　　英語六級翻譯訓練題參考譯文

　　In China，besides handshaking，when meeting friends and relatives, or paying a visit to someone during the Spring Festival，the fist-and-palm salute is also common etiquette. It is an important etiquette in ancient China with a history of more than 2,000 years. The fist-and-palm salute was formed in the West Zhou Dynasty, and later it became the etiquette when meeting peers. Chinese people show their respect to others through distance，which is different from Western people who usually show respect through physical closeness. Fist-and-palm salute is done from certain distance, which is in line with modem hygiene requirements. So many etiquette experts believe that fist-and-palm salute is the most appropriate communication etiquette.

　　每種文化都有自己的行為準則，中國也不例外。在中國，跟別人打招呼時，你或者點個頭，或者微微鞠個躬。握手也很常見，但你要等到中國朋友先伸手才可以。另外，與西方社會的做法截然相反，中國人不太喜歡被陌生人觸碰。所以不 要輕易地觸碰別人，除非你完全有這樣的必要。最后一點，根據儒家思想 (Confiicianism)的觀點，老人在任何情況下都應該受到年輕人的尊敬。你應該總是以老人為先，并對他們表本最大的敬意。
