A family dinner is an important tradition to celebrate Spring Festival. Nowadays, some people choose to have the dinner in a restaurant, but not everyone is keen on this idea. What do our readers think
We have eaten out for the Spring Festival family dinner for the last three years, and we have enjoyed it no less than eating at home. I don’ t understand why some people refuse to embrace the change.
最近三年，我家都是在外面吃年夜飯的，和在家吃比起來，在外面吃一樣開心。我不理解為什么有些人拒絕接受改變。

Can’ t they admit that the preparations for the dinner are hard work I really don’ t think it’ s worth the effort of spending so much time preparing for a single meal, and then another hour cleaning up the mess after it’ s over. We work all year, so why can’ t one day be about spending time with family and relaxing
難道他們不覺得準備年夜飯很辛苦嗎？花這么長的時間準備一頓飯，然后飯后再花一個小時來收拾，我真心覺得不值。辛苦一年了，為什么不能用這一天的時間陪陪家人，放松一下呢？

② 允許……進入

I really don’t think it’s worth the effort of spending so much time preparing for a single meal, and then another hour cleaning up the mess after it’s over.

Eating out is a good choice and it has nothing to do with loss of traditions. We still have the dinner with the same people, just in a different place. The occasion is more enjoyable without all that tiring cooking, and the dishes taste better!
在外面吃年夜飯是個不錯的選擇，而且這也談不上丟棄傳統(tǒng)。我們還是和同樣的人一起吃飯，只是換了地方而已。不用辛苦地做飯，用餐會更加令人愉悅，而且(飯店的)飯菜味道也更好！

In my opinion, what or where we eat on Spring Festival Eve really doesn’ t matter. Eating out may change the form of this tradition, but the love between the family members sitting around the table together remains the same.
在我看來，除夕夜我們吃什么、在哪里吃并不重要。在外面的飯店吃年夜飯可能會改變這個傳統(tǒng)的表現(xiàn)形式，但是圍坐在餐桌前的家人之間的親情并沒有改變。
現(xiàn)在分詞短語作后置定語

When I was a little boy, the dinner on the eve of Spring Festival was what I looked forward to most. It was not only for the delicious food that we seldom got to eat, but for the opportunity to have our whole family gathered together. I would run around the house, listening to the adults chatting about their year. I’d get under my mother’ s feet in the kitchen, watching her make dumplings.
小時候，我最期待的就是除夕的年夜飯。不僅可以吃到平時難以吃到的美食，而且全家人能有機會團聚在一起。那時我會在家里跑來跑去，聽大人們閑聊他們這一年的情況。我還會纏著在廚房做飯的媽媽，看著她包餃子。
Get under someone's feet" 是一個英語習語，字面意思是「跑到某人腳底下」，實際含義為：妨礙某人、礙手礙腳。
When I was a little boy, the dinner on the eve of Spring Festival was what I looked forward to most.

that 引導的定語從句，修飾the delicious food

Not only is food production important but also taking care of the environment is important.
She’d put tokens in some dumplings: candies for a sweet life and peanuts for a long and healthy one. In the evening, all of us would sit around the table, enjoying the food and being together again. We toasted each other, we laughed, and the simple, homemade dishes tasted more delicious than anything cooked by a top chef.
她會在有些餃子里放一點兒“彩頭”：糖果寓意生活甜美，花生寓意健康長壽。到了晚上，我們都圍坐在餐桌前，享受美食和團聚的樂趣。大家互相敬酒，談笑風生，簡簡單單的家常菜吃起來比頂級廚師做的飯菜都要美味。
I hope my children and their children will still value our memories of preparing the dinner together. To me, the process is even more important than the dinner itself.
