【正确答案】China’s physical culture and sports has undergone several thousand years of development. But it was not until in 1949 when the People’s Republic of China was founded that it was established as one of the state undertakings. The aim of developing physical culture and sports in China is to promote the country’s development in its economy, ethics and culture by popularizing sports among people, strengthening their physiques, improving the sports skills of the country as a whole and creating new records. With the joint efforts of sports workers and athletes, gratifying achievements have been made in physical culture and sports, making China become a sports power and win worldwide respect.

【答案解析】1. 第一句中，“直到1949年……成为一项国家事业”强调的是“1949年”这个时间点，故可用强调句表达。“国家事业”可译为the state undertakings。2. 第二句中的“来促进国家经济、道德和文化的发展”是中国发展体育运动的最终目的。而“扩大……增强……提高……创造……”都只是方式，因此这些方式可用by引导的方式状语来表达。“扩大体育宣传”也就是在人民群众中推广体育，故可译为popularizing sports among people popularize，意为“宣传，推广”。3. 第三句中，翻译“中国的体育运动已经取得了可喜的成绩”时可使用被动语态，译为gratifying achievements have been made in physical culture and sports。4. 第四句“中国已经成为一个体育强国，并且赢得了世界范围的尊重”是第三句中“中国的体育运动已经取得了可喜的成绩”的结果，因此第四句可译成第三句的结果状语。“体育强国”可译为a sports power。
