They come in different shapes and sizes, such as round, oval and many others. And they are normally decorated with elaborate patterns, with each pattern symbolizing a special meaning.For instance,a double-fish or double-butterfly pattern smybolizes the love between a man and a woman;patterns like lotus or peony flowers symbolize women;pine and crane patterns symbolize longevity and a guava pattern is the symbol of lots of children.A nice scented sachet is not just an ornament,but more of something that contains cultural and historical richness.2.中国民间艺术与中国哲学统一于“阴阳(yin-yang)生万物”这一理念。

中国文化习俗段落翻译
中国文化习俗段落翻译1. 中西方饮食习惯（eating habits）存在极大差异。
不同于西方那种每人一盘食物的饮食习惯，在中国，菜肴是被放在桌上让大家共同分享的。
如果你在中国主人家做客，就要做好有一大桌食物的心理准备。
中国人对于自己的烹饪文化（culture of cuisine）感到非常自豪，而且会尽全力去展示自己的好客（hospitality）。
而且有时候，中国主人会用他们的筷子把食物夹到你的碗里或盘子中。
这是礼貌的体现。
2. 在中国，小孩的满月酒（One-Month-Old Feast）和抓周（One-Year-Old Catch）仪式独具特色。
小孩出生满一个月的那天，孩子的家人一般要招呼亲朋挚友，邀请他们一起来庆祝孩子满月。
小孩儿慢周岁的那天，有抓周到额仪式。
按照中国的传统，父母及他人不给予任何的引导和暗示，任孩子随意挑选，看他先抓什么后抓什么，并以此为依据来预测孩子可能存在的志趣和将从事的职业以及前途。
参考译文1.There are great differences between Chinese and Western eating habits. Unlike the West, where everyone has their own plate of food, in China the dishes are placed on the table and everybody shares. If you are being treated by a Chinese host, be prepared for a table of food. Chinese are very proud of their culture of cuisine and will do their best to show their hospitality. And sometimes the Chinese hosts use their chopsticks to put food in your bowl or plate. This is a sign of politeness.参考译文2: In China, One-Month-Old Feast and One-Year-Old Catch of a baby are of unique Chinese characteristics. On the day when a baby is a month old, the family of the baby will invite their friends and relatives to a ceremony to celebrate the occasion. On the day when a baby is one year old, there is a ceremony of One-Year-Old Catch. According to Chinese traditional custom, nobody will give any instruction or clue to the baby so that it is left free to choose by itself. Watching the baby catch the articles it likes, the family can then make predictions about its potential interest, future career and development.春节贴年画（pasting New Year Print s）的风俗源自于往房子外面的门上贴门神（Door Gods）的传统，随着木质雕刻品（board carvings）的出现，年画包含了更广泛地主题，最出名的就是门神，三大神——福神、薪神、和兽神（three Gods of Blessings, Salary and Longevity）,寓意着庄稼丰收、家畜兴旺和庆祝春节。

(Chapter 74) H: It seems that the respect that I and the others show you, even though it is only for Her Ladyship’s sake and out of consideration for your age, merely encourages you to make mischief for us and abuse your borrowed powers. That, in all conscience, is hard enough to bear. But now, to lay hands on me - that is really too much! (Chapter 74)
