广场前面就是花灯展示区，五彩缤纷的花灯在夜色中闪耀着迷人的光彩。这次花灯不仅环保，而且五光十色，光彩夺目。我们发现今年的花灯响应了环保低碳，全部是用废物利用精心制作的。就拿“一帆风顺”来说吧，用了废报纸和旧绳子拼出一艘帆船，比喻今年顺顺利利，得到了人们的喜爱，所以得到了银奖。我最喜欢的花灯还是“蛇年平安”的花灯。它是一个苹果形状的网状灯笼，中间有一条蛇突出一个舌头，造型特别可爱。那个灯笼用的材料是竹子等环保材料，做得那么精美别致，创意无限。长大以后我一定要像做“蛇年平安”花灯的人一样，学会环保，用无限的想象力做一些环保的小制作，支持环境保护，做一个有道德有创意的文明人。

今天，是一年一度正月的元宵节。等到了晚上，我们一家人去公园去看烟花。我们到了公园，这里人山人海，热闹非凡。我们随着人流到了楼房上，打开窗户，眼望八方，不知从哪放起。就这样等着，盼着。

开始放烟花了，我心潮澎湃。首先，几颗明亮的火星一颗接着一颗冲上了灰暗的天空，刹那间，火星炸开了，变成了一朵朵五光十色的巨大的花蕊，又好似一位美丽的仙女，把希望的花瓣洒向了人间。有时候又像一团团金色的火光“毕剥毕剥”地炸开来。红的，黄的，蓝的，绿的，紫的各种各样的颜色把天空打扮得绚利多彩，特别是是紫色，那么耀眼，使人心旷神怡。炸完了，在场的观众一呼百应。

接着，还放了玉花门的烟花，千姿百态。令人滑稽的烟火像一条条活蹦乱跳的小鱼，又像一只只到处乱跑的老鼠从又粗又短的爆竹里蹿出来，飞来飞去，数量越来越多，千丝万缕。彩虹桥令人拍手叫好：两个爆竹，一个烟花飞向左边，另一个飞向右边，形成了一座五颜六色的彩虹桥，又似月牙。许多烟花令人赞叹不已。有的像许花环套在一起，有的像一把撑开的彩色雨伞，有的像彗星，还有的像长长的瀑布倾泻而下，又像下起了圆圆的小水珠，壮观极了。天空已是光辉灿烂，烟花更是光彩夺目，目不暇接。

不过最出众的还是“流星雨”，只见火苗一飞冲天，顷刻间在空中炸开，声音如雷贯耳，炸开的流星拖着细长的尾巴四散奔逃，又飘飘然燃地落了下来，拖去了小尾巴，瞧!尾巴们成了才展开带黄色的嫩叶的柳丝，随后升腾起一缕白烟，宛若春风袅袅，我的思绪飞到了“碧绿妆成一树高，万条垂下绿丝绦”的柳树群中。夜空像是一条包罗万象的锦缎，绣上了一个又一个五光十色的花卉，绚丽多彩……

烟火晚会结束了，我依然沉浸在那火树银花美丽的境界中，久久不能平静。我真希望今后的生活，也能象这烟花一样绚丽多彩

The Lantern Festival is our traditional festival in China. The custom of the Lantern Festival mainly mainly eats dumplings.

元宵节是我们中国的传统节日。元宵节的习俗主要就以吃汤圆为主。

今年的元宵节我们家和以前过的不一样。以前，我们是去超市买别人已经做好了的，回家只要放在过了煮好了就可以吃了，可是那样过节是在是太没意思了。所以，今年的元宵节，我们自己包汤圆。

我跟着姥姥一步一步地学着。先把准备好的一包糯米倒入一个较大的碗或盆里，倒入十分之七的温水，把这个面调均匀后放好。面做好了，该弄馅了。这次是用黑芝麻馅的，买馅的时候这个是一大快，要先用刀切的一小块一小块的，不要太小，也不要太大。再把他一块一块的搓成圆形。

面和馅都做好了，就要开始包了。先从面团上掐一块面下来，捏成扁饼形，拿一粒先放在最中间，把旁边的面往上推，逐渐变成一个圆，再用手捏一捏不平的地方，搓成一个团，再在面上滚几圈，一个汤圆就完成了。

