我国地域辽阔,人口众多,风俗各异,中秋节习俗则多种多样,并且带有浓厚的地方特色。

在福建浦城,女子过中秋节时要穿行南浦桥,以求长寿。在建宁,中秋之夜以挂灯为向月宫求子的吉兆。上杭县人过中秋,儿女多在拜月时请月宫嫦娥。金门人中秋拜月之前要先拜天公。

广东潮汕各地有中秋拜月,主要是妇女和小孩,且有“男不拜月,女不祭灶”的习俗。晚上,皓月初升,妇女们便在院子里设案,桌上摆满佳果和饼食,银烛高燃,香烟缭绕,然后拜月。

中秋之夜烧塔,在一些地方也很盛行。塔高约1至3公尺,多用碎瓦片砌成,顶端留一个塔口,供投放燃料之用。中秋晚上便点火燃烧,燃料有木、竹、谷壳等,火焰熊熊,极为壮观。

还有一些地方形成了很多特殊的中秋习俗。除了赏月、祭月、吃月饼外,还有香港的舞火龙、安徽的堆宝塔、广州的树中秋、晋江的烧塔仔、苏州石湖看串月、傣族的拜月、苗族的跳月、侗族的偷月亮菜、高山族的托球舞等。

如今中秋习俗,远不如旧时盛行,祭月拜月活动已经淡化,取而代之的是多彩多姿的群众赏月游乐活动,唯独吃月饼,仍很盛行,把酒问明月,庆贺美好生活,为远方的亲人祝福,“但愿人长久,千里共婵娟”。

篇2:高中生英语作文写作训练方法

全文共 1545 字

+ 加入清单

中学英语教学大纲中明确指出:“写是书面表达和传递信息的交际能力。培养初步写的能力,是英语教学的目的之一。”在近年的高考中英语写作也占有相当比重。因此,在高中阶段教师应在指导和组织学生进行英语写作上下功夫,在平时教学中应有计划有目的地去训练和提高学生的写作能力。

一、学生能充分认识英语写作的重要性是写作能力提高的必要条件。

英语写作能力的提高需要持之以恒的长期训练。如果学生对写作重要性认识不够,他们就不能积极主动地去配合老师搞好写作训练,甚至产生逆反心理,产生对立情绪,英语写作就会半途而废,达不到预期目的。

在平时教学中,老师要经常性地有意识地对学生进行写作重要性的教育。学生一进入高中就要让他们了解初中和高中英语教学要求的异同。

我给学生找几份中考和高考题,帮助他们了解中考和高考英语试题对基础知识和基本技能要求的相同之处和不同之处,引导他们转变观念,更新和完善学习方法,要让他们了解到英语写作在高考中、实际运用中以及对将来继续学习英语的重要性。

我还联系在过去高考中英语取得优异成绩的毕业生,用书信介绍学好英语的方法,特别是在英语写作方面的成功经验和英语写作对他们当时及后来英语学习的重要性。这些毕业生有很大的感召力,很有说服性,尤其对那些有逆反心理的学生。

二、指导写作应注意的几个问题:

1.教师要有明确合理的教学计划和教学程序,组织系统规范的有序训练。

2.帮助和要求学生养成积极主动地坚持英语写作的良好习惯。

3.坚持循序渐进的训练原则。写作要先易后难,先短后长,先学会运用简单句、并列句,后学会用复合句表达,先写正确句子逐步过渡到围绕一个人、一件事、一个观点去写有中心的文章,由不限定时间到限定时间,由限定时间长到限定时间短,由限定字数少到多……

4.分程度要求。对学生的要求不能一刀切,对学习好的要求要高,对学习差的要求要适当低一些。要避免有些学生轻而易举垂手可得,而有些学生又可望而不可及的情况发生。

5.注意讲评。要经常指出优点,以利模仿,指出缺点,警示避免。

6.鼓励优秀,耐心帮助差生。充分利用板报、专栏进行优秀作文展览,或者也可采用传阅方式进行。但不能放弃或岐视差生,要经常帮助他们树立信心,掌握写作方法和技巧。

7.基础知识和能力并重,听说读和写并举。教师在平时教学中应充分利用一切可以利用的机会启发引导学生提高自己的写作水平。如遇到优秀的句、段或篇提示学生注意欣赏作者的表达法,把它们作为范例,在自己写作中加以模仿和运用。又如遇到英汉表达方法不同之处,提示学生注意英语的正确表达法,切忌出现汉语式的英语。要帮助学生养成正确运用标点符号的好习惯,切忌一点到底的错误方法。

8.要求学生在写作中宁简勿误,不能养成随随便便的习惯,要养成严谨推敲的风气。

三、训练写作的常用方法。

写作训练应考虑循序渐进的原则,采取逐步提高的形式进行。

1.用学过的词、短语或句式,模仿课文中的表达法造句。2.换课文中的人物、时态、语态或体裁等改写课文。3.看图作文。4.填补式作文。5.写课文复述材料或写心得体会。6.将打乱顺序的句子按事件发展的时间顺序或逻辑关系等整理成一篇完整的短文。7.教师给出题目和提纲让学生写作。8.写日记或周记。9.材料作文。教师给出汉语提示让学生用英语表达。

