传统佳节春节springfestival英语作文（通用20篇）

清晨，窗外传来一阵阵“噼噼啪啪”的爆竹声。我飞身下床，朝窗外望去，大街上人来人往，身上都穿着红色的新棉袄。哇，今天是春节。春节如期而至了，大街小巷热闹非凡。现在，我就来介绍一下我们十堰过春节的习俗。

每到过春节的时候，家家户户都要贴春联。春联是对联的一种，因在春节时张贴，故名。最初人们是以桃木刻成人形挂在门旁用以避邪，后来简化为在桃木板上题写门神的名字。春联多用红纸书写，代表着吉祥、幸福。

当午夜交正子时，新年钟声敲响之际，整个城市的上空，爆竹声震响天宇。在这一刻，有的人家还在庭院里垒“旺火”，以示旺气通天，兴隆繁盛。在熊熊燃烧的旺火周围，孩子们放爆竹，欢乐地活蹦乱跳。这时，屋内是通明的灯火，庭前是灿烂的火花，屋外是震天的响声，把除夕的热闹气氛推向了最高潮。每到过春节的时候，也正是主妇们在厨房里最忙碌的时刻，年菜都在前几天做好了，而年夜饭总要在年三十当天由掌厨的做出来，而且大年初一的饺子也要在三十晚上包出来。这时家家的砧板都在噔噔噔地忙着剁肉、切菜。此时，砧板声、爆竹声，再夹杂着人们的说笑声，此起彼伏，洋洋盈耳，交织成除夕欢快的乐章。

吃年夜饭是春节家家户户最热闹愉快的时候，丰盛的年菜摆满一桌，合家团聚，围坐桌旁，共吃团圆饭，心头的充实感真是难以言喻。人们既是享受满桌的佳肴盛馔，也是享受那份快乐的气氛。我们这里一般少不了两样东西，一是火锅。一是鱼。火锅沸煮，热气腾腾，温馨撩人，说明红红火火;“鱼”和“余”谐音，是象征“吉庆有余”，也喻示“年年有余”。还有萝卜俗称菜头，祝愿有好彩头;龙虾、爆鱼等煎炸食物，预祝家运兴旺如“烈火烹油”。最后多为一道甜食，祝福往后的日子甜甜蜜蜜，这天，即使不会喝酒的，也要多少喝一点。

一时间，十堰的过节习俗说也说不完，等你到了这里，你就能亲身感受到它的魅力。

每年，我都很期待春节的到来，因为热闹，因为一家人在一起的温馨。

春节的前一天是除夕，也就是大年三十。关于除夕有这么一个传说：古时候有一个怪物叫夕，每一年的岁末它就会来害人。后来，人们知道夕最怕声响和红光。于是到了那天，大家就点燃鞭炮，门上贴上了春联，把夕给吓跑了。就这样人们为了纪念这一天，把大年三十定为除夕日。

现在每到这一天，家家户户都会贴春联，放鞭炮，开开心心地过除夕。

这一天，我家也一样。全家人可忙了：爸爸和爷爷忙着布置房间，妈妈和奶奶忙着准备晚餐，我和姐姐忙着放鞭炮。

到了晚上，全家围着圆桌开开心心地吃起了团圆饭。看，大圆桌上摆满了丰盛的美味佳肴：有红红的大龙虾，有香喷喷的红烧肉，有色泽鲜艳的蔬菜等，最引人注目的是桌子中间的热腾腾的饺子，看得我口水直流。我们把菜吃得干干净净。尤其是爸爸，他的肚子已经圆溜溜了，他还要吃。吃完饭，我们还拿到了大人们分给的压岁钱。

吃完饭，大家就一起放烟花。看，一朵朵五颜六色的鲜花飞到了夜空中，这些颜色可美了！红的似火、白的像雪、粉的如霞姿态也很吸引人，有的如金花四溅，有的像天女散花，有的似孔雀开屏真是姿态万千呀！望着五彩缤纷的烟花，我们都笑开了怀。

多么美好的除夕之夜啊！多么令人憧憬啊！

Hi! Peter,

I’m glad to know you are having a good time in Chengdu.

