1. 圣诞节,元旦,春节资料(要英语和汉语翻译

Far and away the most important holiday in China is Spring Festival, also known as the Chinese New Year. To the Chinese people it is as important as Christmas to people in the West. The dates for this annual celebration are determined by the lunar calendar rather than the Gregorian calendar, so the timing of the holiday varies from late January to early February.
To the ordinary Chinese, the festival actually begins on the eve of the lunar New Year's Day and ends on the fifth day of the first month of the lunar calendar. But the 15th of the first month, which normally is called the Lantern Festival, means the official end of the Spring Festival in many parts of the country.

Preparations for the New Year begin the last few days of the last moon, when houses are thoroughly cleaned, debts repaid, hair cut and new clothes purchased. Houses are festooned with paper scrolls bearing auspicious antithetical couplet (as show on both side of the page) and in many homes, people burn incense at home and in the temples to pay respects to ancestors and ask the gods for good health in the coming months.

"Guo Nian," meaning "passing the year," is the common term among the Chinese people for celebrating the Spring Festival. It actually means greeting the new year. At midnight at the turn of the old and new year, people used to let off fire-crackers which serve to drive away the evil spirits and to greet the arrival of the new year. In an instant the whole city would be engulfed in the deafening noise of the firecrackers.

On New Year's Eve, all the members of families come together to feast. Jiaozi, a steamed mpling as pictured below, is popular in the north, while southerners favor a sticky sweet glutinous rice pudding called nian gao.

"CHRISTMAS (i.e. the Mass of Christ), in the Christian Church, the festival of the nativity of Jesus Christ. The history of this feast coheres so closley with that of Epiphany (q.v.), that what follows must be read in connexion with the article under that heading.

The earliest body of gospel tradition, represented by Mark no less than by the primitive non-Marcan document embodied in the first and third gospels, begins, not with the birth and childhood of Jesus, but with his baptism; and this order of accretion of gospel matter is faithfully reflected in the time order of the invention of feasts. The great church adopted Christmas much later than Epiphany; and before the 5th cntury there was no general consensus of opinion as to when it should come in the calendar, whether on the 6th of January, or the 25th of March, or the 25th of December.

The earliest identification of the 25th of December with the birthday of Christ is in a passage otherwise unknown and probably spurious, of Theophilus of Antioch (A.D. 171-183), preserved in Latin by the Magdeburg centuriators (i.3, 118), to the effect that the Gauls contended that as they celebrated the birth of the Lord on the 25th of December, whatever day of the week it might be, so they ought to celebrate the Pascha on the 25th of March when the resurrection befell.

The next mention of the 25th of December is in Hippolytus' (c. 202) commentary on Daniel iv.23. Jesus, he says, was born at Bethlehem on the 25th of December, a Wednesday, in the forty-second year of Augustus. This passage also is almost certainly interpolated. In any case he mentions no feat, nor was such a feast congruous with the orthodox ideas of that age. As late as 245 Origen, in his eighth homily on Leviticus, repudiates as sinful the very idea of keeping the birthday of Christ "as if he were a king Pharoah." The first certain mention of Dec. 25 is in a Latin chronographer of A.D. 354, first published entire by Mommsen. [1--In the _Abhandlungen der sachsischen Akademie der Wissenschaften_ (1895). Note that in A.D. 1, Dec. 25 was a Sunday and not a Friday.] It runs thus in English:

"Year 1 after Christ, in the consulate of Caesar and Paulus, the Lord Jesus Christ was born on the 25th of December, a Friday and 15th day of the new moon." Here again no festal celebration of the day is attested.

There were, however many speculations in the 2nd century about the date of Christ's birth. Clement of Alexandria, towards its close, mentions several such, and condemns them as superstitions. Some chronologists, he says, alleged the birth to have occurred in the twenty-eighth year of Augustus, on the 25th of Pachon, the Egyptian month, i.e. the 20th of May. These were probably the Basilidian gnostics. Others set it on the 24th or 25th of Pharmuthi, i.e., the 19th or 20th of April. Clement himself sets it on the 17th of November, 3 B.C. The author of a Latin tract, called the _De Pascha computus_, written in Africa in 243, sets it by private revelation, _ab ipso deo inspirati_, on the 28th of March. He argues that the world was created perfect, flowers in bloom, and trees in leaf, therefore in spring; also at the equinox, and when the moon just created was full. Now the moon and sun were created on a Wednesday. The 28th of March suits all these considerations. Christ, therefore, being the Sun of Righteousness, was born on the 28th of March.

