关于春节习俗的英语作文录热门20篇

回到家乡，心里可高兴了，春节习俗总会让我吃惊不小，最普遍的就是以下四个了：吃年饭，看晚会，午夜放烟花和拜年。

大年三十，舅舅舅妈等亲戚都欢聚一堂，外婆外公满脸喜悦，开心地忙碌着。对，今天我们要吃年饭了！“噼里啪啦”，一阵鞭炮声响起，年饭做好了！当然，吃年饭总忘不了土地爷爷，敬几根香，摆几碗菜和一碗饭，求土地爷爷保佑，来年丰收。接下来，便入席了。吃罢年饭，大家都坐在炉子旁边聊天。外公外婆这时候可就忙咯！吃年饭（也可以说是团圆饭），是春节的重要习俗之一，不管是在哪儿，大家都会赶回来，和家人一起共享这美好的时刻。吃年饭时，大家总有很多话要说，说工作，说家庭，等等。吃年饭的时间是不一样的，只要家人都到齐了，想什么时候吃都行。

晚上，就剩下自己家的人了。在看春节联欢晚会之前，是我最期待的时候：收压岁钱。恭喜发财，红包拿来！大舅舅一个，舅舅一个，外婆一个……大家都忙活完了，该坐下来休息休息了，于是，我们便团聚在一起看春节联欢晚会。边看边聊，仿佛话总也说不完似的。总算熬到12点了，午夜烟花快燃放了！“轰！”一个礼炮打响了，天空顿时蒙上了一件五彩斑斓的彩衣。随着第一个礼炮的打响，各家不约而同地放出了各种款式的烟花，每一家的屋顶上都挂上了一个美丽的帽子。放烟花的声音震耳欲聋，五彩的烟花使我眼花缭乱。我和大舅妈跑到楼顶上观看烟花，我兴奋得直跳：“我这次苦熬到12点真是没白费，这真是太壮观了！”午夜放烟花，有可能是每个地方都有的习俗，有可能是我们家乡特有的一种习俗，但都一样，我见识到了，你们也听说了！

这天，是初一，才刚起来，就听见门外一阵拜年声：“给您老拜年了啊！”“哎！来了来了，新年快乐！”“新年快乐！”这时候，外婆正忙着做早餐，外公则正忙着招呼人。“坐一下吧啊？”“不了不了。”这样的对话总会听见很多次。我赶紧吃完早餐和舅舅他们出门了。舅舅的双胞胎女儿紫依和紫芊各提着一个袋子，每到一处袋子里的东西就会增加一点，可高兴坏她们了。所谓的拜年呢，就是挨家挨户地走动，有时候会在哪一家坐一会儿，聊聊天什么的。而小孩子就提着个袋子去拜糖。声明一下啊，我可没有哦！

每个地方的春节习俗或多或少都有些不同吧，你们是不是也该让我长长见识了呢？

寒假又到了，春节又来了！过春节嘛，总是有很多习俗，放鞭炮就是我最喜欢的一个春节习俗。

“春节到，放鞭炮，吓跑恶鬼和妖怪！春节······”弟弟边说着自己编的顺口溜，边放鞭炮。看着弟弟放鞭炮，我心中升起一个疑问：“为什么过春节要放鞭炮呢？”于是，我去问知识渊博的爷爷。

爷爷告诉我：“鞭炮是中国的特产，也称‘炮仗’、‘爆竹’。它的起源很早，至今已有两千多年的历史了。春节放鞭炮的原因是要把出没的野兽吓跑，驱魔驱邪，喜迎春节，它还表示平平安安，欢欢喜喜。”“噢，原来是这样啊！”我恍然大悟，“谢谢爷爷，我明白了。”

听完爷爷的解释，我对鞭炮来了兴趣，想放一放鞭炮。

我拿出一个长长的烟花，来到院子里，我扣动打火机，一束蓝色的火苗从打火机里冒了出来。随着“咝咝”的响声，一簇闪闪的火花从顶端喷了出来。我尽情地挥舞着，跳着自己认为很优美的舞动，在夜空中画出各种图案。

