【正确答案】正确答案： On the 11th day of November, Singles Day is a special occasion in China. As the name indicates, this Day is the one exclusively for people who are still living single lives. The main way to celebrate Singles Day is to have dinner with single friends. People also hold "blind date" parties in an attempt to say goodbye to their single lives. In addition to the meaning of "being single", the four "l"s of the date also suggest "the only one". Therefore, the Singles Day also serves as a good day for some people to express their love. Some people choose to marry on this day as well.

【答案解析】解析：1．第1句如果逐字对译为November 11 is China's special Singles Day则略显生硬，更流畅的表达是用“光棍节”作主语，时间“11月11日”处理成时间状语on the 11th day of November。译文中使用occasion是为了避免重复使用day。 2．第2句中的“这个节日是专门为……设立的”中的动词“(为谁)设立”用介词for就能达意，属于“动词转换为介词”的译法，符合英文多用介词的特点。 3．第4句中的“想藉此来”表示目的，用介词短语in an attempt to表达，简洁明了。 4．倒数第2句中的“所以这一天也成了一些人的爱情告白日”表结果，语义较为独立，故译成一个独立的句子，并用Therefore连接，使语义更紧凑。并将“爱情告白”转换为目的状语to express their love，使译文行文更符合英语表达习惯。
