Advent is the period of preparation for the celebration of the birth of Jesus and begins on Sunday nearest to 30th November. The word Advent comes from the Latin adventus meaning coming. Traditionally it is a penitential season but is no longer kept with the strictness of Lent and Christians are no longer required to fast.
從最臨近11月30日的星期天開始的耶穌降臨是為慶祝耶穌誕生做準(zhǔn)備的一段時(shí)間。降臨起源于拉丁語詞匯“adventus”意義為來臨。按照傳統(tǒng)，這是基督教徒懺悔的時(shí)間，但現(xiàn)在基督教徒們已經(jīng)不需要嚴(yán)格遵守這一規(guī)矩。
Advent wreaths are popular especially in churches. They are made with fir branches and four candles. A candle is lit each Sunday during Advent.
降臨節(jié)花環(huán)是非常流行的一個(gè)裝飾物，特別是在教堂里。它是由杉樹樹枝和四根蠟燭組成。在降臨節(jié)的這個(gè)月里，每周星期日人們就會(huì)點(diǎn)亮一只蠟燭。
Christmas Day is the Christian festival most celebrated by non-churchgoers, and churches are often completely full for the service late on Christmas Eve.
圣誕節(jié)是基督教的節(jié)日中最廣泛被非基督教徒慶祝的節(jié)日，而平安夜教堂中也會(huì)擠滿了來做禮拜的人。
