The Lantern Festival

The Lantern Festival falls on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month, usually in February or March in

the Gregorian calendar. As early as the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 25), it had become a

festival with great significance.

This day's important activity is watching lanterns. Throughout the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220),

Buddhism flourished in China. One emperor heard that Buddhist monks would watch sarira, or

remains from the cremation of Buddha's body, and light lanterns to worship Buddha on the 15th

day of the 1st lunar month, so he ordered to light lanterns in the imperial palace and temples to

show respect to Buddha on this day. Later, the Buddhist rite developed into a grand festival among

common people and its influence expanded from the Central Plains to the whole of China.

Till today, the lantern festival is still held each year around the country. Lanterns of various

shapes and sizes are hung in the streets, attracting countless visitors. Children will hold lf-made

or bought lanterns to stroll with on the streets, extremely excited.

"Guessing lantern riddles"is an esntial part of the Festival. Lantern owners write riddles on a

piece of paper and post them on the lanterns. If visitors have solutions to the riddles, they can pull

the paper out and go to the lantern owners to check their answer. If they are right, they will get a

little gift. The activity emerged during people's enjoyment of lanterns in the Song Dynasty

(960-1279). As riddle guessing is interesting and full of wisdom, it has become popular among all

social strata People will eat yuanxiao, or rice dumplings, on this day, so it is also called the

"Yuanxiao Festival."Yuanxiao also has another name, tangyuan. It is small dumpling balls made of

glutinous rice flour with ro petals, same, bean paste, jujube paste, walnut meat, dried fruit,

sugar and edible oil as filling. Tangyuan can be boiled, fried or steamed. It tastes sweet and

delicious. What's more, tangyuan in Chine has a similar pronunciation with "tuanyuan”,

meaning reunion. So people eat them to denote union, harmony and happiness for the family.

In the daytime of the Festival, performances such as a dragon lantern dance, a lion dance, a land

boat dance, a yangge dance, walking on stilts and beating drums while dancing will be staged. On

the night, except for magnificent lanterns, fireworks form a beautiful scene. Most families spare

some fireworks from the Spring Festival and let them off in the Lantern Festival. Some local

governments will even organize a fireworks party. On the night when the first full moon enters the

New Year, people become really intoxicated by the imposing fireworks and bright moon in the

sky.

春节

The Spring Festival is very important to Chine people. In the past，people

could not often have meat，rice or other delicious food. They could only eat the during

the Spring festival. So every year they hoped that the Spring Festival would come soon.

Now， although people‘s life is much better，and we can eat the delicious foods everyday.

People still like the festival. Becau most people can have a long holiday，and we are

free to go on a trip or visit our friends or have parties with our family. In the evenings，we

can have a big meal in the restaurant or stay at home with family and watch the TV

programmes.

I like the Spring Festival very much. How wonderful the Spring

Festival is！

The Chine Spring Festival comes on the first day of the Chine Lunar Year, which is

usually in February. There is a name for each year, such as the dog, the monkey, the tiger or one

of the twelve animals, and this year is the year of the pig.

Before the New Year’s Day, the Chine people usually give their hous a good cleaning

and on the last evening of the old year, all the members of a family will get together and have a

big meal. On the first or cond day of the new year, people usually go to visit their relatives and

friends and give some lucky money to children.

I wish you have a good time during the Spring Festival.

Spring FestivalThe Spring Festival is the most important festival for the Chine people

and is when all family members get together, just like Christmas in the West. All people

living away from home go back, becoming the busiest time for transportation systems of

about half a month from the Spring Festival. Airports, railway stations and long-distance

bus stations are crowded with home returnees.

The Spring Festival falls on the 1st day of the 1st lunar month, often one month later than

the Gregorian calendar. It originated in the Shang Dynasty (c. 1600 BC-c. 1100 BC) from

the people's sacrifice to gods and ancestors at the end of an old year and the beginning of

a new one.

Dragon Boat race Traditions At the center of this festival are the dragon b

oat races. Competing teams drive their colorful dragon boats forward to the rhy

river in order to appea the river dragons so that they would not devour Chu

Yuan.

Ay Taso The time of year of the Dragon Boat Festival, the fifth lunar moon,

has more significance than just the story of Chu Yuan. Many Chine consider t

his time of year an especially dangerous time when extra efforts must be made t

o protect their family from illness. Families will hang various herbs, called A

y Tsao, on their door for protection. The drinking of realgar wine is thought t

o remove poisons from the body. Hsiang Bao are also worn. The sachets contain

various fragrant medicinal herbs thought to protect the wearer from illness.

The Dragon Boat Festival, also called Double Fifth Festival, is celebrated on t

he fifth day of the fifth moon of the lunar calendar. It is one of the most important