我还不尽兴，又拿了一个大大的礼炮，准备点燃。但看到它庞大的体积，我又犹豫不决，这时，妈妈看透了我的心思：“不要怕，只要勇敢、自信，你就能成功！”听了妈妈的鼓励，我鼓起勇气，点燃了导火线。就在我飞速跑开的同时，一阵震耳欲聋的响声响了起来。“噼！啪！”一朵朵美丽的“花儿”从礼炮中喷薄而出，顿时点亮了夜空。“砰！”又一颗小火球蹦了出来，“哗！”就像一朵巨大的玫瑰花瞬间开放，绚丽至极·····夜空中，各种形态各异、色彩斑斓的“花朵”争奇斗艳，五光十色，瑰丽无比！

五颜六色的烟花，不仅绽放出来美丽，绽放出了悠久的历史文化，还绽放出了我的勇气与信心！

春节的传说 这些天，我收集了许多有关中国的传统节日，有春节、清明节、中秋节、重阳节等等。在这些传统节日中，我最喜欢春节。每到春节，家家户户喜贴对联，穿新衣吃饺子，然后爷爷奶奶还要给我发小红包，我家还会把我写的春联贴在门外。记得有一次过年的时候，爸爸买来了烟花，在我家楼下放了起来。只听“呯呯”几声，一束束烟花飞上天，真美呀！各种烟花在天空中绽放，有的像一条巨龙腾空而起，在空中摇头摆尾，有的像一枚枚子弹直冲天空，还有的像一朵没有开放的花苞，在天空中欣然怒放。 春节还有一个美丽的传说，下面我就给你们说说吧。传说中，古时候有一种叫“年”的怪兽，它长着锋利的牙，尖尖的角，凶猛无比。“年”长年深居海底，每到新年的晚上，怪兽就会爬上岸，去袭击山角下的一个小村庄。村里人知道会来怪兽，把门锁的紧紧，可是不管怎样，“年”就会进来，偷吃村民的东西，伤害人畜，大家都害怕极了。

这一年的除夕，人们正准备避难。这时，一位仙翁走过来，他告诉村民“年”怕红色和响声，人们听了连忙准备了红对联贴在门上。晚上，“年”又来了，它一见红色，听到锣鼓声阵阵，吓得赶紧逃跑了。从此以后每逢过新年家家户户都贴春联、贴年画、放鞭炮，这个习俗一直延续至今，还越传越广，逐渐成了中华民族最隆重的传统节日。

中国的传统文化光辉灿烂，我们要认真学习，大力弘扬中国的传统文化。

年节也是祭祝祈年的日子。古人谓谷子一熟为一“年”，五谷丰收为“大有年”。西周初年，即已出现了一年一度的庆祝丰收的活动。后来，祭天祈年成了年俗的主要内容之一。而且，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。人们借此酬谢诸神过去的关照，并祈愿在新的一年中能得到更多的福佑。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”。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。

春节到!春节到!每家每户喜洋洋。

我家也不例外，我家贴上了漂亮的春联、窗贴，还是兔子图案的呢!

年三十那天，下午四点钟，我们全家准备出发去外面吃年夜饭。出门之前妈妈叫我在红包上写祝福的话，爷爷喜欢体育彩票，爷爷的红包上我就写上：祝爷爷彩票中大奖;外公爱打麻将，外公的红包上我就写上：祝外公麻将桌上多赚钱;奶奶和外婆我就写祝她们身体健康!饭桌上，我替妈妈把红包给老人们，大人们也给我发了压岁钱，大人们祝我新年快乐、学习进步、更上一层楼!

