过春节英语作文优秀20篇

There is no doubt that we all want to be successful. But what’s the main

concern of the way to success? From Abraham Lincoln’s famous remark, “Give me

six hours to chop down a tree, and I will spend the first four sharpening the

axe”, I learn that if we want to achieve success, we must make full preparation

for it.

Only if we are well prepared, can we catch the opportunity which occurs

once in a while. In our daily life, we have to expand our horizon and lay a

solid foundation for success. It will be a long way to be successful thus we

have to accumulate our knowledge day by day. And we can’t achieve success in one

or two days. It will help us solve problems more efficiently if we have a broad

horizon. What’s more, opportunities always occur out of our expectation so we

have to make ourselves well prepared. If we prepared, we will catch up with it

whenever it comes up.

Opportunities give priorities to the people who make preparation for them.

What’s more, success goes along with opportunities. We should develop the

ability to solve problems in different and efficient ways therefore we can make

our way to success more easily.

Many people believe that having a lot of money is the greatest happiness in

life. But I dont agree with them, because money is not everything. Money cant

make us a true man.

The way I see it, good health is much better than a lot of wealth. No

matter how much money we have, we’ll not feel happy at all if we are in poor

health. In order to be healthy, we must keep a positive attitude and have a good

living habit.

Apart from good health, we must be diligent at work. As long as we work

hard, we cannot just make a good living, but enrich our minds.

Additionally, we ought to give our helpful hands to others when they are in

need. While helping others, we can own a good fame as well as get more social

experience. Its really a good way to kill two birds with one stone. Only by

doing so can we enjoy the happiest life.

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.

Just as the old saying：“Well began is the half of the success.”So I decide that I should be at work while the others are still relaxing ，and then ，at the beginning ，Im quicker than the others and of course I will get better result than the others.

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.

春节要来了，我们全家忙得不得了。又是买年货，又是大扫除。

急急忙忙去买年货

春节当然要买年货，都到大年三十了。

我们全家只能急匆匆地跑进超市。超市里琳琅满目的商品使我眼花缭乱，顿时不知所措。我们左看看、右看看，摸摸这、望望那儿。不一会儿，购物车里就装满了东西，似乎快把车压垮了，推都推不动，就怕待会儿车里装不下了。我们一边推着车，一边望着商品。很快，我们就结账了，使后拿着大包小包的礼品准备去吃年夜饭。

团团圆圆吃年夜饭

吃年夜饭了。亲戚们都来了，人可真多。我看着这一桌丰盛佳肴，我的肚子就“咕咕”直叫了。吃饭了，我狼吞虎咽起来，吃得油光满面，但也不忘扫视周围。过了一会儿，我妈妈给我盛了一碗饭，我吃着吃着发现碗底有一个圆子，我满脸疑惑，又发现姨妈与妈妈在偷笑。“既然我挖到了‘宝’，那就鉴一下‘宝’吧!”我想。这会儿，我发现奶奶的手在口袋里“蠢蠢欲动”，我就跑过去，在奶奶耳边说上几句好话。奶奶就笑吟吟地拿出红包，给了我。我迫不及待地想回房间看看有多少钱。

快快乐乐齐放烟花

吃完饭，我们便拥出家门，找到了一个空旷的地方，拿出烟火，开始放鞭炮。只听‘啪啪’几声，几朵绚丽花在空中绽放。红的似火、白的似雪、粉的似霞……夜空中那璀璨的明星，也不再寂寞，他们有了烟花的陪伴。我胆子比较大，拿了一个小型烟花，跑到别处去，小心翼翼地拿出打火机，点燃了导火线，只听“兹兹”的声音，我的心揪了起来，但是那炫丽的烟花使我深深地陶醉其中，把恐惧感抛到九霄云外。

欢欢喜喜同看春晚

到了晚上，我最关注的就是春晚了。今年的春晚各种各样的明星都来了，还有各种独角戏、小品、相声……真是一年的春晚比一年的春晚好看。一阵阵笑声不时传出房屋;一阵阵歌声流出电视;一阵阵掌声涌出电视……所有的节目都使我耳目一新。我最爱的就是刘谦的魔术，简直就是魔法，太奇妙了。眼睛一眨，就出现了一个奇迹

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 are a lot of good things in the spring festival, I want to talk about good things today is very common, for you may be a little insignificant.

Spring festival is near, but the archduke is not beautiful. It s been snowing for 50 years. Snow is more than 15 cm thick, hanging under the eaves of ice hanging more than 10 cm long, frozen into disaster. Road freezing caused traffic disruption, material shortages, many poles " waist". The problem of power failure and water shortage ensued. Winter was cold, without electricity can t bake the fire, it is worse. After the power failure, my candle used up, the market did not sell, had to eat dinner early, it was dark and went to sleep. And the headache is that water stopped after the blackout. Every day in order to water to go far away to mention, water is more precious than gold! Just start to wash a face once a day, to the next two days, take a shower more " Arabian nights". This kind of life makes us return to the " primitive society" all messed up. Although the spring festival is coming, but there is no festive atmosphere, very anxious to end this " dark without light day" life immediately.

