My  plan  of  next  year

A new year ，a new start，when I stand on the edge of  a new year，I cant help thinking about my plan of next year.

But ，what I really decide to do is that I must make good of anytime I can spare though it seems impossible.While，I will do my best to live up with what I have planned，and the result will prove it.

The Spring Festival is here, and the couplet is also attached to the couplet. Today, we have a couplet together. I saw my dad playing the couplet as if they were fun, so I had a quarrel to stick. Dad said to me, "the couplets should be posted right, and they are all grown up. What do children stick to?"

At this time, I saw my father put the Fu paste back, I said, "Dad, the Fu sticker is opposite!" Dad said, "come over to represent the meaning of Blessing, do you understand?" "Oh, I have learned new knowledge." And I also know the last word on the one or two, the last word is to distinguish between the upper and lower three or four. On the face on the right, lower left attached to the knowledge. Im so happy!

At this time, the sound of the outside of the sound of firecrackers ringing, but I do not feel hard to hear. It may be that the joy of learning new knowledge is better than the unpleasant sound of a firecracker. So it wont be hard to hear.

Look at the red couplets, listening to the sound of fireworks, "good" thinking, learn the new knowledge of the great joy.

The old man, how I want you to stay in this nice firecracker! Even for a moment, it is also beautiful, and it makes me feel endless.

Because only once a year, the new year, the scene is so nostalgic!

The term is coming to an end. The Spring Festival is coming. I am very excited. I have already planned how to use the Spring Festival. Now the Spring Festival, which is looking forward to it, is coming. Oh, I must be full and meaningful.

First of all, you have to buy a couplet ahead of time, put a few doors into the home, and let the home spill over the festival. Of course, fireworks and firecrackers are essential, and I particularly like the magnificent landscape of the rain when the fireworks fly into the sky. Dumpling is one of the indispensable food during the Spring Festival, mom made dumplings, very fresh, I must lead a person to endless aftertastes tongtongkuaikuai, meal, snack.

Next, you have to go to the family and friends home for a new year. A door, I want to "uncle, aunt long short" to call them, then mom and dad bought a gift for them, hee hee, relatives will entertain us warmly served delicious snacks, put candy, and I love the most is that Hunan tea bud, with sesame ramming. As long as the boiling water bubble, wow, aroma, make people unable to hide greeds, appetite.

Then eat dinner, mom do the dinner on New Years Eve can be said to be "a", the whole family sitting together, taste the delicious food, talking and laughing, enjoyable. The love is to see once a year the Spring Festival Gala, which shows rich and colorful, comic sketches, songs, wonderful performances, give a person to enjoy.

In the middle of my new years new year plan, my mother called me to write the homework. Hey, I love the spring festival you come soon.

on new years eve，our class had a party. the atmosphere was good. it was out of the ordinary from the very begining. the boy student from one bedroom gave an unusual performance. we saw a boy named li xinmin turn off all the lights in a sudden snap. then with three resounding(响亮的) crow of a cock echoing in the hall，the hall was again brightly lit in a snap.

then，the representative of the bedroom zhu guozhang asked us to guess a line of a poem related to the above situation. he added that li xinmin alone was born in the year of the dog and the other three were all born in the year of the chicken. they left us all in confusion. and it was our monitor who was quickwitted(机智的). he shouted our， "the day breaks as the cock crows three times at dawn." the hall after that，they had another item. this time li xinmin was placed in the middle of the circle. while he was standing there，the other three stood around him，each bowing down to him at an angle of 120 degrees. it was an idiom. this time i got it right："the dog stands out among a group of chickens."

Chinese New Year is the most important festival in China. Before the Spring Festival People clean their houses，put red couplets on their gates，and set off firecrackers to drive away the legendary monster “Nian”.

On the eve of the Spring Festival, families get together and have a big dinner. Dumplings are the most traditional food.

The Spring Festival lasts about 15 days long .People visit relatives and friends with the words “Happy new year”. People enjoy the Spring Festival, during this time they can have a good rest.

Children like the festival very much, because they can have delicious food and wear new clothes .They can also get some money from their elders. This money is given to children for good luck.

The best thing to see is fireworks; the most pleasing thing is fireworks; the most popular is the fireworks.