一句句祝福的话语，一句句谢谢在耳边转来转去，我的心里暖暖的，甜甜的。

Notes：

过年啦！过年啦！我们一家终于团圆了。妈妈说：“今天我们吃饺子吧！”“好啊！”我、姐姐和爸爸异口同声地说道。

我们一家人分工。爸爸放肉馅，妈妈和姐姐包饺子，我则放饺子皮。我的笑脸蛋被饺子皮上的粉弄得像花猫，惹得大家笑得脸都红了，我也随着他们笑，还把姐姐的脸也涂上粉。

不一会我们就包好了饺子，于是我们把饺子放在锅里煮，等待着它烧熟。不一会，饺子馅的香味就传了出来，我就迫不及待德想打开锅。但妈妈说还没煮熟，我只好不做声，继续等待。又过了五分钟左右，饺子终于开炉了。 妈妈把先让我尝一下，诱人的香味早已迷惑了我，一口气我就吃下了那个饺子，结果把我的舌头烫得都失去了味觉，姐姐就在旁边看我笑话，捂着嘴偷偷笑着。于是妈妈把饺子分在四个碗上，让我们慢慢地吃。

一家人吃着自己做的饺子，别提多幸福了。

My hometown is a small village in Chaoyang County of Liaoning province. If you come here, the countless festival customs will make you open your eyes. One of the most popular and favorite festivals is the annual Spring Festival in my hometown.

The Spring Festival has always been paid attention to, so the preparation for the pre Festival is also a long time, usually one month or half a month before the festival. During this period, people will always catch up with the big collection. The people coming back from the collection must be big bags of small balls, just like a big move, and those packages will have money hanging, couplets, some tobacco, sugar, tea and so on. The Spring Festival is six or seven days from the time, the hostess will take home are cleaned inside and out, clean and neat, so as not to give the guests a bad impression. One day before the Spring Festival, people were busy. The morning is posted paste antithetical couplet, register fund, at noon the hostess will be a sumptuous meal to invite two parents, one family enjoyable, fun. The night is more lively, eat dumplings and set off firecrackers, lamps and candles of a myriad families crowded.

The genius of the Spring Festival is a real buzz. On this day, people are busy getting up early to prepare breakfast, "for", everything must be careful, not negligence. The laobiye offerings are better than we eat dinner. First of all, right in the middle of a big plate, or put on three with red spots Steamed Buns, or put a plate of dumplings, and two small plates on both sides of large plate on it, put some orange, apple, and sugar, and incense to incense constantly, listening and speaking this one family can bless peace throughout the year. To finish for Lafayette, we can eat a meal. Dumplings are this day will eat meals, but not less packets must eat, the rest is good, which means "May there be surpluses every year". After dinner, we all want to put on new clothes, new shoes and socks, which represents the "new year". People will go to visit high streets and back lanes during the day, they see the elders to see knock, and comes with a spring festival!" And now this kind of custom has been forgotten by people. This day is also the most children a happy day, because not only can follow their parents to go to the door, enjoy a good treatment, but also can get lots of gift money. Theres a lot of money. If you want to buy anything, youll be happy. Children can not be punished by their parents even if they make mistakes, because it is the Spring Festival, and they are all festive and do not care about those unhappy things.

One month after that, relatives came to my house every two or three days. I was the happiest person because I could eat delicious food again. This is the time when people get the fastest weight, because they have a good date every day, so people begin to worry about their body.

Although I am now studying in a strange land, I cant go home very often, but I always cherish the memory of the Spring Festival in my hometown. That lively scene even missed the hometown that I raised for over ten years.

How time flies, suddenly arrived quickly when it gets dark. Moms cooking in our home but the best, so definitely want to taste her hearty dinner for us! Faced a table of delicious food, we are a large family sitting at the table, everyone is permeated with a happy smile on their faces, I really feel the taste of the "life is sweeter than honey"!

Thanks to the old womans house, we went to the aunt home, uncle happy New Year! Soon we finally finished thanks!

