You may click on the 'D' icon on the status-bar to activate and deactivate DictCN (color of the icon changes correspondingly). You may also press ctrl-alt-d short-key to do the job.
By Moving the mouse over the translation, you can hear the speech, and a click on it will bring you to the detailed explanation page.