四、注意纠正学生英语作写中容易出现的错误。

学生最初写作时,教师要给予必要的指导,使他们少犯错误。教师还要经常性地例举错误的表达法,提醒学生注意避免。在批阅作文时教师要随时标出学生错误之处,还要随时记录学生所犯错误,把学生的错误加以归类总结,把普遍性的错误提出来,让学生集体改错,使他们的语言表达尽可能地规范正确。

总之,学生英语写作能力在老师有计划的组织和耐心帮助、正确引导下,在学生长期积极密切的配合下是能够得以逐步提高的。

清冷的月光射过云层,一层层地铺到了地面上,聆听中秋的月光中秋节的作文。没有笛声的婉转悠扬,没有萧瑟的深沉厚重,今夜的月光,一样醉人。

失去喧嚣而沉淀下的寂静,一曲“只应天上有”的天籁。分明是水做的骨肉,却多了一丝坚定,思念的坚定。中秋的夜,耳边全是月光细细碎碎的诉说,宛如一位寂寞思亲的女子。

听到月光的诉说了吗?悠远,清脆,涵盖千古,如莲花的开落。孤独哀伤,不销残酒的深睡之后,云鬓散乱,独倚望江楼。却过尽千帆皆不是,斜晖脉脉中江水拍岸,清越的水声是她的满腹愁肠。

她有“春风又绿江南岸,明月何时照我还”的忧伤,她有“风声萧动,玉壶光转,一夜鱼龙舞”的繁华,她有“明月别枝惊鹊,清风半夜鸣蝉”的清幽,她有“明月松间照,清泉石上流”的淡泊……

“日月之行,若出其中;星汉灿烂,若出其里”是她的豪情,“举头望明月,低头思故乡”是她的哀思,“露从今夜白,月是故乡明”是她的感伤,“但愿人长久,千里共婵娟”是她饱含深情的祝福,作文素材《聆听中秋的月光 中秋节的作文》。

月光无言,却如一个个生动的音符。如鸟语蝉鸣,如风声鹤唳,细细聆听,如打开一份苦涩而又甜蜜的心情,一种使人沉醉的心痛。

满地清幽的月光,一地盛开的繁华。如琼楼玉宇,却有几分不胜寒的感伤。同是一样的月光,却“几家欢喜几家愁”;却有“剪不断,理还乱,别是一番滋味在心头”的如梦伤怀;“海上升明月,天涯共此时”的思念寄托。

月光无言,理好云鬓的女子,起身离去。只留一壶浊酒,敬与中秋。倒上满满一碗月光,留醉与哀思。酒洒地面,三分月光,七分豪情,绣口一吐,便是半个天地。

篇一:中秋节

我国人民在古代就有秋暮夕月的习俗。夕月,即祭拜月神。到了周代,每逢中秋夜都要举行迎寒和祭月。设大香案,摆上月饼、西瓜、苹果、红枣、李子、葡萄等祭品,其中月饼和西瓜是绝对不能少的。西瓜还要切成莲花状。在月下,将月亮神像放在月亮的那个方向,红烛高燃,全家人依次拜祭月亮,然后由当家主妇切开团圆月饼。切的人预先算好全家共有多少人,在家的,在外地的,都要算在一起,不能切多也不能切少,大小要一样。

相传古代齐国丑女无盐,幼年时曾虔诚拜月,长大后,以超群品德入宫,但未被宠幸。某年八月十五赏月,天子在月光下见到她,觉得她美丽出众,后立她为皇后,中秋拜月由此而来。月中嫦娥,以美貌著称,故少女拜月,愿貌似嫦娥,面如皓月。

在唐代,中秋赏月、玩月颇为盛行。在北宋京师。八月十五夜,满城人家,不论贫富老小,都要穿上成人的衣服,焚香拜月说出心愿,祈求月亮神的保佑。南宋,民间以月饼相赠,取团圆之义。有些地方还有舞草龙,砌宝塔等活动。明清以来,中秋节的风俗更加盛行;许多地方形成了烧斗香、树中秋、点塔灯、放天灯、走月亮、舞火龙等特殊风俗。

今天,月下游玩的习俗,已远没有旧时盛行。但设宴赏月仍很盛行,人们把酒问月,庆贺美好的生活,或祝远方的亲人健康快乐,和家人千里共婵娟。

中秋节的习俗很多,形式也各不相同,但都寄托着人们对生活无限的热爱和对美好生活的向往。

篇二:快乐的中秋节

9月13日,月亮圆圆,金秋送爽,一个美丽的节日,一个让家人团圆的节日,一个浪漫的节日,嫦娥奔月的日子这就是——中秋节

今天是中秋节,我非常高兴,时间可过的真快啊!嗖~的一下又迎来拉一个美丽的中秋节,因为今天是特别的一天,所以我很早就起来拉,起来后因为很兴奋,所以我收拉一下家就去准备为中秋节拜喜送月饼去喽!

