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。 正月是农历的元月，古人称夜为“宵”，所以称正月十五为元宵节。正月十五日是一年中第一个月圆之夜，也是一元复始，大地回春的夜晚，人们对此加以庆祝，也是庆贺新春的延续。元宵节又称为“上元节”。

The Festival of Lanterns takes place at the end of the Chinese New Year Celebration, on the fifteenth day of the first moon. Lanterns have been part of Chinese life for centuries so its not surprising to see a festival of lanterns.

People usually hang lanterns in the gardens, outside the houses, and on the boats. These lanterns are signposts to guide guests and spirits of ancestors to the Lunar celebration. After a sumptuous fifteen-day feast, these lanterns light the way for the spirits back to the world beyond.

Silk, paper and plastic lanterns vary in shape and size and are usually multi-colored. Some are in the shapes of butterflies, birds, flowers, and boats. Other are shaped like dragon, fruit and animal symbols of that year. The most popular type of lantern is the horse-racing one, in which figures or animals rotate around the vertical axis of the lantern.

The special food for the Lantern Festival is Yuen Sin or Tong Yuen. These are round dumplings made with sticky rice flour. They can be filled and served as a sweet snack or made plain and cooked in a soup with vegetables, meat and dried shrimp. The round shape of the dumpling is a symbol of wholeness, completeness and unity.

The Lantern Festival is an occasion for families to get together and for everyone--young, old, rich and poor to have fun.

It was the Lantern Festival, and my parents took me to the Confucius temple to see the Lantern Festival. Along the way, it was drizzling. One to the Confucius temple, the eyes are all lights, as if into the light of the sea. The lotus lantern on the left, the advertising lamp on the right, looks like two soaring dragons.

After that, my parents took me to the lantern market to buy lanterns. What a lot of lanterns! There are rabbit lights, pigeon lights, and dog lights... I looked back and forth several times. It was dazzling. I was dazzled, didnt know which to buy? Finally, I bought an antique candle lamp.

Then mom and dad took me to the pedal boat. Because of the festival, so many people, lined up a long team. We chose a goose boat, my father and mother pedaled, and I held the rudder. We had a happy Lantern Festival.

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.

According to the Chinese tradition, at the very beginning of a new year,

when there is a bright full moon hanging in the sky, there should be thousands

of colorful lanterns hung out for people to appreciate.

At this time, people will try to solve the puzzles on the lanterns and eat

yuanxiao and get all their families united in the joyful atmosphere.

农历的第15天是中国的元宵节，因为农历的第一个月叫做元月，在古代人们叫“夜晓”。第15天是第一个看到满月的夜晚。所以这一天也被称为中国的“元宵节”。

在这个时候，人们会努力解决灯笼上的谜题，吃元宵，让他们的家人在欢乐的气氛中团结起来。

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……

“正月十五闹元宵”，每年春节过后的农历正月十五是我国的元宵节，又叫“灯节”和“上元节”，是中国自古以来就在民间流传的另一个已有2000多年历史的传统佳节。

元宵节起源于西汉王朝。相传汉惠帝死后飞扬跋扈的吕后篡权，任用了大量吕氏亲信，宦官当权。吕后死后，公元前179年，汉文帝在老忠臣协助下登基，博采众议，在正月十五这天，一举扫除了诸吕残余势力。因古代“夜”与“宵”同义。正月又叫“元月”，为了纪念正月十五这一天，汉文帝就将此日定为“元宵节”。从此，经隋至唐，到唐玄宗李隆基时，为显示大唐兴盛，国泰民安，逐沿用旧俗，每到“元宵节”这天，张灯结彩，欢庆狂欢，“一曲笙歌春如海，千门灯火夜似昼”，使这一节日更加兴盛。

