　　《三十六計》***Thirty-Six Stratagems ***是有關戰術的古書。三十六計按照計謀名稱排列，共有六類。書中計謀的名稱有不同的起源，有些源自歷史故事，如“圍魏救趙”;有些源自古代軍事術語，如“聲東擊西”;有些源自習語，如“指桑罵槐”。 每個計謀都帶有解釋和說明。註釋多引自宋朝以前戰爭的激烈言論，也有些引自古代著名謀略家的名言。《三十六計》創作完成後被大眾廣泛閱讀，“三十六計，走為上計”的說法也被經常使用。

　　【翻譯原文】

　　儒家學派***Confucianism***認為婚姻對家庭和社會都有重大意義。對於家庭，婚姻能將不同姓氏的家庭聚在一起，延續相關家族的家庭生活。對於社會，夫妻是人口的基本單位，婚姻有時能影響到國家的政治穩定和國際關係。從儒家思想來看， 婚姻的目的之一是培養美德。一夫一妻制***monogamy***的觀念根深蒂固，中國人明白婚姻應該建立在愛情的基礎上。出於孝***filial piety***與禮***propriety***的觀念，婚姻成了昂貴的儀式，被認為僅次於葬禮。聘媒人***matchmaker***可以確保丈夫和妻子彼此般配，但主要是為了家庭的最大利益。

　　【參考譯文】

　　To the Confucians, marriage is of great importance to both family and the society. As for family, marriage can bring families of different surnames together, and continue the family life of the concerned clans. Socially, a married couple is the basic unit of the population;sometimes marriages can even affect the country's political stability and international relations. From the perspective of Confucianism, one purpose of marriage is to cultivate virtue.The Chinese have seen that marriage should be founded on love since the concept of monogamy is deeply rooted in their mindset. Due to the concept of filial piety and propriety, marriage has become a costly affair and been seen as second only to funeral ceremonies. The employ of a matchmaker can ensure that the husband and wife are compatible with each other,but primarily work in the families'best interests.


 

　　【翻譯原文】

　　中國最早的文字主要是商朝時期刻在龜殼或獸骨上的甲骨文***Jiaguwen***。1899年，商朝的甲骨文碑文***inscriptions***在商朝晚期的都城河南安陽被發現。迄今為止，安陽共出土了10萬多個龜殼和獸骨;龜殼和獸骨上發現的漢字約有4500個，其中1700個已得到確認。這為我們研究漢字起源提供了重要素材。過去，人們普遍認為商朝的甲骨文是最早的漢字。但是，20世紀80年代在西安郊區發現了一些刻有文字的龜殼和獸骨。考古學家證實這些漢字約產生於4000多年以前，比甲骨文還早。

　　【參考譯文】

　　The earliest characters once existed in China are Jiaguwen carved on tortoise shells or animal bones, mainly during the Shang Dynasty. In 1899，the inscriptions of the Shang Dynasty's Jiaguwen were detected in Anyang of Henan Province which was the capital in the late Shang Dynasty. So far, altogether more than 100,000 pieces of tortoise shells and animal bones have been unearthed from Anyang;about 4,500 Chinese characters have been found on the tortoise shells and animal bones, among which 1,700 have been confirmed.These are very important materials for us to research into the origin of Chinese characters. In the past, people generally considered Jiaguwen of the Shang Dynasty as the earliest Chinese characters. But in 1980s, some other tortoise shells and animal bones carved with characters were found in the suburb of Xi'an. Archaeologists made sure that these characters were about 4,000 years ago, even earlier than Jiaguwen.