The same symbolical reasoning led Polycarp [2--In a fragment preserved by an Armenian writer, Ananias of Shirak.] (before 160) to set his birth on Sunday, when the world's creation began, but his baptism on Wednesday, for it was the analogue of the sun's creation. On such grounds certain Latins as early as 354 may have transferred the human birthday from the 6th of January to the 25th of December, which was then a Mithraic feast and is by the chronographer above referred to, but in another part of his compilation, termed _Natilis invicti solis_, or birthday of the unconquered Sun. Cyprian (_de orat. dem._ 35) calls Christ _Sol verus_, Ambrose _Sol novus noster_ (Sermo vii. 13), and such rhetoric was widespread.

The Syrians and Armenians, who clung to the 6th of January, accused the Romans of sun-worship and idolatry, contending with great probability that the feast of the 25th of December had been invented by disciples of Cerinthus and its lections by Artemon to commemorate the _natural_ birth of Jesus. Chrysostom also testifies the 25th of December to have been from the beginning known in the West, from Thrace even as far as Gades. Ambrose, _On Virgins_, iii. ch. 1, writing to his sister, implies that as late as the papacy of Liberius 352-356, the Birth from the Virgin was feasted together with the Marriage of Cana and the Banquet of the 4000 (Luke ix.13), which were never feasted on any other day but Jan. 6.

Chrysostom, in a seermon preached at Antioch on Dec. 20, 386 or 388, says that some held the feast of Dec. 25 to have been held in the West, from Thrace as far as Cadiz, from the beginning. It certainly originated in the West, but spread quickly eastwards. In 353-361 it was observed at the court of Constantius. Basil of Caesarea (died 379) adopted it. Honorius, emperor (395-423) in the West, informed his mother and brother Arcadius (395-408) in Byzantium of how the new feast was kept in Rome, separate from the 6th of January, with its own _troparia_ and _sticharia_.

They adopted it, and recommended it to Chryostom, who had long been in favour of it, as were the other three patriarchs, Theophilus of Alexandria, John of Jerusalem, and Flavian of Antioch. This was under Pope Anastasius, 398-400. John or Wahan of Nice, in a letter printed by Combefis in his _Historia monothelitarum_, affords the above details. The new feast was communicated by Proclus, patriarch of Constantinople (434-446), to Sahak, Catholicos of Armenia, about 440. The letter was betrayed to the Persian king, who accused Sahak of Greek intrigues, and deposed him. However, the Armenians, at least those within the Byzantine pale, adopted it for about thirty years, but finally abandoned it together with the decrees of Chalcedon early in the 8th century.

Many writers of the period 375-450, e.g. Epiphanius, Cassian, Asterius, Basil, Chrysostom and Jerome, contrast the new feast with that of the Baptism as that of the birth _after the flesh_, from which we infer that the latter was generally regarded as a birth according to the Spirit. Instructive as showing that the new feast travelled from West eastwards is the fact (noticed by Usener) that in 387 the new feast was reckoned according to the Julian calandar by writers of the province of Asia, who in referring to other feasts use the reckoning of their local calendars. As early as 400 in Rome an imperial rescript includes Christmas among the three feasts (the others are Easter and Epiphany) on which theatres must be closed. Epiphany and Christmas were not made judicial _sine dies_ until 534.

For some years in the West (as late as 353 in Rome) the birth feast was appended to the baptismal feast on the 6th of January, and in Jerusalem it altogether supplanted it from almost 360 to 440, when Bishop Juvenal introced the feast of the 25th of December. The new feast was about the same time (440) finally established in Alexandria. The _quadregesima_ of Epiphany (i.e., the feast of the presentation in the Temple, or _hupapante_) continued to be celebrated in Jerusalem on the 14th of February, forty days afer the 6th of January, until the reign of Justinian. In most other places it had long before been put back to the 2nd of February to suit the new Christmas. Armenian historians describe the riots, and display of armed force, without which Justinian was not able in Jerusalem to transfer this feast from the 14th to the 2nd of February.

