英语四级翻译训练每日一题附答案和讲解 第187期:太极拳

请将下面这段话翻译成英文:

太极拳(Taijiquan)是一种中国武术内家拳(the internal

styles of Chinese martial art)。它基于以柔克刚(the soft

overcoming the hard)的原理,发端于中国古代,最开始是一种武术和自卫方式。随着时间的推移,人们开始通过练太极拳来改善健康状况、增加福祉(well-being)。练习者用意念慢慢地、轻轻地移动身体,

同时深呼吸,因此有时被称为移动冥想(meditation)。中国人通常会在清晨到附近的公园练习太极拳。

参考答案:

Taijiquan is one of the internal styles of Chinese martial

art. It is based on the principle of the soft overcoming the

hard and originated in ancient China as a martial art and a means

of self-defense. Over time, people began to exercise it to

improve their health and well-being. Practicers move their

bodies slowly,gently and with thought while breathing deeply,so it is sometimes referred to as “moving meditation”.Chinese

commonly practice Taijiquan in nearby parks in early morning.
