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.

过年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。他们通常只能在过年吃到这些。所以每年他们都希望过年可以快点来。现在，虽然人们的生活好多了，我和家人每天都可以吃美味的食物。人们仍然喜欢的过年。因为大多数人可以有一个很长的假期，我和家人可以自由地去旅行或拜访我和家人的朋友或与我和家人的家人聚会。晚上，我和家人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！

我非常喜欢过年。过年是多么的美妙啊！

Chinese New Year! Every place has different customs, and each has its own characteristics. I had the opportunity to back to my home in chongqing this year New Years day, let me introduce you to the Spring Festival customs of tujia.

New Years eve at noon, I saw my grandma cooked a lot of rice, just curious to ask: why want to cook so much rice, we also cant eat a meal? Grandmother replied: "want to cook some more, todays day cant cook fresh rice again. For tujia people seldom eat fish, so be about to cook more, it is also called more every year."

New Years eve afternoon, grandpa and father stick couplets, I also coincided with in the past. East, west to see see. When my father asked me: "do you know why do we need to stick couplets?" I answered: "know a little bit, festive bai." "Also right, couplet to express the good wish of people to pray for good fortune in the New Year. Now we stick couplets, cannot go toward outside throwing things, even cant throw rubbish, until annual lunar calendar to throw things. This means that circle the goods at home." Dad went on to say that.

On the evening of New Years eve, the home of the elder led the family to "worship the mountain ancestor worship". On the front of ancestors grave red candle and incense, placed offerings, to miss to ancestors. This also is respect for them.

These are the Spring Festival customs of tujia, I know you think its interesting.

过年啦!每个地方都有不同的习俗，并且都各具特色。今年我有幸回趟老家重庆过年，就让我给大家介绍一下土家族的春节习俗吧。

除夕的中午，我见奶奶煮了好多饭，就好奇的上前去询问：为什么要煮这么多饭，我们一顿也吃不了呀?奶奶回答道：“今天要多煮一些，大年初一可不能再煮新鲜饭。因为土家族人很少吃鱼，所以就要多煮饭，这也叫‘年年有余’吧。”

除夕的下午，爷爷和爸爸一起贴对联，我也过去凑热闹。东看看，西瞧瞧。这时爸爸问我：“你知道我们为什么要贴对联吗?”我回答：“知道一点点，喜庆呗。”“也对吧，对联是为了表达人们祈求新年福运的美好心愿。现在我们贴好了对联，就不能往外扔东西了，连垃圾也不能扔，一直要到大年初二才可以扔东西。这样就表示把财圈在家里了。”爸爸接着说。

除夕的傍晚，由家里的最长者带领全家去“拜山祭祖”。在先辈的坟前点上红烛和香，摆上祭品，以表对先辈的怀念。这也是对他们的尊敬。

这些就是我了解的土家人的春节习俗，你觉得有趣吧。

Strictly speaking, the Spring Festival starts every year in the early days of the 12th lunar month and will last till the mid 1st lunar month of the next year. Of them, the most important days are Spring Festival Eve and the first three days. The Chinese government now stipulates people have seven days off for the Chinese Lunar New Year.

Many customs accompany the Spring Festival. Some are still followed today, but others have weakened.

On the 8th day of the 12th lunar month, many families make laba porridge, a delicious kind of porridge made with glutinous rice, millet, seeds of Jobs tears, jujube berries, lotus seeds, beans, longan and gingko.

The 23rd day of the 12th lunar month is called Preliminary Eve. At this time, people offer sacrifice to the kitchen god. Now however, most families make delicious food to enjoy themselves.

春节即将来临了，我知道大家一定非常喜欢过春节。因为大家可以贴春联、看春节联欢晚会、走亲访友……

记得去年春节快来临时，我在家里学写对联，我站在一旁看大人们写对联，只见他们手拿一支毛笔，在墨水里蘸了蘸，然后就在红纸上写了几个大字。具体内容我已记不清了。那一幅对联写得非常工整，我见了就对伯父说：“能教我写对联吗?”我清楚地记得伯父问：“你会用毛笔吗?你知道应该怎样写对联吗?”我摇了摇头说：“不会。”于是他又说：“你今年又长大了一岁，居然连毛笔都还不会使用，趁着这个机会，我就教你几招吧。”听了伯父的话，我高兴地跳了起来。伯父告诉我，写字时身子要坐直，不要趴在桌子上。然后又详细地告诉我应该怎样使用毛笔。听了伯父的一番话，我终于学会了使用毛笔的一些最为基本的方法。接着伯父又让我写了几个字给他看看。我写了五个字：“我最爱中国”。写得歪歪扭扭，大概是刚使用毛笔吧!伯父见了笑了笑：“字倒是写得不错，就是笔画不直。”于是伯父又教导我：“写每个字时并不是要用同样的力量，在写每个字时，用的力量要有轻重变化，这样写出来的字就更有变化，看起来也更美观。伯父说完还示范地写了几个字让我模仿。看着伯父写的字，就是挺舒服。我照着伯父的样子试着写了几个字，还真有进步，比刚才写的看上去要好多了，我开心极了。伯父还告诉我，写字要经常训练，多去模仿名贴。写得多了，字就越写越好看。

在这个春节，我初步学了点写毛笔字的技巧，真是比得了压岁钱还更高兴，还更实惠。

Will Christmas Replace the Spring Festival?

