2016关于端午节放假的通知汇总2篇 作文英语(经典20篇)

The Dragon Boat Festival is one of the most popular traditional festivals

celebrated in China, which is on the fifth of the fifth lunar month, also known

as Duanwu Festival. It’s said that it is to commemorate the death of a Chinese

patriotic poet, Qu Yuan, who was snared by corrupt officials in ancient China

and finally committed suicide by drowning himself in the Miluo River to protest

against them.

The traditions and customs held on this festival differ from place to

place, but there are some common in them. First, the most famous and great

tradition is holding Dragon Boat races, which are held by fishermen’s attempt to

protect Qu Yuan’s body against attacking by fishes and other animals in the

river by beating drums and row the dragon shaped boat. Nowadays dragon boat

races have been an annual popular sport activity among people. In addition,

making and eating Zongzi—a dumpling made of glutinous rice and wrapped in bamboo

or reed leaves—is also a popular custom during this day. It can be made by many

kinds of stuffing. What’s more, hanging herbs on the front door, drinking

realgar wine and pasting up picture of Zhongkui—a mythic guardian figure in

ancient china—are also popular during the festival, which are mean to protect

people from evil and disease.

These customs and traditions have been changed a little in recent years,

but they still make contribution to the spread and inheritance of Chinese

culture.

小时候，总听妈妈给我讲屈原因为楚平王而投汨罗江，从此便有了端午节，我也似懂非懂地知道了：原来端午节是由屈原而产生的。

When I was a child, my mother told me to listen to Qu Yuan because Chuping Wang and the Miluo River, then have the Dragon Boat Festival, I also vaguely know that the Dragon Boat Festival was produced by Qu Yuan.

相传屈原是一个爱国诗人，投江后，汨罗江畔的百姓们纷纷去打捞屈原的尸体，因此有了赛龙舟的习俗;百姓们把饭团等投入江中，因此有了吃棕子的习俗，百姓们把兄雄黄酒倒入江中，因此有了喝雄黄酒的习俗。

Legend has it that Qu Yuan is a patriotic poet, Jiang River, Miluo people have to recover Qu Yuans body, so there is the custom of the dragon boat race; people have the balls and into the river, so there is the custom of eating zongzi, people are the brother of wine poured into the river, so have a drink realgar wine the custom.

记得前不久，我还了南湖边，看龙舟竞渡，那儿人山人海，一派热闹的景象，南湖边上围满了人，不用说他们就是来看龙舟竞赛的，只见不远处湖面上，停泊着大大小小的的龙舟，龙舟选手们严阵以待，不过一会儿就上了各自的龙舟，他们一个个精神抖擞，似乎真的是要打捞屈原。一眨眼的工夫，他们就开始了，随着“嘿咻嘿咻”的口号声。他们有节奏地划起龙舟，这使我不禁想象起了当时百姓们纷纷去打捞屈原时的情景……

I remember not long ago, I also see the South Lake, dragon boat races, there are huge crowds of people, a lively scene, South Lake surrounded with people, they see the dragon boat race is needless to say, not far from the lake park, large and small dragon boat, Dragon Boat athletes embattled, but soon on the boat, they all seem to be in fine fig, really want to salvage Qu Yuan. In a blink of an eye, they began, with the slogan "sex.". They have a rhythm to draw from the dragon boat, which I imagine the people at that time have to retrieve his time......

Tomorrow is dragon boat festival, I and father mother go together Woerma goes buying a zhongzi.

Arrive Woerma, I run to look for a zhongzi with respect to rapid ground. Wow! Here huge crowd of people, really lively. Well? How is that place person special much? Taking away doubt I looked in the past after all. Oh! Buy a zhongzi so, the zhongzi breed here is really too much: Of beef stuffing, of red jujube stuffing, of chop stuffing, of earthnut stuffing... my what look saliva should flow. Took a bag rapidly, say to mom: "Mom, I like to eat fresh chopped meat, I should be bought more a few. " mom nods express to agree, then I bought the zhongzi of a lot of fresh chopped meat.

Buy a zhongzi, we bought a lot of things again, have a meal in hall of Xiang Shang coffee next, had eaten a meal, we came home cheerfully, really happy today!

Look! This is the zhongzi that I buy, but delicious!

