有关春节习俗的初中英语作文(通用20篇)

时间过得好快啊，眨眼间春节就要来了。要知道春节是我们中国农历的新年，所以过年对我们中国人而言非常重要的！因此，春节前的准备也是必不可少的。

过年了！过年了！每家每户都在忙着贴春联，剃头发，做年夜饭……这是过年的习俗！有些习俗还很怪，无奈之下，我就去问正在贴春联的妈妈。

我看见妈妈将“福”字倒着贴，我固然知道为什么要倒着贴，将‘福’字倒着贴是一种习俗，‘福’倒贴说明‘福’倒（到）了！但我仍然问道：“过年有什么习俗和规矩啊？”妈妈停下手中的活，耐心地给我谈起来。

原来，以前过年还有一种放鞭炮的习俗，来源于“年兽”的故事。很久以前有一只“年兽”，长期居住深海底，到了除夕就跃出海面到处作恶。有一年一个老人用放炮，穿红衣，贴红春联的方法驱赶走“年兽”，这才得以平静，此后这个方法就流传开来。但是现在广州禁止燃放烟花爆竹，所以我们就不再进行这个活动了。

除夕这一天对我国来说是极为重要的。这天晚上，我们全家准备除旧迎新，吃团年饭。

吃年夜饭，是春节中每家每户最热闹愉快的时候。大年夜。丰盛的年菜摆满一桌 ，全家团聚，围坐桌旁，共吃团圆饭。人们既是享受满桌的佳肴，也是享受那份快乐的气氛，桌上有鸡、鹅、烧肉等等，一般少不了两样东西，一是火锅，一是鱼。火锅热气腾腾，说明红红火火；“鱼”和“余”谐音，喻意“年年有余”。最后一道甜食，祝福往后的日子甜甜蜜蜜。

今天我的收获太大了，知道了很多过年习俗的知识，不过我觉得有点迷信，但这又仿佛是一种乐趣，只要快乐就好，何必迷信不迷信？更何况这是传统的习俗，宁可信其有不可信其无啊！

我的家乡的春节习俗有很多很多，有大扫除、购年货、包饺子、拜年等等简直数不胜数。 我和爸爸也按照习俗去购年货。大街小巷里，买年货的人们数不胜数。小摊上，小店里的东西琳琅满目。摆满了鲜艳的衣服、有好吃的食品、以及各种各样的烟花爆竹。真是让我大饱眼福。我和爸爸又开始了疯狂大抢购，各种各样的东西被我们一扫而光，鞭炮、衣服、食品装了满满一大袋子。 我的家乡最少不了的一项习俗当然是包饺子了。

每逢春节，家家户户都要包饺子。我们家当然也是不例外的啦！ 除夕之夜，我和爸爸妈妈就开始包饺子啦！包饺子还需要技巧呢！我负责擀皮，我这里擀擀，那里擀擀，简直就是四不像。妈妈给我做了示范，包饺子应该均匀的擀，让它在擀面杖上转起来，这样就可以擀的圆圆的了。我按照妈妈的办法，怎么也不能把这个“淘气鬼”制服，还是擀的乱七八糟。

不过经过我九九八十一次的艰苦训练，我终于把这个淘气鬼给制服了。 我们这里包饺子还要包里面钱呢！只要谁吃着带钱的饺子，就代表着他在这一年中平安无事，运气很好。谁要是吃的最多，谁就是一家之主。我们家也包了好几个钱呢！我和爸爸妈妈都想吃到钱。我为了得到拿到那几个硬币，于是抢了很多的饺子。嘿嘿！我们家里的钱竟然被我吃到了三个，把我的牙都快咯坏了！

吃过饺子之后，我们当然还要放鞭炮，放鞭炮可是我们男生最喜欢干的事情。我们拿起一个烟花，迅速点燃。顿时，天空中出现了五彩的烟花，美丽 极了。 我们这的春节习俗最重要的就是拜年了。每逢过新年 时，家家户户都要回老家给爷爷奶奶 磕头，给他们拜一个年，说一些祝福 的话语。然后长辈们就会给我们一些压岁钱，发一个红包。然后再与亲戚们一起吃一顿团圆饭。表达互相之间的感情。

一年一度的春节是一年当中的重要节日，而在中国，每逢节日总有带着节日符号的习俗。春节作为重要的节日之一，自然也有其特有的习俗。而春节的习俗通常是比较多的，在这些习俗的影响下也形成了多种多样的食俗。

说到春节的习俗，通常有守岁和吃年夜饭等，而在这些习俗影响下形成的食俗有吃年糕、吃饺子、吃鸡蛋和吃鱼等，同时，这些吃食也被添上了不一样的寓意，其中年糕的寓意为“年年高”、饺子的寓意为“万万顺”、鸡蛋的寓意为“大元宝”，元宵的寓意为“团团圆圆”，而鱼的寓意则是“年年有余”。

不过，我国不同的地区在春节食俗方面还有着一定的差异，这也从侧面反映了我国饮食文化的多样性和丰富性。下面就从春节所吃的年糕、饺子和元宵来看一下吧?

