+ 加入清单There are many different beliefs about the origin of the Lantern Festival.
But one thing for sure is that it had something to do with celebrating and
cultivating positive relationship between people, families, nature and the
higher beings they believed were responsible for bringing/returning the light
each year.
One legend tells us that it was a time to worship Taiyi, the God of Heaven
in ancient times. The belief was that the God of Heaven controlled the destiny
of the human world. He had sixteen dragons at his beck and call and he decided
when to inflict drought, storms, famine or pestilence upon human beings.
Beginning with Qinshihuang, the first emperor to unite the country, all the
emperors ordered splendid ceremonies each year. The emperor would ask Taiyi to
bring favorable weather and good health to him and his people. Emperor Wudi of
the Han Dynasty directed special attention to this event. In 104 BC, he
proclaimed it as one of the most important celebrations and the ceremony would
last throughout the night. They clean it all up in the morning.
Another legend associates the Lantern Festival with Taoism. Tianguan is the
Taoist god responsible for good fortune. His birthday falls on the 15th day of
the first lunar month. It is said that Tianguan likes all types of
entertainment, so followers prepare various kinds of activities during which
they pray for good fortune.
Yet another common legend dealing with the origins of the Lantern Festival
speaks of a beautiful bird that flew down to earth from heaven, which was hunted
and killed by some villagers. This angered the Jade Emperor in Heaven because
the bird was his favorite one. Therefore, he planned a storm of fire to destroy
the village on the 15th lunar day. The Jade Emperors daughter heard of this
plan, and warned the villagers of her father’s plan to destroy their village.
The village was in turmoil because nobody knew how should they escape their
imminent destruction.
However, a wise man from another village suggested that every family should
hang red lanterns around their houses, set up bonfires on the streets, and
explode firecrackers on the 14th, 15th, and 16th lunar days. This would give the
village the appearance of being on fire to the Jade Emperor. On the 15th lunar
day, troops sent down from heaven whose mission was to destroy the village saw
that the village was already ablaze, and returned to heaven to report to the
Jade Emperor. Satisfied, the Jade Emperor decided not to burn down the village.
From that day on, people celebrate the anniversary on the 15th lunar day every
year by carrying red lanterns on the streets and exploding firecrackers and
fireworks.
There are many stories on how this festival was created. One other story is
about a maid. In the Han Dynasty, Mr. Eastern was a favorite advisor of the
emperor. One winter day, he went to the garden and heard a little girl crying
and getting ready to jump into a well to commit suicide. Mr. Eastern stopped her
and asked why. She said she was a maid in the emperors palace and her name was
Yuan-Xiao.
She never had the chance to meet her family after she started worked at the
palace. She missed them so much every 12th lunar month. If she couldnt have the
chance to show her filial piety in this life, she would rather die. Mr. Eastern
promised her to find a way so she could reunion with her family. Mr. Eastern
left the palace and set up a fortune-telling stall on the street and disguised
himself as a fortuneteller. Because of his reputation, many people asked for
their fortunes.
But every one got the same prediction - a severe fire accident on the 15th
lunar day. The rumor spread quickly. Everyone was worried about the future and
asked Mr. Eastern for help. Mr. Eastern said, "On the 13th lunar day, the God of
Fire will send a fairy lady in red to burn down the city. If you see a lady in
red wearing green pants riding a black horse on that day, you should ask for her
mercy." On that day, Yuan-Xiao pretended to be the red fairy lady. When people
asked for her help, she said, "Im the messenger of the God of Fire and came to
check on the city and Im going to set up fire on 15th. This is an order from
Jade Emperor. He will watch from the heavens.
I will give you a copy of the imperial decree from the God of Fire. You
should go to ask your emperor to find a way out." After she left, people went to
the palace to show the emperor the decree which reads "The capital city is in
trouble. Fire burns on the palace, and fire from Heaven burns all night long on
the 15th." The emperor of Han Dynasty was very shocked. He called and asked Mr.
Eastern for advice. After pondering for a while, Mr. Eastern said, "I heard that
the God of Fire likes to eat Tang-Yuan (Sweet dumpling). Does Yuan-Xiao often
cook Tang-Yuan for you? On the 15th lunar day, let Yuan-Xiao make Tang-Yuan.
Your Majesty will take charge of the worshipping ceremony and you will give
an order to every house to prepare Tang-Yuan to worship the God of Fire at the
same time. Also, deliver another order to ask every house in the city to hang
red lantern and explode fire crackers. Lastly, everyone in the palace and people
outside the city should carry their lanterns on the street to watch the lantern
decoration and fireworks. If everything goes this way, the Jade Emperor would be
deceived.
Then everyone can avoid the fire accident." The emperor happily followed
the plan. Lanterns were everywhere in the capital city on the night of the 15th
lunar day. People were walking on the street. Fire crackers kept making lots of
noise. It looked like the entire city was on fire. Yuan-Xiaos parents went into
the palace to watch the lantern decorations, and Yuan-Xiao made a big lantern
and wrote her name on the lantern. They happily reunited together after her
parents called her name. Everybody was safe during the night. The emperor of Han
Dynasty had a new order that people should do the same thing every year. Since
Yuan-Xiao cooked the best Tan-Yuan, people called the day Yuan-Xiao
Festival.
Young people were chaperoned in the streets in hopes of finding love.
Matchmakers acted busily in hopes of pairing couples. The brightest lanterns
were symbolic of good luck and hope. As time has passed, the festival no longer
has such implications.
Those who do not carry lanterns often enjoy watching informal lantern
parades. In addition to eating tangyuan (simplified Chinese: 汤圆; traditional
Chinese: 湯圓; pinyin: tāngyuán), another popular activity at this festival is
guessing lantern riddles (which became part of the festival during the Tang
Dynasty), which often contain messages of good fortune, family reunion, abundant
harvest, prosperity and love.