TheSpring Festival is the most important festival in China. It is a custom to give lucky money to children. I get lucky money every year. I will put most of it in the bank, and spend the rest on some books. This year is no exception(也不例外) and I also got lucky money.With it, I bought some school things for several poor students in Ningxia，hoping the things can bring some happiness to them.

For you, I think it’s a good idea to buy a gift with the lucky money for your hostfamily before you leave China. You can also buy some Chinese gifts for your parents and friends in England. Or, just keep it as good memories.

I hope what I said can help you.

Yours,

Li Hua

The  new year, a new start, when I stand on the edge of a new year, I cant help thinking about my plan of next year.

Just as the old saying：“Well began is the half of the success.”So I decide that I should be at work while the others are still relaxing ，and then, at the beginning, Im quicker than the others and of course I will get better result than the others.

But, what I really decide to do is that I must make good of anytime I can spare though it seems impossible. While, I will do my best to live up with what I have planned, and the result will prove it.

新的一年，新的开始，当我站在新年的边缘时，我禁不住想起我明年的计划。

正如俗话所说：“好的开始是成功的一半”，所以我决定我应该在工作，而其他人仍然放松，然后，在开始的时候，我比其他人更快，当然我会得到比其他人更好的结果。

但是，我真正决定要做的是，无论何时何地我都要好好利用，尽管这似乎是不可能的。同时，我会尽我最大的努力实现我的计划，结果将证明这一点。

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。下面小编带来的是关于英语春节的作文，希望对你有帮助。

一年中有许多节日，如：元旦、清明、端午。但是，走进我的记忆海滩，你会发现，里头有一颗珍珠，最圆最亮。那就是春节时留下的最美的，也是最快乐的记忆！

春节的时候，家家户户都会贴春联，包饺子……但对于孩子们来说，放鞭炮才叫春节的一大乐事呢！

每到春节，孩子们总会三五成群地围在一团，比谁的炮最多，谁的炮最响。这不，表弟正拿着各自的鞭炮，来到楼下那早已被烟花点缀得漂漂亮亮的操场。表弟笑着说：“我们来比一比谁的烟花炮最漂亮吧！”“好！”我答应了他，并且拿出烟花炮放在地上，手里的打火机对准了烟花炮的引线，喊道：“一二三，预备，发射！”顿时“嗖——”的一声，烟花弹上天了，接下来“啪”的一声，烟花弹裂了，无数彩色的烟花从中射出，夜空中又多了几分色彩。看，那群烟花多像一位位仙女，正挥舞着绸缎跳舞呀！一群放完了烟花的小朋友笑嘻地问我：“姐姐，能不能再放几个烟花？”还没等我回话，表弟就打开了话匣子没问题！”一阵回答后，“啪、啪、啪”更多的烟花炮被表弟放上了夜空。夜空变得更迷人了，而那些在天空中绽放的烟花，不就像那些小弟弟、小妹妹的笑容一样，如此地可爱吗？在欢声笑语中，烟花已经放完了，表弟拿着烟花炮放完后剩的空壳来当足球，那只炮壳上的灰已经布满了他的手，当他踢”球“踢累了，就用手来擦汗，却把自己变成了一只大花猫，使得身旁小朋友的笑声也更欢了，表弟也笑了，我也笑了……

啊！愉快的春节，你什么时候可以再次到来，我不但盼望您，更盼望能再次聆听那最天真、最可爱、最无邪的笑声呀！

大家肯定都知道春节吧，春节是我国最隆重的节日。想知道这个节日有什么习俗，就来看看我的作文吧。

大家在过春节时都放鞭炮，因为鞭炮是为春节而制作的，所以每逢春节来临，家家户户都燃放烟花爆竹，庆祝春节的到来。放鞭炮在古代是为了赶走一个叫“年”的怪兽，“年”欺压百姓，但人们放鞭炮赶走了它。所以放鞭炮作为一种春节习俗流传至今。

除了放鞭炮，贴对联也是一种春节习俗。对联是用红纸做的，人们相信红色可以降妖除魔，所以用红纸做对联。每一家都贴有对联，门上还贴了“福”字，“福”是倒着贴的，为什么呢?哈哈，意思是表示“福”倒(到)了。

