屈原是中国历史上第一位伟大的爱国诗人，中国浪漫主义文学的奠基人，屈原也是楚国重要的政治家，最后抱石沉江，后来就有了纪念屈原的节日端午节。

One explanation is that the Duanwu Festival originated from people’s worship of dragons. In ancient China, people believed the dragon was the god in charge of water, which was vitally important to daily life and agricultural production. On the day of Duanwu, people raced dragon boats to entertain the god and offered him Zongzi as a treat. The sole purpose was to please the god to ensure a year of favorable weather.

Some people believe Duanwu comes from activities instigated by ancient sorcerers. These activities were held in early summer when the hot weather was about to bring diseases to people who didn’t have modern devices and medicines to protect themselves. So, ancient sorcerers encouraged people to wear fragrant pouches and hang mugwort and calamus on their doors to drive away the so-called evil spirits that caused diseases.

Scholars may provide many other explanations about the origin of the Duanwu Festival. But if you ask ordinary people about its origin, you’ll get the same answer. They will tell you that the Duanwu Festival honors the great poet, Qu Yuan. They’ll also tell you the story that has been passed down for more than 2,000 years.

Qu Yuan was born in 340 BC, during the Warring States Period. At that time, there were seven states struggling among themselves to unify China. Of the seven states, Qin was the strongest and Chu the largest.

Qu Yuan was a noble of Chu. During his lifetime, the powerful kingdom of Chu fell into a decline.

Early in his life, Qu Yuan won the confidence of the King of Chu, and was his deputy prime minister, helping draft laws and determine foreign-policy. When he saw the danger posed by the ambitious Qin State, he proposed government reforms and an alliance with the neighboring Qi state as a way to ensure Chu’s safety.

But the King of Chu was surrounded by self-seekers, who were jealous of Qu Yuan. They accepted bribes from the Qin’s envoy, dissuaded the King from taking Qu Yuan’s advice and brought about the poet’s estrangement from the King. Qu Yuan was finally sent into exile for 20 years.

During those desperate years, Qu Yuan helplessly watched his beloved country become weaker every day. In the year 278 BC, the capital of Chu was stormed by troops from Qin. In great pain, Qu Yuan wrote “Lisao” or “The Lament”, the greatest of all his poems. On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, he drowned himself in the Milo River, because he was hopeless about his country’s future.

Qu Yuan died thousands of years ago, but he is remembered every year for his love of and loyalty to his country and his people.

一种解释是,端午节起源于人民崇拜的龙。在中国古代,人们认为龙是神掌管水,这是极其重要的,日常生活和农业生产。端午节那天,人们跑龙舟来娱乐神和他作为一个治疗提供粽子。唯一的目的是为了取悦上帝,确保一年的有利的天气。

一些人认为端午节来自活动受到古老的魔法。这些活动被举行在今年夏天早些时候,当炎热的天气即将带来疾病的人没有现代设备和药物来保护自己。所以,古代巫师鼓励人们穿香袋、挂艾蒿和菖蒲在门给赶走了所谓的恶灵,导致疾病。

学者可以提供许多其他解释起源的端午节。但是如果你问普通人关于它的起源,你会得到相同的答案。他们会告诉你,这个端午节纪念伟大的诗人,屈原。他们还会告诉你这个故事,已经传承了2000多年。

屈原于公元前340年出生于战国时期。当时,有七个州中挣扎着自己统一中国。的7个州,秦是最强的,楚最大的。

屈原是楚国的一个贵族。在他的一生中,楚国的强大王国陷入了衰退。

在他早年的生活中,屈原赢得了国王的信心,他楚副总理,帮助起草法律、决定外交政策。当他看到带来的危险雄心勃勃的秦国,他建议政府改革和一个联盟与周边的气状态,确保楚的安全。