小年，即每年农历腊月23或24，它是庆祝整个春节活动的开始和伏笔，主要活动有两项：扫年和祭灶. 扫年，即扫尘，实际上就是搞家庭环境卫生。北方人以腊月23为小年，称“扫房”;南方人以腊月24为小年，称“掸尘”.这一天每家每户黎明升起，扫房擦窗，清洗衣物，刷洗锅瓢，实行彻底的卫生大扫除.据《拾遗记》记载这个习俗可以追溯到3000多年前，当时先民驱役鬼，祈福安康的宗教仪式.后“尘”与“陈”谐音，故扫尘就是一扫而光陈旧的东西，这既指庭院里的陈年老垢，也指旧岁中碰到的不快。

祭灶，即祭送灶神升天.古代，科技不发达，人们奉灶神为了控制家庭饮食的神明，认为灶神要在小年晚上向玉帝述职，玉帝对这家的赏罚全在灶神的汇报了.祭灶的祭品中最具民俗的是“糖瓜”，一说糖瓜是甜的，可使灶神在玉帝面前只说甜言蜜语;一说糖瓜是粘的，可以粘灶神的牙，使他的坏话出不了口.祭祀时，将供奉一年的灶神像揭下，焚化，算是送祭升天.至今民间仍有“糖瓜祭灶，新年来到”之说。

除夕，是指每年农历腊月的最后一天(今年公历二月六日)，它与春节(正月初一)首尾相连。“除夕”中的“除”字是“去;易;交替”的意思，除夕的意思是“旧岁至此而除，新年明晨而始”，故此期间的活动都围绕着除旧部新，禳灾祈福为中心。 除夕的主要活动有三项：吃团圆饭，祭祀，守岁。其中最有特点的还是守岁。

守岁，俗称“熬夜”，即除夕之夜，达旦不眠。传说，远古时侯有一种凶猛的怪物叫“年”，它每到腊月的最后一天夜里出来吞食人畜，危害百姓。后来，人们发现它的弱点是怕火光，怕声音，于是人们便在除夕之夜，通宵不眠，燃起火堆，焚烧青竹，使其发出爆响，年这个怪物也就不敢出来为非作歹了。从此就留下了除夕晚上熬夜和放炮的习俗。不过，守岁还有一项重要的工作：包饺子，而且还必须包素馅的饺子，这是为了希望在新的一年里“素素净净，平安顺利”。还有人在饺子里放糖，花生等物，吃到糖者意味着生活甜蜜，吃到花生者意味着长寿。

注意，守岁还有不少禁忌，如禁扫地，过小年时，平时很难触及的角落都要打扫干净，而进入除夕至大年初一早晨，即使地面再乱也不能扫，习惯上认为那样会“破财”。再如，禁用剪刀，禁说“没有了”凡此种种，都是人们盼望吉祥的心理反映。

春节即将来临了，我知道大家一定非常喜欢过春节。因为大家可以贴春联、看春节联欢晚会、走亲访友……

记得去年春节快来临时，我在家里学写对联，我站在一旁看大人们写对联，只见他们手拿一支毛笔，在墨水里蘸了蘸，然后就在红纸上写了几个大字。具体内容我已记不清了。那一幅对联写得非常工整，我见了就对伯父说：“能教我写对联吗?”我清楚地记得伯父问：“你会用毛笔吗?你知道应该怎样写对联吗?”我摇了摇头说：“不会。”于是他又说：“你今年又长大了一岁，居然连毛笔都还不会使用，趁着这个机会，我就教你几招吧。”听了伯父的话，我高兴地跳了起来。伯父告诉我，写字时身子要坐直，不要趴在桌子上。然后又详细地告诉我应该怎样使用毛笔。听了伯父的一番话，我终于学会了使用毛笔的一些最为基本的方法。接着伯父又让我写了几个字给他看看。我写了五个字：“我最爱中国”。写得歪歪扭扭，大概是刚使用毛笔吧!伯父见了笑了笑：“字倒是写得不错，就是笔画不直。”于是伯父又教导我：“写每个字时并不是要用同样的力量，在写每个字时，用的力量要有轻重变化，这样写出来的字就更有变化，看起来也更美观。伯父说完还示范地写了几个字让我模仿。看着伯父写的字，就是挺舒服。我照着伯父的样子试着写了几个字，还真有进步，比刚才写的看上去要好多了，我开心极了。伯父还告诉我，写字要经常训练，多去模仿名贴。写得多了，字就越写越好看。

在这个春节，我初步学了点写毛笔字的技巧，真是比得了压岁钱还更高兴，还更实惠。

我们都来自不同的地区，所谓“不同的地方有不同的习俗”，而我们三元里村的春节却是截然不同的，因为我们有着优秀的民间艺术——舞狮，每逢过节我们三元里村都会以舞狮来助兴的。

