    台湾人与英国人如何庆祝圣诞节?
    Tái wān rén yǔ yīng guó rén rú hé qìng zhù shèng dàn jié?

    随着年近尾声,也表示着期盼已久圣诞节的到来,过去的每一年都是在台湾度过圣诞节,所以今年的假期决定留在英国与家人朋友一起感受国外的圣诞气氛,原来英国的圣诞节就像在台湾庆祝农历新年一样热闹。
    Suí zhe nián jìn wěi shēng, yě biǎo shì zhe qī pàn yǐ jiǔ shèng dàn jié de dào lái, guò qù de měi yī nián dōu shì zài tái wān dù guò shèng dàn jié, suǒ yǐ jīn nián de jià qī jué dìng liú zài yīng guó yǔ jiā rén péng yǒu yī qǐ gǎn shòu guó wài de shèng dàn qì fēn, yuán lái yīng guó de shèng dàn jié jiù xiàng zài tái wān qìng zhù nóng lì xīn nián yī yàng rè nào.

    万圣节过后,英国的街头纷纷开始为圣诞节而装饰,进入12月份,每个周末大家几乎都会和不同朋友们聚在一起,但到了真正圣诞节的期间,朋友们还是各自回家与家人一起度过。今年放假的期间就与朋友们一起逛圣诞市集、看圣诞点灯仪式、到伦敦冬季限定的游乐园体验了第一次的英国传统圣诞节。
    Wàn shèng jié guò hòu, yīng guó de jiē tóu fēn fēn kāi shǐ wèi shèng dàn jié ér zhuāng shì, jìn rù 12 yuè fèn, měi gè zhōu mò dà jiā jī hū dōu huì hé bù tóng péng yǒu men jù zài yī qǐ, dàn dào le zhēn zhèng shèng dàn jié de qí jiān, péng yǒu men hái shì gè zì huí jiā yǔ jiā rén yī qǐ dù guò.

    虽然近几十年来台湾受到西方主流文化的影响,在12月份也开始有一系列的圣诞庆祝活动,例如许多学校有圣诞歌唱比赛、政府会举办耶诞城或请歌星到各地表演,但由于台湾还是以农历新年为主,所以基本上都是年轻人自己与朋友们一起庆祝这个节日。
    Suī rán jìn jǐ shí nián lái tái wān shòu dào xī fāng zhǔ liú wén huà de yǐng xiǎng, zài 12 yuè fèn yě kāi shǐ yǒu yī xì liè de shèng dàn qìng zhù huó dòng, lì rú xǔ duō xué xiào yǒu shèng dàn gē chàng bǐ sài, zhèng fǔ huì jǔ bàn yé dàn chéng huò qǐng gē xīng dào gè dì biǎo yǎn, dàn yóu yú tái wān hái shì yǐ nóng lì xīn nián wéi zhǔ, suǒ yǐ jī běn shàng dōu shì nián qīng rén zì jǐ yǔ péng yǒu men yī qǐ qìng zhù zhè ge jié rì.

    台湾与英国庆祝圣诞节的方式不尽相同,但共通点都是与家人朋友相聚在一起,祈求一个更好的一年。

    How do the Taiwanese and the British celebrate Christmas?

    With the end of the year approaching, it also means that the long-awaited Christmas is coming. In the past, I always spent Christmas in Taiwan, so this year, I decided to stay in the UK with my family and friends to experience the Christmas atmosphere abroad. I discovered that Christmas in the UK is as lively as Chinese New Year in Taiwan.

    After Halloween, the British start to decorate the streets for Christmas. In December, they normally hang out with different friends almost every weekend, but Christmas itself is reserved for families. This year, I spent the holiday with my friends, going to Christmas markets, seeing Christmas lights and visiting Winter Wonderland in London to experience the traditional British Christmas for the first time.

    Taiwan has been influenced by the Western mainstream culture in recent decades, and there is a series of Christmas celebrations in December. For example, many schools hold Christmas song competitions, and governments organise Christmasland or invite singers to perform in various places. However, Lunar New Year is still much more important in Taiwan, so Christmas is basically celebrated by young people with their friends.

    The ways that the Taiwanese and the British celebrate Christmas are different, but what we have in common is that we gather with family and friends and pray for a better year.
