(Para 2) In ancient Egypt, the harvest festival was celebrated during the springtime—the Egyptian harvest season. It featured a parade and a great feast with music, dancing, and sports.

在所有的传统节日中,庆祝收获的节日几乎在每个文化中都能找到。这一重要的农耕节日(一般)会在所有农作物收割完毕后举行。人们举行庆祝活动是为了表明他们对土地供应一年食物的感激。在古埃及,收获的节日通常在春季举行,春季——是埃及人的收获季节。它通常是以游行和一场由音乐、舞蹈和运动(组成)的伟大盛宴为特色。今天,在一些欧洲国家,人们用鲜花和水果装饰教堂和市政大厅然后聚在一起,一边吃饭一边庆祝。在中国中秋节期间,家庭成员团聚在一起,共赏明月,品尝美味的月饼。
(Para 3) Customs play a significant role in festivals, but sometimes they can change over time. With the development of modern society and the spread of new ideas, some traditions may fade away and others may be established.

(Para 3) One example is the typical Chinese Spring Festival custom of lighting firecrackers to drive away the evil spirits and celebrate the new year. Nowadays, many big cities have given up this custom in order to avoid air pollution.
Another example is Halloween, which slowly became an exciting festival for children, in spite of its religious origins.

习俗在节日中起着重要的作用,但是有时他们也会随着时间而变化。随着现代社会的发展和新思想的传播,有些传统会逐渐消失而另外一些也会慢慢建立。为了驱逐恶鬼和庆祝新年,中国人在春节燃放鞭炮的习俗就是一个典型的例子。为了避免空气污染现在很多大城市已经放弃了这个习俗。另一个例子是万圣节,它慢慢地变成了一个让孩子们很兴奋的节日而尽管它起源于宗教。
(Para 4) Festivals are becoming more and more commercial, with businesses taking advantage of the celebrations. Online shopping websites and social media apps have made it much easier for the public to spend more on gifts for their loved ones. Although some believe festivals should not be commercialised, others believe the increase in spending is good for the economy and public happiness.

节日是社会的一个重要部分。它们反映了人们的希望,信心,宗教信仰和对生活的态度。它们也是一些让我们放松下来,享受生活和暂时忘记工作的机会。它们帮助我们了解我们从哪里来,我们是谁,我们喜欢什么(这些问题)。如果你仔细研究一下各种节日,你也许会吃惊地发现:事实上不同的文化之间竟然会有许多相同之处。
(Para 5) Festivals are an important part of society.
They reflect people's wishes, beliefs, faiths, and attitudes towards life. They are occasions that allow us to relax and enjoy life, and forget about our work for a little while. They help us understand where we came from, who we are, and what to appreciate.
And if you study festivals carefully, you may be surprised to find that different cultures actually have a lot in common after all.