The Dragon Boat Festival is Chinas old quarter of more than two thousand years, on this day, every family hanging moxa calamus, dragon boat racing, eating zongzi, realgar wine... Dragon Boat Festival is to commemorate qu yuan not only, still have the fun of zongzi, the sweetness of eating zongzi, dragon boat racing exciting...

The day before the Dragon Boat Festival, the mother in the morning to prepare the material of package dumplings, rice dumplings of the material on the table, the mother began to teach me how to make zongzi, first put a few long leaves folded into a triangle, and then with a spoon to scoop a spoonful of put the rice in, put red beans, mung beans and pork, then he put a piece of leaf wrapped up, at last the folded rice dumplings together with seaweed, mom package dumplings is beautiful and strong. Method to make zongzi, I learned to begin package is not how good, is not here, leakage is betrayed, I went, head sweat, also the package. Mother said with a smile said to me: "dont try so hard, do what matter all want to have patience, rice dumplings, too, package slowly, dont try so hard, practice makes perfect". Listen to the mother, I would slowly package, mother kua I package dumplings is good too. Rice dumplings wrapped at last. In the evening, I eat of his own work achievement, think dumplings special fragrance special delicious, I eat rice dumplings and ask a mother: "why should the Dragon Boat Festival zongzi". Mom told me a story about qu yuan, I didnt know the source of the Dragon Boat Festival.

The Dragon Boat Festival I not only learned the package dumplings, but also to expand their extra-curricular knowledge, let me see what things have to be patient, to learn, too. The Dragon Boat Festival this year I had a full, and happy!

端午节是我国二千多年的旧节俗，每到这一天，家家户户都挂艾叶菖蒲，赛龙舟，吃粽子，洒雄黄酒......端午不仅是纪念屈原，还有包粽子的乐趣，吃粽子的甜蜜，赛龙舟的振奋......

在端午节的前一天，妈妈一早起来准备包粽子的材料，把包粽子的材料放到桌子上，妈妈就开始教我包粽子，首先把几块长长的粽叶叠成一个三角形，再用勺子一勺一勺地把米放进去，再放红豆、绿豆和猪肉，然后把一块粽叶包起来，最后用海草把叠好的粽子绑起来，妈妈包的粽子既漂亮又结实。我学着妈妈的方法去包粽子，开始包得不怎样好，不是漏出米来，就是露馅，我手忙脚乱，头也冒汗，就是包不好。妈妈笑着说对我说：“不用着急，做什么事都要有耐心，包粽子也一样，慢慢包，不要着急，熟能生巧”。听了妈妈的话，我就慢慢地包，妈妈夸我包出来的粽子也不错。粽子终于包好了。晚上，我吃着自己的劳动成果，觉得粽子特别香特别好吃，我边吃粽子边问妈妈：“端午节为什么要包粽子”。妈妈就给我讲了有关屈原的故事，我听了才知道端午节的来由。

这个端午节我不但学会了包粽子，而且也拓展了自己的课外知识，让我明白了做什么事情都要有耐心，学习也一样。今年的端午节我过得既充实，又快乐!

端午节吃粽子是为了纪念古代诗人屈原的。屈原一生写了许许多多的着名诗篇，提出过许许多多爱国政治主张，但是楚王不采纳。最后，楚国国土被侵占，屈原满怀忧愤，跳江自尽。人们为了纪念他，祭奠他，在每年的这一天，就把粽子和许多的好吃的投到江里，目的是不让鱼儿吃屈原的尸体。

Happy Dragon Boat Festival really, really interesting! I learned knowledge, growth of knowledge. Dragon Boat Festival is really good!

Our country has an ancient patriotic poet named Qu Yuan, he was e_iled by

the calumny, the inability to save the peril of the country, e_cessive anger, so

Jiang himself voted to Health martyred. It is for him not to eat the bodies of

fish and shrimp, one after another to the various pancake into the river, the

water used to feed animals, and some ship off the water at the water beast. This

has become now the Dragon Boat Festival, eating dumplings, fried cake, the

origin of the dragon-boat race.

Having said that, I think of my family have been the scene of the Dragon

Boat Festival. Grandmother pinch a different type of pancake, has florets,

small, small starfish, is really different form. hurry to go shopping Kok,

calmly took my father to buy tzu. A long row of teams, like a long queue, we

managed to buy a tzu. We can see that every household have attached great

importance to this holiday, people in this way to e_press their thoughts and

reverence Yuan.