The grounds on which the Church introced so late as 350-440 a Christmas feast till then unknown, or, if known, precariously linked with the baptism, seem in the main to have been the following: (1) The transition from alt to infant baptism was proceeding rapidly in the East, and in the West was well-nigh completed. Its natural complement was a festal recognition of the fact that the divine element was present in Christ from the first, and was no new stage of spiritual promotion coeval only with the descent of the Spirit upon him at baptism.

The general adoption of child baptism helped to extinguish the old view that the divine life in Jesus dated from his baptism, a view which led the Epiphany feast to be regarded as that of Jesus' spiritual rebirth. (2) The 4th century witnessed a rapid diffusion of Marcionite, or, as it was now called, Manichaean propaganda, the chief tenet of which was that Jesus either was not born at all, was a mere phantasm, or anyhow did not take flesh of the Virgin Mary. Against this view the new Christmas was a protest, since it was peculiarly the feast of his birth in the flesh, or as a man, and is constantly spoken of as such by the fathers who witnessed its institution.

In Britain the 25th of December was a festival long before the conversion to Christianity, for Bede (_De temp. rat._ ch. 13) relates that "the ancient people of the Angli began the year on the 25th of December when we now celebrate the birthday of the Lord; and the very night which is now so holy to us, they called in their tongue _modranecht (modra niht)_, that is, the mothers' night, by reason we suspect of the ceremonies which in that night-long vigil they performed." With his usual reticence about matters pagan or not orthodox, Bede abstains from recording who the mothers were and what the ceremonies. In 1644 the English puritans forbad any merriment or religious services by act of Parliament, on the ground that it was a heathen festival, and ordered it to be kept as a fast. Charles II. revived the feast, but the Scots adhered to the Puritan view.

Outside Teutonic countries presents are unknown. Their place is taken in Latin countries by the _strebae_, French e'trennes_, given on the 1st of January; this was in antiquity a great holiday, wherefore until late in the 4th century the Christians kept it as a day of fasting and gloom. The setting up in Latin churches of a Christmas _cr`eche_ is said to have been originated by St Francis.

12月25日,是基督教徒纪念耶稣诞生的日子,称为圣诞节。
从12月24日于翌年1月6日为圣诞节节期。节日期间,各国基督教徒都举行隆重的纪念仪式。圣诞节本来是基督教徒的节日,由于人们格外重视,它便成为一个全民性的节日,是西方国家一年中最盛大的节日,可以和新年相提并论,类似我国过春节。
西方人以红、绿、白三色为圣诞色,圣诞节来临时家家户户都要用圣诞色来装饰。红色的有圣诞花和圣诞蜡烛。绿色的是圣诞树。它是圣诞节的主要装饰品,用砍伐来的杉、柏一类呈塔形的常青树装饰而成。上面悬挂着五颜六色的彩灯、礼物和纸花,还点燃着圣诞蜡烛。
红色与白色相映成趣的是圣诞老人,他是圣诞节活动中最受欢迎的人物。西方儿童在圣诞夜临睡之前,要在壁炉前或枕头旁放上一只袜子,等候圣诞老人在他们入睡后把礼物放在袜子内。在西方,扮演圣诞老人也是一种习俗。

圣诞的由来
圣诞节的由来耶稣的生日究竞是哪一天,其实早无据可查。为什么要把12月25日定为圣诞节呢?这是在5世纪中叶由教会规定的。公元354年,在“菲洛卡连”日历中第一次写明12月25日是耶稣的生日,到5世纪西方普遍接受了这个日期为圣诞节。
圣诞树
据称,圣诞树最早出现在古罗马12月中旬的农神节,德国传教士尼古斯在公元8世纪用纵树供奉圣婴。随后,德国人把12月24日作为亚当和夏娃的节日,在家放上象征伊甸园的“乐园树”,上挂代表圣饼的小甜饼,象征赎罪;还点上蜡烛,象征基督。到16世纪,宗教改革者马丁.路德,为求得一个满天星斗的圣诞之夜,设计出在家中布置一颗装着蜡烛的圣诞树。不过,西方关于圣诞树的来历流行着另一种说法:有个善良的农民,在圣诞节那天,热情地招待了一名流浪的孩子,临别时,孩子折下一树枝插在地上树枝立即长成大树,孩子指着这树对农民说,每年今日,树上都长满礼物,以报答你们的盛情。所以,今天人们所见的圣诞树上总是挂满了小礼物。

