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.

The Spring Festival春节

Far and away the most important holiday in China is Spring Festival, also known as the Chinese New Year. To the Chinese people it is as important as Christmas to people in the West. the dates for this annual celebration are determined by the lunar calendar rather than the GREgorian calendar, so the timing of the holiday varies from late January to early February.

To the ordinary Chinese, the festival actually begins on the eve of the lunar New Year’s Day and ends on the fifth day of the first month of the lunar calendar. But the 15th of the first month, which normally is called the Lantern Festival, means the official end of the Spring Festival in many parts of the country.

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……

Dear Kim:

I feel so happy to hear that you are interested in the Chinese spring festival, which is one most important symbol of Chinese culture. With my great honor, I am here sharing my knowledge about it with you.

The spring festival, also called Chinese New Year, enjoys a long history of over 4,000 years. Unlike other festivals, the Spring festival is a period of time, rather than a single day. It starts from the first day of a new year and ends on January 15th, , of course in the Chinese lunar calendar. But people usually start to celebrate the Spring Festival on the day before the New Years Day, which is called "New Years Eve", when all members of a family get together, have a big meal together(called Nian Ye Fan in Chinese) and watch the Spring Festival gala, indulged in the especially warm and sweet atmosphere of reunion.

There are a variety of activities during the Spring festival, among which at least three deserve your special attention. First, when the new years first bell rings out the old year and rings in the new, adults and children get out of the houses and light crackers and fireworks, which decorates the sky into a colorful and magnificent stage.

Then, on the morning of the New Years Day, people get up very early to stick couplets, on which all good wished are presented. Meanwhile, the red color of the couplets adds much to the joy of the splendid festival.

In addition, we have to visit our relatives from door to door as of the first day of the Spring Festival until the Lantern Festival, which is supposed to be a conclusion of the whole Spring Festival.

Kim, the short letter here surely fails me to give you a complete account of our Spring Festival. I sincerely hope, if possible, that you can come here in China to have a real experience about it.

Best wishes!

Yours,

Li Hua

你好!

听说你对中国的春节很感兴趣，我很高兴。春节是中国文化中最重要的一个象征。这里，我很荣幸地与你分享一些我对春节所了解的知识。

春节，也叫作中国新年，有着超过4000多年的历史。与其他的节日不同，春节是一个时间段，而不是指单独某一天。它是从一月的第一天一直到十五日，当然是按照中国的农历。但是人们通常都从大年初一前一天就开始庆祝春节，这一天也叫除夕，一大家人会团聚起来，吃个大餐(我们中国人管它叫年夜饭)，看春晚，沉浸在家人团聚的特殊温馨的氛围之中。

春节里有很多的活动，其中至少有三样事情值得你关注。首先，当新年的第一次钟声响起，一个辞旧迎新的时刻到来了，大人和小孩都会到室外去放鞭炮，放烟花，把整个天空装扮成了一个五彩缤纷的大舞台。

然后，在大年初一的早上，人们都很早起来贴春联。春联上写满了吉祥的话语。同时，春联的红色也为这个绚丽的节日增添了不少的欢乐。

还有，从年初一开始我们都要挨家挨户去拜访亲戚，一直到元宵节。元宵节的到来就意味着春节的结束。

金，短短的信件中我没法向你很详尽地描述好我们的春节。如果可能的话，我真心希望你能来中国好好的体验一下。

致敬

In order to prepare for this New Years eve dinner, some of the essential traditional entrees are not available for the first ten days and a half months. The most important of these are "dunking" and "pepper irrigation". Xu wenxu said, "the cut meat" seems simple, but to be really fat and not greasy, soft and smooth mouth, is to take a hard time. "Irrigation HaiJiao" is to mix in the glutinous rice noodles HaiJiao ingredients after fill in the empty one by one, and then into a pickle jar sealed half a month, in the New Years eve, take out a Fried oil will be ready to serve.

Tujia attaches importance to the two dish, because before all the year round on a few back to meat rare, glutinous rice is also a rare thing, so every family take this chance to show your skills as a family reunion dinner two dish, is also the family in order to reward hard work for a year.

Surprisingly, the kelp was once the main dish of the tujia family reunion dinner. Because the former tujia region to eat salt and water is difficult, medical conditions are also poor, often people have a large neck disease due to iodine deficiency. In order to provide the family with iodine, the family members of the family in the lunar New Year dinner together with a kelp, in order to replenish the iodine needed by the human body. Under the conditions at that time, the kelp was a "delicacies" to the family, and it was impossible to eat them regularly, so it became a good dish for the annual dinner. Today, the kelp has long been out of the stage.

After the family had eaten the New Years eve dinner, each family would have a log of firewood, and everyone would sit around and listen to the old man telling the story. The old man was waiting for the first day, and he was called "the ridge of the field" to express his love for the field.

