西方节日-英语PPT-(1)

WesternFestival西方节日中国和英语国家的文化差异显著地表现在节日方面。除中国和英语国家共同的节日（如,NewYear’sDay）处，双方还各有自己独特的节日。中国有theSpringFestival,theDragonBoatFestival,Mid—AutumnDay.等，英语国家有”Valentine’sDay（情人节），Easter（复活节），Aprilfool’sDay（愚人节），ThanksGivingDay（感恩节），ChristmasDay（圣诞节）等。中西方节日的风俗习惯也很不相同。在节日里，对于别人送来的礼物，中国人往往要推辞一番，表现得无可奈何地接受，接受后一般也不当面打开。如果当面打开并喜形于色，可能招致“贪财”的嫌疑。而在英语文化中，人们对别人送的礼品，一般都要当面打开称赞一番，并且欣然道谢.因此，对西方节日的了解显得尤为重要如母亲节Mother'sdayThesecondSundayinMayisMother'sday.Mother'sdayisaspecialdayforeveryone!Onthatday,childrenusuallygivetheirmotherwithcards,presentsandflowers.Butmostofthepeople,likegivingtheirmotherscarnation（康乃磬）。SomebodysaidGodcouldnotbeeverywhereandhemademother.Mother，Iloveyou!Onthisdayweallsitbackandthinkabouthowmuchourmothersdoforus.千里试问平安否？且把思念遥相寄。绵绵爱意与关怀，浓浓情意与祝福，母亲节快乐。Wherewouldwebewithoutyou,mom?妈妈，没有您我们将流落何方呢？ConsideringthequalityoffoodthatchildrenmaketheirmothersonMother'sDay,itbecomesapparentthatwithoutmoms,theirkidswouldstarvetodeath.想想母亲节时，孩子们为妈妈所做的早餐；很明显的，如果没有妈妈，孩子们将会饿死。母爱Valentine'sDayisonFebruay14theveryyear.Onthatday,peoplealwaysgivetheirloverssomerosesandchocolate(巧克力）.Today,boysandgirlslooklikesweet.Theygotorestaurantsandhaveabigsupper.Valentine'scardsbecomemoreandmorebeautiful.情人节Valentine'sDay情人节情人节由来Once,thefriarwhoiscalledWalundingisputinprisonbecauseofofficiate(主持)atamarriageforapairofsweethearts（爱人）inchurch,theelderwiththejail（监狱）blindpersondaughterlikeseachother.Walundinghasforgotthatselfbodyisinajail（监狱）completelyinbeingpassionately（激烈的）inlovewiththegirl.Someday,hehavefoundthemedicinalherb（药草）beingabletoletagirlregainsight,heallhasdecocted（煎、熬）medicinalherbs（药草）forthegirleveryday.Thegirldoesnotwaittodolightbut,hewaitstohavedonethecourtverdict（判定）deathpenalty（死刑）but!Eleventhhourinhislife,thegirlhasrepliedtointelligibility（可懂的）.Shefinallyseessweetheart‘sappearance,Walundingstilllosesbutlife.Beforelong,also,thegirldepressedbutdies.ThatdaypassingawayisaFebruary14ofthe3rdcenturyB.C.Afterwards,churchthatthisdayisfixedis“Walundingfestival”,isjust“Valentine’sDay”forcommemorating（纪念）him.一名叫瓦伦丁的修士因为为一对情侣在教堂主持婚礼而入狱,与监狱长的盲人女儿相爱.瓦伦丁在与女孩的热恋中完全忘记了自己身在监狱.某一天,他找到了可以让女孩复明的草药,他每天都为女孩熬药.可是，女孩还没有等来光明，他却等来了判决书——死刑！在他生命的最后时刻,女孩复明了.她终于见到恋人的相貌,但瓦伦丁依旧失去生命.不久,女孩也抑郁而死.逝去的那一天就是公元前3世纪的一个2月14日。后来，教会为了纪念他，将这一天定为“瓦伦丁节”，也就是“情人节”。父亲节Father'sDayFather'sDayisonthethirdSundayinJune.SomeAmericansthoughtthatifwehadMother'sDay,butweshouldalsohaveaFather'sDay.OnFather'sDay,thereisnotanyparty.Butchildrenwillgivetheirfathersomepresentsandthebestwishes.fatherisgreat,weshouldgivethebestwishesforourfather!