The Spring Festival is my most favorite festival, because it’s time for

family gathering. And the Spring Festival is a new start of a year. It brings me

hope and courage. On Spring Festival, my parents usually take me back to my

hometown. My hometown is a small town. Many of my relatives move to the larger

cities, but we usually go home when the Spring Festival comes. During the

gathering, we share our lives with others and care about each other. Of course,

big meals are necessary. Families prepare for the big meals together. They all

cook their specialty dishes. Therefore, our meals are always delicious. We often

stay at home for three days and then we leave with others’ wishes. I like the

Spring Festival, because I like family gathering.

从此，人们每年春节都要放鞭炮，贴对联……

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.

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.

中央电视台春节联欢晚会简称为央视春晚，或直接称为春晚。顾名思义，是在每年除夕之夜为了庆祝新年而开办的。从1983年开办至今，是中国规模最大，最受关注，收视率最高，影响力最大的综艺性晚会。以下是小编带来的2017关于春节看春晚的英语作文，希望对你有帮助。

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.

在中国,凡逢春节和其他的喜庆日子,人们总要燃放爆竹来表示庆贺.燃放爆竹可以说是中国民间一个十分重要的风俗习惯.

爆竹也叫"炮竹","爆仗","炮仗",平常人们更习惯叫"鞭炮",有大约2000多年的历史了.最早的爆竹叫"庭燎".是用竹竿一类的东西做成火炬,燃烧时发出噼噼啪啪的爆裂声,也叫"爆竿.

燃放爆竹风俗最早起因于驱鬼除邪,祈求一年的吉祥顺利.传说,有个叫做"山臊"的四角怪兽和恶鬼平常藏在深山,每隔365天便出来伤害人畜.这些无恶不做的坏东西害怕爆炸的声音和亮光.于是,每到岁末年首,人们就争着燃放鞭炮,用来驱赶"山臊"和恶鬼.

中国的唐代发明火药以后,人们便把火药放进竹筒,点燃后发出巨大的声音,这种爆竹叫做"爆竹筒".到了宋代,爆竹的制作方法改为把火药装进用纸卷成的筒里,名字也叫爆竹了.后来人们开始把许多小的炮仗用药线连接起来,成为"一发连百余响不绝"的鞭炮.讲究的鞭炮用红颜色的纸制作,鞭炮爆炸后,红屑满地,人称"满地红",表示吉利.随着发展,鞭炮的品种和色彩也由原来的单调发展得丰富多彩,有小鞭炮,电光雷,母子雷,射天炮,百头,千头鞭,甚至还有几万头长的鞭炮.

现在,随着人们环保意识的加强,燃放鞭炮的习俗在中国很多大城市中受到禁止.但是,聪明的中国人依然想出了其他热闹的庆祝节日的办法.

春节是中国最隆重的节日，过了春节，就意味着新的一年开始了，就意味着我们又长了一岁，就意味着我们应该更懂事一些了。在春节这天，到处都是喜气洋洋的，人人嘴边都会挂着一丝微笑。

大年三十的晚上，街上最为热闹，到处张灯结彩，小孩子嘴里叼着糖块，在街上放着各式各样的烟花，偶尔也会有几个大人们放起了爆竹，有的孩子欢呼起来，有的孩子索性用手捂住耳朵，还有更小的孩子则吓得跑回了家。

这年春节，和往常有些不一样，妈妈帮我张罗了一桌丰盛的佳肴，邀请了几个最要好的朋友来我家吃饺子，妈妈包饺子时还在八个饺子里放了硬币，说谁吃到了硬币饺子谁今年就有好运，结果我和妈妈还有一个小朋友各吃到了二个带着硬币的饺子。

春晚结束后，妈妈拿来了一大瓶饮料，和我们做猜迷语游戏，方法是由妈妈出迷语，我和几个小朋友轮流猜，猜对的奖励一小杯饮料，猜不出或猜错的不但没有饮料喝，还要表演一个小节目。

时间在钟表的嘀哒声中过去了，半小时后，饮料解决完毕，我和小朋友们个个都坐在椅子上，不停地打着饱嗝，有的还不停地上厕所。

休息了一会儿，玩的兴头又上来了，大家拿起烟花就往外跑，开始和外面的大人小孩放了起来，我也不甘落后，去年买的两百元烟花还剩下不少呢。没过多久，装着满满的烟花的袋子就空了肚子。

“天下没有不散的宴席”，朋友们在爆竹声和欢笑声中告别了。

大家走后，妈妈又开始忙着收拾碗筷，我也过来帮妈妈的忙。虽然妈妈说不用我，可我还是帮妈妈收拾完才休息。

年夜饭吃完了，春节也过了，新的一年就开始了，我长大了一岁，也变得更懂事了，新的一年里，我要好好学习，以优异的成绩回报妈妈对我的爱。

There are a lot of valid, rich and colorful legends about the origin of the Lunar New Year. They can be traced to thousands of years ago, among which the most famous one is the legend of Monster Nian. Monster Nian was a cruel wild animal. Ancient people believed that Monster Nian would come out to eat people on New Year’s Eve. It was said that Monster Nian was afraid of red, fire and noise. In order to repel it, people would put the red notes on doors and keep the torch alight all night as well as set off firecrackers. Early next morning, people greeted each other. The air was filled with the victory and the rebirth joy.

