  【翻译原文】

  农历九月九日是传统的重阳节(Chongyang Festival),或者说是双九节。登高辟邪(avoid epidemics’)的习俗从很久以前就流传(pass down)下来。因此,重阳节也被称为“登高节”(Ascending Festival)。1989年,中国政府决定把重阳节定为老年节(Seniors’ Day)。从那以后,所有政府单位、组织和街道社区每年都会为退休职工组织一次秋游。在水边或山间,老年人将发现自己融入(merge into)自然。年轻一代会在这天带老人郊游或送礼物给他们。

  【参考译文】

  The 9th day of the 9th lunar month is the traditional Chongyang Festival, or Double Ninth Festival. The custom of ascending a height to avoid epidemics was passed down from long time ago. Therefore, the Double Ninth Festival is also called “Height Ascending Festival”. In 1989, the Chinese government decided the Double Ninth Festival as Seniors’ Day. Since then, all government units, organizations and streets communities will organize an autumn trip each year for those who have retired from their posts. At the waterside or on the mountains, the seniors will find themselves merged into nature. Younger generations will bring elder ones to suburban areas or send gifts to them on this day.
