重阳节英文怎么说【3】

　　Climbing mountains: On the Double Ninth Festival, people customarily climb mountains, appreciate chrysanthemum flowers, drink chrysanthemum wine, and eat double-ninth cakes. The Double Ninth Festival is also the "Old Men Festival". Old people are especially meant to improve their health by taking part in the activities on the day of the festival.

　　Family get-togethers: The Double Ninth Festival is also a time for family get-togethers. It is an occasion to remember one's ancestors, the sacrifices they made and the hardships they underwent. Often, family outings are organised during which people search to renew their appreciation of nature and to reaffirm their love and concern for family members and close friends.

　　注释：

　　1、关于中国的历法我会在新概念三册的课文中讲到的，其中一定会提到表示某个传统节日时，一定不能用英语单词中现成的月份，比如今天的重阳节就不说September 9。所以这里用的是the ninth day of the ninth lunar month。
