贴门神这是几乎家家户户过年都要做的，关于贴门神还有一段有趣的神话传说：相传在古时候，有位龙王总想偷吃玉帝的贡品，玉帝发现后狠狠地惩罚了它，可龙王依然屡教不改，于是，玉帝让两位身强力壮的天神看守大门，不让龙王再来捣乱。可是两位天神和我们一样要睡觉休息。于是玉帝想了一个好办法，把两位天神的画像贴在门上，从此贴门神的习俗就这样代代流传。

在我国的北方有一种习俗，就是吃饺子，饺子的谐音即“交子”，表达了人们对更岁交子，对新的一年吉祥富裕的一种渴望。而南方人则喜欢在大年的早晨吃汤圆，意味着我们在新的一年里圆圆满满，团团圆圆。人们还喜欢把一种叫“荠菜”的蔬菜和汤圆一块吃，“荠菜”有被称作“聚财”意喻在新的一年招财进宝，心想事成。

春节里，我们更少不了要放鞭炮来活跃一下春节时欢欢喜喜的气氛了。放鞭炮在民间还有一个传说：相传在远古的时侯，有一只叫“年”的怪兽，每到春节的时候就出来吓唬人，于是人们就想了个办法，用竹筒点燃扔向它，竹筒爆炸后发出很大的声响，吓走了年兽，放鞭炮的习俗就这样流传下来了。

春节的习俗还有很多很多，它丰富了我们的知识，拉近了人们的距离。它是中华名族的优良传统，让我们一起去了解它们吧!

在传统节日中我喜欢过春节，春节是我们中华民族的传统节日，也是众多传统节日过的最为隆重、喜庆的。而在我眼里春节是小朋友们的“狂欢会”，因为春节可以放鞭炮、打游戏、看烟花……别提有多开心了!

一说起春节我就想起了去年过春节时候的情景。那天大采购，买了好多烟花白天的时候我就在那与小朋友你追我赶。

盼啊盼，终于到了晚上大家的“Party”终于开始了。饥肠辘辘的我们狼吞虎咽的吃着年夜饭，喝!年夜饭还真多，我都吃不下了!吃完年夜饭，我和姐姐拿着鞭炮冲了出去，拿出了“火绳”用老爸的打火机一烧，“火绳”就射出了五彩斑斓的光我把“火绳”甩起来“火绳”就像一个“火圈”一样好看极了!放完了“火绳”我们开始放“火树”了，我们用打火机点着了引线逐渐有一点点淡淡的火光的冒了出来，随着我们欢呼的声音火光逐渐减变大，渐渐地成了一棵树，我和姐姐就在旁边一边做动作一边喊：“高!高!高!”火光在树上跳动仿佛是小精灵在树上欢呼着、跳动着。终于放礼花了我，我们引燃了导线。99发的礼花像大炮一样陆续发送五彩缤纷好看极了!

Spring Festival is the most importantand popular festival in Spring Festival ,the people usually clean and decorate their they go to the Flower Fairs to buy some Spring Festival ,the adults usually give lucky money to often get together and have a big people eat dumpling for dinner.

The Spring Festival is a major festival for Chinese people. It has a long history and a splendid cultural background. And many small rules and little superstitions of the Spring Festival are the same.

Everyone should know that one thing is very important, for the spring festival. Lets not look down on this matter. For example, the fruit is not so careless, not all the fruits are suitable for the ancestors and gods. Choose a good fruit. For example: apple, orange, kumquat in peace, full house, orange, xinxiangshicheng. Like pears, not as a tribute because some people think pear and "leave" is the word homonym. So its not welcome. And its Bananas - a lot of trouble. So some fruit is not available.

There is only a part of fruit dumplings as a tribute tribute must not put in pairs of. As for the sugar tribute to put candy not fudge. Because the sweetness is hard enough.

For even one candle, incense, and so on, but the most important is the paper, paper to be really money before they can burn, but also a main pressure, which could be felt more sincere.

