关于元宵节的英文介绍

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.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。

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.

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。

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.

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。

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

The empty dam below my home was clean and tidy, and now the empty dam is full of rubbish, especially on rainy days, polluted water, and pedestrians passing by. The other people, because of the strength of the power, threw the garbage just hanging on the tree, ugly dead.

Im going to talk to the grown-ups. Theyre not talking to me. What are the kids doing? And drove me out. After I was driven out, I thought to myself, "this cant work. I can go to the neighborhood committee." So I went to the neighborhood committee. When I arrived at the neighborhood committee, I said to an aunt, "aunt, I want to reflect that someone in this building is littering." Aunt kind of say: "kid, the things we already know, one building will see you in a few days to clean the residents of the building to education, by the way you, you are quick to go home." I had to go home and wait for someone to clean. A few days later, we actually saw someone to clean, clean the people of the whole building up and down, left and right, fringes sweep of very clean, after finished, clean people will start all the residents of education building (including me), finished her education and clean people have left. After I passed this, I never saw him/them littering.

I suggest that we really want to protect the environment, because it is peoples responsibility to protect the environment. If people do get it right, we can have a good home.

孝，是中华民族的传统美德。百善孝为先，要做好一个人，首先就要做到孝。孝是做人的标准，是人必备的品德。

有一次，妈妈和爸爸去上班，我起来后，看见屋里乱糟糟的，心想：“妈妈爸爸上了一天班，回来还要做饭、扫地、擦桌子，肯定很累，那就让我来干吧，给爸爸妈妈分担点。”

说干就干，我先把桌子擦干净，再把地扫了，最后叠了被子。我又烧开了热水，给爸爸妈妈倒了两杯热茶，还把拖鞋在门口准备好。

爸爸妈妈下班回到家，看到屋里很干净，问是不是我打扫的，我说“是的”。他们微笑着，仿佛一天的疲倦都没有了，爸爸坐在沙发上一直夸我懂事了，我心里比吃了蜜还要甜。

《三字经》里，有一句“香九龄，能温席”。黄香九岁时，她的母亲就去世了，于是，她把自己所有的爱都倾注在父亲身上。天冷时，黄香提前给父亲暖被窝，天热了，为了让父亲睡个安稳觉，她扇扇子，赶蚊子，自己却热的满头大汗。

是谁给了我们生命？是父母。是谁辛辛苦苦把我们养大？是父母。孝顺长辈是中华民族的传统美德，孝敬父母是我们义不容辞的责任，我们决不能丢掉老一代流传下来的良好品德，让我们尽自己最大的努力去孝顺长辈，让我们一起把孝传承下去吧！

April Fools Day is a day to play jokes on others, No one knows how this holiday began but people think it first started in France.

In the 16 th century, people celebrated New Years Day from March 25 to April 1. In the mid—1560s King Charles IX changed it from March 25 to January 1. But some people still celebrated in on April 1, so others called them April Fools.

Each country celebrates April Fools Day differently. In France, people call the April Fools “April Fish”. They tape a paper fish to their friends backs to fool them. When he or she finds this , they shout “April Fish!”

In England, people play jokes only in the morning. You are a “noodle” if someone fools you. In Scotland, April Fools Day is 48 hours long. They call an April Fool “April Gowk”. Gowk is another name for a cuckoo bird.

In the America, people play small jokes on their friends and any other people on the first of Aprol. They may point down to your shoe and say, “ Your shoelace is untied.” If you believe them and look down to see, you are an April Fool then.

Whatever a man’s status is (may be)， he must have an aim。 If not， he can

hardly stand on his own two feet in the world。 That stands to reason。However

important fame and wealth may be， we must not let them bee our object in life。

We should aim at doing something useful to the society。If my aim can e true， I

hope (wish) to be a teacher。 However， teaching is by no means an easy thing。 I

must apply myself closely to my studies so as to be able to cope with my duties

(as a teacher)。

亲爱的圣诞老人：

见信悦!

圣诞老人，虽然我不知道真实的你长什么样，但是我在很多照片上看过你的样子。每年的十二月二十五日，你都会给我们送来圣诞礼物。

传说，你会坐着满载礼物的驯鹿车，拉着雪橇，为每位小朋友送礼物。我还知道，你会穿着圣诞服，戴着红色的圣诞帽，悄悄地把礼物放进小朋友的圣诞袜子里。

所以每个小朋友都非常喜欢过圣诞节。这是一个充满了童话色彩的节日。

每年的圣诞节，我们都可以实现自己的一个愿望。今年的圣诞节，我有一个愿望。圣诞老人，你可以帮我实现吗?我身上有一个坏习惯，那就是做事写作业都很慢。圣诞老人，你可以帮助我把这个坏习惯改掉吗?如果我可以改掉的话，妈妈不用再盯着我做作业啦!那样一来，妈妈会很开心的。

你是一个很了不起的圣诞老人，你会帮每个小朋友实现愿望。所以，你也可以帮我实现我的愿望吗?

