谈到清明节，有点历史知识的人，都会联想到历史人物介子椎。据历史记

载，在两千多年以前的春秋时代，晋国公子重耳逃亡在外，生活艰苦，跟随他的介

子椎不惜从自己的腿上割下一块肉让他充饥。后来，重耳回到晋国，作了国君(即

晋文公，春秋五霸之一)，大事封赏所有跟随他流亡在外的随从，惟独介子椎拒绝

接受封赏，他带了母亲隐居绵山。

晋文公无计可施，只好放火烧山，他想，介子椎孝顺母亲，一定会带着老

母出来。谁知这场大火却把介子椎母子烧死了。为了纪念介子椎，晋文公下令每年

的这一天，禁止生火，家家户户只能吃生冷的食物，这就是寒食节的来源。

寒食节是在清明节的前一天，古人常把寒食节的活动延续到清明，久而久

之，清明取代了寒食节。拜介子椎的习俗也变成了清明扫墓的习俗了。无论以何种

形式纪念，为了使纪念祖先的仪式更有意义，我们应该让年轻一代的家庭成员了解

先人过去的奋斗历史，当然，还要学习介子椎宁死不屈的.气节。
