Far and away the most important holiday in China is Spring Festival，also known as the Chinese New Year. To the Chinese people it is as important as Christmas to people in the West. The dates for this annual celebration are determined by the lunar calendar rather than the GREgorian calendar，so the timing of the holiday varies from late January to early February.

To the ordinary Chinese，the festival actually begins on the eve of the lunar New Years Day and ends on the fifth day of the first month of the lunar calendar. But the 15th of the first month，which normally is called the Lantern Festival，means the official end of the Spring Festival in many parts of the country.

Spring Festival is the most importantand popular festival in China.Before Spring Festival ，the people usually clean and decorate their houses.And they go to the Flower Fairs to buy some flowers.During Spring Festival ，the adults usually give lucky money to children.People often get together and have a big meal.Some people eat dumpling for dinner.

To tell you the truth，I don t like the Spring Festival at all.

When I was young I liked it very much，because I could had something tasty to eat during the Spring Festival，and I could enjoy very wonderful TV programmes，too，I also could had much free time during which I could did something I liked to do.

I don t like it now， there are many reasons.

Firstly，I can t have a good time during the Festival.

Every New Year s Eve something unpleasant often happens.

Once I quarreled with my second brother.

Secondly，I can t relax myself during the Festival.

I have to do many things，watch so many TV programmes， meet so many people，all these things make me very tired.

Thirdly，spending one Spring Festival means that I become one year older，I don t like to be old.

I want to live longer and be young all the time.

Readers， what is your opinions about the Spring Festival?Please tell us，we can share our opinions.

Thanks for reading! Goodbye.

祭天祈年是年俗的主要内容之一。诸如灶神、门神、财神、喜神、井神等诸路神明，在年节期间，都备享人间香火。年节还是合家团圆、敦亲祀祖的日子。除夕，全家欢聚一堂，吃罢“团年饭”，长辈给孩子们分发“压岁钱”，一家人团坐“守岁”。元日子时交年时刻，鞭炮齐响，辞旧岁、迎新年的活动达于高潮。各家焚香致礼，敬天地、祭列祖，然后依次给尊长拜年，继而同族亲友互致祝贺。元日后，开始走亲访友，互送礼品，以庆新年。年节更是民众娱乐狂欢的节日。元日以后，各种丰富多彩的娱乐活动竞相开展：耍狮子、舞龙灯、扭秧歌、踩高跷、杂耍诸戏等，为新春佳节增添了浓郁的喜庆气氛。此时，正值“立春”前后，古时要举行盛大的迎春仪式，鞭牛迎春，祈愿风调雨顺、五谷丰收。各种社火活动到正月十五，再次形成高潮。

祭灶、蒸花馍(腊月二十三后，家家户户要蒸花馍。大体上分为敬神和走亲戚用的两种型。)

写春联(腊月二十三以后，家家户户都要写春联。民间讲究有神必贴，每门必贴，每物必贴，所以春节的对联数量最多，内容最全。)、吃灶糖、扫尘(举行过灶祭后，便正式地开始做迎接过年的准备。扫尘就是年终大扫除，北方称“扫房”，南方叫“掸尘”。在春节前扫尘搞卫生，是中国人民素贴年画(19张)有的传统习惯。)置天地桌(传说此夜为天上诸神下界之时，所以民间有接神习俗。天地桌是一个临时性的供桌，是除夕专设之桌主要为接神使用。)、吃年夜饭、守岁(守岁，就是在旧年的最后一天夜里不睡觉，熬夜迎接新一年的到来的习俗，也叫除夕守岁，俗名“熬年”。)、接神(接神是为新旧年分野，但接神时间亦不太统一)、踩祟(接神后，将芝麻秸从街门内铺到屋门，人在上面行走，噼叭作声，称为“踩岁”，亦叫“踩祟”。)、开门炮仗(春节早晨，开门大吉，先放爆竹，叫做“开门炮仗”。)、拜年、占岁(旧时民间以进入新正初几日的天气阴晴来占本年年成。)、饮屠苏酒(屠苏酒是一种药酒。在古代习俗中，元日全家饮屠苏酒，以祛不正之气)、聚财(俗传正月初一为扫帚生日，这一天不能动用扫帚，否则会扫走运气、破财，而把“扫帚星”引来，招致霉运。)、贴“赤口”、“送年”。

In china if you invite people for meal, the person who invited other people would pay for the meal but it’s not the way in Western country. In western country people will think you only invited me but it’s not your responsibility to pay for me.