拜年也是春节习俗，我最喜欢拜年了，因为拜年可以挣压岁钱呢!拜年一般在大年初一的早上，大家都起床很早，相遇时互相问好说祝福语，然后互相拜年发压岁钱，这时候是我最高兴的时刻啦!拜完年我回家数着自己的压岁钱，心里美滋滋的。

春节的习俗还有很多，如穿新衣，大家一起吃饺子……现在这几年又举办了一些游戏，可以玩，大家都开心。春节的习俗真多呀!

“啪啪—— ”在鞭炮声中，我迎来了有一个春节。 拜年、放鞭炮、吃饺子……春节的气氛异常的浓烈。

一大早，我和爸爸妈妈去拜年。来到了姥姥的家。“姥姥，新年好！”“噢，有长高了，来来来，快吃点糖、花生。”“不用了、不用了。”“这怎么可以？你不吃，姥姥要不高兴了。”说着，姥姥硬是把糖啊、花生啊之类的塞东西给了我，还装出一副不高兴的样子。姥姥和爸爸妈妈又聊了一会，像“新年有什么打算啊？”“去年过的怎么样？”只类的话题。

临走时，姥姥装出一副神秘的样子，说“嘘——来来来。”我不知姥姥葫芦里买的是什么药，但还是随姥姥进了里屋。“来，祝宝贝新年快乐。”说着拿出了一个大红包。我看了忙说“这哪里好意思？”“又不听姥姥话了！听姥姥的，收下！”姥姥用命令的口气说，并网我口袋里放。我怎么推都推不掉，灵机一动，趁姥姥没注意，把姥姥给我的压岁钱，塞在他的枕头下，我暗自得意，姥姥正忙，也没注意到。

回家的路上，看着人人脸上洋溢着喜色心理暖洋洋的。边走边想：当姥姥看见枕头下的红包时，他准会说，这孩子，真懂事。

今天真高兴，我喜欢这个令我高兴的节日。

我们国家的传统节日可多了，有团团圆圆的中秋节，有热热闹闹的端午节，有登高插茱萸的重阳节……但我最喜欢的是喜气洋洋的春节。

春节前夕，家家户户都忙碌着。腊月要扫舍，祭灶王爷、买年货……对了对了，我们还要去买福字、灯笼、对联，这些都是必不可少的，除了要去市场买年货，还要去食品商场买春节要用的食材。

除夕那晚就更热闹了。妈妈会给我们做一桌子丰盛的年夜饭，像什么小龙虾、麻辣鱼、油滋滋的猪蹄、麻辣豆腐、红烧肉、甜饭、爆炒鱿鱼……这些美食总能让人直流口水！还记得今年的年夜饭桌上，爸爸妈妈举起可乐，对爷爷奶奶说：“爸妈新年快乐！”见此情景，我也端起可乐对爷爷奶奶说：“祝爷爷奶奶，越活越年轻！”爷爷奶奶听后，一边拿红包，一边笑呵呵地说：“也祝孙女学习进步，天天向上。”就这样，我们一家人一边吃着年夜饭，一边看着春晚，有说有笑地等待着12点钟声的敲响。

大年初一，一大早我就被噼里啪啦的鞭炮声惊醒，换上新衣，吃过妈妈亲手包的饺子后，爸爸就带着我开始去亲戚家拜年。我最喜欢去拜年了，因为每次回来我的口袋都是鼓鼓的，全是压岁钱。

我真希望天天都是我最喜欢的传统节日——春节。

Will Christmas Replace the Spring Festival？

Christmas arouses increasing attention year by year in China。 Christmas cards bee popular with students。 People hold Christmas parties and exchange Christmas girts。 A lot or TV and radio programs about Christmas are on。 Meanwhile the Spring Festival is less appealing （有吸引力的）to youngsters。 Thus some people wonder whether Christmas will replace the Spring Festival。

This worry is fairly unnecessary。 Why ？ One reason lies that Christmas only affects Christians，college students and joint-venture （合资企业）workers。 Another reason is that Christmas is mostly celebrated in cities。 Few people in countryside show extreme interest in this exotic（带有异国情调的） festival。 By contrast，the Spring Festival is the most influential traditional festival in every family。

I think，it is natural that with increasing exchanges with the West，a lot of Western holidays have been gradually introduced into China。 For us Chinese we should never neglect or even discard our own traditional festivals。 For centuries Chinese have observed this traditional holiday to wele the beginning of a new year。 And we will treasure the Spring Festival forever。

春节来了!春节是我们全民的节日。是新年的第一天!

