春节，中国人最重要的节日。是中国最盛大、最热闹、最重要的一个古老传统节日，也是中国人所独有的节日。

节，是农历的岁首，春节的另一名称叫过年，是中国最盛大、最热闹、最重要的一个古老传统节日，也是中国人所独有的节日。是中华文明最集中的表现。自西汉以来，春节的习俗一直延续到今天。春节一般指除夕和正月初一。但在民间，传统意义上的春节是指从腊月初八的腊祭或腊月二十三或二十四的祭灶，一直到正月十五，其中以除夕和正月初一为高潮。如何过庆贺这个节日，在千百年的历史发展中，形成了一些较为固定的风俗习惯，有许多还相传至今。在春节这一传统节日期间，我国的汉族和大多数少数民族都有要举行各种庆祝活动，这些活动大多以祭祀神佛、祭奠祖先、除旧布新、迎禧接福、祈求丰年为主要内容。活动形式丰富多彩，带有浓郁的民族特色。2006年5月20日，“春节”民俗经国务院批准列入第一批国家级非物质文化遗产名录。

春节的来历有一种传说，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。有一年除夕，从村外来了个乞讨的老人。乡亲们一片匆忙恐慌景象，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。”老婆婆仍然继续劝说，乞讨老人笑而不语。 半夜时分，“年”兽闯进村。它发现村里气氛与往年不同：村东头老婆婆家，门贴大红纸，屋内烛火通明。“年”兽浑身一抖，怪叫了一声。将近门口时，院内突然传来“砰砰啪啪”的炸响声，“年”浑身战栗，再不敢往前凑了。原来，“年”最怕红色、火光和炸响。这时，婆婆的家门大开，只见院内一位身披红袍的老人在哈哈大笑。“年”大惊失色，狼狈逃蹿了。第二天是正月初一，避难回来的人们见村里安然无恙十分惊奇。这时，老婆婆才恍然大悟，赶忙向乡亲们述说了乞讨老人的许诺。这件事很快在周围村里传开了，人们都知道了驱赶“年”兽的办法。(客家人的传说)从此每年除夕，家家贴红对联、燃放爆竹;户户烛火通明、守更待岁。初一一大早，还要走亲串友道喜问好。这风俗越传越广，成了中国民间最隆重的传统节日。

Was a "chip, marble" firecrackers, fireworks filled the air. The annual Spring Festival again come, early in the morning, my mother is busy in the kitchen, I decided to go around the streets.

Ah! Each of the streets, there are so many colorful figure shook, flow like water, no head, before after see the tail.

Under the soft light, all kinds of exquisite candy and assistant cordial smile, makes people pleasing, the customers are holding the bags in the crowded out of the supermarket, a smile on each face, bleeding heart honey.

Every family cleaned the house and yard, with the Spring Festival couplets and New Year pictures, even a single dormitory, everywhere look brand-new.

Ah! On New Years eve finally came, the county everywhere colour pomp, in some places across the hung with colored lights series, some place to put the colorful fireworks, and local groups of wearing beautiful happy children at play.

You see, in the crowded people mountain people sea, a huge dragon winding, roaring stretch run up and down.

When the above the bell sound through the twelve, firecrackers exploded on the streets. "Double bang firecracker" up, "ZuanTianHou" roared into the sky. The stars shone in the night, festival of fireworks colourful, the ground laughter, the joy of the people. Like Fried bean firecrackers ring after, people rushed to the street happy New Year to each other, "I wish you a long life." "I wish you a happy Spring Festival!" These words as peoples laughter, as from time to time off firecrackers to fly out of the streets, floating in a festival in the night sky.........

