There are many traditional festivals in China, such as the childrens day, the national day, the Dragon Boat Festival and the Mid Autumn Festival, but my favorite and most expected is the Spring Festival.

Lets talk about the origin of the Spring Festival. Legend has a monster called "year", the head long antennae, fierce and abnormal. "Year" years of deep seabed, every new years Eve just climbed out, devouring livestock harm human life. Therefore, every new years Eve, people help the aged and the young stockaded village fled to the mountains, to avoid "year" damage. A new years Eve, peach blossom village people are to help the aged and the young to take refuge, an old man came to the village, at this time, everyone on the run, who do not care about the old man, only an old woman carrying food to persuade the elderly, said: "everyone in the refugee! You can run away with the food, too. " The old man said unhurried, "can I stay in your house for a while?" The old woman hurried to persuade the elderly, the old man just only smiled but did not reply the old woman had to promise the elderly. The old man hung a red lantern in front of the house, and there was a lot of red things in front of the door. Suddenly, "year", "year" went to the front of the wife, I saw the red light scattered, "year" was scared away. At this time, sounded crackling sound of firecrackers, "year" was scared to death, escape from the village of peach blossom. Later, people called the happy day of the people "Spring Festival".

A row of shops at the entrance, some hanging on every kind of lanterns, some big red lanterns hang, some affixed with "longevity, happiness as immense as the Eastern Sea" auspicious antithetical couplet. The street shop owners are Strike while the iron is hot. peddled. The small shop selling special purchases for the Spring Festival display, the size of the red lanterns and printed with a picture of auspicious antithetical couplet, dizzying, customers coming in a steady stream of Shaoxing, the boss too busy to attend to all. The children are wearing new clothes brightly coloured shuttle in the high streets and back lanes, face hung sweet smile. The streets were full of people, adults and children. The sound of firecrackers, fireworks, cheers and laughter filled the whole town, everywhere permeated with a festive atmosphere.

Not only in the street, but also at home. At home, people eat reunion dinner with relatives coming back from far away, then watch the Spring Festival Gala together, chat together, and my family is no exception. That year, our family and some relatives around the table to eat hot pot, mom and dad ate while chatting. I just sat there quietly enjoying the delicious food. After dinner, we put the fireworks in the square, a branch of a dragon like fireworks into the sky, blooming in the bright moonlight beside. I also tried to put one, but since then I cant put the fireworks again. The Spring Festival is really a beautiful day.

导读：新年快到了，长辈又要准备红包了，英语作文压岁钱该怎么写？

篇一：压岁钱Lucky money

The spring festival is the loveliest in China， which is comes in February. Everyone loves it so much that prepare lots of things of the spring festival before it comes. In the spring festival holiday， people do many things， such as eat the dinner on the New Year‘s， set off fireworks, stroll the famous fair likes “Baiyunguan” fair.

二月份时候的春节在中国是最可爱的节日。每个人都非常喜欢它，所以在春节到来之前就准备了很东西。在春节期间，人们会做许多事情，比如，在新年吃晚餐，放烟火，拜访著名的庙宇，就像“白云观“。

On the first day of lunar， the young generation congratulates the old generation with “Happy New Year!”

阳历的第一天，年轻的一代人会向老一代人祝贺“新年快乐”

Then the old generation will give the young some lucky money which wrapped with red paper or red envelope. Because red is a color with joyful. Lucky money means the old generation‘s love to the young and hope them can have a good luck in this new year. This is the lucky money which lots of the young want.

老一代人会把压岁钱用红纸或者红包包起来给年轻的一代人。因为红色是开心的象征。压岁钱意味着老一代对年轻一代的爱，而且希望他们能在新的一年里拥有好的运气。这就是大多数年轻人都想要的压岁钱。

篇二：Kids, How Would You Deal With Your “Lucky Money”?

Kids would be overexcited during Spring Festival, for the simple reason that they would receive “lucky money”from their parents as well as other elderships.

According to ancient custom, the elder generations put a certain number of money in a red envelope, and give it to the children of the family, wishing that the children would grow up healthily and happily.

How to reasonably deal with those “lucky money”is a serious question for parents and children alike. As far as I am concerned, two ways below are worth to be considered. One sensible way is to save the money for higher education. With the development of economic and urbanization, the competition is becoming more and fiercer. The demand of people with high degree is increasing, which means, the threshold for a “white-collar”job is higher and higher. Therefore, accepted into a college is viewed as a necessary and an initial step for a good job. Given the increasing cost of college education and postgraduate education, saving the “lucky money”is at least an economic guarantees for higher education. The other way is investing, and by investing I do not mean buy stocks or bonds, but investing in self-improvement. For example, purchasing some books, literature, politic, philosophy, whatever you like.

As Bacon said, “reading makes a full man”, investing in books you are interested in would expand your knowledge and improve your attainment. However, not only books could attribute to self-improvement, art and sports or other skills could also do. Invest some money to learn piano, guitar, etc.; or to learn dancing, swimming, tennis…Or just to learn how to drive is a worthwhile acquirement. All in all, you could name other good ways to use“lucky money” of course, as long as it is worthwhile, and saving for education and investing in self-improvement are definitely among them.

