如何向外国友人介绍传统节日中秋节的英语文章

全文共 1474 字

+ 加入清单

The Moon Festival or Mid -autumn Festival is one of the three major traditional festivals celebrated by Chinese people. Like harvest time in other countries, the Mid-autumn Festival actually began as a

thanksgiving celebration, honoring the Soil God and the Crop God. This is also a time for family reunions. Chinese people enjoy moon cakes during this feast just as they eat rice dumplings for the Dragon Boat Festival. It is quite appropriate to bring moon cakes with you in token of festival greetings when calling on people during this season.

The Mid-Autumn Day

August 15th in Chinese Lunar Calendar is the

Mid-Autumn Day. It is one of the most important traditional festivals in China.

On that day people usually go back home to have family reunion. Each family will have the members get together to have a big dinner. The most popular food is moon cakes. They are round and look like the moon.

The moon is the brightest this night. People ate the delicious food while they were enjoying a beautiful full moon in their yard. At this time, some old people would like to tell many past events and tell the children a story about the rabbit. The children really believed that there was a rabbit on the moon. They wanted to go to the moon and have a look one day.

What a great festival!

中秋节

农历八月十五日是中秋节,在中国它是最重要的传统节日之一。 在那一天,人们通常回家与家人团聚,一家人聚在一起饱餐一顿。最流行的食品是月饼,它们圆圆的就像月亮。

尊敬的各位考官、各位评委老师大家好: 通过考试,今天,我以本岗位笔试第一的成绩进入了面试。对我来说,这次机会显得尤为珍贵。

我叫***,今年27岁。xx年7月我从**师范学校艺师美术专业毕业。由于从97年起国家不再对自费生包分配,使我与“太阳底下最光辉的职业”失之交臂。

今天,我想通过此次考试重新走上讲坛的愿望是那样迫切!我家共有三姊妹,两个姐姐在外打工,为了照顾已上了年纪的父母,我一直留在他们身边。我曾开过铺子,先是经营工艺品,后又经营服装。但不论生意做得如何得心应手,当一名光荣的人民教师始终是我心向往之并愿倾尽毕生心血去追求的事业。我曾多次参加考试,但都由于各种原因而未能实现梦想,但我暗下决心,只要有机会,我就一直考下去,直到理想实现为止。

河西马厂完小师资不足,经人介绍,我在该完小担任了一年的临时代课教师。回想起那段时光真是既甜蜜又美好,虽然代课工资很低,但听着同学们围在身旁“老师”、“老师”的叫个不停,看着那一双双充满信任的眼睛,那一张张稚气的小脸,生活中的所有不快都顿时烟消云散了。我原想,即使不能转正,只要学校需要,就是当一辈子代课教师我也心甘情愿。不料,xx年起国家开始清退临时工和代课教师,接到了学校的口头通知后,我怀着恋恋不舍的心情,悄悄地离开了学校。

如今的我,历经生活的考验,比起我的竞争对手在年龄上我已不再有优势,但是我比他们更多了一份对孩子的爱心、耐心和责任心,更多了一份成熟和自信。教师这个职业是神圣而伟大的,他要求教师不仅要有丰富的知识,还要有高尚的情操。因此,在读师范时,我就十分注重自身的全面发展,广泛地培养自己的兴趣爱好,并学有专长,做到除擅长绘画和书法外,还能会唱、会说、会讲。“学高仅能为师,身正方能为范”,在注重知识学习的同时我还注意培养自己高尚的道德情操,自觉遵纪守法,遵守社会公德,没有不良嗜好和行为。我想这些都是一名教育工作者应该具备的最起码的素养。

如果,我通过了面试。我将加倍努力工作来贡献自己的力量,为教育事业添砖加瓦,决不辜负“人类灵魂的工程师”这个光荣的称号。

Last qingming Festival,i return home to worship my grandfather.qingming Festival is a folk Festival.In the past,In the past, the qingming Festival was called "Arbor Day". But Today, Chinese visit their family graves to tend to any underbrush that has grown. Weeds are pulled, and dirt swept away, and the family will set out offerings of food and spirit money. Unlike the sacrifices at a familys home altar, the offerings at the tomb usually consist of dry, bland food. One theory is that since any number of ghosts rome around a grave area, the less appealing food will be consumed by the ancestors, and not be plundered by strangers.

With the passing of time, this celebration of life became a day to the honor past ancestors. Following folk religion, the Chinese believed that the spirits of deceased ancestors looked after the family. Sacrifices of food and spirit money could keep them happy, and the family would prosper through good harvests and more children.
