The American Way | | | | Christmas (Part 6 of 7)
美式聖誕節 (七段中的第六段) Sometimes Christmas can become just a ritual. Many Americans see Christmas as just a time for shopping for the "perfect gift." Advertisers and businesses begin promoting Christmas earlier every year. Stores remind customers of how many shopping days are left until Christmas. It's almost a modern Christmas custom to spend too much money! Credit card debts often take months to pay off. Even children can become materialistic. They think only of what they will get from Santa Claus. 有時候,聖誕節變得非常形式化。許多美國人把聖誕節當成只是一個購買「最佳禮物」的時刻。廣告公司和商人開始一年比一年提早為聖誕節打廣告,商店也會提醒顧客在聖誕節之前還有幾天可以購物,過量的花費幾乎已成了現代的聖誕節習慣!用信用卡代付的金額通常要好幾個月才能償清。即使小孩也變得很物質主義,他們只想到自己會從聖誕老公公那裡得到什麼禮物。 ☉Word Bank ritual (n) 典體;儀式 materialistic (adj) 物質主義的 | |