祝：每天快快乐乐!健康长寿!

It was a sunny morning. My father and mother took me to play in the park. We came to the animal quarter and saw a lot of birds, most notably the ostrich.

The eye of the ostrich is very sharp, its mouth is pointed, the neck is thin and long, the feathers on the body are black, like a small black skirt.

An ostrich can be fun to eat! I put an apple on the fence and saw it back two paces, as if frightened. When it thought I didnt mean anything, I picked the apple up at once. After catching the food, he ate it with relish.

Although the ostrich is not as beautiful as the other birds, I like it very much.

I have never been to Shenzhen before. Many times, I dream of visiting Shenzhen because Shenzhen is a very modern,busy and beautiful city. and today, my dream has come true.

I am walking around the city center of Shenzhen and there are so many tall buildings on the sides of the streets. the streets are very big,straight and clean.I can see the buses,taxis,trains and cars on the road. people can choose their favourite way to go to work or travel. because there are a lot of department stores and supermarkets in Shenzhen,people can go shopping any where they wanted.

At night,Shenzhen becomes even more beatiful and colourful with all kinds of light. by walking on the street, you cant really tell where it is. it may be HongKong,Shanghai.

There are many scenery spots in Shenzhen.such as Folk Culture Village, Happy Valley, window of the world. but my favourite place is the window of the world.because i neednt go abroad but i can see the most of famous places in the world.

Shenzhen is an amazing city and i enjoy my visiting there so much.

我们经常可以发现：每当周末，贯通中西，对孝道的讨论非常充分，全无关系了，讲“孝道”是中国人的美德之一。

我国伟大的无产阶级革命家陈毅同志十分孝敬他的母亲。无怪乎有人这么评析、年幼，都遵循着“孝”。古时候的“孝”便为“顺”，纵使儿女成群，也不会出现儿孙满堂，欢聚一堂的情景，他们是冷漠的金钱关系。她母亲说：“这粗活还是让别人去干吧。从国外对孝道的冷漠的叙述中，“孝”的含义有了进一步的改变，从一味顺从，深化到了求大同，存小异，从精神、物质两方面来尽孝：西方资本主义世界是儿童的天堂，成人的战场和老人的地狱。其余则撒手不管，年老多病，把裤子拉脏了，该您吹蜡烛了。”

好一个生日宴会《孝道》

我看过这么一幅漫画：一家人围坐在餐桌前为姥姥举办生日宴会：“中国五千年文明的孝道哪里去了，孝顺永远连在一起，最后终于成为专有词。一家之中。可她在这九个儿女成人之后，就再也没有见过她们，顶多在圣诞节时收到几份小礼物：“姥姥，儿女必须言听计从，不论对错，无一不体现出中国人对“孝”的重视。

而国外与我们不同，一律服从，这也是孝的一种体现。

而今。

可见，上至领袖！我不禁问道。”陈毅却说，聚在一起，对老人问寒问暖，给老人买补品，一些老人的家里总是儿女满堂，我们就可以看出东西方文明的差异，决不能像那幅漫画所画的那样做，而是进一步把我们中华民族的美德发扬光大！

the first day of the lunar new year is "the welcoming of the gods of the heavens and earth."

many people abstain from meat on the first day of the new year because it is believed that this will ensure long and happy lives for them.

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.

the third and fourth days are for the sons-in-laws to pay respect to their parents-in-law.

the fifth day is called po woo. on that day people stay home to welcome the god of wealth.

no one visits families and friends on the fifth day because it will bring both parties bad luck.

on the sixth to the 10th day, the chinese visit their relatives and friends freely. they also visit the temples to pray for good fortune and health.

the seventh day of the new year is the day for farmers to display their produce.

these farmers make a drink from seven types of vegetables to celebrate the occasion. the seventh day is also considered the birthday of human beings. noodles are eaten to promote longevity and raw fish for success.

on the eighth day the fujian people have another family reunion dinner, and at midnight they pray to tian gong, the god of heaven.

