解题思路： 1．相比于……较晚：可译为later than，如果前后分别处理，单独把“相比于”翻译为compared with，句式则会显得过于复杂。
2．快速的发展：可译为fast development，考虑到第一句已经用过fastest，为了避免译文用词单调，可译为breathtaking development。
3．无论……还是……：本文出现两次，可采用不同的翻译方式。这里可以把前一句处理为简单的并列；把后一句用either…or"连接。
4．代表中国产品的名片：此处翻译时用了介词of来体现“代表”，更加简洁；如译为a business card that represents China’s products则稍显烦琐。
5．重大飞跃：可译为a significant／great leap。>>>立即刷题
