【解析】

试题分析：

1.她中等身材，有着长长的金色头发。of medium build中等身材；long blonde hair：金色的长发。故译成：她中等身材，有着长长的金色头发。

2.你应该对所有帮助过你的人心存感激。be thankful to sb对某人心存感激；all the people所有的人；who have helped you是定语从句，故译成：你应该对所有帮助过你的人心存感激。

3.Everyone is born with the ability to learn. 天生具有：be born with；学习能力：the ability to learn用不定式作定语；不定代词everyone作主语，谓语用三人称单数。故译成：Everyone is born with the ability to learn.

4.Don’t leave what you can do today until tomorrow. not…until…：直到……才……，今天的事：今天能做的事，用宾语从句：what you can do today。故译成：Don’t leave what you can do today until tomorrow.

5.13被认为是不吉利的数字，用被动语态：is considered, 故译成：It is said that in many Western countries 13 is considered to be an unlucky number.