圣诞歌
长期以来,一直流行的圣诞歌主要有三个,一个是《平安夜》;一个是《听,天使报佳音》;第三个是《铃铛儿响叮当》。

圣诞老人
圣诞老人原指公元4世纪时小亚细亚专区 的主教尼古拉,他因和蔼可亲慷慨济贫万里闻名。到了6世纪,东方把他尊称为圣尼古拉。由于民间有关尼古拉的传说中,都联系到少年儿童和礼物,从此,圣诞老人便成为专门在圣诞节向孩子们送礼物的慈祥老人的形象。到了18世纪,通过文学和绘画,圣诞老人逐渐成为身穿红外衣的白胡子、白眉毛老人形象。

圣诞卡
世界上第一张圣诞卡是1843年英国人亨利.高乐爵士提议,由约翰.卡尔葛.荷斯利设计的。卡片上画的是一个贵族家庭,三代人一齐举杯对一位不在场的亲友表示祝贺。当时他印了1000张,没有用完的印刷厂就以每张1先令的价钱卖出。圣诞卡就这样诞生了。

圣诞礼物
据《圣经》记载,来自东方的圣人在耶稣降生的时候赠送礼物,这就是圣诞老人为儿童赠送礼品习俗的由来。英国少年儿童在圣诞前夕把长统袜子放在壁炉旁,相信圣诞老人在夜里会从大烟囱下来,给他们带来满袜子的礼物。法国的少年儿童把鞋放在门口,让“圣婴来时把礼物放在鞋里面。”

圣诞大餐
正像中国人过春节吃年饭一样,欧美人过圣诞节也很注重全家人围坐在圣诞树下,共进节日美餐。圣诞大餐吃火鸡的习俗始于1620年。这种风俗盛于美国。英国人的圣诞大餐是烤鹅,而非火鸡。奥大利人爱在平安夜里,全家老小约上亲友成群结队地到餐馆去吃一顿圣诞大餐,其中,火鸡、腊鸡、烧牛仔肉和猪腿必不可少,同时伴以名酒,吃得大家欢天喜地.

