2019年6月英语六级翻译模拟题：乒乓球

　　请将下面这段话翻译成英文：

　　乒乓球室意向强调耐力和反应能力(reflexes)的运动，尽管乒乓球本身比较小，运动强度不大。不论男女老少都可以同台公平竞争。由于是室内运动，所以可以常年举行比赛或进行练习。自此乒乓球运动诞生以来，它已经经历了巨大的演变。比赛规则经过了很多次的修改，并且随着技术的进步和打球方式的改变，运动器材也发生了变化。这些改良(refinement)只是证明了乒乓球运动已经发展为意向非常完美的运动，可以与我们所崇尚的(with reverence)任何一种经典运动相媲美。

　　参考译文

　　Despite its small size and moderate intensity, ping-pong is a sport that emphasizes endurance and reflexes. People of all ages and genders can play it on an equal ground. The sport is played indoors, so year-round competition and practice are possible. Ping-pong has undergone enormous evolution since it came into being, which has experienced many revisions of rules and seen an improvement of equipment as technology and playing styles changed. Such refinement only serves as evidence that ping-pong is indeed a full-fledged sport, comparable to any of the other classics we behold with reverence.
