March 8 is International Women's Day. In China, we say women "hold up half the sky". In Chinese myth, a goddess named Nv Wa amended the broken sky and created human beings. And the moon, water, flowers, cats and snakes are connected with women. They symbolize the softness, beauty and wittiness of women. 今天是国际妇女节。我国素有“妇女能顶半边天”之语。神话故事里也有女娲补天造人的传说。女性还常被人与月亮、水、花儿、猫、蛇等物象联系在一起,象征温柔、美丽、智慧等寓意。 With multi-identities in modern society, women are not only mothers and wives who take care of their families, but also doctors, scientists and teachers. 在现代社会,女性也正在扮演多重角色,除了传统顾家的母亲、妻子,还在医生、科学家、教师等领域发光发热。 We chose five prominent women in recent years whose achievements encourage more young women to pursue their dreams. 今天我们就为大家介绍五位当代著名的杰出女性。她们的成就也激励着更多年轻女性去追逐自己的梦想。 |