我国古代有一位爱国诗人叫屈原，他遭谗言被放逐后，无力拯救危亡的国家，悲愤过度，于是投江自尽，以生殉国。人们为了不使鱼虾吃掉他的尸体，纷纷将捏成的各种各样的饼子投入江中，用来喂饱水中的动物，有的划着船在水上敲锣打鼓驱赶水兽。这便成为现在端午节，吃粽子、炸糕点、赛龙舟的由来。

说到这里，我又想起了我家过端午节的情景。奶奶捏了种类不同的饼子，有小花，小人，小海星，真是形态各异。妈妈急着去买菜角，爸爸不慌不忙地拉着我去买粽子。排着长长的队，好似一条长龙，我们好不容易才买到了粽子。可以看出，家家户户都很重视这个节日，人们用这种方式来表达对屈原的思念和崇敬。

The Duanwu Festival, which is also called the Dragon Boat Festival, is an

ancient Chinese traditional festival, celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth

lunar month. For thousands of years, various celebrating activities are held all

around the country. Eating zongzi and racing dragon boats are the most pertinent

ones, which are said to be in memory of Qu Yuan, a great poet. In some places,

people spread realgar wine on the children in the hope of protecting them from

the evil spirits. Many people consider May as an especially dangerous time for

diseases in a year, and therefore they hang moxa and calamus and things like

that around the doors to ward off evil and diseases and pray for good luck.

Dragon boat Festival is a Chinese traditional festival. It falls on the fifth day of May in the lunar calendar. A day before this festival, my mother and grandmother began to make zongzi. Of course, I would act as assistant. but it turned out that I was more of a hindrance than a help. When they finished, they started to cook them. This process needed a long time, because I could have them in the next day. Zongzi was very delicious. On the day of dragon boat festival, our family prepared for dinner after having breakfast. Everyone of my family will come back home for the solid diet. Chicken is indispensable on the dinner desk in Chinese traditional festival. There were many delicious foods, which made me watering. I ate lots of them. It is a wonderful festival.

端午节是中国的传统节日。是农历五月初五。我妈妈和奶奶在节日的前一天就开始包粽子了。当然，我会去打打下手。但事实证明，我是在帮倒忙。她们包完粽子之后就开始煮了。这个过程需要很长的时间，因为我要到第二天才可以吃到粽子。粽子非常好吃。在端午节这一天，我们家里吃过早饭就开始准备晚餐了。家里所有人都会回家吃这丰盛的食物。在中国传统节日的餐桌上鸡是必不可少的。还有很多好吃的、让我流口水的食物。我吃了很多。这是一个美好的节日。

A Chinese holiday is gaining worldwide popularity

Some holidays are so much fun that they catch on outside of their culture. The most obvious example is probably Christmas, which is celebrated around the world by people who arent even Christian. Similarly, in recent years, the Dragon Boat Festival has moved beyond China to become an international holiday celebrated by people who may know little about the holidays origins.

The Dragon Boat Festival is one of three major Chinese holidays, along with the Spring and Moon Festivals. Of the three, it is possibly the oldest, dating back to the Warring States Period in 227 B.C. The festival commemorates Qu Yuan, a minister in the service of the Chu Emperor. Despairing over corruption at court, Qu threw himself into a river. Townspeople jumped into their boats and tried in vain to save him. Then, hoping to distract hungry fish from his body, the people scattered rice on the water.

Over the years, the story of Qus demise transformed into the traditions of racing dragon boats and eating zongzi – a kind of rice wrapped in bamboo leaves. The races have certainly captured the imagination of people from all over the world. Every spring there are nearly 60 dragon boat races held outside of China in cities from Vancouver to Sydney, from Gdańsk, Poland to Cape Town, South Africa. Canada alone has nearly 50 dragon boat teams and Germany has nearly 30.

So what is it about the Dragon Boat Festival that appeals to foreigners? “Its an unusual sport,” says one racer from Germany. “Its not like everybodys doing it. Thats one of the reasons that theres such great team spirit in a dragon boat team – everybody feels like were doing something special.” And what about the zongzi? “Ehhh, theyre not bad, I guess,” he says. “Something of an acquired taste. I just havent really acquired it yet.”

The Dragon Boat Festival, must not not include dumplings! Today, my sister is teaching me the dumplings! You see.