Christmas arouses increasing attention year by year in China. Christmas cards become popular with students. People hold Christmas parties and exchange Christmas girts. A lot or TV and radio programs about Christmas are on. Meanwhile the Spring Festival is less appealing (有吸引力的)to youngsters. Thus some people wonder whether Christmas will replace the Spring Festival.

This worry is fairly unnecessary. Why ? One reason lies that Christmas only affects Christians，college students and joint-venture (合资企业)workers. Another reason is that Christmas is mostly celebrated in cities. Few people in countryside show extreme interest in this exotic(带有异国情调的) festival. By contrast，the Spring Festival is the most influential traditional festival in every family.

I think，it is natural that with increasing exchanges with the West，a lot of Western holidays have been gradually introduced into China. For us Chinese we should never neglect or even discard our own traditional festivals. For centuries Chinese have observed this traditional holiday to welcome the beginning of a new year. And we will treasure the Spring Festival forever.

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.

春节是我最喜欢的节日，因为它是家人团聚的日子。春节也是一年中新的开始，它带给我希望和勇气。在春节这一天，我父母经常带我回老家。我的老家是一个小镇。我很多亲戚都搬到大城市去了，但是春节的时候我们经常回老家。团聚之时，我们相互分享各自的生活，互相关心。当然，大餐是少不了的。全家人一起准备丰盛的晚餐。他们都煮自己擅长的菜。所以，我们的晚餐总是很美味。我们通常在家一起待上三天，然后带着各自的祝福离开。我喜欢春节，因为我喜欢家人团聚。

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.

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

Spring Festivals Eve is the last night in the last month of lunar calendar next to Spring Festival Day，the First Day of New Year. Chuxi，the Chinese name of Spring Festivals Eve，means the old year past and we will greet the new by the turn of year. During all festival，the activities or celebrations focus on praying for Good Fortunes and getting rid of Bad Fortunes.

In ancient Chinas Zhou and Qin Dynasty，when it came to Lunar New Year，Royal Palace would have a ritual named Danuo，to drive away ghost and bad luck of illness and disaster，it was also called "Zhuchu(to drive away)". People called the day before Spring Festivals Eve Before-Years Night，so the Spring Festivals Eve constantly is Years Night.

The Spring Festivals Eve is a most lingered night. In this warm eve，when night coming，youngsters handle a stick of incense(香)to ignite(点燃) the firecrackers，a child plugs up his ear by one hand and leans to ignite the fireworks by another，other children cover their ears aside to wait fireworks happy bang impatiently. Although some senior citizens are old， they still could remember what a beautiful spring festival they had in their childhood.

To have a family super，make sacrifice and stay up a whole night for greeting new years coming are the main three activities in the Spring Festival Eve.

The Spring Festival is our traditional festival, people called the Spring Festival, Chinese New Year. In my hometown of chaozhou, there are some special New Year customs.

Before the New Years eve, people are busy with four things: thank god, stock to do next, and to buy necessities. Tide vulgar, a year after the winter solstice, home to thank god. "Red peach hair next" material. Is rice and glutinous rice soak in water for a few hours, respectively, to make rice quality pine hydrophobic, remove dry stone mortar into fine powder, after dry. This is to be "red peach method next" main ingredient. Sweep up to choose an auspicious day, is an unusual thing. The Japanese, and are most busy housewives, clean up the inside and out of the room, for some years to use less cleaning.

December 24, is the period of the legendary "heaven god". Day, every family to worship "sugar peach". A square red paper, with jelly into a peach shape, become "peach". It touch live "sovereign" du mouth, let its "some god that speaks well of us fall to the ground. Chinese New Year to worship the "Sir", also is the god. The sacrifices of god are three: "red peach hair next", "the mouse shell next", "vegetable next". "Red peach hair next" is to use green beans to shell, then grinding beans into powder, and then steamed, do next filling. "Carrots next turnip cake."

On the afternoon of New Years day ancestor worship, to New Years eve. Chinese New Year, the home grown a big income, to send "lucky money" to their elders, elders to underage young players to "lucky money", so, every family, cherish the virtues of young embodies the respect for the elderly.

In the first month, chaoshan region have blessing of gods activity, is the temple of god carried to the street parade, people set off firecrackers, burning incense, the blessing. This is chaozhou custom of Spring Festival.

