Directions: In this section, you will hear two long conversations. At the end of each conversation, you will hear four questions. Both the conversation and the questions will be spoken only once.

4.第四句首先概括“荷花具有多种功能”,接下来具体介绍各种功能,因此可以拆译为两句。第二句可使用not only...but also...结构,当not only位于句首时,它所在的分句要使用部分倒装。
5.第五句较长,可以拆译为两句。“迎骄阳而不惧,出污泥而不染”是荷花“象征纯洁、高雅”以及“常常用来比喻人的高尚品德”的原因。因此,两句话可用so或therefore衔接。
6.第六句中,“荷花盛开的”用来修饰“地方”,因此可译为where引导的定语从句。“经常光顾之地”即“经常光顾的地方”,可以译作a place (that is) frequented by...。
