Set in the history about the beginning of the Spring Festival.

Legend rao period, our country has this festival, shells we find in the oracle, there are also records about the Spring Festival, celebrated the first Spring Festival custom wind, but at that time, calendar, is to rely on "view as timing", is accurate, it is difficult to determine, in 104 BC the first year of emperor too early, created "the beginning calendar", our people and at specified day of the first lunar month as from then on, the customs of the lunar New Year is been around for 2000 years, until the founding of new China, to switch to the later, the holiday is to the Spring Festival.

In our country the most ancient written records, there are many stories about the beginning of month, and the New Year, it is "the autumn harvest winterizing later in the season," han zheng xuan also said that early age is not "of LaoNong to rest." Our todays terms, is the meaning of combining exertion and rest.

So whats the Spring Festival? According to legend, in a long time ago, there was a man named ten thousand youth, see the seasonal mess, want to seasonal probable, one day, he went up into the mountain cutting wood, sit down to rest under the shade and shadow movement inspired him, and he devised a sundial shadow gauge measurement days. Day rain fog, however, affect the measurement, the later, cliff drops springs cause his interest, he began to make the five layers clepsydra, over time, he found that every three hundred and sixty days, and the length of days will repeat.

At that time the king called ZuYi, days of the contingency, made him very upset. The secretary of a named scale, in order to curry favor with the emperor, play to tiantai worship god worship, ZuYi justification, has led officials to worship, but to no avail, know that in ten thousand, could not help but to see the emperor with the sundial and clepsydra, to explained the lunisolar ZuYi run of reason.

Now we also have a New Year customs, such as "f" word, firecrackers, happy New Year and so on.

春节是我国各民族的传统节日，100多年前，民间艺人“百本张”曾在他的曲本中这样写道：“正月里家家贺新年，元宵佳节把灯观，月正圆，花盒子处处瞅，炮竹阵阵喧，惹得人大街小巷都游串。”这历史上关于岁首春节的生动定照。

相传尧舜时期，我国就有这个节日，殷商甲骨文的卜辞中，亦有关于春节的记载，有庆祝风首春节的风俗，但当时历法，是靠“观象授时”，是否准确，尚难确定，到了公元前104年汉武帝太初元年，我国人民创造了“太初历”，明确规定以农历正月为岁首，从这时起，农历新年的习俗就流传了2000多年，直到新中国成立，改用公元以后，这个节日就改为春节。

在我国最古的文字记载中，有许多关于岁首的故事，腊月和新春，正是“秋收冬藏”以后的农闲季节，汉郑玄也说过，岁未年初“劳农以休息之”。拿我们今天的话来说，就是劳逸结合的意思。

那么春节到底是怎么来的呢?相传，在很久以前，有一个名叫万年的青年，看到当时节令很乱，想把节令定准，一天，他上山砍柴，坐在树阴下面休息，树影的移动启发了他，他设计了一个测日影计天时的日晷仪。可是，天阴雨雾，影响测量，后来，山崖上的滴泉引起他的兴趣，他又动手做了五层漏壶，天长日久，他发现每隔三百六十多天，天时的长短就会重复一遍。

那时的国君叫祖乙，天时风云的不测，使他很苦恼。一个名叫阿衡的大臣，为讨好皇上，奏称要设天台敬祭天神，祖乙认为有理，便带领百官去祭天，却无济于事，万年知道后，忍不住带着日晷仪和漏壶去见皇上，对祖乙讲清了日月运行的道理。祖乙听后龙颜大悦，感到有道理。于是把万年留下，在天坛前修建日月阁，筑起日晷台和漏壶亭，并派了十二童子服待万年，祖乙对万年说：“希望你能测准日月规律，推算出准确的晨夕时间，创建历法，为天下的黎民百姓造福。”

有一次，祖乙传旨要阿衡去了解万年测试历法的进展情况，当他登上日月坛时看见天坛边的石壁上写了一些字，阿衡看见后，知道万年的历法已研究成功，怕皇上重用他，于日派人刺杀万年，结果刺客被士卫抓住了，祖乙知道后，惩处了阿衡，亲自登上日月阁看望万年，万年指着天象，对祖乙说：“现在正是十二个月满，旧岁已完，新春复始，祈请国君定个节吧。”祖乙说：“春为岁道，就叫春节吧。”

冬去春来，年复一年，后来，万年经过长期观察，精心推算，制定了准确的太阳历，后来为了纪念万年的功绩，便将太阳日命名为“万年历”封万年为日月寿星，以后，人们在过年时挂上寿星图，据传说就是为了纪念万年的。

现在我们过年也有一些习俗，如倒贴“福”字，放爆竹，拜年等等。

One of the house decorations is to  couplets doors. On the Spring Festival couplets, good wishes are expressed. New Year couplets are usually postand auspiciousnes.

People in north China are used to posting paper-cut on their windows. When sticking the window decoration paper-cuts, people paste on the door large red Chinese character “fu” A red "fu" means good luck

and fortune, so it is customary to post "fu" on doors or walls on auspicious occasions such as wedding, festivals.