一、年糕

年糕的种类有很多，通常北方会食用黄米年糕，南方会食用水磨年糕，西南地区则有糯粑粑，还有一些地区会有红龟年糕。

二、饺子

春节期间很多地方会把饺子做成“元宝”形状，不过在食用时间上则有较大不同，有些地方是在除夕夜吃饺子，而有的地方则是大年初一的时候吃饺子。

三、元宵

南方地区将元宵叫做“汤圆”，除了名字的叫法不同以外，在制作方法以及食用方法上也存在着较大的差异。

中国文化博大精深，源远流长。饮食文化作为中国文化的重要一部分，不仅在我国文化中扮演着重要的角色，而且对人们的生活也有着重要的影响。其中，从春节的习俗到春节的食俗就能看得出。

The Spring Festival, 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.

春节，中国新年，是我们大家最重要的节日。所有的家庭成员都得到新大吃一顿。同时，大家互相庆祝。大约十二点，一些家长和孩子们放鞭炮，天空是明亮的。我们可以兴奋地看烟花!

在一年的第一个清晨，许多老年人早早起床，贴上颠倒的礼物，或在前门挂上对联。一些房子的窗户上贴上红纸。

中国新年持续十五天。所以在这十五天里，我们总是登门拜访我们的亲戚。那时，孩子们最快乐，因为他们可以从父母、祖父母、叔叔、阿姨那里得到很多红包。春节的最后一天是另一个节日。它把元宵节命名为元宵节。

所以中国新年就要到了。

年节也是祭祝祈年的日子。古人谓谷子一熟为一“年”，五谷丰收为“大有年”。西周初年，即已出现了一年一度的庆祝丰收的活动。后来，祭天祈年成了年俗的主要内容之一。而且，诸如灶神、门神、财神、喜神、井神等诸路神明，在年节期间，都备享人间香火。人们借此酬谢诸神过去的关照，并祈愿在新的一年中能得到更多的福佑。年节还是合家团圆、敦亲祀祖的日子。除夕，全家欢聚一堂，吃罢“团年饭”，长辈给孩子们分发“压岁钱”，一家人团坐“守岁”。各家焚香致礼，敬天地、祭列祖，然后依次给尊长拜年，继而同族亲友互致祝贺。

初中寒假作文：春节印象

在这个少雪且日渐温暖的季节里，春节不知不觉掩埋了平淡的日子，迎面扑来。看着墙上新买的挂历，数着本世纪最后一个春节临近的日子，不禁感叹岁月匆匆，流逝的又是一个平静而忙碌的一年。

年近而立，孩提时代积攒的或多或少的好印象随之趋淡，不再是鞭炮烟花水饺压岁钱的年代，不再憧憬自己又长了一岁，见识又多了一成，与其说春节是个最快乐的时候，不如说是个让人猛然意识到年龄为之衰老、责任为之重大的关口。

泛泛地祝贺一下，说几句辞旧迎新的吉利话，写一点闹春怀旧的文章，早就没了那份雅兴。像节目主持人一般，说说今年大事，感慨今昔，畅想未来，不过是赢得捧场人恭维的掌声。自欺欺人的话我不说，或许我们的期望太高，春节不过是一年365天里平平常常的一天，我们对它注入了太多的文化内涵和商业炒作，因而显得格外沉重。其实，我们不如以一颗平常心待之，抑制那份期望和躁动，在吃喝说笑、探亲访友的程式外，获得一些不易觉察的满足。

