春节文化英文介绍【精选20篇】

春节到了，我们一家人也都想以前过年一样回了老家。大街小巷人流如潮，街道两旁，买烟花炮竹的小摊子随处可见，家家户户张灯结彩，喜气洋洋。男女老少个个脸上都洋溢着欢快的笑容。到处都散发着节日气息。

到家之后，爸爸负责扫地，妈妈负责拖地，我和姐姐就拿着抹布擦桌子.椅子.玻璃等等。当我们都收拾完后，奶奶就说：“快去贴春联吧!这春联是不能超过中午12点后贴的!”听了奶奶的话，我和爸爸急忙放下手中的活，拿着春联和福字到大门上去了。妈妈和姐姐也去看“热闹”。我呢，则帮爸爸贴“福”字，正要忒在大门中央，爸爸连忙制止我，说：“‘福’字应该倒着贴，也就是‘福’到的意思了。爸爸还说：“春节贴春联有喜庆

. 吉祥 . 幸福之意。”我一听，连忙把“福”字倒过来贴了。爸爸也把春联贴了上去，这又给新年增添了一番喜气。

到了晚上，我们家就更热闹了，妈妈把包饺子的木板房在桌子上，材料都备齐了，开始包饺子喽!我欢呼着。我们的分工如下：我和姐姐来干饺子皮，妈妈和奶奶来擀饺子皮，妈妈和奶奶来包饺子。爸爸和爷爷在旁边闲聊，一家人其乐融融，屋子里弥漫着幸福的气息。包饺子的过程中，我问奶奶，过年为什么要吃饺子，奶奶亲切的说：“因为和面的‘和’字就是‘合’的意思;饺子的饺和‘交’是谐音，‘合’和‘交’又有相聚的意思，所以用饺子象征团聚合欢。过年吃饺子也有“招财进宝”的吉祥含义，所以过年要吃饺子。

包完饺子后，爷爷就去煮饺子了，这段时间里，我和爸爸就去放鞭炮，听着炮声我感觉特别有年味。晚上八点整，我们准时打开了电视，看了“春节联欢晚会”，广告期间，奶奶给我和姐姐发了红包。我和姐姐都露出了灿烂微笑。

接着，我们一起吃了年夜饭，一家人在一起，好开心，好温暖呀!

这个春节我过得真好，希望下一个春节会更好。

春节是中国人的传统节日，每当到了春节，人们总会贴春联、“福”字，到处张灯结 The Spring Festival is the traditional holiday of the Chinese. Whenever the Spring Festival, people always stick the word "blessing" and open lights everywhere.

彩，美不胜收。人们提着大包小包的礼品去朋友、亲戚家作客。我怀着好奇的心情对春节送什么礼作了如下调查。

我走向前去，拦住了一位正提着几盒“诗仙太白”大礼盒的叔叔，说：“对不起，叔叔，我打扰你一下，我想问一问，你在春节一般给亲戚朋友们送什么礼物?”叔叔回答：

“我在春节期间都送酒或其他物品，你看，我今天到一位长辈那里送的就是‘诗仙太白’酒，以表达我对他们的祝福。”

我走着走着，来到银行旁，看到一位阿姨正从银行走出来，我急忙走上前去，问：“阿姨，我想你春节一定会到朋友、亲戚家作客，你平常都送什么礼物，来表达对他们的祝福呢?”阿姨摆出一副满不在乎的样子，说：“我一般送钱给他们，不用提着大包小包的礼品满街走了，这样多省事呀。”

我又来到医院，询问了一位医生阿姨，阿姨告诉我：“一般我给长辈的都是一些营养品，送给小孩的礼品一般都是知识方面书籍，给中年人都送一些有价值的物品。虽然礼品不贵，可也能表达自己的心意。”