Make zongzi must be prepared. My sister was ready to soak for three hours of glutinous rice and bought the leaves, which surprised me.

I put my rice in the leaves, and I was all over the table, and I was angry. My sister said to me, "you want to make a triangular shape of the leaf and put the rice in it!"

So I did what my sister said, and pressed it on the rice. Whats in the middle of that dish? It was minced meat! I dug a small hole in the middle of the glutinous rice and made it into a round shape, stuffing it into glutinous rice and adding it to the glutinous rice. How can you seal it? I looked at my sister and knew everything.

I pressed down one of the warped leaves and pressed the rope hard. Success! I covered a lot of them in the previous method. Now its time to get the pot down, boil the water first, and then put the dumplings on.

After a while, the dumplings were cooked. The four of you sat at the table and ate the dumplings.

I untied the rope and was trying to remove the leaves, but when I touched it, it was hot. Her sister looked and laughed. I blew and blew the heat away. I again carefully will leaves open, eat up to her delicious dumplings - among all be stuffed glutinous rice, wrapped in a delicious meat, fresh juice in your mouth, no oil is not greasy, and chewy, feels so good!

So the Dragon Boat Festival in the past, his mouth to eat with his hand package dumplings, thought the tang dynasty poet du fu wrote poems: palace clothing is famous, dragon boat be reward. The wind is soft and the snow is light. When the weather is wet, lets go to the heat. The meaning is the length of the word, the whole life.

What a happy Dragon Boat Festival!

过端午节，一定少不了粽子!今天，姐姐就在教我包粽子呢!你瞧。

做粽子一定要有准备的。原来，姐姐已准备好浸泡了3个小时的糯米，同时也买好了粽叶，这样准备就让我大吃一惊了。

我把米放在叶子里，可米全撒在了桌上，我生气极了。姐姐对我说：“你要把叶子做成一个三角形的样子，然后再把米放进去啊!”

于是，我按照姐姐说的步骤作了一遍，在米上按了按，咦?旁边那个盘子中间放的是什么?原来是肉馅哦!我在糯米中间挖了一个小洞洞，把肉馅弄成圆状，塞入糯米中，让它也加入糯米的行列中。可怎么封好呢?我看了眼姐姐，就明白了一切。

我把翘起来的一片叶子按下来，并用绳子用力的扎紧。成功啦!我按照前面的方法，包了好多个。现在就要下锅了，先是把水烧开，然后把粽子放下去。

过了一会儿，粽子煮好了。大家四人坐在桌子旁，吃起了粽子。

我把绳子解开，正想把叶子摘掉，可我一碰，就被烫着了。姐姐看了，哈哈的笑了起来。我吹着吹着，把让热气吹走了。我再次小心翼翼的将叶子掀开，吃起了自己亲手做的香喷喷的粽子来——白白胖胖的糯米中间，包着一团鲜汁可口的肉馅，放入口中，不油不腻，又有嚼劲，感觉太好了!

端午节就这么过去了，嘴里吃着自己亲手包的粽子，心里想着我国唐代诗人杜甫写的诗：宫衣亦有名，端午被恩荣。细葛含风软，香罗叠雪轻。自天题处湿，当暑着来清。意内称长短，终身荷圣情。

这真是一个快乐的端午节!

Of all the festivals in China, Dragon Boat Festival is my favorite. When the Dragon Boat Festival comes, not only the family will pack the zongzi, but some communities or units will organize the group to carry on the game of zongzi. Many water towns will organize a dragon boat race, which is magnificent and spectacular.

When I was young, my mother told me that the Dragon Boat Festival in the 5th day of the fifth month of the Chinese lunar calendar was first to commemorate the great patriotic poet Qu Yuan, which gradually took the day as a holiday. My father told me that Qu Yuan is a Chu state living in the past 2000 years. He is a great poet and patriot and a loyal minister. In order to the people can live a happy life, he dared to point out the king was the wrong thing to do, so the old people loved him. But when the new king came to power, he was unconscious, and did not listen to Qu Yuans advice and claim, and lost an important battle with the state of Qin. The state of Chu was occupied by the state of Qin. After Qu Yuan heard the news, he died in the Miluo river. The local people are afraid that the fish in the river will eat Qu Yuans body, so they can put rice dumplings and other food into the river. After the death of Qu Yuan, the local legend went to the sky on a dragon boat. It was at the beginning of May each year five Dragon Boat Festival, dumplings, dragon boat racing has become an important activity.

