真題一
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。最後一點，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，並對他們表本最大的敬意。

Don’t touch someone unless you absolutely have lly, from the perspectiveof Confucianism, the elders are to be respected in every situation by those who are should always acknowledge the elders first,and show the most respect to them.
真題二
中文熱詞通常反映社會變化和文化，有些在外國媒體上愈來愈流行。例如，土豪(tuhao)和大媽(dama)都是老詞，但是已獲取了新的意義。 土豪以前指欺壓佃戶和僕人的鄉村地主，現在用於指花錢如流水或者喜歡炫耀財富的人，也就是說，土豪有錢，但沒有品位。大媽是對中年婦女的稱呼，但現在特指不久前金價下跌時大量購買黃精的中國婦女。 土豪和大媽可能會被人收入新版牛津(Oxford)英語詞典，至今已有約120箇中文詞被加進了牛津英語詞典，成為了英語語言的一部分。
譯文
The Chinese heated words usually reflectsocial changes and culture, some of which are increasingly popular with foreignmedia. Tuhao and dama, for example, are both old words, but they get differentmeanings now。
The word tuhao used to mean rural landlordswho oppress their tenants and servants, while now it refers to people spendingmoney without limits or those showing off all around. That is to say, tuhaoowns money rather than taste. The word dama is used to describe middle-agedwomen. However, it is regarded as a special word to call those Chinese womenwho rushed to purchase gold when the gold price decreased sharply not long ago。
Tuhaoand dama may be included in the new Oxford dictionary. Up to now, about 120Chinese words have been listed in it and became part of the English language.
