Similar Different gives three examples and answers them in English. Write about Spring Festival and Christmas.

I can give you the text. After you read it yourself, just write it in English according to your needs:

One of the interests is "eating"

Like the Spring Festival in China, eating is also the first priority of traditional Christmas. However, its climax is not the New Year's Eve dinner, but the Christmas lunch on the 25th-roast turkey. Roasted turkey has British characteristics, from stuffing, ingredients and vegetables in the belly of the turkey to operating procedures, there are certain rules for the strokes. The hostess of an office worker who is not familiar with "business" need not panic. Almost every family has a cookbook, and the hardcover is 4 pages thick, which is placed in the kitchen according to the rules. When the turkey weighing several kilograms should be put into the oven, when the temperature changes, when it is unpacked and when it is served are clearly written. Even so, the hostess made preparations the night before, and got up early at Christmas and was busy until dinner.

At dinner, my host, Adras, told me that the habit of eating roast turkey at Christmas has not spread to Britain for many years. He lived in Yorkshire more than 5 years ago, and the tradition at that time was to eat roast chicken. At that time, chicken was still a rarity, very expensive, and only eaten during the Spring Festival. Sure enough, there is also a "Christmas roast chicken" program on the menu. The last dessert of Christmas lunch is also special. Christmas pudding with whiskey and butter is very sweet and has a strong wine flavor. Adras said that when he was a child at home, his mother made them by herself, and they could be stored for three years. Isn't this the same as playing rice cakes in the south of China and freezing jiaozi in the north? Listening to Adras's old story, I suddenly returned to China's Spring Festival dinner. "Food is the most important thing for the people" seems to be indispensable in any country's culture. Although the forms of "food" are different, people's desire to eat well during the holidays is the same.

the second interesting thing is "ceremony"

Christmas Day is a Thursday, and the British simply make it Christmas week. Just like people in China celebrate the Spring Festival, the crazy shopping for new year's goods last until Christmas Eve, and the commercial streets, shopping centers and supermarkets decorated with Christmas lights are packed.

Christmas presents are all wrapped in colored paper and placed under the Christmas tree, which indicates who to send them to, and often contains small cards with blessing words. Opening presents on Christmas morning is the happiest time for a family. After breakfast, friends and family gathered in front of the Christmas tree, and everyone received several packages of gifts. As each exquisite package was opened, it was often accompanied by a scream and a burst of laughter. Gifts are not big or small, sometimes they are just a box of chocolates, a razor or a small comb and a joke. What is important is that the whole family conveys their affection in this way at this special moment.

On Christmas Eve, there was an article in The Times called "Cold Hands, Hot Hearts", which was about people buying gifts in the cold. This year, every family in Britain spent about 4 pounds on Christmas presents. This figure is higher than a few years ago, but it is still modest compared with their average annual income of about 3 thousand pounds. I can't help thinking of China people giving gifts during the Spring Festival. China people's tradition of attaching importance to family and affection is often praised by foreigners, but nowadays, the value of gifts is getting higher and higher, and there is even the danger of competing with the rich, but the sincere affection is diluted.

The third interest is to "pray for blessings"

In the old days, China celebrated the Spring Festival by sweeping dust, offering sacrifices to stoves, posting Spring Festival couplets, setting off firecrackers and other forms. In fact, relatives and friends dropped by to wish a blessing, which was to make the coming year auspicious. Christmas in Britain also has the same practice. On Christmas Eve, big activities are concentrated in some churches. Around 5 pm, BBC TV broadcasts the hymn service of King's College Cambridge to the world for 5 years. The selected scriptures and hymns are the contents of blessing. It also marks the official start of Christmas Eve in Britain. According to British media reports, some British people only go to church on this day of the year. But in fact, two-thirds of families now spend Christmas Eve at home. They do a household cleaning in advance, and then decorate the Christmas tree or various lights.

It's also very warm for a friend's house to finish the last Christmas decoration on Christmas Eve. After dinner, the couple took out a lot of Christmas cards they received and put them on a special long card. They read one, talked about the distant old friend or new friend, inserted one, inserted two full strings, and then hung them on the wall. These two Christmas decorations, composed of hundreds of friends' blessings, are undoubtedly the most precious of all decorations. They told me that many friends haven't seen each other for many years, and they are usually too busy to keep in touch. But at this time of year, they will send a Christmas card, with a short message in addition to their wishes, to report the major work and life events of this year, which they dubbed "work report". Although the Internet household usage rate in Britain is among the highest in the world, and online greeting cards are also very popular, mailing Christmas cards once a year is still the main way for many old friends to contact, and the small cards bear their traditions and feelings.
