　　3.第4句中的“但口头文学很丰富，有许多神话、传说和民歌”中“……很丰富”可用短语sth. be rich来表达，“有许多神话、传说和民歌”用介词短语with many myths, legends...译出。

　　4.最后一句“高山族人还非常喜欢雕刻，刻得最多的是蛇身人首的图像”可用并列结构译作The Gaoshanpeople are also fond of... and the most carved images are those with...。 “图像”的定语“蛇身人首的” 较长，故将其处理为后置定语，用介词短语with human heads and snake bodies来表达。