Chine festivals, the other two being the Autumn Moon Festival and Chine Ne

w Year。

The origin of this summer festival centers around a scholarly government offici

al named Chu Yuan. He was a good and respected man, but becau of the misd

eeds of jealous rivals he eventually fell into disfavor in the emperor's court。

Unable to regain the respect of the emperor, in his sorrow Chu Yuan threw hi

mlf into the Mi Low river. Becau of their admiration for Chu Yuan, the local pe

ople living adjacent to the Mi Lo River rushed into their boats to arch for him w

hile throwing rice into the waters to appea the river dragons。

Although they were unable to find Chu Yuan, their efforts are still

commemorated today during the Dragon Boat

Festival。 春节作文

《春节的街头》

今天，是中国传统节日——春节。早晨我还没醒，就听到了鞭炮的声音。平

静的社区，今日显得热闹非凡。这热闹的喧嚣，把我的睡意一股脑的全都打撒开

来。于是，起床穿上了新衣服连早饭都来不及吃就冲到门外，看着各家各户的炮

竹，烟花。接着就是跟爸爸妈妈一起去走街串巷——拜年！

“李伯伯，新年快乐”“王阿姨，工作顺了”“刘奶奶，身体健康”〃〃〃跟

所有的长辈们拜过年之后，妈妈提议说：一会，去街上看看，感受下新年的气氛。

一上街，街上可就更热闹了。人们手里有提着大袋大袋的菜，身边的孩子手

上握着一大把小花炮，蹦蹦跳跳地跑着。看！我左边的一位四、五岁左右的小女

孩，跑到前面去。一下子又转过头对一位满手是鼓鼓的袋子的大人喊着：“爸爸，

快点！我要回去放炮玩呢！”。有拿着那边超市发的小气球的，红的，黄的，绿

的，还有蓝的。也有三五成群，手挽着手说说笑笑的姑娘们，小伙子们，忙绿了

一年，辛苦了一年，我想这个时候应该是大家最放松，最高兴的时候。你看，路

灯上还挂着两个小红灯，喜气洋洋的。就像在说，“我们也要过新年，我们也要

过新年”。

一进菜市场，那才更热闹呢！人流窜动，一眼望去，什么也看不见，全是人。

还有那翠绿的黄瓜，可真新鲜哪，你看，那金黄色的小花在太阳的照射下显得多

么的生机勃勃啊。那鲫鱼，鲢鱼，青鱼，草鱼等等在水里游来游去，真是印证了

我们中国的老话：年年有鱼（余）！黄的韭菜，红的番茄，黑的木耳，白的萝卜〃〃〃真

是要什么有什么呀。“哎哟！可真够挤的。”我嘀咕了一句。跟着妈妈买了几个

我爱吃的菜，结完帐就走出了菜场。超市里的收银台前也早已排起了长龙。

傍晚时分，街上，又渐渐安静下来。店主们把店子关了，超市也比往常早了

些许关门。大家都提着东西回家过年去了。

到了晚上6点左右，社区渐渐安静，孩子们都回家吃团圆饭去了。吃完团圆

饭7、8点的样子社区又重新热闹起来。孩子们全都出来放花炮了。这个放个“降

落伞，”那个又放个“天女撒花”〃〃〃〃各式各样的花炮全有。每放完一个都

会聚集好几个孩子，他们在讨论谁的花炮最美丽，谁的花炮颜色最多，之后又是

阵阵欢笑。大人们或几个坐在一起打牌，打麻将；或几个坐在一起嗑瓜子，剥花

生；或看着自己的孩子放花炮，偶尔还要帮他们一下。大多数的孩子，都是自己

独立操作完成。

夜，更深了。人们陆陆续续的回家了，有些不肯回家的孩子也在父母的劝说

下，不情愿的回了家，一天的热闹景象渐渐被夜幕包围。我不禁感叹又是一年到，

时间过得可真快呀！

春节见闻

“当、当、当”新年的钟声敲响了，家家户户的门上早已贴上了或火红或金

黄的对联，每一家的老老少少都乐得合不拢嘴。兴奋的孩子们有的目不转睛地盯

着电视，品尝着一年一度的晚会大餐――春节晚会；有的急着给自己的长辈拜年，

发短信，打电话，所有新年的祝福话语仿佛怎么也说不完；调皮的孩子正在向自

己的父辈们 “讨要”压岁钱；屋外的鞭炮声此起彼伏，炸开了锅，五彩的烟花

更是把这个特殊的夜晚点缀得绚丽多姿。

正月初一，农历新年的第一天迎着人们的喜悦祥和而来。我这个平时最赖床

的懒汉，今天却起了个大早，因为我极想穿上我那美丽的新衣，出去好好炫耀一

翻。我要去走亲访友拜新年了，这无疑也是一件高兴的事。我们小孩子走在拜年

队伍的前面，见到长辈们拜个年，说几句吉利话，就可以收获一大把的压岁钱，

然后拿到街上去买自己喜爱的东西――玩具、零食、鞭炮……，家长好像变了个

人似的，对我们的放纵是那么的宽容，一切都有了！这就是过年的感觉。

“放鞭炮喽！”不知是谁喊了一声，小孩子们很快都聚在了一起。一串串鞭

炮在人们手中点燃，响声震天，四处飞溅，仿佛要把一个个美好的愿望送到千家

万户。一阵阵炮竹声接连不断，热闹非凡。

到了吃饭的时候，望着满桌子平时最爱吃的菜肴，我们小孩子却一点儿也不觉得

饿。大人们在推杯换盏之间，谈论最多是：今非昔比啊！今天的幸福生活从餐桌

上最能说明问题，现在人们生活好了，天天就像在过年！

奔波在走亲访友的路途上，我见到了春意盎然的田间大地，一条条新修的高

速公路缩短了我们的行程，通往乡村的泥巴路也被“村村通”的水泥路所覆盖，

城市高楼大厦像雨后春笋，一年一个变化……

春节对于我们小孩子来说，那就是一切都在变化，一切都是新的！
