2017年12月六級考試就要到來了，為了讓同學們更好準備四級考試，特別整理了《2017年12月英語六級翻譯練習：幸運數(shù)字》，希望可以為大家?guī)韼椭? 預(yù)祝大家高分通過考試。
幸運數(shù)字一直以來在中國的文化中扮演著重要的角色，在很多情況下是中國人需要考慮的因素。人們在挑選住宅樓層、電話號碼或車牌號的時候，往往選擇幸運數(shù)字。中國人認為偶數(shù)比奇數(shù)更加吉樣(propitious)，例如,“2”代表“和諧”,“6”代表“順利”。“8”則是中國人喜愛的數(shù)字，因為它與廣東話(Cantonese)中的“發(fā)”是同音，意味著繁榮、財富和地位。北京奧運會開幕式時間選擇在2008年8月8日晚8點，也不會是巧合吧。
參考翻譯:
Lucky numbers have always played an important rolein Chinese culture.They are considerations that needto be taken into account by the Chinese under lots ofcircumstances.When selecting apartmentfloors,phone numbers or license platenumbers,Chinese people tend to choose the lucky numbers.Chinese people think the evennumbers are more propitious than the odd numbers.For example,"2" represents"harmony",while "6" represents "smooth going".And the number "8" is the favorite numberfor the Chinese because the sound of "8" (ba) is identical to "fa" in Cantonese,which meansprosperity,wealth and status.The opening ceremony of Beijing Olympics started at 8 o'clockon August 8th, 2008,which could not have been a coincidence.
