　　第三句：

　　传说中国古代哲学家墨子用了三年时间在潍坊制作了世界上首个风筝，但放飞的第一天风筝就坠落并摔坏了。

　　词汇：中国古代哲学家： one of the philosophers in ancient China

　　词汇：摔坏 crash, 就仿佛air crash

　　句型“传说……”: 可用It is said that …. 由于第四句中又是“也有人相信……”。所以，第三句和第四句可综合起来使用句型：It is said by some people that …. It is also believed by others that …. 其中，副词also起到串接两个句子的功用。

　　考生往往忽略的要点：本句中，传说内容有二，一是”墨子制作”，二是”风筝摔落”。所以，在It is said 句型后，需要使用两个连词that： It is said by some people that …, and that …. (其中，第二个连词that必不可少。)

　　注意全句的时态。

　　全句翻译：It is said by some people that Motse one of the philosophers in ancient China spent three years in making the first kite in the world, and that the kite he made crashed the first day it flew in the sky.

　　第四句：

　　也有人相信风筝是中国古代木匠鲁班发明的。据说他的风筝用木头和竹子制作，飞了三天后才落地。

　　考生往往忽略的要点：本句中的传说内容也有二：一是”鲁班发明”，二是”风筝飞了三天”。所以，和第三句一样，这里也需要两个连词that：It is believed by others that …, and that …. (其中，第二个连词that必不可少。)

　　词汇：木匠: carpenter

　　词汇：用木头和竹子制作：be made of wood and bamboo

　　词汇：飞了三天：fly for three days

　　词汇：落地：land on the ground

　　全句翻译：It is also believed by others that Luban the greatest carpenter in ancient China invented the kite, and that his kite made of wood and bamboo flew for three days before it landed on the ground.