根据我家人的介绍，元宵节也是属于我们新春佳节的一部分。元宵节大多数是在正月十五，但我们三元里村真正的元宵节是在正月十八。在这一天里，一同参加抗英斗争的103乡的兄弟村如田心村、猎德村等都会搬来大烧猪庆祝。当天上午，三元里村的村民们从三元里古庙拿出“三星令旗”迎接兄弟村的来客，下午39支醒狮队轮流表演，祈求在新的一年里“国泰民安，风调雨顺”。

在年三十天亮时，村民们都会到所属的祠堂拜祖先，各地舞狮队在祠堂里一展峥嵘。有的舞狮队，如敦叙堂等会在三元里抗英大街上表演高空采青：有两只一红一黄的狮子，红的是公，黄的是母，工作人员先在门楣上吊了两个橘子，一棵小白菜和一个红包。

两只狮子先是互看对方一眼，突然红狮子抢先一步，猛地站立，一刹那就把菜连同红包吃入口中，再一下子蹲在地上，变成一只坐地狮子，半分钟后又继续大摇大摆地离开了。

到了21世纪，这一个科技发达的社会，许多人都会认为这一种习俗将会消失，但根据历史的考现，这种在年三十舞狮的习俗，已是代代相传至今天，每到这个节日，村民们都不忘这个习俗，因为狮子是百兽之王，它的形象是雄伟的、俊武的，给人以威严、勇猛之感，人们将它当作勇敢和力量的象征，认为它能驱邪镇妖，保佑人们平安，期望生活吉祥如意、事事平安，所以这个习俗已成了几百年来的“保留节目”。

不要以为90后的人只会上QQ、看电影、玩桌球等等，其实每个祠堂都承载着一个村落的文化传统，任何人都离不开它，因为这一个已经有了600多年历史的习俗，就像端午节一样，每到这一个节日人们都会吃粽子、赛龙舟等。正是这样，不仅让我们的生活变得更多姿多彩，还构成了我们这个多元的文化社会！

[三元里村春节习俗作文450字

the holiday called christmas is an amalgam of many winter holidays from around the world. the name is designated as a celebration of the birth of jesus, although the date is not recorded in the bible, and people at that time did not place particular important on birth dates. scientists say the actual date was june 17th, 2bc because of the appearance of the star that beckoned the magi. december 25th was set as the date for christmas in the 4th century by pope julius i as an attempt to christianize midwinter pagan holidays such as solstice and saturnalia. customs such as bringing evergreens inside, eating fat-laden foods, and hanging lights are universal responses to the cold, dark winter season. some of the stranger christmas traditions are remnants of those older pagan holidays, and some have been changed over the centuries until their origins are hard to discern. others were just made up to boost business!

krampus st. nicholas, father christmas, or santa claus is the weirdest christmas tradition ever, but he is so well known and so well documented that his origins are beyond the scope of this particular post. as a tool to encourage good behavior in children, santa serves as the carrot, and krampus is the stick. krampus is the evil demon anti-santa, or maybe his evil twin. krampus night is celebrated on december 5th, the eve of st. nicholas day in austria and other parts of europe. people dress as krampus and roam the streets looking for someone to beat with a stick. since it is also a night for drinking, the beatings probably don’t hurt much.

圣诞节是全世界冬季节日的集合。之所以取名为圣诞节，是为着纪念耶稣的诞生，尽管《圣经中》并未记载耶稣诞生的具体日期，那个时期的人对出生日期也不甚重视。科学家说，具体日期实为公元前2年6月17日，因为为在那一天，昭示东方三博士的星星出现了。公元前4世纪，为了把一些冬至时期的异教徒节日（如冬至日和农神节）基督教化，教皇尤利西斯一世把12月25日定为基督诞生日。而一些传统，如在屋内摆置常绿树，吃油脂丰富的食物，挂小灯，则是在寒冷阴暗的冬季之时，人们的普遍做法。还有一些更为奇特习俗，是古老异教节日的遗留物；一些历经几个世纪后，变化颇大，已难以溯及其源头；另外一些则是受商业利益驱使而生。

(“krampus游行”是巴伐利亚地区和阿尔卑斯山其他一些地区的传统活动，每年12月前后举行。krampus是圣诞老人的原型——圣人尼古拉斯的助手，在当地的传说中，他肩背一个装着礼物的大袋子，手拿一根棍子，好孩子可以收到他的礼物，顽皮的孩子则会被棍子敲打。)

This makes me understand the truth: it should be hard to learn anything.

