2017年6月份大學英語四級翻譯練習題:端午節(jié)
請將下面這段話翻譯成英文:
端午節(jié)
端午節(jié)(Dragon Boat Festival)是中國的傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日之一,為每年農歷五月初五。它與春節(jié)、清明節(jié)和中秋節(jié)并稱為中國漢族的四大傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日。端午節(jié)的來源有多種說法,但最被人們接受的是為了紀念著名愛國詩人屈原。這一天的習俗有吃粽子、賽龍舟、喝雄黃酒(realgar wine)等。從2008年起,端午節(jié)正式列入國家法定節(jié)日,這既有助于弘揚傳統(tǒng)文化,又能適應人們的需要。
