From then on, the tradition of observing the conquest of Nian is carried on  from generation to generation. The term "Guo Nian", which may mean "Survive the  Nian" becomes today "Celebrate the (New) Year" as the word "guo" in Chinese  having both the meaning of "pass-over" and "observe". The custom of putting up  red paper and firing fire-crackers to scare away Nian should it have a chance to  run loose is still around. However, people today have long forgotten why they  are doing all this, except that they feel the color and the sound add to the  excitement of the celebration.

The Spring Festival is a Chinese festival. It has a long history and splendid culture. And the Spring Festival many small rules superstition is that the man.

Everyone should know the Spring Festival is one of important thing is - is available. You dont look down upon this thing it is to have cultured. Able to use fruit cannot careless, for example, not all fruits are fit to worship ancestors and gods. To choose a good fruit. Such as: apple, go in peace, oranges, kumquat oh, oranges - horse. Like a pear, can not as a tribute because there are some who think the pear and "from" are homophones ghost word. So is not popular. There is a banana -. So some fruit can not be available.

Fruit is only part of the tribute and dumplings as a tribute must put cant alone in pairs. Put the sugar when it as a tribute for hard candy cant fudge. Because such sweet hard enough will not spread.

Able to have the red candle, touch paper, incense, and so on, but the most important thing is that touch paper, touch paper had been pressed to be real money to burn, and the head of the press, which may be felt more sincere.

Whether these are real or fake, but at least be ancestors had relished the reason why there must be it. The little common sense in the hope that the Spring Festival can let more after 80, 90 after they know the Spring Festival in our Chinese mind how important. If no taboo Spring Festival also means there is no so many people pay attention to it. Rules more can reflect the significance of the Spring Festival.

春节是中国人的重大节日。它有着悠久的历史和灿烂的文化底蕴。而春节的许多小规矩小迷信也那么那人探寻。

大家都应该知道春节很重要的一件事情就是——上供。大家可别小看了这件事情这可是有讲究的。例如，上供用的水果不能马虎，不是所有的水果都适合去供奉祖先和神灵的。要选着寓意好的水果。例如：苹果——平平安安，桔子——金桔满堂，橙子——心想事成。像梨，就不可以作为贡品因为有一部分人认为梨和“离”是同音别字。所以不受大家欢迎。还有就是香蕉——焦头烂额。所以有些水果不能上供。

水果只是一部分贡品还有就是饺子作为贡品一定要成双成对的放不能落单。把糖作为贡品上供的时候要放硬糖不能放软糖。因为这样的甜蜜够硬不会散。

上供还要有红烛，火纸，佛香等等，不过最重要的是火纸，火纸要被真钱压过才可以烧，而且要一家之主压，这可能是觉得更加真诚吧。

不管这些是真是假，但至少被老祖宗们津津乐道就一定有它的原因。希望这些春节中的小常识可以让更多的80后，90后们知道春节在我们中国人心目中有多么的举足轻重。如果春节没有任何禁忌那么也就代表没有那么多人关注它。规矩越多越能体现春节的重大意义。

Spring Festival

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

The spring festival is the most important festival for the chinese people and is when all family members get together, just like christmas in the west. all people living away from home go back, becoming the busiest time for transportation systems of about half a month from the spring festival. airports, railway stations and long-distance bus stations are crowded with home returnees.

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.

The Spring Festival is a major festival for Chinese people. It has a long history and a splendid cultural background. And many small rules and little superstitions of the Spring Festival are the same.

Everyone should know that one thing is very important, for the spring festival. Lets not look down on this matter. For example, the fruit is not so careless, not all the fruits are suitable for the ancestors and gods. Choose a good fruit. For example: apple, orange, kumquat in peace, full house, orange, xinxiangshicheng. Like pears, not as a tribute because some people think pear and "leave" is the word homonym. So its not welcome. And its Bananas - a lot of trouble. So some fruit is not available.

