Will Christmas Replace the Spring Festival?

Christmas arouses increasing attention year by year in China. Christmas cards become 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 welcome the beginning of a new year. And we will treasure the Spring Festival forever.

The Spring Festival couplet also to spring posts, accusation, couplet, subsidiary, TaoFu etc, it with neatly and dual, concise, exquisite words describe background, to express good wishes, is Chinas unique form of literature.

Every Chinese New Year, no matter the city or the country, every family to select a pair of bright red stick in the Spring Festival couplets on the door, increase for the festival festival atmosphere.

This custom up in song dynasty, in the beginning in the Ming dynasty, the qing dynasty, the Spring Festival couplet ideological content and artistic quality has improved a lot.

Immersed in a happy festival atmosphere all over the world, we finally ushered in the long-awaited Spring Festival, children put on new clothes shoes went to the reunion dinner with mom and dad, to the sound of firecrackers sounded.

Shopping came in an endless stream, some are buying New Year pictures, some are buying necessities and some sit around the stove fire box to watch TV, there are people playing mahjong playing poker, and so on.

Anyway, the street colourful, all kinds of people, a full range of variety of goods, full of beautiful things in eyes, Im afraid people want to buy what all difficult to choose!

在全世界都沉浸在快乐的过节气氛中，我们终于迎来了期待已久的春节，小朋友都穿上新衣新鞋和爸爸妈妈去吃团圆饭了，开始有鞭炮的声音响起来。

逛街的人络绎不绝，有的在买年画，有的在买年货，有的坐着火箱围着火炉看电视，还有的人在打麻将打扑克，等等不一而足。

反正街上五彩缤纷，各种各样的人都有，各种各样的货物都齐全，琳琅满目，人们恐怕想买什么都难选择!

I had a great Chinese New Year.On the first day of the Chinese New Year,my parents and I visited my grandparents.They own a large ranch in the countryside,surrounded by corn fields and green pastry.It’s a very beautiful ranch and the air is very clean.I helped my grandparents feed the chicken and groom the horses.I really like horses and I spent quite some time riding them along the river for several miles.I enjoyed a lot at my grandparents’home.

The Spring Festival春节

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 Year’s 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.

[关于过春节的打算英语作文

在中国,凡逢春节和其他的喜庆日子,人们总要燃放爆竹来表示庆贺.燃放爆竹可以说是中国民间一个十分重要的风俗习惯.

爆竹也叫"炮竹","爆仗","炮仗",平常人们更习惯叫"鞭炮",有大约2000多年的历史了.最早的爆竹叫"庭燎".是用竹竿一类的东西做成火炬,燃烧时发出噼噼啪啪的爆裂声,也叫"爆竿.

燃放爆竹风俗最早起因于驱鬼除邪,祈求一年的吉祥顺利.传说,有个叫做"山臊"的四角怪兽和恶鬼平常藏在深山,每隔365天便出来伤害人畜.这些无恶不做的坏东西害怕爆炸的声音和亮光.于是,每到岁末年首,人们就争着燃放鞭炮,用来驱赶"山臊"和恶鬼.

中国的唐代发明火药以后,人们便把火药放进竹筒,点燃后发出巨大的声音,这种爆竹叫做"爆竹筒".到了宋代,爆竹的制作方法改为把火药装进用纸卷成的筒里,名字也叫爆竹了.后来人们开始把许多小的炮仗用药线连接起来,成为"一发连百余响不绝"的鞭炮.讲究的鞭炮用红颜色的纸制作,鞭炮爆炸后,红屑满地,人称"满地红",表示吉利.随着发展,鞭炮的品种和色彩也由原来的单调发展得丰富多彩,有小鞭炮,电光雷,母子雷,射天炮,百头,千头鞭,甚至还有几万头长的鞭炮.

现在,随着人们环保意识的加强,燃放鞭炮的习俗在中国很多大城市中受到禁止.但是,聪明的中国人依然想出了其他热闹的庆祝节日的办法.

We will look at some of the legends behind Chinese new year and how to celebrate it. Here in the US and Chinese across the world.

The Chinese have specific way to celebrate their new year. If you walk down the street in Chinatown during Chinese New Year, you see a variety of ancient traditions such as red banners, firecrackers and lion dance performances, streets are filled with lively celebration.

However, legend has said that the new year has not always been a time of festivity. An Asian Chinese story told a chilly start to this festive holiday, it begins with an ancient Chinese beast called Nian.

Every New Year Nian would rise from swelling in the sea to ravage Chinese village in livestock and hurting people. The villages soon found out from a wise gray-haired old man that the only way to scare the beast away was to set off firecrackers and light lamps and to hang red banners on each door. As the story goes, this was the beginning of a tradition that would last thousands of years.

