注意：此部分试题请在答题卡2上作答。

1.传统民间艺术形式：traditional folk art，其中folk“民间的，民俗的”一词在新题型中反复出现的概率非常大。art已经可以完整表达“艺术形式”这四个中文，不必加form.

2.在明清时期特别流行：widespread particularly during the Ming and Qing Dynasties，其中“流行“可能更容易想到It's very popular…，但是过分简单，因此单词的paraphrase和polish是翻译中要特别注意的。

3.美化居家环境：“美化”译为beautify，“居家环境”翻译成their homes，组合成beautify their homes或者make their homesmore beautiful.不要逐字逐句生硬翻译，如home environment/situation等。

4.增加喜庆的气氛：enhance the joyous atmosphere.增加用enhance非常精彩，“喜庆的”想不到joyous，还可以有festive甚至happy来替换。

5.象征健康和兴旺：which symbolizes health and prosperity，除了用非限制性定语从句外，还可以非谓语symbolizing health and prosperity来连接两部分内容。“兴旺”想不到prosperity，用blossom/thrive或者flourishing均可。

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（the Dragon Boat Festival）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（zongzi）。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（The Mid-autumn Festival）的特制食品是一种圆形的月饼。春节是中国的农历新年（the Chinese lunar New Year's holiday），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。

1.中国传统节庆膳食：翻译为Traditional Chinese holiday meals，其中“节庆膳食”直接译为holiday meals，即可，翻译时注意“中国的”和“传统”的顺序。

2.纪念：翻译为介词短语in memory of，修饰前面的a day.

3.赛龙舟：翻译为hold dragon boat races，其中hold意为“举行”，“举行龙舟比赛”即“赛龙舟”。

4.观赏满月：“满月”即fullmoon，此处的“观赏”可以译为viewing，也可以用enjoying或watching表示。

5.象征着家庭团聚：“象征”翻译为系表结构is a symbol for，也可以用动词symbolize表示，“家庭团聚”翻译：为family reunion即可。
