I tried with some random article from dwnews and it worked very well. Just about the only problems I saw was in verb tenses. For example, in one place the translation used the word "exit", where it seemed to me it would have been better with "have exited" or at least "exited".
This is understandable given the endpoints. Chinese almost completely lacks verb tenses, expecting everything to come from context. But AIUI, English is pretty much the opposite extreme, having more explicit verb tenses than most other languages. So the translation isn't able to fully flesh out from context what the English tense should be, and just gives a reasonable compromise.
Even with this mistake, it was quite readable.