I can afford it. They won’t be happy if you pay for them. People in China would always put dishes into customer’s plate to show their hospitality, but they will think it’s not healthy because your chopsticks have been used by you. In western country like America not England, people will always give tips to waiter after they finished meal in a restaurant.

If you don’t they will not be happy because tips are one of their major income. In china this only happen in some top restaurants and hotels in large international cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. Western people will also think you are rude if you make sound during the meal. Western people do not hold their bowl up even when they have a bowl of soup.

Waking up on New Year， everybody dresses up。 First they extend greetings to their parents。 Then each child will get money as a New Year gift， wrapped up in red paper。 People in northern China will eat jiaozi， or dumplings， for breakfast， as they think "jiaozi" in sound means "bidding farewell to the old and ushering in the new"。 Also， the shape of the dumpling is like gold ingot from ancient China。 So people eat them and wish for money and treasure。

Southern Chinese eat niangao (New Year cake made of glutinous rice flour) on this occasion， because as a homophone， niangao means "higher and higher， one year after another。" The first five days after the Spring Festival are a good time for relatives， friends， and classmates as well as colleagues to exchange greetings， gifts and chat leisurely。

China has 56 ethnic groups。 Minorities celebrate their Spring Festival almost the same day as the Han people， and they have different customs。

春节是所有学生盼望的节日，但是与此同时老师会留一些作文作业，你是否还在为怎么写作文而苦恼，以下是考试吧为大家整理搜索的关于春节习俗的作文，供大家参考学习。 春节习俗作文400字

春节是我们中国农历的新年，所以过年对我们中国人而言非常重要的！因此，春节前的准备也是必不可少的。

过年了！过年了！家家户户忙着贴春联，剃头发，做年夜饭要做的事情太多了，而且“规矩”太多了！有些习俗还很怪，无奈之下，我就去问正在贴春联的妈妈。

我看见妈妈将“福”字倒着贴，我固然知道为什么要倒着贴，将‘福’字倒着贴是一种习俗，‘福’倒贴说明‘福’倒（到）了！但我仍然问道：“过年有什么习俗和规矩啊？”妈妈停下手中的活，耐心地给我谈起来。

原来，以前过年还有一种放鞭炮的习俗，来源于“年兽”的故事。很久以前有一只“年兽”，长期居住深海底，到了除夕就跃出海面到处作恶。有一年一个老人用放炮，穿红衣，贴红春联的方法驱赶走“年兽”，这才得以平静，此后这个方法就流传开来。但是现在广州禁止燃放烟花爆竹，所以我们就不再进行这个活动了。

除夕这一天对我国来说是极为重要的。这天晚上，我们全家准备除旧迎新，吃团年饭。吃年夜饭，是春节家家户户最热闹愉快的时候。大年夜．丰盛的年菜摆满一桌 ，全家团聚，围坐桌旁，共吃团圆饭。人们既是享受满桌的佳肴，也是享受那份快乐的气氛，桌上有鸡、鹅、烧肉等等，一般少不了两样东西，一是火锅，一是鱼。火锅热气腾腾，说明红红火火；“鱼”和“余”谐音，喻意“年年有余”。最后一道甜食，祝福往后的日子甜甜蜜蜜。

今天我的收获太大了，知道了很多过年习俗的知识，不过我觉得有点迷信，但这又仿佛是一种乐趣，只要快乐就好，何必迷信不迷信？更何况这是传统的习俗，宁可信其有不可信其无啊！

