今日作文题：
Do "Lucky Numbers" Really Bring Good Luck? “幸运数字”真能带来好运吗？
提示句：
一些人认为幸运数字能给他们带来好运；
认为幸运数字能给人们带来好运是荒谬的；
没有个人的努力，幸运不会降临。
范文：
Some people think lucky numbers like "6" or "8" will bring them good luck, because they bare a similar pronunciation to the related Chinese characters which mean good luck. As a result, some young couples choose a date in which there is a "6" or an "8" to hold their wedding, while many shops choose such dates to celebrate their opening ceremony.
有些人认为诸如“6”和“8”之类的数字能给他们带来好运，因为它们的发音和汉语中某些词汇的发音相似，而这些词在汉语中意味着好运。因此，许多年轻人会挑一个带“6”或“8”的日子来安排婚礼；一些商店也如此去选择开业。
However, it's rather ridiculous to think numbers can bring good fortune to people. One's success has nothing to do with the number which one chooses, but is rather related to one's own efforts. Numbers are only numbers. We should not attach too much importance to them. If you really think a lucky number can bring good luck to you, simply choose it, but don't forget to still go out of your way to make your own effort. Without your own contribution, good luck won't simply fall on you automatically.
然而，认为数字能给人带来好运实在是有点荒谬。一个人的成功和他所选定的数字无关，却
和其努力密不可分。数字仅仅是数字，我们不应认为它如此重要。如果你真的认为数字能给你带来好运，你可以挑一个，但是，你不要忘了去全力以赴地努力。没有你的努力，幸运不会自动降临。
NOTES
1. Chinese characters 汉字
2. opening ceremony 开业典礼，开幕典礼，开学典礼
相反，闭幕典礼就是closing ceremony，而毕业典礼是graduation ceremony。
3. attach importance to 重视
相似的说法有：attach significance to, put a high value on, set great store by, place emphasis on, lay stress on等。
4. go out of one's way - to make an extra effort to do something; to accept the bother of doing something 特地费心（做某事），不怕麻烦（做某事）
例：The shop assistant went out of his way to find what we needed. 那个店员不厌其烦地满足我们的需要。

篇二：英语翻译详细解释
1.Basket的意思就是“篮子”。比如说，要是一个人在一次事故中失去了四肢，他就变得毫无能力来料理自己的生活，只能让人家把他放在一只篮子里抬来抬去。这种毫无能力和希望的情景就是basket case的意思。Basket case经常被用来形容那些很穷的国家，它们的人民饥寒交迫，毫无希望。有的时候，basket case也是指那些老是亏钱，即将倒闭的企业。我们来举个例子吧：
例句-1: I'm really worried - our company is losing so much money these days that if things don't get better in the next two months we'll be a basket case and have to go out of business.
这个人说：我真是非常担心，我们公司这些日子亏损了那么多钱，要是在今后两个月里情况没有好转的话，我们就彻底没有希望，只好倒闭了。
Basket case也可以用半开玩笑的口气来指个别人，就像下面这个人。他正在找工作，刚刚到一个公司去面谈回来：
例句-2: They made me wait so long for the interview that I was a basket case by the time I finally got called in. I've never been so nervous! I stammered, I stuttered--I almost couldn't remember my own name.
这人说：他们让我等了很久才和我面谈。等到他们叫我进去的时候，我根本就不行了。我从来就没有这样紧张过，结结巴巴地说不出话来，差一点连自己的名字都忘了。
1. A cold fish; a poor fish.
高傲自大的人；可怜虫
2. My neighbour is a cold fish.

