（单词翻译）

 　　At 80, Sanmao, China's most popular comic strip hero, is not aging at all.

　　"熊孩子"三毛的不老青春
　　Skinny limbs, big head and three curly strands1 of hair crowning the top, he is brave and quick-witted as Tintin and acts as an ultimate survivor2 like Charlie Brown.
　　But unlike his western counterparts, Sanmao's tales are much darker, since they mirror some of the most turbulent moments of Chinese history in the 20th century.
　　Shao Jianqiu is a comic buff born in the 1980s.
　　"When I read the books as a kid, I could only memorize the scenes. But as I get older, I start to recognize the political connotation and irony3 of these comic strips. There are many elements of historical background embedded4. In terms of the plot, drawing style, and the incisive5 reflection on the society, Sanmao series are truly master pieces. "
　　In 1935, Sanmao, literarily meaning "three hairs" in Chinese, was devised by cartoonist Zhang Leping in Shanghai. Though at that time, modern comics had already been popularized for ten years, it was rare to see a comic strip featuring a child as protagonist6.
