老外過春節(jié)
范文：
What is presented here is a very interesting scenario. A white man is dressed in traditional Chinese costume composed of a bright red hat and a long robe. From the subtitle we know that he is participating in the annual celebration of the Chinese Spring Festival, his face revealing happiness and satisfaction. Behind him are more foreigners in traditional Chinese costumes of various styles.
We can deduce from the picture that the world is paying more attention to the traditional Chinese culture that with a long history. It partly owes to China’s growth into one of world’s principal economies, and partly to the colorful and diversified components in the culture itself. Except the case reflected in the picture, there is bountiful evidence demonstrating the prevailing influence and strong surge of Chinese culture. For example, it has become a convention for the French President to congratulate on the Chinese New Year.
To conclude, I believe that the world’s recognition of Chinese culture brings China and the rest of the world closer. Apart from mutual benefits of economic expansion, culture exchanges also promote international friendships at home and abroad. Furthermore, they can create a friendly ecosystem to allow China a better environment of development. Lastly, they also contributes vastly to the world’s peace and prosperity.
譯文：
這幅圖展示的是一個非常有趣的情景。一個白人穿著一套中國傳統(tǒng)服裝，即一頂大紅的帽子和長袍。從題目中我們可推斷他正在參加一個慶祝中國春節(jié)的年度盛會，同時他喜氣洋洋的笑臉充分展示了他的快樂和滿足。他后面還有更多的外國人穿著不同風格的中國服飾。
我們可以從這幅圖中推斷，世界對于擁有悠久歷史的中國傳統(tǒng)文化開始投入了越來越多的關注。這一部分是因為中國已發(fā)展成為世界上的主要經濟體之一，一部分是因為中國文化本身就非常多采和豐富。除了圖中反映的例子，還有無數(shù)的事實可以證明中國文化的影響越來越廣泛和深入。例如，現(xiàn)在法國總統(tǒng)每年向中國人們問候新年已經成為了慣例。
總而言之，我認為世界對于中國文化的承認使得中國和世界其他地區(qū)走得越來越近了。除了經濟擴張帶來的相互利益，文化交流促進了在國內外的友誼發(fā)展。此外，文化交流也為中國的發(fā)展創(chuàng)造出了一個友好的環(huán)境。最后，這對于世界的和平與繁榮也做出了巨大的貢獻。
