Directions: Translate the following passage into English and write your version in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.

舒舍予，字老舍，現(xiàn)年四十歲，面黃無須，生于北平，三歲失怙，可謂無父，志學(xué)之年，帝王不存，可謂無君，無父無君，特別孝愛老母。幼讀三百篇，不求甚解。繼學(xué)師范，遂奠教書匠之基，及壯，糊口四方，教書偉業(yè)。甚難發(fā)財(cái)，每購獎(jiǎng)券，以得末獎(jiǎng)為榮，示甘為寒賤也。二十七歲，發(fā)憤著書，科學(xué)哲學(xué)無所終，故寫小說，博大家一笑，沒什么了不得。三十四歲結(jié)婚，今已有一男一女，均狡猾可喜。書無所不讀，全無所惑，并不著急，教書做事，均甚認(rèn)真，往往吃虧，也不后悔。再活四十年，也許能有點(diǎn)出息。

譯文：

Originally named as Shu Sheyu, I styled myself Lao She//write under the pseudonym of Lao She. Forty years old, I have a sallow/withered complexion with no beard. Born in Beiping (now Beijing), I am fatherless, since my father died when I was three//I lost my father at the age of three. I don’t have an emperor, for the dynasty collapsed//the emperor was dethroned when I was 15. Without father and emperor, I was particularly filial and respectful to my elderly mother. Reading superficially though extensively from childhood, I have laid a solid foundation for teaching after studying at a normal university. During my prime of life//In my prime years, I scraped my living and made teaching my career. Awkward at getting rich, I took it as an honor to win the lowest prize when buying lotteries. I had preference to humbleness. When 27, I resolved to write books in consequence of no achievements in science and philosophy. Thus, I began to write fictions to amuse readers, which is not worth mentioning. Getting married when 34, I have both a son and a daughter, who are naughty and cute/mischievous/lovable. Not vexed by reading futilely though comprehensively, I dealt seriously with teaching and handling affairs with no regret for suffering losses. Another 40 years will bring me more prospects.
