2015年6月英語(yǔ)四級(jí)翻譯真題及參考譯文：中國(guó)最基本飲食（滬江網(wǎng)校版）

　翻譯原文：　
在西方人心目中，和中國(guó)聯(lián)系最為密切的基本食物是大米。長(zhǎng)期以來(lái)，大米在中國(guó)人的飲食中占據(jù)很重要的地位，以至于有諺語(yǔ)說“巧婦難為無(wú)米之炊”。中國(guó)南方大多數(shù)種植水稻，人們通常以大米為食;而華北大部分地區(qū)因?yàn)檫^于寒冷或過于干燥，無(wú)法種植水稻，那里的主要作物是小麥。在中國(guó)，有些人用面粉做面包，但大多數(shù)人用面粉做饅頭和面條。

　　參考譯文：
In the mind of Westerners, Chinese people have the closest connection to rice, basic food for the Chinese. For a long time, rice occupies a very important position in the Chinese diet. There is even a saying that "even a clever housewife cannot cook a meal without rice". People in south China plant and live on rice, while people in the most parts of North China cannot plant rice due to excessively dry and cold weather. The main crop there is wheat. In China, some people use flour to bake bread, while most people make steamed bread and noodles with flour.