每年的1月1日为元旦,是新年的开始。“元日”是合成词,按单个字来讲,“元”是第一或开始的意思,“旦”字的原意是天亮或早晨。我国在发掘大汶口文化遗物中,发现一幅太阳从山颠升起,中间云烟缭绕的图画。经考证,这是我国最古老的“旦”字写法。后来,在殷商的青铜器铸铭上,又出现了被简化的“旦”字。“旦”字是以圆圆的太阳来表示的。“日”下面的“一”字表示地平线,意为太阳从地平线上冉冉升起。南朝文史家肖子云在他的《介雅》中记载有“四气新元旦,万寿初今朝”,看来那时已将旦为一日的开始,引申为一年的第一天了。 但是,我国古人说的元旦,却并不是公历的1月1日,而是正月初一,又称元日。中国历史上的年号并不是公元纪年,而是每个皇帝每个朝代都有单独的纪年,是阴历纪年。现行的公元纪年,是西方历法的体现。是以基督诞生为公元1年。中国只是到了中华民国以后才逐渐改用公元纪年。因此,中国农历的正月初一既春节比公历的元旦更有节日气氛。
“元”有始之意,“旦”指天明的时间,也通指白天。元旦,便是一年开始的第一天。“元旦”一词,最早出自南朝梁人萧子云《介雅》诗:“四气新元旦,万寿初今朝。”宋代吴自牧《梦梁录》卷一“正月”条目:“正月朔日,谓之元旦,俗呼为新年。一岁节序,此为之首。”元旦,《书·舜典》中叫“元日”,汉代崔瑗《三子钗铭》中叫“元正”;晋代庾阐《扬都赋》中称作“元辰”;北齐时的一篇《元会大享歌皇夏辞》中呼为“元春”;唐德宗李适《元日退朝观军仗归营》诗中谓之“元朔”。自来元旦指的是夏历(农历、阴历)正月初一。在汉语各地方言中有不同叫法,有叫“大年初一”的,有叫“大天初一”的,有叫“年初一”的,一般又叫“正月初一”。
我国历代元旦的月日并不一致。夏代在正月初一,商代在十二月初一,周代在十一月初一,秦始皇统一六国后,又以十月初一日为元旦,自此历代相沿未改(《史记》)。汉武帝太初元年时,司马迁创立了“太初历”,这才又以正月初一为元旦,和夏代规定一样,所以又称“夏历”,一直沿用到辛亥革命。中华民国建立,孙中山为了“行夏正,所以顺农时;从西历,所以便统计”,定正月初一(元旦)为春节,而以西历(公历)1月1日为新年。1949年9月27日,中国人民政治协商会议第一届全体会议通过使用“公元纪年法”,将农历正月初一称“春节”,将公历1月1日定为“元旦”。
过圣诞节已经成为世界各地的风俗习惯,可是你可曾探究过这日子的由来?你知道为什麼要庆祝这日子吗?圣诞节的由来可追溯到2001年前耶稣的诞生。
确实年份虽然已无从考察,但大多数考古学家都认为应该是在划分世纪的那一年(即公元前一年),只不过正确的出生日期无法确定。因此早期的基督教徒便以罗马帝国时期的密司拉教派,在每年一二月二十五日纪念太阳神诞辰的第一天定为【圣诞节】。所以圣诞节在宗教上是基督教徒纪念耶诞生的一个重要节日。根据圣经的记载,耶稣诞生在犹太的一座小城--伯利恒。马利亚,也就是耶稣的母亲,因圣灵的感动而怀孕,在梦中天使加百列向她显现,告诉她,她将要生下神的儿子,他要被称为耶稣。就在与丈夫约瑟返往家乡时,所有的旅店客满,因此马利亚被迫在马槽生下耶稣。遥远的东方有三博士得到神的启示,追随天上的一颗明亮星星找到了耶稣,俯伏拜他,揭开宝盒,拿出黄金、乳香、没药为礼物献给他。在伯特利野地的牧差人也听到天使的声音从天上发出,向他们款耶稣降生的佳音。在民俗上,那可就要追溯到德国了。在德国,圣诞节前的四个星期天分别秩为第一、二、三、四个待降节(advent)。在第一个待降节左右就开始了耶诞市集,而第一个待降节当天,家家户户都会将待降花圈(adventskranz)中第一根蜡烛点燃,之后每个待降节分吸再依序点燃待降花圈的其他蜡烛,等第四根蜡烛被点燃的时候,就代表耶诞节要来啦!这段期间德国家庭同时开始准备各项采买、装饰,大扫除的工作,这像不像我们的腊月呢?而小朋友也会得到一份「耶诞日历」(ADVENTSKALENDER),这是一个纸盒,上面会有1到24个小「门」,每个小门后面都有一样小玩具或糖果之类的东西。就像我们小时候在住家附的杂货店「抽」东西一样,小朋友从十二月一号开始每天可以开一个门,刚好开到十二月二十四的耶诞节前夕。不过顽皮的小朋友通常迫不及待地在第一天就将它全部打开了!

the name christmas is short for "christ\'s mass". a mass is a kind of church service. christmas is a religious festival. it is the day we celebrate as the birthday of jesus. there are special christmas services in christian churches all over the world. but many of the festivities of christmas do not have anything to do with religion. exchanging gifts and sending christmas cards are the modern ways of celebrating the christmas in the world. the birth of jesus had a story: in nazareth, a city of galilee. the virgin\'s name was mary was betrothed to joseph

2. 平安夜,平安果用英语怎么说

平安夜和平安果翻译成英语分别是:Christmas Eve,Safe fruit 。

平安夜指12月24日晚,是圣诞夜的意思,英语叫Christmas Eve(圣诞前夕,圣诞前夜),平安夜也用来表示圣诞节前一天。巧得很,和中国民间的“扫尘节”一样(夏历12月24日,在全国大部分地区的家庭里都要扫尘,“尘”和“陈”谐音,“扫尘”因而有“除旧”的意思)。

