关于元宵节作文英语（合集20篇）

probably more food is consumed during the new year celebrations than any other time of the year. vast amounts of traditional food is prepared for family and friends, as well as those close to us who have died.

on new years day, the chinese family will eat a vegetarian dish called jai. although the various ingredients in jai are root vegetables or fibrous vegetables, many people attribute various superstitious aspects to them.

other foods include a whole fish, to represent togetherness and abundance, and a chicken for prosperity. the chicken must be presented with a head, tail and feet to symbolize completeness. noodles should be uncut, as they represent long life.

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.

in the north, steamed-wheat bread (man tou) and small meat dumplings were the preferred food. the tremendous amount of food prepared at this time was meant to symbolize abundance and wealth for the household.

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.

There was a sea of people, and the lanterns were gathered together like a meeting. Its hilarious. The lantern dazzled me. The lamp has big, small, color is different, the shape is strange. The most interesting thing is the golden pig lamp. Let me introduce you!

The golden pig lamp was made of several pieces of wire, and the body was made of a few golden sponges. A few smiles on her face. Really cute! It looks like running. The pig tail of the golden pig had a note on it, which said: happy Lantern Festival.

After watching the eye-catching golden pig lamp, go to the green light!

Two hands came out from below, beside the woods and meadows. There is also an o line "stream", "brook" water is really "clear see low" ah. You can think of it as a mirror! There are two bamboo rafts in the "stream" of the word "stream". I think they must be looking at the scenery! How is it? Its beautiful!

On the night of the Lantern Festival, the streets are full of people, the lights are bright, there are so many lanterns in the streets! The rabbit lamp on the ground run, the butterfly lamp fly... The most funny is fish lamp, I saw a carp tail swinging, Zhang Kaiyu ridge, whole body scales glittering, kept swinging the tail of the fish, the children cant help Shouting: "fish lives!"

There are many people in the street who are watching the lights, and some are dragging cute rabbit lights, which seem to be a real rabbit. With long ears and white fur...

The song, the laughter become a piece, the night sky, happy people ushered in another Lantern Festival.

From the ground, looked at it a little bit of rose in the sky, seem to want to hurry up arms into the sky. "I want to buy a kongmin light." I thought to myself, and for my mothers opinion, she agreed. So I went to buy a lamp.

正月十五，正是元宵佳节。天上那闪烁的孔明灯。美丽的烟花，地上那欢乐的儿童，满怀笑脸的大人们，都让人萌生一种节日的喜庆气氛……

大街上人山人海，传来一阵阵甜甜的笑声，我看到漆黑的天空，有着闪烁的会飘动的“星星”，原来是那是人们放的孔明灯。望着它，从地上一点点的升上天空，好像很想快点的投入到天空中的怀抱里。“真想买个孔明灯哟。”我心里想，并争取妈妈的意见，妈妈同意了。於是我去买了一盏。

到了天台，我急忙把孔明灯展开。有一个说法：“在孔明灯上写上自己的愿望，会美梦成真的。”我赶紧拿起笔甜甜美美的写上了自己的愿望，找来了哥哥，帮我点上蜡烛，刚刚点亮就飘上去了。放之前还是大的，可到了天空中却一点点变小了。

孔明灯飞走了，寄托着我的愿望，渐渐的消失在天空中……

元宵佳节可真好啊!大街上，小巷里大家聊着，可真是热热闹闹的。真想下一个元宵佳节快快来到，那该有多好啊!

路上有些人在放烟花，我们看了一会儿。所以迟到了，但烟花不会等我们的。我们到时烟花已经开始燃放了。我们挑了一个好地方，开始看。烟花是从文化宫上放的。这些美丽的烟花把黑夜照得如同白昼，彩色的火球飞腾着，连续不断，交映在天空的烟花中绽放。这此烟花简直像在春天里互相争芳斗艳的鲜花一样，令人赏心悦目。夜空的滴滴金雨与地上开放的朵朵银花汇成了一片欢乐的海洋。有的四射的烟火，组成孔雀开屏的样子。有的烟花是圆的，密布在天孔中，像星星还眨呀眨的。

元宵节上不仅是灯的世界，也是人的海洋。无数灯与人聚在一起，构成了景色奇异的灯和人潮。这些灯别具一格、珠光宝气、晶莹发亮。我看到了有个灯展画面是一个老奶奶和壮牛组成，牛跳舞时左摇摇右摆摆，耳朵上下摆动很牛。而老奶奶舞姿生风比牛更牛。就这样，我们在灯海中尽情欣赏。