The spring Festival is coming soon! The festivel is considereded the most important one for Chinese people. It is on the first day of lunar year. It is also the day of reunion among family members. During these days, people would say "happy new year! or wish you make fortune! to each other. They would also visit their relatives and friends. Children would be given "red packets". Children would have more to eat and play than usual.Playing firecrackers is also a popular game for children.

Today is New Years Day, the outside decorated, celebrate, extremely busy!

The streets are: firecrackers, the drums and gongs of. The most fun but also a few dance the dragon, the first one uncle Wu Zhao a "dragon pearl", the other uncle, Wu Zhao 2 "Dragon", each a "dragon" are trying to "Dragon Ball" became his treasured.

Very happy today!

今天是大年初一，外面张灯结彩、普天同庆，热闹极了！

大街上有：放鞭炮的、敲锣打鼓的。最好玩的还要数舞龙灯，第一个叔叔舞着一颗“龙珠”，其他的叔叔舞着两条“龙”，每一条“龙”都想把“龙珠”变成自己的宝贝。

今天开心极了！

过春节家家都要放鞭炮、吃团圆饭、吃元宵灯一些活动。放鞭炮这个词对男孩子来说肯定很耳熟。我们过春节要放鞭炮是因为，表示下一个年头，希望家人团聚，合家欢乐，平平安安，还有表示财运等一些含义。

今年过年放鞭炮，使我知道了鞭炮的由来，今年过春节大家吃完团圆饭要放鞭炮。今年我和几个小伙伴们吃完团圆饭去放鞭炮，我们几个觉得这十分无聊，我们便开始在地上干坐着。其中一个小伙伴给我们说起了鞭炮的起源：“相传，中国古时候有一种叫”年“的怪兽，头长触角，凶猛异常。”年“长年深居海底，每到除夕才爬上岸，吞食牲畜伤害人命。因此，每到除夕这天，村村寨寨的人们扶老携幼逃往深山，以躲避”年“兽的伤害。这年除夕，桃花村的人们正扶老携幼上山避难，从村外来了个乞讨的老人，只见他手拄拐杖，臂搭袋囊，银须飘逸，目若朗星。乡亲们有的封窗锁门，有的收拾行装，有的牵牛赶羊，到处人喊马嘶，一片匆忙恐慌景象。这时，谁还有心关照这位乞讨的老人。

只有村东头一位老婆婆给了老人些食物，并劝他快上山躲避”年“兽，那老人捋髯笑道：”婆婆若让我在家呆一夜，我一定把“年”兽撵走。

老婆婆惊目细看，见他鹤发童颜、精神矍铄，气宇不凡。可她仍然继续劝说，乞讨老人笑而不语……“当他讲完时我们都说他知识丰富。

今年过年真让我受益匪浅呀!

my plan of next year

A Happy New Year ，a new start，when I stand on the edge of a Happy New Year，I cant help thinking about my plan of next year.

Just as the old saying：“Well began is the half of the success.”So I decide that I should be at work while the others are still relaxing ，and then ，at the beginning ，Im quicker than the others and of course I will get better result than the others.

But ，what I really decide to do is that I must make good of anytime I can spare though it seems impossible. While，I will do my best to live up with what I have planned，and the result will prove it.

