If TCM is accepted on the UNESCO list, doctors and practitioners would advocate both its advantages and its legal status abroad. The theories and experiences of old TCM practitioners would continue to be collected, and treatment would be extended into other areas of medicine, such as research into the AIDS virus and malaria. But some people feel that there needs to be a compromise between the term “heritage” which suggests something oldfashioned， and the fact that TCM is still developing as a medical science.MidAutumn celebrations reflect Chinese cultural traditions. With more than 50 million Chinese living and working overseas， the MidAutumn Festival reminds them of their Chinese origins and would help to unite Chinese people all over the world. Plans for a seminar of experts on the festival have been announced, which will recommend symbolic ambassadors to promote the bid.application n申请highlight v突出第一个that引导同位语从句，解释说明fact的内容；第二个that引导定语从句，修饰culture。practitioner/prktIn/ n(尤指医学或法律界的)从业人员advocate/dvkeIt/ v主张，拥护status/steIts/ n法律地位be extended into延伸到research into 方面的研究virus/vaIrs/ n病毒malaria/mleri/ n疟疾there needs to be .需要有compromise/kmprmaIz/ n折中；妥协compromise between . and .在和之间折中which引导定语从句，修饰heritage。oldfashioned adj.过时的that引导同位语从句，解释说明fact的具体内容。reflect v反映，映出“with名词现在分词”是with复合结构的一种形式。overseas adv.向海外，在国外remind sb. of sth.使某人想起remind sb. to do sth.提醒某人做某事origin n起源unite v团结seminar/semIn/ n讨论课，研讨会which引导非限制性定语从句，修饰plans。symbolic ambassador形象大使promote v推动，促进第56段译文对中国传统中医的申请会突显这一事实传统的中医是一种已经存在几千年的文化。如果中国传统中医被列入联合国教科文组织的名录中，那么医生和中医从业者就能在海外宣传其好处和合法地位。老中医的理论和经历将会继续被收集而且其治疗范围将延伸到医学的其他领域，比如对艾滋病病毒和疟疾的研究。不过“遗产”表明某事物过时了，但事实上中医作为一种医药科学仍在发展着。有些人感觉两者之间要有个折中。中秋节庆祝活动反映了中国文化传统。有五千多万中国人在海外生活和工作，中秋节使他们想起自己的中国血统并有助于团结全世界的中国人。中国已宣布计划成立一个中秋节专家研讨会，还会派出形象大使去推动这一申请。Other examples of Chinas intangible cultural heritage include the ancient art of Shaolin kung fu, the worlds longest epic poem of Tibetan King Gesser, and Chenstyle Tai Chi.,epic/epIk/ n史诗，叙事诗agenda/dend/ n(事项)待办；待讨论act as起作用两个which引导限制性定语从句，分别修饰sites和cultural activities。UNESCOs agenda for the worlds tangible and intangible heritage is also to act as a warning system for sites which are at the mercy of redevelopment， pollution or even the effects of tourism, and cultural activities which are in danger. UNESCO undertakes to take sites off the World Heritage list if their present state is threatened by an absence of protection.Getting accepted on the list is the result not simply of a subjective recommendation by interested groups, but of cultural diplomacy by governments and a thorough understanding of the bureaucratic system of UNESCO. In return， UNESCO recognises the autonomy of provincial, federal and state cultural organisations, but offers support and guidancewhen requested.mercy/msi/ n任凭的摆布at the mercy of受支配redevelopment n改造；重新建设undertake/ndteIk/ v许诺做某事；同意做某事take . off去掉，清除threaten v威胁absence/bsns/ n缺乏；没有动名词短语getting accepted on the list作主语。subjective/sbdektIv/ adj.主观的recommendation n推荐not . but .不是而是diplomacy/dIplms
