求 老舍 北京的春节 英文版 谁会翻译或者谁有网址！
0644翻译：北京的春节（老舍）
Translation: Spring Festival of Beijing (Lao She)
(translated by: alexcwlin; edited by: Adam Lam)
照北京的老规矩，春节差不多在腊月的初旬就开始了。
According to established custom of Beijing, Spring Festival starts during the first ten days of the last lunar calendar month.
“腊七腊八，冻死寒鸦”，
There is an old saying: “Temperature on 7th and 8th of last lunar month could freeze jackdaw to death”.
这是一年里最冷的时候。
This is the coldest period of the year.
在腊八这天，家家都熬腊八粥。
On this 8th day of the last lunar month practically every family cooks Laba Rice Porridge.
粥是用各种米，各种豆，与各种干果熬成的。
This porridge simmers for a long time with ingredients of different types of rice, beans and dried fruits in water.
这不是粥，而是小型的农业展览会。
You can say this is not porridge, but a small-scale agricultural product exhibition.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
除此之外，这一天还要泡腊八蒜。
Beside this, people usually pickle Laba garlics on this day.
把蒜瓣放进醋里，封起来，为过年吃饺子用。
They put garlics inside vinegar and seal up the container until Chinese New Year when the pickled garlics will be eaten with dumplings.
到年底，蒜泡得色如翡翠，醋也有了些辣味，
At the end of the lunar year, the pickled garlics would be green as jadeite and the vinegar would be a bit spicy-hot.
色味双美，使人忍不住要多吃几个饺子。
Both the color and taste of the garlics are so appetizingly appealing that people couldn’t help but eat a few more dumplings at the same time.
在北京，过年时，家家吃饺子。
During Chinese New Year in Beijing, all families eat dumplings.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
孩子们准备过年，第一件大事就是买杂伴儿。
When children are getting ready for Chinese New Year, the first important thing they would do is to buy Mixed Nuts Candy.
这是用花生、胶枣、榛子、栗子等干果与蜜饯掺和成的。
This is made of mixing together peanuts, cooked jujubes, hazelnuts, chestnuts, other dried fruits, and honey-preserved fruits.
孩子们喜欢吃这些零七八碎儿。
Children like eating these snacks.
第二件大事是买爆竹，特别是男孩子们。
The second important thing they would do is to buy firecrackers—particularly for boys.
恐怕第三件事才是买各种玩意儿——风筝、空竹、口琴等。
I am afraid buying different playthings, such as kites, diabolos, harmonicas, etc., would only be the third thing on the to-do list.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
孩子们欢喜，大人们也忙乱。
Children love this time of the year, and adults are busy scrambling to get ready.
他们必须预备过年吃的、喝的、穿的、用的，
They have to prepare for food, drinks, clothes, and things for use during Chinese New Year.
好在新年时显出万象更新的气象。
It is an opportune time during the New Year that all things are going to have an air of turning refreshingly new.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
腊月二十三过小年，差不多就是过春节的“彩排”。
The 23rd day of the last lunar month is more or less a “rehearsal” for Spring Festival.
天一擦黑，鞭炮响起来，便有了过年的味道。
Once it gets dark, sounds of strings of exploding firecrackers would furnish a flavor of Chinese New Year.
这一天，是要吃糖的，街上早有好多卖麦芽糖与江米糖的，
Anyone looking for candies to eat on this day can find vendors of barley-sugar candies and glutinous rice-candies on the street.
糖形或为长方形或为瓜形，又甜又黏，小孩子们最喜欢。
These sweet and sticky candies are fashioned into shapes of rectangles or melons, and are definitely children’s favorites.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
过了二十三，大家更忙。
Once the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar-month is over, people get even busier.
必须大扫除一次，还要把肉、鸡、鱼、青菜、年糕什么的都预备充足
They have to do a thorough cleanup of their houses and stock up enough in meat, chickens, fish, vegetables, New Year rice-cakes and others.
——店铺多数正月初一到初五关门，到正月初六才开张。
Shops mostly close between the 1st to the 5th day of the new lunar year and do not open until the 6th.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
除夕真热闹。
Chinese New Year Eve is really lively.
家家赶做年菜，
All families hasten to prepare New Year dishes.
到处是酒肉的香味。
Everywhere is permeated with the pleasant smell of wine and cooked meat.
男女老少都穿起新衣，
People of all ages wear new clothes on this day.
门外贴上了红红的对联，屋里贴好了各色的年画，
Red lucky spring couplets are plastered on the outside of doors and New Year luck-wishing drawings of various colors are posted inside houses.
除夕夜家家灯火通宵，不许间断，
Lamps are lit, without interruption, throughout the night during Chinese New Year Eve.
鞭炮声日夜不绝。
Firecracker sounds can be heard all day and night.
在外边做事的人，除非万不得已，必定赶回家来吃团圆饭。
People working far away from hometowns would, unless circumstances dictate otherwise, come home for the family get-together dinners on Chinese New Year Eve.
