有关春节文化的英语作文（汇集20篇）

所谓“百里不同风，千里不同俗。”绍兴水乡人有着自己独特的过年方式，颇有一些地方特色。虽然现如今年味儿淡了，但在真正的老绍兴人身上，依旧保持着这过年的老习俗。

一进农历腊月，老人们就忙得不可开交，各家各户都忙着晾晒年货。鸡、鸭、鱼、肉挂满走廊，像是一个小型菜市场。晾晒如此多的年货，并不是给自己的，而是给自己的左邻右舍，讨个好彩头。大人和小孩们也各管各的去挑新衣与年货了。早在腊月，家就充满了年味儿。

一进腊八，祭菩萨的日子从这儿就开始了，而腊八只能算是一场开幕式。但老人们却十分地重视。因为，在新年之际，神仙菩萨愿不愿意来保佑这家人，就要看他们在腊八那天吃什么，五谷杂粮必须样样齐全。因此，这腊八粥可大有讲究：江浙一带的粥分咸甜两种，甜粥加入茨菰、荠菜、松子仁和红枣等；如果煮的是咸粥，只需要在里面加入青草和油即可。其实，我们喝的不是粥，而是一锅大杂烩。

腊月二十三是小年，也是祭菩萨最重要的一天：祭灶王爷。在民间的传说中。灶王爷不仅仅只掌管灶火。还考察人间太平，并将人们的过失告诉天帝，因此在那一天，有一些人家会拿出极富粘性的糖来供奉灶王爷，粘住他的牙齿，使他无法向天帝述说人们的过失。这只是少数人的做法。还有一些人就显得有些隆重了。蜡烛点上；黄酒满上；鱼肉端上。一派庄严肃穆的景象。可说白了，就是在向灶王爷说好话。祭灶王爷，这也只是人们对来年生活的美好祝愿罢了。虽然这些习俗已经渐渐被人们淡忘了，但人们祈求生活幸福美满的宿愿不会变。

除夕那日是最热闹的，贴年画和他、对联，年味儿十足。年夜饭的菜必须成双成对，预示着十全十美。一家人围坐在餐桌前，却没有人动筷子。因为这吃年夜饭也有规矩与习俗：必须长辈们先动筷子，而且小孩子们不可以站起来夹菜，并且第一筷必须先是给别人夹的。这年夜菜也大有来头：八宝茶为来年八宝进门；长生果和年糕预示着老人寿比南山，才子年年高中。其最重要的还是鱼了，红烧鲫鱼、清蒸鳜鱼。不过一般要剩一些，因为年年有余（鱼）。此外，老人还故意让孩子打碎一些玩意儿。这规矩小孩子都懂，每当打碎碗时，他们总会嬉皮笑脸的说：“岁岁（碎碎）平安嘛！。”在城里，没有除夕守岁和放鞭炮，年味儿是少了，可一家人围坐在电视机前，一遍聊天，一边看晚会。其乐融融，倒也是多了一份安宁与踏实。

正月初一，早餐吃的必须是汤圆。来年团团圆圆，而在这一天一家人是不会出去的，主要是用来休息，初二至初五，才会去别人家串门，用绍兴俗话来讲就是“做人客”。直至初六，热闹的春节结束了，只有少数人还在做客。那一天，大人上班，小孩子在家中无所事事。仿佛一切生活都回到了正轨上。

虽然现如今年味儿少了，但人们对新年的美好祝愿和习俗却会代代传承下去。

导语：春节是指汉字文化圈传统上的农历新年，俗称“年节”，传统名称为新年、大年、新岁，但口头上又称度岁、庆新岁、过年。 ,春节是我国人民最为重视的节日,是名副其实的普天同庆的佳节。那么现在小编用英文来介绍一下怎么度过春节的作文。

Chinese New Year or Spring Festival is the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays。 It is sometimes called the "Lunar New Year" by English speakers。 The festival traditionally begins on the first day of the first month (Chinese: 正月; pinyin: zhēng yuè) in the Chinese calendar and ends on the 15th; this day is called Lantern Festival。 Chinese New Years Eve is known as chú xī。 It literally means "Year-pass Eve"。

