答案
A Scottish New Year If you’re invited to a Scottish home on New Year’s Eve, / it’s important to know what to bring with you: / a lump of coal, some shortbread and some whisky. / The coal signifies warmth, / so you’re wishing that the people you visit will have enough heat in the coming year. / The shortbread represents food, / so you’re hoping that the people will have enough to eat. / And whisky was called "the water of life" by Scots, / so it means you want the hosts to have enough to drink. / There is one more key task you still have to perform as a guest. / The first person to knock on a neighbour’s door / is supposed to be a tall, dark, handsome man. / If you are, you’ll bring good luck to the household. / But if that’s not you, don’t ring the bell just yet. / Wait for a while and the right person is bound to turn up soon! /
解析
苏格兰新年
要是你新年除夕受邀到苏格兰人家做客,带上以下的这些东西是非常重要的:一块煤,一些奶油甜酥饼和威士忌酒。煤块代表温暖,即祝福主人家在接下来的一年里过上温暖的生活。奶油甜酥饼代表食物,即希望主人家不愁吃。威士忌被苏格兰人称为“生命之水”,送上威士忌就意味着你祝福主人家不愁喝。
