京剧(Beijing Opera)是中国的国粹。作为一门古老的艺术，京剧的服装(costume)、脸谱(facial mask)更易被人喜爱。不同的服装 类型反映不同的人物身份特征。富贵者的服装缀满精美的刺绣;穷困 者的服装则简单朴素，少有装饰(elemental)。脸谱是京剧中塑造人物形象的重要手段，它是用不同的颜色在脸上勾画出来的。脸谱的颜色让人一看便知角色(portray)的善恶。比如白色代表奸诈(treachery)， 黑色代表正直不阿，黄色是骁勇，蓝、绿色多用于绿林好汉(rebellious fighters)，金、银色多用于神佛(divinity and Buddhism)等。
Beijing Opera is the cream of the Chinese culture. As a tradi?tional art form, its costumes and facial mask are more popular with peo?ple. Different styles of costumes are used to reflect the status of different characters. There are more decorations in the costumes of nobles，while those of the poor tend to be simple and less elemental.

In general，white usually represents treachery, black represents righteousness, yellow represents bravery, blue and green represent rebellious fighters，while gold and silver represent di?vinity and Buddhism.
英文段落摘抄及翻译鉴赏
Between us
There have been many first times
And I remember each and every one
But the time I remember most often...
Is the first time
I fell in love with you
Living Life Over
If I had my life to live over...I would have talked less and listened more.
I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was strained and the sofa faded.
I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his youth.
I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer day because my hair had just been teased and sprayed.
I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage.
I would have sat on the lawn with my children and not worried about grass stains.
I would have cried and laughed less while watching television - and more while watching life.
I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earth would go into a holding patter if I were not there for the day.
I would never have bought anything just because it was practical, would not show soil or was guaranteed to last a life time.
There would have been more "I love yous" ... more "I'm sorrys"... but mostly, given another shots at life, I would seize every minute... look at it and really see it...live it...and never give it back.
中文翻译：
如果有来生
如果有来生，我会少说，多听
我会请朋友来家吃饭，即便地毯脏了，沙发褪色了。
我会抽时间听祖父絮叨他的青年时代
我不会因为刚刚把头发梳理定型而要求在夏天关上车窗。
我会点燃那支雕成玫瑰状的蜡烛，而不让它在尘封中熔化。
我会与孩子们坐在草地上，不去担心草地上的污渍。
我会把泪水和笑声更多地留给观察人生，而不是观看电视。
如果生病了，我会卧床休息，而不是自认没有我，地球就不转了。
我不会买那些仅仅是实用，或者不显脏，或者保证能用一生的东西。
我会更多地说“我爱你”……“对不起”……然而，最重要的是，如果有来生，
我会抓住每一秒……看人生，读人生……体验人生……再也不放手。

英文段落摘抄及翻译阅读
the first time we met...
we both knew enough of love, and life, to understand that
two people don't fall in love,
they grow into it, slowly —
and we'd both been hurt before by feelings that seemed too easily lost...
but there was something between usfrom the beginning
a unique harmony that made us take that special chance...
You and I took a special chance
the first time we argued...
after feeling hurt and sad, and both of us trying to apologize
at the same time for disagreeing
over such a small matter, we knew
that our relationship was worth more
than anything that might come between us.
We knew after that first time
that what we had together
would see us through the hard times
and make us better appreciate the good,
because we took that special chance...
You and I took a special chance
the first time we said "I love you"...
for we knew that we would share
stormy as well as sunny times, laugher ans tears, some dreams that
would come beautifully true, and others
that would fade in our memories —
and we knew in our hearts
that our love deserved all the effort
we could make to fulfill our life together...
for we took that special chance...
and found a very special love.
The beginning of love is to let those we love to be just themselves, and not twist them with our own image-otherwise, we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.
The happiest of people don't necessarily having the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.
When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.
The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past, you can't get on well in life unless you let go of your past failures and heartaches.
中文翻译：
爱之初，让我们所爱的人保持他们的本色，不要把他们强扭成我们自己的模样，否则，我们所爱的仅仅是我们在他们身上的影子。
最快乐的人不必事事尽善尽美，他们只会让大部分事情顺其自然。
当你呱呱落地时，你大声地哭泣，你周围的每个人都朝你微笑。而当你走完余生时，你是唯一微笑的人，你周围的人却要为你落泪。
锦绣前程建立在对过去的宽怀上，如果往昔的失误与烦恼总也不能释怀，生活就难以顺心如意。