Chinese New Year is the longest and most important festivity in the Lunar Calendar。 The origin of Chinese New Year is itself centuries old and gains significance because of several myths and traditions。 Ancient Chinese New Year is a reflection on how the people behaved and what they believed in the most。

Celebrated in areas with large populations of ethnic Chinese， Chinese New Year is considered a major holiday for the Chinese and has had influence on the new year celebrations of its geographic neighbors， as well as cultures with whom the Chinese have had extensive interaction。 These include Koreans (Seollal)， Tibetans and Bhutanese (Losar)， Mongolians (Tsagaan Sar)， Vietnamese (T?t)， and formerly the Japanese before 1873 (Oshogatsu)。 Outside of Mainland China， Hong Kong， Macau， and Taiwan， Chinese New Year is also celebrated in countries with significant Han Chinese populations， such as Singapore， Indonesia， Laos， Malaysia， the Philippines， and Thailand。 In countries such as Australia， Canada and the United States， although Chinese New Year is not an official holiday， many ethnic Chinese hold large celebrations and Australia Post， Canada Post， and the US Postal Service issues New Years themed stamps。

Although the Chinese calendar traditionally does not use continuously numbered years， outside China its years are often numbered from the reign of Huangdi。 But at least three different years numbered 1 are now used by various scholars， making the year 2009 "Chinese Year" 4707， 4706， or 4646。

Today,lots of people are affected by western culture especially the new generation who born after 1990s.In my opinion,some of western culture is good but some of them are not suited.Learning western culture can let us know about what is the western custom and what differnets between chinese and western.because of comparison we can learn the positive sides such as more confident,independent.On the other side,the negative sides we should not learn.for example,some high school student even younger fall in love with others.They spend much time to do it and forget what more important things they really need to do in that moment.Indeed,every coins have two sides.how to do deal with it,I think let time make the answer.

The Culture of China is home to one of the worlds oldest and most complex

civilizations. China boasts a history rich in over 5,000 years of artistic,

philosophical, political, and scientific advancement. Though regional

differences provide a sense of diversity, commonalities in language and religion

connect a culture distinguished by such significant contributions such as

Confucianism and Taoism. Confucianism was the official philosophy throughout

most of Imperial Chinas history and strongly influenced other countries in East

Asia. Mastery of Confucian texts provided the primary criterion for entry into

the imperial bureaucracy.

With the rise of Western economic and military power beginning in the

mid-19th century, Western systems of social and political organization gained

adherents in China. Some of these would-be reformers rejected Chinas cultural

legacy, while others sought to combine the strengths of Chinese and Western

cultures.

China is a unified nation consisting of many different ethnic groups.

Fifty-six different ethnic groups make up the great Chinese national family.

Because the Han people accounts for more than ninety percent of Chinas

population, the remaining fifty-five groups are generally referred to as "ethnic

minorities." Next to the majority Han, the Mongolian, Hui, Tibetan, and Uygur

peoples comprise the largest ethnic groups. Although Chinas ethnic minorities

do not account for a large portion of the population, they are distributed over

a vast area, residing in every corner of China.

Particularly since the implementation of Chinas opening and reform policy,

the central government has increased investment in minority areas and

accelerated their opening to the outside world. This has resulted in an upsurge

of economic development in these areas. Each of Chinas ethnic minority groups

possesses a distinctive culture. The Chinese government respects minority

customs, and works to preserve, study, and collate the cultural artifacts of

Chinas ethnic minority groups. The government vigorously supports the

development of minority culture and the training of minority cultural workers,

and fosters the development of traditional minority medicine.

The relation among Chinas ethnic groups can be described as "overall

integration, local concentration, mutual interaction." Concentrations of ethnic

minorities reside within predominantly Han areas, and the Han people also reside

in minority areas, indicating that there has been extensive exchanges among

Chinas ethnic groups since ancient times. With the development of the market

economy, interaction among ethnic groups has become even more active in the

areas of government, economics, culture, daily life, and marriage. Linked by

interdependence, mutual assistance, and joint development, their common goals

and interests creating a deep sense of solidarity, Chinas ethnic groups

resemble a great national family, together building Chinese civilization.

Nowadays with the ever rapid development and increasing popularity of the information technology , shopping on the internet has been a fashion especially among the youngsters.