我又碰到了张阿姨，说：“张阿姨，平常，你都不得送什么礼物给朋友、亲戚?”张阿姨说：“现在很多人都送钱、酒，可我认为有的人送名贵的礼物，都是为了讲体面，所以现在我们到哪里去玩。都给他们送一些意想不到的礼物，或是一些祝福的话，朋友听了也知道我们的心意。”

最后，我对我的调查作了一下总结，送钱的有60%，送食品的有10%，送祝福的有5%，送酒的有25%，我认为礼品不一定要的，只要能表达你对他们新年的祝福就行了。

Christmas arouses increasing attention year by year in China. Christmas cards become popular with students. People hold Christmas parties and exchange Christmas girts. A lot or TV and radio programs about Christmas are on. Meanwhile the Spring Festival is less appealing （有吸引力的）to youngsters. Thus some people wonder whether Christmas will replace the Spring Festival.

This worry is fairly unnecessary. Why ？One reason lies that Christmas only affects Christians，college students and joint-venture （合资企业）workers. Another reason is that Christmas is mostly celebrated in cities. Few people in countryside show extreme interest in this exotic（带有异国情调的）festival. By contrast，the Spring Festival is the most influential traditional festival in every family.

I think，it is natural that with increasing exchanges with the West，a lot of Western holidays have been gradually introduced into China. For us Chinese we should never neglect or even discard our own traditional festivals. For centuries Chinese have observed this traditional holiday to welcome the beginning of a new year. And we will treasure the Spring Festival forever.

春节吃饺子有很多神奇的传说。一说是为了纪念盘古氏开天辟地，结束了混沌状态。二说是取其与“浑囤”的谐音，意为“粮食满囤”。三说与女娲造人有关。女娲捏土造人时，由于天寒地冻，人的耳朵很容易被冻掉。为了使人的耳朵能固定不掉，女娲便在人的耳朵上扎一个小眼儿，用细线把耳朵拴住，线的另一端放在人的嘴里咬着，这样才把耳朵做好。老百姓为了纪念女娲的功绩，就包起饺子来，用面捏成人耳朵的形状，内包有馅(线)，用嘴咬着吃。

其实，饺子是一种历史悠久的传统美食，深受老百姓喜爱，民间就有“好吃不过饺子”的俗语。每逢春节，饺子更成为一种应时不可缺少的美食。究其原因：一方面，饺子形如元宝。人们在春节吃饺子取“招财进宝”之音;另一方面，饺子有馅，便于人们把各种吉祥的东西包到馅里，以寄托人们的新年祈望。在包饺子时，人们常常将金如意、糖、花生、枣和栗子等包进馅里。吃到如意、吃到糖的人，来年的日子更甜美;吃到花生的人，将健康长寿;吃到枣和栗子的人将早生贵子。有些地方春节吃饺子时，还要配些副食以示吉利。如：吃豆腐，象征全家幸福;吃柿饼，象征事事如意;吃三鲜菜，象征三阳开泰;吃鱼团、肉丸和发菜，象征团圆发财。还有些地方吃法很独特。如：在我国河南的一些地区，将面条与饺子一起煮着吃，取名“金钱穿元宝”。你说有趣不有趣?

看来，爱吃饺子真不错!查着查着，我又想吃饺子啦。

春 节 我最喜欢传统节日中的春节，因为它是中国民间最隆重的传统节日。在农历正月初一，又叫阴历年，俗称“过年”，“新年”。

每年过年，街上挂满了红红的灯笼，彩旗飘飘。商场更是人山人海，购买年货，可热闹了。

我每年都是会回爷爷奶奶家陪他们一起过年，妈妈和奶奶准备了丰盛的食物，听着外面有许多“砰、砰、砰”的鞭炮声，每个小朋友都穿上了漂亮的新衣服，大人们露出了满意的笑容。爸爸给我买了许多礼花和鞭炮，到了晚上，我就让爷爷陪我放鞭炮，那心情别提有多美！到了晚会开始时，妈妈他们在包饺子，妈妈说过年就要守岁不许睡觉，我则一边吃水果一边观看晚会，精彩的表演把我们逗得哈哈大笑，心想：要是天天都过年该多好啊！

