Notes:
1. 记住怎样用I would like ... / 我想……(或者它的缩略形式 Id like ... / 我想……) 后接不定式或名词来表达将来的意愿和希望。例如:Id like to have a break. 我想休息一下。
2. 你可以用简单的问句来谈论将来的情况,以What will ...? 你将做……?例如:What will you do at the weekend? 这个周末你将做什么?

1. 国庆节(National Day )是一个国家最隆重的政治性节日。在世界100多个国家中,称“国庆节”或“国庆日”(National Day)的有中国等约40 个国家;称“独立日”或“独立节”(Independence Day)的有美国、墨西哥、菲律宾、缅甸等约60个国家;称“共和日”或“共和国日”(Republic Day)的有南斯拉夫、冰岛等国家;另外还有称“日”、“联合日(Union Day)”、“成立日”、“革命节(Revolution Day)”等的,真是形形色色,五花八门。
2. 通常要表示“庆祝”节日,我们都用celebrate 这个词。比如:
Chinese people are going to celebrate their National Day on October 1.
要表示“以……方式庆祝”,我们通常说:
We celebrated the New Year with a dance party.
如果要说“庆祝活动”,通常用celebration 这个词。庆祝活动通常是不止一个了,所以还有celebrations。比如:
Im sure the Times Square celebrations cost a lot of money.
3. 最后,再来学几个有关国庆节的表达:
National Day is coming. 国庆节快到了。
National Day falls on wednesday this year. 今年国庆节是星期三。
October 1st is Chinas National Day. 十月一日是中国的国庆节。
Its a fortnight to National Day. 离国庆节还有两个星期。