元宵节很想去看花灯，可是回家后发现爸妈的工作都没完成。

妈妈让我先写好作业，大部分作业在学校里就完成了，剩下的我一会儿就做好了。

可是爸妈还是没做完。为了等他们，我又看了一会儿书。

好不容易，爸妈的工作都做好了。妈妈说没来得及做饭，还是出去吃吧，等晚上回来在家里煮汤圆就是了。

可是我都饿了，去哪里吃饭呢?妈妈问我。后来我们又去了味千拉面。

虽然是团圆的日子，餐馆里的人也不少，点了餐还要等。我和妈妈先去旁边的书店转转。书店里没有人，我有点累，就坐在地上看了，妈妈说只要不到处爬就可以。

吃了饭，我们就往世纪广场走，但是很遗憾，那里没有花灯。爸爸说现在去豫园太晚了，我们只好往江边开，爸爸又开始在科技馆附近的路上辨不出方向了。我真有点儿累了，躺在妈妈的腿上，迷迷糊糊地睡着了。

过了好久好久，车停了，发动机的声音也没有了，妈妈叫我，我还以为到江边了呢，结果是已经回到家了。妈妈说，到江边的时候看我睡得那么好，不忍心叫醒我，就掉头开回来了。

连正大门口的灯都没有看到，我不高兴了好一阵子……后来大家吃了汤圆，节就这么过了。

希望明年的元宵节能去看花灯啊!

今天是一年一度的元宵节。一说起元宵节大家一定会说起看花灯。这花灯可真是应有尽有，有孔雀灯、大红橘灯、走马灯、天女散花、嫦娥奔月......

元宵节这天，我们一家人在市民广场上!逛着，心里不由得想：这是在遨游天空，还是在梦游仙境?我真不敢相信这是元宵之夜的街市游逛。我在来来往往的人流中穿来挤去，来到最热闹的地方，我站在一个比较高的石台上放眼四望，看见了那典雅的孔雀灯，象征着吉庆的大红橘灯，镶有玻璃镜的走马灯，还有精巧的“天女散花”、“嫦娥奔月”、“武夷风光”......一切都在灯火中放射这绚丽光彩，真让人目不暇接，眼花缭乱。

可是只有灯火实在太单调了!不过，市民广场给人们准备了许多表演，有：舞龙、太极拳，等等。尤其是舞龙最好看。一个生机勃勃的龙头被老爷爷耍得活灵活现。有时候，老爷爷们还把龙头转了几圈。只见出来的是两条巨大的龙，一条是黄色的，另一条是蓝色的，非常漂亮。两条龙在空中吞云吐雾、上下翻腾，不时摆出一个个精彩的造型，引来观众一阵阵热烈的掌声。后来又出来一条金色的龙，它披着金色的外衣，在月亮地照耀下金光闪闪，显得十分壮观。

月亮渐渐西落我依依不舍地离开。但观灯的人还是络绎不绝，各种彩色的灯像天上的繁星一样，大放光彩。真是“一夜花灯醉，只缘春意浓。”

The annual Lantern Festival finally arrived, on this day, every family hangs red lanterns and set off firecrackers before they can eat, of course, dinner is different also, want to eat yuanxiao.

一年一度的元宵节终于到了，每到这一天家家户户门前都挂着红灯笼，而且吃饭之前还要放鞭炮，当然，晚饭也和以前不一样，要吃元宵。

大约五六点了，“怎没还不开饭呀。”在一旁的我说道。这时，爸爸说到楼下放鞭炮去，我便去看一看。爸爸把鞭炮挂到树枝上，拿起了打火机。“噼里啪啦”，鞭炮声响了起来。“开饭了，开饭了。”妈妈喊道。我端起了一碗元宵，品尝了一个，那种香喷喷的气味让我回味无穷。吃完元宵后，我便来到了厉山公园去看烟花，来到现场，还没有开始，我们又等了一会儿，烟花终于开始放了，因为离得太远了，看不清楚，我也挤进了人群之中，忽然，一位小孩子说了一个字，看。我仰起头来，只见天空中有很多一闪一闪的星星，噢，不对，星星哪有那么多颜色，这是烟花，大约五六秒过去了，颗颗流星般的烟花落了下来。哇，真是太逼真了。再看看大街上，真是好不热闹，车水马龙。

