oh lol stardict in extra can do that if you add dictionary database to it. But the translate will not be in a sentence, it will be in word.

is it working without internet?

Re: HELP!how to translate English to Chinese?
 

Buy a pocket dictionary. No need for internet and you'll learn much more.

Mine was 2.5USD and has served me well.

Don't forget phototranslator. Take a photo of text and it will translate it to a chosen language. only any good for printed stuff like menu's timetables, maps, signs etc.
Still a useful tool.
Actually you can type in a chosen language and it will show you an output in the translated language in the pane beside it, but i think it does need a internet connection.

Pick up a local SIM card
SIM card with CMCC 100 RMB
Turned on GPRS (I guess ChinaTelecom has 3g?)

try installing SCIM (otherwise no data chinese entry)

Here is what I did when there:
One way is to used a huge 1 page txt list for a dictionary and then grep from the command line to find the translations...