中国的传统节日真是丰富多彩，它是中国的文化。我了解的传统节日还有：端午节、中秋节等。这些传统节日给我们带来了欢乐和幸福还有团圆，作为我们新一代要加强学习，大力弘扬中国的这些传统文化。

【篇一】

中国的传统节日有很多，如：春节、元宵节、清明节、端午节……其中，我最喜欢春节了。

关于春节，有一个流传很广的故事，我来给大家讲讲吧。古时候，人间出现了一个怪物，叫“年”，每到大年三十，“年”就会从地洞里出来去吃人，人们都害怕得不敢睡觉，他们聚在一起说话，好像想将“年”要吃自己的事情忘掉。有一次，一个小孩在院子里玩，突然，“年”来了，“年”张开血盆大口，要吃小孩。小孩一慌，把一个鞭炮扔到火堆里，噼里啪啦，噼里啪啦!一阵震耳欲聋的声音响起来，“年”听到，害怕极了，顿时浑身起了鸡皮疙瘩，一溜烟跑了。从此，每到大年三十，人们就放鞭炮，“年”再也不敢来了。

到了春节的前几天，家家户户都要把家里打扮得焕然一新;除夕这天，家家户户贴对联，聚在一起吃团圆饭;春节这天，孩子们也穿上了很漂亮的衣服，大人、小孩都露出了幸福的笑容，相互祝福道贺。

我喜欢春节。

【篇二】

在我国的传统节日里面，我最喜欢的就是热闹的春节。春节是怎么来的呢

很久很久以前，有一个叫“年”的怪物，它经常在冬天欺负住在山里的人们，有一些人想把它除掉，也有一些人想把它赶走。有一天“年”又来了，许多人家里都遭到了袭击。只有几户挂着红布帘，门外生着火堆或敲敲打打闹翻天的人家没有受到伤害，因此山里的人们知道了“年”怕三样东西。当“年”再来的时候，人们用这三样东西把这个大怪物给赶走了，从此都不敢来伤害人们了。以后代代相传，便形成了过年热闹的习俗。

我喜欢春节，每年的春节我都要去花市。花市里人山人海可热闹了，店铺里的人在大声喊叫着卖各种各样的东西，有的卖艳丽多彩，芬芳迷人的鲜花，有的卖可口的爆米花和好喝的饮料，还有的卖各式各样的玩具。

近年随着我们国家的不断强大，各国的领导人也开始在春节的时候，发表讲话或文章向在本国的华人表示节日的祝贺，中国的春节在世界上越来越有影响力了。

秦兵马俑是秦始皇陵中一种从葬坑，就在秦始皇陵附近，它象征着秦始皇拥有着一支庞大的军队。

它是一位农民在打水井时发现的，被称为世界第八大奇迹。我和爸爸妈妈一起来参观秦始皇兵马俑。

刚进一号坑就看见面前有一支庞大的军队展现在眼前，这应该就是守护秦始皇的军队吧!这些兵马俑站立整齐，各式各样，有的双手牵着马，有的手上拿着兵器，有的双手打开好像在射箭，有的双手放在胸前好像在驾车。我们继续往里走，发现还有更多兵马俑，有些早已出土，有的还在保护中。我最喜欢一个正在保护的24号俑，因为这个俑身披铠甲，头戴盔甲，站得特别挺，左手拿着兵器长矛，右手放在身子边，看上去非常勇猛。

我们来到二号坑，我一进门就看见了一个玻璃框，框里展出着一个完好无损的俑，这是一个跪射俑。他一只脚支撑身体，一只脚跪在地上，双手放在右侧，拿着弓箭，好像在往天上四处?望，观察哪里有目标。接着我看到了一个中级军官俑。他表情严肃，身披铠甲，笔挺地站立，手上拿着两把剑，好像在守卫秦始皇。

