英语情景对话:端午节话端午
DIALOGUE
A: Have you heard about the Dragon Boat Races to be held this afternoon?
A: 你知道今天下午有龙舟比赛吗?
B: Yes, it is part of a holiday, right?
B: 知道啊,是为了庆祝什么节日对吧?
A: Yup, Duan Wu Festival, but it’s also just simply called the Dragon Boat Festival. It’s among the three major traditional holidays celebrated by Chinese.
A: 是的,是端午节,不过(英文中)通常叫做龙舟节。它是中国三大传统节日之一。
B: Other than the Dragon Boat Races, what’s special about this day?
B: 除了龙舟赛,这一天还有什么特别的活动吗?
A: Traditionally, it was thought to be a time for warding off evil spirits, but now it’s just thought of a time to remind family members to take care of their health.
A: 在传统上,这一天一直被视为是驱凶避邪的日子,不过现在它的意义已经只是提醒家人注意身体健康了。
B: Sounds great! I think I’ll join in on the boat competitions.
B: 听起来不赖!我想我会去参加龙舟比赛。
A: After you’ve worked up an appetite, you can eat Zongzi. Everyone eats them during the Dragon Boat Festival.
A: 等你划船累到肚子饿的时候,就可以吃粽子。端午节的时候大家都会吃粽子。
B: Eating is a really important part of Chinese culture, huh?
B: 吃真是中国文化中很重要的一部分,对吧?
A: Yes, perhaps one of the most important aspect. Don’t worry though; there are no surprises in Zongzi. They are just rice with either meat or sweet red bean paste wrapped inside. They are quite yummy!
A: 没错,或许是最重要的之一。不过别担心,粽子里面没什么特别的东西,只是米饭包着肉或豆沙而已。好吃极了!