在旧时的欧洲,平安夜也是扫尘的日子。这一天尤其对农村的父母来说,是非常辛劳的一天。他们要为圣诞节和新年做许许多多事情:忙地里活、照料牲口、擦地板、洗厨具、烤圣诞鹅、做蛋糕、布置圣诞树、张罗圣诞礼物……等到全家团聚欢庆平安夜的时候,父母们通常已经累得直不起腰了。

很多人询问平安夜的由来。圣诞节是指12月25日,平安夜是指12月24日是圣诞前夕,称为圣诞夜,也称为平安夜。届时,千千万万的欧美人风尘仆仆地赶回家中团聚。圣诞之夜必不可少的节目是Party或聚会。

大多数欧美家庭成员团聚在家中,共进丰盛的晚餐,然后围坐在熊熊燃烧的火炉旁,弹琴唱歌,共叙天伦之乐;或者举办一个别开生面的化妆舞会,通宵达旦地庆祝圣诞夜是一个幸福、祥和、狂欢的平安夜、团圆夜。圣诞之夜,父母们会悄悄地给孩子们准备礼物放在长统袜里。

圣诞夜的高潮是基督教堂在圣诞夜举行的活动。圣诞夜弥撒一般分为两次,晚上9~10点的一次对教众举行;另一次是子夜时分的大弥撒,这是圣诞夜的高潮。子夜大弥撒在午夜结束,此时,正好圣诞节来临,常常伴随着教堂的钟声,敲响了对世界的宽恕、祝福和欢乐、幸福。

圣诞精神,

许多人同意这个观点:当我们想起圣诞节,我们可能会想到礼物,圣诞树和圣诞老人。但是,在所有的这些东西背后有圣诞节的真实含义:分享与把爱和欢乐给予我们周围人的重要性。《圣诞颂歌》这个故事里可能就是这个最好的例子。

4. 圣诞节英语介绍

圣诞节英文介绍:

Christmas, also known as Christmas, is translated as "Christ Mass", which originated from the Lunar New Year celebration in ancient Rome and has nothing to do with Christianity. After the popularity of Christianity in the Roman Empire, the Holy See drifted this folk festival into the Christian system to celebrate the birth of Jesus.

But it is not Jesus'birthday on Christmas Day, because the Bible does not record when Jesus was born, nor does it mention such a festival, which is the result of Christianity's absorption of ancient Roman mythology.

圣诞节中文介绍:

圣诞节又称耶诞节,译名为“基督弥撒”,它源自古罗马人迎接新年的农神节,与基督教本无关系。在基督教盛行罗马帝国后,教廷随波逐流地将这种民俗节日纳入基督教体系,同时以庆祝耶稣的降生。

但在圣诞节这天不是耶稣的生辰,因为《圣经》未有记载耶稣具体生于哪天,同样没提到过有此种节日,是基督教吸收了古罗马神话的结果。

圣诞节常见食品:

一、树干蛋糕

树干似的蛋糕(Buchedenoel)是著名的法国圣诞美食。

还未发明电力以前,法国人以一棵好柴作为圣诞礼物。法国人天性浪漫,连美食的起缘也浪漫过人:从前有一个买不起圣诞礼物的年青人,在森林捡了一段木头送给情人,不但赢得芳心,而且从此平步青云。因此,树干蛋糕也成为祝愿来年好运的象征。

二、杏仁布丁

当圣诞晚餐开始时,必须先吃一份杏仁布丁,然后才能开始吃别的东西。如果谁能吃到那枚唯一完整的杏仁,谁将是来年运气最好的一个人,通常大人们会将这枚杏仁放在最小的孩子的碗里让他们高兴。

三、姜饼

德国最著名的圣诞食品是姜饼(Lebkuchen),是一种介乎于蛋糕与饼干之间的小点。传统的姜饼,以蜂蜜、胡椒粒为材料,又甜又辣,口感刺激。姜饼经过改良,外面洒上一层糖霜,不但口感丰富,外型也相当讨好。

