关于情人节英文介绍

用英文介绍情人节~

February 14th is a complicated but interesting holiday. First of all, Valentine's Day is not a holiday from work. No one gets a day off[1]. On Valentine's Day people usually send romantic cards to someone they love or want to be loved by. The cards are called "valentines". They are very colourful, often decorated with hearts, flowers or birds, and have humorous or sentimental verses printed inside. The basic message of the verse is always "Be My Valentine", "Be My Sweet Heart" or "Lover". A valentine is anonymous, or sometimes signed "Guess who". The person receiving it has to guess who sent it. This can lead to interesting speculation. And that's half the fun of valentines.
The affectionate message might be carried by a heart - shaped box of chocolate candies, or by a bouquet of flowers tied with red ribbon. But in whatever form, the message is the same - "Will you be my valentine?"
One of the symbols of St. Valentine's Day is the Roman god of Love, called Cupid. Cupid is often printed on the card, who is winged infant without wearing anything, poised to shoot his arrow into a heart. He would shoot an arrow of love into a person's heart to make the person fall in love[2] immedia-tely, maybe with the first person to come along. Sometimes one arrow would go through[3] two hearts, holding them together. So on February 14th not only do we have picture of the Christian St. Valentine but we also have pictures of the non-Christian Cupid, the Roman god of Love.
But it is from the Christians that we get the stories about Valen-tine's Day that most people have come to believe[4]. One story is about a Christian man whose name sounded something like "Valentine." He lived around 250 A.D. At that time the Roman Emperor Claudius refused to allow any Roman soldiers to get married for any reason whatsoever. Christian couples came to Valentine to be married. So Valentine would marry them in a Christian way. He was discovered and put in prison by the Emperor.One tradition says that he wrote notes to his friends by marking on leaves and then throwing them out the window of his prison. And the leaves were shaped like a heart.
二月十四**是一个复杂而又有趣的节日。首先，情人节不是一个休假日。没人放假。在情人节这一天，人们爱谁或想得到谁的爱，就可给那个人寄去充满浪漫情趣的卡片。这种卡片叫"情人卡"。情人卡色彩鲜艳，常装饰有心、花或鸟，里面还印有幽默或感伤性的诗句。这些诗句传递的基本信息总是"做我的情人吧"、"做我甜蜜的心上人吧"、"情人"。 情人卡是不署名的，有时也可签上"猜是谁"。收到卡片的人要猜是谁寄的。这样可产生有趣的推测，这也正是情人卡的一些乐趣。
你可以用一个心脏形状的盒子，里面放上巧克力糖，来传递爱的信息，也可用彩带扎上一束鲜花来传递。不管用什么方式，都是一样的--"你愿做我的情人吗？"
情人节的标志之一是罗马爱神--丘比特。丘比特经常被印在卡片上，他是一个赤身裸体、长有翅膀的婴儿，手里拿着箭，摆出一副要射心的姿势。他把爱之箭射中一个人的心，这个人会很快坠入爱河，可能是和他（她）第一个见到的人。有时候，一只箭会射中两颗心，把它们穿在一起。所以在二月十四**，我们不仅有基督的"圣·瓦伦登"的画像，还有非基督的罗马爱神丘比特的画像。
大多数人相信的情人节的故事来源于基督教。其中有个故事提到，有一个基督徒的名字听起来象"瓦伦登"。他大约生活在公元前250年。那时罗马皇帝克劳迪乌斯禁止罗马士兵以任何借口结婚。信奉基督教的夫妇就去找"瓦伦登"主持结婚。"瓦伦登"以基督教方式为他们秘密举行婚礼后来被罗马皇帝发现送进监狱。传说他在叶子上做标记给他朋友传递信息，然后把叶子扔出监狱的窗外。这些叶子的形状是心形的。

In the third century, the Roman empire suffered from a general crisis, economic decline, the corruption of the ruling class, social unrest and people's resistance.
（公元3世纪，罗马帝国出现全面危机，经济凋敝，统治阶级腐败，社会动荡不安，人民纷纷反抗。）
In order to maintain their rule, the noble class brutally suppressed the people and christians. There was a Christian, valentine, who was put into prison.
（贵族阶级为维护其统治，残暴镇压民众和基督教徒。是时有一位教徒瓦伦丁，被捕入狱。）
In prison, he touched the warden's daughter with his open heart.
（在狱中，他以坦诚之心打动了典狱长的女儿。）
They loved each other and were taken care of by the warden's daughter. The ruling class ordered his execution.
（他们相互爱慕，并得到典狱长女儿的照顾。统治阶级下令将他执行死刑。）
Before his execution, he wrote a long suicide note to the warden's daughter, stating that he was innocent.
（在临刑前，他给典狱长女儿写了一封长长的遗书，表明自己是无罪的。）
It showed his open and aboveboard feelings and his deep attachment to the gaoler's daughter.
（表明他光明磊落的心迹和对典狱长女儿深深眷恋。）



On February 14, 270, he was executed.
（公元270年2月14日，他被处死刑。）
Later, christians sacrifice themselves for justice and pure love in order to commemorate valentine.
（后来，基督教徒为了纪念瓦伦丁为正义、为纯洁的爱而牺牲自己。）
Will be executed on this day as "st. valentine's day," later changed to "valentine's day."
（将临刑的这一天定为“圣瓦伦节”，后人又改成“情人节”。）

Valentine's Day, also known as St. Valentine's Day or St. Valentine's Day, is one of the traditional festivals in the West.
On this day, men and women send chocolate, greeting cards and roses to each other to express their love or friendship. It has become a favorite festival for young people in Europe and America.
Maybe there are as many Valentines in the world as there are interpretations of the origins of Valentine's Day.

