九年级上册春节英语作文(最新20篇)

陈胜、吴广的揭竿起义，给人以多么大的鼓舞啊!

陈胜幼年给人佣耕，后来被征发派去驻守渔阳，遇到了大雨，几百人被困大泽乡，延误了时期，在当时，误期要被杀头。于是，陈胜、吴广决定起义，陈胜带兵攻下大泽乡，继而又占领了许多地方，最后被推举为王。

“王候将相宁有种乎!”这是多么朴素的觉醒!陈胜、吴广正是怀着这种“鸿鹄之志”带领农民揭竿起义，并取得战争胜利。

故事的波澜起伏，陈胜的血气方刚让我执欣赏不已。像《三国演义》中：本是董卓结吕布，却弄出吕布杀董卓;本是关公寻刘备，却弄出张飞欲杀关公;本是孔明气死周瑜，却弄出孔明哭周瑜……… 本是秦王斩陈涉，却弄出陈涉攻城为王。谁曾说过天命难违，这难道不是人定胜天吗?任何事，应该我们努力、拼搏，而不是说一切听从命运的安排，不是吗?

现在的青少年，也应该从小树立远大的抱负，有战胜一切，追求梦想的决心。在陈涉那个年代，虽然反天子是大逆不道，但在我看来，这是他的远见卓识所在，一个有理想有抱负的人是不会看着国君昏庸无能而使国家就此衰落下去的。他凭借自己的勇敢与智慧得到了大家的认可，想陈涉从一小小的佣耕而一举成名，不就是因为他的抱负与反抗的决心吗?

现在，许多同学初中没有上完就出去打工，他们不知道，没有知识到外面是多么无助。我们现在应该好好学习，从小就有远大的抱负，有崇高的理想，而不是糊涂地过完一生。只要有目标，有追求，就一定会走向成功。陈涉佣耕时，也时时想着进取，盼着美好的明天。我们应该像他一样，从平凡中创出非凡的人生，用自己的胆量与智慧追求成功与幸福，只要我们有自强不息的精神，就一定会有赢来彩虹的那一天。

Before the festival comes, everyone will do some cleaning. That means they can sweep away the bad luck. They will decorate the doors and windows with paper cuts. That makes the house very beautiful. On the New Years Eve, everyone will get together and have a big meal. They wont go to bed until 12. On the New Years day, everyone will wish others "Happy New Year". Children can get lucky money. They will wear new clothes. The children are the happiest, because they can wear new clothes and get lucky money.

少时即有鸿鹄志，会天大雨是诱因。

天下苦秦也已久，失期法斩更不得。

而是原本小儿子，谋害扶苏失人心。

项燕楚将百姓怜，吾众诈称宜多应。

陈胜吴广计议定，卜者教其去念鬼。

丹书鱼腹树声誉，篝火狐鸣威众耳。

卒夜惊恐惟觉怪，陈胜为王已无争。

吴广平时有威信，趁将尉醉故欲亡。

尉果笞广以激众，陈胜佐广杀两尉。

召令徒属讲局势，王侯将相宁有种?

徒属皆曰敬受命，为坛而盟祭尉首。

袒右揭竿称大楚，攻下大泽向蕲冲。

乃令葛婴攻蕲东，一路向西到陈州。

车六七百骑千余，守丞战死据入陈。

三老豪杰会议事，功宜为王称陈王。

国号张楚立将军，吴广做副为都尉。

诸地闻之刑长吏，以应陈涉大起义。

桑丘带着他的主人堂·吉诃德和他的朋友们来到了现世。他为他的主人的疯疯颠颠深感头痛。听说，现世有人能够移植记忆，桑丘非常高兴，因为这一移植便可将其主人头脑中的关于古代侠士的记忆去除了。记忆移植手术非常顺利。

堂醒来了的第一句话是“我的电脑呢?快把我的秘书叫来……”桑丘呆呆地站在那里，因为他已经无法再认识这位新堂了。据了解，堂换的是电脑奇才比尔-盖茨的记忆。难怪堂是那样的现代呢!