I also love fireworks, love that beautiful. Bright fireworks.

My hometown is in the countryside, a small country, every time I have to go back every year, this year is no exception.

It was dark, no moon, no stars, no light. People were watching TV at home, waiting for the start of the Spring Festival Gala, and there was a quiet silence. Suddenly, “ a bombardment of ” a sound, breaking the silence. I ran out to see that someone started to smoke.

The fireworks, so close to me, bloomed on the top of my head. After the loud noise, it is like a myriad of small stars, forming a round ball. There are red, green, yellow, purple … … colourful, very beautiful.

Then all the people began to smoke. Around the sound, &ldquo bomb; ” like thunder, the sky was also reflected a riotous with colour.

I stood on the roof and looked at the beautiful scenery. Because the countryside is surrounded by mountains, so, when the fire and fire in all directions rise, it will appear to be very hierarchical. Its near here. Its far away. Here we see the whole form of fireworks, where only a point and a little light are seen.

Somehow, I suddenly felt a kind of happiness. Looking at the fireworks that bloomed, it was like a warm stream passing through it.

&ldquo, fireworks, can make people happy? ” I cant help asking myself.

“ yes, but I dont know why. ” I thought in my heart.

Looking at the fireworks, I fell into a fantasy. I dream of my family and I sat down to eat family reunion dinner, laughing and talking, not a lack of, a lot; I imagine my friends and I can happily spend every day, no worries, no quarrel; I imagine my future life rich and colorful; I think I thought everything, all wishes all; I can imagine waking and meet, he looked carefully, with listening to his song … … I imagined all the beautiful picture, the heart suddenly enriched many.

The lovely fireworks, like the pure smiling face of the child, make people happy. The bright fireworks are like countless glittering eyes filled with love, so it makes people happy. The beautiful fireworks, like a flash in the pan, just fell off. It brought happiness to people in its most wonderful moments, and left peoples daydream space to imagine the happiness they want.

I stood there and looked at the fireworks, but my heart had long gone, and I flew to the happiness of the fireworks.

Theres an old called "years" the monster, head length Angle, fierce anomaly, life in the sea. On New Years eve will climbed out, the spitting food livestock harm thy soul. So a to New Years eve, everyone fled to the mountains, to avoid the damage. This year, from the village to a silver whiskers elegant, eye if lang star old yourself. Midnight "years" burst into the village, is preparing to bluster, all of a sudden there was "cracking" Fried noise, the old has put on red appear in front of the "year", "year" shuddered, to flee to the sea, and the night cant into the village. This is to celebrates New Years eve legends and the origin of firecrackers, and then after thousands of years of development, the Chinese New Year customs to accept the more abundant the.

Again, the Spring Festival in the cheers of the children, the ringing of firecrackers in the morning, it quietly again.

For many children, the arrival of the Spring Festival is happy, they sing, they dance, to celebrate their festival day yue. But for me, the Spring Festival is not so good, the arrival of the Spring Festival, but cant bring me joy. Because, I am a child of the poor. I wake up in the morning, when the Spring Festival just think: "if I can get parents accident in the morning of New Years money, can have a lot of snacks to eat, that it would be great! When thought of here cant help jumped out of bed, but the cruel fact had to let me out of the fire of hope in my heart. Im a telling myself: dont be wishful thinking, you are children of the poor, and then, I only sitting silently in the doorway, looking at other children happy smiling face.

Is a series of firecrackers, put me back from the past. Yes, I its time to get up, though not parents money, and the wide variety of snacks, but bed.

I finished at very fast speed wash and dress, when I step out the door, hall scene caught my eye, thats right! That is my mom and dad put out snacks, thats right! When I think of this, mother walked to come over, the hand also took a new 50 yuan, with infinite care, said: "lili, happy New Year, this is your lucky money this year, with good, dont lost!" I was stunned. Asked: "mom, family situation is bad, we get lucky money stem what?" Mom smiled: "silly child, reform and opening up so long, my situation is much better, is mom and dad Im sorry you before, but later, dont have to be poor, you can rest assured with good." "There are snack, eat more." Im bouncing, ran to the front of the dim sum, caught a handful, happily pigged out.

