2017年12月英語四級試題之翻譯真題及譯文：華山

　　華山位于華陰市，距西安120公里。華山是秦嶺的一部分。秦嶺不僅分割陜南與陜北，也分隔華南與華北。與從前人們常去朝拜的泰山不同。華山過去很少有人光臨。因為上山的道路極其危險。然而，希望長壽的人卻經(jīng)常上山，因為山上生長著許多藥草，特別是一些稀有的藥草。自上世紀(jì)90年代安裝纜車以來，參觀人數(shù)大大增加。

　　參考范文：

　　Mount Hua is located in Huayin City (Shaanxi, China), 120 kilometers away from Xi’an. It is part of the Qinling or Qin Mountains, which divide not only northern and southern Shaanxi, but also south and north China. Unlike Mount Tai that used to be frequented by worshipers/pilgrims, Mount Hua was not well visited by pilgrims from the rest of China as the roads in the mountain were extremely dangerous/because of inaccessibility of its summits. Back then, however, those who wished to enjoy longevity/immortality seekers ventured in Mount Hua quite a lot because it was believed that numerous herbs, rare ones in particular, grew in the mountain. Since cable cars were installed in Mount Hua in the 1990s, the number of visitors has increased dramatically / significantly / exponentially / the mountain has seen a dramatic rise in tourist arrivals.
