一篇英譯漢
Two old men sat on a park bench one morning in the sunshine of Tampa, Florida, one trying to read a book he was plainly enjoying while the other, Harold K. Bullard told him the story of his life in the full, round, head tones of a public address system. At their feet lay Bullard\'s Labrador retriever, who further tormented the aged listener by probing his ankles with a large, wet nose. Bullard, who had been, before he retired, successful in many fields, enjoyed reviewing his important past. But he faced the problem that complicates the lives of cannibals, namely: that a single victim cannotbe used over and over. Anyone who had passed the time of day with him and his dog refused to share a bench with them again. So Bullard and his dog set out through the park each day in quest of new faces. They had had good luck this morning, for theyhad found this stranger right away, clearly a new arrival in Florida, still buttonedup tight in heavy stiff collar and necktie, and with nothing to do better than read.
一篇漢譯英～白蟻之害
你知道白蟻之害嗎？一座大廈如果有了白蟻，不加防治，不到十年時間，里面的地板壁板，都會蛀蝕一空。一般的房屋受了嚴重的蟻害，有的還會突然倒塌下來，傷人性命。電桿被白蟻蛀蝕，一般兩三年就要換一次。船只有了白蟻，輕的會將貨物蛀爛，重的會使般沉沒。鐵路枕木如果受白蟻侵蝕，火車就會有出軌的危險。白蟻這種害蟲，實在是相當可惡的。
在我們的社會里，則有另一種“白蟻”。前些日子報載吉林省外貿局副局長王震宇利用職權，大慷國家之慨，吃喝玩樂，請客送禮，浪費驚人，不也是一種“白蟻”之害嗎？

大作文
Truth is more of a stranger than fiction——Mark Twain
The quotation stresses the elusive nature of the truth. Self-knowledge is a personal type of truth that, for some, is a known. For others, it is as elusive as the “stranger” in Twain quote.
Do we need to be faced with hard choices in order to find the truth about who we are?
