12、points)Translate the following passage into English.中国为种类繁多的菜肴感到十分自豪。饮食是中国文化的一大要素。中国共有 8 大菜系，包括辛辣的川菜与清淡的粤菜。中国餐馆在 世界各地很受欢迎。然而，中国人的生活方式日益变化，无论是自己下厨还是上餐 馆，都出现了全新的饮食习惯。在一些传统的中国菜中，添加了奶酪 与番茄酱。城市消费者频繁地光顾一些快餐连锁店，包括麦当劳、肯 德基与必胜客。市场调查显示，在未来几年里，西式快餐的消费在中 国将以每年超过 45%的速度持续增长，而中式快餐店有望增加 15%。 收入的不断增长，对国际食品更多的了解，加上超

14、岸正在崩溃，离房屋与取暖用油的油 罐越来越近，后撤的速度是每年 18 英尺，即 5-6 米。每年夏季，冰继续融化，最后家园将会消失，整个毕考夫斯基村可能也将不复存在。“几乎到处是冰永冻土现在却在融化。 ”生活在北极圈 以北的 400 万俄罗斯人在许多方面感受到气候变暧的影响。气候变化 带来新的机遇，但同时也威胁着他们的环境，烕胁着他们家园的稳 定，对那些以冰雪荒原为其传统之根基的人来说，也威胁着他们文化的生存。开发北方的步伐因北极海域的冰融化而加快。这对当地百姓来 说，既会带来好处，也会带来危险。巴伦支海与喀拉海大油田的发现 增加了人们对灾难性事故的恐惧，因为不断有满载石油或液化气的船 只穿过

16、不过方式不同。 “驯鹿变得不如 以前自在了， ” 31 岁的养鹿人伊萨特艾伊拉说。在保护环境与保存地方习俗方面，没有几个国家能与挪威相比。 挪威把大量的石油收入用于这一地区，使得萨米文化仿佛经历了一场 文艺复兴。然而不论政府给以多大的帮助，也无法使艾伊拉相信他那与驯鹿 交织在一起的生活眼下不会发生变化。跟得克萨斯州的养牛人一样， 他对他的牲畜数量保密。不过他说秋季与春季温度升高，将表层积雪 融化，随后又冻成冰，这使他的驯鹿隔着冰层难以吃到地衣。艾伊拉说：“决策人都住在南边，住在城市里。他们不注意天气 的变化。只有在大自然里3 / 4讨生活的人才注意天气的变化。 ”他是坐在 家里的火炉边说这番话的，火炉里烧的是桦木。他的家是用驯鹿皮搭 成的，这种居所叫做“拉屋” 。Section 2：汉译英（50 分）China takes great pride in its varied cuisines, and food is an important element of the Chinese culture.
