Food between China and Western countries are totally different styles. China has 5000 years history. We probably spend half of time on food. Chinese people choice food very carefully. They only use fresh material to make food. For example they only eat fresh fish.

Chinese have a lot of ideas and techniques for cooking. We can cook a chicken in over ten ways. That’s why Chinese food is so popular in the world. Western country like English or American, they don’t have fresh food because they buy their food from supermarket which only sells stored materials. Western people would also prefer fast food like burgers and chips.

They are unhealthy to human body. Western people do not have many skills for cooking, mostly they only boil, steam and bake the food. By the way, western people are very good at making desert and chocolate. They can make very good cake and chocolate. They are very sweet but it’s sort of food which make you become fat quickly.

每年农历的第一天，就是春节，可它是怎么来的呢?

传说很久很久以前，有一个叫“年”的怪物，每到农历的第一天，它就会下山把山下人们的猪、羊、牛这些动物统统吃掉，有时会吃几个人。而且人们为了躲避“年”还要逃到一座山上去呢!有一次一位老爷爷来到人们住的地方，说他能打败“年”，人们叫他多加小心，然后就爬到山上去了。

老爷爷睡了一觉后，“年”就来了，但老爷爷并不害怕，而是穿了一套红衣，在离房子有点远的地方放了几个饭团，然后用竹子燃起了火。“年”看到饭团后很好奇，就拿了个尝，可是饭团太黏，把“年”的嘴巴都粘上了，“年”只能垂头丧气地回去了。它突然听到烧竹子的声音，因为它非常害怕那声音，就大惊失色的逃跑了。

人们回来了，他们看到老爷爷还安然无恙，很好奇，就问他经过，老爷爷把经过告诉了人们，人们听了很高兴，就兴高采烈的开了一场联欢会，“过新年”就这样产生了。后来人们把那一天叫“春节”

过春节真是中华民族传统文化内容之一啊!

在我国众多的传统节日中，春节是一个最喜气洋洋的节日。那个时候，每个人脸上都挂着幸福的笑容。

今年春节，家家张灯结彩，个个欢天喜地，尤其是我们孩子，更是欢呼雀跃，兴高采烈，心里想，还能有什么节比过春节更快乐的呢?

春节期间，只见每家每户门两旁贴着红艳艳的对联，门正中间倒贴着一个大大的福字，一开始我不明白，好好一个福字，干嘛要倒贴呢，后来听妈妈的解释和指教，才大概明白这层含义，意思福到福到暗示福已到达你家，来年会更吉祥，更平安。除了对联和福字外，各家阳台上还挂起大红灯笼，左一盏，右一盏，刚好拼成一对，有的还在灯笼里插上一根蜡烛，闪出一阵阵光芒。

我家也不例外，在春节前，爸爸妈妈还有我都在迎接春节的到来。妈妈去买了许多年糕、汤圆、零食，水果等食物，爸爸则去买了许多的烟花爆竹，准备去家门口放烟花，我的任务最轻，只要去附近的小店里，买几张对联，再买几张福字和中国结，就大功告成了。那几天，我们都在等待着期盼着春节的来临。

在过春节这几天里，到处有着新年的气氛和热闹的景象，打鞭炮，走亲访友，聚餐，大家有说有笑，谈天说地，热闹非凡。我们孩子穿着新衣服，蹦蹦跳跳，串来串去，口袋里还有长辈们给的一包包压岁钱，可开心啦!

总之，春节是我国非常古老的传统节日，值得我们去庆祝，值得我们去发扬光大。

说起我的家乡——徐州这边过春节的事，那真是太有意思了！我们喜欢把过春节说成是“过年”，而且是“红红火火过大年”。

“买年货”是最最重要的。每到过年，妈妈都会把家里的大冰箱塞得满满的，鸡、鱼、肉、蛋、蔬菜、水果应有尽有，我们徐州人过年讲究年年有余，准备食品那是多多益善。另外就是要给全家人添置新衣，当然购买春联、鞭炮等喜庆物品也是必不可少的。

其次给我印象最深的就是“除尘”，其实就是“大扫除”。妈妈会提前一个月就开始打扫卫生，把家里里里外外、从上到下，全部擦洗一遍，而我一有时间就被抓去帮忙，每次都把我累得腰酸腿疼！妈妈说，这就叫辞旧迎新。哎！

贴“春联”和贴“福”字这两个活也是我的，得大年初一一大早就贴上。“福”字还得倒着贴，意思是“福到了”。屋里屋外、门上墙上，到处都是大大小小的“福”字，显得很是喜庆，寄托了我们徐州人民对幸福生活的向往。

