中秋節到了，
在大家闔家團圓吃月餅的時候，
是不是應該先學習一下與中秋有關的表達呢?
A mooncake is a Chinese bakery product traditionally eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival. The festival is about lunar appreciation and Moon watching, and mooncakes are regarded as an indispensable delicacy. Mooncakes are offered between friends or on family gatherings while celebrating the festival. The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the four most important Chinese festivals.
月餅是中國烘焙食品，通常在中秋節期間享用。中秋節是賞月的節日，月餅被認為是不可或缺的美食。月餅是在朋友之間或在家庭聚會上慶祝節日時提供的。中秋節是中國四個最重要的節日之一。
Typical mooncakes are round pastries, measuring about 10 cm in diameter and 3–4 cm thick, and are commonly eaten in the Southern and Northern Chinese regions. A rich thick filling usually made from red bean or lotus seed paste is surrounded by a thin, 2–3 mm (approximately 1/8th of an inch) crust and may contain yolks from salted duck eggs. Today, it is customary for businessmen and families to present them to their clients or relatives as presents, helping to fuel a demand for high-end mooncakes.