大家知道为什么会有中秋节嘛?相传,远古的时候,天上出现了十个太阳,烤得大地冒烟,海水枯竭,老百姓眼看无法再生活下去。这件事惊动了一个叫后羿的英雄,他登上昆仑山顶,远足神力,拉开神弓,一口气下了九个多余的太阳,解救百姓于水火这中。不久,后羿娶了个美丽的妻子,叫嫦娥。 一天,后羿到昆仑山访友求道,巧遇由此经过的王母娘娘,便向王母娘娘求得一包不死药,据说服下此药,能即刻升天成仙,然而,后羿舍不得扔下妻子,只好将不死药交给嫦娥珍藏。 不料,此事被后羿的门客蓬蒙看见,蓬蒙等后羿外出后便威逼嫦娥交出不死药,嫦娥知道不是蓬蒙的对手,危急之时当机立断,取出不死药一口吞了下去。嫦娥吞下药后,身体立马变轻啦许多飞啦起来飘飘然然的到啦月亮上成啦神仙,后羿知道这件事后悲痛欲绝。为啦纪念嫦娥后羿就做啦许多月饼和食物来纪念她所以就把阴历的8月15定做中秋节。大家知道啦吗?

我最激动的时刻到啦!才7点钟圆圆的月亮就出来啦!看到那圆圆的月亮我激动万分。8:00的时候月亮的月光普照大地仿佛身临奇境,自己已经成啦神仙!可惜的是因为我爸爸太忙所以没有在家也就没有人陪我一起赏月~我一边看月亮一边吃月饼,我突然想起远在石屏的爷爷奶奶所以就打啦个电话向他们问候!

正所谓:举头望明月,低头思故乡。

篇三:中秋杂感

街上挂满色彩缤纷的花灯预告中秋节快到了。

中秋节是中国传统的节日所以属於中国的香港特别行政区必然会为此庆祝一番。

其实我已记不清楚中秋节的由来只知道每逢此佳节最快乐的便是小孩子。他们会持著五花八门设计新颖的塑胶花灯到处巡游彷佛要用手握的花灯来争妍斗丽。你的比我大麼但我的比你光!他们追追逐逐在找寻竞争对手就好像在战场上的武士般要取得最后胜利才愿罢休。此外青少年们亦不忘娱乐。他们会手持一盒盒的蜡烛用火的热力把它们熔掉这便是俗语说的「煲蜡」。恕我见识浅陋吧!我真不懂「煲蜡」之乐何在可能是因为我怕灼伤罢。至於同属青少年的我可能早熟了所以已很少沉醉於玩乐之中。不过记得从前每年的中秋大家都会设计出不同的玩意例如尝试用柚子皮系上蜡烛作花灯又曾用奶粉罐竹子蜡烛等制作「风火轮」。何谓「风火轮」 其实就是将奶粉罐装上轮子里面点上蜡烛然后用竹子把罐穿起拉动时罐便随之转动效果很棒呢!至於成人方面有的搓「麻雀」有的与子女同乐一起玩花灯有的烧烤去了什麼奇怪的点子都有。不过无论节目多丰富多特别也好他们都必先与家人聚餐取其「一家团圆」之意。

月饼洋桃柚子等应节食品虽非为人人受落但人们依然每年循例地买回家虽然它们当中可能有特别的意思不过我们还记得吗 其实中秋节中常被提及的是月亮要好好的欢度中秋节并不需要古怪的点子或大事周张赏月才是重点。而一家团聚并不代表聚首一堂只要每年中秋大家都用心去观赏月之美纵使身在异地也是在同一天空下只要我们看的是同一个月亮必定能感受到家人的祝福!

中秋节的月光一直被誉为特别皎洁明亮的是否因为它被注满了祝福呢?

篇四:中秋月饼

公园的草坪上早早就满是赏月的人群。有的提着小灯笼在草坪上穿梭;有的席地而坐,把小灯笼挂在头上的树枝上;有的在水塘边点上蜡烛,烛光映到水里化成一道道晃动的光影;有的在一块柚皮上或纸船上点上蜡烛,把它放入水中,烛光飘在水面上,像是有了灵性。更有创意的是,有两个人用几十只小灯笼围成一个圈,两人浪漫地相依在一起,坐在小灯笼围成的圈中间。此情此景,与其说是在赏月,倒不如说是在明亮的月光下,人们在赏一种心情……

今年中秋的月亮特别亮,夜空中并未见有丝毫的云朵,所以今年中秋赏月的人也特别多。

公园的草坪上早早就满是赏月的人群。有的提着小灯笼在草坪上穿梭;有的席地而坐,把小灯笼挂在头上的树枝上;有的在水塘边点上蜡烛,烛光映到水里化成一道道晃动的光影;有的在一块柚皮上或纸船上点上蜡烛,把它放入水中,烛光飘在水面上,像是有了灵性。更有创意的是,有两个人用几十只小灯笼围成一个圈,两人浪漫地相依在一起,坐在小灯笼围成的圈中间。此情此景,与其说是在赏月,倒不如说是在明亮的月光下,人们在赏一种心情。

