The day is the national holiday of Ireland. It is a bank holiday in Northern Ireland and a public holiday in the Republic of Ireland, Montserrat, and the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador. In the rest of Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, the United States and New Zealand, it is widely celebrated but is not an official holiday. It became a feast day in the Roman Catholic Church due to the influence of the Waterford-born Franciscan scholar Luke Wadding in the early part of the 17th century, and is a holy day of obligation for Roman Catholics in Ireland. The date of the feast is occasionally, yet controversially, moved by church authorities when March 17 falls during Holy Week; this happened in 1940 when Saint Patricks Day was observed on April 3 in order to avoid it coinciding with Palm Sunday, and happened again in 2008, having been observed on 14 March. March 17 will not fall during Holy Week again until 2160.,St.Patricks Day St.Patricks Day，圣帕特里克节，为3月17日，以纪念爱尔兰守护神圣帕特里克。这一节日5世纪末期起源于爱尔兰，美国从1737年3月17日开始庆祝。 公元432年，圣帕特里克受教皇派遣前往爱尔兰劝说爱尔兰人皈依基督教。他从威克洛上岸后，当地愤怒的异教徒企图用石头将他砸死。但圣帕特里克临危不惧，当即摘下一棵三叶苜蓿，形象地阐明了圣父、圣子、圣灵三位一体的教义。他雄辩的演说使爱尔兰人深受感动，接受了圣帕特里克主施的隆重洗礼。公元493年3月17日，圣帕特里克逝世，爱尔兰人为了纪念他，将这一天定为圣帕特里克节。 1737年，一些爱尔兰绅士和商人们在美国马萨诸塞州波士顿聚会纪念圣帕特里克，并成立了爱尔兰慈善社团。1780年和1784年，费城和纽约先后成立了圣帕特里克友谊之子等团体，从此美国每年都庆祝这个节日。 美国的圣帕特里克节这一天，人们通常要举行游行、教堂礼拜和聚餐等活动。美国的爱尔兰人喜欢佩带三叶苜蓿，用爱尔兰的国旗颜色绿黄两色装饰房间，身穿绿色衣服，并向宾客赠送三叶苜蓿饰物等。,Hogmanay Time : January 1thRobert Burns Time : January 25th,Scotland,Hogmanay is the Scots word for the last day of the year and is synonymous with the celebration of the New Year (Gregorian calendar) in the Scottish manner. It is, however, normally only the start of a celebration which lasts through the night until the morning of New Years Day (1 January) or, in some cases, 2 January which is a Scottish Bank Holiday.,Hogmanay,Robert Burns,Robert Burns (25 January 1759 21 July 1796) (also known as Rabbie Burns, Scotlands favourite son, the Ploughman Poet, Robden of Solway Firth, the Bard of Ayrshire and in Scotland as simply The Bard)12 was a Scottish poet and a lyricist. He is widely regarded as the national poet of Scotland, and is celebrated worldwide. He is the best known of the poets who have written in the Scots language, although much of his writing is also in English and a “light“ Scots dialect, accessible to an audience beyond Scotland. He also wrote in standard English, and in these his political or civil commentary is often at its most blunt. He is regarded as a pioneer of the Romantic movement, and after his death he became a great source of inspiration to the founders of both liberalism and socialism. A cultural icon in Scotland and among the Scottish Diaspora around the world, celebration of his life and work became almost a national charismatic cult during the 19th and 20th centuries, and his influence has long been strong on Scottish literature. In 2009 he was voted by the Scottish public as being the Greatest Scot, through a vote run by Scottish television channel STV. As well as making original compositions, Burns also collected folk songs from across Scotland, often revising or adapting them. His poem (and song) Auld Lang Syne is often sung at Hogmanay (the last day of the year), and Scots Wha Hae served for a long time as an unofficial national anthem of the country. Other poems and songs of Burns that remain well-known across the world today include A Red, Red Rose; A Mans A Man for A That; To a Louse; To a Mouse; The Battle of Sherramuir; Tam o Shanter, and Ae Fond Kiss.,HalloweenTime : October 31th,Scotland,Easter Sunday (复活节),复活节（主复活日）是一个西方的重要节日，在每年春分月圆之后第一个星期日。基督徒认为，复活节象征着重生与希望，为纪念耶稣基督于公元30到33年之间被钉死在十字架之后第三天复活的日子。 复活节的习俗 在西方，与复活节相关的物品有复活节兔和复活节彩蛋。传说复活节彩蛋都是兔子的蛋，实际上，兔子是不会下蛋的，所以复活节彩蛋其实都是鸡蛋，有些人喜欢在蛋上画各种各样的鬼脸或花纹。而这些民间风俗都是起源于非基督教。,