The Spring Festival is very important to Chinese people。In the past，people could not often have meat，rice or other delicious food。They could only eat these 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。Because 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！

春节是中国人民非常重要。在过去，人们不可能经常有肉，大米或其他美味的食物。在春节期间他们只能吃这些。所以每一年他们希望春节很快就会来的。现在，虽然人们的生活要好得多，我们可以每天吃美味的食物。人们仍然喜欢这个节日。因为大多数人可以有很长的假期，我们可以去旅行或访问我们的朋友和我们家有聚会。在晚上，我们可以有一顿大餐在餐馆或呆在家里和我的家人看电视节目。

我非常喜欢春节。春节是多么美妙！

春节传说之一：贴春联和门神

据说贴春联的习俗，大约始于一千多年前的后蜀时期，这是有史为证的。此外根据《玉烛宝典》，《燕京岁时记》等着作记载，春联的原始形式就是人们所说的 桃符 。

在中国古代神话中，相传有一个鬼域的世界，当中有座山，山上有一棵覆盖三千里的大桃树，树梢上有一只金鸡。每当清晨金鸡长鸣的时候，夜晚出去游荡的鬼魂必赶回鬼域。鬼域的大门坐落在桃树的东北，门边站着两个神人，名叫神荼、郁垒。如果鬼魂在夜间干了伤天害理的事情，神荼、郁垒就会立即发现并将它捉住，用芒苇做的绳子把它捆起来，送去喂虎。因而天下的鬼都畏惧神荼、郁垒。于是民间就用桃木刻成他们的模样，放在自家门口，以避邪防害。后来，人们干脆在桃木板上刻上神荼、郁垒的名字，认为这样做同样可以镇邪去恶。这种桃木板后来就被叫做 桃符 。

到了宋代，人们便开始在桃木板上写对联，一则不失桃木镇邪的意义，二则表达自己美好心愿，三则装饰门户，以求美观。又在象征喜气吉祥的红纸上写对联，新春之际贴在门窗两边，用以表达人们祈求来年福运的美好心愿。

为了祈求一家的福寿康宁，一些地方的人们还保留着贴门神的习惯。据说，大门上贴上两位门神，一切妖魔鬼怪都会望而生畏。在民间，门神是正气和武力的象征，古人认为，相貌出奇的人往往具有神奇的禀性和不凡的本领。他们心地正直善良，捉鬼擒魔是他们的天性和责任，人们所仰慕的捉鬼天师钟馗，即是此种奇形怪相。所以民间的门神永远都怒目圆睁，相貌狰狞，手里拿着各种传统的武器，随时准备同敢于上门来的鬼魅战斗。由于我国民居的大门，通常都是两扇对开，所以门神总是成双成对。

唐朝以后，除了以往的神荼、郁垒二将以外，人们又把秦叔宝和尉迟恭两位唐代武将当作门神。相传，唐太宗生病，听见门外鬼魅呼号，彻夜不得安宁。于是他让这两位将军手持武器立于门旁镇守，第二天夜里就再也没有鬼魅搔扰了。其后，唐太宗让人把这两位将军的形象画下来贴在门上，这一习俗开始在民间广为流传。

每年农历的正月初一，是中国最盛大的传统节日——春节。春节的来临，意味着温暖的春天即将到来；意味着里历史将翻开崭新的篇章；意味着我们也将长大一岁。

在中国过春节，大家都会提前准备年货，我的家乡也不例外。差不多在冬月的初旬，家家户户都开始备年货了。大家会买许多肉，有些灌成香肠，有些则把肉腌制后挂在阳台，经过长时间的晾晒而制成腊肉，留到过年吃。

过了腊月二十三的小年，家里就开始忙了。必须进行一次大扫除，把家里打扫得干干净净、一尘不染。还要准备一些糖和水果之类的年货，用于过年时招待客人。

小年一过，除夕很快就到了。除夕在农历十二月三十，是一年之末。在这一天，大家都要穿新衣，家家户户都要贴春联、贴窗花和“福”字。“福”字还要倒着贴，意味着“福到了”！这些都寄托了人们对幸福生活的向往，对美好未来的祝福。