父亲节万圣节HalloweenHalloweenisonOctober31st.In(On)thisday,infornt(front)ofhousehas(thereare)alotofpumpkinlights（南瓜灯）.Theyareverybeautiful.everyfamilyhasalotofsweetbecausechildrengotoknock（敲门）theirdoorspeoplewillgivethemsweets（糖）.Andpeoplewillwearfunnyclothes.万圣节愚人节Aprilfool'sdayAprilfool'sdayisonAprilthe1stofeveryear,inmanycountry,peoplealwayshavealittleandverybeautifulparty,theydon'tmakeupatthatday.peoplealwayssaysomefoolishthings,buttheydon'tcare,childrenandoldmanalsocanplaythegameintheparty.愚人节复活节EasterEastercelebratestheresurrection（复活）ofJesusChrist（耶稣）.Easterisfrom22ndMarchto25thApril.EasterisanimportantholidayinWestern（西方）countries.Chickensareusuallybornthen.Manychildrenbuychocolate（巧克力）Eastereggs.TheyalsomakeEastereggs.Easteristhetimeofthespringtimefestival(spring).Somepeoplearelikethisholidaybecauseitisinteresting.感恩节ThanksgivingDayOneverylastThursdayofNovemberisaspecialday.ItisOn1621.PeoplearecallitThankgivingDay.SomeAmericanthinkThanksgivingDayismoreimportantthananyotherday,doyouthinkso?Onthatday,allpeoplehavesupperwiththeirfamilytogetherThanksgivingDayinAmericaisatimetooffer提议thanks,offamilygatherings聚集andholidaymeals.膳食PeopleareliketoeatturkeyandsomefruitsOnthatdaypeopleareallhappy.ButinCanadaThanksgivingDayisOnOctoberthesecondMonday.圣诞节ChristmasDayDecember25thisChristmasDay.OnChristmasDay,manypeoplewillhavebigparties.Theylikeeatingturkey（火鸡）,fruitsanddrinkingsomejuiceforsupper.Aftersupper,manypeoplewillgooutforshoppingandwalking(walk)withtheirchildren.Therearealotofspecialthings:Christmastrees,socks,Christmascardandsomepresents.SoinChristmasDay,allthefamiliesareveryhappy.ChristmasDayChristmasDayiscoming.christmasDayisusuallycelebratedonDecember25.Onthatday,everybodyexchangesgreetingsbysaying“MerryChristmas”andalsoexchangespresents.Inmyopinion,ChristmasDayisnotverypopularyinourcountry,justafewpeopleknownthisforeignfestival.AsaEnglishlearner,whatdoyouusuallydoonthatday?圣诞节圣诞由来圣诞祝福AChristmaswishformybestfriend!给我最好的朋友一个圣诞祝福!Haveyoubeennaughtyornicethisyear?你今年乖不乖？Whynotenjoyourholidaystogether?MerryChristmas,mybestfriend.祝我的挚友圣诞快乐。Bestofluckintheyeartocome.愿你在未来的一年里，吉星高照。Manygoodwishesfortheholidayandthecomingyear.新的一年，向你献上最诚挚的祝福。WishyoualltheblessingsofabeautifulChristmasseason.愿你拥有美丽的圣诞所有的祝福。Mayitsblessingsleadintoawonderfulyearforyouandallwhomyouholddear.祝福你及你所爱的人新的一年中万事如意。Seasonsgreetings.顺颂时祺。WishingyouawhiteChristmas.愿你有一个银白色的圣诞。致：挚友圣诞祝福MomandDad:Thankyouforeverythingthisholidayseason!爸爸妈妈：值此佳节，感谢您们所给予的一切。Illb
