　　Memorial Day in US

　　美国:鸣枪悼念阵亡烈士

　　Memorial Day is a US national holiday observed on the last Monday of May. It commemorates those who died while in military service to their country. Soldiers in service and veterans go to cemeteries to pay respect to their dead peers by firing guns and blowing trumpets. First enacted to honor American soldiers and casualties in the civil war, the 2 World Wars and other military actions, it later evolved as a popular civil festival for each family to commemorate the passing of their loved ones.

　　美国的阵亡烈士日通常在每年5月的最后一个周一，是法定假日。每逢这个日子，美国现役军人和老战士便前往墓地，鸣枪并吹响军中熄灯号，让死难将士安息。此节日最初用来纪念在南北战争和两次世界大战中战死的兵士，后来逐渐发展为一般家庭祭奠逝去的亲人。