最威武的当然是高级军官俑了。他双眼望着前方，看上去非常威严，手下好像按着一把宝剑，随时准备大开杀戒。最可爱的当然是马俑啦!这是这么多马中唯一有尾巴的马。它长得非常高大、壮实，头上戴着铠甲，嘴巴和鼻子都被铠甲保护着，只有眼睛露在外面。我发现这匹马的前面有一个牵马的士兵，好像它的主人正准备驾马去巡逻呢。它的主人可能是一个巡逻兵。最酷的是一个立射俑。他眼望着前方，双手拿着弓箭，随时准备把弓箭拉足射向空中的目标。

这些兵马俑真是各种各样，栩栩如生啊!

我的家乡在浙江省桐乡市的一个千年古镇上，它有一个亲切的名字，它叫石门。在我的家乡有着许多特产和名胜古迹。特产有槜李、小湖羊皮、榨菜、杭白菊……名胜古迹有吴越交界、罗家角遗址、京杭大运河……每一样特产、每一处名胜古迹，都让我追求和向往。其中，我最喜欢京杭大运河了。

京杭大运河是我国第一条人工挖掘出来的大运河，也是我国最长的一条大运河。他由北京直通杭州，全长几千公里。路经石门，不知是巧合，还是故意的，竟然形成了一个马蹄形。所以，我们叫它石门湾……

我家后面是一条小河，它是京杭大运河岔进来形成的。京杭大运河在岔进来的时候有岔进了另一个岔口。就这样，京杭大运河通进来形成了三个角。被我们孩子称作“三角洲”。每个角上都有一座桥，分别是工农桥·木场桥和马家桥，其中最有名的还是木场桥，因为它过去就是缘缘堂……

我和京杭大运河有着许多故事，钓鱼·游泳·打水漂……每一件事都让我难忘，其中让我最难忘的事情是小时候和朋友在京杭大运河的河边打水漂时的快乐情景。

小时候，每年夏天，我都会跟朋友来到京杭大运河的河岸边，拿起几块瓦片，比赛打水漂。一漂·两漂……瓦片向河对面漂去。当平静的河面被我们打破，泛出一圈一圈的波纹时，仿佛它皱起眉头说：“别来打扰我!”当我是最后一名时，我便会很生气，就往河里扔砖头，它只好无奈地溅起水花……

我爱家乡的京杭大运河!

What strikes one first in a birds -eye view of Beijing proper is a vast tract of golden roofs flashing brilliantly in the sun with purple walls occasionally emerging amid them and a stretch of luxuriant tree leaves flanking on each side. That is the former Imperial Palace, popularly known as the Forbidden City, from which twenty-four emperors of the Ming and Qing Dynasties ruled China for some 500 years——from1420 to 1911. The Ming Emperor Yong Le, who usurped the throne from his nephew and made Beijing the capital, ordered its construction, on which approximately 10,000 artists and a million workmen toiled for 14 years from 1406 to 1420. At present, the Palace is an elaborate museum that presents the largest and most complete ensemble of traditional architecture complex and more than 900,000 pieces of court treasures in all dynasties in China.

Located in the center of Beijing, the entire palace area, rectangular in shape and 72 hectares in size, is surrounded by walls ten meters high and a moat 52 meters wide. At each corner of the wall stands a watchtower with a double-eave roof covered with yellow glazed tiles.

The main buildings, the six great halls, one following the other, are set facing south along the central north-south axis from the Meridian Gate, the south entrance, to Shenwumen, the great gate piercing in the north wall. On either side of the palace are many comparatively small buildings. Symmetrically in the northeastern section lie the six Eastern Palaces and in the northwestern section the six Western Palaces. The Palace area is divided into two parts: the Outer Court and the Inner Palace. The former consists of the first three main halls, where the emperor received his courtiers and conducted grand ceremonies, while the latter was the living quarters for the imperial residence. At the rear of the Inner Palace is the Imperial Garden where the emperor and his family sought recreation.