桑丘带着他的新主人，有些懊丧地回到故园。堂不再去追赶那些羊群，也没有再去傻乎乎地与大风车搏斗，而是天天思考计算机的开发。听说堂回来了，朋友们都来看望他。新堂出来向他的朋友打招呼，这可把朋友们吓坏了。

看，堂穿的是什么呀!黑色的，带有明晃晃、亮晶晶的东西(其实那是扣子)，脚下不再是牛皮靴，是没有筒的鞋。人们呆住了。桑丘急忙出来向大家解释原因，大家更觉得不可思议。“现代人类怎么这么厉害!他们发明了什么电脑，还有什么英特网全球通，坐在家里便可以漫游世界，这会儿竟然把什么比尔的记忆移植到我们堂的头脑里来了……”接着便是人们的慨叹声，啧啧声。

新堂觉得很是光荣。他一字一顿地说：“各位，在以后的日子里，为适应全球信息化的需要，我建议大家去学电脑，我会免费教你们的……”刚说到这里，人群在一阵潮涌般哄笑声后，便散去了。新堂有些诧异，桑丘也有些懊丧。

新堂在以后的日子里，常常大发脾气，向桑丘要电脑软件，要秘书，要电脑资料……这使得桑丘感觉到比以前更加难过，更加头疼。桑丘左思右想，最后还是决定把比尔的记忆去掉，把原堂的记忆换回来。

黄尘古道，瘦马飞奔，一把长矛在空中乱摇。做了记忆复位移植的堂·吉诃德又回来了……

我喜欢的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的。

除夕的傍晚，我们几个小孩子在叔叔的带领下和姑父及爸爸一起到楼下放鞭炮。十二岁的表哥胆子大一些，他放的是散炮，不是那种整齐鞭炮。别看表妹灵灵才三岁多，自己不敢亲手放，但可爱看别人放炮啦!我们还没引着炮捻，她早已把耳朵捂好了，还不住地催着：“快放啊!怎么不点着呢?”你瞧，她比我们还急呢。

妈妈和姑姑、婶婶她们在厨房里张罗着弄饭菜，我们正玩的起劲时，姑姑在楼上叫我们吃饭了!我们这一大堆人马浩浩荡荡地向楼上进发……

吃完年夜饭，大人们把家里收拾完毕，中央电视台的春节联欢晚会就要开始了。哈哈，这里有我最喜欢的节目——小品。看到九点多钟的时候，灵灵嚷着她要睡觉。其实我也有点困乏了，奶奶便让我们各自回房休息了……

第二天早晨天一亮，我赶紧穿上妈妈给我买的新羽绒服，新鞋，从头到脚，甚至袜子都换上了崭新的。收拾好后，我们一家三口就往外婆家赶。一进门，我赶紧对外婆说“过年好”，外婆笑眯眯地递给我一个红包——里面肯定是压岁钱了!我收下红包转递给妈妈，让她帮我收好，回家后还我!

今年的春节我过的真高兴!

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：

Chinese New Year or Spring Festival is the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays. It is sometimes called the "Lunar New Year" by English speakers. The festival traditionally begins on the first day of the first month (Chinese: 正月; pinyin: zhēng yuè) in the Chinese calendar and ends on the 15th; this day is called Lantern Festival. Chinese New Years Eve is known as chú xī. It literally means "Year-pass Eve".

Chinese New Year is the longest and most important festivity in the Lunar Calendar. The origin of Chinese New Year is itself centuries old and gains significance because of several myths and traditions. Ancient Chinese New Year is a reflection on how the people behaved and what they believed in the most.