一阵“噼哩啪啦”的鞭炮声传来，空气中弥漫着烟火的气息。一年一度的春节又来到了，一大早，妈妈就在灶间忙个不停，我决定去街上转转。

啊!每条大街小巷，都有那么多五颜六色的身影在晃动，像河水一样流淌，前不见头，后不见尾。

在柔和的灯光下，各色精美的糖果和售货员亲切的笑容融为一体，使人赏心悦目，顾客们抱着大包小包拥挤着走出超市，个个脸上挂着笑容，心里淌着蜜。

家家户户都清扫了房屋和庭院，都贴上了春联、年画，连单身宿舍里也是如此，到处焕然一新。

啊!除夕之夜终于来临了，全县各处都张灯接彩，有的地方横着竖着挂着五色的灯串，有的地方放着五光十色的烟花，还有的地方一群群穿着漂亮快乐的孩子在尽情地玩耍。

你看，在那人头攒动的人山人海中，一条巨龙蜿蜒着，上下翻飞伸展腾挪。

当悠悠的钟声响过十二下，大街小巷上鞭炮齐鸣。“二踢脚”腾空而起，“钻天猴”呼啸着窜入天空。夜空星光闪耀，节日的礼花五彩缤纷，地上欢声笑语，欢乐的人们三五成群。如炒豆般的鞭炮响过以后，人们涌到街头互相拜年，“祝您长寿!”“祝您春节愉快!”这些话语随着人们的欢声笑语，随着不时响起的鞭炮声飞出了大街小巷，飘荡在节日的夜空中………

Little as my effort is, I tried my best to help the people around us. Once the YVP organized us to sell secondhand books and raise the money to help the people indeed.

In addition, I quite enjoy the travels and the bees. Travels let me experience the sunshine, fresh air as well as the special taste of the local customs and practices. While the bees keep the friendship shining, and friends are as if family members. Both of them lit up my life.

All in all, the college life is a journey, and I have long way to go; all the memory is the most precious treasure, and I will value every moment.

Dear Kim:

I feel so happy to hear that you are interested in the Chinese spring festival, which is one most important symbol of Chinese culture. With my great honor, I am here sharing my knowledge about it with you.

The spring festival, also called Chinese New Year, enjoys a long history of over 4,000 years. Unlike other festivals, the Spring festival is a period of time, rather than a single day. It starts from the first day of a new year and ends on January 15th, , of course in the Chinese lunar calendar. But people usually start to celebrate the Spring Festival on the day before the New Years Day, which is called "New Years Eve", when all members of a family get together, have a big meal together(called Nian Ye Fan in Chinese) and watch the Spring Festival gala, indulged in the especially warm and sweet atmosphere of reunion.

There are a variety of activities during the Spring festival, among which at least three deserve your special attention. First, when the new years first bell rings out the old year and rings in the new, adults and children get out of the houses and light crackers and fireworks, which decorates the sky into a colorful and magnificent stage.

Then, on the morning of the New Years Day, people get up very early to stick couplets, on which all good wished are presented. Meanwhile, the red color of the couplets adds much to the joy of the splendid festival.

In addition, we have to visit our relatives from door to door as of the first day of the Spring Festival until the Lantern Festival, which is supposed to be a conclusion of the whole Spring Festival.

Kim, the short letter here surely fails me to give you a complete account of our Spring Festival. I sincerely hope, if possible, that you can come here in China to have a real experience about it.

Best wishes!

Yours,

Li Hua

春节，也叫作中国新年，有着超过4000多年的历史。与其他的节日不同，春节是一个时间段，而不是指单独某一天。它是从一月的第一天一直到十五日，当然是按照中国的农历。但是人们通常都从大年初一前一天就开始庆祝春节，这一天也叫除夕，一大家人会团聚起来，吃个大餐(我们中国人管它叫年夜饭)，看春晚，沉浸在家人团聚的特殊温馨的氛围之中。

春节里有很多的活动，其中至少有三样事情值得你关注。首先，当新年的第一次钟声响起，一个辞旧迎新的时刻到来了，大人和小孩都会到室外去放鞭炮，放烟花，把整个天空装扮成了一个五彩缤纷的大舞台。

然后，在大年初一的早上，人们都很早起来贴春联。春联上写满了吉祥的话语。同时，春联的红色也为这个绚丽的节日增添了不少的欢乐。

还有，从年初一开始我们都要挨家挨户去拜访亲戚，一直到元宵节。元宵节的到来就意味着春节的结束。

金，短短的信件中我没法向你很详尽地描述好我们的春节。如果可能的话，我真心希望你能来中国好好的体验一下。

致敬

Its a new year! Its a new year! All families were in a happy atmosphere of holiday. I have a good time in the Spring Festival because we are playing firecrackers together!