The main entrance to the Palace is the Meridian Gate(1), which was so named because the emperor considered himself the "Son of the Heaven" and the Palace the center of the universe, hence the north-south axis as the Meridian line going right through the Palace. The gate is crowned with five towers, commonly known as the Five-Phoenix Towers(2), which were installed with drums and bells. When the emperor went to the Temple of Heaven, bells were struck to mark this important occasion. When he went to the Ancestral Temple, it was the drums that were beaten to publicize the event.

Beyond the Meridian Gate unfolds a vast courtyard across which the Inner Golden Water River runs from east to west. The river is spanned by five bridges, which were supposed to be symbols of the five virtues preached by Confucius——benevolence, righteousness, rites, intelligence, and fidelity(3).

At the north end of the courtyard is a three-tiered white marble terrace, seven meters above the ground, on which, one after another, stand three majestic halls; the Hall of Supreme Harmony(4), the Hall of Complete Harmony(5), and the Hall of Preserving Harmony(6).

The Hall of Supreme Harmony, rectangular in shape, 27 meters in height, 2,300 square meters in area, is the grandest and most important hall in the Palace complex. It is also Chinas largest existing palace of wood structure and an outstanding example of brilliant color combinations. This hall used to be the throne hall for ceremonies which marked great occasions: the Winter Solstice, the Spring Festival, the emperors birthday and enthronement, and the dispatch of generals to battles, etc. On such occasions there would be an imperial guard of honor standing in front of the Hall that extended all the way to the Meridian gate.

On the north face of the hall in the center of four coiled-golden dragon columns is the "Golden Throne", which was carved out of sandalwood. The throne rests on a two-meter-high platform with a screen behind it. In front of it, to the left and right, stand ornamental cranes, incense burners and other ornaments. The dragon columns entwined with golden dragons measure one meter in diameter. The throne itself, the platform and the screen are all carved with dragon designs. High above the throne is a color-painted coffered ceiling which changes in shape from square to octagonal to circular as it ascends layer upon layer. The utmost central vault is carved with the gilded design of a dragon toying with pearls. when the Emperor mounted the throne, gold bells and jade chimes sounded from the gallery, and clouds of incense rose from the bronze cranes and tortoises and tripods outside the hall on the terrace. The aura of majesty created by the imposing architecture and solemn ritual were designed to keep the subjects of the "Son of the Heaven" in awe and reverence.

The Hall of Complete Harmony is smaller and square with windows on all sides. Here the emperor rehearsed for ceremonies. It is followed by the Hall of Preserving Harmony in which banquets and imperial examinations were held.

Behind the Hall of Preserving Harmony lies a huge marble ramp with intertwining clouds and dragons carved in relief. The slab, about 6.5 meters long, 3 meters wide and 250 tons in weight, is placed between two flights of marble steps along which the emperors sedan was carried up or down the terrace. It is the largest piece of stone carving in the Imperial Palace. Quarried in the mountains scores of kilometers southwest of Beijing, this gigantic stone was moved to the city by sliding it over a specially paved ice road in winter. To provide enough water to build the ice road, wells were sunk at very 500 meters along the way.

The three halls of the Inner Palace are replicas of the three halls in the front, but smaller in size. They are the Palace of Heavenly Purity(7), the Hall of Union(8), and the Palace of Earthly Tranquility(9).

The Palace of Heavenly Purity was once the residence of the Ming emperors and the first two of the Qing emperors. Then the Qing Emperor Yong Zheng moved his residence to the Palace of Mental Cultivation and turned it into an audience hall to receive foreign envoys and handled the state affairs. The promotion and demotion of officials were also decided in this hall. After the emperors death his coffin was placed here for a 49-day period of mourning.

The Palace of Union was the empresss throne room and the Hall of Earthly Tranquility, once a private living room for the empress, was partitioned. The west chamber served religious purposes and the east one was the bridal chamber where the newly married emperor and empress spent their first two nights after their wedding.

