請將下面這段話翻譯成英文:
賽龍舟
賽龍舟(Dragon boat racing)是端午節(jié)的一項(xiàng)重要活動(dòng),在中國南方尤為流行。關(guān)于這項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng)的由來,有一種說法是為了紀(jì)念中國古代的著名愛國詩人屈原。龍舟的大小和樣式多種多樣,但一般都帶有裝飾性的龍頭和龍尾。賽龍舟不僅是一種體育和娛樂活動(dòng),它更能體現(xiàn)人們心中的集體主義和愛國主義精神。賽龍舟現(xiàn)已被列入國家級非物質(zhì)文化遺產(chǎn)名錄(National Intangible Cultural Heritage List)。
參考翻譯:
Dragon Boat Racing
Dragon boat racing is an important activity of Duanwu Festival (also known as Dragon Boat Festival), and is particularly popular in the south of China. As for its origin, one version is that it is held in memory of Qu Yuan, a famous patriotic poet in ancient China. The dragon boats vary in sizes and styles, but they are generally rigged with decorative Chinese dragon heads and tails. Dragon boat racing is not only a kind of sports and recreational activities, but also reflects the spirit of people’s collectivism and patriotism. Dragon boat racing is now among the National Intangible Cultural Heritage List.

4.娛樂活動(dòng):可譯為 recreational activity、amusement 或 entertainment。注意其所在句可用not only...but also結(jié)構(gòu)。

請將下面的一段話翻譯成英文
中國經(jīng)濟(jì)的高速發(fā)展,帶來了消費(fèi)文化的日益流行,同時(shí)也催生了一批具有高學(xué)歷,充分享受資本主義消費(fèi)模式的年輕人,他們習(xí)慣于當(dāng)月工資當(dāng)月花。因而被稱為“月光族”(the moonlight group)!霸鹿庾濉币辉~出現(xiàn)于20世紀(jì)90年代后期,是用來諷刺那些出身富裕、接受高等教育、充分享受快餐文化(fast food culture)的年輕人。
“月光族(the moonlight clan)”總是每個(gè)月花光收入,也沒有存錢的計(jì)劃。社會(huì)中有一小部分人是“月光族”。支持這種消費(fèi)觀念的人指出,作為月光族可以讓他們擁有更多享受生活的機(jī)會(huì),過高質(zhì)量的生活。這種消費(fèi)習(xí)慣在某種程度上也造成了奢侈浪費(fèi)。月光族或許擁有奢華、高質(zhì)量的生活,但是他們也會(huì)感到缺乏安全感,尤其是當(dāng)手頭拮據(jù)的時(shí)候。