春节是我国的传统节日，人们把春节叫做过年。在我的家乡潮州，过年就有一些特别的风俗。

在除夕之前，人们都要忙着四件事：谢神、备料做粿、扫舍和买年货。潮俗，每年冬至过后，家里要谢神。备料做“红桃发粿”。是将大米和糯米分别浸于水中几小时，使米质松疏，捞干后于石臼中打成细粉，晒干。这就是做“红桃法粿”的主料。扫舍要选择吉日，是一件不寻常的事。是日，各家主妇最忙，把屋子的里里外外打扫干净，对一些长年少用之物都要清洗。

十二月二十四日，就是传说中的“神上天”之期。是日，家家户户都要拜“糖桃”。一方红纸，上面用软糖摆成一粒桃子的形态，成为“糖桃”。此物沾住“杜王爷”的嘴，让其“上天说好话，落地保平安”。过年还要拜“老爷”，也就是祭神。祭神的祭品有三样：“红桃发粿”、“鼠壳粿”、“菜头粿”。“红桃发粿”就是用绿豆去壳，然后把豆磨成粉，接着蒸熟，做粿馅料。“菜头粿”就是萝卜糕。

过年祭祖，要到除夕日下午。过年，家里已成年有收入的小辈，要给长辈送“压岁钱”，长辈也要对未成年的小辈给“压岁钱”，户户如此，体现了尊老惜幼的美德。

在正月里，潮汕地区都游神祈福的活动，就是把庙里面的神座抬到大街上游行，人们要放鞭炮、烧香、接福。这就是潮州春节的习俗。

The new year is a traditional program in the Spring Festival, and my family is no exception. The first day of the year of the tiger, I got up early, put on new clothes up, with mom and dad to pay New Years call aunt Lee home.

When the car was at the door of Aunt Lis house, I saw a red red spring couplet on her broad gate, brand new and new. On both sides of the door is still hanging high big red lanterns. Before I entered the house, I felt the strong festive atmosphere of the Spring Festival. Mother knew I was a "not sweet" child. Before knocking on the door, I made a special urge to tell me, "baby, you have to take the initiative to see my uncle and aunt!" "Good!" I readily agreed. As my mother pressed the bell, I was secretly prepared for new years new years blessings. I didnt think that when Aunt Li opened the door, my heart was like a cat scratched. It shrinks back to the mouth. When it comes to the mouth, it is scared away. At this time, her mother anxious to touch my hand, as if to remind me to say: "hurry up, hurry up!" The more anxious my mother was, the more I could not speak, the worst thing was that I was so nervous that I forgot the ready blessings. Whats good to say? I am as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and this should let my mother be disappointed. Suddenly a word in my mind blurted out, "congratulations on a fortune, a red bag!" The adult present was first Leng, and then laughed. In the wrong way, I sly looked at my mother and found her face red. Aunt Lee looked at busy smiled and said "it is really lovely children, Xiao zheng!"

Think of it, my heart will have a sense of shame, will think what time you can be generous. It will be an unforgettable star in my growing up.

拜年是春节里的一个传统节目，我家也不例外。虎年的第一天，我起了个大早，穿上漂漂亮亮的新衣服，随着爸爸妈妈来到李阿姨家拜年。

当汽车停在李阿姨家门口时，我一眼就看到她家宽阔的大门上贴着一幅红红的春联，崭新崭新的。大门两侧还高高地挂着红彤彤的大灯笼。还没进屋，我就感受到了春节浓浓的节日气氛。妈妈知道我是一个“嘴巴不甜”的孩子，敲门之前特意叮嘱我：“宝贝，见到叔叔阿姨你可要主动问好哦！”“好的！”我爽快地答应了。趁着妈妈摁门铃时，我暗暗地在心里准备着新年祝福语。没想到的是，当李阿姨打开门后，我的心就像被猫抓了一下，缩了回去，刚到嘴边的话被吓得无影无踪，张大着嘴巴停在了半空中。这时，妈妈着急地碰了碰我的手，好象在提醒我：“快点说呀，快点说呀！”妈妈越着急我越说不出来，最糟糕的是我竟然紧张得把准备好的祝福语给忘了。说什么好呢？我急得像热锅上的蚂蚁，这下又该让妈妈失望了。突然我的脑海里闪过一句话，脱口而出：“恭喜发财，红包拿来！”在场的大人先是一愣，接着哈哈大笑起来。又说错了，我偷偷地瞄了妈妈一眼，发现妈妈的脸都涨红了。李阿姨见状忙笑着说“真是童言无忌，筱铮真可爱！”

一想起这件事，我心里就会有种羞羞的感觉，就会想着什么时候自己能够变大方呀。它将成为我成长过程中一颗难忘的星。
