        Drop by drop the oceans are filled; stone by stone the walls are built(滴水汇大海，垒石筑高墙). 2008 is an unusual year for China, which sees too many challenges for China and its great people: snow disaster, extreme religious power at Xinjiang and Tibet Autonomous Religion, earthquakes of Wenchuan. However, none of these disasters overthrow the Great Wall. Facing great difficulties, the Yangtse River and the Huanghe River still wind their glorious ways forward. Each day brings its own bread. We are sure China’s tomorrow will be better!

It means everyday is a new day.
We could make our way to get through the disaster.

Thank harrybond!

but could you explain this sentence for me?
Each day brings its own bread.

We often use "Each day brings its own bread" to express the meaning "天无绝人之路".
Welcome joining in the discussion.

benchren

so "Each day brings its own bread."means "We could make our way to get through the disaster."right?

修改得好,高学历确实高人一等啊.

1.snow disaster, 2.extreme religious power at Xinjiang and Tibet Autonomous Religion, 3.earthquakes of Wenchuan.三者并列,前两者之间用逗号,后两者之间应用and连接.

Tibet Autonomous Religion [Region], 既然把Religion 换成Region,是不是Autonomous 也可以去掉?或者干脆只保留Tibet ,道理同:For concordance with the following name.

虽然汉语中的"江""河"等同于英语中的River,那是不是说Chang Jiang 和Huang He后面就不能加River呢?当然Yangtse应该改为Chang Jiang .

请指教.

大汗，兄可千万别这么说，我万万担当不起。写东西难免有些笔误，再说我只是斗胆讨论一下，肯定说得也有不对的地方。

我觉得这些小地方，涂兄可能只是笔误而已。

Autonomous Region是自治区，这个很可能是笔误。

长江、黄河对举，文气更顺畅一些，没有别的意思。

长江的“别名”参见：

黄河：

谢谢.
yellow river 是通用的英译,按照这样的惯例,长江岂不是要译成long river?我没听过,好像没有人这样译过(语言也要约定俗成啊),于是我想会不会跟Qinghai Lake一样把长江的拼音作为名字再加上river?所以提出来让您解答.

给你这么一问，还真有问题。对这方面的规范我不懂，不敢乱说。“中华人民共和国水利部”网站上有这样一个表，可供参考：

谢谢白马兄又找到有用的资料，让俺长了见识。学无止境，何况俺是半路出家教小学英语。
一切皆有可能，规范应该有，可是与规范抵触的从来就不会销声匿迹，汉语不也是如此吗？