我的心情也多是在公园里的景致,目光也像流动的小灯笼一样,在公园内四处溜达。妻子知道我出门常有这个坏习惯,并不太理会,顾自逗着儿子玩。我真正认真地赏月是因为身边两个人的争论引发的。有一个人说今晚的月亮特别圆,另一个人说今晚的月亮不是最圆,明晚的月亮才最圆,俗话说十五的月亮十六圆。本是很普通的一句话,两个人却争得不可开交。我认真望着月亮,因为戴着眼镜,看起来好像月亮底部还多了一块,并不觉得月圆。

取下眼镜,因为看得不太真切,月亮变得有点模糊,也感觉不到月圆。我无法印证他们两人谁对谁错。

一个人说月亮的左下侧弧线不够圆。我再仔细观察,像是有他说的这种现象。另一个人说因为月亮本身的亮度不一样,看起来不圆只是一种错觉。我再仔细观察,又觉得他说的也有点道理。第一次这么认真地赏月,却没有把月亮看个真切。他们两个人还在争论,旁边一位老人忍不住插话了:其实十五的月亮圆不圆用肉眼是看不出来的。月亮圆不圆就在心里,心里想它圆,它就圆,心里想它不圆,它就不圆。就像人,想圆的时候,有一千个理由可以圆,不想圆的时候,有一万个理由可以不圆。老人的话让他们停止了争论。

篇五:中秋

蓦然回望,又逢中秋。片片桂花默默绽放,留一抹芳影香语。台历上,余下薄薄的几页象征岁月的纸。此时,那些关于明月、关于相思的诗词断句,一行行叠叠,载着红尘的呓语,也载着夜的静谧,悄然而至。

夜阑人稀,我欲觅芳径,踏曲幽,悠闲信步聆听。闻天籁倾情弹奏《二泉映月》的寂寥悲怆,一泓悲愁映泉月,神曲绕梁今未绝。赏松涛舞动《高山流水》的缱绻缠绵,山青青,水碧碧,千古知音难寻觅。……旋律悠然明悠然暗,心绪百曲,柔肠九转,是吟咏的共鸣,是喃喃的附和,随着案头淡淡的茶香袅袅,思绪宛如这杯清茶,带着一丝风毫水笺的清澈。映亮了尘世浮生的秦腔百韵、水袖三千。我在喧嚣的红尘中,捡起纷纷落地的心语花瓣,听一曲曲歌声缭绕,愿,那些散落在岁月深处的水痕弥散开去,溢满在彼此的心头,如花永隽。

长夜当歌,印记澹然,月色下,纠缠凝结出了的影,那记忆中的眉眼依然清朗如昨。只想跨越万水千重山,在浩淼人海中穿越繁华的喧嚣,走过大漠孤烟的荒凉去寻找你。离别的日子,自信是两汪不起波澜的湖水,是两弯不兴云影的孤寂的月亮。南国的秋表面繁花依旧,绿草如故。然,我心底却是星移斗转,改月换天,度日如年。日日忙忙碌碌走过轻尘,夜夜寂寂寞寞仰望天宇,明月照无眠,给予安慰的是千里共婵娟,柳影花荫里是千徊百转的孤单。我知,今年的中秋,依旧孑然一人。

望天空皎月如练一黛如洗。想起那月中的广寒仙子,想起那痴痴守望数千年的吴刚。不知痴情的男子何时能感动仙姿玉貌的嫦娥,好蟾宫折桂,终成眷属归。转身静安一隅,在诗书熏染间,采弦上月华,拔流水芬芳,把丝丝柔情盛开为古老传说的花朵。

明月清风为伴,踩着古韵悠悠的节拍,一路上笔歌墨舞,已经挂在中天。站在红尘之外,看千山万水等若迷尘;看五千年的时光,在发稍上轻轻掠过,琅琅心弦,凭栏的是柔肠千结;也许,船过,水无痕,但是,只要船行过,终有音韵在心中回荡。飞花已逐东风去,丹桂偏能留晚香。这句话,仿佛是远歌拂着细碎的花,自心头开落,迤俪在心中。难以释怀的情节,都皆是红尘中舍不得逃离的牢。

沉溺有时,寂寞有时,情感何需破茧,淡淡一笑间。

篇六:中秋

八月十五是中秋节,所以被称为中秋或仲秋。八月十五的月亮比其他几个月的满月还要圆,要明亮,所以又叫做月夕,八月节。中秋前夕,人们都尽可能和家人团聚,取人月双圆的意义,八月十五又叫团圆节。

中秋节是汉族和少数民族的民间传统节日。早在三代时期我国就有秋暮夕月的习俗。夕月,即祭拜月神。到了周代,每逢中秋夜都要举行迎寒和祭月。在唐代,中秋赏月,玩月颇为盛行。南宋,民间以月饼相赠,取团圆之义,晚上,有赏月、游湖等活动。明清以来,中秋节的风俗更加盛行,许多地方形成了烧斗香、树中秋、点塔灯、放天灯、走月亮。舞火龙等特殊风俗。今天,月下游玩的习俗,已很少了。但设宴赏月仍很盛行,人们把酒问月,庆贺美好的生活,或祝远方的亲人健康快乐,和家人千里共婵娟。