“放鞭炮”和“拜年”是我最最喜欢的了。响炮、花炮，长的、短的，别人不敢放的我都敢放。拜年！那是为了赚“压岁钱”，每年这时候我都是满载而归！特“爽”！

说到“守岁”，那我可就是“说话的巨人，行动的矮子”了，一过了十二点，就困得上下眼皮直打架，早把自己说过的话丢到九霄云外去了！

最后就到了元宵节。吃元宵（我们徐州人叫吃“汤圆”，是团圆的意思）、点花灯、猜灯谜是我们徐州的习俗。我的书柜里有一个用面做的“老鼠灯”，是小时候带我的保姆奶奶给我做的，惟妙惟肖，活灵活现，真是神奇极了！

过完了元宵节，春节才算真正过完了。而每年的这时，我都是意犹未尽，真恨不得再重来一遍，没有办法，只好掰着手指头盼着下一个春节快点到来！

The early Thanksgiving has no fixed dates, temporary decision, by the states until after the independence, to become a National Day of Thanksgiving. Every Thanksgiving Day this day, the United States national lively very, christians according to custom to church to do Thanksgiving prayer, urban villages and towns are everywhere costume parade, theater or sports competition, etc. Respectively a year of relatives will be back from the country and the family reunion, taste to "Turkey" give priority to a meal.

Americas most famous local celebration was started in 1924 Macys Thanksgiving Day parade (Macy s Thanksgiving Day making).

Every Thanksgiving Day this day, the United States national jollification, people according to custom to church to do Thanksgiving prayer, urban and rural towns everywhere make-up marches, drama performances and sports competitions, such as schools and shops are given by the regulation off. Children to imitate the indians appearance in strange costumes and draw on facebook or wear a mask to the street singing, trumpet. Scattered in exile abroad will be home for the family, the family sit together, munch delicious Turkey, and the family said: "thanks!" . After Thanksgiving, the school will let the students draw a Thanksgiving picture, most of the students are drawing is Turkey.

At the same time, the hospitality of americans also not forget this day invite friends, bachelor or away from home for the holidays. Since the 18th century, the United States began to appear a give poor people a basket of food customs. There was a group of young women want to choose a day in a year for good, think that Thanksgiving is selected the most appropriate nevertheless. So Thanksgiving Day arrived, they were fitted with a full basket of food personally delivered to the poor. Soon it far or near, there are many people learn their appearance to do. No matter who meet, they would say: "thank you!"

初时感恩节没有固定日期，由各州临时决定，直到美国独立后，感恩节才成为全国性的节日。 每逢感恩节这一天，美国举国上下热闹非常，基督徒按照习俗前往教堂做感恩祈祷，城市乡镇到处都有化装游行、戏剧表演或体育比赛等。分别了一年的亲人们也会从天南海北归来，一家人团圆，品尝以“火鸡”为主的感恩节美食。

美国当地最著名的庆典则是从1924年开始的梅西百货感恩节游行(Macy‘s thanksgiving day parade)。

每逢感恩节这一天，美国举国上下热闹非凡，人们按照习俗前往教堂做感恩祈祷，城乡市镇到处举行化装游行、戏剧表演和体育比赛等，学校和商店也都按规定放假休息。孩子们还模仿当年印第安人的模样穿上离奇古怪的服装，画上脸谱或戴上面具到街上唱歌、吹喇叭。散居在他乡外地的家人也会回家过节，一家人团团围坐在一起，大嚼美味火鸡，并且对家人说：“谢谢!”。感恩节后，学校会让同学们画一张感恩节的画，大部分学生都画的是火鸡。

同时，好客的美国人也忘不掉这一天邀请好友、单身汉或远离家乡的人共度佳节。从18世纪起，美国就开始出现一种给贫穷人家送一篮子食物的风俗。当时有一群年轻妇女想在一年中选一天专门做善事，认为选定感恩节是最恰当不过的。所以感恩节一到，她们就装上满满一篮食物亲自送到穷人家。这件事远近传闻，不久就有许多人学着她们的样子做起来。不管遇到谁，他们都会说：“thank you!”

I opened the "our festival", the first thing I saw is the introduction of the Spring Festival. Spring Festival is one of the oldest festivals in our country. Where does my hometown show the atmosphere of the Spring Festival? Lets look at it.

