【翻译原文】
中国古代四大发明(the Four Great Inventions)—造纸术、火药、印刷术、指南针对全世界产生了巨大而深远的影响。纸张的发明大大促进了文明的传播与发展。火药的发明非常偶然，炼丹师(alchemist)在制作长生不老药(elixir)的时候偶然制成了火药。唐代末期，火药被用于战争，13世纪时传到了全世界。在唐代印刷术的基础上，北宋毕昇发明了活字印刷术(movable-type printing),开启了印刷史上的伟大革命。中国古人利用天然磁石制成了第一台可以辨别方向的指南针，大大增强了船只的远航能力。

Papermaking, gunpowder, printing and compass are the Four Great Inventions of ancient China that have exerted a great and far-reaching impact on the entire world. The invention of paper greatly contributed to the spread and development of civilization. The birth of gunpowder was quite accidental. It was invented inadvertently by alchemists while attempting to make an elixir. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, gunpowder was used in military affairs, and was spread to all over the world in the 13th century. On the basis of printing in the Tang Dynasty, BiSheng in the Northern Song Dynasty invented the movable-type printing, which lauched a great revolution in the history of printing.Natural magnets were made into the first direction-finding compass by ancient Chinese people, which greatly improved a ship's ability to navigate over long distances.

丝绸之路(the Silk Road)不仅是古代重要的贸易通道，也是一座连接中西方文化的桥梁。通过丝绸之路，中国的四大发明传到了西方，而西方的宗教信仰也传到了中国。自从汉朝张骞开辟了举世闻名的丝绸之路，到元朝的灭亡，它大约经历了1600年的历史。丝绸之路起始于长安，穿过河西走廊(Hexi Corridor)，到达敦煌，在那里丝绸之路被分成了三条线路—南线、中线和北线。这三条线路遍及新疆维吾尔自治区(Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region)，并向外延伸，扩展到了巴基斯坦、印度，甚至罗马。

唐朝(the Tang Dynasty)是中国历史上统一时间最长，国力最强盛的朝代之一。唐朝全盛时期在文化，科技，政治，经济，外交等方面都取得了很高的成就。中国历史上有大量的科技发明，四大发明中有两个，即火药和活字印刷(movable-type printing),都诞生于唐朝。这一时期文学发展达到高峰，其中诗歌最为兴盛，唐诗至今仍家喻户晓。海外的华侨华人往往称自己是“唐人”，他们聚居的地方便被称为“唐人街”。每逢春节，这里都要耍龙灯(dragon-lantern show),舞狮子，仍然保留着中国的传统风俗。
