参考范文

In my country, birthdays are celebrated every year but the most important birthday for a young girl is the quinceañera, the birthday when she’s fifteen. This is celebrated with a church service. The girl wears a white dress, kind of like a wedding dress, and several attendants accompany her to the altar where the priest talks with her about becoming an adult woman. After the service, the whole family celebrates with friends. And there’s music and dancing and food. Traditionally, only relatives and close friends are invited to the church service, but many more people attend the party afterward. Um, in the old days, the ceremony presented the girl to society for marriage proposals.. but now she’s considered the appropriate age to begin dating.
