   The Two Different Ways of British leisure life
英國人的兩種不同的休閑方式

   British people are always famous for their conservative nature. Nevertheless,they also have some interesting ways to enjoy themselves.

  英國人素來以保守聞名。不過,儘筦這樣,他們仍舊會以有趣的方式享受生活。

   Club life started with coffee drinking which began around 1650.Limited to fifty,list of membership of this club includes prominent members of the Commons and the Lords and other distinguished people.However, one of the famous clubs is a non-political club and was given the name the Other Club because its aims always to hear the other man's point of view.

  俱樂部的生活開始於1650年-咖啡成為飲品的時候。由於俱樂部的成員要求控制為50人,所以成員都是上、下議員中的頭頭腦腦和一些達觀顯貴。不過,仍舊有一個最著名的非政治性的俱樂部叫"別人俱樂部",因為她的宗旨是"傾聽別人的呼聲。"

   In contrast with club,there is the popular Pancake Day.It is on the first day of Lent, and usually occurs between February 2 and March 8. It is believed to remind that butter and eggs were forbidden during Lent and housewives were anxious to use up all they had left before the start of the frugal period.

  和俱樂部相比較,明顯不同的是人們非常熟悉的烤餅節。烤餅節在大齋節的第一天,通常在二月二和三月八日間。人們認為此節日是用來紀唸齋戒日裏禁止食用黃油和雞蛋類的。過去,在齋戒日前,傢庭主婦總是匆匆忙忙地把所有的黃油和雞蛋都吃完。