The Imperial Garden was laid out during the early Ming dynasty. Hundreds of pines and cypresses offer shade while various flowers give colors to the garden all year round and fill the air with their fragrance. In he center of the garden is the Hall of Imperial Peace, a Daoist temple, with a flat roof slightly sloping down to the four eaves. This type of roof was rare in ancient Chinese architecture. In he northeastern corner of the garden is a rock hill, known as the Hill of the Piled-up Wonders, which is topped with a pavilion. At the foot of the hill are two fountains which jet two columns of water high into the air. It is said that on the ninth night of the ninth month of the lunar calendar, the empress would mound the hill to enjoy the autumn scene. It is also believed that climbing to a high place on that day would keep people safe from contagious diseases.

The six Western Palaces were residences for empresses and concubines. They are kept in their original way for show. The six Eastern Palaces were the residences for them too. But now they serve as special museums: the Museum of Bronze, the Museum of Porcelain and the Museum of Arts and Crafts of the Ming and Qing dynasties. In the northeastern-most section of the Inner Palace are the Museum of Traditional Chinese Paintings and the Museum of Jewelry and Treasures where rare pieces of imperial collections are on display.

Now the Forbidden City is no longer forbidding, but inviting. A visit to the Palace Museum will enrich the visitors knowledge of history, economy, politics, arts as well as architecture in ancient China.

在绍兴，到了农历十二月，大家就开始忙着为过年作准备，做年糕、包棕子、晒鱼干、酱鸡、酱鸭、杀猪、宰羊……还要买新衣新裤新鞋子和购置馈赠给亲朋好友的礼物，真是忙得不可开交。腊月二十三晚上，家家户户都江堰市要拜拜灶神，送灶神上天，可以不让他在玉皇大帝面前说人们的错误。

到了除夕夜的这餐饭叫做年夜饭、又叫团圆饭，这一餐饭菜非常丰盛，有鱼、肉、萝卜、菠菜、粉条、长生果……应有尽有，每一种菜都必须有剩余，留到明年再吃，取意“年年有余”。饭后全家老老小小围坐在一起，说说一年来的成果，谈谈来年大好前景。这一天终夜不眠地守岁，等待春节来临后燃放鞭炮，电话相互拜年祝福。

正月初一，为春节之始，古称“元旦”，又称“新正”、“大年初一”，为绍兴一年中最隆重的节日。家中第一个起床的，第一件事情是放鞭炮，俗称“放开门炮仗”。旧时，此举寓有驱邪除疫和“高升三级”之意。绍兴民间且有“早放（爆竹）早发（财）”之说，故从凌晨三四时开始，爆竹声即此起彼落，比户不绝，以增添新春喜庆气氛。

旧时，大年初一起床后先吃“烟火食”（即以柴火烧煮之食物）然后才可开口说话。所以妈妈都会在我的床边放一些吃的，我睁开眼睛第一件事就是吃点东西。如今，通常以汤团、如意糕作早餐。正月初二起，携桂圆、荔枝、美酒、白糖和糕点等礼品走亲访友，巷贺新禧。亲友则以酒菜盛情款待，改日再行回拜之礼。此俗大抵以早为敬。1950年起，人民政府提倡文明过节。元旦至春节期间，绍兴城乡普遍开展拥军爱民、拥军优属、拥政爱民及慰问退休干部、职工等活动，同时举行各种联欢会、联谊会与文娱表演及体育竞赛等。

在春节期间，我们还得守好多“规矩”：如不准扫地、倒垃圾，唯恐扫除了一年的财气与运气；还不能动刀，怕遭到皮肉之苦；不可打破碗，怕破了财……

一眨眼，春节在正月十五结束了，了学生们去上学了，大人们也去工作了，天气转暖了，绍兴的农村又变得安静了。

商业和文化的接触增多会导致一个国家特征的丧失：

影响文化：文化不是静态的，而是动态的（not static, but dynamic)；—种文化的改变主要是由 于社会环境(social environment)发生了变化。比如说，人们的饮食习惯发生了改变，这是学习 夕卜界文化的结果(Peoples eating habits have been changed as the result of learned behaviour.)； 快餐文化源自美国，有些人将此作为财富的象征(symbols of wealth),从而喜欢快餐；另外， 本地的饮食文化会改变，以适应外国人的口味（suit the tastes of visitors);

