汉译英:都市寸土千金,地价炒得越来越高。今后将更高。拥有一个小小花园的希望,对寻常之辈不啻是一种奢望,一种梦想。我想,其实谁都有一个小小花园,这便是我们的内心世界。人的智力需要开发,人的内心世界也是需要开发的。人和动物的区别,除了众所周知的诸多方面,恐怕还在于人有内心世界。心不过是人的一个重要脏器,而内心世界是一种景观,它是由外部世界不断地作用于内心渐渐形成的。每个人都无比关注自己及至亲至爱之人心脏的健损,以至于稍有微疾便惶惶不可终日。但并非每个人都关注自己及至亲至爱之人的内心世界的阴晴。

汉译英:流逝,表现了南国人对时间最早的感觉。“子在川上曰,逝者如斯夫。”他们发现无论是潺潺小溪,还是浩荡大河,都一去不复返,流逝之际青年变成了老翁而绿草转眼就枯黄,很自然有错阴的紧迫感。流逝也许是缓慢的,但无论如何缓慢,对流逝的恐惧使人们必须用“流逝”这个词来时时警戒后人,必须急匆匆地行动,给这个词灌注一种紧张感。

作文 以下面提供的材料为依托,遵循“请示”的写作格式只要求写明标题、受文单位、正文、行文单位、成文时间,按照“请示”的写作要求,以广东省人民政府的名义,向国务院起草一份内容先后有序、结构合理的“请示”。 丹霞山风景名胜区位于广东省韶关市仁化、曲江两县境内,面积186平方公里,分丹霞山、韶石山、大石山三个景区。距韶关市区最近处10公里,最远处50公里,柏油公路直达主峰景区,观光旅游的交通十分方便。 根据国务院《风景名胜区管理条例》,我们对丹霞山风景名胜区进行了资源调查、评价,编制了总体规划。现申请把丹霞山风景名胜区列为国家重点名胜区,请审批。 据地质考证,6500万年前丹霞山所在地是一个大湖泊,由于造山运动,形成红岩峭壁和嶙峋洞穴,构成奇异自然风景。在全世界同类地形中,以丹霞山最为典型,“丹霞地貌”已成为国际地质学名词。现丹霞山景区已开发接待游人的范围为12平方公里,主要景点有87处,山、瀑、江、湖兼备,绿化良好,兼之摩崖刻、寺庵、亭台楼阁点缀其间,自然人文景观丰富。靠丹霞山南侧的韶石山景区,傍地浈水,是历史上舜帝南巡奏乐之处,内有“三十六石”的奇景;丹霞山两侧的大石山景区,类似丹霞山的奇山异峰,有丹寨幽洞、岩柱等自然景观。在丹霞山风景名胜区附近,有“金鸡岭”、“九龙十八滩”、“古佛岩”、“南华寺”、“马坝人遗址”等风景及名胜古迹,总面积约4万平方公里。目前,粤北地区以丹霞山风景名胜区为中心形成了我省一条重要的旅游线。
