Good Evening! I am honored to be invited to your seminar. For me, for my colleagues and many other Chinese, Princeton has long been a familiar name. It has a longer history than that of the country. As the former President Bill Clinton said in 1996 in celebration of the 250 anniversary of Princeton: “At every pivotal moment in American history, Princeton, its leadership and its student s have played a crucial role.” I am more pleased to learn that all of you have a keen interest in China.I hope that today’s seminar will help you gain a better understanding of China and its foreign policy, thus further deepening our friendship and cooperation.

3.对于全世界的华人来说，农历新年（又称春节）无疑是全年最重要的节日。这个华人传统源自大约3000年前，它代表着旧的一年平安过去了，人们准备大事庆祝和迎接新的一年。除夕夜的团圆饭是整个年头里最具有意义的一餐。所有大家庭的成员都会聚集一堂，远在他乡的也会尽量赶回来。团圆饭显示了家庭在华人文化里的重要地位，它可以增强家庭凝聚力。

To all the Chinese people in the world, Lunar New Year (also called Spring Festival) is undoubtedly the most important festival in the whole year. This Chinese tradition dates back about 3000 years ago. It represents that people pass the old year peacefully and prepare for big celebration to welcome the New Year. The reunion dinner in the New Year’s eve is the most significant dinner in a year. All the family members will get together; even those who are far from home will come back as soon as possible. The reunion dinner shows the important position of family in Chinese culture. It can enhance the sense of togetherness.

4.人们庆祝农历新年的方式，体现了两个重要的核心价值观。首先，多代同堂的家庭成员，齐聚一起享受一顿丰盛的团圆饭，是每一个人都会遵守的习惯。准备一顿丰盛晚餐的工作当然是落在家中女成员的身上，比较富裕的家庭则可能有佣人帮忙。其次，亲戚朋友间也会兴高采烈互访。这样的欢庆方式，有助于加强亲情和友情。

The ways people celebrate the Lunar New Year embodies two important core values. The first value is the sense of family togetherness; members of multi-generation families are all there to have a big reunion dinner. Everyone will follow this custom. The female members are always held responsible for preparing the dinner, and some rich families may take on extra hands. The second value lies in the happy visits mutually made between friends and relatives. The ways of celebration strengthen kinship and friendship.