但是国王的楚周围不如说,他们嫉妒屈原。他们接受贿赂从秦朝的特使,劝国王从吃屈原的建议,使诗人的疏远国王。屈原是最后流放了20年。

在这多年的绝望,无助地看着他心爱的屈原国家每天变得更弱。在公元前278年,楚国都城突袭部队由秦。在巨大的痛苦中,屈原写下了“《”或“抱怨”,最大的他所有的诗歌。在第五天农历的五月初五开始,他埋头米洛河,因为他对他的国家的未来无望。

屈原死于数万年前,但是他是记得每年他的爱和忠诚于他的国家和他的人民。

[介绍作家鲁迅的英语作文

Nowadays, there are many kinds of activities for people entertaining in their leisure time, especially in holiday, such as climbing a mountain, having a picnic, holding a party and so on. However, these recreational activities have its advantages but also bring some harmful influences to people’s lives.

First, to some extent, these recreational activities enrich people’s lives. Those who take part in different activities will not be easy to feel lonely or boring in their leisure time and live wonderful lives instead. Second, taking part in some group activities is a good form to strengthen friendships. For example, many students will hold a union to collect their old classmates or friends in winter holiday so that they have a common time to communicate with each other. Last but not least, such activities like climbing a mountain provide a good chance to do exercise.

However, these recreational activities also bring some problems at the same time. For one thing, taking part in too many these activities will increase the burden of themselves or their families because it is inevitable to spend some money in holding these activities. For another, some recreational activities have potential harm for participants’ health, particularly staying up all night, drinking and smoking.

Therefore, in my opinion, we have to make a careful consideration before we take part in these recreational activities.

Some have been to the beautiful little xinganling, some have been to the rich xisha islands, and I have been to the ancient civilization capital, xi an.

When you come to xi an, you will see the world-famous walls. As I reached the foot of the wall, I looked up and saw that the Great Wall was like a warrior of a full-body armor, guarding the ancient city.

Xi an has a variety of delicacies. Walking back in the street, you can taste the delicious meat, bread in the soup, oil chili sauce... Guests can fill their mouths.

Xi an is also a tourist attraction. My favorite is the big wild goose pagoda music fountain plaza. On the night of the summer, when you come here, you will see countless springs of water, in the sound of music, in the light of the colors of the light, and dancing to the beat of the beat. Sometimes like flowers, sometimes like willow... I am barefoot and jump into the water, the pearl drops on my body, very cool!

西安还是一个旅游胜地。我最爱去的是大雁塔音乐喷泉广场。夏日的夜晚，来到这里，你会看见无数的泉眼，在动听的音乐声中，在五光十色的灯光下，合着节拍偏偏起舞。有时像绽开的花儿，有时像垂下的杨柳……我光着脚丫，跳向水中，那珍珠般的水珠洒落在我的身上，甚是凉爽!

Table Manners

The main difference between Chinese and western eating habits is that unlike the West, where everyone has their own plate of food, in China the dishes are placed on the table and everybody shares. If you are being treated by a Chinese host, be prepared for a ton of food. Chinese are very proud of their culture of cuisine and will do their best to show their hospitality.

And sometimes the Chinese host use their chopsticks to put food in your bowl or plate. This is a sign of politeness. The appropriate thing to do would be to eat the whatever-it-is and say how yummy it is. If you feel uncomfortable with this, you can just say a polite thank you and leave the food there.

Eating No-nos

Dont stick your chopsticks upright in the rice bowl.Instead,lay them on your dish. The reason for this is that when somebody dies,the shrine to them contains a bowl of sand or rice with two sticks of incense stuck upright in it. So if you stick your chopsticks in the rice bowl, it looks like this shrine and is equivalent to wishing death upon a person at the table!

Make sure the spout of the teapot is not facing anyone. It is impolite to set the teapot down where the spout is facing towards somebody. The spout should always be directed to where nobody is sitting, usually just outward from the table.

Dont tap on your bowl with your chopsticks.Beggars tap on their bowls, so this is not polite.Also, when the food is coming too slow in a restarant, people will tap their bowls. If you are in someones home,it is like insulting the cook.
