　　1.除夕夜：即中国农历新年“春节”的前夜，可译为ChineseNew Year's Eve,或者the Eve of the Spring Festival。

　　2.未成年的：可译为underage或者immature。

　　3.一定数额的钱：翻译为a certain sum of cash。“压岁钱”译为lucky money 属于固定搭配，而这里提到的具体的“钱”译为cash则更贴切一些，因为压岁钱一般都是采用现金的形式。

　　4.源远流长，流传至今：翻译为have a long history and spread up to now, 此类常见短语的译法最好记下来，在考试中遇到，可直接套用。

　　5.吉利：即“好的运气”，所以可翻译为good fortune。