除夕夜吃团圆饭是必不可少的。桌上摆满了丰盛可口的饭菜，一家人围坐在一起，一边看着春晚，一边举杯欢庆、互送祝福。当然，还有我们小孩最喜欢的——发压岁钱。长辈们把压岁钱封在红包里送给晚辈，祝福我们在新的一年里健康成长。

除夕一过，便是春节。大街小巷满是火红的炮纸，像是铺上了红地毯，在迎接春节的到来。而这一天，人们通常会待在家里休息。

接下来的几天，大家会走亲访友去拜年，也会在家中接待客人。亲朋好友们互送祝福，欢乐与幸福洋溢在我们的周围。

正月十五的元宵节——春节的又一个高潮。这一天，人们吃元宵、赏花灯。花灯各式各样、十分美丽，有的做成鱼，寓意“年年有余”；有的做成莲花，寓意“出淤泥而不染”；有的做成中国古代神话传说里威武的龙，寓意“龙腾虎跃”……在里面点上灯，瞬间变得五彩缤纷，美丽极了。

元宵节一过，热闹的春节也将进入尾声。大人们又开始忙碌地工作了，孩子们也要重新背上书包去上学了。

这便是我家乡的春节，一个温馨和睦的节日，一个家人团聚的节日，整个大地都弥漫着幸福与欢乐。

导语：春节出门笑声喧，见人抱拳贺春年。恭贺新禧过年好，车拉马拖进财宝。身体健康幸福年，左邻右舍笑开颜。以下是小编整理怎么庆祝春节英语作文的资料，欢迎阅读参考。

On the morning of the Spring Festival, our family was busy. Mother put couplets on the gate. What I saw in my eyes was "lili spring resident, people and fuyong". The family is peaceful and happy.

I, then help mother paste "fu" word, want to stick on the door. My mother hurriedly stopped me and said, "the word fu should be pasted, which is the homophony of fu. The Spring Festival couplet has festival, wealth, auspicious meaning." As soon as I heard it, I immediately put the "fu" on the back. The father was also careful to hang up the red lanterns. I think: is this red lantern not the face of our country changing with each passing day?

In the evening, its time to have dinner. The kitchen was filled with fragrance; On the table was a big dinner, which made people look and spit. There is a fish in the middle of the table, which means more than one year. The guests arrived, and sat in front of the table, enjoying the feast with relish. Mom and dad greeted the guests with a big smile. The whole family was happy and the house was filled with happiness.

After dinner, grandma came to share the bonus package. Our family has a small stipulation that the young people get the award, not only the red packets, but also other rewards. This year, I was judged "three good students". My grandmother gave me a red envelope and gave me a nice pencil case. In the New Year, I encourage my academic performance to go up further. The children all received red envelopes with a big smile on their faces.

At eight o clock in the evening, our family turned on the TV and watched the Spring Festival gala. The melodious song is intoxicating; The graceful dance is full of praise; The funny joke made people laugh. That wonderful sketch comedy makes people laugh... Bursts of laughter rippling over the living room.

This Spring Festival, I have a very meaningful life. I hope I will be better next Spring Festival!

春节的早晨，我们一家人就已经忙开了。妈妈在大门上贴春联。映入我眼帘的是“日丽春常驻，人和福永留”。表示家庭祥和幸福。

我呢，则帮妈妈贴“福”字，正要贴在门上。妈妈连忙阻止我，说道：“‘福’字应该倒贴，就是‘福’到的谐音，福光临我们家了。春节帖春联有喜庆、财气、吉祥之意。”我一听，赶紧把“福”字倒贴了。爸爸也在精心准备，挂起了一盏盏红灯笼。我想：这红灯笼难道不就代表着我们祖国的面貌在日新月异地变化着吗?