曾经，春节留给我许多美丽又难忘的记忆。我想，今天的孩子们也会和我当时一样，感受到这一喜庆而隆重的节日。但是，不同年龄阶段有不同的体验，或许是自己的性格和兴趣使然，无论各类媒体如何渲染轰炸，我的实际感受总是不尽人意，比平常的日子，多了许多无奈，多了些烦累与沉重。父母那里必须去，亲朋好友那里也得去，同事相约还得去，实质内容总不外乎吃喝二字。恭喜发财、新年好、大吉大利之类的陈词滥调说得心里别扭却又不得不一遍遍反复念叨。游街购物、猜谜挑灯、送礼请客一年又一年重重复复无休无止。人就像一只陀螺，被它抽打着旋转不止，自己都不知道重心在哪里。如此不堪重负的节日，我们还要强作儿时的兴奋，观看彻夜循环的晚会，听听属于别人的笑声，感受的却是自己困乏的双眼、失望的情绪、无欲的胃。我宁肯像往常一样，粗茶淡饭，十点钟睡觉，临时看一会书，或者跟朋友们打一圈牌。总觉得在这个全民皆欢的日子，我丝毫的兴致都没有，甚至一向良好的食欲。

传统、文化、历史、习俗原是人为的产物，是我们的祖先制定了它，我们一代一代人不停地拷贝翻版，演化发挥使其辉煌灿烂，更有网络的宣传让其飞腾变异，它最终制约了我们自己，违背了人类起码的一点本性--人是向往自由和幸福的，春节，可以说是一面最为清晰的镜子，从中每个人都能看到，如此疲惫消极的脸孔，是你儿时的样子吗？哪怕一丝欢乐的影子。

是的，我们不断老去，不断感受世事沧桑。今年的春节又被明年的春节复制，今天的不快明天就可能烟消云散，记忆过滤了每个人心底的阴影和悲伤，剩下的或许就是可以称之为美丽的东西吧，但是曾经呢？那里没有我们的位置，那是经过虚化的，虚拟的，明知是假我们还要重复，还要写成文章，哄一哄行人和孩子。

不能老去，怕只有童年的纯真吧忧思觉醒良知。

Since I was very small, my parents often took me to the animal zoo. I have

seen many animals and opened my vision. But as I grew up, I started to realize

that it was not reasonable to keep the animals in the zoo. They belong to the

nature and should live in the forest. But it is human nature that capture them

and then keep them in the zoo for earning money. Nowadays, animal park is

advised to be built. It can protect the animals in the nature, at the same time,

people can see the animals. It is better than the old zoo. Animals and human are

part of nature, and both share the same right to survive.

我的家乡在江苏北部，离杭州有500公里左右，我们家乡的春节习俗与杭州有些不同。其中之一是贴春联。人们在除夕那天就会拿出毛笔墨水红纸，各显神通，写出一张张漂亮的春联，贴在门上。有的人家不会写，就到集市上去买别人写好的，或者请别人帮忙写。远远看去，家家户户都显得喜气洋洋。这标志着春节的到来。

北方人春节时要吃饺子，饺子里面一般放的是白菜、韭菜、粉丝、豆腐，外面是小麦面皮。以前有的人家会在其中的一个饺子或几个饺子中放一枚铜钱，吃到这枚铜钱的人将会发财。后来因为人们觉得这样做太脏了，现在这种风俗已经慢慢取消了，不过也有一些人会在里面放一个金橘代替铜钱。

人们会提前一个星期，高峰时期甚至会提前一个月，预购好飞机票或火车票，也有一些离家近的人会搭乘长途汽车回家，或者开私家车回家。

人们还会互相给红包。六十六元，代表着六六大顺。也有给八百八十八元的，代表着发发发。现在人们都是成百上千的给，才不管这些呢。

人们要放鞭炮，鞭炮种类可多了。有普通的红鞭炮，点上火就可以爆炸：有儿童们喜欢的“摔摔炮”，用力向地上扔就可以爆炸；有拿在手里就可喷出去的小烟花；还有捏一下，并快速地扔出去就可以爆炸的小“手榴弹”。

民谚称“腊月二十四，掸尘扫房子”。扫尘就是年终大扫除，北方称“扫房”。在春节前扫尘，是中国人民素有的传统习惯。扫尘那天，全家上下齐动手，打扫房屋、庭院，擦洗锅碗、拆洗被褥，干干净净地迎接新年。其实，人们是借助"尘"与"陈"的谐音表达除陈、除旧的意思。

虽然人在杭州，但过的是北方的春节。

春节是中国的传统节日，而除夕之夜吃饺子也是传统项目之一，百姓们经过一年的辛勤劳动，在岁末休息调整，辞旧迎新，岁岁年年，周而复始。百姓们的生活如此，已经形成了惯例，紫禁城里的皇族们是否也遵从民间过春节的文化传统，除夕之夜包饺子吃呢?

