请求高手帮忙翻译一篇文章,非常感激
Most have heard of the American Prom. This is the senior students’ school leaving party. The British name for the event is a Leavers’ Ball or Leavers’ Dinner, although some UK schools call them Proms, too. In Canada, Ireland and Australia the terms Grad or Formal are most common and in South Africa it is called a Matric Dance.
Some Matric Dances in South Africa still follow the old British traditions. Before the dance, pupils are given lessons in dancing. School leavers invite a partner to the dance. The girls have dresses especially made for the event. To save costs the dance is often held in the school hall.
American Proms have become elaborate(精心的)and expensive, complete with luxury hotel ballrooms(豪华的酒店舞厅), live bands and expensive prom dresses. They now include after-Prom activities that often extend into the early morning of the next day.
The Leavers’ Ball in the UK is not so formal(正式). The girls also wear ball gowns and the boys suits. A dinner and disco will be held at a local hotel. Each pupil buys a ticket and can go with a partner or just arrive with friends.

答案和解析
大多数人都听说过美国舞会.也就是高中生的毕业派对.这个舞会的英国名字叫做毕业舞会或者毕业晚宴,尽管一些英国学校也称之为班级舞会.在加拿大,爱尔兰和澳大利亚,毕业生或正式的社交活动的这些术语是最常见的,在南非这叫做开学舞会.
在南非一些开学舞会仍然遵循古代英国的传统.舞会之前,学生会被传授跳舞的课程.学校毕业生邀请一个舞伴参加舞会,女孩需要穿出席舞会的礼服.为节省舞会的开支,舞会通常是在学校大厅里举办.
美国舞会已经成为拥有精致的和昂贵的,配有豪华酒店宴会厅,现场乐队和昂贵的舞会礼服的舞会.现在还包括舞会后的各项活动,舞会通常要延期到第二天早晨.
在英国毕业舞会就没有那么正式了.女孩经常穿舞会袍,男孩穿西装.晚宴和舞会会在当地的酒店里举行.每个学生买一张票就可以和自己的舞伴或者朋友进入会场.