Celebrated in areas with large populations of ethnic Chinese, Chinese New Year is considered a major holiday for the Chinese and has had influence on the new year celebrations of its geographic neighbors, as well as cultures with whom the Chinese have had extensive interaction. These include Koreans (Seollal), Tibetans and Bhutanese (Losar), Mongolians (Tsagaan Sar), Vietnamese (T?t), and formerly the Japanese before 1873 (Oshogatsu). Outside of Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan, Chinese New Year is also celebrated in countries with significant Han Chinese populations, such as Singapore, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand. In countries such as Australia, Canada and the United States, although Chinese New Year is not an official holiday, many ethnic Chinese hold large celebrations and Australia Post, Canada Post, and the US Postal Service issues New Years themed stamps.

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 incoming 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.

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：春节正月习俗的英文介绍

The Chinese New Year celebrations are marked by visits to kin, relatives and friends, a practice known as "new-year visits" (Chinese: 拜年; pinyin: bài nián). New clothes are usually worn to signify a new year. The colour red is liberally used in all decorations. Red packets are given to juniors and children by the married and elders. See Symbolism below for more explanation.

On the days before the New Year celebration Chinese families give their home a thorough cleaning. There is a Cantonese saying "Wash away the dirt on ninyabaat" (年廿八，洗邋遢), but the practice is not usually restricted on ninyabaat (年廿八, the 28th day of month 12). It is believed the cleaning sweeps away the bad luck of the preceding year and makes their homes ready for good luck. Brooms and dust pans are put away on the first day so that luck cannot be swept away. Some people give their homes, doors and window-frames a new coat of red paint. homes are often decorated with paper cutouts of Chinese auspicious phrases and couplets. Purchasing new clothing, shoes, and receiving a hair-cut also symbolize a fresh start.

In many households where Buddhism or Taoism is prevalent, home altars and statues are cleaned thoroughly, and altars that were adorned with decorations from the previous year are also taken down and burned a week before the new year starts, and replaced with new decorations. Taoists (and Buddhists to a lesser extent) will also "send gods" (送神), an example would be burning a paper effigy of Zao Jun the Kitchen God, the recorder of family functions. This is done so that the Kitchen God can report to the Jade Emperor of the family households transgressions and good deeds. Families often offer sweet foods (such as candy) in order to "bribe" the deities into reporting good things about the family.

The biggest event of any Chinese New Years Eve is the dinner every family will have. A dish consisting of fish will appear on the tables of Chinese families. It is for display for the New Years Eve dinner. This meal is comparable to Christmas dinner in the West. In northern China, it is customary to make dumplings (jiaozi 饺子) after dinner and have it around midnight. Dumplings symbolize wealth because their shape is like a Chinese tael. By contrast, in the South, it is customary to make a new year cake (Niangao, 年糕) after dinner and send pieces of it as gifts to relatives and friends in the coming days of the new year. Niangao literally means increasingly prosperous year in year out. After the dinner, some families go to local temples, hours before the new year begins to pray for a prosperous new year by lighting the first incense of the year; however in modern practice, many households hold parties and even hold a countdown to the new lunar year. Beginning in the 1980s, the CCTV New Years Gala was broadcast four hours before the start of the New Year.

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：First day 初一

The first day is for the welcoming of the deities of the heavens and earth, officially beginning at midnight. Many people, especially Buddhists, abstain from meat consumption on the first day because it is believed that this will ensure longevity for them. Some consider lighting fires and using knives to be bad luck on New Years Day, so all food to be consumed is cooked the day before. For Buddhists, the first day is also the birthday of Maitreya Bodhisattva (better known as the more familiar Budai Luohan), the Buddha-to-be. People also abstain from killing animals.

Most importantly, the first day of Chinese New Year is a time when families visit the oldest and most senior members of their extended family, usually their parents, grandparents or great-grandparents.

Some families may invite a lion dance troupe as a symbolic ritual to usher in the Lunar New Year as well as to evict bad spirits from the premises. Members of the family who are married also give red packets containing cash to junior members of the family, mostly children and teenagers.