饺子是一种深受我国人民喜爱的食物，也是一种年节食品，有一句民谣说的是“大寒小寒，吃饺子过年”，正是形象的表现出了饺子这种食品在中国人民心中不可替代的地位。中国人吃饺子的历史是比较悠久的，据三国时期魏人张揖编著的《广雅》中记载，当时已经出现类似的食物了，形如月牙，称为“馄饨”。到了南北朝时，馄饨“形如偃月，天下通食”。据推测，那时的饺子煮熟以后，不是捞出来单独吃，而是和汤一起盛在碗里混着吃，所以当时的人们把饺子叫“馄饨”。这种吃法一直延续下来，而混沌仍然是人们日常生活中一道非常重要的食品。大约到了唐代，“饺子”的形状与现在的饺子已经基本没什么出入了，而吃法也以现在的吃法一模一样了，即将煮好的饺子捞出来成在盘子里。宋代时称饺子为“角儿”，它是后世“饺子”一词的词源，这种写法，在其后的元、明、清及民国间仍可见到。除了上述称法，元代时还称饺子为“扁食”，明代也沿用了这个说法，万历年间沈榜的《宛署杂记》记载：“元旦拜年，作匾食”。刘若愚的《酌中志》载：“初一日正旦节，吃水果点心，即匾食也。”到了清代时，出现了诸如“饺儿”、“水点心”、“煮饽饽”等有关饺子的新的称谓。

在特殊的日子吃饺子代表着特殊的意义，多为吉庆祥和的象征。例如，民间长者过生日的前—天必吃饺子，称之为“子孙饽饽”，意在祝愿福寿绵绵、子孙满堂。结婚.入洞房后也要先吃煮得半生的饺子。以祈祝早生贵子。除夕晚上。一家老少一起包饺子。待子时一到全家人—起吃饺子，取“岁更交子”之意。饺子的吃法也是多种多样的，水煮的叫“水饺”，上屉蒸的叫“蒸饺”，在铛中烙的叫“锅贴”。可见，民间在喜庆、吉祥的日子有吃饺子的习惯，与民同庆的皇室也深受民间传统文化的影响，在节庆之日吃饺子。

清代，饺子作为一种喜庆的食物，配合节日的氛围，形成了许多约定俗成的习俗，作为国之表率的清代皇室自然要紧紧承袭传统的民俗文化。

清代，皇帝大婚之时就要吃饺子。据《清宫述闻》中对同治皇帝大婚入洞房的情景有这样的记载：“……皇上、皇后坐龙凤喜床，食子孙饽饽……至晚，皇上、皇后用长寿面。”这里面所说的“子孙饽饽”，就是饺子。

当然，每逢辞旧迎新之时，饺子是必不可少的，这不仅寓意“岁更交于”，更重要的是表示不忘祖宗。因为在清朝入关之前，满族就有过年吃冻饺子的生活习惯。

清代皇帝在除夕子时这一重要时刻，先要进行一系列的瞻拜仪式，然后再开始吃饺子。

皇帝的瞻拜活动，是在总管太监引导下进行的，本来没有绝对严格的时间规定。但是，御膳房的厨役们对煮饺子的时间，必须要掌握得十分准确，皇帝一到昭仁殿，饺子就要出锅，旋即端上膳桌。对此，时间的掌握就尤其重要，清宫规定，元旦前后，皇帝出门、入门，都要放纸炮作前导。御膳房根据炮声的远近，就可以推测出皇帝的行踪。例如嘉庆四年除夕，当嘉庆帝在奉先殿行礼毕，下台阶时，膳房即开始煮饺子，他刚到昭仁殿，太监立刻传：“送万岁爷煮饽饽一品!”嘉庆坐稳后，首领太监捧进红色雕漆飞龙宴盒一副，内置“三阳开泰”瓷碗两件：一碗内装素馅饺子6个，另一碗内有乾隆通宝、嘉庆通宝各一个。皇帝吃完饺子后，小太监用瓷碟盛饺子一个、红薹一块供在昭仁殿的小佛堂前，以示敬佛。而清宫的《膳食档》中还记载了光绪过年吃肉馅饺子的情景;“正月初一，万岁爷在养心殿进煮饽饽。第一次进猪肉长寿菜馅煮饽饽十三个;猪肉菠菜馅煮饽饽十三个。”

Mid-autumn day is a special festival in China, which is one of the traditional Chinese festivals. It falls on the 15th day of Augustlunar month every year. Our Chinese will celebrate it on that day. I think there are not too many people can reject the temptation of it. I like this festival very much. I have two reasons.