古时还有祭月和拜月活动。设大香案,摆上月饼、西瓜、苹果、梨,葡萄等祭品,其中月饼和西瓜是绝对不能少的。西瓜还有切成莲花状,在月下,将月亮神像放在月亮的那个地方,红烛高燃,全家人依次拜祭月亮,然后由当家主妇切开团圆月饼,切的人预先算好全家共有多少人,不能切多也不能切少。月饼与中秋节的联系是在明代。具有关资料说,当时,北京城市里出现了一种以果做馅的月饼,而人们在中秋节这一天自己制作月饼,用于自身和赠于亲朋好友,以表达团圆和祝贺之意。那时的月饼大小和形状很不规范,差别甚大,其名称也颇特别。比如,山西省介县一带在中秋节这天,当地老百姓已有合家围坐分食团圆月饼的习俗其制作的月饼名堂多且有趣,如有专供男的食用的月牙月饼,有只限于女的享用的葫芦月饼,还有特别为小孩们准备的孙悟空,兔儿爷之类的月饼,等等。名目繁多,不一而足。

篇七:我家的中秋节

皎洁的月光,射在了宽阔的院子里……那一天,正是中秋。

中秋节的夜晚,我和小伙伴们来到小河边点灯笼,大家都聚集在小河边。顿时,小河边充满了幸福快乐的气氛,充满了甜蜜的童年味道,充满了愉快的笑声……点灯笼游戏开始了,我们每个人都有一个可爱的小灯笼,我们把灯笼插在了泥土上,每个人插灯笼的地方都不同:有的插在小河边,好像一颗美丽的仙女草点缀着小河;有的正插在草丛中发出光亮,好像一颗闪闪的夜明珠;有的插在离草地远一些的小桥边,向那里一看,就像一只只闪着微光的小萤火虫……我们玩了许久,才回家吃月饼。

刚回到家门口,就听到一阵朗朗的读书声:中秋节的夜晚,爷爷和孙子……我心里正奇怪着:这不是妹妹课本中的《爷爷和孙子》吗?没想到她那么会在这个时候用课文,万万想不到啊。我走进屋子里,见桌面上摆放着新鲜的水果和我最喜欢吃的月饼,真是口水直流三千尺呀!我摸了摸饥饿的肚子,向美味佳肴靠近。当我刚要拿一颗葡萄放入口中的时候,妈妈拍了一下我的手,说道:干嘛呀,跑步不能偷步,吃东西也不能偷步,知道吗?我嘟起小嘴,妈妈便向我投来生气的目光,我只好乖乖的变回妈妈的乖乖女。

过了不久,妹妹已经朗诵到:要是您变成月亮,该多好呀!您愿意吗?我愿意!爷爷自然地答上了。大家听了后,欢笑声充满了整个屋子……中秋节的夜晚,是我最开心、最幽默的一个童年时光!

中秋节的月亮,又圆又大又漂亮;中秋节的夜晚,又乐又苦又有趣——这就是我家的中秋节!

篇八:月圆中秋,中秋月圆

1300年前的中秋节,皎月当空,一位风流才子,仰月长叹:举头望明月,低头思故乡,月圆中秋,中秋月圆高中散文。他,就是李白。

1100年前的中秋节,皎月当空,一位忧郁君主,望月流涕:无言独上西楼,月如钩,寂寞梧桐深院锁清秋。他,就是李煜。

900年前的中秋节,皎月当空,一位豪迈诗人,对月抒情:但愿人长久,千里共婵娟。他,就是苏轼。

…………

20xx年前的中秋节,皎月当空。我,一个普普通通的小女孩,仰望圆月,心底却涌出一种莫名的忧愁。月依如从前那般圆,那般亮。中秋,依如从前那般团圆,那般热闹。而人,却不再是以前的人了。

依稀记得,那年中秋,月亮,也是这般的皎洁。月光下,我很快乐地帮外婆搬摇摆椅,帮自己搬小板凳,帮大家拿那甜甜的月饼。而后,大家会围坐在一起,一起赏月,一起聊天,一起吃月饼。那时,我会幸福地偎依在外婆身边,撒娇地缠着外婆给我讲故事。像那嫦娥奔月,吴刚伐桂……特别是唐玄宗游月宫的故事,我到现在还记忆犹新。传说那是在一年中秋佳节时,唐玄宗赏月一时兴起,命法师作法,进入月宫。在月宫中,唐玄宗忽听一曲,美妙婉转,如天籁之音,荡气回旋,甚觉悦耳。回到皇宫之后,熟通音律的唐玄宗把在月宫所听之曲编为《霓裳羽衣舞》……于是,在中秋之夜我的梦中便会浮现月宫,嫦娥,桂树和一群仙女,而她们,正翩翩起舞…………

可小时候毕竟是小时候,那时已成为不可触摸的记忆。长大后,我随父母回家读书,很少再记得天空中有个孤寂的月亮。但当我再次仰望皎月时,我感受到了她的静谧与温柔。

月,是美丽的象征。偶然想起有人说过,八月十五的月亮最圆,所以中秋预示着团圆,我不清楚这句话是不是真的,但我愿意相信它。就像我也相信,现在,我的外婆也一定站再月下,祝福着她的外孙女。不信你听,月,正用她独特方式,传递着祝福……我突然明白了月与中秋的含义:不是只有亲人在一起才是快乐,亲人心在一起一样是团圆。亲人不能永远在一起,在一起的只有心。即使远隔千里,只要心中有她,同样如近在咫尺。此刻,月正挥洒着她的轻纱,为这个中秋之夜渡上一层银色的光辉……

月的美丽与光辉亘古不变,从古至今,这传递着团圆与美好的月难道不是最美的吗?

