【翻譯原文】
十二生肖(Twelve Chinese Zodiac Signs )是中國(guó)人習(xí)慣上用來表示出生年份的十二種動(dòng)物，即鼠、牛、虎、兔、龍、蛇、馬、羊、猴、雞、狗、豬。每十二年循壞一次，每年都與一個(gè)屬相對(duì)應(yīng)。長(zhǎng)期以來，人類與十二生肖有著一種特殊的關(guān)系。 據(jù)說這些動(dòng)物所代表的年份能影響人的性格，這和西方文化中的十二星座(constellation)類似。
【參考譯文】

They are Rat，Ox, Tiger，Rabbit，Dragon，Snake，Horse，Goat，Monkey，Rooster，Dog and Pig. It is based on a twelve-year cycle; each year in that cycle corresponds to an animal sign. For a long time there has been a special relationship between humans and the twelve zodiacal animals. It is believed that the year represented by the animal affects one’s character in the same manner as the constellation adopted by western culture.
【翻譯原文】
送禮在中國(guó)是種常見禮儀(etiquette)，人們借此表達(dá)對(duì)友誼、款待的感激或感謝。然而，中國(guó)送禮和收禮的禮節(jié)與其他文化大為不同。在很長(zhǎng)一段歷史時(shí)期里，當(dāng)朋友送禮物或款待自己時(shí)，有禮貌的人會(huì)回報(bào)朋友的關(guān)心和好意。他們會(huì)挑選一個(gè)合適的場(chǎng)合禮尚往來，因?yàn)樗麄冋J(rèn)為這對(duì)加深關(guān)系很重要。禮物的選擇取決于兩人的關(guān)系，這與世界上大多數(shù)文化都相同。