Thirty in the morning, call, water! I turned on the light, the light lit in an instant; Open the electric heating furnace, immediately hot; Tap water, immediately water " wow" flow out. I am happy to dance, " primitive society" is finally over, our life is back to normal.

I saw premier Wen visit Hunan twice in 44 hours on the special TV " fight against ice and snow" program, and climbed up the mountain to comfort the power hero regardless of danger. I can t help but sigh with emotion at the touching scene: premier Wen is so kind! How warm the party and the government are! Don t care about electricity at ordinary times, at this time is how precious, is the power hero for life.

Have such a prime minister, have such a party and government, have such a hero, isn t it a joy to us? This joy is not personal, belong to everyone!

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.

With the bursts of firecrackers. The celebration of the Spring Festival comes at last.

However, at the same time, people play a lot of waste. According to the survey, the waste of the Spring Festival is 10 times as much as usual (non holiday). These figures are really to be counted, and you can imagine how amazing it is. So, at the same time, we do not forget to save.

The waste of food is especially serious during the Spring Festival. The new year, we have to prepare enough things in the supermarket to buy special purchases for the Spring Festival, convenient to move home; there are people who work units, friends. The source of special purchases for the Spring Festival not put, the home refrigerator, but on the outside. But just a few days later, the weather is getting warmer. The thing broke out immediately, couldnt eat it, and had to throw it away. There are also years of night meal, in order to be rich, all families have bought a lot of things, but they can eat very little, and finally there is a lot of surplus. “ more than &rdquo in years; a good omen, but the remaining things, but in the case of no one, were poured into the ditch or the roadside. New years festival is the peak of consumption. At this time for the Spring Festival shopping, eat and drink, do special purchases for the Spring Festival can. However, do not forget to save in the consumption, to eliminate waste.

In addition to the waste of food, the waste of the new year is very serious. In our lives, there is often a waste of electricity. As far as our family is concerned, thirty nights in the big year, the lanterns are hung up on my house, all night, and how much electricity is consumed. Also, in order to have a good sign, on the thirty night houses are the lights lit, night lights, electricity consumption as can be imagined how much.

There is a lot of waste in the Spring Festival. For example, gifts are given during the Spring Festival, which also presents the waste of gift packaging. Some units send gifts to employees in the new year, and everything is covered with beautiful packaging. It is too big to take home, but when the packing is removed, the original thing is much smaller. These packages are about half of the space, and most of them are new, so its a bit wasteful. Many shopping malls, supermarkets can see, many for the gift of people in the selection of those exquisite gift boxes. There is only two bottles of wine in a box that looks like the size of a normal TV screen. A lot of gifts are packed in layer after layer, so people dont know what it is inside. Its even doubted that the box is worth more than the inside. During the Spring Festival, the packing box is the most important time. It did cause a lot of waste of paper and plastic.

“ save the resources, start from me. ” to eliminate waste, the key is to start from yourself, start from small things, start from now!

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.

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.

But we are talking about a tradition that seems to be fading.Spring Festival， as it is celebrated today， has undergone many changes， thanks to the country‘s economic development and globalization.

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.

But three decades of economic growth has ensured that people in China， except for those who are still poor， can enjoy a good meal whenever they want. Such has been the change in people‘s fortune that some have to be treated for obesity and other health problems associated with excessive eating.

In the past， celebrations were limited to events like song-and-dance duets in North China， dragon/lion dances in South China and fireworks， which required the joint efforts of the entire community. But economic development and urbanization seems to have weakened the social links among people. Many， especially those living in cities， are not interested in celebrating the festival with people they hardly know.

Many customs associated with Spring Festival have changed， too. In the past， people used to visit relatives and friends with gifts and lots of good wishes. Today， many people， especially the youth， use their cell phones or the Internet to send their good wishes and even "gifts" to their relatives and friends. Some may say this a sign that people have become less caring about their near and dear ones， but we should see this development as a time- and energy-saving exercise granted by the information age.

In recent times， many people have started praying for a career promotion or more money instead of invoking God or the Buddha for a healthy and long life and the welfare of their family. But the number of such people is decreasing now， which shows that people are becoming more reasonable.

Dragon Boat Festival,often known as Tuen Ng Festival or Duan Wu Festival,is

a traditional Chinese festival held on the fifth day of the fifth month of the

Chinese calendar.Dragon Boat festival memorializes the Chinese poet Qu Yuan.He

committed suicide by drowning himself in a river because he was disgusted by the

corruption of the Chu government.People sat on dragon boats,and tried to scare

the fishes away by the thundering sound of drums.Hence,toady we sail the dragon

boats to celebrate this festival.Also,people eat zongzi (the food originally

intended to feed the fishes) in memory of Qus dramatic death.