Before the Spring Festival, I saw on TV that the meals in the hotel were all booked. It shows that everyone is reunited with their family. 10 days before the Spring Festival, I noticed that the traffic in the train was getting bigger and bigger, and I couldnt even buy the tickets. What was the matter? It turns out that all people in other places want to go home and celebrate the Spring Festival. So, the flow of people home is getting higher and bigger.

Before the Spring Festival, I found that there are a lot of people who sell fireworks in the street, arent there? The traditional customs of our country during the Spring Festival! On the night of the Spring Festival, in the sound of thunderous firecrackers, fireworks flashes up and radiates a variety of gleaming rings in the night sky. Some are like chrysanthemums, some are like waterfalls, others are like big trees and golden lights. Some are like small lanterns full of sky. They are really gorgeous. Thousands of spectators are cheering with loud cheers.

After the Spring Festival, the people of our country should have an atmosphere of red and red fire and joy and bustle. You see, small red couplets, firecrackers red, red paper-cut, the old man for children red envelopes, new clothes, children red, paste “ Fu ” the word red, red lanterns and red, Chinese junction is red … … … … the whole country a piece of red.

The Spring Festival is celebrating the festival, more is a good day for thousands of households together, in this new years day, people in happiness and peace with a day every year, countries better every year.

春节是我国各民族的传统文化，在除夕那天，是我最开心的一天。上午我们打扫房间，变得干净整洁，贴倒福、贴春联；中午，我们将要把鸡肉鱼肉等食物上供给财神爷；下午，大人们拌馅子包饺子，我们则在一边玩耍，放鞭炮。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。天空逐渐拉下黑幕，除夕夜即将开始。当我们坐上餐椅，看到是满桌子丰盛晚餐，饮食，可谓是春节的一个重要项目，也叫做年夜饭。一般情况下，餐桌上有鱼（年年有余），有鸡（吉祥如意），有甜食（甜甜蜜蜜）等。一家人融洽的看着春晚，合合美美，期待已久的饺子就出锅了。一年，就在这一片嬉笑中度过了，明年，我又长了一岁。

拜年是中国民间的传统习俗，是我们辞旧迎新的一种方式。小一辈的人给老一辈的人拜年，同时也会收到压岁钱，这也是我们小孩最高兴的事，只要有心，拜年不怕晚。慢慢的，我们又迎来了元宵节。这是新年的第一个月圆节，在这一天，我们会看花灯、猜灯谜，还有放灯的习俗，在许愿灯上写上自己的愿望，将它放飞。除了玩，我们还会吃元宵，元宵即"汤圆"以白糖、芝麻、豆沙、、果仁、枣泥等为馅，用糯米粉包成圆形，风味各异。可汤煮、油炸、有团圆美满之意。

春节是我们中国人的重要节日，正像宋代诗人王安石写的：爆竹声中一岁除，春风送暖入屠苏

中国的绍兴是个古色古香的地方，历史久远，有许多颇具地方特色的风俗，虽然时移世易，但依然代代相传地保留着这些风俗。

一跨入农历腊月，各家各户就开始准备年货了。第一批是腌制品，鸡、鸭、鱼、肉琳琅满目地挂满廊前、屋下、阳台。鱼干的种类有许多，如螺蛳青、扁鱼、白条鱼……晒得差不多时，老人们便拎着一个塑料袋，去城市广场的农副产品交流会抢购物美价廉的食品。到了腊月下旬，廿三晚上都要拜拜灶神，送灶神上天，可以不让他在玉皇大帝面前说人们的错误。

过了腊月十二的夜晚，老人们说话都分外小心起来，最忌讳提及“死”、“穷”等字眼，过年穿的新衣服也开始物色与张罗。之后，大人们就会去到超市，去买汤圆等食品，会将在腊月上旬搡好、浸好的年糕拿出来，为年夜饭做准备。

到了除夕，一出门，到处都是酒肉的味道，家家户户都准备好了丰富的美味佳肴，主要都有年糕，象征着年年高、八宝菜，象征着富贵、鱼，象征着年年有余，有一养菜不能缺，那就是鲞冻肉，关于这道菜，还有个传说呢！相传有一农户，家里有一个尖酸刻薄的婆婆和一个秀外慧中的媳妇，除夕吃晚饭时，婆婆故意将鲞头烧入鲞冻肉中专让媳妇食用。小叔看了，批评其母，说她不该如此对待嫂嫂，媳妇听后笑着说：“叔叔错怪了婆婆一番好意，这是为我讨个吉利，今年有鲞头，明年更有享头了。”这句话打破了尴尬的局面，婆婆深受感动，从此一家和睦，日子越过越好，因此流传至今。

