II. Passage Translation
1. Translate the following passage into Chinese (60 points)
. The first of our society is a gentleman of Worcestershire, of ancient descent, a baronet, his name Sir Eoger de Coverley. His great-grandfather was inventor of that famous country-dance which is called after him. All who know that shire are very well acquainted with the parts and merits of Sir Eoger. He is a gentleman that is very singular in his behaviour, but his singularities proceed from his good sense, and are contradictions to the manners of the world only as he thinks the world is injjhe wrong.
However, this humour creates him no enemies, for he does nothing with sourness or obstinacy; and his being unconfmed to modes and forms makes him but the readier and more capable to please and oblige all who know him. When he is in town, he lives in Soho Square. It is said he keeps himself a bachelor by reason he was crossed in love by a perverse beautiful widow of the next county to him. Before this disappointment, Sir Eoger was what you call a fine gentleman, had often supped with my Lord Eochester and Sir George Etherege, fought a duel upon his first coming to town, and kicked Bully Dawson in a public coffee-house for calling him youngster. But heing ill used by the above mentioned widow, he was very serious for a year and a half; and though, his temper being naturally jovial, he at last got over it, he grew careless of himself, and never dressed afterwards. He continues to wear a coat and doublet of the same cut that were in fashion at the time of his repulse, which, in his merry humours, he tells us, has been in and out twelve times since he first wore it. He is now in his Fifty-sixth Year, cheerful, gay, and hearty, keeps a good House in both Town and Country ; a great Lover of Mankind ; but there is such a mirthful Cast in his Behaviour, that he is rather beloved than esteemed.

今年初，我曾經講過，今年恐怕是中國經濟最爲困難的.一年。我國遭受了嚴重的雨雪冰凍災害和特大地震災害，又面臨國內外複雜多變的環境。我們克服重重困難，保持了經濟平穩較快發展的態勢。上半年國內生產總值同比增長10.4%;農業發展勢頭良好，夏糧連續五年增產;投資、消費、出口三大需求增長趨向均衡，經濟發展協調性增強;產業結構調整加快，節能減排取得明顯成效，財政收入和企業利潤保持較快增長，發展質量和效益進一步提高;城鎮就業持續增加，城鄉居民收入繼續提高;近幾個月來，居民消費價格指數漲幅逐月回落。總的看，中國經濟發展的基本面沒有改變，正朝着宏觀調控的預期方向發展。