节日期间，灯月交辉，游人如织，正如唐代诗人张说所描绘的：“花萼楼前雨露新，长安城里太平人。龙衔火树千灯焰，鸡踏莲花万岁春”。李商隐的诗曰：“月色灯光满帝城，香车宝辇溢通衢”，描绘了当时观灯时车水马龙的宏大场面。流传到宋代，在元宵之夜悬灯欢乐的规模更加盛况空前，花灯的装饰造型也更精美，灯节带给人们更多欢乐，更多光明。诗人苏东坡有诗云：“灯光家之有，笙歌处之楼”;大词人辛弃疾也曾有著名词作：“东风夜放花千树，更吹落，星如雨。宝马雕车香满路。风箫声动，玉壶光转，一夜鱼龙舞。”这些诗词描绘了当时元宵佳节满城花灯齐放，通宵达旦，歌舞笙乐的壮观场面。到了清代，据《京都风俗志》记载：清代太平年间每年元宵节都是：“通街委巷，灯光星布珠悬，皎如白昼”，“王孙贵客、士女儿童，倾城出游，谓之逛灯”，由此可见元宵节观灯的热闹场面。

到近代，这一习俗代代流传，至今仍经久不衰。老百姓家家户户都在门前和屋内悬挂彩灯、大红灯笼，全家团圆，围坐一起，观花赏灯吃元宵，象征着“团圆美满，丰收和睦”，同时这一天还标志着是春节欢乐的最后一幕，热热闹闹过完了“元宵节”，才算是真正过完了春节。

宋代诗人欧阳修诗曰：“去年元宵时，花市灯如昼。月上柳梢头，人约黄昏后。”说明在这灯好月明人团圆的喜庆佳节里，亲朋好友相约团聚，早已是民间庆春节的重要习俗。如果在团聚时捧去一把鲜花，携带上一个花篮，让美丽娇艳的鲜花送来一个吉祥幸福的欢乐好运，会给朋友相聚增添无比欢乐的心情，这时应该选用寓意团团美美、如意祥瑞的花材，如火红的火鹤花、满枝悬挂形似红爆竹的炮仗花、鲜艳的孔雀草、象征明媚春天光明的银芽柳、闪烁洁白繁星的满天星等，都会展现出一片祥和安乐的氛围，为亲朋好友送去一年吉祥幸福的祝愿。

又是一年元夜时。阖家欢乐，秉烛欢庆。这一天我们全家都聚在一起吃元宵、赏花灯、放烟花。

吃元宵这一中国传统的习俗把这元宵节的气氛渲染的淋漓尽致。随着奶奶的一声“汤圆来了。”每个人的脸上都绽放出了笑容。把汤圆端上来，热腾腾的气氤氲在我的脸上，霎时，脸上湿漉漉的，淡淡的面香扑鼻而来，我忍不住咬了一口，香浓的芝麻味充斥我的口腔，让我通体舒畅。汤圆不仅仅是味道好，还寓意着全家人团团圆圆。香甜的口感也寓意着我们未来的生活甜甜美美。

晚饭后，我与家人一起去工人俱乐部看花灯。十二生肖，一马当先，它们有的身上背着铜钱，寓意着马上有钱;有的策马奔腾，寓意着事业顺畅;有的神龙马壮，希望人们身体健康，气宇轩昂。在马之后，有活灵活现的小老鼠，辛勤耕作的牛，威风凛凛的大老虎，娇小可爱的兔子，张牙舞爪等的龙，摇头摆尾的蛇，温顺可爱的羊，活泼顽皮的猴，昂首挺胸的大公鸡，忠诚老实的狗，憨厚可掬的猪，这一个个花灯把黑夜装点得更加美丽。

抬头一看，天空中满是绽放的烟花，各式各样，五彩纷呈，有的五颜六色合在一起，有紫色的、红色的、金色的、绿色的等等，有的像星星，有的像笑脸，有的像太阳，它们一串串，一排排飞向天空，散落大地。烟花虽然转瞬即逝，但是它的美丽却长留人间，给人们以欢乐。给人们以启迪，我爱这转瞬即逝的烟花，更爱这美丽无比的元夜。

“东方夜放花千树，更吹落，星如雨。”在中国传统节日中，我最喜欢的就是元宵节，因为它代表着团圆，代表着欢乐。虽然今年的元夜已经结束，但它在我的记忆长河中最璀璨的一页，我爱着美丽的元夜。