Online shopping has made our daily life more convenient and comfortable. For example , shopping on the internet can save students a great deal of time on the way between home and store, so they would be able to concentrate more time and energy on their academic work.

On the losing of Traditional Culture

It is widely noted that lots of traditional culture is disappearing along with the development of technology. Many ancient architectures and traditional ways of living have been deserted. It seems that the traditional culture and craftsmanship will be replaced in this modern era.

The following reasons can account for the above phenomenon. Firstly, traditional technologies are always considered ineffective while the new sciences are always highly efficient, because modern science and technology facilitate both our daily and academic life a lot, with which we can save much money and time. Secondly, it is costly to protect the traditional culture, especially the maintenance and repair of the historical buildings.

In my opinion, although traditional culture is an ancient heritage, it couldnt keep pace with the development of society. It is the tide of history that the traditional culture and technology will no doubt be eliminated in the end.

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：春节正月习俗的英文介绍

The Chinese New Year celebrations are marked by visits to kin, relatives and friends, a practice known as "new-year visits" (Chinese: 拜年; pinyin: bài nián). New clothes are usually worn to signify a new year. The colour red is liberally used in all decorations. Red packets are given to juniors and children by the married and elders. See Symbolism below for more explanation.

On the days before the New Year celebration Chinese families give their home a thorough cleaning. There is a Cantonese saying "Wash away the dirt on ninyabaat" (年廿八，洗邋遢), but the practice is not usually restricted on ninyabaat (年廿八, the 28th day of month 12). It is believed the cleaning sweeps away the bad luck of the preceding year and makes their homes ready for good luck. Brooms and dust pans are put away on the first day so that luck cannot be swept away. Some people give their homes, doors and window-frames a new coat of red paint. homes are often decorated with paper cutouts of Chinese auspicious phrases and couplets. Purchasing new clothing, shoes, and receiving a hair-cut also symbolize a fresh start.

In many households where Buddhism or Taoism is prevalent, home altars and statues are cleaned thoroughly, and altars that were adorned with decorations from the previous year are also taken down and burned a week before the new year starts, and replaced with new decorations. Taoists (and Buddhists to a lesser extent) will also "send gods" (送神), an example would be burning a paper effigy of Zao Jun the Kitchen God, the recorder of family functions. This is done so that the Kitchen God can report to the Jade Emperor of the family households transgressions and good deeds. Families often offer sweet foods (such as candy) in order to "bribe" the deities into reporting good things about the family.

The biggest event of any Chinese New Years Eve is the dinner every family will have. A dish consisting of fish will appear on the tables of Chinese families. It is for display for the New Years Eve dinner. This meal is comparable to Christmas dinner in the West. In northern China, it is customary to make dumplings (jiaozi 饺子) after dinner and have it around midnight. Dumplings symbolize wealth because their shape is like a Chinese tael. By contrast, in the South, it is customary to make a new year cake (Niangao, 年糕) after dinner and send pieces of it as gifts to relatives and friends in the coming days of the new year. Niangao literally means increasingly prosperous year in year out. After the dinner, some families go to local temples, hours before the new year begins to pray for a prosperous new year by lighting the first incense of the year; however in modern practice, many households hold parties and even hold a countdown to the new lunar year. Beginning in the 1980s, the CCTV New Years Gala was broadcast four hours before the start of the New Year.

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：First day 初一

The first day is for the welcoming of the deities of the heavens and earth, officially beginning at midnight. Many people, especially Buddhists, abstain from meat consumption on the first day because it is believed that this will ensure longevity for them. Some consider lighting fires and using knives to be bad luck on New Years Day, so all food to be consumed is cooked the day before. For Buddhists, the first day is also the birthday of Maitreya Bodhisattva (better known as the more familiar Budai Luohan), the Buddha-to-be. People also abstain from killing animals.

Most importantly, the first day of Chinese New Year is a time when families visit the oldest and most senior members of their extended family, usually their parents, grandparents or great-grandparents.

Some families may invite a lion dance troupe as a symbolic ritual to usher in the Lunar New Year as well as to evict bad spirits from the premises. Members of the family who are married also give red packets containing cash to junior members of the family, mostly children and teenagers.