晚上，该是吃年夜饭的时候了。厨房里弥漫着香气;桌上摆放着丰盛的晚餐，使人看了，口水直流。桌中间有一条鱼，那就表示年年有余。客人们也都到了，欢欢喜喜地坐在桌子面前，津津有味地品尝着年夜饭。爸爸妈妈笑容满面地招呼着客人。全家人都其乐融融，屋子里充满了幸福的气氛。

吃完饭，外婆来分红包喽!我们家有一个小约定，小辈们拿到了奖状，不仅有红包，还会有其他奖励。今年，我被评上了“三好学生”。外婆就分给我一份红包，还送给我一只精美的文具盒。鼓励我在新的一年里，学习成绩更上一层楼。小孩子们都收到了红包，脸上露出了灿烂的笑容。

晚上八点整，我们全家准时打开了电视机，收看“春节联欢晚会”。那悠扬的歌声，使人陶醉其中;那优美的舞姿，使人赞不绝口;那滑稽有趣的笑话，使人捧腹大笑;那精彩的相声小品，使人开怀大笑……阵阵欢声笑语荡漾在客厅上空。

今年的春节，我过得十分有意义。我希望明年春节，我会过得更好!

我家乡的春节习俗有很多很多，大扫除、购年货、包饺子、拜年……数不胜数。

我和爸爸按照习俗去购年货。大街小巷里，买年货的人人山人海，小摊上、商店里的东西琳琅满目，摆满了彩色的衣服和好吃的食品，还有烟花爆竹，真是让人大饱眼福。我和爸爸又开始疯狂购物，各种各样的东西被我们一扫而光：鞭炮、衣服、食品……整整装了十几个大袋子。

我们家乡最少不了的当然是包饺子喽，除夕之夜，我和爸爸妈妈就准备开始包饺子了，包饺子看起来容易，其实是很需要技巧的，我们三个合理分工，我负责擀面皮，妈妈负责包饺子，爸爸负责下饺子，说干就干。我拿起妈妈切好的小面团，先用力把圆面团压扁，然后这边擀擀，那边擀擀，最后成了四不像。妈妈看了看，就先做起了示范，包饺子应该均匀，让它在案板上转起来，这样擀出来的饺子皮圆圆的，妈妈边说边做。我按照妈妈教我的方法去进行下一个，可我怎么也不能把这个“淘气包”制服，还是擀的乱七八糟。不过经过我九九八十一次的艰苦训练，我终于把这个淘气鬼给彻底制服了。

吃完饺子就要去给长辈们拜年，只要说一些祝福的话就可以拿到压岁钱了。

春节是我国最主要的传统节日，很多人都会放下繁忙的工作，回到家，举家欢庆，庆祝团圆。下面小编带来的是过春节的中学生英语作文，希望对你有帮助。

The winter vacation, the Spring Festival, not what can be more symbolic than firecrackers, during the Lunar New Year holiday, the first idea is to set off firecrackers on the street, see the brightly coloured fireworks is a heart itch.

From the new year, when their distribution of firecrackers the list of bills.

We can endure the temptation, dont shout, we tried to make it can scarcely wait in front of adults, so they take us back to an exciting, can these people, like we play like teasing, blind, but no one would dare to put forward, it will inevitably. First, so we picked the iron heart, those gadgets, is not easy to detect the box gun hidden in the bag and ran away to steal, we all cherish it! Who have 10 pieces of cannon cleaning hidden in the hidden bag, each other do not stop said: "first put you the more you." "I have no, I do not believe you." "Talk and count it out to me." "Thats no good." "Lets put you." "Mora who lost who" each gun had inevitably twitter controversy, for trouble, also had their own respective, to put aside. From the bag carefully pulled out a root to the ground, then look for a long time, for fear of accidentally brought out off the ground, confirm no later, then took out the eraser box, a wipe, wipe away a head poked out the flame, a walk away, people far away, and then cover your ears, all eyes. The top of a smoking gun, only to be snapped, jumping is happy, after a while, the fried greasy, they all want to see water gun in the water, not easy to find a small puddle, "this is what I find, you dont" grab "is not for you, I then inevitably some unreasonable, then, I do not know who shouted," ignition." They are back to the speaker lit and thrown, simply even ears are not covered, PA, the water splashed up here, he screamed again, this can be in the water like shooting on land that is easy, it is necessary to experience. I have seen carefully the experienced cannon. I saw that he did not throw it directly after burning it, but he would burn it for half a second and throw it into the water again, so he would throw it repeatedly, or it would be extinguished in the water, which would be a great waste of firecrackers, which is not what we would like to do.