Whether it is true or false, but at least it is the reason why we must have our ancestors talked about. I hope that these Spring Festival common sense can let more and more post - 80s, and the post-90s know how important the Spring Festival is in the eyes of our Chinese people. If the Spring Festival does not have any taboos, it will mean that not so many people pay attention to it. The more rules, the more the significance of the Spring 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 programmes。

I like the Spring Festival very much。How wonderful the Spring Festival is！

春节是中国人民非常重要。在过去，人们不可能经常有肉，大米或其他美味的食物。在春节期间他们只能吃这些。所以每一年他们希望春节很快就会来的。现在，虽然人们的生活要好得多，我们可以每天吃美味的食物。人们仍然喜欢这个节日。因为大多数人可以有很长的假期，我们可以去旅行或访问我们的朋友和我们家有聚会。在晚上，我们可以有一顿大餐在餐馆或呆在家里和我的家人看电视节目。

我非常喜欢春节。春节是多么美妙！

Spring knowledge after dinner, I am holding her mothers hand, looking up at the sky, " Wow, so beautiful! " I looked at the sky and resplendent with variegated coloration fireworks, can not help stunned.

In the evening, each and every family all put up the fireworks, our family is no exception. Dad bought firecrackers from the street shops, fluorescence stick ... .... It was dark, I asked Dad put. Dad took the lighter, lit the fuse, set off firecrackers. " Crackling " sound of loud sound of firecrackers into my ears, I hastened to cover your ears. For a while, firecrackers finished, I took out my fluorescence stick, lit with a lighter, waved play. The fluorescence rod traces, like a meteor across the sky, lit up my heart.

We see so busy, sister also laicourenao. She picked up a fireworks lit, suddenly, from the triangle holes popped out of pure white, pure fireworks, it is like the fountain to upwelling, more more more more spray spray, high. Not a little while, there are more than one and a half high, good a fireworks! This pure fireworks like the water of the Milky way, dont mention it.

Looked at, looked at me and clapped his hands.

Late at night, the sound of firecrackers gradually disappeared, I also into the sweet dreams.

吃完年夜饭后，我牵着妈妈的手，抬头望着天空，“哇，好美呀！”我望着满天五光十色的烟花，不禁惊呆了。

傍晚时分，家家户户都放起了烟花，我们家也不例外。爸爸从沿街的小店里买鞭炮，荧光棒……。天黑了，我催爸爸快点放。爸爸拿来打火机，点燃了引火线，放起了鞭炮。“噼噼啪啪”一阵响亮的鞭炮声传入了我的耳朵，我赶紧捂住耳朵。一会儿，鞭炮放完了，我就拿出我的荧光棒，用打火机点燃后，挥舞着玩耍。那荧光棒的痕迹，犹如一颗颗流星划过天空，照亮了我的心房。

看我们这么热闹，姐姐也来凑热闹。她拿起一个烟花点燃后，突然，从三角形的小孔内蹦出洁白的，纯净的烟花，它像喷泉往上涌，越喷越高，越喷越高。不一会儿，就有半人多高，好一棵火树银花！这纯净的烟花似银河之水，别提有多美了。

叔叔捧着一个烟花点燃后，“坪”的一声，烟花就向天空射去，黑暗的天空犹如白昼。烟花在天空中散开，“啊，多美！”它像菊花一样，舒展着花瓣，绚丽多姿；像杜鹃那样大方。散开时也像流星坠落，好比天女散花。看着，看着我不禁鼓起掌来。

夜深了，鞭炮声渐渐消失了，我也进入了甜蜜的梦乡。

One day, an old man came to their rescue, offering to subdue Nian. To Nian he said, I hear say that you are very capable, but can you swallow the other beasts of prey on earth instead of people who are by no means of your worthy opponents? So, it did swallow many of the beasts of prey on earth that also harassed people and their domestic animals from time to time.