While fireworks and firecrackers are traditionally very popular, some regions have banned them due to concerns over fire hazards, which have resulted in increased number of fires around New Years and challenged municipal fire departments work capacity. For this reason, various city governments (e.g., Hong Kong, and Beijing, for a number of years) issued bans over fireworks and firecrackers in certain premises of the city. As a substitute, large-scale fireworks have been launched by governments in cities like Hong Kong to offer citizens the experience.

The second day of the Chinese New Year is for married daughters to visit their birth parents. Traditionally, daughters who have been married may not have the opportunity to visit their birth families frequently.

On the second day, the Chinese pray to their ancestors as well as to all the gods. They are extra kind to dogs and feed them well as it is believed that the second day is the birthday of all dogs.

Business people of the Cantonese dialect group will hold a Hoi Nin prayer to start their business on the 2nd day of Chinese New Year. The prayer is done to pray that they will be blessed with good luck and prosperity in their business for the year.

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：Third and fourth days 初三

The third and fourth day of the Chinese New Year are generally accepted as inappropriate days to visit relatives and friends due to the following schools of thought. People may subscribe to one or both thoughts.

1) It is known as "chì kǒu" (赤口), meaning that it is easy to get into arguments. It is suggested that the cause could be the fried food and visiting during the first two days of the New Year celebration.[citation needed]

2) Families who had an immediate kin deceased in the past 3 years will not go house-visiting as a form of respect to the dead, but people may visit them on this day.

new year party

on 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."

新年晚会

在除夕，我们班有一个聚会。气氛好。它是寻常从一开始。从一间卧室男生给一个不寻常的表现。我们看到名为李新民在突然关闭所有的灯单元一个男孩。然后用三个响亮的(响亮的)的回荡在大厅里鸡叫，大厅明亮又在瞬间点燃。

然后，卧室的朱国章代表要求我们猜测了有关上述情况的诗。他补充说，李新民单是出生在狗年，其他三个都在鸡年出生的。他们给我们留下了所有的混乱。它是我们的班长谁是quickwitted(机智的)。他喊我们，“天休息的鸡叫三在黎明倍。“大厅之后，他们还有另外一个项目。这一次李新民被放置在圆的中间。当他站在那里，其他三个人围着他站着，低头在每一个120度的角度下去见他。这是一个成语。这一次我得到了它的权利：“。狗中脱颖而出的鸡群!“

春节自古以来就是中国的传统节日，也是人们新的一年的生活的开始。在这期间里，全家老少都一起“迎新春，除旧岁”，我们家也不例外。

除夕那天，是我最开心的一天。我早早地把写好的春联准备好，就等着爷爷的胶水了。对于贴春联，我可是个行家，家里春联每年都是我贴的。而且不只是春联，还有那个大大的“福”

字。这“福”字必须要倒贴，寓意是“福”到了的意思，希望在新的一年里能福气满满。

接下来的一下午，可都是大人们的活儿啦，那就是包饺子。这个活儿看起来容易，学起来可就难多了。这不，这次我也想试试。

首先，把馅铺在面皮儿上，再把面皮儿捏起来，这样一个饺子就完成了。我照着“口诀”捏了几个饺子，造型上都挺美观的，可实际上却不怎么样。可能是没捏紧的缘故吧，我包的那几个饺子一到锅里就全露馅了，无奈的我啊，只能吃着面皮喝汤了。

其实除夕的高潮啊是在晚上。我们早早地吃完饺子便下楼放鞭炮了。胆大点儿的毛头小子就放“炮仗”，女孩子则放烟花之类的。当鞭炮声响起来时，才发觉有了浓浓的年味，这才是春节的开始。

除夕后一天就是大年初一，是晚辈给老辈拜年的时候，这一天必须说吉祥的话，寓示着这一年吉祥如意。虽然年轻人不计较什么，但是还是要给爷爷奶奶拜年。穿上新衣服，脑袋里搜罗着各种吉祥话，可无非就是那套“万事如意，身体健康”、“福如东海，寿比南山”之类的，只是老人们听着高兴，做晚辈的也跟着高兴。就这一句话，结束了大年初一，跑断了脚后跟，也磨破了嘴皮子。