While fireworks and firecrackers are traditionally very popular, some regions have banned them due to concerns over fire hazards, which have resulted in increased number of fires around New Years and challenged municipal fire departments work capacity. For this reason, various city governments (e.g., Hong Kong, and Beijing, for a number of years) issued bans over fireworks and firecrackers in certain premises of the city. As a substitute, large-scale fireworks have been launched by governments in cities like Hong Kong to offer citizens the experience.

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：Second day 初二

The second day of the Chinese New Year is for married daughters to visit their birth parents. Traditionally, daughters who have been married may not have the opportunity to visit their birth families frequently.

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.

Business people of the Cantonese dialect group will hold a Hoi Nin prayer to start their business on the 2nd day of Chinese New Year. The prayer is done to pray that they will be blessed with good luck and prosperity in their business for the year.

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：Third and fourth days 初三

The third and fourth day of the Chinese New Year are generally accepted as inappropriate days to visit relatives and friends due to the following schools of thought. People may subscribe to one or both thoughts.

1) It is known as "chì kǒu" (赤口), meaning that it is easy to get into arguments. It is suggested that the cause could be the fried food and visiting during the first two days of the New Year celebration.[citation needed]

2) Families who had an immediate kin deceased in the past 3 years will not go house-visiting as a form of respect to the dead, but people may visit them on this day. Some people then conclude that it is inauspicious to do any house visiting at all. The third day of the New Year is allocated to grave-visiting instead.

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：Fifth day 初五

In northern China, people eat jiǎo zi (simplified Chinese: 饺子; traditional Chinese: 餃子), or dumplings on the morning of Po Wu (破五). This is also the birthday of the Chinese god of wealth. In Taiwan, businesses traditionally re-open on this day, accompanied by firecrackers.

This is a custom primarily among the overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia, such as Malaysia and Singapore. People get together to toss the colourful salad and make wishes for continued wealth and prosperity.

For many Chinese Buddhists, this is another day to avoid meat, the seventh day commemorating the birth of Sakra Devanam Indra.

The ninth day of the New Year is a day for Chinese to offer prayers to the Jade Emperor of Heaven (天宮) in the Taoist Pantheon. The ninth day is traditionally the birthday of the Jade Emperor. This day is especially important to Hokkiens. Come midnight of the eighth day of the new year, Hokkiens will offer thanks giving prayers to the Emperor of Heaven. Offerings will include sugarcane as it was the sugarcane that had protected the Hokkiens from certain extermination generations ago. Incense, tea, fruit, vegetarian food or roast pig, and paper gold is served as a customary protocol for paying respect to an honored person.

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：Thirteenth day 正月十三

On the 13th day people will eat pure vegetarian food to clean out their stomach due to consuming too much food over the last two weeks.

This day is dedicated to the General Guan Yu, also known as the Chinese God of War. Guan Yu was born in the Han dynasty and is considered the greatest general in Chinese history. He represents loyalty, strength, truth, and justice. According to history, he was tricked by the enemy and was beheaded.

Almost every organization and business in China will pray to Guan Yu on this day. Before his life ended, Guan Yu had won over one hundred battles and that is a goal that all businesses in China want to accomplish. In a way, people look at him as the God of Wealth or the God of Success.

Rice dumplings tangyuan (simplified Chinese: 汤圆; traditional Chinese: 湯圓; pinyin: tāngyuán), a sweet glutinous rice ball brewed in a soup, is eaten this day. Candles are lit outside houses as a way to guide wayward spirits home. This day is celebrated as the Lantern Festival, and families walk the street carrying lighted lanterns.

This day often marks the end of the Chinese New Year festivities.

In China, Spring Festival is the biggest day. People will come back home

and enjoy spending some time with their families. So no matter how far they are,

they will figure out all the ways to come back home and get reunited. The house

cleaning work before the coming of this big day always brings me the happy

memory. We can find something lost a long time ago in the corner. It is like the

surprise and makes me feel so excited. On the New Year’s Eve, all of my families

will sit together and enjoy the real big meal. We share our happiness and the

future expectation. What a nice moment.

