Directions: Listen to the passage and fill in the blanksPeople about whether Lu Yan, a very

successful Chinese model now based in Paris, is a beauty or not. The critics have that traditionally Chinese appreciate big eyes, small nose and petite in beauties, while Lu Yan, with her rough and a 5-foot-10 height, has got none of them. The admirers, however, have argued that the essence of ancient Chinese beauty with a touch of modern spirit, Lu Yan represents a modern image of Chinese beauty.


Lu Yan had grown up in a small town in Jiangxi, central China, as a very plain and lively girl until modeling became a popular career in China in the 1990s. She joined a modeling competition in Beijing and was at once noticed as an extraordinary beauty by a fashion editor. With her looks and recognized as an ideal for representing the 21st century Chinese woman, Lu Yan soon became a popular model in China. And since her recent meeting with a pair of modeling experts from Paris in a Beijing hotel, Lu Yan has now enjoyed the of world class fashion bigwigs like Christian Dior, Gucci and Christian Lacroix.

Translation Skills: Adding words

英汉两种语言各有其自身特点和规律，在表达

方式、词语搭配等方面有很大差别，因此翻译不能死扣原文的字面结构或者追求字字相符，在译文里增加原文字面没有而意思上有的词语。


eg: 1) I am looking forward to the holidays. 我正期待着假期的到来。

2) What if he would fail! 万一他失败了，怎么办？

3) The molecules get closer and closer with the pressure.

随着压力增加，分子相距越来越近。

1) 许多电视节目很优秀，把精彩的表演送进千家万户。2）你过去是、现在是、将来仍然是我的朋友。3）近年来，西方一些国家的人不断从城市迁往郊区。4）他们谈到他们渴望的东西—谈到肉、谈到热汤，谈到厚

厚的黄油。5）这男孩个子不高，但很聪明。


Writing Guidance---Improving Your Sentences

What is a good sentence? Make sure that your sentences answer the following

questions, otherwise it is not a complete sentence. What happened? Who or what did it? eg: 1) The musicians in the park. ( It’s only part of se

ntence, is a fragment.) The musicians sang in the park The musicians in the park played our favorite songs. 2) Swam in the pool. Kristen swam in the pool. The seals at the zoo swam in the pool.


Ex. 10: Change the following fragments into correct sentences.

He talked for fifty minutes without taking his eyes off his notes. Apparently he did not notice that half class was asleep.

My brother enjoys ice cream, especially when he is relaxing on a hot summer day.

Since my arrival, I visited some famous tourist spots.

It’s necessary to improve your English pronunciation and intonation.

The Miss World Organization

The Miss World Organization has raised over $50 million for Children Charities（慈善团体） throughout the world. Among the many recipients （受益人） are the Nelson Mandela Trust（基金） , world wide children charities and Variety Clubs International. All this money has been collected through the theme of Beauty with a Purpose started by Julia Morley over 24 years ago. To this day, the Miss World Organization is the only International Contest to have adopted such a theme. Apart from the commercial work and personal


appearances which Miss World is contracted to undertake in each country visited, time is always set aside to allow each country a chance to hold a special function attended by Miss World. For example, a Miss World Fashion Show, luncheon （午宴） or any other similar event which involves Miss World. All money raised from ticket sales, raffles （抽奖） , or donations, etc. are entirely donated to the underprivileged and handicapped children of that country.