这一夜，除了很小的孩子，没有什么人睡觉，都要守岁。
On this night, with the exception of very small children, hardly anybody would sleep and they would stay up all night as a custom.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
正月初一的光景与除夕截然不同：
The scene on the first day of the New Lunar Year is completely different from that during Chinese New Year Eve.
铺户都上着板子，
Shops are closed with planks covering up the fronts.
门前堆着昨夜燃放的爆竹纸皮，
Firecracker paper bits from last night are strewn in front of doors.
全城都在休息。
The entire city is taking a rest.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
男人们午前到亲戚家、朋友家拜年。
Men go to homes of relatives and friends before noon to extend Chinese New Year well-wishes.
女人们在家中接待客人。
Women stay home to greet visitors.
城内城外许多寺院举办庙会，
Many temples inside and outside of the city are holding temple-fairs.
小贩们在庙外摆摊卖茶、食品和各种玩具。
Street vendors set up stands to sell tea, food and toys outside of the temples.
小孩子们特别爱逛庙会，为的是有机会到城外看看野景，可以骑毛驴，还能买到那些新年特有的玩具。
Children particularly love to wander around these temple-fairs because they could have a chance to see wilderness outside of the city, ride donkeys and buy unique New Year toys.
庙会上有赛马的，还有赛骆驼的。
Temple-fairs hold horse races and camel races.
这些比赛并不为争谁第一谁第二，而是在观众面前表演马、骆驼与骑者的美好姿态与娴熟技能。
These races do not compete for first/second positions, but are intended to showcase gracefulness and skills of horses, camels and riders in front of spectators.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
多数铺户在正月初六开张，不过并不很忙，
Most shops open on the 6th day of the New Year but business would not be too busy.
铺中的伙计们还可以轮流去逛庙会、逛天桥和听戏。
Many shop employees could take turns to visit temple-fairs, stroll on overpass bridges and listen to Chinese operas.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
元宵上市，春节的又一个高潮到了。
Glutinous rice dumplings are put on sale and Spring Festival reaches another climatic day.
正月十五，处处张灯结彩，整条大街像是办喜事，红火而美丽。
On the 15th day of the New Year everywhere is decorated with lanterns and colored festoons, as if the whole main street has turned beautifully red in celebration of a happy event.
有名的老铺子都要挂出几百盏灯来，各形各色，
Renowned time-honored shops display several hundreds of hanging lanterns of all types.
有的一律是玻璃的，有的清一色是牛角的，有的都是纱灯，有的通通彩绘全部《红楼梦》或《水浒传》故事。
Often these lanterns are uniformly of the same style, such as glass lanterns, ox-horn lanterns, gauze lanterns, or colorfully painted lanterns with storylines such as “Dream in Red Chamber” or “Outlaws of Marsh”.
这在当年，也是一种广告。
At the time, it is a sort of advertising as well.
灯一悬起，任何人都可以进到铺中参观。
When the lanterns are hung up, anyone can enter the shops to look.
晚上灯中点上烛，观者就更多。
At night when candles are lit inside the lanterns, more spectators would come.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
小孩子们买各种花炮燃放，
Little children buy different kinds of firecrackers to be set off.
即使不跑到街上去淘气，在家中照样能有声有光地玩耍。
Even if these kids don’t go onto the street to cause mischiefs, they could play up a storm just staying home.
家中也有灯：走马灯、宫灯、各形各色的纸灯，还有纱灯，
There are lanterns at home: merry-go-round lanterns, palace lanterns, paper lanterns, and gauze lanterns.
里面有小铃，到时候就叮叮地响。
Some of them have little bells inside which start ringing when certain times come.
这一天大家还必须吃元宵呀！
Also on this day people would eat glutinous rice dumplings.
这的确是美好快乐的日子。
This is indeed a joyous day.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
一眨眼，到了残灯末庙，
In the blink of an eye, lantern lights start to wane and temple-fair activities begin to wind down.
春节在正月十九结束了。
Spring Festival ends on the 19th day of the New Year.
学生该去上学，大人又去照常做事。
Students are going back to school and adults are returning to work as usual.
腊月和正月，在农村正是大家最闲的时候。
The last and first lunar months are the least busy in farm villages.
过了灯节，天气转暖，大家就又去忙着干活了。
After the Lantern Festival, weather turns warm and people get busy making a living.
北京虽是城市，可是它也跟着农村一齐过年，而且过得分外热闹。
Even though Beijing is a city, yet it celebrates Chinese New Year just like a farm village except its activities are more effervescent.

Q1: flutter中shared_preferences和sqflite的选用问题？
sqflite适用于需要排序，筛查数据的需求，是一个完整的数据库。
SP就是一个简单的缓存，都是存在一个文档里的，无法排序查询和单独更新数组的单个对象。
不过Flutter的SP并不好用，缓存的需求建议你使用local_cache_sync这个库，比较易于使用。