正月初一，古称“元旦”称大年初一，这一天为绍兴一年中最隆重的节日，通常以“汤圆”、“如意糕”作早餐。正月初二，人们就开始走亲访友，恭贺新禧，亲友则以酒、菜盛情款待，长辈还会将事先包好的红包给小辈。

“正月十五月儿圆！”元宵节是春节的尾声，这一天，家家都要吃汤圆，南方称汤圆‘北方则称元宵，这一天晚上会有猜灯谜的活动，家人都会带着孩子去猜灯谜，看灯会。这一天也是寒假的尾声。

这就是古城绍兴的春节，传统的民风民俗将这个小城市渲染的分外热闹。

我们中国的传统节日有很多，如：春节、元宵节、端午节、中秋节……其中我最喜欢的节日是春节。那春节是怎么来得呢?原来，它有一个传说：

从前，有一个叫“年”的大怪兽，每到除夕，总是来伤害百姓。因此，每到除夕这天，村村户户的人们只能扶老携幼逃往深山，以躲避“年”兽的伤害。有一年除夕，一位从村外来的老爷爷用红色的纸、蜡烛的火光和鞭炮的炸响把“年”吓跑了。人们知道了“年”最怕这些东西后，就纷纷效仿这种方法来驱赶“年”兽。从此，每年除夕，家家贴红对联、燃放爆竹;户户烛火通明、守更待岁的风俗流传至今。

为什么我最喜欢春节呢?因为春节那一天，我们可以穿上漂亮的新衣服，去走亲访友，还可以收到长辈的红包呢!数着一张张花花绿绿的钞票，又可以买自己心爱的课外书了，心里别提有多高兴。

中国有着上下五千年的悠久历史，有着许多灿烂的传统文化和丰富的传统节日，它好像一本书，让我们翻开了历史大全。

“爆竹声中一岁除，春风送暖入屠苏。千门万户曈曈日，总把新桃换旧符。”伴随着新年的钟声，伴随着爆竹声，一年一度的春节又一次来到了人间。

大年初一早上，一打开手机，就看到了一条祝福的短信：“新年快乐!”因为这次过年不回外婆家，我就通过微信上的视频通话和哥哥姐姐们一起聊天，也是快乐无比呢。以前我们都是一家一家地串门拜年，现在一个电话，一条短信就能传达自己的祝福，我觉得方便多了，但是又好像年味淡了不少。

人们对于春节的庆祝形式也有所改变。相比于以前的传统习俗，现在的新习俗也更加有趣。比如有看春晚，上面动听的歌曲，搞笑的小品，动人的舞蹈，让观众们觉得精彩极了。不过，现在人们的文化程度越来越高，对春晚的要求也越来越高。旅游也是现在人们非常重视的一个新习俗，它给人们增添了许多乐趣。而且正是因为有那么多美丽、好玩的景区，有像汽车，地铁那样方便，快捷的交通工具为基础，才会有这样的旅游习俗。

我觉得应该有不少人认为年味变淡了，但是正因为国家经济上的发展，政治上的稳定，文化上的繁荣，才会有这些新习俗，才会有我们丰富多彩的生活。如果我们连吃都吃不饱，穿都穿不暖，那我们还会花钱买电视机看春晚，去各地旅游吗?

春节象征着一家人和谐，团圆，即使人们的习俗变化再大，我相信这一宗旨也永远不会变。最后祝大家新年快乐!

我国有不少传统节日，比如春节、中秋节、重阳节等等，过节的时候，街上到处都是人来人往的，一片欢笑，一片热闹的景象。

春节可有很多的活动，比如吃年夜饭，放鞭炮，分压岁钱，我最喜欢的是拿压岁钱了。吃过年夜饭后，外公去屋外放鞭炮，我就立刻手捂着耳朵躲开了，我听见“嘭嘭”两声，抬头看见一个个烟花绽开了笑脸，它们在乌黑的天空中欣然怒放。一眨眼间，天空变成了烟花的海洋。

春节前，家家户户都要把房子打扫得干干净净，打扮得漂漂亮亮，妈妈们还要买福，有的把福正的贴在门上，有的把福倒的贴在门上，还有的歪的贴在门上。表示人们希望来年幸福，身体健康。婆婆还要买很多很多好吃的东西，房子里的年货堆得象山一样高。

这快乐的节日，给我们带来了一种喜气洋洋的感受。