So this story leads to the creation of many of other traditions for celebrating Chinese New Year. lets take a look at some of these traditions.

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".

Happy New Year Party

On Happy 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."

Probably more food is consumed during the New Year celebrations than any other time of the year.

或许春节中食物的消耗比一年中其他时候都要大

Vast amounts of traditional food is prepared for family and friends, as well as those close to us who have died.

大量的传统食物被准备给家人和朋友,同样还有逝去的亲近的人

On New Years Day, the Chinese family will eat a vegetarian dish called jai.

在春节当天,中国家庭将吃一种蔬菜制的名为"jai"(春卷……大概)的食物

Although the various ingredients in jai are root vegetables or fibrous vegetables, many people attribute various superstitious aspects to them.

尽管春卷里的配料都只是根菜或粗纤维蔬菜，许多人还是把各种迷信方面的事归于它们

Other foods include a whole fish, to represent togetherness and abundance, and a chicken for prosperity.

用其他食物，包括一整条鱼，来代表团圆和富饶，或一只鸡来代表兴旺

The chicken must be presented with a head, tail and feet to symbolize completeness. Noodles should be uncut, as they represent long life.

这只鸡必须要有头有胃还有脚来象征完整。面则不能被切断，因为他们代表了长寿

In south China, the favorite and most typical dishes were nian gao, sweet steamed glutinous rice(糯米)pudding and zong zi (glutinous rice wrapped up in reed(芦苇)leaves), another popular delicacy.

在南方，最受喜爱和具代表性的食物是用甜糯米捏成的年糕，另一道受欢迎的美食是用芦苇包上糯米作成的粽子。

In the north, steamed-wheat bread (man tou) and small meat dumplings were the preferred food.

在北方，馒头和小甜饺是首选

The tremendous amount of food prepared at this time was meant to symbolize abundance and wealth for the household

这种时候准备巨量的食品是味了象征家庭的丰饶，富有。

Prepare for the Chinese New Year

It’s about one and a half month away from the Chinese New Year, It is a festival celebrated by the Chinese people at the beginning of the lunar calendar year.

As of the Chinese traditional customs, our parents and grandparents will sweep every corner of the house and clean the windows until they gleam, and washing clothes, buying foods and goods for the new year’s future use and presents.

Children will be the most benefited group during this feast period. One month before that, they are expecting the new clothes, delicious foods. The firecrackers and the year’s allowance for their increased ages.

In recent years, with the rising of the standard of life, Chinese tend to make various holiday plans to spend a different and meaningful new year. Such as traveling abroad, or be absorbed in their hobbies, and even work.

Why today we try to spend our Chinese new year in such a different way? I think that’s because this is a era of free life and personality high-ranking. Though there are still something traditional, our young generation is attempting to make something new and suitable for ourselves. And we would like to take something really worth to be cherished in our memorable treasures. That’s amazing and wonderful!

I’ll always keep in mind that the Chinese new year is a great feast inherited from our ancestors, but if necessary, I would like to enjoy it by some ways personal.

导语：近年来，互联网正以惊人的速度普及。一些人认为，互联网给我们带来很多好处，但另一方面，也有许多人强烈主张，其弊端也不容忽视。下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

In recent years,the Internet has been gaining its popularity at an amazing rate.Some people suggest that the Internet brings us a lot of benefits.But on the other hand,there are also many people who strongly advocate that its drawbacks should not be ignored.It is quite understandable that people from different backgrounds put different interpretations on the same issue.

Those who favor that the Internet has many advantages give their reasons as follows.In the first place,the Internet brings us great convenience and efficiency.For example,we can send E-mails to our friends in other countries in a few minutes while sending a traditional letter takes us at least a week and cost much.In the second place,we can make friends with people from all parts of the world.It overcomes the geographical barriers and makes the world smaller.Furthermore,the Internet accelerates the flow of information and spreads education to all corners of the globe.We can have easy and quick access to the latest information worldwide.

However,the other side of the coin voices its strong opposition,saying that the Internet has many weaknesses.For one thing,it can easily lead to psychological problems.An internet-addicted person tends to be isolated,self-centered and unsociable.For another,there is a sharp rise in the number of cyber crimes.More and more financial crimes such as money laundering are committed via the Internet.In addition,it also has negative impacts on young people because there are a lot of obscene and violent contents on line.

There is probably a litter bit of truth in both arguments.For my part,I completely agree with the latter view that the Internet has more disadvantages than advantages.It gives rise to people’s mental problems.It results in various computer crimes.What is more,it is harmful to the growth of the young.Something should be done as soon as possible to protect people from the negative effects of the Internet.