月圆中秋,中秋月圆。

篇6:万圣节的习俗英语作文

Children in costumes race from house to house asking for treats. A carved pumpkin, called a jack-o-lantern, grins from a porch as the children pass. According to legend, jack-o-lanterns protect people in their homes from ghostly spirits.

Its all part of the fun on Halloween! The roots of Halloween stretch back thousands of years and borrow customs from several parts of the world.

Halloween is a holiday celebrated on October 31. By tradition, Halloween begins after sunset. Long ago, people believed that witches gathered together and ghosts roamed the world on Halloween. Today, most people no longer believe in ghosts and witches. But these supernatural beings are still a part of Halloween.

The colors black and orange are also a part of Halloween. Black is a symbol for night and orange is the color of pumpkins. A jack-o-lantern is a hollowed-out pumpkin with a face carved on one side. Candles are usually placed inside, giving the face a spooky glow.

Dressing in masks and costumes is a popular Halloween activity. Costumes can be traditional and scary, such as a witchs pointy hat and black gown. Costumes may also have a modern flavor. Many children dress up as movie characters or a favorite superhero.

But Halloween is not just for children. Many adults enjoy showing off their costumes at Halloween parties!

Once in costume, children go from house to house saying Trick or treat! In the past, children might play a trick on people who did not give treats. They might pelt houses with eggs or old tomatoes, or play other pranks. Today, childrens cries of Trick or treat! are usually rewarded with candy.

One of the oldest Halloween traditions comes from the ancient Celts, who lived in western and central Europe long ago. The Celts celebrated a holiday

y called Sa amhain on October 31. After sunset that day, people believed that spirits of the dead would rise and walk the earth. The Celts made offerings of food and drink to keep the spirits away.

Beginning about 2,000 years ago, the Roman Empire conquered many Celtic peoples. But Celtic traditions, including Samhain, remained strong in areas such as Ireland and Scotland, even after the Roman conquest.

The Roman Catholic Church tried to replace Samhain in 835 with All Saints Day, a day to honor saints of the Church. The eve of All Saints Day is October 31. It is called Allhallows or Hallowmas by the Church.

Halloween first came to America with early settlers from Celtic areas in Europe, such as Ireland and Scotland. But other American settlers with strict religious beliefs, including the Puritans from England, rejected Halloween. The arrival of many Irish immigrants during the 1800s helped spread Halloweens popularity.

But by the late 1800s, fewer people believed in ancient superstitions of ghosts and witches. Halloween became more a holiday for children to receive treats and dress in costume.

In China, Mid-autumn Day is considered to be a symbol of family reunion. On this day, all the family members gather together at home to celebrate this special occasion. Last year, I could not celebrate the festival with my family because I was in university. However, this special day left a deep impression on me.

I still remember the atmosphere of that evening. All the students who could not go back home assembled in our classroom, having a party to celebrate this traditional festival. We tried our best to show our own enthusiasm. As an ethnic minority, I performed a peacock dance, which received warm applause. After the two-hour party, we went out to the playground and sat together to appreciate the moon because it is a tradition on Mid-autumn Day. We ate moon cakes, played cards, and listened to romantic poems recited by one of our classmates. In that harmonious atmosphere, nobody felt lonely or homesick even though we were far away from our homes.

Thanks to our classmates, I experienced such a colorful and interesting Mid-autumn Day at my university. Thus, I learned to value all the festivals I spent during my university life.

【参考译文】

在中国,中秋节是家人团圆的象征。在这一天,所有的家庭成员聚集在家里庆祝这个特殊的日子。去年,我不能和家人一起庆祝这个节日,因为我在大学里。然而,这个特殊的日子给我留下了深刻的印象。

我仍然记得那晚的气氛。所有不能回家的学生都聚集在我们的教室里,举行晚会来庆祝这个传统节日。我们尽力展示自己的热情。作为少数民族,我表演了孔雀舞,受到热烈的掌声。在两个小时的聚会之后,我们去了操场,坐在一起欣赏月亮,因为这是中秋节的传统。我们吃月饼,打牌,听浪漫诗朗诵我们的一个同学。在和谐的气氛中,没有人感到孤独或想家,即使我们远离家园。

多亏了我们的同学,我在大学里度过了这样一个丰富多彩的中秋节。因此,我学会了珍惜我在大学期间度过的所有节日。

After seeing so many movies about the youth, we are starting to wonder about what do we have in our youth, the fight, the drink or the love?