There is only a part of fruit dumplings as a tribute tribute must not put in pairs of. As for the sugar tribute to put candy not fudge. Because the sweetness is hard enough.

For even one candle, incense, and so on, but the most important is the paper, paper to be really money before they can burn, but also a main pressure, which could be felt more sincere.

Whether it is true or false, but at least it is the reason why we must have our ancestors talked about. I hope that these Spring Festival common sense can let more and more post - 80s, and the post-90s know how important the Spring Festival is in the eyes of our Chinese people. If the Spring Festival does not have any taboos, it will mean that not so many people pay attention to it. The more rules, the more the significance of the Spring Festival.

过春节的意义英语作文：

Every year, when the Spring Festival comes, which is the biggest festival in China, Chinese people from all over the world will come back to their hometown and spend the day together. For me, as I grow up, I am not that excited about spring festival as I was a kid did. But it is true that this day let people stay together no matter how busy and how far they are. I barely have chances to see my relatives, but in Spring Festival, we will have dinner and talk the whole night. It is such a great moment for us to cherish. The meaning of Spring Festival is important for everyone.

在每年，中国最大的节日春节到来的时候，来自世界各地的华人都会回到家乡，一起度过这一天。对我来说，长大之后我对春节就不像小时候那样兴奋了。但是春节确实会让大家都聚在一起，不管有多忙，多远。我很少有机会见得到我的亲戚，但我们会在春节一起吃晚饭，聊天聊上一整晚。这是一个值得我们珍惜的伟大时刻。春节的意义对每个人来说都是重要的。

春节的英语资料：

Spring Festival is the most important holiday for Chinese people. Excitement and happiness are palpable this time of the year， and they reach the peak on lunar new year‘s eve.

我们知道春节对于中国人来说是最重要的节日。在每年的春节都让人兴高采烈，尤其是大年三十那晚，更是达到了高潮。

Though the 15-day period， which starts with the first day of the lunar new year and ends on the 15th day （known as Lantern Festival）， is relatively long， it is the busiest time of the year for Chinese people. The arrangements they have to make for family reunions， buying necessities and preparing food keeps them busy throughout the holiday. Many of them travel back home and meet friends over dinner and drinks. The celebrations include decorating the house and setting off fireworks.

其中春节历时15天，也就从大年初一开始，到元月十五元宵节结束。这段比较长的时间是中国人最忙的时候。他们为家庭聚会作安排，采购年货，准备丰盛的食物，以至于整个春节假期都忙忙碌碌的。许多人在春季期间都要回老家过年，跟朋友碰碰头，聚个餐。庆祝春节也包括大扫除和放烟火。

But we are talking about a tradition that seems to be fading.

现在我们现在要谈的是越来越淡的年味。

Spring Festival， as it is celebrated today， has undergone many changes， thanks to the country‘s economic development and globalization.

现在的春节已经因为我国经济的发展和全球化的影响而改变了很多。

Yet no Spring Festival is complete without food. People could not get good food whenever they desired in earlier times， something that does not apply to society today. More often than not， people faced the risk of famine. The best time for people to celebrate was when food was available in plenty， and that was possible in spring， or the beginning of the lunar new year. That was the main reason why Spring Festival acquired such great importance among Chinese people.

但是没有哪个春节是完全离得开“吃”的。从前，不论人们提前多久想要买年货，总是不能如愿，而现在早已今非昔比。过去常常还要闹饥荒。人们最好的庆祝时间就是他们能得到食物丰盛的时候，也就是春天或是元月初的那段时间。那也是为什么春节对于中国人如此重要的主要原因。

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.

The Spring Festival in my hometown almost from the year began, until the end of fifteen. Although there is only a short time to come to the sky, but every day is lively and festive.

