话题材料： 请将下面这段话翻译成英文：
中国人对龙的理解与西方人不一样。龙是帝王的象征。帝王的子孙被称为“龙 种”，帝王的用品也常常被加上“龙”字，如“龙袍”、“龙椅”等，连帝王的面色也被 称为“龙颜”。龙也是杰出人物的象征，汉语中有“卧虎藏龙”、“乘龙快婿”等。同时，龙也是一种祥瑞(auspicious)之物。因此，人们希望它能留在自己的家里，保 佑自己家里一切平安，万事如意。每到舞龙灯(dragondance)的时节，人们会请人 到家里来舞一回。又因龙呈威猛之相，故也有龙舟(dragonboat)驱鬼辟邪的说法。 参考译文:
Chinese people's understanding of dragon isdifferent from that of Westerners.Dragon is thesymbol of emperors. The descendants of emperorsare called “children of the dragon”. The objects usedby emperors are also usually named with the word“dragon”，such as “dragon robes' “dragon chairs' Even the face of the emperor is called“dragon face”. Dragon also symbolizes outstanding people. In Chinese, there are “crouchingtiger, hidden dragon”，“a proud son-in-law” and so on. Meanwhile, dragon is also anauspicious sign. Therefore, people hope that dragon can stay in their homes to bless familymembers, thus everyone can be healthy and everything can go well. When it comes to dragondance time, people will invite performers to perform in their own homes. As dragon appearsawe-inspiring and fierce, it is said that dragon boat can drive ghosts away and avoid the evil.

6.呈威猛之相:可译为appear awe-inspiring and fierce,其中“呈......之相”即“呈现......的相貌”之意，译为appear, “威猛”即“威严凶猛”，译为awe-inspiring and fierce。