就这样，一个又一个的汤圆在我的手中诞生了。最重要的是下锅煮。先把锅里的水烧开，然后把汤圆扔进水里，煮到汤圆向上漂，水“咕嘟咕嘟”冒泡时，就是已经煮熟了。把火关了，把汤圆捞出来，就可以吃了。

吃着自己做的汤圆，心里也甜滋滋的。

“正月十五闹元宵”，每年春节过后的农历正月十五是我国的元宵节，又叫“灯节”和“上元节”，是中国自古以来就在民间流传的另一个已有2000多年历史的传统佳节。

元宵节起源于西汉王朝。相传汉惠帝死后飞扬跋扈的吕后篡权，任用了大量吕氏亲信，宦官当权。吕后死后，公元前179年，汉文帝在老忠臣协助下登基，博采众议，在正月十五这天，一举扫除了诸吕残余势力。因古代“夜”与“宵”同义。正月又叫“元月”，为了纪念正月十五这一天，汉文帝就将此日定为“元宵节”。从此，经隋至唐，到唐玄宗李隆基时，为显示大唐兴盛，国泰民安，逐沿用旧俗，每到“元宵节”这天，张灯结彩，欢庆狂欢，“一曲笙歌春如海，千门灯火夜似昼”，使这一节日更加兴盛。

节日期间，灯月交辉，游人如织，正如唐代诗人张说所描绘的：“花萼楼前雨露新，长安城里太平人。龙衔火树千灯焰，鸡踏莲花万岁春”。李商隐的诗曰：“月色灯光满帝城，香车宝辇溢通衢”，描绘了当时观灯时车水马龙的宏大场面。流传到宋代，在元宵之夜悬灯欢乐的规模更加盛况空前，花灯的装饰造型也更精美，灯节带给人们更多欢乐，更多光明。诗人苏东坡有诗云：“灯光家之有，笙歌处之楼”;大词人辛弃疾也曾有著名词作：“东风夜放花千树，更吹落，星如雨。宝马雕车香满路。风箫声动，玉壶光转，一夜鱼龙舞。”这些诗词描绘了当时元宵佳节满城花灯齐放，通宵达旦，歌舞笙乐的壮观场面。到了清代，据《京都风俗志》记载：清代太平年间每年元宵节都是：“通街委巷，灯光星布珠悬，皎如白昼”，“王孙贵客、士女儿童，倾城出游，谓之逛灯”，由此可见元宵节观灯的热闹场面。

到近代，这一习俗代代流传，至今仍经久不衰。老百姓家家户户都在门前和屋内悬挂彩灯、大红灯笼，全家团圆，围坐一起，观花赏灯吃元宵，象征着“团圆美满，丰收和睦”，同时这一天还标志着是春节欢乐的最后一幕，热热闹闹过完了“元宵节”，才算是真正过完了春节。

宋代诗人欧阳修诗曰：“去年元宵时，花市灯如昼。月上柳梢头，人约黄昏后。”说明在这灯好月明人团圆的喜庆佳节里，亲朋好友相约团聚，早已是民间庆春节的重要习俗。如果在团聚时捧去一把鲜花，携带上一个花篮，让美丽娇艳的鲜花送来一个吉祥幸福的欢乐好运，会给朋友相聚增添无比欢乐的心情，这时应该选用寓意团团美美、如意祥瑞的花材，如火红的火鹤花、满枝悬挂形似红爆竹的炮仗花、鲜艳的孔雀草、象征明媚春天光明的银芽柳、闪烁洁白繁星的满天星等，都会展现出一片祥和安乐的氛围，为亲朋好友送去一年吉祥幸福的祝愿。

正月十五闹元宵，每年春节过后的农历正月十五是我国的元宵节，又叫灯节和上元节，是中国自古以来就在民间流传的另一个已有2000多年历史的传统佳节。

元宵节起源于西汉王朝。相传汉惠帝死后飞扬跋扈的吕后篡权，任用了大量吕氏亲信，宦官当权。吕后死后，公元前179年，汉文帝在老忠臣协助下登基，博采众议，在正月十五这天，一举扫除了诸吕残余势力。因古代夜与宵同义。正月又叫元月，为了纪念正月十五这一天，汉文帝就将此日定为元宵节。从此，经隋至唐，到唐玄宗李隆基时，为显示大唐兴盛，国泰民安，逐沿用旧俗，每到元宵节这天，张灯结彩，欢庆狂欢，一曲笙歌春如海，千门灯火夜似昼，使这一节日更加兴盛。

