1、阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。
Chinese writing is one of the world's greatest writing systems（系统）. It is more widely in use than alphabetic（字母的）writing systems. 60 世界上多于一半的书是用中文写的, including historical writings and novels, along with writings on government and law.
At the beginning, written Chinese was a picture-based 1anguage. It dates back（追溯）several thousand years to the use of animal bones and shells on which symbols were carved（刻） by ancient Chinese people. 61. Some of the ancient symbols can still be seen in today's hanzi.
62.By the Shang Dynasty, these symbols had become a well-developed writing system. Over the years, the system developed into different forms, as it was a time when people were divided geographically, leading to different dialects（方言） and characters. This, however, changed under Emperor Qishihuang of the Qin Dynasty.
Emperor Qinshihuang united（统一）the seven major states into one country where the Chinese writing system began to develop in one direction. 63.这个系统在统一中国人民和文化方面起着重要的作用。Even today, no matter where Chinese people live or what dialect they speak，they can all still communicate in writing.
Today, Chinese writing system is still an important part of Chinese culture. As China plays a great role in the world, an increasing number of international students are beginning to appreciate（欣赏） China's culture through this amazing language. 64. Written Chinese spreads Chinese culture wherever it goes.

24、One year, a college in the United States announced that it would offer a lot of money for the pure white marigold(金盏花). The high reward attracted so many people, but in the nature, besides golden, the marigold is brown, and it is not easy to get the white one. So after they were excited for a time, many people had forgotten the announcement.
One normal day after 20 years, the college received a letter and 100 seeds of pure white marigold. It was an old woman of over 70 years old. Some experts in the college doubted it, but in order not to let her down, those seeds finally took root (根）in the earth. The miracle appeared after one year; the field was covered by pure white marigold.
Therefore, the old woman who was always unknown to the public became a new focus.
The old woman was a flower-lover. When she read the announcement 20 years ago, she got very excited like others. But her eight children were totally against her decision. After all, a woman who never knew the seed genetics(遗传学) couldn’t complete what the experts could never do, so her thought was only a day dream.
Still, the old woman didn’t change her mind and went on working. She planted some of the most common seeds and took good care of them. A year later, when the marigold came out, she chose one faintest(最暗淡的) from those golden and brown flowers and got the best seed. The next year, she again grew them and chose...Day after day, year after year, through many seasons, the old woman’s husband died, her children flew far, a lot of things happened in her life, but only the wish to grow the pure white marigold took root in her heart.
Finally, after 20 years on the day we all know, in the garden she saw a marigold, which was nearly white, but as white as silver or snow.

25、 When you feel sick, you go to the doctor. She checks your fever, and asks what you’ve been thinking about recently. When you leave, she gives you not only some medicine but also a list of thinking skills that you are supposed to practice daily. She says that the way you think is causing some of your illness.
Doctors and scientists who study the human mind and try to explain why people behave in the way they do are called psychologists (心理学家). They are starting to believe that your brain is connected to every part of your body through your nervous system ( 神 经 系 统 ). Now scientists have proved that how you think and feel can have an influence on the health of your body. Stress can help us better understand this link(关联).
Stress is caused whenever there is a problem or a change in your life. In fact, stress is necessary, so everybody has stress more or less. Without stress, we would never learn anything or grow or change. But too much stress can hurt you. It can weaken your body’s protection so that you are more likely to catch diseases. It can even make you more likely to have an accident.
When you feel stressed, your brain sends a message to your body to produce a chemical thing that speeds up your breathing and your heartbeat. And that’s what can do something bad to you. Therefore, how can you deal with stress? First, you can try to find ways to change things so you aren’t under so much stress. You can set up a plan to finish homework or go to a doctor or a psychologist to try to work things out with your family or your friends. But sometimes you can’t change a stressful situation. Sometimes you don’t even want to. A big change might be a good change, but it will still be stressful.
The link between your body and brain works in two ways. Your body can help your mind deal with stress. If you are under stress, you need to take especially good care of your body. It’s important to get enough sleep and eat nutritious ( 有 营 养 的 ) meals. Some people take a vitamin-mineral pill every day. Another thing that you can do is daily exercise. You can go running or jogging or do aerobic(有氧的) dancing or work out at the gym.

26、One day after school, I went to the teacher's office to see my teacher, but nobody was there. As I was about to leave, I noticed a piece of paper on the floor. I picked it up and saw the words "FINAL-TERM EXAMINATION" at the top. I put the paper into my school bag secretly and ran out of the room.
After I came back home, I took out the paper quickly. It was the exam paper of my worst subject, History. I felt excited. My heart beat fast. I took out my History book and started working on the answer. I had never answered any questions so seriously.
On the day of the History exam, I went into the exam hall confidently. When the paper was sent to me, I dreamt of getting the highest mark in the whole grade and could not help smiling. "My History teacher always encouraged me to work hard and get better grades, but I let him down time and time again. This time I will give him a big surprise," I thought.
When the teacher said we could start, I turned the paper over. To my surprise, all the questions were different. Later I felt nervous. In the end, I almost left the paper undone. After the exam, I ran to the toilet, took out the paper and carefully read it from the top. Oh! It was last year's exam paper. I read all the questions but I hadn't read the date.

27、At present, more and more people are crazy about traveling. Why do people travel? “The world is so big that I want to have a look.” many people would say. But traveling abroad now means much more than that for the growing number of Chinese tourists. Of course it offers us good opportunities to meet people from other countries, learn about their culture and customs.
According to the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), more than 1 billion people traveled to another country in 2012. In 2012, Chinese people traveled abroad 30 percent more than in 2011. In 2014, the number of outbound tourists has reached over 100 million for the first time. Compared with 2013, it has increased by 19.49%. Chinese has ranked first as the main source of the world tourism according to the report. The prosperity (繁荣) of the tourism industry can also bring both our country and foreign countries great economic benefits（经济利益）. Chinese people usually travel abroad in large tourist groups and visit several countries in one trip.
Chinese people don’t just travel for sightseeing. The China International Travel Service Company said that all their tour trips sold out a month before Christmas Day. Stores offered discounts (打折) during that time, so shopping in Europe and the United States is popular among Chinese travelers.
In December, China is going through a very cold winter. So many people like to go to some countries in Southeast Asia because the weather there is quite pleasant.
The improvement of living standards means more Chinese can travel abroad. But many of them don’t have a sense of public manners. A report by Living Social website in March 2012 even listed Chinese as the world’s second worst tourists.
If you want to change that bad name, remember to avoid the following: littering, spitting, snatching bus seats, line-jumping, taking off shoes in public, talking loudly and smoking in non-smoking areas. Besides, we should learn some necessary manners of foreign countries.