Chinese New Year starts with the new moon on the first day of the new year

and ends on the the full days later. In china,people regard Spring Festival as

the most important thing.People studied and worked throughout the year.No matter

how far and how busy, they must do their best to go back home.Thats a tradition

and now becoming a habit. During this time,transport is extremely busy.Although

the way is difficult,it cant reduce the urgent feeling of going home.I cant

describe this feeling,only the people that experienced it can

understand.Actually,on one hand,people miss their family,and they need to get

comfort in the family.On the other hand,getting together is a symbol of

blessedness and auspiciousness.People in other country dont have this

consciousness that going home is necessary.For example,American could celebrate

the Christmas in everywhere they like or with anybody.This diversity is

occasioned by different culture between two countries.

On Spring festivals eve,the whole family prepare the dinner.Of

course,dumplings is essential.In the

evening,family members always sit at the television and watch Spring

Festival Gala.At 0:00,people set off firecrackers and fireworks,at the same

time,children pay New Year,s call to old people.The old people give money to the

children as a lunar new year gift.Usually,people stay up late or all night.

On lunar New Years Day, the Chinese family eat vegetarian dumplings which

imply they will plain and neat in this year. People change their new

clothes,this stands for a new beginning.Next,people visit relatives with some

gifts.The second day is son-in-laws festival,the husband and married women

visit their side of the family.In a word,Chinese attach great importance to

Spring Festival.

Spring festival is the most important festival in China. During Spring festival, people visit their relatives, sending their best wishes for a new year. Children are the happiest in spring festival. They will receive red envelopes that contain money as new year presents. They can also play crackers and fireworks. Whats more, they are given a lot of freedom, which they have dreammed of for a whole year. During Spring festival, there will be plenty of foods. Thats why many people put on "holiday weight" after Spring festival. When it comes to food, there are many festival specialties. The world famous Jiaozi and Chunjuan(spring roll) have even been accepted by foreigners as fast foods. Spring festival usually comes in Feburary, sometimes earlier. Its a festival full of hope and good wishes. Its a symbol of Chinese culture.

春节是中国最重要的节日。春节里，人们走亲访友，把新年的祝福送给彼此。孩子们在春节期间是最高兴的了。他们通常都会接到装着钱的红包作为新年礼物。他们还可以玩烟花爆竹。他们甚至会得到他们梦想了一整年的自由。春节期间，到处都是各种各样的食物。这就是为什么很多人在春节过后都得上“假期综合症”的原因了。说道食物，有很多带有节日特色的东西。闻名世界的饺子和春卷现在也被外国人作为速食而广泛接受。春节通常都在二月，有时候也会早点儿。春节是一个充满了美好祝愿和愿望的节日。它是中国文化的象征。

“五月五，是端阳。插艾叶，戴香囊。吃粽子，撒白糖。龙船下水喜洋洋”。每年农历五月初五为端午节，又称端阳节、午日节、艾节、端午、重午、午日、夏节。虽然名称各不同，但各地人民过节的习俗是相同的，端午节是我国二千多年的旧习俗，每到这一天，家家户户都会赛龙舟；吃粽子，饮雄黄酒，佩香囊。

传说，屈原是战国时期出国人，很有学问。他在楚王身边做官，为国忠诚。昏君楚王却听信奸臣的话，把屈原削职流放。在流放中，屈原听说楚国的都城被敌人占领，百姓遭难，悲愤极了。五月初五这一天，他来到汨罗江边，怀抱一块石头，以纵身跳入汨罗江中。出国的百姓听到屈原投江的消息，都十分悲痛。他们含着泪划着船赶来打捞屈原，还把粽子扔到江里喂鱼，希望鱼儿不要伤害屈原的身体。这就是五月端阳包粽子的来历。

在过端午节时，人们有赛龙舟、吃粽子、饮雄黄酒、挂荷包和栓五色丝线等许多习俗。这些习俗都是为了驱邪或纪念屈原的死。

端午节的许多习俗与“五”这个字联系在一起。用红、黄、蓝、白、黑，五色丝线系在儿童脖颈、手腕或足踝上称为“长命缕”。各家要插“五端”：菖蒲、艾草、石榴花、蒜头、龙船花。过端午节还要吃五黄：黄鱼、黄瓜、咸鸭蛋黄、黄豆瓣包的粽子、雄黄酒……

端午节真是一个有趣的传统佳节！