My answer is no.

What we see from the movie is not true, the plots are exaggerated and misunderstood.

For students, their youth is the process of fighting. They have studied so hard to realize their dreams.

When they are in primary school, they want to do well and make their parents be proud of them.

When they are in middle school and high school, they need to take part in the exams so as to enter the better future schools.

Even they are in college, they still need to study and fight for the ideal job. There is no doubt that most people keep fighting for their future and this is the memory of youth.

看了很多关于青春的电影之后,我们开始思考我们的青春有什么,打架,喝酒或谈恋爱?我的答案是否定的。

我们从电影看到的是不正确的,故事情节被夸大了,也被误解了。对于学生,他们的青春是战斗的过程。他们努力学习来实现梦想。

在上小学的时候,他们想要做的很好,让父母为他们感到骄傲。当他们在初中和高中的时候,需要参加考试,以便将来进入更好的学校。甚至在大学,他们仍然需要学习和争取理想的工作。毫无疑问,大多数人一直在为自己的未来奋斗,这是青春的记忆

When I was very small, I was so envious about the adults, because they could do whatever they wanted and did not have to depend on their parents. For me, I did not have money and my parents limited my pocket money, so I couldn’t spend the money to buy whatever I wanted. It seems to me that being an adult is my only wish. Some day, I learned from the movie that being an adult was not that as perfect as I thought.

In the movie, the man struggled to earn money to pay his bills, what’s more, he had to stay away from his family.

Loneliness was always around him. To be independent means we can live our own way and make our own decision. We have more freedom. But at the same time, it also means more annoyance. So why just we enjoy this moment.

在我很小的时候,我很羡慕成年人,因为他们可以做任何他们想做的,不必依赖他们的父母。对我来说,我没有钱,我的父母限制我的零花钱,所以我无法花钱去买所有我想要的。似乎成为一个成年人是我唯一的愿望。有一天,我从这部电影中了解到,作为一个成年人也没有我想象中的那么完美。在电影中,那个人努力挣钱来支付他的账单,更重要的是,他不得不远离他的家人。寂寞总是是围绕着他。独立意味着我们可以有自己的方式生活,做自己的决定。我们有的自由。但与此同时,这也意味着的烦恼。所以为什么不享受这一刻呢。

Today, we live in the modern world, most things we do can use the machine. The technology brings so many convenience to us, it facilitates our life. As we are facing the new products all the time, the traditional things are fading away. Take the paper-cut for example. When I was very small, paper-cut was so popular in my grandma’s generation, most women could cut all kinds of interesting shapes.

While today when I went back to my hometown, I found that most of them had stopped cutting papers, because they could buy them at the very low price.

What’s more, the young people don’t learn such art, for the parents think it is not necessary for their children to learn the old-fashion thing. The tradition should not be abandoned, it is the reflection of our culture. Even facing the challenge, we need to inherit the tradition.

今天,我们生活在摩登时代,我们可以使用机器做大部分的事情。科技给我们带来了很多方便,它便利了我们的生活。我们每天都面对着新产品,传统的东西正在慢慢消失。以剪纸为例。在我很小的时候,在我祖母的那一代,剪纸很受欢迎,大多数女性可以剪出各种有趣的形状。现在当我回到家乡时,我发现他们中的大多数已经停止剪纸,因为他们可以以很低的价格购买。更重要的是,年轻人不了解这种艺术, 以为父母认为他们的孩子没有必要去学习这种不时髦的东西。传统不应该被放弃,这是我们文化的反映。甚至面临挑战,我们仍然需要继承传统。

夜早已来临。如水的月光透过窗户洒进各家的房屋里照亮了人们的心房。就在这个时候有多少人正与亲人们团聚在一起在团圆的喜悦中吃着月饼在月饼的甜美中仰望那一轮圆圆的明月。

也在这个时候又有多少的游子们正站在窗前也在看着那十五的月亮。不过在他们眼里出现的并不是一轮圆圆的明月而是亲人们微笑的脸庞。在他们心底燃烧的并不是与亲人团聚的喜悦而是浓浓的思乡之情。

中秋是让人思乡的日子。

我从来没有过这种浓浓的乡愁因为我每天都与亲人在一起。在我看来天天都是中秋日日都是十五。无论是晴天、阴天、还是雨天我总能感到温暖的亲情总能看到一轮圆月。但我却希望可以体会一下思乡的感情。因为我知道我在想家的时候家也在思念着我所以我感到的并不是思乡的愁绪而是亲情的温暖。

今天是中秋节,我和爸爸妈妈一起坐在阳台上,吹着凉爽的秋风,一边赏月一边吃月饼。我问妈妈:“为什么中秋节要吃月饼呀?”妈妈就给我讲了观于中秋节的习俗

每年8月15日,是传统的中秋佳节。这是的中秋是一年四季的中期,所以被称为中秋。在中国的农历里,一年分为四季,每季又分为孟。仲。秀三个部分,因而中秋也称仲秋。8月15的月亮比其他几个月的月亮更圆满,更明亮,所以又叫月夕,八月节。此夜人们仰望玉如盘的朗朗明月,自然会期盼家人团聚。所以又叫团圆节。