Before the old man left, he had told people to put up red paper decorations on their windows and doors at each year s end to scare away Nian in case it sneaked back again, because red is the color the beast feared the most.

在我的记忆中，每年的春节都是差不多的，热闹、喜庆而祥和。

春节的前几天，是大人们最忙的时候，张罗这张罗那，但是，却是我们小孩子最憧憬的时候。爸爸妈妈买了许多好吃的，而卧却只能眼巴巴地看着，可望而不可即，于是，便急切地盼望着春节的到来。

除夕那一天晚上，当然也是我家最开心的时候，全家三口人一齐静静地看着春节联欢晚会，偶尔外面传来几声鞭炮声，也会觉得特别有趣。电视里搞笑的小品，优美的舞蹈常常逗得我们哈哈大笑，这笑声伴随着窗外的鞭炮声，显得气氛愈加欢乐。

终于要正式过年了，拜年就是我们一家首要的任务了。每到一家，我都要说上一句吉祥话，如：“新年快乐”、“恭喜发财”等等，而爸爸妈妈则送上一份拜年时必备的礼品，主人则会拿出一个红包递给我，这是我最高兴的事了，于是心里盘算着这钱该怎么用，买些零食?或是文具?买点玩的也不错，谁知一回到家就被“无情”的妈妈给收了去，我只好无奈地把这些个幻想的泡泡给吹灭了。

接下来的几天，我们就到处做客，丰盛的饭菜，炫丽的灯光，大人们喝酒时的祝福包围住了我，而我呢?则和哥哥一人拿来一大瓶饮料，东东快快地喝了个够，哪晓得一会儿我的肚子便疼的厉害，难受极了，后悔啊。

正月十五元宵节，我已经上学了，新学年的开始，将意味着春节的结束，但在这一天，我们家还是要吃元宵的，过年的气氛丝毫没有减弱，照旧的笑声，照旧的喜庆，照旧的开心。

就这样，快乐的春节过去了，每当细细回想是，总会不禁笑出声来……

Chinese Spring Festival celebrating the end of winter and the warmth of spring. It began in the last day of the lunar year, end in the 15th day of lunar New Year, also is the Lantern Festival. During the Spring Festival, people use red lantern and Spring Festival couplets decorate a house, put on all kinds of colored clothes, often visit friends and relatives or together eat dumplings, fish, meat and other delicious food. The children are looking forward to receiving red envelope money, and together they play each other the fireworks, with happy. Street with dragon and lion dance and some other carnival activities, CCTV will held the grand Spring Festival gala.

Chinese New Year starts with the New Moon（新月）on the first day of the new year and ends on the full moon（满月）15 days later. The 15th day of the new year is called the Lantern Festival（元宵节）, which is celebrated at night with lantern displays and children carrying lanterns in a parade.?

The Chinese calendar is based on a combination of lunar and solar movements. The lunar cycle（月运周期）is about 29.5 days. In order to "catch up" with the solar calendar the Chinese an extra month once every few years (seven years out of a 19-yearcycle). This is the same as adding an extra day on leap year （闰年）. This is why, according to the solar calendar, the Chinese New Year falls on a different date each year.

New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day are celebrated as a family affair, a time of reunion and thanksgiving. The celebration was traditionally highlighted with a religious ceremony given in honor of Heaven and Earth（万物）, the gods of the household and the family ancestors.?

The sacrifice to the ancestors, the most vital of all the rituals（仪式）, united the living members with those who had passed away. Departed relatives are remembered with great respect because they were responsible for laying the foundations for the fortune and glory of the family.?

The presence of the ancestors is acknowledged on New Year’s Eve with a dinner arranged for them at the family banquet table. The spirits of the ancestors, together with the living, celebrate the onset of the New Year as one great community. The communal feast called "surrounding the stove" or Weilu. It symbolizes family unity and honors the past and present generations.

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.