Every year, when the Spring Festival comes, which is the biggest festival in China, Chinese people from all over the world will come back to their hometown and spend the day together. For me, as I grow up, I am not that excited about spring festival as I was a kid did. But it is true that this day let people stay together no matter how busy and how far they are. I barely have chances to see my relatives, but in Spring Festival, we will have dinner and talk the whole night. It is such a great moment for us to cherish. The meaning of Spring Festival is important for everyone.

每年，中国最大的节日春节到来的时候，来自世界各地的华人都会回到家乡，一起度过这一天。对我来说，长大之后我对春节就不像小时候那样兴奋了。但是春节确实会让大家都聚在一起，不管有多忙，多远。我很少有机会见得到我的亲戚，但我们会在春节一起吃晚饭，聊天聊上一整晚。这是一个值得我们珍惜的伟大时刻。春节的意义对每个人来说都是重要的。

My Sheep year Spring Festival is special. My uncle and my aunt came back from Shanghai. My family  were very happy to keep the Spring Festival with them. And it was the most exciting festival of all the festivals.

On New Year’s Eve, my father and my uncle talked about their work together. My mum did some cooking with my aunt Grandparents and I watched the New Year TV programmes. At about six o’clock, we had a special family dinner. We all thought the dumplings were delicious.

On the first day of the New Year, we visited our relatives. In the afternoon, we went shopping in Jiefanf Road. My uncle bought some Jay’s CDs. He likes Jay’s music very much. There were so many people on the road. It was more alive than any other time of a year.

On the second and the third days, we spent a wonderful weekend in the country. There were much bigger trees than in the city. And the animals were more beautiful than in the city. We all enjoyed ourselves.

Spring Festival is the most important festival for Chinese people. The Spring Festival is very exciting, especially on the eve of the Spring Festival.

春节对于中国人来说是最重要的节日。在每年的春节都让人兴高采烈，尤其是大年三十那晚，更是达到了高潮。

The Spring Festival lasts for 15 days, there would be starting on the first day, to the end of the January 15 Lantern Festival.it is the busiest time of the year for Chinese people. The arrangements they have to make for family reunions， buying necessities and preparing food keeps them busy throughout the holiday. Many of them travel back home and meet friends over dinner and drinks. The celebrations include decorating the house and setting off fireworks.But we are talking about a tradition that seems to be fading.

春节一共有15天，从大年初一开始，到元月十五元宵节这一天结束。在这段比较长的时间是中国人最忙的时候，他们为家庭聚会作安排，采购年货，准备丰盛的食物，以至于整个春节假期都忙忙碌碌的。许多人在春季期间都要回老家过年，跟朋友碰碰头，聚个餐。庆祝春节也包括大扫除和放烟火。但是我们现在要谈的是越来越淡的年味。

Spring Festival， as it is celebrated today， has undergone many changes， thanks to the country‘s economic development and globalization.

现在的春节已经因为我国经济的发展和全球化的影响而改变了很多。

Yet no Spring Festival is complete without food. People could not get good food whenever they desired in earlier times， something that does not apply to society today. More often than not， people faced the risk of famine. The best time for people to celebrate was when food was available in plenty， and that was possible in spring， or the beginning of the lunar new year. That was the main reason why Spring Festival acquired such great importance among Chinese people.

但是没有哪个春节是完全离得开“吃”的。从前，不论人们提前多久想要买年货，总是不能如愿，而现在早已今非昔比。过去常常还要闹饥荒。人们最好的庆祝时间就是他们能得到食物丰盛的时候，也就是春天或是元月初的那段时间。那也是为什么春节对于中国人如此重要的主要原因。

But three decades of economic growth has ensured that people in China， except for those who are still poor， can enjoy a good meal whenever they want. Such has been the change in people‘s fortune that some have to be treated for obesity and other health problems associated with excessive eating.