The second day of the Spring Festival is to open the firecrackers to greet the blessing of the new year. The first thing for our children is to replace the new clothes for the parents, the elders have a new year. The following is the red bag. The Spring Festival this day most of the shops are closed, until the beginning of the six month is opened. On this day, the great people said that they could not sweep the ground, so that they would not sweep away their blessings. Many people have gone to the streets to buy gifts and send relatives and visit the year.

To the six all shops opened once a year, the Lantern Festival comes. The dragon will go to each house, the owner will greet the firecrackers. Listen to adults, the dragon has come, this is a good year and harvest year.

At sixteen of the first month, everything returned to peace. School, work, work. Next, we look forward to the next spring festival.

Throughout the millennia, students of all ages in China have had to endure the miseries of learning by rote. Teachers have stifled creativity in the pursuit of the accumulation of facts, and parents have forced children to spend mind-numbing hours cramming for exams. But for the past year, the government has been experimenting with what could amount to revolutionary changes in Chinas classrooms. The aim is to make education more pleasant, more useful and, above all, to challenge students to think for themselves.

What has prompted the reforms is a belated recognition that Chinas education system is failing to produce enough innovative thinkers. In addition, students are deeply unhappy. A survey conducted by the Education Ministry five years ago found more than 80% of students disliked school. Dropout rates have been rising in rural areas—partly for economic reasons but also because of the stultifying atmosphere of their classrooms. Exam pressures frequently lead to suicides. According to a survey last year among senior secondary-school students and university freshmen in one area, more than 50% had considered killing themselves.

Several other countries in East Asia, including Japan, South Korea and Taiwan, are grappling with similar problems. But the implications of Chinas reform efforts are particularly profound. Chinas traditional education methods are ideally suited to a political culture that requires citizens to submit blindly to authority. By encouraging students to question their teachers and regard them as equals (even official literature now talks of fostering a “democratic” atmosphere in classrooms), China could be ushering in a new kind of relationship between the rulers and the ruled.

整个几千年,在中国所有年龄段的学生不得不忍受苦难的死记硬背。老师扼杀创造力的追求事实的积累,和家长迫使孩子花的小时死记硬背的考试。但在过去的一年里,政府一直在尝试什么革命性的变化在中国的教室。目的是使教育更愉快、更有用,最重要的是,挑战学生独立思考。

什么促使改革是一个迟来的承认,中国的教育系统是无法产生足够的创新的思想家。此外,学生感到非常不满。五年前教育部进行的一项调查发现,超过80%的学生不喜欢学校。农村辍学率一直在上升的经济原因,还因为愚蠢的教室的气氛。经常考试压力导致自杀。去年的一项调查显示,在高级中学学生和大学新生在一个地区,超过50%的人认为是自杀。

其他几个国家在东亚,包括日本、韩国和台湾,也面临着类似的问题。但中国的改革努力的影响尤为深刻。中国传统的教育方法是适合一个政治文化,需要公民提交盲目权威。通过鼓励学生质疑老师和把他们视为等于(甚至现在官方文学对话培养“民主”的气氛中在教室),中国可能成为引领一种新的统治者和被统治者之间的关系。

In this chapter of the novel,Jane met her new friend-Helen.What Helen said really impressed me a lot,driving me think deeply.

“Life is too short to hate other people.We all have faults,but when we die,only the pure flame of the spirt will be left.Thats why I never think of revenge,I never consider life unfair.I live in calm,looking forward to the end."

Honesly speaking,I complained about my life or people around me now and again,wodering why it was always unfair to me.However,think it over,I shouldt have been so mean.Time flies.We need to expand the width of life instead of wasting time to think about something meaningless.

How to study English?

Study English,You do need to use English with speakers who are not teachers of English. This isnt easy, since everyone feels constrained speaking English with friends with whom it would be natural to use a shared mother tongue. Joining an English Club is a good idea and joining a club with an international membership (where English is in use at least some of the time) is, for many people, even better. If nothing like this is accessible, you might consider what would be involved in getting something going.

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.