我的家乡在江苏北部，离杭州有500公里左右，我们家乡的春节习俗与杭州有些不同。其中之一是贴春联。人们在除夕那天就会拿出毛笔墨水红纸，各显神通，写出一张张漂亮的春联，贴在门上。有的人家不会写，就到集市上去买别人写好的，或者请别人帮忙写。远远看去，家家户户都显得喜气洋洋。这标志着春节的到来。

北方人春节时要吃饺子，饺子里面一般放的是白菜、韭菜、粉丝、豆腐，外面是小麦面皮。以前有的人家会在其中的一个饺子或几个饺子中放一枚铜钱，吃到这枚铜钱的人将会发财。后来因为人们觉得这样做太脏了，现在这种风俗已经慢慢取消了，不过也有一些人会在里面放一个金橘代替铜钱。

人们会提前一个星期，高峰时期甚至会提前一个月，预购好飞机票或火车票，也有一些离家近的人会搭乘长途汽车回家，或者开私家车回家。

人们还会互相给红包。六十六元，代表着六六大顺。也有给八百八十八元的，代表着发发发。现在人们都是成百上千的给，才不管这些呢。

人们要放鞭炮，鞭炮种类可多了。有普通的红鞭炮，点上火就可以爆炸：有儿童们喜欢的“摔摔炮”，用力向地上扔就可以爆炸；有拿在手里就可喷出去的小烟花；还有捏一下，并快速地扔出去就可以爆炸的小“手榴弹”。

民谚称“腊月二十四，掸尘扫房子”。扫尘就是年终大扫除，北方称“扫房”。在春节前扫尘，是中国人民素有的传统习惯。扫尘那天，全家上下齐动手，打扫房屋、庭院，擦洗锅碗、拆洗被褥，干干净净地迎接新年。其实，人们是借助"尘"与"陈"的谐音表达除陈、除旧的意思。

虽然人在杭州，但过的是北方的春节。

new year party

on new years eve，our class had a party. the atmosphere was good. it was out of the ordinary from the very begining. the boy student from one bedroom gave an unusual performance. we saw a boy named li xinmin turn off all the lights in a sudden snap. then with three resounding(响亮的) crow of a cock echoing in the hall，the hall was again brightly lit in a snap.

then，the representative of the bedroom zhu guozhang asked us to guess a line of a poem related to the above situation. he added that li xinmin alone was born in the year of the dog and the other three were all born in the year of the chicken. they left us all in confusion. and it was our monitor who was quickwitted(机智的). he shouted our， "the day breaks as the cock crows three times at dawn." the hall after that，they had another item. this time li xinmin was placed in the middle of the circle. while he was standing there，the other three stood around him，each bowing down to him at an angle of 120 degrees. it was an idiom. this time i got it right："the dog stands out among a group of chickens."

新年晚会

在除夕，我们班有一个聚会。气氛好。它是寻常从一开始。从一间卧室男生给一个不寻常的表现。我们看到名为李新民在突然关闭所有的灯单元一个男孩。然后用三个响亮的(响亮的)的回荡在大厅里鸡叫，大厅明亮又在瞬间点燃。

然后，卧室的朱国章代表要求我们猜测了有关上述情况的诗。他补充说，李新民单是出生在狗年，其他三个都在鸡年出生的。他们给我们留下了所有的混乱。它是我们的班长谁是quickwitted(机智的)。他喊我们，“天休息的鸡叫三在黎明倍。“大厅之后，他们还有另外一个项目。这一次李新民被放置在圆的中间。当他站在那里，其他三个人围着他站着，低头在每一个120度的角度下去见他。这是一个成语。这一次我得到了它的权利：“。狗中脱颖而出的鸡群!“

正月十五吃元宵，在我国是由来已久习俗。人们在元宵节吃汤圆，实际上是思念亲人、渴望团圆的意思。

Eating Tangyuan is an important tradition for the Lantern Festival. Tangyuan, also know as yuanxiao, is a Chinese food made from glutinous rice flour mixed with a small amount of water to form balls and is then cooked and served in boiling water.

