【翻译部分】
冬至是全年白昼最长，黑夜最短的一天，标志着一年中最寒冷时节的开始。东至过后，气温越来越低，人们户外活动逐渐减少，农民地里的活不多，主要忙于灌溉系统的维护和主要农作物的防冻，同时为来年春天播种做准备。中国人历年来很重视冬至，许多地方都把冬至当作一个节日，庆祝方式不尽相同，北方人有冬至吃饺子的习俗，南方人有冬至吃汤圆的传统。
Winter Solstice is the day with the shortest daytime and the longest nighttime, marking the beginning of the coldest time of a year. From this moment on, the temperature drops continuously, and people gradually reduce their outdoor ac-tivities. Farmers have less work in their field, mainly engag-ing themselves in the maintenance of the irrigation system and the prevention of freezing harm to crops to prepare for the spring sowing in the coming year.
Chinese have always been attaching so much importance to Winter Solstice that it is regarded as a festival in many places, when people celebrate it in different ways. The people in the north have the custom of eating jiaozi and those in the south the tradition of eating tangyuan.
