　　經濟全球化(Economic globalization)必然帶來文化產品和服務的全球化。我國對外開放的進一步擴大，既為我們學習借鑒世界優秀文化成果，推動我國文化走向世界提供了有利條件，也使我國文化面臨激烈的國際競爭。從目前的情況看，我國的文化體制還不能完全適應經濟全球化的新形勢，我國深厚的文化底蘊和豐富的文化資源還沒有轉化為國際影響力和競爭力。

　　如果不加快發展，形成我們自己的文化優勢，就難以在激烈的國際文化競爭中站穩腳跟。

　　翻譯練習題答案：

　　Economic globalization will inevitably bring about the globalization of cultural products and services. Further expansion of China's opening up provides favorable conditions for us to learn from the world's outstanding cultural achievements, and promote our culture to the world; at the same time, it puts high pressure of competition on our culture. Based on the current situation, China's cultural system still doesn't fully adapt to the new situation of economic globalization. Efforts are needed to transform China's rich cultural heritage and rich cultural resources into international influence and competitiveness. If we do not speed up development and build up our own cultural superiority, it is difficult to gain a firm foothold in the highly competitive international culture.

　　“抱抱裝”(Hugging Dress)被2006年11月6日的《時代》雜志評為“2006年最具創意新發明”。它是一種能讓人感覺到被擁抱的衣服，這種上衣采用高科技布料制成，能模仿被愛人擁抱的感覺。當朋友通過短信傳給你一個“擁抱”信息，手機會通過藍牙技術(Bluetooth technology) “通知”衣服，它隨即能把這個擁抱完整傳遞給你。這種衣服可以儲存多名親友擁抱的力度、維持時間，甚至親友的心跳節奏。更為實用的是，這種衣服能洗滌反復使用。

　　翻譯練習題答案：

　　"Hugging Dress" was named by Time magazine on November 6, 2006 as "the Most Innovative New Invention in 2006". It's a garment that can make people sense the feeling of being hugged. The dress is made of high-tech fabrics that can mimic the feeling of being hugged by loved ones. When a friend passes to you a "hug" message via SMS, the mobile phone can "notice" this dress via Bluetooth technology; then it gives you the full feeling of being hugged. This dress can memorize the strength and the time of hugs by several friends and relatives, even including their heartbeats. The more practical feature is that this dress can be washed for repeated use.