篇3：关于网购英语作文高中
全文共 938 字
+ 加入清单Which is better, shopping online or traditional shopping? Different people
have different attitudes towards it. Some people think that online shopping is
very convenient, for it can save them a lot of time and energy. It’s especially
helpful for those who are always busy with their work. Besides, through the
internet, they can get more information about the commodities they want to buy
and buy a lot of things that cannot be bought in local places.
Nevertheless, I’m not keen on online shopping at all, since most
commodities which are bought online are of poor quality. Once we are cheated, we
may find it difficult to make a complaint. Thus we should take more cautions
when shopping online.
In my eyes, I prefer traditional shopping, because I can choose what I
really need. Also, I can know the quality of every commodity more clearly. Even
if there’s something wrong with the commodities, I can still ask the sellers to
compensate for my loss.
篇4：关于代沟英语作文高中

+ 加入清单The generation gap is unavoidable in almost every family, which brings
about a number of conflicts in a family. In my opinion, to limit the bad effects
of the generation gap, each family should use the following three methods:
First of all, it is important that family members discuss openly about
their pleasures or sadness in childhood in family gatherings. This activity does
not only create a close relationship but also help build up understanding among
all members. For instance, once children are aware that their grandparents and
even their parents did not have a good upbringing during their hard childhood,
they will stop complaining about the previous generations’ obsoleteness. In the
meantime, once old people realize young people are nurtured in a new modern way,
it is easy for them to be tolerant of young people’s new habits or hobbies.
Secondly, people of each generation should not develop a very high feeling
about themselves. In order to do that, they should not think that they are the
only right people in their family because each person has his or her own
limitations. Teenagers would realize that their parents have to struggle with
pain to support them financially, and they would stop rebelling their
strictness. Parents would realize that their children’s new style does no harm
to their studies and stop imposing their own unsuitable standards on their
children.
Finally, the generation gap and its bad effects can be limited if all
members cooperate to build up a close-knit family relationship and a harmonious
atmosphere in which they are open and tolerant of each other. I strongly believe
that each family, by doing that, can enjoy a cozy atmosphere with minimum
interference by the generation gap.

society, most people have more and more things to do and have less time to

+ 加入清单Nowadays peoples life develops quite rapidly. Many things have changed
over the last century. Old buildings are relaced by skyscrapers. Telephone,
air-conditioner, TV, digital camera, computer and the Internet have taken their
place in our life. We have stepped into Information Age. We are always enjoying
the newest digital products. With all these hi-tech products, people are leading
a more and more colorful life. They are enjoying life more than ever in their
spare time. They can watch movies, surf the Internet, take a holiday and so on.
How different the present life is from the previous one when people couldnt
even feed themselves. Whats more, it differs a lot as well in transportation.
Various modern means of transpot have taken the place of human feet and horses.
People can take aeroplanes, subways, even maglevs and so on. They offer people
much convenience. That is to say, people neednt feel worried for wasting a
great deal of time travelling any more. However, while people are enjoying the
changes caused by hi-tech, something still remains the same. For example, those
traditional customs and festivals, especially the custom that people gather to
have dinner as well as ethical culture forms like Peking Opera, ancient
architecture and traditional food. Peking Opera is spreading throughout. As to
ancient architecture like Siheyuan and Hutong, people are still preserving them
well as the symbol of the whole nationalitys historical culture. As for
traditional food, people are still used to eating it. Even though the world has
been extremely highly developed and there are many foreign cultures are pouring
into China, traditional food is still the mainstream. So, I think, although
those hi-tech products bring along unprecedented creature comfort, traditional
cultures will stay unchanged and they will develop further. And on the original
basis, it must creat miracles one after another, because it belongs to the souls
of our Chinese nationality.

