Audrey Hepburn, An Elegant Spirit

Although she was never an ardent follower of any formal religion, my mother’s own faith endured throughout her life: her faith in love, her faith in the miracle of nature, and her faith in the goodne of life.She honored this second chance at life at every opportunity that presented itself and most of all at the end of her life, through her work for UNICEF.Sometimes a near-death experience can free us of the shackles that life slowly trains us to wear.We come to realize what’s worth the sweat and what isn’t.Although she had no memory of her childhood near-death experience, the knowledge of it, coupled with the fertile ground of an already self-effacing nature, were the roots of the humility that graced her entire life.I never heard her say, “I did this,” or “I’ve done that.” Toward the end of her life, throughout the UNICEF years, I would hear her say regularly, as the world listened to her, “I can do very little.” I never heard her say that she liked any of her performances.When people complimented her, she would always shy away and ultimately explain how those who surrounded her were the reason for her succe.Beie Anderson Stanley wrote, “To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition, to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived, this is to have succeeded.”

By Ms.Stanley’s standards, my mother’s life was a succe: She was graced with good choices.The first choice she made was her career.Then she chose her family.And when we, her children, were grown and had started our lives, she chose the le fortunate children of the world.She chose to give back.In that important choice lay the key to healing and understanding something that had affected her throughout her entire life: the sadne that had always been there.Her choices healed the sadne of a little girl who didn’t know her father for most of her life and yet who yearned and longed for that warm embrace, that reaurance that you are loved and that you matter.When I look back, that is just what she gave to Luca and me: the reaurance that we were loved and that we mattered.This was the most valuable eence, the roots that live and grow forever inside you.She truly was a wonderful mother and friend.二、将下列短文译成英语（50分）: 2008年5月12日14时28分，我国发生了震惊世界的四川汶川特大地震，受灾地区人民生命财产和经济社会发展蒙受巨大损失。面对空前惨烈的灾难，在党中央、国务院和中央军委坚强领导下，全党全军全国各族人民众志成城、迎难而上，以惊人的意志、勇气、力量，组织开展了我国历史上救援速度最快、动员范围最广、投入力量最大的抗震救灾斗争，最大限度地挽救了受灾群众生命，最大限度地减低了灾害造成的损失，夺取了抗震救灾斗争重大胜利，表现出泰山压顶不弯腰的大无畏气概，谱写了感天动地的英雄凯歌。
