Ⅶ．Translation from English into Chinese (15 points) 将下列短文译成汉语并将答案写在答题纸上。 Books are to mankind what memory is to the individual. They contain the history of our race, the discoveries we have made, the accumulated knowledge and experience of ages．They picture for us the marvels and beauties of nature, help us out of difficulty, comfort us in sorrow, change hours of tiredness into moments of delight, fill our minds with good ideas and happy thoughts, and lift us out of and above ourselves. And also, books can help transport us to mountains or the seashore, and visit the most beautiful parts of the earth, without fatigue, inconvenience, or expense. In a sense they give us an even more vivid idea than the actual reality. So, precious and priceless are the blessings which the books scatter around our daily paths．We walk, in imagination, with noblest spirits, through the most fascinating regions.
书籍之于人类犹如记忆之于个人。它们记载了我们人类的历史和迄今的发现，还有各个时代积累下来的知识和经验；它们向我们描述出自然界的奇妙和美丽。当我们身处困境时，它们给我们帮助；当我们受难哀伤时，它们给我们以慰藉；当我们困倦疲惫时，它们让我们快乐起来。书籍还能充实我们的头脑，使其充满美好，快乐的思想，帮助我们走出和超越自我。此外，无需付出体力和财力，书籍还能方便的把我们带到山上或海边，去观看地球上最美丽的部分。从某种程度上来说，书籍带给我们的生动想法比现实更加美好。所以书籍给我们日常生活轨迹中播种的快乐是珍贵无价的。我们能够在想象中与最高贵的人们同行，走过极乐的仙境
