A number of panda cubs in a Chinese reserve have made their public debut in a celebration of the upcoming Lunar New Year. The 10 baby pandas, who range in age from four to six months, appeared in a playground at the China Conservation and Research Centre for Giant Panda in the country’s southwest Sichuan province.

为庆祝即将到来的农历新年，中国保护区的一批熊猫幼崽首次公开亮相。2月4日，10只年龄在4到6个月不等的熊猫宝宝在中国大熊猫保护研究中心登场与大家见面。

The black-and-white cubs appeared to play up to the crowd, with one appearing shy and covering its face with its paws, and another attempting to crawl away from a keeper before being caught. Their keepers, some holding pandas, shouted: 'Newborn baby pandas from the class of 2020… wish you a happy New Year and lots of good luck in the Year of the Ox.’

黑白幼崽好像在跟人们卖萌，一只用爪子遮脸，看上去可害羞了，另一只试图逃开饲养员的“魔爪”溜走。他们的饲养员有些手里抱着大熊猫，一齐喊道：“ 2020级新生大熊猫……祝您新年快乐，牛年万事如意。”

The baby pandas were seen alongside Chinese New Year decorations including lanterns, flags and traditional Chinese knots. Bamboo baskets of snacks had been prepared for the pandas, with the Chinese character 'fu’, meaning good fortune and blessings, written on the outside. Some were curious about the baskets of treats and attempted to get inside then. It mimics the Chinese tradition of adults giving red envelopes with money inside to children during the Lunar New Year to pass them good wishes and blessings.

可以看到熊猫宝宝旁边有农历新年装饰，包括灯笼，旗子和传统的中国结。工作人员已经为熊猫们准备了“竹篓红包”，里面装有宝宝们的零食，外包装上写着福字，寓意吉祥和福气。熊猫宝宝对零食“红包”特别好奇，总尝试爬进去。这就跟长辈们在农历新年期间给孩子们发红包是一样的，旨在传递良好祝愿和祝福。

As of December, there were 44 panda cubs worldwide, with more than half of them bred in China. The centre said that the cubs making their public debut on Wednesday had all resulted from natural mating. The country has prided itself on its efforts to preserve a species that was endangered for many years. Pandas are also a symbol of China and part of its cultural diplomacy.

截至12月，全球共有44只熊猫幼崽，其中有一半以上是在中国繁殖的。该中心说，这批在周三公开亮相幼崽都是来自于自然交配。我国为保护濒危物种的努力而感到自豪。熊猫也是中国的象征，也是中国文化外交的一部分。