古人有云；百山孝为先。羊跪乳，牛反哺，知恩知善，孝方为人。的确，作为中国历史悠久，蕴意深厚的美德之一；‘孝’早已成为中国的代言词。

孝道，古亦有道，今亦有孝。古有古人对孝的感知；今有今对孝的回报。孝道，千百年间，流转回荡在各色人物之间。停驻在每个的心里，印刻在每个人的灵魂深处。孝看似无法触及其边，其实似千千万万条小溪江汇聚而成的蓬勃不息的海洋。由身边不起眼的小事拼凑而成的。亦如年幼时期的吴猛，为父不在受蚊虫叮咬之苦，使身为饵，喂饱蚊子，自身却受到数不清的蚊包传来的疼痛。但他仍在笑，是在关为心父亲做的这种行为成功而感到喜悦的吧！

孝，百善孝为先，功名利禄也无其重要。古代孝儿朱寿昌大人曾为寻找多年以前的母亲而毅然放弃奋斗多年的职位，放弃诱人的高官厚禄，一人独自踏上寻亲路。也许，在他的心里任何东西都比不母亲的地位吧。

‘孝’亦为‘笑’当父母不开心时，为父母分忧，使父母快乐是我们身为儿女的本份。‘老菜子’就是我们的榜样，看到父母在大堂上郁郁寡欢的样子，他便开始想办法让父母亲快乐，于是便有了著名的孝事－戏彩娱亲。老菜子真正做到了孝与笑混在一起的‘孝’，他不愧为孝子。

孝，古今皆有，但又各有千秋。古之孝，亦有愚孝。而今更多的是理孝。

孝，在今天更加倍受关注，也更受人们的推崇。如‘最美孝心少年’的举办以及其他一些活动等，活动中那些孝敬父母和长辈的少年们，他们是我们的小榜样，他们值得我们学习。

孝亲敬长是我们中华民族的传统美德，更是我们传递正能量建设社会主义文化建设的需要。

孝要把握当下，一万年太久，只争朝夕。我们不能等到亲不待时才欲养。

谈孝，让孝住进我们心灵深处；让孝伴在我们的生活左右；深深吸一口那藏匿在我们身边小事中的孝，仔细品味，你会发现其中的甘甜与美味以及那暖暖的笑带来的滋养。

谈孝，让我们尽孝。以小事汇集为浩荡的大海，让生活处在孝亲的暖阳里。

My favorite sports is playing basketball. I liked playing basketball when I

was a child. I think playing basketball is a very interesting and healthy

sports. Usually, after class, I always go to play basketball with my friends.

Meanwhile, it is beneficial for our health to play basketball. Most importantly,

playing basketball can makes me become stronger. Besides, I can also get the

opportunity to comunicate with each other, which makes me get well along with my

classmates. In short, I can benefit a lot from palying baketball reasonably

every day.

People always say that we should not judge a person from his appearance. In

todays society, the mass media is like the appearance, what they report will

decide the way that people treat things. For most foreigners, before they come

to China, they dont know about this country. What they learn is from the mass

media, the worse thing is that the media always report the negative sides. So

when they come to China and realize things are much funny here. Before we make

judgment, we need to search the overall information, or it is better for us to

pay a visit. The way we treat things decides what kind of person we are.

In the second eye, 20XX slipped like a naughty child, and a new 20XX came out of my head in front of me. Ha-ha！ The new year has arrived, and I also have a new plan.

In our house, Im a good snack. In the past year, I always cant control my mouth. I always find an excuse: I am in the critical period of long body growth. It doesnt matter if I eat more. Oh! No, my height is 1.55 meters long, and I can become stronger in the transverse direction. The weight has reached 90 Jin. I have not even participated in the sports meeting. The new year, I want to hold his own small mouth, not on any delicacy all comers, to ensure their own health conditions, more exercise, long stature, less horizontal development.

I think there is a bad habit of writing homework. Its too close to posture. Because my eyes cant bear it. I also become a "four eye family". The doctor told me that I still have a low degree now, it is false myopia, if it is correct posture, pay attention to eye use, or can remove glasses. Oh, good hope, I want to get rid of the bad habit of sitting in the new year, glasses, you wait, I will soon be with you to worship.

My family is about half an hours walk from the school. Before, my mother was not at ease, and I was afraid of wasting time. She was transported by battery car to me, which was neither electricity nor environmental protection. In the new year, Im going to school they go, because this section of the road to school early are familiar with the road, and also met with my classmates, not what to fear; and I do a lot of small cards at home, write English words, can walk in the back, time will not be waste. Mother saw my plan, which was both green and healthy, and nod agreed.

New years new year plan, new years new hope, refueling!
