6. Ignoring the chair offered him, Chu Teh stood squarely before this youth more than ten years his junior and in a level voice told him who he was, what he had done in the past, how he had fled from Yunnan, talked with Sun Yat-sen, been repulsed by Chen Tu-hsiu in Shanghai, and had come to Europe to find a new way of life for himself and a new revolutionary road for China.(1.

9. When both visitors had told their stories, Chou smiled a little, said he would help them find rooms, and arrange for them to join the Berlin Communist Group as candidates until their application had been sent to China and an answer received.1.visitors 2.stories 3.

10. When the reply came a few months later they were enrolled as full members, but Chu's membership was kept a secret from outsiders. (1. When the reply came a few months later 2.四处被动处理)

总结:速度太快,用词欠考虑;译前应该先分析结构,找点;中文烂;主状谓。
应该先略读全文,明白意思,确定好文风之后,再开始逐句翻译。