影响生活方式：进口商品的增多，对外国产品的喜好（preference for imports);人们更加熟悉 他国的文化，而忘记自身的特点（sense of identity)，社会的团结也有所损害（an erosion of social solidarity);服装、饮食、娱乐等等都被两化了 （westernized),比如说，西装现在是流行 的男性服装(the suit is the most popular outfit for men)；

欠发达国家在技术革新中起到的作用甚微(play a small role in the technological revolution),所 以需要"出卖"自己国家的主权或者利益来获得国际的帮助（concede sovereignty and interests to other countries for aid)；贫富差距加大(widening gap between the richest and poorest parts of the world)；

接受西方文化的人们成为一个国家新的统治阶级（new ruling class);人们摒弃传统的观念 (renounce traditionally-held beliefs),觉得传统观念是过时的和低人一等的（outdated and inferior);主流文化会取代老式的和各种各样的文化（A dominant culture takes over diverse cultures.),人们不再尊重传统文化（lose respect older cultures),而传统观念最终成为历史 {consigned to history)。

商业和文化的接触增多会加强一个国家的特征：

外来文化让人们意识到自己文化的特点，从而更加注意维持这种文化； 一种特殊文化会引起世界的关注，人们会更加注意保护。

One of the most conspicuous trends in the 21st century is a closer connection between countries, in both economic and cultural aspects. There is a widespread worry that this will lead to the gradual demise of countries’ identities. This issue should be viewed and analyzed from multiple perspectives.

When a country tends to develop a closer relationship with the rest of the world, it does not necessarily give up its culture. Culture is not a disgrace to but an asset of a country. An indigenous culture can distinguish one country from others, attracting foreign visitors and yielding high income. As most tourists travel abroad for learning different cultures and sampling different ways of life, such as Beijing opera in China, Japanese tea culture and Thai temples, many countries have responded with protecting and preserving their cultural identities, in an effort to keep themselves in the list of the most popular destinations. Increased tourism instills fresh life force into these countries, aiding theconservation of their features.

While tourism provides a driving force for cultural conversation, some components of a culture, such as traditions^ customs or taboos might die out over time. It seems that in some countries, the locals have become more accustomed to exotic cultures. It reflects the combined effects of the invasion of foreign cultures, either through media or through direct business interaction. For example, two decades ago, sex was a

taboo subject in China and most Chinese people felt embarrassed to talk openly about it. Over time the Western culture has permeated into the Chinese lifestyle, and the Chinese people have broken many of their time-honoured traditions. It occurs in the rest of the world as well.

As outlined above, increased interaction between countries in the domains of business and culture can either strengthen or undermine the identities of countries involved, To date there is no definite answer to this question.

1. conspicuous-noticeable=prominent=striking:显箸的，突出的

2. connection=linkage= relation=relationship:关系，联系

It is said that in the year of 300 AD, there was a kind old man and his name was Saint Nicholas. He was always ready to help the poor and often gave presents to them.

Today, Father Christmas is an imaginary figure, but nearly all young children believe in him. They think he is a happy old man with a long white beard and a long red robe.

On the night of the twenty-fourth of December every year, Father Christmas from some cold northern land comes down the chimney of the fireplace to put presents by the beds of children or to fill their stockings. So when children go to bed that night, they hang up their stockings, and on Christmas morning they wake to find them full of presents. Of course, it‘s really their parents who fill the stockings.

Another name for Father Christmas is Santa Claus.