【参考译文】

近年来，互联网正以惊人的速度普及。一些人认为，互联网给我们带来很多好处，但另一方面，也有许多人强烈主张，其弊端也不容忽视。它是来自不同的背景，提出不同的解释，对同一个问题人们完全可以理解。

那些认为因特网有很多好处给他们的理由如下：首先，互联网给我们带来了极大的方便和效率。例如，我们可以发送电子邮件给我们的朋友在其他国家在几分钟内同时发送一个传统信需要我们至少一周的费用多。第二的地方，我们可以和来自世界各地的人交朋友。它克服了地域的障碍，使世界变小了。此外，互联网加速了信息的流动和教育波及到世界各个角落。我们可以方便快捷的访问到全世界最新的信息。

然而，硬币的声音强烈反对对方，说互联网有很多缺点。首先，它导致了心理上的问题。一个沉迷于网络的人往往是孤立的，以自我为中心，不合群。另一方面，在网络犯罪数量急剧上升，越来越多的金融犯罪通过互联网。此外，它还具有对青少年的负面影响，因为在网上有很多淫秽和暴力的内容。

这两种观点可能都有点道理，就我而言，我完全同意，互联网弊大于利的观点。它增加了人们的心理问题，导致各种各样的电脑犯罪。更重要的是，它是对年轻人的成长是有害的。应该尽快做好保护人们不受网络的负面影响。

About the gift money, there is a widely circulated story. In ancient times, a demon called "evil spirit", the thirty night of sleeping with his hand to touch the childs head, children are often scared to cry, then headache fever, become a fool. Therefore, every family to sit on this day liangzhaodeng not sleep, called "keep away evil spirits".The couple have a son in old age, as a baby.

In thirty years the night, they were afraid of the "evil spirit" to harm children, took eight coins to play with the kids. Children play tired to fall asleep, they put eight coins wrapped in red paper on the childs pillow below, the couple not sleep a wink. In the middle of the night the ghostly wind blowing open the door, blew out the lights," evil spirit" has just reached out to touch the childs head, the pillow will burst with flash, scared" evil spirit" and ran away. The very next day, the couple put eight coins wrapped in red paper scare, "evil spirit" and told everyone, after we learn to do, the children the world is at peace.The original eight coins is 0.08 change, the secret to protect the child. Because the "evil spirit" and "old" homophonic, then gradually evolved into" gift money".

关于压岁钱，有一个流传很广的故事。古时候，有一种小妖叫“祟”，大年三十晚上出来用手去摸熟睡着的孩子的头，孩子往往吓得哭起来，接着头疼发热，变成傻子。因此，家家都在这天亮着灯坐着不睡，叫做“守祟”。

有一家夫妻俩老年得子，视为心肝宝贝。到了年三十夜晚，他们怕“祟”来害孩子，就拿出八枚铜钱同孩子玩。孩子玩累了睡着了，他们就把八枚铜钱用红纸包着放在孩子的枕头下边，夫妻俩不敢合眼。半夜里一阵阴风吹开房门，吹灭了灯火，“祟”刚伸手去摸孩子的头，枕头边就迸发道道闪光，吓得“祟”逃跑了。第二天，夫妻俩把用红纸包八枚铜钱吓退“祟”的事告诉了大家，以后大家学着做，孩子就太平无事了。

原来八枚铜钱是八仙变的，暗中来保护孩子的。因为“祟” 与“岁”谐音，之后逐渐演变为“压岁钱”。

On the thirty day of the year, my mother and father brought back a spring festival couplet in the early morning. The big red paper was written with golden words, and it was happy and auspicious. The writing is "and" home and everything "is the second line of a couplet Caiwang yewang 1000 Jiale" banner is the "good luck in everything", people are busy, couplets on the table a morning without sticking out, see this situation, I volunteered to put on the door. But I was so young that I couldnt reach the top of the gate with the couplets. My father came over to pick up the Spring Festival couplets and asked me to prepare scissors and glue to help him put on the couplets. I quickly brought the paste tool, found my father holding couplets, standing at the door: "what is the automatic speaking on the left or right?" I usually learn, using the knowledge of calligraphy, in a timely manner to the upper place of the father pointed out. Dad was happy to praise me. Position later, I took the viscose, rattled with scissors cut into small pieces, help daddy smoothly on the lower, and posted hengpi. My father and I stood outside the gate, watching our masterpiece, the red antithetical couplet reflect on our face, neighbors firecrackers as one falls, another rises. Its the Spring Festival! How happy we are in the whole family! I wish mom and dad happy new year, good health, work smoothly! As Hengpi antithetical couplet said, I wish my family good luck in everything!

在新年前夕,我们班有一个聚会。气氛很好。这是普通的从一开始。男孩从一间卧室给了学生一个不寻常的性能。我们看到一个男孩名叫李新民关掉所有的灯突然折断。然后有三个响亮的(响亮的)乌鸦旋塞呼应的大厅,大厅里又突然灯火通明。
