+ 加入清单There are many different beliefs about the origin of the Lantern Festival.
But one thing for sure is that it had something to do with celebrating and
cultivating positive relationship between people, families, nature and the
higher beings they believed were responsible for bringing/returning the light
each year.
One legend tells us that it was a time to worship Taiyi, the God of Heaven
in ancient times. The belief was that the God of Heaven controlled the destiny
of the human world. He had sixteen dragons at his beck and call and he decided
when to inflict drought, storms, famine or pestilence upon human beings.
Beginning with Qinshihuang, the first emperor to unite the country, all the
emperors ordered splendid ceremonies each year. The emperor would ask Taiyi to
bring favorable weather and good health to him and his people. Emperor Wudi of
the Han Dynasty directed special attention to this event. In 104 BC, he
proclaimed it as one of the most important celebrations and the ceremony would
last throughout the night. They clean it all up in the morning.
Another legend associates the Lantern Festival with Taoism. Tianguan is the
Taoist god responsible for good fortune. His birthday falls on the 15th day of
the first lunar month. It is said that Tianguan likes all types of
entertainment, so followers prepare various kinds of activities during which
they pray for good fortune.
Yet another common legend dealing with the origins of the Lantern Festival
speaks of a beautiful bird that flew down to earth from heaven, which was hunted
and killed by some villagers. This angered the Jade Emperor in Heaven because
the bird was his favorite one. Therefore, he planned a storm of fire to destroy
the village on the 15th lunar day. The Jade Emperors daughter heard of this
plan, and warned the villagers of her father’s plan to destroy their village.
The village was in turmoil because nobody knew how should they escape their
imminent destruction.
However, a wise man from another village suggested that every family should
hang red lanterns around their houses, set up bonfires on the streets, and
explode firecrackers on the 14th, 15th, and 16th lunar days. This would give the
village the appearance of being on fire to the Jade Emperor. On the 15th lunar
day, troops sent down from heaven whose mission was to destroy the village saw
that the village was already ablaze, and returned to heaven to report to the
Jade Emperor. Satisfied, the Jade Emperor decided not to burn down the village.
From that day on, people celebrate the anniversary on the 15th lunar day every
year by carrying red lanterns on the streets and exploding firecrackers and
fireworks.
There are many stories on how this festival was created. One other story is
about a maid. In the Han Dynasty, Mr. Eastern was a favorite advisor of the
emperor. One winter day, he went to the garden and heard a little girl crying
and getting ready to jump into a well to commit suicide. Mr. Eastern stopped her
and asked why. She said she was a maid in the emperors palace and her name was
Yuan-Xiao.
She never had the chance to meet her family after she started worked at the
palace. She missed them so much every 12th lunar month. If she couldnt have the
chance to show her filial piety in this life, she would rather die. Mr. Eastern
promised her to find a way so she could reunion with her family. Mr. Eastern
left the palace and set up a fortune-telling stall on the street and disguised
himself as a fortuneteller. Because of his reputation, many people asked for
their fortunes.
But every one got the same prediction - a severe fire accident on the 15th
lunar day. The rumor spread quickly. Everyone was worried about the future and
asked Mr. Eastern for help. Mr. Eastern said, "On the 13th lunar day, the God of
Fire will send a fairy lady in red to burn down the city. If you see a lady in
red wearing green pants riding a black horse on that day, you should ask for her
mercy." On that day, Yuan-Xiao pretended to be the red fairy lady. When people
asked for her help, she said, "Im the messenger of the God of Fire and came to
check on the city and Im going to set up fire on 15th. This is an order from
Jade Emperor. He will watch from the heavens.
I will give you a copy of the imperial decree from the God of Fire. You
should go to ask your emperor to find a way out." After she left, people went to
the palace to show the emperor the decree which reads "The capital city is in
trouble. Fire burns on the palace, and fire from Heaven burns all night long on
the 15th." The emperor of Han Dynasty was very shocked. He called and asked Mr.
Eastern for advice. After pondering for a while, Mr. Eastern said, "I heard that
the God of Fire likes to eat Tang-Yuan (Sweet dumpling). Does Yuan-Xiao often
cook Tang-Yuan for you? On the 15th lunar day, let Yuan-Xiao make Tang-Yuan.
Your Majesty will take charge of the worshipping ceremony and you will give
an order to every house to prepare Tang-Yuan to worship the God of Fire at the
same time. Also, deliver another order to ask every house in the city to hang
red lantern and explode fire crackers. Lastly, everyone in the palace and people
outside the city should carry their lanterns on the street to watch the lantern
decoration and fireworks. If everything goes this way, the Jade Emperor would be
deceived.
Then everyone can avoid the fire accident." The emperor happily followed
the plan. Lanterns were everywhere in the capital city on the night of the 15th
lunar day. People were walking on the street. Fire crackers kept making lots of
noise. It looked like the entire city was on fire. Yuan-Xiaos parents went into
the palace to watch the lantern decorations, and Yuan-Xiao made a big lantern
and wrote her name on the lantern. They happily reunited together after her
parents called her name. Everybody was safe during the night. The emperor of Han
Dynasty had a new order that people should do the same thing every year. Since
Yuan-Xiao cooked the best Tan-Yuan, people called the day Yuan-Xiao
Festival.
Young people were chaperoned in the streets in hopes of finding love.
Matchmakers acted busily in hopes of pairing couples. The brightest lanterns
were symbolic of good luck and hope. As time has passed, the festival no longer
has such implications.
Those who do not carry lanterns often enjoy watching informal lantern
parades. In addition to eating tangyuan (simplified Chinese: 汤圆; traditional
Chinese: 湯圓; pinyin: tāngyuán), another popular activity at this festival is
guessing lantern riddles (which became part of the festival during the Tang
Dynasty), which often contain messages of good fortune, family reunion, abundant
harvest, prosperity and love.