十点了，我也该回家了，但看着耀眼的烟花，还是不忍心走，又过去了五六分钟，我才依依不舍得离开了厉山公园。

今天是我国的传统节日——元宵节。这一天，人们要吃汤圆、放烟花。

以往对元宵节，我们都是吃超市里买的速冻汤圆。可是，今年却截然不同，妈妈为了增加节日气氛，决定要自己做汤圆。我听了心里别提有多兴奋了。

我们先把糯米粉用开水调成皮，爸爸叫我水不要太多，多了会过稀;也不要太少，少了会粘不住。然后取一块皮在手掌中搓成圆形，再用手指在上面按一个窝，把馅放在里面包好，放馅时一定不能太贪心，否则会把皮给撑破的。包好汤圆后，终于可以下锅了。没过多久，汤圆熟了，只见一个个雪白的汤圆漂浮在水中，好像一粒粒大珍珠，看得我直流口水，迫不及待地咬了一口。啊!真好吃，那么香甜，那么可口。小小的汤圆包含了我们全家人的美好祝愿。

吃完汤圆，我们便开始放烟花。爸爸放了一个大的。只见几颗明亮的火星一颗接一颗冲上灰暗的天空，刹那间，火星炸开了，变成一朵朵五光十色的花蕊。整个天空变成一个美丽的大花园，真是火树金花闹元宵呀!

最后，我们全家津津有味地看元宵晚会，其乐融融的。

Tangyuan is made from glutinous rice flour. You can prepare glutinous rice flour in a bowl and slowly add hot water until they mix into dough. Then you can pinch off the dough and roll them into small balls.

汤圆是由糯米粉做成的。首先在碗内准备一些糯米粉，然后慢慢地加入热水，直到二者混为一个面团。将面团搓成长条并掰成一段一段，将每段揉搓成一个小圆球。

Then you can fill tangyuan with either sweet or savoury fillings. Sweet fillings are often made from peanut butter, black sesame seeds or red beans. But some people prefer the savoury fillings made from meat, mushroom and green vegetables.

然后就可在圆球内加入甜的或咸的馅料。甜的馅料通常由花生酱、黑芝麻或红豆制成。但也有人喜欢由肉、香菇和青菜做成的咸味馅料。

Then try to enwrap all the fillings into glutinous rice dough.

然后将所有的馅料包进一个个面团里。

You can make different forms for different fillings.

你可以针对不同的馅料包成不同的形状以便于区分。

Ready? Then you can drop these balls into boiling water and cook them for about 8 minutes until they float. Okay, Just enjoy them!

准备好了吗?那么将这些小圆球倒进开水里面吧，煮八分钟后，汤圆浮在锅里就熟了。然后，好好享受吧!

元宵灯节，是中国传统的节日之一，也是孩童们最喜欢的节日之一。

仍记得小时候的烟花多种多样，有钻天坠，有小蜜蜂，有满天星，有……每到十五，漆黑的夜晚总是亮如白昼，被各色的烟花装点着，照映着。最近几年国家提倡文明春节，提倡人们少放鞭炮，少放烟花，所以现在春节、元宵的热闹程度大不如以前，然而即使如此，元宵灯节时仍是一片热闹场面。

过了十好几年的元宵节，放了十好几年的烟花，然而只有今年最让我记忆深刻。

以前元宵节是在自己家中度过，唯有晚饭后方才被允许跑到大街上与小伙伴们一起。然而今年却是在舅舅家度过。而正因为如此，今年的元宵节才让我如此难忘。

嫂子前年九月份刚添了个小孩儿，今年已一岁半了，正是无忧无虑，活泼好动的时候，所以场面格外的热闹。我们先是吃了一顿丰盛的晚餐，然后欣赏了美丽的烟花并放飞了孔明灯，接下来就是观看我一岁半的小侄子的表演。

他也很会和我们这些‘观众’互动，偶尔拉上我十三岁的弟弟和他一起跳舞，或是跑到我们身边给我们来个飞吻，当我们要去抱他时却又迅速跑开了。

房间内的笑声不断，窗外的烟花也绚烂夺目。房内的笑声穿过窗户，越过正盛开的烟花，向着远方飞去……

the 15th day of the 1st lunar month is the chinese lantern festival because the first lunar month is called yuan-month and in the ancient times people called night xiao. the 15th day is the first night to see a full moon. so the day is also called yuan xiao festival in china.

