At the conclusion of the day

提供的语境还嫌不足,文中的“day”是普通的“day”?还是特殊的“day”?

从字面上翻译如下:

一天结束的时候(或直接用“傍晚时分”),全体人员回到“部落”中,分享温暖(兴奋)、食物、欢笑,以及这一天所发生的故事。

FYI

  忙完一天后,一队人马班师回朝,在暖暖的环境中,在欢声笑语中,边吃边讲当天发生的趣事。
  注:
  1)由于题目是“舞狮”,所以译文以假定文中所述之事发生在中国为前提。
  2)这里不宜把“share”译作“分享”,但可在译文体现出来。这是英文和中文的习惯问题。比方说我们中国人不说“我和你两人分享这碗粥”,而说“我和你吃一碗”(其中的“粥”字由于语境非常清楚,所以也省去。如果说成“我和你吃一碗粥”,那不仅多余,而且听起来很别扭。
