	Language is a cultural carrier as well as an important means of understanding specific ethnic and national cultures. Each country’s language contains more or less culture-loaded words, and the connotation of these words differs from people’s general cognition of them in the context of globalization, reflecting their own unique culture, national color, and historical context. Because each nation has its own development history, social system, ecological environment, religious beliefs, and so on, the language will inevitably derive a large number of words, allusions, and idioms condensing the national historical and cultural characteristics during the development process of history. With five-thousand-year-long history, Chinese has amassed a large number of culture-loaded words, and translation of culture-loaded words is an important carrier for cultural readers from other countries to understand Chinese culture without relevant cultural background.

	At the specific practice level, a large number of culture-loaded words will inevitably appear in the text as a material to publicize all aspects of the country. A good example is Xi Jinping: The Governance of China (Volume III). General Secretary Xi Jinping quoted classics and used approachable language in his speech. His use of words infused with Chinese culture made this series of speeches more vivid and appealing to the audience. Through careful text reading, analysis, and summarization, it has been discovered that the culture-loaded words used in Xi Jinping: The Governance of China (Volume III) primarily fall into the following categories: Chinese political words, including political slogans and political characters; a large number of ancient Chinese poems, with cultural connotation primarily reflected in the characters, allusions, and images appearing in poetry; unique Chinese sayings and idioms; and special words with Chinese cultural connotation, such as numbers, etc. The translation of culture-loaded words necessitates translators faithfully conveying the essence and soul of their national culture while accurately and properly understanding the beliefs, customs, and aesthetic values in other national cultures in order to achieve true cultural communication. As a result, in order to achieve the goal of Chinese culture spreading, translators should carefully deal with culture-loaded words and strive to accurately convey the essence of traditional Chinese culture to target language readers.

 The paper uses the English translation of culture-load words in ''Xi Jinping: The Governance of China'' as the research content, and attempts to summarize and analyze the translator’s translation strategy and rationality when translating Chinese culture-loaded words from the perspective of Skopos Theory, as well as providing a reference for the English translation of Chinese cultural load words in current publicity materials.

-====2.1 Culture-loaded Words====
+====Culture-loaded Words====
 Nida proposed the theory of culture-loaded terms translation for the first time in 1945.
@@ Line 51: / Line 51: @@
 Skopos Theory’s three basic rules are intended to guide the translator throughout the translation process. In most cases, the translation cannot meet all three rules at the same time because doing so causes it to deviate from the original intention of the source text. In general, the Skopos rule should be followed by the coherence rule, followed by the fidelity rule, or, to put it another way, the need for loyalty is considered to be subject to intratextual coherence, both of which are subject to the Skopos rule. When a faithful translation of the original text cannot be effectively understood by receivers of the target text, the translator should abandon the fidelity rule and follow the coherence rule, that is, to make the translation meaningful in the target language’s communicative context and culture. If the function changes, the required standard will no longer be intertextual consistency with the source text, but adequacy or appropriateness in terms of the purpose (Nord, 2001). If the purpose necessitates intratextual incoherence, the intratextual coherence criterion is no longer applicable.
-====2.3 The Translation Strategies of Culture-loaded Words====
+====The Translation Strategies of Culture-loaded Words====
 Wang Jianguo (2019) identified four limitations in translating culture-loaded words.
@@ Line 86: / Line 86: @@
 The above-mentioned social culture-loaded terms demonstrate a high level of adherence to the coherence rule and the Skopos rule, most likely due to the fact that social culture-loaded terms vary greatly across cultures. Target readers may find it difficult to interpret translations that strictly adhere to the fidelity rule, whereas translations that adhere to the coherence and Skopos rules can better facilitate cross-cultural communication. According to the appendix’s collected social culture-loaded terms, the majority of social culture-loaded terms used deletion, literal translation, and inline annotation. These three strategies allow international readers with limited knowledge of Chinese society to comprehend China’s policies and read the volume fluently.
-====3.2 Translation Strategy of Material Culture-loaded Words====
+====Translation Strategy of Material Culture-loaded Words====
 Material culture-loaded words include material products and technology invented by human beings derived from the development of society. The third volume’s material culture-loaded terms can be divided into four categories: construction, items, literary works, and names. Most material culture-loaded terms use transliteration and amplification strategies when translating literary works and names, as well as substitutions when translating constructions and products. Materials can have a variety of meanings in different cultures. For example, in Chinese culture, the terms “勤务员” and “伙夫” are distinct expressions that may not have equivalent words or phrases in English. While translating these words, translators should be aware of expressions in Western culture with similar meanings.
@@ Line 139: / Line 139: @@
 The example above show that when translating ecological culture-loaded words, translators would consider three rules of the Skopos theory, with the coherence rule taking precedence. It is most likely because most ecological culture-loaded words are names of places or animals, which may be unfamiliar to international readers. To ensure that target readers read in a consistent manner. In translating ecologically loaded terms, the translators use literal translation (including transliteration, implication, and deletion). The mixed-use of translation strategies revealed various rules that are used in translation.

+===Conclusion===
 Since the publication of ''Xi Jinping: The Governance of China (Volume III)'', it has served as the Chinese government's authoritative voice and a window for the rest of the world to understand China's policies. It crystallizes Chinese governance theory and practices and has high research value.This thesis is concerned with the classification of culture-loaded words, their translation strategies, and how these strategies demonstrate the application of three Skopos theory rules.

-====1.2 Research Significance====
+==== Research Significance====
 China’s politics and policies are attracting increasing attention from the outside world as China’s overall national strength and economic development improve. The Communist Party of China celebrates its 100th anniversary in 2021. This is a significant event in Chinese ruling party's historical and political development. ''Xi Jinping: The Governance of China (Volume III)'' was published at a critical juncture. Xi Jinping’s political vision is expanded in the third version. The language in the book is rich and diverse. In addition to general political terms, the book employs rhetorical devices such as exclusion and repetition to improve the language’s persuasion. The books also contain a large number of poems, proverbs, and idioms rich in Chinese cultural heritage. A minor blunder may result in cultural misunderstanding, a negative national image, and an impact on international relations.
