段落翻译 (原文+译文） 1. 参与并取胜，这就是奥林匹克精神。他表现于弱者敢于向强者挑战，也表现于强者力争取得更好的成绩。胜而又胜，优而更优，这种理想一直鼓舞着运动员奋力前进。他会尽其所能，争取优胜，永不松懈，永不罢休。有人说竞技者终究逃脱不了失败，即使是最佳运动员也会被更强者所淘汰——这就是竞技运动的规律。然而运动员却从不为这种不可避免的失败而气馁，仍然奋力拼搏争取最佳发挥。并对自己在奥林匹克运动中为争取更好成绩已尽了一份力而心满意足。他会自豪地说他的青春没有虚度。（221字） 【参考译文】 To participate and win — that is the Olympic spirit. It finds expression in the weak daring to defy the strong, and the strong striving for ever better performance. “Ever better” — the ideal is always luring a sportsman forward. He will do everything he can for it, never relax, never give up. It is said that none of the competitors can avoid being defeated — even the best is to be surpassed by someone still stronger. This is rule of sports. However, undaunted by the inevitable failure, the sportsman is always striving to do the best he can and content with the fact that he has done his bit for the “ever better” records in the Olympic Games. He will say proudly that he has not lived his youth in vain. 2. 中国，一个值得自豪的文明古国，大约有5000年悠久和神秘的历史。像世界上其它大多数文明一样，中国历史可以溯源到最初的原始部落，后来逐步融合扩大，直至成为今天伟大的国家。  中国社会的发展经历了五个主要阶段——原始社会，奴隶社会，封建社会，半殖民地半封建社会和社会主义社会。几乎从一开始，伟大朝代的兴衰就贯穿了整个中国历史。1949年10月1日中华人民共和国成立以来，中国已经成为一个社会主义国家，越来越强盛。（198字）【参考译文】 China, one of the countries that can boast of an ancient civilization, has a long and mysterious history—almost 5,000 years of it! Like most other great civilizations of the world, China can trace her culture back to a blend of small original tribes which have expanded till they become the great country we have today.  Chinese society has progressed through five major stages—Primitive Society, Slave Society, Feudal Society, Semi-feudal and Semi-colonial Society, and Socialist Society. The rise and fall of the great dynasties forms a thread that runs through Chinese history, almost from the beginning. Since the founding of the Peoples Republic of China on October 1st, 1949, China has become a socialist country and become stronger and stronger. 3. 在指南针发明以前，人们在茫茫大海上航行，只能靠太阳和星星的位置辩认方向，如果