春节自古以来就是中国的传统节日，也是人们新的一年的生活的开始。在这期间里，全家老少都一起“迎新春，除旧岁”，我们家也不例外。

除夕那天，是我最开心的一天。我早早地把写好的春联准备好，就等着爷爷的胶水了。对于贴春联，我可是个行家，家里春联每年都是我贴的。而且不只是春联，还有那个大大的“福”

字。这“福”字必须要倒贴，寓意是“福”到了的意思，希望在新的一年里能福气满满。

接下来的一下午，可都是大人们的活儿啦，那就是包饺子。这个活儿看起来容易，学起来可就难多了。这不，这次我也想试试。

首先，把馅铺在面皮儿上，再把面皮儿捏起来，这样一个饺子就完成了。我照着“口诀”捏了几个饺子，造型上都挺美观的，可实际上却不怎么样。可能是没捏紧的缘故吧，我包的那几个饺子一到锅里就全露馅了，无奈的我啊，只能吃着面皮喝汤了。

其实除夕的高潮啊是在晚上。我们早早地吃完饺子便下楼放鞭炮了。胆大点儿的毛头小子就放“炮仗”，女孩子则放烟花之类的。当鞭炮声响起来时，才发觉有了浓浓的年味，这才是春节的开始。

除夕后一天就是大年初一，是晚辈给老辈拜年的时候，这一天必须说吉祥的话，寓示着这一年吉祥如意。虽然年轻人不计较什么，但是还是要给爷爷奶奶拜年。穿上新衣服，脑袋里搜罗着各种吉祥话，可无非就是那套“万事如意，身体健康”、“福如东海，寿比南山”之类的，只是老人们听着高兴，做晚辈的也跟着高兴。就这一句话，结束了大年初一，跑断了脚后跟，也磨破了嘴皮子。

春节离我们不远了，我们大家也都盼望着这一个盛大的节日。对我们来说，春节就像西方的圣诞节一样隆重。而且是我们小孩最爱的节日，既可以尽情玩耍，也不用做作业。

每当除夕夜，全国上下欢聚一堂，我们家九口人全都在一起，大人都在那里包水饺做着可口的饭菜，有意思的是，每次我的姨夫都在那里炸肉，饥饿的我时不时“偷”一块尝尝，也能解解馋。因为我们小孩不用做作业，所以就在那看春节联欢晚会节目，看腻了，就到自家小院里玩耍，我们最爱玩的莫过于放鞭炮了，每次舅舅或者妈妈早早的就给我买上一大包鞭炮，几乎把所有样式都买了一遍。都由我和姐姐放，让我们过过瘾。

到了春节早晨，爆竹声震耳欲聋，窗外礼花朝我微笑。我们一家早早的起了床，我也换上了新衣裳，你可能要问了，为什么要早早的起床呢?因为爸爸妈妈和我要回老家看看，大约开半小时的车，我们就来到了老家，老家的空气就是好，我也能体验体验乡下的生活，更主要的是我不是闷在家里，而是和我的哥哥一起玩，玩一整天，然后再回来。

然后接下来的六七天时间，我们要到许多亲戚家里，每次到那里，大人们一说话就是一两个小时，而我们小孩只能在那里做着，十分无聊。虽然我感觉十分无聊没有意思，但是转念，觉得至少比闷在家里好，还能赚上一笔钱(压岁钱)。

春节呀春节，你快点来，我们大家都期盼着你。

Chinese New Year or Spring Festival is the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays。 It is sometimes called the "Lunar New Year" by English speakers。 The festival traditionally begins on the first day of the first month (Chinese: 正月; pinyin: zhēng yuè) in the Chinese calendar and ends on the 15th; this day is called Lantern Festival。 Chinese New Years Eve is known as chú xī。 It literally means "Year-pass Eve"。

Chinese New Year is the longest and most important festivity in the Lunar Calendar。 The origin of Chinese New Year is itself centuries old and gains significance because of several myths and traditions。 Ancient Chinese New Year is a reflection on how the people behaved and what they believed in the most。

Celebrated in areas with large populations of ethnic Chinese， Chinese New Year is considered a major holiday for the Chinese and has had influence on the new year celebrations of its geographic neighbors， as well as cultures with whom the Chinese have had extensive interaction。 These include Koreans (Seollal)， Tibetans and Bhutanese (Losar)， Mongolians (Tsagaan Sar)， Vietnamese (T?t)， and formerly the Japanese before 1873 (Oshogatsu)。 Outside of Mainland China， Hong Kong， Macau， and Taiwan， Chinese New Year is also celebrated in countries with significant Han Chinese populations， such as Singapore， Indonesia， Laos， Malaysia， the Philippines， and Thailand。 In countries such as Australia， Canada and the United States， although Chinese New Year is not an official holiday， many ethnic Chinese hold large celebrations and Australia Post， Canada Post， and the US Postal Service issues New Years themed stamps。

Within China， regional customs and traditions concerning the celebration of the Chinese new year vary widely。 People will pour out their money to buy presents， decoration， material， food， and clothing。 It is also the tradition that every family thoroughly cleans the house to sweep away any ill-fortune in hopes to make way for good ining luck。 Windows and doors will be decorated with red colour paper-cuts and couplets with popular themes of “happiness”， “wealth”， and “longevity”。 On the Eve of Chinese New Year， supper is a feast with families。 Food will include such items as pigs， ducks， chicken and sweet delicacies。 The family will end the night with firecrackers。 Early the next morning， children will greet their parents by wishing them a healthy and happy new year， and receive money in red paper envelopes。 The Chinese New Year tradition is a great way to reconcile forgetting all grudges， and sincerely wish peace and happiness for everyone。

Although the Chinese calendar traditionally does not use continuously numbered years， outside China its years are often numbered from the reign of Huangdi。 But at least three different years numbered 1 are now used by various scholars， making the year 2009 "Chinese Year" 4707， 4706， or 4646。