A black day, people pick up firecrackers, lit a piece of incense, a little, people ran down the back, over his ears, "Ping pong......" My soul went to the winds, the people are sick, I also put together and the others burst with joy, excitement, "Ping pong......" The sound of the night, every household all night lights! In a moment, all the firecrackers were finished. To take a box of fireworks, dont look at such a small box of fireworks, its power can be strong, the first sound scared me terrified, I said: "this automatic speaking small fireworks so great power!" The sound of the fireworks is all the same, and the shape is not really pleasing. I put out a stick like a cigarette, "creak and squeak." A small yellow thing flew out, "Wow, its beautiful!" Its the fireworks of the immortals. (I) of the fireworks to sit up and take notice, it greatly. I put it one after another, all kinds of fireworks and colorful flowers, this kind of fireworks dad bought the most, really think about it!

This Spring Festival, I have a happy life, fireworks and I become a good friend, I still regard the fireworks as my brother!

Spring Festival, a happy holiday, a favorite festival. That day, I had a new year, and put the fireworks, firecrackers. Im so happy. I really wish it was spring festival every day. Wow, it is not every day you eat it. I like the Spring Festival too much. The Spring Festival is coming soon, I will warm up to welcome this beautiful festival!

The Spring Festival is very important to Chinese people. In the past，people

could not often have meat，rice or other delicious food. They could only eat

these during the Spring festival. So every year they hoped that the Spring

Festival would come soon. Now， although people‘s life is much better，and we can

eat the delicious foods everyday. People still like the festival. Because most

people can have a long holiday，and we are free to go on a trip or visit our

friends or have parties with our family. In the evenings，we can have a big meal

in the restaurant or stay at home with family and watch the TV programs.

Today is the beginning of first, I told my cousin went to the big red flag in the town of Villa Zhuo watched a wonderful "Spring Festival acrobatics extravaganza." After we came to find a place performing acrobatics, find a place to sit, then waited patiently show began.

The first program, the small monkey riding old goat rope walk. I saw the old goat monkey carrying a small step by step down the rope, hey, before. Really amazing ah! The next program more exciting! For example: a tightrope, tigers jump through hoops, lions and tigers slide across the beautiful swing, bears do sports, air swing ...... and so this "Spring Festival acrobatic extravaganza," the protagonist is mainly animals.

This "Spring Festival acrobatics show" really meaningful ah!

家乡的春节过春节的时候，家家户户都会放鞭炮，真是震耳欲聋、惊天动地。特别是除夕夜，鞭炮声就更响了。

家家户户的人都去亲戚家去拜年，吃年夜饭，到了亲戚家。小孩子都会拿起自己的鞭炮，放个够。大人们争着要打牌，赢大钱。

吃饭了，大家都吃自己喜欢吃的菜。大人们喝酒，小孩子喝牛奶和饮料。吃完饭，小孩子们可开心了，因为要发红包了!要走了，大家都不想走了呢!

迎龙灯可好玩了，长长的龙灯像一条五颜六色的彩带。而且，每迎到一户人家门前，就摆着许多水果和鞭炮。开始放鞭炮啦!噼噼啪啪，噼噼啪啪!鞭炮声真响啊!差点震聋了耳朵。特别是烟花，五彩缤纷，美丽极了。迎到了大马路上，拉灯可起劲了，一会儿前，一会儿后，一会儿左，一会儿右，可好玩了。

每到过年，我们村都会演戏，演得可好了，看的人有男女老少，还是老人最多。这就是我们过的春节。