At that time, thousands of households are out shooting, that battle, like battlefield two, we look for the shuttle in the middle there is no fried surplus, it is very lucky to get it, but we still dont give up the 0. 001%s hope.

Until the second day of the new year, firecrackers suddenly stopped, so neat, so coincidentally, occasionally one or two sound system sound, and more people feel quiet, empty, so soon after the Lunar New Years day, yes, really over, that moment, our work is only to wait, wait for the next a long spring festival.

（1） How Do People in My Hometown Observe Spring Festival

（2） My College Life ---- A Summary of the First Term in Zhejiang

Gongshang University

Spring Festival in my Hometown

The Spring Festival, the most jubilant and important festival in China, is observed by most Chinese people at home and abroad. Our hometown is not an exception.

Similar with other places in china, we prepare for the festival about half a month before. With the lunar New Year approaching, the red lanterns are hung up along the main streets, making the ancient town filled with the festival atmosphere. While people clean up their houses, decorate it with traditional decorations such as Chinese knots and paper cutting. Each family pastes up Spring Festival couplets to convey their best wishes for the coming year.

On the New Year’s Eve, the whole family sits around, having a

sumptuous feast of reunion. It is worth mentioning that the food we have called maiyouzhi is unique. There is a flat piece of wheat sheet covering various vegetable and meat then rolling them up. What a delicious it is! After dinner, the family always watches the Spring Festival Gala Evening, and sets up fireworks to watch in the New Year.

On the first day of the New Year, people pay visits to the relatives and friends to send New Year’s greetings to each other and wish everything smoothly in the new year. The kids can get a lot of lucky money from the elders.

During the whole holiday, there are varied activities in the town such as lion and dragon dance, and all the citizens enjoy them very much.

People celebrate the festival until the Lantern festival. However, the wonderful memory and the joy of the Spring Festival will last long.

It’s really my honor to be part of Zhejiang Gongshang University.

My College Life

How time flies! I have been in Zhejiang Gongshang University for a semester. In retrospect, my college life is busy but colorful. Different from my senior high school’s life, the whole new life I led is much freer. I arranged my time,

becoming the master of myself.

First of all, study is still the core of my life. I major in Japanese which is both interesting and challenging. We are required to be accomplished in listening, speaking, reading, writing and translating. As a result I had to spend most of time in improving my abilities. Besides of the regular courses, I often attended the lecture and went to the library to eich my knowledge, and I do benefit from what I learnt.

As to the after school life, what I consider most meaningful is joining the YVP to serve society. I think it is the responsibility for every university student to make contribution to the community. Little as my effort is, I tried my best to help the people around us. Once the YVP organized us to sell secondhand books and raise the money to help the people indeed.

In addition, I quite enjoy the travels and the bees. Travels let me experience the sunshine, fresh air as well as the special taste of the local customs and practices. While the bees keep the friendship shining, and friends are as if family members. Both of them lit up my life.

All in all, the college life is a journey, and I have long way to go; all the memory is the most precious treasure, and I will value every moment.

Dear John,

How time flies! Four moths have passed since we saw each other last time. I cannot helpbut miss you. You asked me about Chinese Spring Festival. Now I would like to tell yousomething about it.