I lean against the door, in one hand and a snack, a hand holding mother gave me money, then looked at the group of children playing nearby broke, listening to the adults said bless "get rich" in the New Year, and is that a proliferation of firecrackers, heart feel carefree!

春节又到了，在孩子们的欢呼声中，在清晨那清脆的爆竹声中，它再一次悄然而至。

对于众多孩子来说，春节的到来是令人高兴的，他们唱歌，他们跳舞，以庆祝他们的喜庆节曰。但对于我来说，春节没有这么好，春节的到来，却不能给我带来喜悦。因为，我是穷人家的孩子。每当春节早上我一醒来，就在想：“要是我早上能意外得到父母的压岁钱，能有好多的点心吃，那该有多好呀!每当想到这里便情不自禁地跳下床，可是，无情的事实不得不让我熄灭了心中的希望之火。我不得不再一次告诫自己：别再痴心妄想了，你是穷人家的孩子，然后，我只有默默地坐在门口，望着别家孩子们欢乐的笑脸。

又是一阵清脆的爆竹声，把我从往事中拉了回来。是啊，我该起床了，尽管得不到父母的压岁钱，还有那琳琅满目的点心，可床还是得起的。

我以极快的速度梳洗完毕，当我跨出房门时，厅堂里的一幕吸引了我的目光，没错!那是我爸妈摆放出来的点心，没错的!当我想到这时，妈妈走了过来，手里还拿了一张崭新的50元人民币，带着无限关爱说：“丽，新年快乐，这是你今年的压岁钱，拿好，别丢了!”我顿时惊呆了。问道：“妈，我们家庭状况不好，拿压岁钱干啥?”妈笑了笑：“傻孩子，改革开放这么久了，我家状况也好多了，以前是爸妈对不起你，但是以后，不用再受穷了，你就放心拿着好了。”“那边还有点心，多吃点。”我一蹦一跳，跑到点心前，抓了一大把，开心地吃了个痛快。

我靠着门边，一手拿着点心，一手捏着妈妈给我的压岁钱，再望着不远处那群孩子打闹的情景，听着大人们说着“新年发财”的祝语，耳畔是那此起彼伏的爆竹声，心中不觉畅快无比!

The Spring Festival

The Spring Festival， Chinese New Year，is the most important festival for all of us. All family members get together on New YearEve to have a big meal.At the same time， everyone celebrates to each other.At about 12 oclock，some parents and children light crackers.The whole sky is lighted brightly. We may watch the fireworks excitedly.How busy it is!

On the first early moring of one year， many senior citizen get up early and they stick the reversed Fu or hang some couplets on the front door. Some houses windows are sticked on red paper cutlings.

The Chinese New Year lasts fifteen days. So during the fifteen days， we always visit our relatives from door to door. At that time， children are the happiest because they can get many red packets form their parents，grandparents， uncles， aunts and so on. The last day of the Chinese New Year is another festival. It names the Lantern Festival.

So the Chinese New Year comes to the end.

There is also a huge difference between Chinese and Western people. Chinese people use chopsticks and western people use fork and knife. Usually people who use fork and knife will use fork to hold the meat and cut it by knife and use fork to help to get that piece of meat into mouse. Chinese just use chopstick to pick things and pass it into your mouse.

Chinese people only have three meals during a day. But western people will have more, they have afternoon tea. Usually they would have fruits, homemade cake, tea (black tea) or biscuit with cheese. If you are a housewife and have a lot of time, you may have morning tea as well.

Dear John,

How time flies! Four moths have passed since we saw each other last time. I cannot helpbut miss you. You asked me about Chinese Spring Festival. Now I would like to tell yousomething about it.

The Spring Festival is a Chinese traditional festival. It is the most important and

enjoyable one. A few days before the festival, houses are cleaned and red couplets are

put up on the doors of every household. They are said to frighten away the ghosts. On that day, people are dressed up. Firecrackers ring out in the air, which adds to the atmosphere of the festival. People after a year’s hard work begin to relax and visit one another. Presents and dinners are given to celebrate the happy reunion of friends and relatives. Families get together. They have jiaozi and enjoy the New Year TV show. Customs may

vary from place to place, but the same happy atmosphere is to be found everywhere in

the country.

Now, I hope you have some idea of Chinese Spring Festival.

Best wishes,

Yours,

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
