　　請將下麵這段話翻譯成英文：

　　自上世紀90年代後期起，七夕節(the Double SeventhFestival )開始被稱為“中國的情人節”。這個節日可以追溯到漢朝，當時對戀人、女孩都是個特殊的日子。這天，女孩會舉行儀式，向織女(Zhinv)乞求智慧、技藝和美滿婚姻，所以七夕節還被稱為“乞巧節(the Begging for SkillsFestival)”。如今，一些傳統習俗已經弱化。人們現在把七夕節當作浪漫的情人節來慶祝，尤其是在年輕人中間。

　　參考譯文：

　　The Double Seventh Festival has been called Chinese Valentine's Day since the late 1990s. The festival can be traced back to the Han Dynasty. It was then a special day not only for lovers, but also for girls.Girls would hold a ceremony to beg Zhinv for wisdom, skills and a satisfying marriage. So it is also called “the Begging for Skills Festival”.Today some traditional customs have been weakened. Now the festival is celebrated as a romantic valentine's day, particularly among young people.
