On the sixth to the 10th day, the Chinese visit their relatives and friends freely. They also visit the temples to pray for good fortune and health.

闹元宵赏花灯是我们中国人的传统习惯。快乐的元宵节转眼就到了，大街上张灯结彩，一片喜气洋洋。

晚餐过后，我和爸爸、妈妈开开心心一起开车去顺峰山公园看花灯。我们来到顺峰山公园大门前，欢迎我们的是一座栩栩如生的“凤凰”。“凤凰”的两旁还有两朵花，两朵花里还有金色大字，左边的是万事胜意，另外一边是如意吉祥。“凤凰”还一时闪蓝光，一时闪红光，一时又变色，色彩缤纷，变幻无穷，充满节日喜庆气氛。我们开车进去，发现车多得可以摆一个迷宫都行了，想找一个车位停都有点困难。我看见顺峰山公园不但停车位是快停满了，就是公园里人数也多得惊人，人山人海。我发现游人中有的是我们学校的同学，有的是从千里迢迢赶过来的外地游客，还有的是附近的居民来到这里跳舞健身。大部分的人都是来看元宵花灯的，只有少部分是坚持锻炼的居民。

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。

介绍元宵节风俗的英语作文

The Lantern Festival falls on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month, usually in February or March in the Gregorian calendar. As early as the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 25), it had become a festival with great significance.

This days important activity is watching lanterns. Throughout the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220), Buddhism flourished in China. One emperor heard that Buddhist monks would watch sarira, or remains from the cremation of Buddhas body, and light lanterns to worship Buddha on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month, so he ordered to light lanterns in the imperial palace and temples to show respect to Buddha on this day. Later, the Buddhist rite developed into a grand festival among common people and its influence expanded from the Central Plains to the whole of China.

Till today, the lantern festival is still held each year around the country. Lanterns of various shapes and sizes are hung in the streets, attracting countless visitors. Children will hold self-made or bought lanterns to stroll with on the streets, extremely excited. "Guessing lantern riddles"is an essential part of the Festival.

Lantern owners write riddles on a piece of paper and post them on the lanterns. If visitors have solutions to the riddles, they can pull the paper out and go to the lantern owners to check their answer. If they are right, they will get a little gift. The activity emerged during peoples enjoyment of lanterns in the Song Dynasty (960-1279). As riddle guessing is interesting and full of wisdom, it has become popular among all social strata.

People will eat yuanxiao, or rice dumplings, on this day, so it is also called the "Yuanxiao Festival."Yuanxiao also has another name, tangyuan. It is small dumpling balls made of glutinous rice flour with rose petals, sesame, bean paste, jujube paste, walnut meat, dried fruit, sugar and edible oil as filling. Tangyuan can be boiled, fried or steamed. It tastes sweet and delicious. What’s more, tangyuan in Chinese has a similar

pronunciation with "tuanyuan”, meaning reunion. So people eat them to denote union, harmony and happiness for the family.

In the daytime of the Festival, performances such as a dragon lantern dance, a lion dance, a land boat dance, a yangge dance, walking on stilts and beating drums while dancing will be staged. On the night, except for magnificent lanterns, fireworks form a

beautiful scene. Most families spare some fireworks from the Spring Festival and let them off in the Lantern Festival. Some local governments will even organize a fireworks party. On the night when the first full moon enters the New Year, people become really intoxicated by the imposing fireworks and bright moon in the sky.

元宵节英文介绍译文:

元宵节

每年农历的正月十五日，春节刚过，迎来的就是中国的传统节日--元宵节。

元宵主要的活动就是看灯。东汉明帝时期，明帝提倡佛教，听说佛教有正月十五日僧人观佛舍利，点灯敬佛的做法，就命令这一天夜晚在皇宫和寺庙里点灯敬佛，令士族庶民都挂灯。以后这种佛教礼仪节日逐渐形成民间盛大的节日。该节经历了由宫廷到民间，由中原到全国的发展过程。

直到今天，元宵点灯的习俗仍然在中国的各地流传的，各式各样美丽的花灯在这一天都会点亮，孩子们提着自制的灯笼走街串巷，非常高兴。

猜灯谜也是元宵节的一项重要活动，花灯的主人会将谜面写在灯笼上，挂在门口，如果有人可以猜中，就能得到小小的礼物。这项活动最早起源于宋朝，因为谜语能启迪智慧又饶有兴趣，所以流传过程中深受社会各阶层的欢迎。

民间过元宵节吃元宵的习俗。元宵由糯米制成，或实心，或带馅。馅有豆沙、白糖、山楂、各类果料等，食用时煮、煎、蒸、炸皆可。起初，人们把这种食物叫“浮圆子”，后来又叫“汤团”或“汤圆”，这些名称“团圆”字音相近，取团圆之意，象征全家人团团圆圆，和睦幸福，人们也以此怀念离别的亲人,寄托了对未来生活的美好愿望。

随着时间的推移，元宵节的活动越来越多，白天有耍龙灯、耍狮子、踩高跷、划旱船扭秧歌、打太平鼓等传统民俗表演。到了夜晚，除了五颜六色的美花灯之外，还有艳丽多姿的烟火。大多数家庭会在春节时留下一些烟花等到元宵节这天燃放，而一些地方政府也会举办烟花大会，当新年的第一个月圆之夜在盛大的烟火表演中来临时，人们都陶醉在这令人难忘了烟花与皎洁的明月中。

“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 Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first month is a traditional festival in China. This year I had a special and lively night without curfew.