Ethnic Korean: "wine" and "degu" occupy a special place

The yanbian Korean autonomous prefecture of jilin province is the main settlement area of Korean nationality in China, and the Spring Festival is also the traditional and most important festival of Korean nationality. The Korean lunar New Year meal has its own traditional food and features.

The Korean people have a lot of food, large and small plates, or even hundreds of dishes. The special place is the old wine and degu.

On the eve of the Spring Festival, reporters in the villages of yanbian Korean autonomous prefecture saw that many ethnic Korean villagers were brewing "old wine". The Korean people have the custom of drinking "wine" at the feast. This wine is often brewed before the "year of the year". The festival is equivalent to the Spring Festival of the han nationality, and the "year old wine" is mainly made of rice, which is a kind of medicinal liquor. During the Spring Festival, they drink and entertain themselves. They believe that drinking this wine can ward off evil spirits and long life.

"Is" is a kind of bread, soup is to big rice noodle and steamed, pounded into big stick, and then rub into oval round bar, sliced, pour into chickens, pheasants, beef soup pot, to eat again when put some sesame oil and sesame oil and seaweed, taste delicious.

On the thirtieth day, Korean women wear beautiful national costumes. Most families start making cakes in the early morning. Despite the fact that there are now machines for making cakes, they still prefer to use the hammer for themselves, because they still taste different.

On New Years eve, a family reunion dinner is a very happy time, and the whole family will stay up all night. Unlike the han Chinese, the Korean family will dance and dance with the old Korean gayqin and pipe music to welcome the New Year.

刚进腊月，重庆市酉阳土家族苗族自治县板溪乡红杏村农民许文旭家就忙开了。为了准备好这顿年夜饭，一些必不可少的传统主菜不提前十天半月准备是不行的。其中最主要的当数“扣肉”和“灌海椒”。许文旭说，“扣肉”看似简单，但要做到真正肥而不腻、嫩滑爽口，是要下一番工夫的。“灌海椒”则是把糯米面拌上作料后填入一个个掏空的海椒中，然后放入咸菜罐子里封存半个月，到了除夕，拿出来用油一炸就可以上桌了。

土家人之所以重视这两道菜，是因为以前一年到头难得吃上几回肉，糯米也是稀罕东西，因此家家都把这两道菜当作年夜饭展示手艺的机会，同时也是为了犒劳辛劳了一年的家人。

令人意外的是，海带还曾一度成为土家年夜饭的主菜。因为以前土家族聚集地区吃盐巴都困难，医疗条件也差，经常有人因缺碘患上大脖子病。为了给家人补碘，土家人就在年夜饭上一道海带，以补充人体所需的碘。在当时的条件下，海带对土家人来说，真可谓 “山珍海味”，经常吃根本不可能，因此成了年夜饭上的一道好菜。如今，海带早已退出年夜饭的“舞台”。

土家人吃过年夜饭后，各家都会燃起一根木柴，大家围坐聆听老人讲故事，守岁到天亮，名叫“守田埂”，以表达对田地的热爱。

朝鲜族：“岁酒”和“德固”占据特殊位置

吉林省延边朝鲜族自治州是我国朝鲜族主要聚居地区，春节也是朝鲜族的传统的和最重要的节日。朝鲜族的年夜饭有着自己传统的食品和特色。

朝鲜族的年夜饭丰常丰富，大大小小的盘子七八十个，有的人家甚至达上百个。其中占特殊位置的是‘岁酒’和‘德固’二种。

春节前夕，记者在延边朝鲜族自治州的各乡村看到，很多朝鲜族村民都在酿造“岁酒”。朝鲜族在年夜饭有喝“岁酒”的习俗。这种酒多在过“岁首节”前酿造。岁首节相当于汉族的春节，“岁酒”以大米为主料，配以多味中药材，是一种药酒。用于春节期间自饮和待客，他们认为饮用此酒可以避邪、长寿。

“德固”是一种汤饼，就是将大米面和好蒸熟后，捣成大粘团，再搓成椭圆形圆条，切成薄片，倒入鸡、野鸡、牛肉汤锅中，吃时再放些麻油或香油以及紫菜，味美可口。

在年三十那天，朝鲜族妇女都要穿上漂亮的民族盛装。大多数家庭从一大早就开始做打糕。尽管现在有卖做打糕的机器，但他们还是喜欢用打糕槌自己动手做，因为感觉味道还是不一样。

除夕夜一家都围在一起吃年夜饭，是非常幸福的时刻，全家都会守岁通宵达旦。与汉族不同的是，朝鲜族大年夜这顿饭会载歌载舞，伴着朝鲜族古老的伽耶琴和筒箫乐曲迎接新年的到来。
