Reading and Thinking

阅读与思考
2 Read the text quickly to find the main idea of each paragraph.

2 快速阅读课文，找出每段的主旨大意。
THE CHINESE WRITING SYSTEM: CONNECTING THE PAST AND THE PRESENT

汉字书写体系：连接过去与现在
China is widely known for its ancient civilisation which has continued all the way through into modern times, despite the many ups and downs in its history.

尽管历史跌宕起伏，中国因其古代文明一直延续至今而闻名于世。
There are many reasons why this has been possible, but one of the main factors has been the Chinese writing system.

其存续的原因颇多，但主要因素之一是汉字的书写体系。
At the beginning, written Chinese was a picture-based language.

汉字在最初是一种基于图形的语言。
It dates back several thousand years to the use of <i>longgu</i>—animal bones and shells on which symbols were carved by ancient Chinese people.

它可以追溯到数千年前使用龙骨的时期——古代中国人在这些骨头和壳上面刻画简单的符号。
Some of the ancient symbols can still be seen in today's <i>hanzi</i>.

这些符号在今天的汉字中仍可看到。
By the Shang Dynasty (around 1600—1046 BCE), these symbols had become a well-developed writing system.

到商朝（约公元前 1600 年——前 1046 年）时，这些符号已经演变成一套成熟的书写体系。
Over the years, the system developed into different forms, as it was a time when people were divided geographically, leading to many varieties of dialects and characters.

在随后的年代里，这一体系发展成不同的形式，这是由于当时中国人居住地域的分隔，从而导致不同方言和汉字变体的产生。
This, however, changed under Emperor Qinshihuang of the Qin Dynasty (221—207 BCE).

然而，这在秦朝（公元前 221 年——前 207 年）秦始皇统治时期发生了变化。
Emperor Qinshihuang united the seven major states into one unified country where the Chinese writing system began to develop in one direction.

秦始皇统一七个诸侯国后，在这个统一的国家里，汉字开始朝着一个方向发展。
That writing system was of great importance in uniting the Chinese people and culture.

这个书写体系对于中国人民与中国文化的统一具有非凡的意义。
Even today, no matter where Chinese people live or what dialect they speak, they can all still communicate in writing.

即使在今天，不论住在哪里，也不论说何种方言，中国人仍然能通过书写（汉字）进行交流。
Written Chinese has also become an important means by which China's present is connected with its past.

汉字也成为连接中国现在与过去的一个重要媒介。
People in modern times can read the classic works which were written by Chinese in ancient times.

现代中国人可以阅读古代中国人撰写的经典作品。
The high regard for the Chinese writing system can be seen in the development of Chinese characters as an art form, known as Chinese calligraphy, which has become an important part of Chinese culture.

中国人对其书写体系推崇备至，这体现在汉字发展为一种艺术形式——书法，书法已经成为中国文化的一个重要组成部分。
Today, the Chinese writing system is still an important part of Chinese culture.

今天，汉字仍然是中国文化的一个重要组成部分。
As China plays a greater role in global affairs, an increasing number of international students are beginning to appreciate China's culture and history through this amazing language.

随着中国在全球事务中扮演着更为重要的角色，越来越多的国际学生开始通过汉语这一奇妙的语言了解和欣赏中国的文化和历史。

Listening part 1

听力第 1 部分
As many countries speak English as a first language, there are many different kinds of English around the world:

许多国家以英语为第一语言，因此世界各地存在多种不同的英语变体：
British English, American English, Australian English, and many others.

英式英语、美式英语、澳式英语以及其他众多变体。
Some English learners might ask, 'Can English speakers from different countries all understand each other?'

有些英语学习者可能会问：“不同国家的英语使用者能互相理解吗？”
The answer is yes.

答案是肯定的。
People in these countries can usually understand each other with very few problems.

这些国家的人们通常能轻松交流。
There are differences in vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar, but those are usually not big problems.

尽管在词汇、发音和语法方面存在差异，但这些差异通常不会造成太大障碍。
However, those differences can cause confusion for non-native English speakers.

然而，这些差异可能给非母语英语使用者带来困惑。
For example, a student who has learnt British English might not be familiar with the different vocabulary that an American might use.

例如，学习英式英语的学生可能不熟悉美式英语中使用的某些词汇。
Listen to this conversation between a foreign language student and her American classmate.

听以下这段外语学生和她美国同学的对话。

Learning English

学习英语
Hey, everybody, what are your biggest problems with learning English?

嗨，大家好，请问你们在学习英语时遇到的最大问题是什么？
Hi! I've been studying English since primary school.

你好！我从小学就一直在学英语。
I used to get high marks in English, but now I'm having a lot of trouble with my listening.

以前我的英语成绩还挺好的，但是现在我的听力有很大的麻烦。
When I listen to native English speakers talking in a video, I can catch only a few words.

我在视频中听母语是英语的人说话时，只能听懂几个单词。
I can never quite get the main idea.

我从来就没能完全搞懂过大意。
Any advice?

有什么建议吗？
Listening to English radio programmes helps me get used to how fast native speakers talk.

收听英语广播节目帮助我习惯母语人士的语速。
I also repeat what I hear to help myself to experience the feeling of the language.

我还会复述听到的内容，以此来培养语感。
Sometimes I even record my voice so I can listen to myself and compare my pronunciation with the radio host's!

有时候，我甚至还给自己录音，那样一来，我可以听自己的发音，并把我的发音与广播主持人的进行比较！
My biggest headache is how to be polite in English.

我最头痛的问题是如何用英语得体地表达。
It's so much easier to just say 'Open the window!', but in English that can sound really terrible.

说“打开窗户！”很容易，可是在英语里，这样说听起来感觉很糟糕。
I have to think about who I'm talking to and then decide whether to say, 'Open the window, please!'

我得考虑到我在跟谁说话，然后再决定是说“请打开窗户！”
or 'Could you open the window, please?'

还是“请你打开窗户，好吗？”
or even longer 'Would you mind opening the window, please?'

或者说句更长的“请问，您介意打开窗户吗？”
Yeah, that's really hard!

是啊，这真的很难！
I think it all depends on who you're talking to.

我觉得这完全取决于你在跟谁说话。
If I'm talking to a close friend, I can use short requests, like 'Open the window'—our relationship is close and we're equals, so I only need a few words to bridge the gap between us.

如果我是跟一个亲密的朋友说话，我可以用简短的请求，如“打开窗户”——这是因为我们关系密切，彼此平等，所以我只需要说几个字就能让对方明白我的意思。
But if I'm talking to someone who isn't very close to me, I must make my request longer—and I must make it a question, not a demand, e.g., 'Could you open the window, please?'

但是，如果我是跟不太亲近的人说话，那么我就得把我的请求说得长一些——我得把它变成一个疑问句，而不是一个要求，例如：“麻烦你打开窗户，好吗？”
If I'm talking to someone senior to me, then I should say, 'Would you mind opening the window, please?'

如果我是在跟一个辈分或职位比我高的人说话，那么我得说：“请问，您是否介意打开窗户呢？”
For me, vocabulary is my biggest problem—there are just SO MANY new words!

对我来说，词汇是最大的问题——生词太多了！
I can't keep all the new vocabulary straight in my head, and I certainly can't remember how to use them all properly. HELP!

我无法在脑子里记住所有的生词，当然也就记不住如何恰当地使用这些词汇。帮帮我吧！
