Unit 6 Celebrations 翻译：第六单元 庆祝活动

When my parents were young, many young adults left their hometown to work in cities, but they all tried to return home from near and far for the traditional family gatherings. While most families enjoyed the big dinner at home, some families chose to celebrate it in restaurants. After dinner, watching the Spring Festival Gala on TV became a new tradition. Children usually received hongbao (red packets) from parents and grandparents as gifts. When midnight came, fireworks lit up the night skies and everybody cheered "Happy New Year!". 翻译：在我父母年轻的时候，许多年轻人离开家乡到城市工作，但他们都会想方设法从四面八方回到家乡，参加传统的家庭团聚。大多数家庭会在家享用丰盛的年夜饭，但也有一些家庭选择在餐馆庆祝。晚饭后，看电视上的春节联欢晚会成了一项新传统。孩子们通常会收到父母和祖父母给的红包作为礼物。午夜来临时，烟火点亮了夜空，每个人都欢呼“新年快乐！”。

As for our generation, the digital age has brought more changes to the traditional celebrations. These days, some families choose to travel during the holiday. When this happens, they can "get together" with their relatives through video calls and watch the Gala online. People also send best wishes and red packets through apps. Fireworks are not as popular as before because of air pollution, but people still stay up late. 翻译：对我们这一代人来说，数字时代为传统庆祝方式带来了更多变化。如今，有些家庭会选择在假期外出旅行。这种情况下，他们可以通过视频通话与亲人“团聚”，还能在线观看春晚。人们也会通过应用程序发送祝福和红包。由于空气污染，烟花不像以前那么流行了，但人们仍然会守岁。
