She has also translated books from other famous Chinese writers, for example, Yu Huas To Live and Su Tongs Wives and Concubines. Chen has won the Swedish Academy Translation Award for her works.

Chen first read Mo Yans novel Red Sorghum in the early 1990s."I read Ge Haowens English translation in a bookstore. I found it interesting so later I bought the Chinese version and tried to translate it. It took me a long time because it was not my professional job. I had to translate it only in my free time, Chen says.

Though Mo Yan wrote the first draft(初稿) of Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out in only 43 days, Chen spent six years translating it.

Chen says her work has opened up a window to the world. She says, Learning_Chinese_has_let_me_love_more_and_more_about_China_and_Chinese_culture."

【题目】A

When you are learning English, you find it not clever to put an English sentence, word for word, into your own language. Take the sentence "How do you do? for example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation? It must be a wrong sentence in your own language.

Languages dont just have different sounds, they are different in many ways. Its important to learn the rules for word order in the study of English, too. If the speakers put words in a wrong order, the listener cant understand the speakers sentence easily. Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence changes. But sometimes the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesnt change. Lets see the difference between the two pairs of sentences.

"She only likes apples.""Only she likes apples.""I have seen the film already.""I have already seen the film."

When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit of the language and use it as the English speaker does.
