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.从最临近11月30日的星期天开始的耶稣降临是为庆祝耶稣诞生做准备的一段时间。降临起源于拉丁语词汇“adventus”意义为来临。按照传统,这是基督教徒忏悔的时间,但现在基督教徒们已经不需要严格遵守这一规矩。Advent wreaths are popular especially in churches. They are made with fir branches and four candles. A candle is lit each Sunday during Advent.降临节花环是非常流行的一个装饰物,特别是在教堂里。它是由杉树树枝和四根蜡烛组成。在降临节的这个月里,每周星期日人们就会点亮一只蜡烛。Christmas Day is the Christian festival most celebrated by non-churchgoers, and churches are often completely full for the service late on Christmas Eve.圣诞节是基督教的节日中最广泛被非基督教徒庆祝的节日,而平安夜教堂中也会挤满了来做礼拜的人。