3. No one knows the new doctor, he is a cold fish.

4. We know nothing about the new neighbour; he is a cold fish.
我们一点也不熟悉新邻居；他是个不大同别人来往的人。
5. Sue is a cold fish; she showed absolutely no reaction to those awful pictures of starving children.
苏是个缺乏同情心的人，看到那些饥饿孩子们可怕的照片，她毫无反应。
6. …Mr.Bush is portrayed [by TV coverage] as a men who spends 90 percent of his time on symbols and 10 percent, if that, on substance, and Mr.Dukakis is depicted as a cold fish who bumbles a lot.
……希什先生被〔电视报导〕形容成一个用九成时间塑造形象，一成时间讨论实际问题（也许还不到），而杜卡基斯先生则被形容成一个呆板而常常犯错的人。
7. The old man's a real cold fish. I've never seen him laugh.
这老头真是个冷冰冰的人， 我从来没见他笑过。
8. An English fishman wishes to get a foolish fish for a cold dish.
一位英国渔夫希望得到一条傻瓜鱼以便做一道凉菜。
9. A dish of boned, stuffed meat or fish that is poached and served cold coated with aspic. 冻肉卷一盘将剔骨肉或去刺的鱼浇上肉冻烹饪而成的凉菜
离开了水的鱼儿
这成语
形容对新环境的不融合，一种失落感
例句：

果在西方人的心目中是一种象征吉祥的水果。他们认为苹果可以给人带来好运。 常吃苹果可以使人身体健康。英语中与苹果有关的短语数量很大。如人们知道的谚语An apple a day keeps the doctor away.（一天一个苹果，医生远离我。）就说明了西方人对苹果的珍视。
由于以上的原因，人们就用apple of one's eye这一短语来表达这样的意思：珍贵的人或物。
Charles is the apple of his mother's eye.
查尔斯是他母亲的心肝宝贝。
John regarded the gold ring left by his dead wife as the apple of his eye.
约翰把他亡妻留下的这只金戒指视为珍宝。

?最近办公室洗手间的水龙头漏水，我跟维修部门反映了好几次，一直没人来修。我显然是在beat a dead horse。
?
?想让一个人改变自己的习惯确实不是一件容易的事。一名家长抱怨说，例句-１：My son's room is a constant mess even though he knows he's expected to keep it tidy. My wife and I have done everything from pleading with him to threatening him, but it's been a waste of our time. We're simply beating a dead horse. He'll never change.
?这个当父亲的说：虽然明明知道应该保持整洁，但是我儿子的房间永远是乱糟糟的。我和我太太用尽了各种办法，不管是说服教育还是威逼利诱，都无济于事。他永远都改不了。
?
? 对于beat a dead horse这种说法的来源，语言学家们有不同的理论。其中一种
常见的说法是，十七世纪的时候，有时老板会预付工人的工钱。这部分已经付过钱，但是还没有完 成的工作就被称作dead horse。拿完工钱的工人来上工，肯定有气无力，想让他们尽快完工，就像是在beat a dead horse。

10、我赞同许多东亚学者的观点，东方文明可以医治盛行于西方世界的一些顽疾。西方世界个人自由主义泛滥导致了极端个人主义、性关系混乱以及过度暴力行为，对此我们不能视而不见。// 相反，东方社会的自我约束力，集体责任感以及温厚儒雅的传统倒可以消除西方社会的许多恶疾。// 在这个信息时代，世界已缩小成一个地球村。这个地球村里，不再有什么泾渭分明的东方世界和西方世界，我们是生活在同一个社区里的邻里。// 因此，我们彼此之间无须冲突。我们之间的关系应该是一种友好合作，平等互补的关系。我们应该相互理解，相互学习，和睦共处。
I share the same view with many East Asian scholars that the Oriental civilization can heal some of the prevailing ,stubborn Western ills. We should not turn a blind eye to the fact that individual freedom has gone overboard in the West, resulting in extreme individualism, sexual promiscuity and excessive use of violence.// By contrast,self-discipline, corporate responsibility and the pacific tradition of East Asia can offset many Western vices.// At this age of information, the world has shrunk as a global village in which there will be no clear-cut worlds of the East and the West any more, but a world of one community with neighboring families.// Therefore,we do not necessarily have to come into clash with each other. Our relationship is one of friendly cooperation, equality and mutual complementarity and therefore,we should understand and learn from each other, and live in harmony.//