但是三十年来的经济发展已经让中国人，除了那些仍然穷苦的人以外，随时都能享受美食。这得益于人民财富的增长，但是后者也导致一些人吃得太多而受到肥胖威胁和健康问题。

In the past， celebrations were limited to events like song-and-dance duets in North China， dragon/lion dances in South China and fireworks， which required the joint efforts of the entire community. But economic development and urbanization seems to have weakened the social links among people. Many， especially those living in cities， are not interested in celebrating the festival with people they hardly know.

在过去，庆祝春节还只停留在北方的二人转和南方的舞龙舞狮等形式。那些庆祝活动往往需要许多人合力才能办得起来。但是经济的发展和国际化程度的提升似乎已经将这种社会联系弱化了。许多人，特别是城市居民，不太愿意与不相识的人一起共度春节。

Many customs associated with Spring Festival have changed， too. In the past， people used to visit relatives and friends with gifts and lots of good wishes. Today， many people， especially the youth， use their cell phones or the Internet to send their good wishes and even "gifts" to their relatives and friends. Some may say this a sign that people have become less caring about their near and dear ones， but we should see this development as a time- and energy-saving exercise granted by the information age.

与春节相关的许多习俗也被改变了。在过去，人们常常会带着礼物走亲访友，互道祝福。今天许多人，特别是年轻人，用手机或是网络向亲朋好友发去“礼物”和祝福。有些人或许会说，这说明人们已经没有那么关心至爱亲朋了，但是我们应该把这种变化看作信息化时代省钱省力的好办法。

In recent times， many people have started praying for a career promotion or more money instead of invoking God or the Buddha for a healthy and long life and the welfare of their family. But the number of such people is decreasing now， which shows that people are becoming more reasonable.

最近几年，许多人开始祈祷事业高升，财源滚滚，而不是求神拜佛，他们身体健康，长命百岁，家庭美满。但是这样的人数现在正在减少，说明人们开始变得更加理性。

正月初三，阳光明媚。爸爸带着我们一起去北门广场观看春节文艺演出。

At the beginning of the month three, the sun is bright. Dad took us to the North Gate Square to watch the spring festival performance.

一到那里，演出已经开始了。我们的脚底像装了马达似的跑向拥挤的人群，坐在座位上全神贯注地看了起来。节目可精彩了，有悠扬的歌声，令人陶醉其中，有优美的舞姿，令人赞不绝口，有滑稽有趣的小品，令人捧腹大笑，还有一群群活泼可爱的小朋友表演的惟妙惟肖，台下鼓起了一阵阵热烈的掌声。

As soon as there was there, the performance had begun. The bottom of our feet, like a motor, ran toward the crowds, sitting in their seats and looking at them. The program can be wonderful, with melodious songs, intoxicated with the beautiful dance, full of praise, a funny comedy, hilarious, and small groups of friends lively show vivid, under his warm applause.

时间就像小马车一样“笃笃笃”地开过去，春节文艺演出结束了。我们就去广场的对面玩沙子了，那里有很多小朋友，他们有的用铲子，有的用罐子，还有的用推车，玩得可开心了。

Time is like a pony car "Du Du Du" opened in the past, the spring festival performances ended. We went to the opposite side of the square to play sand. There were many children. Some of them had fun using shovels, some cans and carts.

天色渐渐地暗下来了，我们依依不舍地离开了广场。

It was getting dark down, we left the square to reluctant to part.

My parents are very strict.Because I have so many family rules.For example,i cant go out with my friends at school nights.On weekends,i have to go home before nine p.m.Its strict,but i think its necessary.And i must finish my homework in time.I cant play computer games.I have to wash clothes by myself.I have to get up at six oclock every morning.And i have to be in bed by ten oclock.Thanks to these rules.I can live health.But i think to be in bed by ten oclock is unfair!Students need nine hours sleep!And I think play some computer games is not badly.So I think the family rules can make some change.