First of all, Mid-autumn has the deep meaning of reunion. In China, people regard Mid-autumn day as very important, so no matter where they are, they will come back to their family if there is a chance. They don’t like celebrate this festival outside, which will make them feel lonely. Thus, they will go home by all means. Luckily, the government also pays great attention to this traditional festival. There are laws tomake sure people have holidays on that special day. In the other word, mid-autumn festival gives a chance for family get together.

Secondly, every family will prepare a big meal on that day. All the food is delicious. It is good to have a big meal. I think nobody will not interested in delicious food. The mooncake is a necessary decoration forMid-autumn day. It tastes good, too. It is the tradition for a long time. How pleased to enjoy the glorious full moon with mooncake!

This is why I love Mid-autumn festival so much.

Notes：

Seeing my whole education history, I have many teachers. But my favorite

teacher is only one. He is Mr Lu. He is my middle Chinese teacher and head

teacher. He is about fifty years old. Maybe he works too hard, so his back is a

little bent. He always wears a black glasses. He looks amiable but serious in

study. He always thinks us before everything. His class is very interesting and

full of different kinds of encouraging stories. He is very strict to us in

study. But whoever has difficulties, he would help us without hesitation.

Sometimes he plays the role of a strict teacher, sometimes he takes the place of

a kind father.

说到我家乡的春节习俗，那可真多啊！让我给你细细道来。

贴春联：

春联也叫门对，春贴、对联、对子、桃符，等等。每逢春节无论是城市还是农村。家家户户都要精选一副大红春联贴与门上，为节日添加喜庆气氛。

贴福字

在贴春联的同时，大家要在屋门上、墙壁上，门楣上贴大大小小的“福”字。

拜年：

人们穿上最漂亮的衣服，扮的整整齐齐，出门走亲访友，相互拜年，恭祝来年大吉大利。

我最喜欢的就是除夕了。

因为我喜欢听那个传说，我给大家讲讲吧！

相传在远古时候，我们的祖先曾遭受一种最凶猛的野兽的威胁。这种猛兽叫"年"，它捕百兽为食，到了冬天，山中食物缺乏时，还会闯入村庄，猎食人和牲畜，百姓惶惶不可终日。人和"年"斗争了很多年，人们发现，年怕三种东西，红颜色、火光、响声。于是在冬天人们在自家门上挂上红颜色的桃木板。门口烧火堆，夜里通宵不睡，敲敲打打。这天夜里，"年"闯进村庄，见到家家有红色和火光，听见震天的响声，吓得跑回深山，再也不敢出来。夜过去了，人们互相祝贺道喜，大家张灯结彩，饮酒摆宴，庆祝胜利。

怎么样，看了我们这儿的习俗，才知道各地习俗没多大差别吧！

过年了！过年了！家家户户忙着贴春联，剃头发，做年夜饭……要做的事情太多了，而且“规矩”太多了！有些习俗还非常怪，无奈之下，我就去问正在贴春联的妈妈。

我看见妈妈将“福”字倒着贴，我固然知道为什么要倒着贴，将‘福’字倒着贴是一种习俗，‘福’倒贴说明‘福’倒（到）了！然而我仍然问道：“过年有什么习俗和规矩啊？”妈妈停下手中的活，耐心地给我谈起来。

原来，以前过年还有一种放鞭炮的习俗，来源于“年兽”的故事。非常久以前有一只“年兽”，长期居住深海底，到了除夕就跃出海面到处作恶。有一年一个老人用放炮，穿红衣，贴红春联的方法驱赶走“年兽”，这才得以平静，此后这个方法就流传开来。然而现在广州禁止燃放烟花爆竹，所以咱们就不再进行这个活动了。

除夕这一天对我国来说是极为重要的。这天晚上，咱们全家准备除旧迎新，吃团年饭。 吃年夜饭，是春节家家户户最热闹愉快的时候。大年夜。丰盛的年菜摆满一桌 ，全家团聚，围坐桌旁，共吃团圆饭。人们既是享受满桌的佳肴，也是享受那份快乐的气氛，桌上有鸡、鹅、烧肉等等，一般少不了两样东西，一是火锅，一是鱼。火锅热气腾腾，说明红红火火；“鱼”和“余”谐音，喻意“年年有余”。最后一道甜食，祝福往后的日子甜甜蜜蜜。

