Jane Goodall is a famous scientist.For more than 40 years,Goodall lived mostly in Tanzania in East Africa,studying chimpanzees.

As a young child,Jane Goodall was interested in animals. She grew up in the English countryside and was always climbing trees or riding horses.

When Jane was 23,she got a chance to go to Africa.Even though she had never been to college,she got a job with a famous scientist named Louis Leakey.

One day Louis Leakey said he needed a volunteer. He needed someone to go to a lake in Tanzania to study a kind of chimpanzees. Jane was excited.

On July 16,1960, she began her exploration(探索).At first,the chimpanzees ran away from Jane. But with time passing,they got used to her being around.

Every day,Jane would follow the chimpanzees,taking notes on their behavior. She learned many new things about chimpanzees. She watched how a chimpanzee made a tool. She learned how some chimpanzees became good leaders. She watched how mother chimpanzees raised their children. She watched animals get angry and get upset.

Chinese writer Mo Yan is famous all over the world, but do you know Anna Gustafsson Chen, his Swedish translator (翻譯家)?

Chen was born in 1965 in Sweden. She started learning Chinese at a very young age. Now she is quite good at Chinese. She has been translating (翻譯) Chinese books into Swedish for more than 20 years. By the year of 2012, she had translated 20 Chinese novels (小說(shuō)). She has finished translating Mo Yan’s Red Sorghum, The Garlic Ballads and Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out. She has also translated books from other famous Chinese writers, for example, Yu Hua’s To Live and Su Tong’s Wives and Concubines. Chen has won the Swedish Academy Translation Award for her work. 

Chen first read Mo Yan’s novel Red Sorghum in the early 1990s. “I read Ge Haowen’s English translation in a bookstore. I found the book was so interesting that later I bought the Chinese version and tried to translate it myself. It took me a long time, because it was not my professional job. I had to translate it only in my free time,” Chen says.

Though Mo Yan wrote the first draft (初稿) of Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out in only 43 days, Chen spent six years translating it.

Chen says her work has opened up a window to the world. She says, “Learning Chinese has let me love more and more about China and Chinese culture.
