B: Will you see your family and friends?

A: Yes, it will be a good chance to see everybody again.

Notes:

1. 记住怎样用I would like ... / 我想……(或者它的缩略形式 Id like ... / 我想……) 后接不定式或名词来表达将来的意愿和希望。例如：Id like to have a break. 我想休息一下。

2. 你可以用简单的问句来谈论将来的情况，以What will ...? 你将做……?例如：What will you do at the weekend? 这个周末你将做什么？

1. 国庆节（National Day ）是一个国家最隆重的政治性节日。在世界100多个国家中，称“国庆节”或“国庆日”（National Day）的有中国等约40 个国家；称“独立日”或“独立节”（Independence Day）的有美国、墨西哥、菲律宾、缅甸等约60个国家；称“共和日”或“共和国日”（Republic Day）的有南斯拉夫、冰岛等国家；另外还有称“日”、“联合日（Union Day）”、“成立日”、“革命节（Revolution Day）”等的，真是形形色色，五花八门。

2. 通常要表示“庆祝”节日，我们都用celebrate 这个词。比如：

Chinese people are going to celebrate their National Day on October 1.

要表示“以……方式庆祝”，我们通常说：

We celebrated the New Year with a dance party.

如果要说“庆祝活动”，通常用celebration 这个词。庆祝活动通常是不止一个了，所以还有celebrations。比如：

Im sure the Times Square celebrations cost a lot of money.

3. 最后，再来学几个有关国庆节的表达：

National Day is coming. 国庆节快到了。

National Day falls on wednesday this year. 今年国庆节是星期三。

October 1st is Chinas National Day. 十月一日是中国的国庆节。

Its a fortnight to National Day. 离国庆节还有两个星期。