介绍元宵节风俗的英语作文

The Lantern Festival falls on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month, usually in February or March in the Gregorian calendar. As early as the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 25), it had become a festival with great significance.

This days important activity is watching lanterns. Throughout the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220), Buddhism flourished in China. One emperor heard that Buddhist monks would watch sarira, or remains from the cremation of Buddhas body, and light lanterns to worship Buddha on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month, so he ordered to light lanterns in the imperial palace and temples to show respect to Buddha on this day. Later, the Buddhist rite developed into a grand festival among common people and its influence expanded from the Central Plains to the whole of China.

Till today, the lantern festival is still held each year around the country. Lanterns of various shapes and sizes are hung in the streets, attracting countless visitors. Children will hold self-made or bought lanterns to stroll with on the streets, extremely excited. "Guessing lantern riddles"is an essential part of the Festival.

Lantern owners write riddles on a piece of paper and post them on the lanterns. If visitors have solutions to the riddles, they can pull the paper out and go to the lantern owners to check their answer. If they are right, they will get a little gift. The activity emerged during peoples enjoyment of lanterns in the Song Dynasty (960-1279). As riddle guessing is interesting and full of wisdom, it has become popular among all social strata.

People will eat yuanxiao, or rice dumplings, on this day, so it is also called the "Yuanxiao Festival."Yuanxiao also has another name, tangyuan. It is small dumpling balls made of glutinous rice flour with rose petals, sesame, bean paste, jujube paste, walnut meat, dried fruit, sugar and edible oil as filling. Tangyuan can be boiled, fried or steamed. It tastes sweet and delicious. What’s more, tangyuan in Chinese has a similar

pronunciation with "tuanyuan”, meaning reunion. So people eat them to denote union, harmony and happiness for the family.

In the daytime of the Festival, performances such as a dragon lantern dance, a lion dance, a land boat dance, a yangge dance, walking on stilts and beating drums while dancing will be staged. On the night, except for magnificent lanterns, fireworks form a

beautiful scene. Most families spare some fireworks from the Spring Festival and let them off in the Lantern Festival. Some local governments will even organize a fireworks party. On the night when the first full moon enters the New Year, people become really intoxicated by the imposing fireworks and bright moon in the sky.

元宵节英文介绍译文:

元宵节

每年农历的正月十五日，春节刚过，迎来的就是中国的传统节日--元宵节。

元宵主要的活动就是看灯。东汉明帝时期，明帝提倡佛教，听说佛教有正月十五日僧人观佛舍利，点灯敬佛的做法，就命令这一天夜晚在皇宫和寺庙里点灯敬佛，令士族庶民都挂灯。以后这种佛教礼仪节日逐渐形成民间盛大的节日。该节经历了由宫廷到民间，由中原到全国的发展过程。

直到今天，元宵点灯的习俗仍然在中国的各地流传的，各式各样美丽的花灯在这一天都会点亮，孩子们提着自制的灯笼走街串巷，非常高兴。

猜灯谜也是元宵节的一项重要活动，花灯的主人会将谜面写在灯笼上，挂在门口，如果有人可以猜中，就能得到小小的礼物。这项活动最早起源于宋朝，因为谜语能启迪智慧又饶有兴趣，所以流传过程中深受社会各阶层的欢迎。

民间过元宵节吃元宵的习俗。元宵由糯米制成，或实心，或带馅。馅有豆沙、白糖、山楂、各类果料等，食用时煮、煎、蒸、炸皆可。起初，人们把这种食物叫“浮圆子”，后来又叫“汤团”或“汤圆”，这些名称“团圆”字音相近，取团圆之意，象征全家人团团圆圆，和睦幸福，人们也以此怀念离别的亲人,寄托了对未来生活的美好愿望。

随着时间的推移，元宵节的活动越来越多，白天有耍龙灯、耍狮子、踩高跷、划旱船扭秧歌、打太平鼓等传统民俗表演。到了夜晚，除了五颜六色的美花灯之外，还有艳丽多姿的烟火。大多数家庭会在春节时留下一些烟花等到元宵节这天燃放，而一些地方政府也会举办烟花大会，当新年的第一个月圆之夜在盛大的烟火表演中来临时，人们都陶醉在这令人难忘了烟花与皎洁的明月中。