+ 加入清单Recently, I have been reading a book named Communication Arts. In this
book, the author Doctor Li introduces many methods to communicate with others
successfully and tells readers why everyone should be a polite person. My
favorite sentence in this book is “Everyone has potential, and everyone can
determine your own future by developing positive psychological, mastering
communication arts and showing your personality charm. In that way, you can have
a wonderful life!”
During whole sections, this book tells us human should live in a large
group, since people can’t solve all problems by their own. For that matter,
human beings should learn a series of manners to deal with any situation which
might happen wherever and whenever. After that, Doctor Li makes a point that
people need to realize how to resolve disagreements between friends, families or
colleagues. There always appears this kind of situation in social life, so it’s
important to understand how to settle it. Finally he teaches us that
communication techniques not only reflect in normal talk but also within body
languages.
In each part of the book, the author takes a large number of examples in
daily life to confirm his points. These examples in daily life are easy to
understand and accept.
After reading the book, I find many shortages of my communication skills. I
used to lack of patience when I talk to others, even got mad at them. This was
impolite and might destroy relationships between my friends and me. Therefore I
would try my best to improve myself and be welcome.
篇5:关于教育的英语
全文共 1175 字
+ 加入清单Do your teachers still use traditional techniques to teach you nowadays? A
revol- ution in teaching techniques is required now. In the past, we just took
it for granted that a teacher s aim was to teach the students all that he knew
and solve all the problems for them. Therefore, students could mot judge things
on their own under this circumstance. Thus students gradually lost the ability
to learn by themselves. In addition, they were only equipped with the knowledge
that were taught in class and made the same judgement upon every problem which
might crop up. Of course, they would find their knowledge not enough to solve
practical problems.
So it is time to change the teaching method. A teacher s goal is to help
the students develop not only the ability to learn by themselves but the skills
to make judgements on every aspect on their own. It s not necessary for the
students to turn to teachers for help while meeting with difficulties. The first
thing is to develop the students abilities to make sound judgements upon any
problem and overcome difficulties.
All in all, the aim of teaching is to liberate, but mot to fetter the
students innate powers of making sound judgements.

+ 加入清单Eating patterns change over time. Ingredients cannot be seen before in a
country might begin to appear in local markets , shipped from abroad. Migration
causes cultures to change, and eating patterns invariably reflect new
influences.
In the 20th century, few people have the time to go home for lunch, and
many city dwellers find themselves in need of grabbing a bite to eat in a place
close to their offices. As a result, the popularity of fast food and takeaway
food has risen . In many urban areas, people who traditionally ate their main
meal at midday now enjoy it in the evening, after work.
Changing eating patterns have an effect on other aspects of society. Meals
have traditionally been times when members of a family catch up with each other.
Fast food and quick meals sometimes threaten such family get-together.

The existing solutions to traffic jam mainly aim at creating metro bus
systems and broadening major roads. Widening the existing roads can solve
traffic snarls on some level. Soaring car ownership compounds the chronic
annoying problem, so we must sharply reduce the heavy reliance on cars and drive
a shift to the mass transportation. It is a cheap and good way. We can create a
system of customized bus routes and highlight the development of subways,
trolleys and light rail. The effective combination of these solutions will
enable the urban areas to possess a smooth traffic.

achievement on this dream stage. Although he hadnt gain the popularity among
the audience at the beginning, he always kept his dream in mind and never gave
it up. It is his success that brings home to me the power of dream.
A life without a dream is a life without a sun. Therefore, in no
circumstances can we give up our dream. Unquestionably, dreams are of great
importance. For one thing, a person having a dream will be considered to be more
responsible and unswerving. For another, in pursuit of our dream, there is a
chance that good habits and positive attitudes can be formed, contributing to
our success.
As for our students, what we should do is to choose a healthy seed and
plant it on fertilized soil. Firstly, knowledge is the foundation of dream
realization, so we should spend much time in study to enrich ourselves.
Secondly, it also takes perseverance and confidence if we want to realize our

Recent years have seen a tendency in China that tourism is growing faster. According to a recent survey made by some experts, about 47% urban residents travel regularly, and 28% rural residents also make their tour across the country. The survey also shows that more people are interested in tourism, and will join the army in the future.
Facing this tendency, we can’t help exploring some underlying factors that are responsible. In the very first place, with the policy of reform and opening up, Chinese people’s living standard has been greatly improved, and therefore, most of them can afford to travel around. What’s more, it is believed that people now take a more positive attitude to tourism, and regard it as a life style. In addition, tourism facilities are becoming better and better.

enhance our horizons and increase our knowledge. I still remember I entered the
school two years ago, the library was old enough and I always couldnt find my
favorite comic books. Therefore, I often complained to my classmates that the
library was out of fashion that we were not able to learn fresh knowledge in
it.
