　　中秋节快到了~虽然还有几天，但是相信不少人都早已开始买月饼吃月饼了吧！偷偷问一句，端午的粽子是不是还没吃完？哈哈~月饼的英文比较简单，就是直译的mooncake。但是我们在写作中，有时会遇到传统文化的话题，需要掌握一些相关表达。

　　今天教给大家的是和中秋节相关的话题，首先，中秋节即 Mid-Autumn Festival，月饼 mooncake 是一种点心：pastry，然后我们提及月饼的馅料，用 filling，可以理解为填充物,对于特定的馅料，如豆沙馅、枣泥馅则可以用paste。中秋节是一个团圆的节日，用英语怎么表达“团圆、团聚”?就是今天的热词：reunion。好啦，了解了这些至少可以简单地把中秋这个节日说清楚了，下面一起看看新闻，今年各大厂商都创造了什么新口味月饼?