Special, because this is the first time Im not at home for the festival. In the past, on the 15th day of the first month of each year, our family was ready early to see the lanterns. Every year, I can enjoy the beautiful, novel and colorful lanterns, as well as the beautiful, charming and colorful fireworks. According to my mother, the lantern show in Zhangye is clearer than that in Linze. Therefore, with the consent of my parents, I went to my uncles house for the Lantern Festival.

My uncle cooked the dumplings early. They were round and sweet to the heart, but I only ate a few and pestered my uncle to take me to watch the lights.

When we got to the square, ah, it was a sea of people. Around it, there were lanterns of different sizes and shapes, which made people dizzy. There are red goldfish lanterns, Fuwa lanterns symbolizing the Olympic Games and peacock lanterns... This year is the year of the horse. Of course, the horse is the protagonist. There are horse spring lanterns, shepherd childrens horse lanterns, horse fighting lanterns and rows of shining lanterns. I wish people to take the lead in their body, career and life this year.

In the distance, the flashing lighthouse attracted me. It took us a lot of effort to squeeze into the front. The high lighthouse is inlaid with beautiful neon lights, red, blue, yellow, green and colorful. It stands in the middle of the square. It is very beautiful.

After a while, we came to the park again. There are many lights hanging here, especially those flashing in the willows. There are lovely doll lights, beautiful peacock lights and golden ingot lights, which are really unforgettable.

At this time, with the roaring sound, the sky of the square suddenly lit up. Oh, it turned out that fireworks began to set off. This is what I look forward to most. I saw fireworks bloom in the air like beautiful flowers, and then slowly disappear. Some crossed the sky like beautiful meteors, and some scattered flowers from the sky in the distance. It was very beautiful.

How lively Zhangye is on the fifteenth day of the first month and how charming the night scene of the Lantern Festival is!

正月十五元宵节是中国的传统节日，今年我度过了一个特殊而热闹的无宵夜。

说特殊，因为这是我第一次不在家过节。以前，每年正月十五，我们全家早早就准备好了去看花灯，每年，我都能欣赏到漂亮新颖、五彩缤纷的花灯，还会看到美丽迷人、五颜六色的焰火。听妈妈说，张掖的灯展比临泽更清亮，所以，我征得爸妈同意，到舅舅家过元宵。

舅舅早早就煮好了汤圆，圆圆的，从口甜到心，但我只吃了几个就缠着舅舅带我去观灯。

到了广场，啊，真是人山人海，四周挂满了大大小小、形态各异的花灯，让人目不暇接。有火红的金鱼灯，象征奥运的福娃灯，开屏的孔雀灯……今年是马年，马当然是主角了，有马闹春灯，牧童戏马灯，斗马灯，一排排闪亮的马灯祝福人们今年身体一马当先，事业一马当先，生活越来越好。

远处，一闪一闪的灯塔吸引了我，我们费了好大的劲才挤到前面，高高的灯塔上镶着漂亮的霓虹灯，红的，蓝的，黄的，绿的，五彩纷呈，耸立在广场中央，美丽极了。

过了一会，我们又来到了公园，这里也挂了许多灯，特别是闪烁在柳树丛中的，有可爱娃娃灯，美丽的孔雀灯，金灿灿的元宝灯，真叫人念念不忘啊。

这时，随着轰轰的声响，广场的天空一下子亮了起来，噢，原来是开始放焰火了，这可是我最期待的了，只见焰火像一朵朵漂亮的花在空中绽放，又缓缓消失，有的像美丽的流星一样划过天际，有的像天女散花一般，从远处的天空慢慢飘落，美丽极了。

正月十五的张掖多么热闹，元宵节的夜景多么迷人啊!

It is the Lantern Festival. My grandfather, grandmother and father are all in shanxi. There are only my mother, my aunt, my sister and me. My mother and aunt are looking at the computer. I teach my sister to skateboard.

First, I asked my sister to step on the skateboard with her left foot and gently push her right foot to jump. But she jumped several times and couldnt jump. So I asked her to stand on a skateboard with her right foot on the board. But she could not walk two steps and fell, but she fell several times without losing heart. Once, when she slipped more than two meters, I was happy to give her a hand. She was also a brave and persistent person. My sister jumped up too.

This day, although my grandpa, grandma, and father are not at home, but this Lantern Festival I have a very happy!

相传，春秋时节的一天，楚昭王路过长江，看到江面上有漂浮着的东西，便命人打捞上来，仔细一看是一种外白内红可以吃的东西。为了弄清楚它究竟是什么，楚昭王便前去请教孔子。孔子看见这种飘在水上的东西之后，说：“这个东西名叫浮萍果，谁要是得到了它，就表明着个人将要复兴国家。”楚昭王便下令每年的正月十五，每家每户都要煮这种外白内红的元宵吃。

千百年来人们都还在吃着元宵，以表示人们对亲人的思念。每当过元宵节的时侯，我们一家人聚在姥姥一起聊天，等爸爸和妈妈把元宵煮好了的时侯，我和表弟表妹一起拥上去争着吃那又香又甜很滑嫩的元宵后。大家又热热闹闹地聚在一起看电视，吃糖，大家欢乐无比。

听姥姥说，原来的元宵仅是放了红糖，白糖和豆沙等普通的原料。现在已经用了一些上好的黑芝麻，巧克力，水果等。真是应有尽有。现在的元宵和原来的元宵相比味道更好、营养价值更高了。

我特别喜欢我们中国的传统节日。不仅可以吃到美食，还可以让我门团圆在一起，开开心心地渡过一个欢乐的节日。