今天我的收获太大了，知道了非常多过年习俗的知识，不过我觉得有点迷信，然而这又仿佛是一种乐趣，只要快乐就好，何必迷信不迷信？更何况这是传统的习俗，宁可信其有不可信其无啊！

在我的记忆中，过春节有很多习俗，春节是最热闹的节日，是中国传统节日中最早、最浓重的节日。早在春节前好几天，人们就开始忙碌起来了，家家户户都在买鞭炮、买烟花、包饺子、包汤圆、给小朋友们买新衣……

到了腊八节这一天，我们全家人都要喝腊八粥。过了腊八节就是农历的十二月二十四日，这天是小年。过小年的时候小朋友们最喜欢了，因为家家户户都开始把吃的糖果摆出来了，有的还开始放鞭炮了。

“噼里啪啦，噼里啪啦……”你听，除夕已经大笑着走来了，家家户户都在家里面看着春节联欢晚会，给守岁增添了一些快乐，门外已经贴上了对联，屋里还贴了几个大福字。除夕快到十二点了，屋外有好多人在放鞭炮。除此之外，家家户户的灯都要通宵开着，人们都在聊家常，看春晚准备守夜呢，除夕真的热闹极了！

除夕过了之后就是大名鼎鼎的大年初一了。这一天才是最热闹的呢！我们村子里都会举行很隆重的活动，大人们都会比赛跑步、拔河、喝啤酒、打篮球，小孩子们会玩抽奖游戏，大街小巷都充满了节日的气氛。爷爷奶奶会在家里包饺子，还会把硬币包到饺子里，谁吃到了，谁今年的福气就会很好。吃过饺子后就开始拜年了，我开始给家里所有的人拜年。爷爷奶奶、爸爸妈妈都给我发了大红包，我乐得合不拢嘴。大年初一真是太热闹了，我永远也忘不了大年初一这一天。

春节这些习俗带给我很多欢乐，我希望这些习俗可以永远的保留下去，每一年都过一个开心快乐的春节。

The Chinese Spring Festival comes on the first day of the Chinese Lunar Year, which is usually in February. There is a name for each year, such as the dog, the monkey, the tiger or one of the twelve animals, and this year is the year of the horse.

Before the New Year’s Day, the Chinese people usually give their houses a good cleaning and on the last evening of the old year, all the members of a family will get together and have a big meal. On the first or second day of the new year, people usually go to visit their relatives and friends and give some lucky money to children.

I wish you have a good time during the Spring Festival.

中国的春节是在中国农历的第一天，通常是在二月。每年都有一个名字，比如狗、猴子、老虎或十二生肖中的一种，今年是马年。

在新年到来之前，中国人通常会给他们的房子做个大扫除，在旧年的最后一个晚上，所有的家庭成员都会聚在一起吃一顿大餐。在新年的第一天或第二天，人们通常会去拜访亲戚朋友，给孩子们一些幸运的钱。

祝你在春节期间过得愉快。

New Year Party

On New Year#39;s Eve，our class had a party. The atmosphere was good. It was out of the ordinary from the very begining. The boy student from one bedroom gave an unusual performance. We saw a boy named Li Xinmin turn off all the lights in a sudden snap. Then with three resounding(响亮的) crow of a cock echoing in the hall，the hall was again brightly lit in a snap.

Then，the representative of the bedroom Zhu Guozhang asked us to guess a line of a poem related to the above situation. He added that Li Xinmin alone was born in the year of the dog and the other three were all born in the year of the chicken. They left us all in confusion.

一想到春节，人们俗称“过年”。那么，人们过年一般干什么呢？那就要看不同地方的习俗了。

在繁荣的大城市里，除夕那天，人人都穿起新衣裳，接着清洁自己的房子，贴对联，购买年货，然后把买来的新花草摆放好。晚上，家家都做好丰富的团年饭。人们吃完团年饭后，就

在规定的路段上放烟花，或者在家看电视转播的春节联欢晚会。

乡村的除夕是这样过的：大清早，人们就起来了。换上新衣裳以后，就在自家的门前贴对联，家家户户的院里都挂上了红灯笼。晚上，家家户户的灯笼都亮了，红红火火一片。每家门前“劈劈啪啪”都是爆竹声。人人挨家挨户到处串门，好不热闹。

大年初一，城市和乡村的人们，都带着年货，有的去庙里上香；有的去亲戚朋友家拜年；还有的一家一起出去游玩。

这就是中国人们过年的习俗。