In China, people like Dragon Boat Festival very much. Now people in the city are busy with their own work, so they cant sell their zongzi Festival, so they go to various supermarkets to buy. In the supermarket there are many types of dumplings, rice dumplings with bacon, candied dumplings, dumplings and so on, very much the pattern. After the dumplings are cooked in a pot, open the lid of the pot and smell it. It is full of the fragrance of the dumplings in the house, tasting a mouthful, and the sweet taste of the glutinous rice in the full mouth. Besides eating zongzi, people can also watch dragon boat racing. On the river, the dragon boat in front of the leading high, vivid. The whole dragon boat was narrow and long. There was a big drum in front, and one after another sat a lot of strong young men. With the sound of the drums, they paddled neatly on the surface of the water. For a while, splashing, drums, voice and the sound of refueling on the riverbank were coming up. The scene was magnificent and spectacular.

I like the Dragon Boat Festival, not only because it can eat delicious zongzi, see the wonderful dragon boat race, and more like its historical connotation. Every time I pass the Dragon Boat Festival, I can always think of Qu Yuan, think of his slamming and long sword, reciting "Li Sao" in the mouth, walking between the rivers and lakes, his loyalty and perseverance. His literary grace influences the generation of Chinese. If we compare traditional Chinese festivals to a piece of silk with jewels, then the Dragon Boat Festival is a bright pearl on the silk.

端午节的意义

农历五月初五为端午节，又称端阳节、午日节、五月节、艾节、端五、重午、午日、夏节。虽然名称不同，但各地人民过节的习俗是相同的。端午节是我国二千多年的旧习俗，每到这一天，家家户户都悬钟馗像，挂艾叶菖蒲，赛龙舟，吃粽子，饮雄黄酒，游百病，佩香囊，备牲醴。

端午节的第一个意义就是纪念历史上伟大的民族诗人屈原。屈原，名平，是战国时代的楚国人，生于楚威王五年夏历正月初七，或谓生于楚宣王二十七年，卒于楚襄王九年。

端午节的第二个意义是伍子胥的忌辰。伍子胥名员，楚国人，父兄均为楚王所杀，后来子胥弃暗投明，奔向吴国，助吴伐楚，五战而入楚都郢城。当时楚平王已死，子胥掘墓鞭尸三百，以报杀父兄之仇。吴王阖庐死后，其子夫差继位，吴军士气高昂，百战百胜，越国大败，越王勾践请和，夫差许之。子胥建议，应彻底消灭越国，夫差不听，吴国大宰，受越国贿赂，谗言陷害子胥，夫差信之，赐子胥宝剑，子胥以此死。子胥本为忠良，视死如归，在死前对邻舍人说："我死后，将我眼睛挖出悬挂在吴京之东门上，以看越国部队入城灭吴。"便自刎而死，夫差闻言大怒，令取子胥之尸体装在皮革里于五月五日投入大江，因此相传端午节亦为纪念伍子胥之日。

端午节第三个意义是为纪念东汉孝女曹娥救父投江而死。曹娥是东汉上虞人，父亲溺于江中，数日不见尸体，当时孝女曹娥年仅十四岁，昼夜沿江号哭。过了十七天，在五月五日也投江，五日后抱出父尸。就此传为神话，继而相传至县府知事，令度尚为之立碑，让他的弟子邯郸淳作诔辞颂扬。孝女曹娥之墓，在今浙江绍兴，后传曹娥碑为晋王义所书。后人为纪念曹娥的孝节，在曹娥投江之处兴建曹娥庙，她所居住的村镇改名为曹娥镇，曹娥殉父之处定名为曹娥江。

端午节第四个意义是纪念现代革命女诗人秋瑾。秋瑾是六月五日殉国，后人为敬仰其诗，复哀其忠勇事迹，乃与诗人节合并举行纪念，而诗人节亦因纪念爱国诗人屈原而定为端午节。秋瑾字睿卿竞雄，号鉴湖女侠，小字玉姑，浙江绍兴人，幼年擅长诗、词、歌、赋，且喜骑马击剑，有花木兰、秦良玉在世之称。28岁时参加革命，影响极大，预谋起义，开会时为清兵所捕，不屈，于光绪三十三年六月五日在绍兴轩亨口英勇就义。