吃汤圆是元宵节的一项重要习俗。汤圆，又名“元宵”，是由糯米粉等做的球形食品，一般有馅料，煮熟带汤吃。

Traditionally, the balls come stuffed with sweet black sesame paste, although the fillings can vary. Tangyuan are eaten during Lantern Festival because of a homophone for union.

通常用黑芝麻做馅，但又不仅限于黑芝麻。据说元宵象征合家团圆美好，吃元宵意味着新的一年合家幸福、团团圆圆，所以正月十五元宵必备。

Decorating and hanging lanterns is the main tradition of the festival, with lanterns big and small hung around households, parks, streets and other public spaces. Red lanterns of various shape and type will attract countless visitors to watch.

正月十五赏花灯是元宵节必有的另一项习俗。人们把大大小小的花灯悬挂于家门口、公园、街道或者其他公共场所。各式各样的红灯笼将会吸引无数的游客前来观赏。

Solving riddles on lanterns has been a popular tradition since the Song Dynasty. People write riddles on paper and stick them to the lanterns and if someone guesses correctly, they can pull the riddle off. The notes often contain messages of good fortune and wishes.

从宋代开始，猜灯谜就是一项非常受欢迎的民俗活动。人们把谜语写到纸上并悬之于灯，供人猜射。通常，谜底都是各种吉祥话和祝福。

The lion dance is one of the oldest traditions to celebrate the Chinese New Year. In ancient times, people regarded the lion as a symbol of bravery and strength and believed the dance could drive away bad fortune to protect people and their livestock. The custom has continued to the modern day and lion dances are performed at important events on the Chinese calendar, such as the Lantern Festival, to bring good luck.

舞狮子是另一项庆祝新春的古老习俗。在古代，人们把狮子作为勇气和力量的象征，认为舞狮可以消灾降福。所以舞狮子的传统就延续至今，并且每逢佳节或庆典，如元宵节都会以舞狮子来祈求好运。

Dragon dance is a form of traditional dance and performance in Chinese culture. Like the lion dance it is most often seen in festival celebration. The dance is performed by a team of dancers who manipulate a long flexible figure of a dragon using poles positioned at regular intervals along the length of the dragon.

舞龙灯是中国独具特色的民俗活动。与舞狮子一样，每逢佳节，人们都要耍龙灯。表演者由数十人组成，每人用一杆间隔支撑起一条长龙。

Chinese dragons are a symbol of China, and they are believed to bring good luck to people, therefore the longer the dragon in the dance, the more luck it will bring to the community.

龙是中国的象征，相传龙能够带来吉祥和好运。耍的龙灯越长，就越能给当地人民带来好运。因此，每逢春节、元宵节，人们都会举行耍龙灯的活动。

Walking on stilts, or Cai Gaoqiao, is another popular traditional performance for the Lantern Festival, especially in Northern China. According to the archives, our Chinese ancestors began using stilts to help them gather fruits from trees. This practical use of stilts gradually developed into a kind of folk dance.

