Please translate the following English passage into Chinese.At the Spring Festival early this year, I returned to the village. I saw blacktop roads. Now living in brick houses, the villagers had internet access. Elderly folks had basic old-age care, and all villagers had medical care coverage. Children were in school. Of course, meat was readily available. This made me very aware that the Chinese Dream is after all a dream of the people. We can fulfill the Chinese Dream only when we link it to our people’s yearning for a better life.

A six-week old infant who died some 11,500 years ago in central Alaska is now providing clues about how the Americas first came to be populated. Genomic data from remains of the girl -named"Xach'itee'aanenhT'eedeGaay"(Sunrise Girl-Child) by the local indigenous community-broadly support a migration model that scientists have long argued for, while also revealing the existence of an ancient population previously unknown to science. The girl was a member of an ancient population that the report authors have named"Ancient Beringians". Beringia is the name given to Alaska, Eastern Siberia, and the land bridge that periodically connected the two during the last ice age. The findings suggest a re vised family tree:a single ancestral Native American group split from East Asians about 35 ,000 years ago, before later splitting, some 20,000 years ago, into two distinct groups. One was the Ancient Beringians, and the other constituted the ancestors of modern-day Native Americans, who later split into northern and southern populations about 15,700 years ago. "Trying to integrate these findings with what we know from archaeology (考古学)and paleoecology (古 生态学)presents exciting new puzzles,"says Ben Potter, an anthropologist (人类学家)at the University of Alaska."The peopling has been shown now to be more complex than we thought previously."Scientists have sought ancient human remains from Beringia at the end of the last ice age,but Xach'itee'aanenhT'eedeGaay's genome neid a surprise:1 t was clearly Native American, but not from either of the two major modern Native American groups. It represented a population that diverged from that common ancestor. All of this helps narrow down and strengthen the theories of just how those populations arrived in the Americas. But mysteries remain, including definitive answers about where and when some of these population splits occurred and which migration routes were used. Researchers outline two possible models. In one scenario,which Dr. Potter favors since it matches well with archaeological data and paleoecological data, the split occurred in Northeast Asia,and the two separate s later crossed over the land bridge prior to 15,700 years ago, when the Native American ancestors populauons she other theory, the ancestral population had already arrived in Alaska or eastern berngia by split again. 1 20,000 years ago, and the split occurred there,with the second split into North and South American populations occurring south of the ice sheets. What happened to the Ancient Beringians? They might have died out,says Potter, or they could have been absorbed by Northern Native Americans who migrated back to the far North. Researchers li ken the puzzle to a murder mystery."You read the book, and the author reveals new clues over the course of the book. Every time a new genome is analyzed and reported,it provides a new clue that's making the pathway to uncover the real story that much clearer." 46. What can we learn about the girl called"Xach'itee'aanenhT'eedeGaay"? A) She was found dead about six-week old some 11,500 years ago. B)She provided new clues for the study on the first American population. C) She belonged to an ancient population that used to dwell in Beringia. D)She migrated to central Alaska sometime during the last ice age. 47. Which of following is mentioned by Ben Potter as the"exciting new puzzles"?

Americans experience more food recalls (召回) today than they did five years ago, especially when it comes to meat and poultry (家禽). Meat and poultry recalls increased by two-thirds from 2013 to 2018, while food recalls overall went up 10%, according to the report recently published by the U.S. Public Interest Research Group.Meanwhile, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates (估计) 48 million people get sick, 128,000 are hospitalized and 3,000 die from food-borne disease each year in the U.S. "We are looking for the farm-to-fork preventative solutions," said Adam Garber, the research group's consumer watchdog. "By doing that, we can protect people's health."Over the five-year period, poultry posted the most recalls (168), followed by beef (137) and pork (128). The report shows the most serious meat recalls are on the rise. Among meat and poultry, the number of Class I recalls has increased by 83%, nearly doubling. Class I, the most serious of the recalls, is issued when there is a reasonable probability that the food will cause health problems or death.53. When would Class I recalls be issued?A. When the food is likely to cause health problems or death.B. When there are too many complaints from customers.C. When the food problem lasts for five years.D. When the product quality is below standard.

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.

The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.