节日期间，灯月交辉，游人如织，正如唐代诗人张说所描绘的：花萼楼前雨露新，长安城里太平人。龙衔火树千灯焰，鸡踏莲花万岁春。李商隐的诗曰：月色灯光满帝城，香车宝辇溢通衢，描绘了当时观灯时车水马龙的宏大场面。流传到宋代，在元宵之夜悬灯欢乐的规模更加盛况空前，花灯的装饰造型也更精美，灯节带给人们更多欢乐，更多光明。诗人苏东坡有诗云：灯光家之有，笙歌处之楼大词人辛弃疾也曾有著名词作：东风夜放花千树，更吹落，星如雨。宝马雕车香满路。风箫声动，玉壶光转，一夜鱼龙舞。这些诗词描绘了当时元宵佳节满城花灯齐放，通宵达旦，歌舞笙乐的壮观场面。到了清代，据《京都风俗志》记载：清代太平年间每年元宵节都是：通街委巷，灯光星布珠悬，皎如白昼，王孙贵客、士女儿童，倾城出游，谓之逛灯，由此可见元宵节观灯的热闹场面。

到近代，这一习俗代代流传，至今仍经久不衰。老百姓家家户户都在门前和屋内悬挂彩灯、大红灯笼，全家团圆，围坐一起，观花赏灯吃元宵，象征着团圆美满，丰收和睦，同时这一天还标志着是春节欢乐的最后一幕，热热闹闹过完了元宵节，才算是真正过完了春节。

宋代诗人欧阳修诗曰：去年元宵时，花市灯如昼。月上柳梢头，人约黄昏后。说明在这灯好月明人团圆的喜庆佳节里，亲朋好友相约团聚，早已是民间庆春节的重要习俗。如果在团聚时捧去一把鲜花，携带上一个花篮，让美丽娇艳的鲜花送来一个吉祥幸福的欢乐好运，会给朋友相聚增添无比欢乐的心情，这时应该选用寓意团团美美、如意祥瑞的花材，如火红的火鹤花、满枝悬挂形似红爆竹的炮仗花、鲜艳的孔雀草、象征明媚春天光明的银芽柳、闪烁洁白繁星的满天星等，都会展现出一片祥和安乐的氛围，为亲朋好友送去一年吉祥幸福的祝愿。

The chinese new year is now popularly known as the spring festival because it starts from the begining of spring (the first of the twenty-four terms in coodination with the changes of nature). its origin is too old to be traced.

Several explanations are hanging around.

All agree, however, that the word nian, which in modern chinese solely means year, wasoriginally the name of a monster beast that started to prey on people the night before the beginning of a new year.

One legend goes that the beast nian had a very big mouth that would swallow a great many people with one bite. People were very scared.

One day, an old man came to their rescue, offering to subdue nian.

To nian he said, i hear say that you are very capable, but can you swallow the other beasts of prey on earth instead of people who are by no means of your worthy opponents? so, it didswallow many of the beasts of prey on earth that also harrassed people and their domestic animals from time to time.

一年一度的元宵节来了，我一直都没有认真的看过花灯，这次我一定要把握住这次机会好好的看看花灯。

正月十五就是元宵节，我和奶奶、弟弟、爸爸、妈妈……一起去到街上去看花灯。哇!到处人山人海，看来都是来看花灯、看烟花的……街上到处都喜洋洋的，让人们都感受到了元宵节的气氛。“噼里啪啦，噼里啪啦”不知是谁放起了鞭炮镇的我们耳朵都疼了，突然天上闪起了漂亮烟花紧接着“啪”地响起了一声巨响有的像流星雨从天空中落下，有的又像一群孔雀在天空一起开屏点亮了天空，空中的烟花既漂亮又叫人眼花缭乱，过了一段时间元宵节晚会开始了，我和大家一起围在电视机旁看起了精彩的联欢晚会，我的嘴里吃着好吃的冰糖葫芦，眼里看着好看的联欢晚会。“奶奶大餐还没做好吗?”弟弟响亮而又焦急的声音让我从电视机的精彩节目回过神来。奶奶回答说：“好了，快好了。”“终于好了!”我紧跟着说了一句。菜类有“红红火火、虎虎生威……”元宵终于上来了，看那汤里的元宵就像一个个“珍珠”即好吃又漂亮。

时间一秒秒的过去，转眼间三个小时过去了。可是我的心还是在那欢乐的气氛中……

正月十五吃元宵，在我国是由来已久习俗。人们在元宵节吃汤圆，实际上是思念亲人、渴望团圆的意思。

Eating Tangyuan is an important tradition for the Lantern Festival. Tangyuan, also know as yuanxiao, is a Chinese food made from glutinous rice flour mixed with a small amount of water to form balls and is then cooked and served in boiling water.