When you ask the people around you, what is the most important festival in China, I think ninety-nine percent will say the same answer, that is the Spring Festival. About the origin of the Spring Festival, there is a old story. One is called "year" beast, will attack people from time to time. To ward off beasts years, people have to the last day of the old set off firecrackers and pasted red paper on the front door and window. Fortunately, the year for fear of the sound of firecrackers, and red stickers, dare not to come again. In order to commemorate the day, our ancestors put on the first day of the lunar New Year as the "Spring Festival".

During the Spring Festival, all the family members gather together for dinner on New Years eve night. Apple, fish, noodles, dumplings, pork, chicken, candy is an essential part of the table. "Fish" represents "more than" year after year; "Apple" herald "do things go in peace, the smooth". "Noodles" said "healthy life", as for the other, said will you have a good luck in the New Year.

The most happy children is the Spring Festival. Not only because they are more than a lot of friend, they can also get a red envelope. A red envelope, they can do anything you want to do: set off firecrackers, buy new clothes, buy everything you want. The best place for children, this is the Spring Festival, isnt it?

Not only means the beginning of the New Year the Spring Festival, is also carrying people wish for New Year. We hope the New Year wish will come true, life for the better. Anyway, the Spring Festival is the most meaningful family reunion, we spent together with family, this is the whole of the Spring Festival.

当你问周围的人，什么是中国最重要的节日，我想百分之九十九的人会说出同一个答案，那就是春节。关于春节的由来，还有个古老的故事。一个叫“年”的猛兽，会时不时的袭击人们。为了赶跑猛兽年，人们不得不在旧年的最后一天放鞭炮，在正门和窗户上贴上红纸。幸运的是，年因为害怕鞭炮的响声和红色的贴纸，不敢再来了。为了纪念这一天，我们的老祖宗把新年农历的第一天定为“春节”。

在春节期间，所有的家庭成员都在除夕的晚上会聚集在一起吃年夜饭。鱼、苹果、面条、饺子、猪肉、鸡肉、糖果是餐桌上必不可少的。“鱼”代表着“年年有余”;“苹果”预示着“做事情平平安安，顺顺利利”;“面条”表示“健康长寿”，至于其他的，表示新年会甜甜蜜蜜有好运气。

小孩子是春节中最高兴的。不仅仅是因为他们多了很多小伙伴，他们还能拿到红包。有了红包，他们可以做任何想做的事情：放鞭炮，买新衣服，买一切想要的东西。对小孩子来说，这就是春节最好的地方了，难道不是吗?

春节不仅仅意味着新年的开始，也承载着人们对新年的祝愿。我们希望新的一年愿望会实现，生活变得更好。不管怎么样，春节最有意义的就是阖家团圆，我们与家人一起度过，这就是春节的全部。

To tell you the truth, I dont like the Spring Festival at all. When I was young I liked it very much,because I could had something tasty to eat during the Spring Festival,and I could enjoy very wonderful TV programmes,too,I also could had much free time during which I could did something I liked to do. I dont like it now, there are many reasons.

Firstly, I cant have a good time during the Festival. Every New Years Eve something unpleasant often happens. Once I quarreled with my second brother.

Secondly, I cant relax myself during the Festival. I have to do many things, watch so many TV programmes, meet so many people,all these things make me very tired.

Thirdly, spending one Spring Festival means that I become one year older, I dont like to be old. I want to live longer and be young all the time.

实话告诉你,我不喜欢春节。当我年轻的时候我非常喜欢它,因为我可以有美味的吃在春节期间,我可以享受非常精彩的电视节目,同样,我也可以有太多的时间在此期间,我可以做一些我喜欢做的事情。我现在不喜欢它,原因有很多。

首先,我不能有一个好的时间在节日期间。每个新年前夕的一些不愉快的经常发生。有一次我和我的第二个哥哥吵了一架。

其次,在春节期间我无法放松自己。我要做很多事情,看太多的电视节目,满足不了这么多人,所有这些事情让我很累。

第三,度过了一个春节意味着我长大了一岁,我不喜欢老。我想活得更长,是年轻的。