我的父母都是非常严格的。因为我有如此多的家庭规则。例如，我不能去我的朋友在上学的晚上。在周末，我回家之前，九点左右才是严格的，但我认为这是必要的。和我必须完成我的功课的时间。我不能玩电脑游戏。我要自己洗衣服。我不得不在每天早上六点起床。我必须在十点clock.thanks在床上这些规则。我可以活得健康。但我想在十点上床睡觉是不公平的!学生需要九小时的睡眠!我想玩一些电脑游戏不好。所以我认为家庭规则可以作出一些改变。

For example:Go home at night not later than eight points.

例如：晚上回家不晚于八点。

You must be very want to ask why I wanted to celebrate the Spring Festival? Because, in the Spring Festival, every household will buy firecrackers to celebrate, and, in the Spring Festival evening, still have a wonderful Spring Festival evening party!

The Spring Festival not only has excellent performances of the party, and there is every household story! Dont mention how wonderful.

The Spring Festival in the morning, I said to my grandfather: "grandpa, grandpa, lets go to buy firecrackers, today but the Spring Festival!" "Good, good! What do you want that firecrackers?" "Im going to rockets..." Anyway, I dont have sound. "Line, grandpa went to buy you this."

In the evening, I go downstairs and set off firecrackers with grandpas grandmother mom and dad, Im so happy! The grandpas grandmother mom and dad said: "grandpas grandmother mom and dad: happy Spring Festival!"

About half past seven, we began to put the rockets went back to home, start, I dare not to put, then, slowly I think rockets is not terrible, was put up. After the rockets fly in the sky, like a colorful flower, fell down. At eight o clock in the evening, we watched the Spring Festival evening show again, really wonderful!

My friends, do you like Spring Festival?

This is what I want to have holiday.

你们一定很想问我为什么想过春节吧?因为，在春节里，每家每户都会买鞭炮来庆祝，而且，在春节的晚上，还有精彩的春节晚会呢!

春节不仅有精彩的晚会表演，而且有每家每户发生的故事呢!别提有多精彩了。

春节早上，我对爷爷说：“爷爷，爷爷，我们去买鞭炮吧,今天可是春节呀!”“好，好!那你要什么鞭炮?”“我要冲天炮……”反正我不要有响声的泡。“行，爷爷这就给你买去。”

到了晚上，我和爷爷奶奶爸爸妈妈一起下楼放鞭炮，我开心极了!对爷爷奶奶爸爸妈妈说:“爷爷奶奶爸爸妈妈：春节快乐!”

大约7点半，我们又回到家里开始放冲天炮，开始，我不敢放，后来，慢慢地我觉得放冲天炮也不是很可怕，便放了起来。放完的冲天炮飞上天空，像一朵五彩的花，撒落下来。晚上八点，我们又看了春节晚会表演，真精彩呀!

朋友们，你们喜欢过春节了吗?

这就是我最想过的节日。

Spring Festival

春节

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 programs.

春节对中国人来说非常重要。在过去，人们往往没有肉，大米或其他美味的食物吃。他们通常只能在春节吃到这些。所以每年他们都希望春节可以快点来。现在，虽然人们的生活好多了，我们每天都可以吃美味的食物。人们仍然喜欢的春节。因为大多数人可以有一个很长的假期，我们可以自由地去旅行或拜访我们的朋友或与我们的家人聚会。晚上，我们可以在餐厅大吃一顿，或与家人留在家里看电视节目。

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

我非常喜欢春节。春节是多么的美妙啊！

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.?

The ninth day is to make offerings to the Jade Emperor.?

The 10th through the 12th are days that friends and relatives should be invited for dinner. After so much rich food, on the 13th day you should have simple rice congee and mustard greens (choi sum) to cleanse the system.

Looking forward to! Looking forward to! Finally hope to celebrate the Spring Festival. The Spring Festival people have to set off firecrackers, and stick couplets on the Spring Festival, eat family reunion dinner, to the New Years money, watch Spring Festival gala.