篇10：茶文化英语作文高1

+ 加入清单When a guest comes to my home from afar on a cold night, I light bamboo to
boil tea to offer him. Ancient Chinese poem.China is the home country of tea.
Before the Tang Dynasty, Chinese tea was exported by land and sea, first to
Japan and Korea, then to India and Central Asia and, in the Ming and Qing
dynasties, to the Arabian Peninsula. In the early period of the 17th century,
Chinese tea was exported to Europe, where the upper class adopted the fashion of
drinking tea. Chinese tea like Chinese silk and china has become synonymous
worldwide with refined culture. At the heart of the culture of tea the study and
practice of tea in all its aspects is the simple gesture of offering a cup of
tea to a guest that for Chinese people today is a fundamental social custom, as
it has been for centuries.China traces the development of tea as an art form to
Lu Yu, known as the Saint of Tea in Chinese history, who lived during the Tang
Dynasty and who wrote The Book of Tea, the first ever treatise on tea and tea
culture. The spirit of tea permeates Chinese culture, and throughout the country
there are many kinds of teas, teahouses, tea legends, tea artifacts and tea
customs. Better-known places to enjoy a good cup of tea in China include Beijing
noted for its variety of teahouses; Fujian and Guangdong provinces and other
places in the southeast of China that serve gongfu tea, a formal serving of tea
in tiny cups; the West Lake in Hangzhou, also the home of the Tea Connoisseurs
Association, noted for its excellent green tea; and provinces in southwest China
like Yunnan where the ethnic groups less affected by foreign cultures retain tea
ceremonies and customs in original tea-growing areas.
篇11：关于教育的英语
全文共 1175 字
+ 加入清单Do your teachers still use traditional techniques to teach you nowadays? A
revol- ution in teaching techniques is required now. In the past, we just took
it for granted that a teacher s aim was to teach the students all that he knew
and solve all the problems for them. Therefore, students could mot judge things
on their own under this circumstance. Thus students gradually lost the ability
to learn by themselves. In addition, they were only equipped with the knowledge
that were taught in class and made the same judgement upon every problem which
might crop up. Of course, they would find their knowledge not enough to solve
practical problems.
So it is time to change the teaching method. A teacher s goal is to help
the students develop not only the ability to learn by themselves but the skills
to make judgements on every aspect on their own. It s not necessary for the
students to turn to teachers for help while meeting with difficulties. The first
thing is to develop the students abilities to make sound judgements upon any
problem and overcome difficulties.
All in all, the aim of teaching is to liberate, but mot to fetter the
students innate powers of making sound judgements.

篇15：关于水果英语作文初4
全文共 1949 字
+ 加入清单Of the fruits of the year I give my vote to the orange. In the first place
it is a perennial--if not in actual fact, at least in the greengrocer’s shop. On
the days when dessert is a name given to a handful of chocolates and a little
preserved ginger, when macédoine de fruits is the title bestowed on some raisins
and two prunes, then the orange, however sour, comes nobly to the rescue; and on
those other days of plenty when cherries and strawberries and kiwi-fruits riot
together upon the table, the orange, sweeter than ever, is still there to hold
its own. Bread and rice, beef and mutton, eggs and milk, are not more necessary
to an ordered existence than the orange.
It is well that the commonest fruit should be also the best. Of the virtues
of the orange I have not room fully to speak. It has properties of health
giving, as it cures influenza and establishes the complexion. It is clean, for
whoever handles it on its way to your table but handles its outer covering, its
top coat, which is left in the hall. It is round, and forms an excellent
substitute with the young for a tiny football. The pips can be flicked at your
enemies, and quite a small piece of peel makes a slide for an old gentleman.
But all this would count nothing had not the orange such delightful
qualities of taste. I dare not let myself go upon this subject. I am a slave to
its sweetness.
Yet with the orange we go live year in and year out. That speaks well for
the orange. The fact is that there is an honesty about the orange which appeals
to all of us. If it is going to be bad--for the best of us are bad sometimes--it
begins to be bad from the outside, not from the inside. How many a pear which
presents a blooming face to the world is rotten at the core. How many an
innocent-looking apple, is harboring a worm in the bud. But the orange has no
secret faults. Its outside is a mirror of its inside, and if you are quick you
can tell the shopman so before he slips it into the bag.

sorrow. The sound of the rain knocking on the window was so mournful that it
deepened my distress.
My memory brought me back to the class when I saw him for the last
time.
That evening it was raining, too. We started our lesson as usual at a
quarter past six. I sat in the first row, and I saw Mr Cai press his stomach
with a hand from time to time, but I didn’t know the reason then. The two hours
passed quickly. When the lesson came to an end,Mr Cai told us that he had
possibly developed a stomach cancer, and would go to Beijing to see a doctor. If
there was nothing serious, he would continue to teach us after he came back. He
was very calm and his voice was steady. He still gave us some homework. He said
that he would mark the papers as soon as he came back.
Then I started to wait for his return. I had not thought that I would not
see him any more. The cancer had taken his life, even though he was still
young.
Mr Cai’s words are still ringing in my ears,“I hope you will be one of the
best students.” I think I should work hard at English and live up to his
expectation .
I have lost a good teacher. Tears will dry up in time, but the memory will
stay for ever.

The boy struggled to get out but Socrates was strong and kept him there until the boy started turning blue. Socrates pulled his head out of the water and the first thing the young man did was to gasp and take a deep breath of air.
