Answer 1

Every country in the world has its special festivals，some of which are interesting and have a long history. The Spring Festival in China takes place at the end of December of Chinese Lunar Calendar. Before the Spring Festival，people often get everything ready for it，such as doing family cleaning and buying new clothes for the family. On the New Year’s Eve, there is a big family dinner and all the members of the family try to get back for the dinner no matter how far away they are. On the first day of the new year，dressed up in new clothes，people visit their friends and relatives，giving children lucky money and looking forward to the wonderful future.

试题分析：这道书面表达题是提纲类的，但是更多的是翻译题，只是要将句子连接成短文，所以考生在翻译句子的基础上，用适当的关联词将句与句连接成篇就可以了，但是在翻译句子的时候，不要逐字逐句的翻译，而要使用所给的词汇或短语表达，也要考虑用那个地道的英语句式。
【亮点说明】翻译句子的时候，除了使用到了题目要求的短语，句子的句式多复杂句，也富有变化：Every country in the world has its special festivals，some of which are interesting and have a long history. The Spring Festival in China takes place at the end of December of Chinese Lunar Calendar.这句话用的是定语从句， On the New Year’s Eve, there is a big family dinner and all the members of the family try to get back for the dinner no matter how far away they are. 这句话用了让步状语从句，On the first day of the new year，dressed up in new clothes，people visit their friends and relatives，giving children lucky money and looking forward to the wonderful future.这句话用了非谓语动词。