踩高跷是元宵节的另外一项重要民俗，尤其是在北方地区。根据记载，我们的祖先踩高跷是为了从树上摘果子。之后，高跷就发展成为一种群众性技艺表演艺术。

春节习俗春节，是小朋友最盼望的节日，因为可以放鞭炮，可以添新衣，可以收压岁钱，这对于小朋友是最快乐的事了。但是我们每年都过得春节到底有什么习俗呢？

贴对联，放鞭炮在我们的爷爷奶奶的口中是这么来的：传说每到腊月的除夕日，每一个村庄都会出现一个千古神兽——“年”，“年”每年在这个时候都会出现来吃人，害人。有一年年兽又一次出来吃人，正巧有一户人家正在生着火，年兽看到了那一团红火，火焰烧到了木材上发出了声响，年兽看到了火焰听到了响声，立马拔腿就跑，最后就形成了鞭炮与对联。

除夕夜过去了，到了腊月三十那天，全家都在一起吃着团圆饭，热热闹闹，伴着时间的悄悄流逝，到了晚上24点，钟声敲响的那一刻，鞭炮声响起，新的一年就这样来临了。

正月初一时家家户户开始走亲戚，拎着礼物去个亲戚送上祝福，每个小孩子都会收到属于自己的压岁钱。

我喜爱春节，春节的习俗是这么丰富这么有趣，我热爱春节！！！

1)The Spring Festival comes after New Years Day.Its usually in January or February.Its the Chinese New Years Day.The Spring Festival is the biggest festival in China.All of the Chinese like this festival.When it comes,people are busy.They usually do some cleaning,go to the stores to buy some new clothes and a lot of meat,vegetables and fruit.On the eve of the festival,everyone in the family comes back home from other places.They get together and have a big supper .They eat dumplings,New Years cake and some other delicious food in their houses.Some people like New Years cake,but more people think dumplings are the most delicious food of all.Some families have a party.They sing,dance and have a good time.I like this festival very much because I can play with my friends and I can get "red envelopes".

中国人的传统里有各种形形色色的饭局，但天字一号重要的当属大年三十晚上的这顿年夜饭年夜饭代表着至高无上，古时的贤明圣祖在年三十这天也会特赦犯人们回家去吃顿年夜饭，因为这顿饭代表着一个人真实活在世上至高无上的权力，对于中国人而言这是无可替代的，前几年导演张元拍了一部《过年回家》，通过女犯人回家吃年夜饭讲述了一个人性宽容的故事，最后电影为张元捧回了一个"人道主义精神奖"。

年饭早已超出了"吃"的范围，年饭桌上的东西，早就不一定非得到过年才有得吃。年饭之意不在饭，而在于那份人与人之间的温馨。年夜饭象征着幸福憧憬，再惨，惨不过杨白劳，但在年三十这天，杨白劳也要给喜儿买条红头绳，想办法张罗着吃顿年夜饭，喜儿那段"爹爹带回白面来，欢欢喜喜过个年"的唱词让我的父辈在忆苦思甜的过程中知道了什么叫"悲剧的铺垫"。

年夜饭就是中国人最内核的向心力，年夜饭的温情正是这样一种铭刻在民族的骨头里，温暖在一家人的问候中，沸腾在每一个人血脉中的温情。这种温情是大年三十母亲唠叨在灯下的叮嘱，也是无数的游子顶着寒风，踏着大雪往家里赶的执着与真诚。中国人最讲至亲至情，受"礼仪之邦"的影响至深。但现代社会中很多家庭成员为生计、为发展，各奔东西，平时难得一聚。一起吃顿年饭，一家人酒肴相对，轻言细语，诉说别后离情，生活感悟，该是何等惬意之事!

我们对年夜饭的重视，也就是对传统的重视，对自己身份的认知，《尔雅·释天》中说："年者，禾熟之名，每岁一熟，故以岁为名"，把"年"当作收获的象征，于是大家聚在一起烧些好东西吃一顿，这种庆祝的活动也就成了年夜饭。

这顿饭更重要的在于一个形式，吃年夜饭时，家家都要有一道菜即全鱼，取年年有余之意。在我国南方，鱼是整个宴席的最后一道菜，大家并不是真正的去吃，只是端上来摆摆样子，留到明年表示日子有富余。还有些地区，第一个热菜就上全鱼，直到宴会结束时，大家才象征性地吃上几口。除夕鱼寄托着人们希望家业发达、年年有余的美好愿望。广州人的年夜饭桌上通常会有"发财就手"、"发财好市"这样的意头菜，不过是件讨口彩的事情，但大家还是认真虔诚地做了。