吃汤圆是元宵节的一项重要习俗。汤圆，又名“元宵”，是由糯米粉等做的球形食品，一般有馅料，煮熟带汤吃。

Traditionally, the balls come stuffed with sweet black sesame paste, although the fillings can vary. Tangyuan are eaten during Lantern Festival because of a homophone for union.

通常用黑芝麻做馅，但又不仅限于黑芝麻。据说元宵象征合家团圆美好，吃元宵意味着新的一年合家幸福、团团圆圆，所以正月十五元宵必备。

Decorating and hanging lanterns is the main tradition of the festival, with lanterns big and small hung around households, parks, streets and other public spaces. Red lanterns of various shape and type will attract countless visitors to watch.

正月十五赏花灯是元宵节必有的另一项习俗。人们把大大小小的花灯悬挂于家门口、公园、街道或者其他公共场所。各式各样的红灯笼将会吸引无数的游客前来观赏。

Solving riddles on lanterns has been a popular tradition since the Song Dynasty. People write riddles on paper and stick them to the lanterns and if someone guesses correctly, they can pull the riddle off. The notes often contain messages of good fortune and wishes.

从宋代开始，猜灯谜就是一项非常受欢迎的民俗活动。人们把谜语写到纸上并悬之于灯，供人猜射。通常，谜底都是各种吉祥话和祝福。

The lion dance is one of the oldest traditions to celebrate the Chinese New Year. In ancient times, people regarded the lion as a symbol of bravery and strength and believed the dance could drive away bad fortune to protect people and their livestock. The custom has continued to the modern day and lion dances are performed at important events on the Chinese calendar, such as the Lantern Festival, to bring good luck.

舞狮子是另一项庆祝新春的古老习俗。在古代，人们把狮子作为勇气和力量的象征，认为舞狮可以消灾降福。所以舞狮子的传统就延续至今，并且每逢佳节或庆典，如元宵节都会以舞狮子来祈求好运。

Dragon dance is a form of traditional dance and performance in Chinese culture. Like the lion dance it is most often seen in festival celebration. The dance is performed by a team of dancers who manipulate a long flexible figure of a dragon using poles positioned at regular intervals along the length of the dragon.

舞龙灯是中国独具特色的民俗活动。与舞狮子一样，每逢佳节，人们都要耍龙灯。表演者由数十人组成，每人用一杆间隔支撑起一条长龙。

Chinese dragons are a symbol of China, and they are believed to bring good luck to people, therefore the longer the dragon in the dance, the more luck it will bring to the community.

龙是中国的象征，相传龙能够带来吉祥和好运。耍的龙灯越长，就越能给当地人民带来好运。因此，每逢春节、元宵节，人们都会举行耍龙灯的活动。

Walking on stilts, or Cai Gaoqiao, is another popular traditional performance for the Lantern Festival, especially in Northern China. According to the archives, our Chinese ancestors began using stilts to help them gather fruits from trees. This practical use of stilts gradually developed into a kind of folk dance.

踩高跷是元宵节的另外一项重要民俗，尤其是在北方地区。根据记载，我们的祖先踩高跷是为了从树上摘果子。之后，高跷就发展成为一种群众性技艺表演艺术。

As you all know, the Lantern Festival is a traditional festival of the Chinese nation, people all over the country are watching lanterns on that day to eat yuanxiao, our hometown is no exception!

Lantern Festival day everywhere decorated, beaming. He is the most lively, dragon dance, lion dance dragon is made of cloth, some with ten men dance, in front of the tap is a beads.

大家都知道，元宵节是中华民族的传统节日，在那天全国各地的人们都在看花灯吃元宵，我们家乡这也不例外!

