范文二：情人节 英文介绍
Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day is named for Saint Valentine an early
Christmas churchman who reportedly （据传闻） helped young
lovers. Valentine was killed for his Christian beliefs on February 14
more than 1700 years ago, but the day that has his name is even
earlier than that.
More than 2,000 years ago, the ancient Romans celebrated a
holiday for lovers. As part of the celebration, girls wrote their
names on pieces of paper and put them in a large container. Boys reached into the container and pulled one out. The girl whose name was written on the paper became his lover or sweet heart for a year.
Lovers s till put their names on pieces of paper and they sent each other Valentine’s Day cards that tell of their love. Sometimes they also sent gifts, like flowers of chocolate candy.
Americans usually send these gifts and cards through the mail
system. But some used another way to send this message. They
have it printed in a newspaper. The cost is usually a few dollars.
Some of the messages are simple and short “Jane, I love you
very much”. Others say more. This one, for example, “Dan,
Roses are red. Violets(紫罗兰) are blue. I hope you love me as
much as I love you. Forever . May.”
Most of the newspapers that print such messages are local , but USA Today is sold throughout the United States, and 90 other countries as well. This means someone can send a Valentine message to lover in a far-away city or town almost anywhere in the world. These messages cost 80 dollars and more. An employee of USA Today says readers can have a small heart or rose printed along with their messages this year. Will this kind of Valentine’s Day message reach the one you love? Well, just make sure he or she reads the newspaper.

There are varying opinions as to the origin of Valentines Day. Some experts state that it originated from St. Valentine, a Roman who was martyred for refusing to give up Christianity. He died on February 14, 269 , the same day that had been devoted to love lotteries.
Legend also says that St. Valentine left a farewell note for the jailers daughter, who had become his friend, and signed it "From Your Valentine".
Other aspects of the story say that Saint Valentine served as a priest at the temple during the reign of Emperor Claudius. Claudius then had Valentine jailed for defying him. In 496 Pope Gelasius set aside February 14 to honour St. Valentine.
Gradually, February 14 became the date for exchanging love messages and St. Valentine became the patron saint of lovers. The date was marked by sending poems and simple gifts such as flowers. There was often

a social gathering or a ball.
In the United States, Miss Esther Howland is given credit for sending the first valentine cards. Commercial valentines were introduced in the 1800s and now the date is very commercialised.

were separated on the two banks forever and could only feel their tears. Their loyalty to love touched magpies, so tens of thousands of magpies came to build a bridge for the Cowhand and Weaver Maid to meet each other. The Queen Mother was eventually moved and allowed them to meet each year on the 7th of the 7th lunar month. Hence their meeting date has been called "Qi Xi" (Double Seventh).

穿上牛皮做的鞋～拉着自己的儿女～一起腾云驾雾上天去追

飞来～搭成鹊桥～让牛郎织女走上鹊桥相会～王母娘娘对此
也无奈～只好允许两人在每年七月七日于鹊桥相会。
Scholars have shown the Double Seventh Festival originated from the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD220). Historical documents from the Eastern Jin Dynasty (AD371-420) mention the festival, while records from the Tang Dynasty (618-907) depict the grand evening banquet of Emperor Taizong and his concubines. By the

七夕乞巧～这个节日起源于汉代～东晋葛洪的《西京

乞巧的记载。后来的唐宋诗词中～妇女乞巧也被屡屡提及～
唐朝王建有诗说“阑珊星斗缀珠光～七夕宫娥乞巧忙”。据
《开元天宝遗事》载:唐太宗与妃子每逢七夕在清宫夜宴～
宫女们各自乞巧～这一习俗在民间也经久不衰～代代延续。

Today some traditional customs are still observed in rural areas of China, but have been weakened or diluted in urban cities. However, the legend of the Cowhand and Weaver Maid has taken root in the hearts of the people. In recent years, in particular, urban youths have celebrated it as Valentine's Day in China. As a result, owners of flower shops, bars and stores are full of joy as they sell more commodities for love.