Equality and mutual benefit is the fundamental principle of international trade. Therefore, it is normal that countries will seek to protect their own interests, which may lead to trade friction sand disputes. The key lies in how to cope with these issues correctly in a cool and wise manner.// As for China-US trade, mutually beneficial and win-win trade and economic ties have delivered tangible economic benefits to the two peoples.Now, with over 40,000 U.S.- invested enterprises, the total investment in China stands at $45 billion.// Of the top 500 U.S companies, more than 400 have their business in China, and most of them are making handsome profit. At the same time, many Chinese commodities have become favored choices of American consumers.Meanwhile, the number of Chinese-invested enterprises in the United Sates has surpassed 1,000.// We predict that trade disputes between China and the United States will become more acute along with the further development in bilateral trade and economic cooperation. The overall development in
bilateral trade and economic cooperation is, however, irreversible. There are two factors contribute to this trend.Firstly, the Sino-U.S. economic and trade relations enjoy complementarities in vast fields. Secondly, China has an outstanding labor cost advantage.//
12、中国国际出版集团是中国最大的、最权威的外语出版发行单位，其前身是中央人民政府新闻出版署国际新闻局。// 我集团坚持“让中国走向世界，让世界了解中国”的出版原则，全心致力于中国外语教育与研究事业的发展，全心致力于中外文化交流事业的拓展。// 为了加强对出版人才队伍的建设，为了满足日益增长的特殊出版业务的需要，我集团每年都要选派一些青年员工到国内外知名高等学府和研究机构进修，// 根据我们的发展战略，我们会将前进的步伐迈出国界走向世界，瞄准海外读者群，这一战略已取得了良好的开局。// The China International Publishing Group is the largest and the most authoritative foreign language publishing and distribution establishment, its predecessor being the International Press Bureau of the Central People's Government Press and Publication Administration.//Adhering to the publishing philosophy of “assisting China's march to the world and facilitating world's understanding of China”, the Group commits itself entirely to promoting foreign language education and research in China and advancing cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries.// In order to build up a strong team of publishing staff, as well as to meet the growing need of more technically demanding business, the Group makes it a rule that young staff be selected and sent to noted universities and research institutions, both domestic and overseas,for further studies.// As is clearly spelled out in our new development strategy,we will go beyond our national boundaries and wedge ourselves into the world circulation market, aiming at the international readership. Our initial effort shave been very rewarding.//
13.改革开放30 年来，随着中国逐渐崛起成为政治经济强国，海外人士学习汉语的现象与日俱增，海外孔子学院也成了人们学习中国语言和中国文化的首选之地。// 通过学习汉语，他们对这个和自己文化大相径庭的古老文明产生了浓厚的兴趣，而且有机会了解中国的哲学、艺术、医学、饮食文化，亲身体验这个文明古国的风采。// 作为第二文化，中国文化也丰富了他们的生活和世界观。可以说，这个潮流方兴未艾。越来越多的学习汉语的美国人除了对中国菜肴赞不绝口之外，也在尝试针灸，草药和武术。//他们也看功夫电影，学习东方时装潮流和手工艺，不知不觉的在日常生活中谈及中国的点心，人参、银杏，乌龙茶等。目前在美国最热门的中国文化是道家学说和有着神秘色彩的风水学。
As China is rising as a political and economic world power, thanks to its three-decade reform and opening up, more and more people in overseas countries start to learn Chinese and turn to a Confucius Institute in their own countries as their first choice learning Chinese language and Chinese culture.// During the learning process, the learners concurrently develop their interest in this ancient land, whose civilization is so vastly different from theirs. And the learners have opportunities to learn about Chinese philosophy, art, architecture, medicine and catering culture and experience first-hand the
