量的作用，实际上中

华民族对世界文明的杰出贡献远不只是“四大发明”。 罗伯特·坦普尔在他所著的

《中国科学技术史》这部宏篇巨著中写道：“今日的技术世界是东西方文明相结

合的产物。” 他呼吁，现在是承认和尊重中国贡献的时候了！

Speaking of ancient Chinese civilization, we think of the "Four Great

Inventions" —paper, gunpowder, the compass, and printing, which have had an

immeasurable impact on the development of world culture, military affairs,

transportation and communications. Actually, the most outstanding

contributions made by the Chinese nation to the world civilization are by no

means limited only to the "four great inventions." In his great book—"History of

Science and Technology of China", Robert Temple wrote: “Today's technology is

the combination of Eastern and Western civilizations and it is now the time to

recognize and respect China's contribution to the world.”

在中国文化的百花园中，风筝是颇具中国民族特色的手工艺术之一，放风

筝则是中国民间极为流行的一种游乐民俗。伴随着放风筝风俗的盛行，在一些

经济相对繁荣、手工艺人相对集中的城市，逐渐出现了一批以制作、销售风筝

为业的风筝铺，其中尤其以山东潍坊最为著名。风筝在世界科技文化中具有重

要的地位。大约从唐代以后，中国风筝流传到朝鲜、日本、马来西亚等地，然

后又流传到欧美等地。

Of all the art forms in the Chinese culture, kites are one of the well-known

handcraft arts, beaming with national characteristics, and kite-flying has become

a favorite pastime among the people. With the growing popularity of kite-flying

in China, in cities which enjoy a considerable level of economic prosperity and a

large contingent of artisans and craftsmen, there have sprung up a number of

shops specializing in the making and selling of kites. Of all the cities, Weifang in

Shangdong province is the best known. Chinese kites occupy a very important

position in the world history of science and culture. It is believed that Chinese

kites were introduced to Korea, Japan, Malaysia and some other countries after

the Tang Dynasty.

蹴鞠(Cuju)是中国古代的一项球类运动。它是竞技运动，要把球踢进球网内。

该运动是为了训练士兵而发明的。在汉代(the Han Dynasty)，从军队到皇室，乃

至贵族阶层，蹴鞠都很盛行。由于社会经济的发展，蹴鞠在宋代(the Song Dynasty)

甚至风靡社会各阶层。当时，职业蹴鞠球员十分普遍。这些球员分为两类：一

类是由皇室训练并为皇室表演，而另一类则由靠蹴鞠谋生的平民百姓组成。

Cuju is an ancient Chinese ball game. It is a competitive game that involves

kicking a ball through an opening into a net. The game was invented for military

training purposes. During the Han Dynasty, the popularity of Cuju spread from

the army to the royal courts and upper classes. Due to social and economic

development, the sport even extended its popularity to every class in society

during the Song Dynasty. At that time, professional Cuju players were quite

popular. These players fell into two groups. One was trained by and performed

for the royal court and the other consisted of civilians who made a living as Cuju

players.

大型电视系列纪录片《舌尖上的中国》（A Bite of China）自2012年开播以

来反响巨大。纪录片在描述食物取材时，巧妙地融入人们的故事。当然，当影

片过多地刻画人物而不是介绍美食时，也会引起观众的抱怨。但这丝毫不影响

《舌尖上的中国》在中国的成功，还激起人们对食物的狂热。在纪录片播出后

不久，片中出现的食材，其销量就直线飙升。

The hugely popular documentary series A Bite of China has been such a

surprise hit since first appearing on our TV screens in 2012. Its main ingredient

is the clever interweaving of human stories with the preparation of food. There

were even some complaints when human characters took up more screen time

than the dishes. But still, the runaway success of this well-made TV recipe has

whipped up a food frenzy. Items featured on the show have seen their sales

skyrocket within a short time of being aired.

中医(Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) )起源于6,000多年前的神农氏时

代。神农这位著名的中国古代药王所生活的时代被认为是中医史上的萌芽阶段。

中医学在长期的发展过程中，逐渐形成了一整套医学原则和观点。首先，中医

认为“万物人为贵”。中医将“救死扶伤”视为职业道德规范。第二，中医重视无

病防病，强调以食补来延缓衰老，减少疾病。第三，中医理论认为，社会环境

与自然环境相互作用，互为依存，人的身心也是一种相互作用、互为依存的关

系。

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) originated from Shennong, the famous

king of medicine in ancient China who lived about 6,000 years ago. The time

Shennong lived is considered to be the embryo stage of the development of TCM.

During its long process of development, TCM has gradually developed a set of

medical principles and concepts. First, it believes that “nothing is more

important than a human life”. It regards “healing the wounded and rescuing the

dying” as its professional ethics. Second, it pays attention to the early prevention

of diseases, advocating the food treatment to defer senility and reduce diseases.

Third, in the TCM theory, the relationship between social and natural

environment, as well as the relationship between human body and spirit, is of

mutual influence and interdependence.

网上购物作为一种新的购物方式，近年来在国内被广泛接受，尤其是在年

轻人中流行开来。2006年以来，中国网上购物增长速度迅猛。网上购物的特点

是购物方式新颖、便捷以及价格较低等。它具有传统购物所没有的很多优势，

在一定程度上弥补了传统购物的很多不足。但是，网民在网上购物的同时，也

面临着种种问题，比如产品质量不合格、隐私权不好保护、容易被诈骗等。其

中，安全性问题是阻碍网上购物发展的最大问题。

As a new way of shopping, online shopping has been widely accepted in the

country in recent years, especially among young people. Since 2006, online

shopping has experienced a rapid growth in China. Online shopping is

characterized by its modern way of shopping, convenience and inexpensiveness,

etc. It has many advantages that the traditional one doesn’t have, which, to some

extent, make up for those shortcomings of traditional shopping. However, while

shopping online, net citizens are also faced with various problems, such as low

quality of commodities, poor protection of privacy, and easily being cheated, etc.

Among them, the security issues are the biggest problems that have hindered the

development of online shopping.