在我国,城乡群众过中秋都有吃月饼的习俗,俗话中有:“八月十五月正圆,中秋月饼香又甜。”月饼最初是用来祭师月神的祭品。月饼一词,最早见于南宋吴自牧的《孟良录》中,那是它也只是象菱花饼一样的食品。后来人们逐渐把中秋赏月与品尝月饼结合在一起,寓意家人团圆的象征。

听着妈妈所说的我禁不住想起一首苏东坡的《水调歌头》:明月是有,把酒问青天。不知天上宫阙,今夕是何年?我与生风归去,有空琼楼玉宇,高处不胜寒!起舞弄清影,何时在人间?转朱阁,低绮户,照无眠。不应有恨,何事长向别时圆?月有阴情圆缺,人有悲欢离合,此事古难全。但愿人长久,千里共婵娟。

The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month of the Chinese calendar (usually around mid- or late-September in the Gregorian Calendar), a date that parallels the Autumn Equinox of the solar calendar. At this time, the moon is at its fullest and brightest, marking an ideal time to celebrate the abundance of the summers harvest. The traditional food of this festival is the mooncake, of which there are many different varieties.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the two most important holidays in the Chinese calendar (the other being the Chinese Lunar New Year), and is a legal holiday in several countries. Farmers celebrate the end of the summer harvesting season on this date. Traditionally, on this day, Chinese family members and friends will gather to admire the bright mid-autumn harvest moon, and eat moon cakes and pomeloes together. It is also common to have barbecues outside under the moon, and to put pomelo rinds on ones head. Brightly lit lanterns are often carried around by children. Together with the celebration, there appear some special customs in different parts of the country, such as burning incense, planting Mid-Autumn trees, lighting lanterns on towers, and fire dragon dances. Shops selling mooncakes, before the festival, often display pictures of Change, floating to the moon.

Mooncake is often eaten during the festival.Typical mooncakes are round or rectangular pastries, measuring about 10 cm in diameter and 4-5 cm thick. A thick pasty filling is surrounded by a relatively thin (2-3 mm) crust and may contain yolks from salted duck eggs. Mooncakes are rich, heavy, and dense compared with most Western cakes and pastries. They are usually eaten in small wedges accompanied by Chinese tea.

导语:每个人都有自己的妈妈,你喜欢你的妈妈吗?下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀英语作文,欢迎阅读与借鉴,谢谢!

My mother has no idea that her ninetieth birthday is coming up. She has no notion of the time of day, the day of the week. the season of the year, the year of the century. No notion of the approaching millennium. And no idea any longer, who I am. Her forgetting of me happened just a few months ago, after I had been traveling for more than a month and hadnt been to see her. When I came back, she asked me if I were her niece, l said no, I was her daughter. "Does that mean I had you?" she asked. 1 said yes. "Where was I when l had you?" she asked me. I told her she was in a hospital in Far Rockaway. New York. "So much has happened to me in my life." she said "You cant expect me to remember everything."

My mother was once a beautiful woman, but all her teeth are gone now. Toothless. No woman can be considered beautiful. Whenever I visit her in the nursing home, she is sitting at the table in the common dining room, her head in her hands, rocking. Medication has eased her anxiety, but nothing moves her from her stupor except occasional moments of fear, too deep for medication. This is a room that has no windows, that lets in no light, in which an overlarge TV is constantly blaring, sending images that no one looks at where the floors are beige tiles, the walls cream colored at the bottom, papered halfway up with a pattern of nearly invisible grayish leaves. Many of the residents sit staring, slack-jawed, open mouthed. I find it impossible to imagine what they might be looking at.

When I walk into the dining room on the day of my mothers birthday, I see that she has already been served lunch. The staff has forgotten to hold it back. Though I told them a week ago that I would be providing lunch. She hasn’t touched anything on her tray except a piece of carrot cake, which she holds in her hands. The icing is smeared on her hands and face. I dont want my friends to see her smeared with icing, so I wet a paper towel and wipe her. This fills me with a terrible tenderness, recalling, as it does. a gesture I have performed for my children. As I wipe my mothers face, I see that her skin is still beautiful I hold her chin in my hand and kiss her forehead. I tell her its her birthday, that shes ninety years old. "How did that happen?" she asks. "I cant understand how that could happen."

l have brought her a bouquet of crimson, yellow, and salmon-pink snapdragons. She likes the flowers very much. She likes the name. "Snapdragons. It seems like an animal thats going to bite inc. But its not an animal, its a plant. Thats a funny thing,"

I have bought food that I hope will please my mother, and that will be easy for her to eat: orzo salad with little pieces of crayfish cut into it, potato salad, small chunks of marinated tomatoes. I have bought paper plates with a rust-colored background, upon which are painted yellow and gold flowers and blue leaves.

My friends Nola and Gary come for my mothers birthday. When we are about to leave, I tell my mother that Im going on vacation, mat I wont see her for three weeks, that 1 am going to the sea. "How will I stand that, how will I stand thats she says, but I know that a minute after I’m gone shell forget I was there.
