【正确答案】：
参考译文:
    QIXI FESTIVAL, OR DOUBLE SEVENTH FESTIVAL, IS CELEBRATED IN CHINA ON THE SEVENTH DAY OF THE SEVENTH MONTH ON THE CHINESE LUNAR CALENDAR. IT IS A FESTIVAL TO COMMEMORATE THE ROMANCE OF NIULANG (THE HERD-BOY) AND ZHINU (THE WEAVING-GIRL) IN A CHINESE MYTH. LEGEND HAS IT THAT NIULANG, A PLAIN AND KIND-HEARTED HERD-BOY, FELL IN LOVE WITH ZHINU, A VIRTUOUS AND BEAUTIFUL FAIRY FROM HEAVEN, AND THEN THEY HAD A BOY AND A GIRL. UNFORTUNATELY, ZHINU, WHO HAD COME DOWN TO THE EARTH SECRETLY, WAS TAKEN BACK AND WAS ONLY ALLOWED TO MEET NIULANG ON THE SEVENTH DAY OF THE SEVENTH LUNAR MONTH EACH YEAR AS A PUNISHMENT FOR HER VIOLATION OF HEAVEN'S RULES. NOW, THIS DAY IS SOMEHOW ENDOWED WITH THE MEANING OF TRUE LOVE. THEREFORE, IT IS ALSO KNOWN AS CHINA'S VALENTINE'S DAY.
【题目解析】：第一句：农历七月初七：the seventh day of the seventh month on the Chinese lunar calendar / the seventh day of the seventh lunar month；七夕节：Qixi Festival / Double Seventh Festival；过(庆祝)：celebrate。第二句：纪念：commemorate；浪漫爱情：romance；(中国)神话故事：Chinese myth。第三句：相传…：legend has it that …，此处为it作形式宾语，替代that后的宾语从句；纯朴的：plain；善良的：kind-hearted；放牛娃：the Herd-boy；织女：the Weaving-girl；漂亮的：beautiful；贤惠的(品德高尚的)：virtuous；仙女：fairy。第四句：相亲相爱(爱上…)：fall in love with …，此处翻译时可调整语序，将原文第三句和第四句整合为一句，“相亲相爱”作谓语，“牛郎”作主语，“织女”作宾语；育有：have。第五句：私自下凡：come down to the earth secretly，此处“私自下凡”可理解为“秘密地从天庭下来，来到人间”；违反天规：violation of Heaven's rules，此处“违反天规”为原因状语，可译为for的介词短语，故将动词短语转换成名词短语；召回天庭：be taken back (to Heaven)，此处“召回天庭”可理解为“被带回天庭”，其中“回到天庭”可省略；被允许…：be allowed to do sth，此处“每年只有在农历七月初七才被允许与牛郎相会”实质上是对牛郎织女的惩罚，故需增译as a punishment“作为惩罚”。第六句：被赋予…：be endowed with sth；伟大爱情色彩：the meaning of true love，此处“伟大的爱情”含义上等同于“真爱”；被视为…：be known as sth。