The Spring Festival is a Chinese traditional festival. It is the most important and

enjoyable one. A few days before the festival, houses are cleaned and red couplets are

put up on the doors of every household. They are said to frighten away the ghosts. On that day, people are dressed up. Firecrackers ring out in the air, which adds to the atmosphere of the festival. People after a year’s hard work begin to relax and visit one another. Presents and dinners are given to celebrate the happy reunion of friends and relatives. Families get together. They have jiaozi and enjoy the New Year TV show. Customs may

vary from place to place, but the same happy atmosphere is to be found everywhere in

the country.

Now, I hope you have some idea of Chinese Spring Festival.

Best wishes,

Yours,

Li Hua

进入庙会，“年味儿”更是愈发的浓烈了!有老北京式叫卖的、玩皮影戏的、卖波浪鼓的、拉洋片的……人们兴致勃勃的在传统文化的氛围中，感受新年的快乐。在民俗一条街上，简直是视觉的盛宴，把传统文化的灿烂，展现的淋漓尽致 。先抬头，看看树上那一串串中国古典的花绣球，还有那一扇扇老式的纸折扇。你就知道此街非同小可了吧!不仅是装饰，这街上的内容才叫丰富呢!泥人张的泥塑，可谓惟妙惟肖;津门贡掸的鸡毛掸，可谓华丽多样;河北剪纸，可谓别具匠心。其中，我最喜欢的，便是北京木雕门楼。这木雕门楼，不仅技艺精湛，而且将老北京建筑的文化展现的完美无暇。不仅有老北京的建筑经典--四合院，还有古时的城门 、酒楼 、居处，乃至洋车 、古窗等等。让人有一眼看穿古今北京的感觉。除此之外，民俗一条街上的商品也是充满传统文化的韵味，象老北京的空竹风车、风筝剪纸、编织工艺等等。琳琅满目，应有尽有。

这庙会里，不仅物品繁多，各种风味儿小吃也是数不胜数的!天津的狗不理包子;山东的煎包;云南的过桥米线;北京的白魁老号、馄饨侯、茶汤李等等。就是闻闻味道，都会经不住的舔舔嘴唇。

除了经典的“传统大餐”，庙会还融合了许多现代元素。何以见得?在商品大街上，都摆着呢!有韩国的唯美日记本、日本的鲤鱼旗、假面舞会时戴的华美面具、俄罗斯经典娃娃、西部牛仔的帽子、Harry Potter的魔法学院的帽子等等。而那些叫卖的人，也成了这条街上亮丽的风景线。他们有的戴着假红鼻子和大出自己眼眶很多的夸张眼镜;有的带着魔法学院的帽子和假面舞会面具……总之，怎么吸引人们的眼球，怎么装扮。很容易就让人笑破肚皮。

就在熙熙攘攘，接踵摩肩的人潮中，欢乐与欣喜并进中，庙会接近尾声……蓝蓝的天上，还飘着燕子型的风筝;耳边，还响着空竹风车转动时的清脆响声;舌尖，还留着茶汤李的茶香;心里，还印着对中国传统文化的崇敬;脑海里，还想着新年的新愿望!

The Happy Spring Festival Spring festival is on the first day of the first lunar month. Chinese people most like the Spring Festival. During Spring Festival, Chinese people like having meals with their families, playing fireworks in the open air. My sisters and I played fireworks on that day. We had many fireworks. They were very beautiful. They were running into the sky and breaking into pieces. They looked like flowers in the sky. We were very happy and excited. After that, I made a wish. I hope that, we can have a happy and healthy life next year and everyone in my family can be happy. I enjoy the festival very happy.

春节是在第一个月的第一天。中国人最喜欢春节。在春节期间，中国人喜欢和自己的家人一起吃饭，一起放焰火在空旷的地方。在那天，我和我姐姐一起放焰火。我们有很多的焰火。它们非常漂亮。它们升上天空并且使一些地方变得很亮。在天空中，它们看起来像是花。我们很高兴也很兴奋。在这之后，我许了一个愿，我希望，在来年，我们能够高高兴兴并且拥有健康的生活，还有每一个人在我们家庭里都可以开开心心。我感到在这个节日里非常高兴。
