My name is xxx.  There are 4 people in my family.  My father is a Chemistryteacher.  He teaches chemistry in senior high school.  My mother is an English teacher.  She teaches English in the university.  I have a younger brother, he is a junior high school student and is preparing for the entrance exam.

I like to read English story books in my free time.  Sometimes I surf the Internet and download the E- books to read.  Reading E- books is fun.  In addition, it also enlarges my vocabulary words because of the advanced technology and the vivid animations.

I hope to study both English and computer technology because I am interested in both of the subjects.  Maybe one day I could combine both of them and apply to my research in the future.

篇12:清明节习俗介绍

全文共 570 字

+ 加入清单

清明节的传统习俗是丰富有趣的,除了讲究禁火、扫墓祭祀,还有踏青、荡秋千、插柳等一系列风俗体育活动。相传这是因为清明节要寒食禁火,为了防止寒食冷餐伤身,所以大家来参加一些体育活动,以锻炼身体。因此,这个节日中既有祭扫新坟生别死离的悲酸泪,又有踏青游玩的欢笑声,是一个富有特色的节日。

扫墓祭祀:清明扫墓祭祀,谓之对祖先的"思时之敬"。按长期形成的风俗习惯,旧时,北京人多在清明扫墓祭祀,但祭扫仪式并不在清明的当天,而是在临近清明的"单"日举行。据说,只有僧人才在清明当天祭扫坟茔。

插柳:据说,插柳的风俗,也是为了纪念"教民稼穑"的农事祖师神农氏的。有的地方,人们把柳枝插在屋檐下,以预报天气,古谚有"柳条青,雨蒙蒙;柳条干,晴了天"的说法。黄巢起义时规定,以"清明为期,戴柳为号"。起义失败后,戴柳的传统习俗渐被淘汰,只有插柳盛行不衰。杨柳有强大的生命力,俗话说:"有心栽花花不发,无心插柳柳成荫。"柳条插土就活,插到哪里,活到哪里,年年插柳,处处成阴。

清明插柳戴柳还有一种说法:原来中国人以清明、七月半和十月朔为三大鬼节,是百鬼出没讨索之时。人们为防止鬼的侵扰迫害,而插柳戴柳。柳在人们的心目中有辟邪的功用。受佛教的影响,人们认为柳可去鬼,而称之为"鬼怖木"……

这只是清明节传统习俗的一部分,有兴趣可以在网上搜索更多关于清明节传统习俗的资料!

Generally speaking people will bring the home-made food some fake money and paper-made mansion to their ancestors. When they start to honour their ancestor they will light up some candles and incense put some flowers around the tombs. The most important thing is to put the home-made food in front of the tombs. The food also known as sacrifices is usually made up with a chicken a fish and some pork. It’s a symbol of the offspring’s respect to the ancestors. People believe that the forbears will share the food with them. The children dedicate the food and money to their forbears in order to show their love and caring. The young offspring will go down on their knees and pray for their ancestors. They can say their wishes in front of the tombs and the ancestors will make their dreams come true.

清明节是中国的传统节日之一。从每年的4月5日开始人们就开始去祭拜自己的祖先。一般来说人们会带一些自制的食品冥币和祭品烧给他们的祖先。当人们开始拜祖的时候就会点燃蜡烛和香火在坟墓周围挂上鲜花。最重要的事情是把祭祀的食物摆在坟墓前。这些食物又称之为祭品,通常由一只鸡、一条鱼、一些猪肉组成。这是后代对祖先所表示的一种尊重。人们认为老祖宗会和他们一同分享美食。后代们献上食物和钱财表示他们对先人的爱和关心。晚辈们则会跪在坟前说出自己的心愿向先人祷告让祖宗保佑自己的愿望得以实现。

It is believed that the Palace Museum, or Zi Jin Cheng (Purple Forbidden City), got its name from astronomy folklore, The ancient astronomers divided the constellations into groups and centered them around the Ziwei Yuan (North Star) . The constellation containing the North Star was called the Constellation of Heavenly God and star itself was called the purple palace. Because the emperor was supposedly the son of the heavenly gods, his central and dominant position would be further highlighted the use of the word purple in the name of his residence. In folklore, the term ―an eastern purple cloud is drifting‖ became a metaphor for auspicious events after a purple cloud was seen drifting eastward immediately before the arrival of an ancient philosopher, LaoZi, to the Hanghu Pass. Here, purple is associated with auspicious developments. The word jin (forbidden) is self-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-limits to ordinary people.

The Forbidden City is rectangular in shape. It is 960 meters long from north to south and 750 meter wide from east west. It has 9,900 rooms under a total roof area 150,000 square meters. A 52-meter-wide-moat encircles a 9. 9-meter—high wall which encloses the complex. Octagon —shaped turrets rest on the four corners of the wall. There are four entrances into the city: the Meridian Gate to the south, the Shenwu Gate (Gate of Military Prowess) to the north, and the Xihua Gate (Gate of military Prowess) to the north, and the Xihua Gate (Western Flowery Gate ) to the west, the Donghua (Eastern Flowery Gate) to the east.
