第一册翻译稿1. 中国图腾生肖和姓氏文化龙，深深植根于中国文化中，我们中国人经常称自己为“龙的传人”（descendant）。
在传统观念（concept）中，人们通常认为龙是主管降雨的神，他们有权力决定下雨的时间和地点；龙还是皇权的象征，皇帝都认为自己是真龙天子；每个中国人都知道每个家庭的父母都“望子成龙”。
The dragon is deeply rooted in Chinese culture，we Ch inese often consider ourselves “the descendants of the dragon”. In traditional concept, dragons are considered as the God of governing rainfall, they have the power to decide where and when the rain falls; the dragon is a symbol of imperial power, the emperors thought they were the sons of the heaven; it is not unfamiliar to you that the parents in each Chinese family hope their children will become the "dragon".2. 中国传统民俗、节日和武术文化传统节庆膳食是中国节日必不可少(indispensable)的伴侣。
例如，端午节（Dragon Boat Festival）是纪念古代诗人屈原的日子，那一天人们通常要赛龙舟、吃粽子(rice dumpling)；中秋节（Mid-autumn Festival, Mooncake Festival）是观赏满月的日子，圆月亮象征着事情圆满和家庭团聚，因此中秋节特制食品是圆圆的月饼（mooncake）。