译文：

据说，在公元300年，有一个善良的老人，他的名字是圣尼古拉斯。他总是愿意帮助穷人，常常送礼物给他们。

如今，圣诞老人是一个虚构的人物，但几乎所有的孩子都相信他。他们认为他是一个快乐长长的白胡子和一个长长的红色长袍的老人。

在第二十每年的十二月份的第四夜，父亲从寒冷的北方一些圣诞归结土地的壁炉烟囱提出的儿童床礼物或填补他们的袜子。因此，当孩子上床睡觉，那天晚上，他们就挂上他们的袜子，并在圣诞节早晨醒来发现他们装满礼物。当然，这需要他们的父母谁填补了袜子。

圣诞老人的另一个名字是圣诞老人。

春节的猜灯谜活动从除夕就已经开始了，灯谜，又称为“灯虎”、“文虎”，是件非常有意思的活动，下面是关于春节猜灯谜介绍的内容，欢迎阅读！

春节猜灯谜由来的介绍

一时欢乐一时愁，想起千般不对头。如若想得千般到，自解忧来自解愁。

这首诗就是一个谜语，它的谜底正是"猜谜".相传，两千多年前，就有了猜谜这种活动。那么，猜谜咋又变成灯谜了呢？这里还有个故事呢！

据传，很早的时候，有个姓胡的财主，家财万贯，横行乡里，看人行事，皮笑肉不笑，人们都叫他"笑面虎".这笑面虎只要看见比自己穿得好的人，便象老鼠给猎捋胡子──拚命巴结；对那些粗衣烂衫的穷人，他则象饿狗啃骨头──恨不得嚼出油来。

那年春节将临，胡家门前一前一后来了两个人，前边那人叫李才，后边那个叫王少。李才衣帽整齐华丽，王少穿得破破烂烂。家丁一见李才，忙回房禀报，笑面虎慌忙迎出门来，一见来客衣帽华丽，就满脸堆笑恭敬相让。李才说要"借银十两"，笑面虎忙取来银两。李才接过银两，扬长而去。笑面虎还没回过神来，王少忙上前喊道："老爷，我借点粮。"笑面虎瞟了他一眼，见是衣着破烂的王少，就暴跳如雷地骂道："你这小子，给我滚！"王少还没来得及辩驳，就被家丁赶出大门。

回家的路上，王少越想越生气，猛然间心生一计，决定要斗斗这个笑面虎。

转眼间，春节已过，元宵将临，各家各户都忙着做花灯，王少也乐哈哈地忙了一天。到了元宵灯节的晚上，各家各户街头房前都挂上各式各样的花灯，王少也打出一顶花灯上了街。只见这花灯扎得又大又亮，更为特别的是上面还题着一首诗。王少来到笑面虎门前，把花灯挑得高高的，引得好多人围看。笑面虎正在门前观灯，一见此景，忙也挤到花灯前，见灯上题着四句诗，他认不全，念不通，就命身后的帐房先生念给他听。帐房先生摇头晃脑地念道：

头尖身细白如银，论秤没有半毫分，眼睛长到屁股上，光认衣裳不认人。

笑面虎一听，只气得面红耳赤，怒眼圆睁，哇哇乱忠："好小子，胆敢来骂老爷！"喊着，就命家丁来抢花灯。王少忙挑起花灯，笑嘻嘻地说："老爷，咋见得是骂你呢？"笑面虎气呼呼地说："你那灯上是咋写的？"王少又朗声念了一遍。笑面虎恨声说："这不是骂我骂谁？"王少仍笑嘻嘻地说："噢，老爷是犯了猜疑。我这四句诗是个谜。谜底就是针，你想想是不是？"笑面虎一想：可不哩！只气得干瞪眼，没啥说，转身狼狈地溜起了。周围的人见了，只乐得哈哈大笑。

这事后来越传越远。第二年灯节，不少人都将谜语写在花灯上，供观灯的人猜测取乐，所以就叫"灯谜".以后相沿成习，每逢元宵灯节，各地都举行灯谜活动，一直传到现在。
