Then mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET. Ⅲ.English to Chinese TranslationDirections: In this part, there is an English passage. You are required to translate the underlined paragraph into Chinese. Write your translation on the ANSWER SHEET.1. The San Su Shrine was the former Su family residence during the Northern Song Dynasty. In their days, three famous writers, Su Xun, Su Shi and Su Zhe—a father and his two sons—demonstrated the importance of education and culture in development, as well as the duty that literati had toward their country.
Su Shi was the shining star among the trio. As a poet, calligrapher, statesman and gourmet, he is a household name in China. More importantly, his righteousness, honesty and optimism in the face of challenges have inspired people for generations.
From a young age, Su Shi made strict demands on himself with regard to study, and it was this good habit that benefited him all his life and enabled him to achieve a place in the literary field. It was not only in the literary field that Su Shi was highly praised, but as a government official he also received the love and support of ordinary people. However, Su Shi's life was not always smooth. He was exiled three times throughout his life. Despite that, he was optimistic all the time.
苏轼从小就对自己的学习要求严格,而正是这种良好的习惯使他终身受益,并使他能够在文坛占有一席之地。苏轼不仅在文学领域受到高度赞扬,而且作为一名政府官员,他也受到了普通百姓的爱戴和支持。然而,苏轼的生活并不总是一帆风顺的。他一生中被流放了三次。尽管如此,他一直都很乐观。

[范文]Dear Peter,
I am extremely delighted to know that you have an interest in the "Labor Week" held by our school last week. Here is something about it.
The "Labor Week" was aimed at calling on students to raise the awareness of labor and environmental protection, and almost every student took an active part in it. First of all, we cleaned every corner of the school thoroughly and put up posters about protecting the environment on the wall. Also, we put garbage sorting bins on our campus, which is of great significance for the recycling of energy.
Through this activity, we understand that labor can not only promote our physical and mental health, but also make our life more beautiful.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
