In recent years, a growing number of Chinese books and movies have been translated into other languages. Many of the translators are young people who are interested in learning Chinese culture.
Anna Holmwood is one of them. Before she translated in Yong’s novel Legends of the Condor Heroes(《射雕英雄传》), the writer was little known to English readers. One reason for this is that his works were too difficult to translate.
But Anna managed to do it. Attracted by the book’s themes as well as Chinese philosophy(哲学), Anna hoped to bring it to Englishmen. After five years of work, the translated book came out in 2018. It was printed seven times in several months in the UK. Many people think Anna did a good job of explaining things that are “untranslatable”.
Learning history at the University of Oxford, Anna began to learn Chinese at 21 after a trip in China. She calls herself “a clumsy(笨拙的) student, just like Guo Jing, but with a truthful heart”.
As more young people learn to translate Chinese texts and films, more Chinese stories will become available to the world.

On March 30, Yoshiro Mori, the head of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics Organizing Committee (委员会), said that the Summer Olympic Games in Japan would be held on July 24th according to the plan. However, it is changed to open on July 23rd next year due to COVID-19.
Its mascot (吉祥物) called Miraitowa is a blue robot full of sense of future. The delay(推迟) of the 32nd Olympic Games in Tokyo, the first city in Asia to hold the Games, will cost "several hundred million dollars," said Thomas Bach, president of the International Olympic Committee.
One main loss (损失) caused by the delay is tourism (旅游业), which is an in part for Japan. There are 7,800,000 tickets for the Olympics, many of which have all ready been sold. But because of the delay, many tourists may decide to cancel their trips.

One day, when listening to a minister's report Zhao noticed that many ministers were whispering (耳语) to each other and not respecting(尊重) rules. 3. He required that wings should be added to the ministers' hats.

Inspiration can be a strange thing. You never know when it might hit. And sometimes, it can come from the most unexpected places.
I recently read about an author(作家) named Okorafor. When she was in college, she had a serious spine disorder(脊椎病). Okorafor was told that a simple operation(手术) could fix it.
But when she woke up from her operation, she found that she couldn't move her legs and was in great pain.
Okorafor got well later. But before she did, she saw strange things in her hospital room.
She imagined her pain as a beast(野兽)that hunted her from the shadows. But she also imagined a woman-a woman who could fly, in fact. This magical woman inspired her and helped her forget her pain. "I felt greater than myself. I felt myself become greater," she wrote in her book Broken Places & Outer Spaces: Finding Creativity in the Unexpected.
We never know where we might find the inspiration to create. As a musician, most of my inspiration comes from other people's music. But I also find ideas in other places. Books, movies and even just moments in everyday life can lead to new creations.
For example, I recently watched the film Blade Runner. I've seen it plenty of times before; it's one of my favorite movies. But this time, for some reason, I saw it differently. I decided to make music that could create the same feeling as the film. It's not done yet, but the movie's setting and characters impacted the music I'm working on now heavily.
Anything can inspire us. You just have to be ready to catch inspiration when it hits.
