英語六級翻譯練習(xí)題:月餅的來歷
關(guān)于吃月餅這個傳統(tǒng)的來歷有兩個傳說。一個是唐朝的神話故事,說的是當時地球被10個太陽包圍著。有一天10個太陽同時出現(xiàn)在天空中,巨大的熱量幾乎把地球烤焦了。多虧一位名叫后羿的神箭手射下了9個太陽,地球才被保住。為了獎勵后羿,王母娘娘賜給后羿一種長生不老藥,但是王母警告他必須正當使用。然而后羿沒有理會王母娘娘的警告,他被名利沖昏了頭腦,變成了一個暴君。后羿美麗的妻子嫦娥對他的暴行再也不能袖手旁觀,于是她偷走了后羿的長生不老藥,飛到月亮上逃避后羿的狂怒。從此就有了關(guān)于月宮仙子嫦娥,這個月亮上的美麗女人的傳說。
There are two legends which claim to explain the tradition of eating mooncakes.One Tang Dynasty myth holds that the Earth once had 10 suns circling it.One day all 10 suns appeared at once, scorching the planet with their heat.It was thanks to a skillful archer named Hou Yi that the Earth was saved. He shot down all but one of the suns.As his reward, the Heavenly Queen Mother gave Hou Yi the Elixir of Immortality, but she warned him that he must use it wisely.Hou Yi ignored her advice and, corrupted by fame and fortune, became a tyrannical leader.Chang-Er, his beautiful wife, could no longer stand by and watch him abuse his power so she stole his Elixir and fled to the moon to escape his angry wrath.And thus began the legend of the beautiful woman in the moon, the Moon Fairy.
