53、但是中美经贸合作的总体发展是不可逆转的。主要有两 个原因， 其一：中美贸易具有很大互补性。其二：中国产品具有明显的劳动力成本优势。参考译文： As for China-US trade, mutually beneficial and win-win trade and economic ties have delivered tangible economic benefits to the two peoples.

At the same time, many Chinese commodities have become favored choices of American consumers. Meanwhile, the number of Chinese-invested enterprises in the United Sate

55、s has surpassed 1,000. We predict that trade disputes between China and the United States will become more acute along with the further development in bilateral trade and economic cooperation. The overall development in bilateral trade and economic cooperation is, however, irreversible. There are tw

59、e the attractive alternatives offered to people. But ecotourism means more than just traveling to remote destinations. It also emphasizes educating visitors about local conditions and customs, as well as cultural heritage.4. 中国动画业中国的电影市场一直在髙速发展，但是动画业(animation industry )却不尽如人意。去年有 33 部动画电影发行，但没有一部票房( box office )喜人。原因有以下几点：一是投入 少。一部好莱坞动画电影在放映和电影特技上的花费要超过其一半的预算。 但在中国， 这些通常只占 10%。二是故事情节单一。目前中国很难有超过1 亿票房的动画电影。内部人士称 电影情节无趣是票房过低的罪魁祸首。此外，薪酬较低，要找一个好编剧( scriptwriter ) 也 很困
