问题     圣诞节是西方最盛大(grand)的宗教节日之一,每年全世界有很多国家都庆祝圣诞节。如今,庆祝圣诞节的中国人越来越多。圣诞节当天,他们会像西方人那样装饰房子和交换礼物。然而,圣诞节的宗教意义在中国已经弱化(weaken),取而代之的是富有中国特色的元素。例如:中国人常用苹果当圣诞礼物,因为汉语“苹果”的发音与“平安”相似,因此象征着好运和美好的未来。

选项

答案     As one of the grandest religious festivals in the West, Christmas is celebrated in many countries around the world every year. Now, it has become a festive occasion for an increasing number of Chinese. On Christmas, they decorate their houses and exchange gifts like the westerners. However, the religious meaning of Christmas has been weakened and replaced by Chinese elements, for example, apples are often given as a gift on Christmas in China because "pingguo" (apple) has the similar pronunciation to "ping’an" (safe and sound) in Chinese, hence a symbol of good luck and a happy future.