We ate the family reunion dinner, the family reunion dinner eats reunion and happiness. Reunion dinner! I quickly ran to the table a look, wow! "Delicacies"! Have a sweet and delicious chicken, is a symbol of the reunion of yuanxiao, is a symbol of the year for fish, and rice cakes symbolize the stripes. We toasts, tell oneself the wishes and desires of the heart.

After the meal, we cant wait to open the TV to see the Spring Festival gala. People with melon seeds, while gossip. Spring Festival gala show is wonderful! A thrilling acrobatics, magic, let a person produce curiosity have laugh and then ponder the sketch, and graceful dance. See I was ecstasy!

Of course the most attract me or set off firecrackers. Watching the Spring Festival gala, we were attracted by "colorful world" outside, my sister and I a downstairs also set off firecrackers. Just go on, dad took us to buy that took out a string of firecrackers, with lighter lit fireworks, listen to "bang", a small ball of fire for the day, "pa" little fireball exploded in the air, flying the Martian sky colorful ornament. See here, we danced cheered, everyone is immersed in a piece of laughter.

On New Years eve, really makes me unforgettable! I will remember this beautiful moment!

盼啊!盼啊!终于盼到过春节了。过春节大家都要放鞭炮、贴春联、吃团圆饭、给压岁钱、看春晚。

我们先吃团圆饭，团圆饭吃的是团圆、幸福。吃团圆饭了!我急忙跑到饭桌上一看，哇!“山珍海味”啊!有香甜可口的鸡肉，有象征着团圆的元宵，有象征着年年有余的鱼，还有象征着步步高升的年糕。我们举杯畅饮，说出自己心里的祝福和愿望。

酒足饭饱以后，我们迫不及待的打开电视来看春晚。大家一边嗑着瓜子，一边说着闲话。春晚的节目真精彩!有惊心动魄的杂技，有让人产生好奇心的魔术，有发笑后又令人深思的小品，还有优美的舞蹈。看得我都入迷了!

当然最吸引我的还是放鞭炮。看完春晚，我们被外面“五彩缤纷的世界”吸引住了，我和妹妹一家也下楼放鞭炮了。刚下去，爸爸就把我们买的那一大串鞭炮拿了出来，用打火机点着烟花的导火线，只听“砰”的一声，一个小火球直冲上天，“啪”小火球在空中炸开了，飞散的火星点缀得天空绚丽多彩。看到这里，我们手舞足蹈欢呼起来，大家都沉浸在一片欢笑声中。

除夕之夜，真令我难忘!我一定会记住这美好的时刻!

The Spring Festival is a big and grand festival, the Spring Festival represents the peace, happiness and reunion. I like the Spring Festival, because you can set off firecrackers, and wear new clothes, get lucky money.

I put a lot of firecrackers, Spring Festival is "ZuanTianHou", "ZuanTianHou" fly to the sky, making sound, very nice. The second is the "big tanks", like real tanks rushed past, open to a half stopped, colorful light, beautiful! The third set is butterfly fireworks, firecrackers butterfly a fire like a rocket flying, fly far away. The fourth is cherry bomb, cherry bomb was thrown to the ground, one step also ring with their feet.

I like Spring Festival very much, want to wish every day is the Spring Festival!

春节是一个重大和隆重的节日，春节代表着平安、幸福、团圆。我最喜欢过春节，因为可以放鞭炮，穿新衣服，得到压岁钱。

春节前一天是除夕，大家高高兴兴地在自己家门前贴春联，在厨房包饺子，吃饭前要放鞭炮。

春节我放了很多很多的鞭炮，有“钻天猴”，“钻天猴”一放马上飞到天上，发出啪啪的声音，非常好听。第二个放的是“大坦克”，像真的坦克一样冲了过去，开到一半就停了下来，发出五颜六色的光芒，美丽极了!第三个放的是蝴蝶花炮，蝴蝶花炮一点火就像火箭一样飞了出去，飞的很远很远。第四个放的是摔炮，摔炮向地上一扔就响，用脚一踩也响。

我非常喜欢过春节，要天天都是春节那该多好呀!
