Mr. He also argues that translation is a process of educating oneself. You gain a better understanding of the original text after you have translated it. "When you read a book and something comes across as vague, you might just let it go. However, when you're translating, there's no way you can remove the sentence. You've got to think deeply and figure out its meaning. This is how you learn through translating." [Photo by Chen Boyuan/China.org.cn]
