端午节特刊：英语话屈原
中国日报网
公元前277年，屈平66岁，他已不再是那个会写出全世界最美丽的爱情诗的青年，而成了一个面容憔悴、脸色灰暗的老人。一位渔父问他何至落魄至此，他回答说：“举世皆浊我独清，众人皆醉我独醒。”
后人提起他时，通常以字敬称，称他为屈原。实际上他字原，名平。

2.屈平生平简介
如果你想向外国朋友介绍文青屈平，小编现在就教你一些实用的英文表达！
屈平是两千多年前战国时期（the Warring States period）的一位楚国（State of Chu）官员，也是古代中国最伟大的诗人之一（one of the greatest poets of ancient China）。他是楚国王室宗亲（a member of the Chu royal clan），曾是备受楚怀王信任的“左徒”（可以译为minister，也可以再解释一下：He was a trusted, favored counselor of the ruler of Chu）。他的诗歌充满原创性和瑰丽的想象（His verse is highly original and imaginative）。
3.《离骚》选段英译
长太息以掩涕兮，哀民生之多艰。
Long did I sigh and wipe away my tears,
To see my people bowed by griefs and fears.
亦余心之所善兮，虽九死其犹未悔。
Since my heart did love such purity,
I'd not regret a thousand deaths to die.
惟草木之零落兮，恐美人之迟暮。
The fallen flowers lay scattered on the ground,
The dusk might fall before my dream was found.
4.屈平诗歌赏析
《九歌·山鬼》
The Mountain Spirit (A Verse in "Nine Songs")
“山鬼”，即山中之神。通常被认为是一位女神。有研究者认为，本诗讲述了一场“人神恋爱”，即山鬼爱上了人间的公子的故事。也有研究者认为，按先秦祭祀礼俗，巫者降神必须先将自己装扮得与神灵相貌、服饰相似，神灵才肯“附身”受祭。本诗以装扮成山鬼模样的女巫，入山接迎神灵（公子）而不遇的情状，来表现世人虔诚迎神以求福佑的思恋之情。
若有人兮山之阿，被薜荔兮带女萝。
既含睇兮又宜笑，子慕予兮善窈窕。
There seem to be a lady in the deep mountain,
Clad in creeping vine and girded with ivy,
With a charming look and a becoming smile.
"Do you admire me for my lovely form?"
乘赤豹兮从文狸，辛夷车兮结桂旗。
被石兰兮带杜衡，折芳馨兮遗所思。
余处幽篁兮终不见天，路险难兮独后来。
She rides a red leopard - striped lynxes follwing behind -
Her chariot of magnolia arrayed with banners of cassia,
Her cloak made of orchids and her girdle of azalea,
Calling sweet flowers for those dear in her heart.
"I live in a bamboo grove, the sky unseen
The road hither is I arrive alone and late."
表独立兮山之上，云容容兮而在下。
杳冥冥兮羌昼晦，东风飘兮神灵雨。
留灵修兮憺忘归，岁既晏兮孰华予？
"Alone I stand on the mountain top
While the clouds gather beneath me.
All gloomy
The east wind drifts and god sends down rain.
Waiting for the divine one, I forget to go home.
The year is late. Who will now bedeck me?"
采三秀兮于山间，石磊磊兮葛蔓蔓。
怨公子兮怅忘归，君思我兮不得闲。
"I pluck the larkspur on the mountain side,
T and the vines tangled.
Complaining of the young lord, sadly I forget to go home.
You, my lord, mu but you are too busy to come,"
山中人兮芳杜若，饮石泉兮荫松柏，
君思我兮然疑作。
The lady in the mountain, fragrant with sweet herb,
Drinks from the rocky spring, shaded by pines and firs.
"You, my lord, are thinking of me, but then you hesitate."
雷填填兮雨冥冥，猨啾啾兮狖夜鸣。
风飒飒兮木萧萧，思公子兮徒离忧。
The thunder rumbles
The gibbons mourn, h
The wind whistles and the trees are bare.
"I am thinki I sorrow in vain."