情人节，又叫圣瓦伦丁节或圣华伦泰节，即每年的2月14 日，是西方的传统节日之一。男女在这一天互送巧克力、 贺卡和玫瑰花，用以表达爱意或友好，现已成为欧美各国青年人喜爱的节日。大概这世上有多少情人就有多少关于情人节来历的诠释吧。

St. Valentine's Day has roots in several different legends that have found their way to us through the ages. One of the earliest popular symbols of the day is Cupid（爱神丘比特）, the Roman god of love, who is represented by the image of a young boy with bow and arrow.
Three hundred years after the death of Jesus Christ, the Roman emperors still demanded that everyone believe in the Roman gods. Valentine, a Christian priest, had been thrown in prison for his teachings. On February 14, Valentine was beheaded（斩首）, not only because he was a Christian, but also because he had performed a miracle. He supposedly cured the jailer's daughter of her blindness. The night before he was executed, he wrote the jailer's daughter a farewell letter, signing it "From Your Valentine." Another legend tells us that this same Valentine, well-loved by all, received notes to his jail cell from children and friends who missed him.

Another Valentine was an Italian bishop who lived at about the same time, AD 200. He was imprisoned because he secretly married couples, contrary to the laws of the Roman emperor. Some legends say he was burned at the stake.

February 14 was also a Roman holiday, held in honor of a goddess. Young men randomly chose the name of a young girl to escort to the festivities. The custom of choosing a sweetheart on this date spread through Europe in the Middle Ages, and then to the early American colonies. Throughout the ages, people also believed that birds picked their mates on February 14!

In AD 496 Sain Pope Gelasius I named February 14 as "Valentine's Day". Although it's not an official holiday, most Americans observe this day.

Whatever the odd mixture of origins, St. Valentine's Day is now a day for sweethearts. It is the day that you show your friend or loved one that you care. You can send candy to someone you think is special. Or you can send roses, the flower of love. Most people send "valentines," a greeting card named after the notes that St. Valentine received in jail. Valentines can be sentimental, romantic and heartfelt（真心真意的）. They can be funny and friendly. If the sender is shy, valentines can be anonymous.

Americans of all ages love to send and receive valentines. Handmade valentines created by cutting hearts out of colored paper, show that a lot of thought was put into making them personal. Valentines can be heart-shaped, or have hearts, the symbol of love, on them. In elementary schools children make valentines for their classmates and put them in a large decorated box, similar to a mailbox. On February 14, the teacher opens the box and distributes the valentines to each student. After the students read their valentines they have a small party with refreshments.

For teenagers and adults, major newspapers throughout the country have a Valentine's Day offer. Anyone can send in a message, for a small fee of course, destined for a would-be sweetheart, a good friend, an acquaintance or even a spouse of fifty years. The message is printed in a special section of the newspaper on February 14
每年2月14日，是西方传统的圣瓦伦丁节（Valentine's Day），又称“情人节”。

公元三世纪时，古罗马有一位暴君叫克劳多斯（Claudius）。离暴君的宫殿不远，有一座非常漂亮的神庙。修士瓦伦丁（Valentine） 就住在这里。罗马人非常崇敬他，男女老幼，不论贫富贵贱，总会群集在他的周围，在祭坛的熊熊圣火前，聆听瓦伦丁的祈祷。

古罗马的战事一直连绵不断，暴君克劳多斯征召了大批公民前往战场，人们怨声载道。男人们不愿意离开家庭，小伙子们不忍与情人分开。克劳多斯暴跳如雷，他传令人们不许举行婚礼，甚至连所有已订了婚的也马上要解除婚约。许多年轻人就这样告别爱人，悲愤地走向战场。年轻的姑娘们也由于失去爱侣，抑郁神伤。

瓦伦丁对暴君的虐行感到非常难过。当一对情侣来到神庙请求他的帮助时，瓦伦丁在神圣的祭坛前为它们悄悄地举行了婚礼。人们一传十，十传百，很多人来到这里，在瓦沦丁的帮助下结成伴侣。

一对情侣在巴黎一个公园里的情侣墙前合影。这座用蓝色瓷砖镶嵌而成的墙上，用全世界的不同文字写满了311个意为“我爱你”的句子。

消息终于传进了宫殿，传到了暴君的耳里。克劳多斯又一次暴跳如雷，他命令士兵们冲进神庙，将瓦伦丁从一对正在举行婚礼的新人身旁拖走，投入地牢。人们苦苦哀求暴君的劾免，但都徒劳而返。瓦伦丁终于在地牢里受尽折磨而死。悲伤的朋友们将他安葬于圣普拉（St. Praxedes）教堂。那一天是2月14日，那一年是公元270年。

另外还有一个版本。传说中瓦伦丁是最早的基督徒之一，那个时代做一名基督徒意味着危险和死亡。为掩护其他殉教者，瓦伦丁被抓住，投入了监牢。在那里他治愈了典狱长女儿失明的双眼。当暴君听到着一奇迹时，他感到非常害怕，于是将瓦伦丁斩首示众。据传说，在行刑的那一天早晨，瓦伦丁给典狱长的女儿写了一封情意绵绵的告别信，落款是: From your Valentine （寄自你的瓦伦丁）。