四、沙滩宴

当居于北半球的人们在寒风呼啸中欢度圣诞节时,位于南半球的澳大利亚却正是仲夏时节。澳大利亚热情如火的“仲夏圣诞节”既有热带风情的庆祝方式,也融合了欧洲传统圣诞节的经典元素,尽管户外人们顶着火辣辣的太阳,但商店橱窗里却精心布置了冬日雪景:挂满雪花的圣诞树和穿红棉袄的圣诞老人。

5. the spirit of christmas 英语文章翻译

圣诞精神

当我们想到圣诞节时,我们可能会想到礼物、圣诞树和圣诞老人,很多人都会同意这种观点。但是隐藏在圣诞节背后的含义才是圣诞节的真谛:分享和给予我们身边人爱与欢乐。《圣诞颂歌》中的故事或许最好的例子。

《圣诞颂歌》是查尔斯·狄更斯写的一篇著名小说。这篇小说讲述的是一位叫斯克鲁奇的老人的故事,这位老人从来都不笑。他吝啬自私,只考虑自己,从不与人为善。他只关心自己能否挣到更多的钱,并且厌恶圣诞节。

在一个圣诞前夕,斯克鲁奇看到了他死去的生意伙伴雅各布·马利的鬼魂。马利过去曾经就像斯克鲁奇一样,所以在他死后就受到了惩罚。他告诫斯克鲁奇如果他不想最终像落得像他一样的下场,就要改变他自私的想法。他还告诉斯克鲁奇将有三个幽灵来拜访他。

那天晚上,三个幽灵拜访了斯克鲁奇。首先,“圣诞过去之灵”带他回到了他的童年时代,使斯克鲁奇回想起自己孩提时代的欢乐时光。然后,第二个幽灵“圣诞现在之灵”,带他去看其他人是如何度过今年的圣诞节的。

每个人都很幸福,即使是穷人。最后一个,“圣诞未来之灵”带他去了未来。斯克鲁奇看到他死了,但没人在意他。他从睡梦中惊醒,发现已经是圣诞节的早晨了。

他决定改变自己的生活,下定决心做个更好的人。他同亲朋好友们一起快乐地庆祝圣诞节。他还送给需要帮助的人礼物。现在无论走到哪里,他都用善良与热情待人,传播着爱与欢乐。在才是真正的圣诞精神。

英语翻译方法与技巧:

词类转换:英语中很多由动词转化而成的名词、以及动名词、非谓语动词等,汉译时可将它们转换成动词。

补词:是指原文已有某种含义但未用词汇直接表达,译文中需将这些含义补充进去,这样才更通顺易读,如:英语中数词与名词之间没有量词,而译成汉语时可酌情增加。

省略:是指原文中某些词在译文中省略不译,只要并不影响意义的完整。如:上面讲的汉语“量词”,译成英语时则可以省略;又如:英语中大量使用物主代词而汉语中往往省略不用。

并列与重复:英语在表达重复含义的并列结构中常采用共享、替代、转换等形式来避免重复,而汉语却常常有意重复表达以加强文字的`力度,如:英语的物主代词替代前面的名词,短语动词只重复介词而省略主动词,汉译时可考虑重复表达。

那一天终于来了。我给了每个孩子一张20美元面值的钱,并嘱咐他们每个人去买一件4美元的礼物。然后大家各自离开去买礼物了。我们有两个小时的时间挑选礼物,然后我们返回“圣诞工厂”集合。
开车回家的路上,每个人都兴高采烈,只是,除了我的第二个女儿Ginger,她通常都很文静。她只有一个装着几颗糖的小而扁平的袋子—50美分的糖!我非常生气,但是直到到家我什么也没说。我把她叫到我的卧室,关上门,又一次非常愤怒.。这就是她告诉我的:“我到处寻找不知道买什么,然后我停下来读‘给与树’上的小卡片。其中一个是给一个小女孩的,她四岁,在圣诞节时她想要的就是玩具娃娃。所以,我从树上拿下了那张卡片并且给她买了个玩具娃娃。我们有这么多钱,但是她什么都没有。”
从那天起,我感觉自己前所未有的富有。