The Dragon Boat Festival, also called the
Duanwu Festival, is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month according to
the Chinese calendar. For thousands of years, the festival has been marked by
eating zong zi (glutinous rice（糯米）wrapped to form a pyramid using bamboo or reed leaves) and racing
dragon boats.
　　The festival is best known for its dragon-boat races, especially in
the southern provinces where there are many rivers and lakes. This regatta（赛舟会）commemorates
the death of Qu Yuan , an honest minister who is said to have committed suicide
by drowning himself in a river. Qu was a minister of the State of Chu situated
in present-day Hunan and Hubei provinces, during the Warring States
Period(475-221BC)（战国时期）. He was upright, loyal and highly esteemed for his wise counsel
that brought peace and prosperity to the state. However, when a dishonest and
corrupt prince vilified Qu, he was disgraced and dismissed from office. Realizing
that the country was now in the hands of evil and corrupt officials, Qu grabbed
a large stone and leapt into the Miluo River on the fifth day of the fifth
month. Nearby fishermen rushed over to try and save him but were unable to even
recover his body. Thereafter, the state declined and was eventually conquered
by the State of Qin.
　　The people of Chu who mourned the death of Qu threw rice into the
river to feed his ghost every year on the fifth day of the fifth month. But one
year, the spirit of Qu appeared and told the mourners that a hugereptile（爬行动物）in the
river had stolen the rice. The spirit then advised them to wrap the rice in
silk and bind it with five different-colored threads before tossing it into the
　　 During the Duanwu Festival, a glutinous rice pudding called zong zi
is eaten to symbolize the rice offerings to Qu. Ingredients such as beans,lotus
seeds（莲子）,chestnuts（栗子）, pork fat and the golden yolk of a salted duck egg are often added
to the glutinous rice. The pudding is then wrapped with bamboo leaves, bound
with a kind of raffia and boiled in salt water for hours.
　　 & The dragon-boat races symbolize the many attempts to rescue
and recover Qu's body. A typical dragon boat ranges from 50-100 feet in length,
with a beam of about 5.5 feet, accommodating two paddlers seated side by side.
　　A wooden dragon head is attached at the bow, and a dragon tail at
thestern（船尾）. A banner hoisted on a pole is also fastened at the stern and the
hull is decorated with red, green and blue scales edged in gold. In the center
of the boat is a canopied shrine behind which the drummers gong（铜锣）beaters
and cymbal（铙钹）players are seated to set the pace for the paddlers. There are also
men positioned at the bow to set off firecrackers, toss rice into the water and
pretend to be looking for Qu. All of the noise and pageantry creates an
atmosphere of gaiety and excitement for the participants and spectators alike.
The races are held among different clans, villages and organizations, and the
winners are awarded medals, banners, jugs of wine and festive meals.

A Chinese holiday is gaining worldwide popularity 一个逐渐受到全球欢迎的中国节日
Some holidays are so much fun that they catch on outside of their culture. The most obvious example is probably Christmas, which is celebrated around the world by people who aren&t even Christian. Similarly, in recent years, the Dragon Boat Festival has moved beyond China to become an international holiday celebrated by people who may know little about the holiday&s origins。
有些节日实在是很有趣，所以在本土文化以外的地方也很受欢迎。最明显的例子可能就是圣诞节，世界各地的人都会庆祝圣诞节，即使是非基督徒。同样，最近几年端午节已经不局限于中国，成为国际性节日，而庆祝的人可能对节日的由来并不太了解。
The Dragon Boat Festival is one of three major Chinese holidays, along with the Spring and Moon Festivals. Of the three, it is possibly the oldest, dating back to the Warring States Period in 227 B.C. The festival commemorates Qu Yuan, a minister in the service of the Chu Emperor. Despairing over corruption at court, Qu threw himself into a river. Townspeople jumped into their boats and tried in vain to save him. Then, hoping to distract hungry fish from his body, the people scattered rice on the water。
端午节与春节和中秋节并列为中国三大节日。这三个节日中，它可能是最古老的一个，可以追溯到公元前227年的战国时代。这个节日是为了纪念楚国的大夫屈原，他因为对朝廷的贪污腐败感到绝望而投河自尽。镇上的人纷纷冲上船去救他，却没有成功。后来大家把米撒到水里，希望把饥饿的鱼群从他的躯体边引开。
Over the years, the story of Qu&s demise transformed into the traditions of racing dragon boats and eating zongzi & a kind of rice wrapped in bamboo leaves. The races have certainly captured the imagination of people from all over the world. Every spring there are nearly 60 dragon boat races held outside of China in cities from Vancouver to Sydney, from Gdańsk, Poland to Cape Town, South Africa. Canada alone has nearly 50 dragon boat teams and Germany has nearly 30。
多年以后，屈原逝世的故事逐渐演变成赛龙舟和吃粽子(一种包在竹叶中的米食)的传统。这些竞赛显然激起了世界各地人们的想像，每年春天有将近60场龙舟赛在中国境外的城市举办，从温哥华到悉尼，从波兰的格但斯克到南非的开普敦。单单字加拿大就有将近50支龙舟队伍，德国则有近30个。
So what is it about the Dragon Boat Festival that appeals to foreigners? &It&s an unusual sport,& says one racer from Germany. &It&s not like everybody&s doing it. That&s one of the reasons that there&s such great team spirit in a dragon boat team & everybody feels like we&re doing something special。& And what about the zongzi? &Ehhh, they&re not bad, I guess,& he says. &Something of an acquired taste. I just haven&t really acquired it yet。&
那么，为什么端午节赛龙舟会吸引外国人呢？&这是一项不寻常的运动。&一位来自德国的参赛者说，&这并不是所有的人都在从事的运动。这正是龙舟队的团队精神如此高昂的原因之一，每个人都觉得自己在做一件很特别的事。&那么粽子呢？&喔，我觉得它不难吃。&他说，&那是一种需要后天培养的品味。我只是还没培养出来罢了。&