房屋装饰之一就是在门上贴对联。在春联上，抒发良好的祝愿。春联通常是成对张贴，因为双数在中国文化中是好运气和吉祥的象征。

在中国北方，人们习惯于在窗户上贴剪纸。人们既在窗户上贴剪纸，又在大门上贴上大大的红色汉字“福”字，一个红色“福”字意味着好运和财富，因此习惯上在婚礼，节日之类的吉祥场合中，人们都会在门或墙上贴“福”字。

Within China， regional customs and traditions concerning the celebration of the Chinese new year vary widely。 People will pour out their money to buy presents， decoration， material， food， and clothing。 It is also the tradition that every family thoroughly cleans the house to sweep away any ill-fortune in hopes to make way for good ining luck。 Windows and doors will be decorated with red colour paper-cuts and couplets with popular themes of “happiness”， “wealth”， and “longevity”。 On the Eve of Chinese New Year， supper is a feast with families。 Food will include such items as pigs， ducks， chicken and sweet delicacies。 The family will end the night with firecrackers。 Early the next morning， children will greet their parents by wishing them a healthy and happy new year， and receive money in red paper envelopes。 The Chinese New Year tradition is a great way to reconcile forgetting all grudges， and sincerely wish peace and happiness for everyone。

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。

Before the New Year’s Day, the Chinese people usually give their houses a good cleaning and on the last evening of the old year, all the members of a family will get together and have a big meal.

[高中优秀英语作文：《春节》

My Spring Festival was great. Before the Chinese New Year, my families were all going to my grandparents’. Many of my relatives there were playing all the night. At night, we set off firecrackers. The voice was very loud, cars parked far from us were sounding. Maybe they feared the voice too.

The first day of the Chinese New Year, we all got up early. We said “Happy New Year!” or “Good luck this year!” to each other and get money from them. We visited our relatives all day. That made me feel very tired but very happy because I also can get money.

The second day of the New Year, I slept during the morning. In the afternoon, I went to the beautiful countryside, and visited the Yi River, it is very wide, about 1 kilometer.

Next day, we left my grandparents’ home for Qingdao. The expressway had been frozen. It was terrible! So we could only run by at a slow speed.

This festival was great, I love Spring Festival!

Since the Spring Festival Gala on CCTV was established in the 1980s, it has been confirmed to be a huge success by attracting most audience in China. On the Eve of the Spring Festival, numerous Chinese will sit in front of the television screens looking forward to enjoy the annual celebration.

In modern China, watching the gala is still a traditional way to celebrate Chinese lunar New Year. However, the Gala seems to be suffering from declining rates of audience over the past few years. Actually, the Gala is never the only option any more when competing with several local televisions, which provide better possible choices. In addition, it is criticized that the traditional items of the Gala fail to appeal to people’s changing appetite, particularly the younger generation. Although the famous stars from Hong Kong and Taiwan are highly expected to add some freshness and modern elements to the performance, the Gala are still somewhat disappointing, far away from splendid. Consequently, the Gala is advocated to be cancelled due to its declination of reputation as well as the stereotyped content.

From my point of view, the Spring Festival Gala on CCTV should be still reserved because it is really good at creating a very colorful holiday atmosphere. Besides, it does have at least one or two excellent performance every year some of which become indelible memories. If the Gala can be redesigned to enrich its performance further, it will get away from being mediocre. But it is unnecessary to expect achieving its previous success. After all, the time has changed.

Nian Gao:The northerners eat Jiao Zi, but southerners like to eat Nian Gao, which translates to "New Year Cake". In Chinese, Gao is a homonym for high. Nian Gao is also called Nian Nian Gao, which is a homonym for "higher each year", symbolizing progress and promotion at work and in daily life and improvement in life year by year.

Nian Gao is a sweet, sticky, brown cake made from rice flour and sugar, a kind of glutinous white cake in the shape of rectangle. Often given as a gift, it is delicious when steamed, fried, fried with eggs or even eaten cold.

Given the importance of food in Chinese culture, it is not surprising that food plays a major role in Chinese New Year celebrations. "Lucky" foods are served through the two week Chinese New Year celebration, also called the Spring festival.

According to the home of old rules, the Spring Festival is almost started from the twelfth month.

Laba day, people will drink laba rice porridge. Laba rice porridge to drink, it has a longan, pearl barley, wheat, glutinous rice, mung beans, red beans, kidney beans, peanuts.

In the New Years eve is a real buzz. Do only every catch, the fragrance of wine meat long echoed in the sky, the adults stick couplets, outside home beautiful pictures, which are all night lights, firecrackers all night. People go to work or work outside, we must come back, eat family reunion dinner. The night people have shou sui.

On the first day of sight is not the same. People will go out to happy New Year, is generally less to elder happy New Year, the children will get much more special New Years money, some children will buy toys, also some will save money, buy school things in the future.

The Lantern Festival, the supermarket was particularly busy, people buy yuanxiao home cooked, so the family reunion, sweet.

By December 16, the hometown of the Spring Festival will be over, people began to busy life.

按照家乡的老规矩，过春节差不多从腊月就开始了。

腊八这天，人们要喝腊八粥。腊八粥可好喝了，它里面有桂圆、苡米、麦片、糯米、绿豆、红豆、芸豆、花生。

到了除夕可真热闹。家家赶做年菜，酒肉的香味在天空中久久地回荡着，大人们在门外贴对联，家中贴漂亮的年画，哪一家都通宵灯火，鞭炮声彻夜不绝。在外上班或打工的人，一定得赶回来，吃团圆饭。这一夜人们还得守岁。

大年初一的景象可不一样。人们都会出去拜年，一般是年少的给长辈拜年，孩子们会得到特别多的压岁钱，有的孩子会买玩具，也有的会把钱存起来，将来再买学习用品。

到了元宵节，超市就特别热闹，人们买元宵回家煮着吃，为的是一家人团团圆圆、甜甜蜜蜜。

到了腊月十六，家乡的春节也就结束了，人们又开始了忙碌的生活。

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。"