元宵节这天到处张灯结彩，喜气洋洋。他别是舞龙、舞狮最热闹，龙是花布做的，有的用十个人舞，龙头前面有一颗珠子。这个珠子叫“龙珠”，龙舞起来时很好看，像真的的龙一样，观众不断叫好，有些观众去摸龙，他们说摸了龙能治百病，一年都不会生病，舞的人舞的满头大汗，观众拍手叫好。

说舞龙精彩，还有根有意思的，这天人们都要走出户外，到处游玩，亲戚们一起去游玩，听他们说，又完了以后一年都不会生病，不过我想人们出去走一走，还是有一定道理的，春节间吃的好，喝的好，人们出去活动活动，锻炼身体当然不会生病。

The 15th day of the 1st lunar month is the Chinese Lantern Festival because the first lunar month is called yuan-month and in the ancient times people called night Xiao. The 15th day is the first night to see a full moon. So the day is also called Yuan Xiao Festival in China.

According to the Chinese tradition, at the very beginning of a new year, when there is a bright full moon hanging in the sky, there should be thousands of colorful lanterns hung out for people to appreciate. At this time, people will try to solve the puzzles on the lanterns and eat yuanxiao (glutinous rice ball) and get all their families united in the joyful atmosphere.

【翻译】

元宵节正月十五吃元宵的的习俗由来已久，元宵也叫“汤圆”、“圆子”。据说元宵象征合家团圆，吃元宵意味新的一年合家幸福、万事如意。

元宵节闹花灯的习俗起源于道教的“三元说”;正月十五日为上元节，七月十五日为中元节，十月十五日为下元节。主管上、中、下三元的分别为天、地、人三官，天官喜乐，故上元节要燃灯。元宵节的节期与节俗活动，是随历史的发展而延长、扩展的。就节期长短而言，汉代才一天，到唐代已为三天，宋代则长达五天，明代更是自初八点灯，一直到正月十七的夜里才落灯，整整十天。与春节相接，白昼为市，热闹非凡，夜间燃灯，蔚为壮观。特别是那精巧、多彩的灯火，更使其成为春节期间娱乐活动的高潮。至清代，又增加了舞龙、舞狮、跑旱船、踩高跷、扭秧歌等“百戏”内容，只是节期缩短为四到五天。

The Lantern Festival is a festival celebrated on the fifteenth day of the first month in the lunisolar year in the lunar calendar marking the last day of the lunar New Year celebration. During the Lantern Festival, children go out at night to temples carrying paper lanterns and solve riddles on the lanterns .It officially ends the Chinese New Year celebrations.

It is not to be confused with the Mid-Autumn Festival; which is sometimes also known as the "Lantern Festival" in locations such as Singapore and Malaysia.

In ancient times, the lanterns were fairly simple, and only the emperor and noblemen had large ornate ones .

[citation needed] In modern times, lanterns have been embellished with many complex designs. For example, lanterns are now often made in the shape of animals. The lanterns can symbolize the people letting go of their past selves and getting new ones, which they will let go of the next year. The lanterns are almost always red to symbolyze good

fortune.

In Hong Kong, it is commercialized as the Chinese equivalent of Valentines Day.

The Lantern Festival is both interesting and fulfilling, let my mood again into the climax, really beautiful! In the blast a firecrackers and fireworks, my sweet sleep.

一年一度的元宵节开始了。虽然我们必须上学，但班上似乎也暖洋洋的。下午，我们班破例召开了猜灯谜活动，但我对这些活动兴趣一般，因为我等着晚上……

终于熬到了晚上，天已经完全黑下，外面不时传来鞭炮和礼花声，天上一朵朵“花”争着开放，看，又一个大的礼花点燃了，“嗖”的一声第一发礼花冲向黑黑的夜空，随着“咚”的一声一朵绚丽的菊花开放在空中，紧接着一朵又一朵的礼花在黑夜中绽放，有红的，像牡丹;也有白的，是梨花;还有红白相间的礼花，更是美上加美。他们的形状也各不相同：有的像足球;有的像鸡蛋;甚至有的商家为了生意，还把自己的商标做成礼花，我就看到了一个三菱标志的礼花，我心想：现在的科技真高级，连礼花都能做成这样!

过了一会儿，礼花停了。可是声音却没停，因为我们听到了一种沙沙的声音，好像流星雨一样，正在我们仰头观望的时候，一些碎碎的、五颜六色的纸屑落在了我们的头上身上，我们叫着、笑着、躲着……

这个元宵节既有趣又充实，让我自己的心情又一次进入了高潮，真美呀!在阵阵鞭炮和礼花声中，我甜甜的睡了。
