端午节的高一英语优秀20篇

“五月初五是端午，端午就在五月五……”听到这首歌谣，快乐的端午节就跃然眼前。正当我遐想时，奶奶端着一盘香喷喷的粽子出现了。

粽子!棕的棕，黄的黄，穿着绿色的皮夹袄，泛着淡淡的清香。端午节怎么少得了粽子嘛!吃粽子这个习俗，还要从屈原说起：伟大的爱国诗人屈原，为了国家悲愤跳江，老百姓为了留住屈原的尸体，往江里扔饭团，现在，这饭团就演变成美味可口的粽子。想着，我咬下一口粽子，这真是好滋味!粽子是我爱吃的食物，样子呈三角体，小巧可爱，最好看的是它的“绿外套”，是用箬叶包的，清新的绿色会让你食欲大振。粽子也很“人性化”，它的“肉”有黄有棕，就像白种人和黑种人，那是因为粽子有不同的馅儿，就像人有不同的个性，不同的个性搭配不同的皮肤，才是独一无二的!

吃过美味的粽子，我来到江边散步，辽阔的江河，一望无际。我仿佛看到了屈原站在江边痛苦的样子，仿佛亲眼目睹他跳江的过程，仿佛明白了他的心思，这让我肃然起敬。是啊，“爱国屈原尸何归，百姓为其过端午”。这使我对端午节有了新的认识，对“爱国”有了新的概念。其实，端午节吃粽子、赛龙舟、挂艾草、挂香包、吃五黄等习俗都是在爱国，都是在传承中国文化。我们的端午节，是要弘扬爱国主义精神，而不是所谓的“小长假”，但是人们快要这些中国传统文化淡忘了……

吃着粽子，我们为什么不想想屈原呢?看着划过的龙舟，我不禁大声喊起“加油”来——没错，作为龙的传人，要保留好祖国传统文化啊!

My little cousin is only ten, but he knows more than any students in his grade.

He likes computer games and he is crazy about music. When he is free, he always listens to music. He likes many kinds of music, like country music, pop music, jazz and classical music.

He hates noise, when it is very noisy, he will be very angry and shout until people become quiet. So of course, he doesn’t like public places.

One day, I went shopping with him. On our way we saw a beggar. He thought the beggar was a drunk, and he wanted to tell him not to drink too much wine. But I told him that he was a beggar, he is very poor. To my surprise, he came in front of the beggar and gave him $5. Isn’t he kind?

He is like his father. They are both very kind and friendly, and a little funny. They both have big eyes and little mouth.

Although he is ten, his room is full of toy planes and toy buses.

This is my little cousin. Is he lovely?

我国古代有一位爱国诗人叫屈原，他遭谗言被放逐后，无力拯救危亡的国家，悲愤过度，于是投江自尽，以生殉国。人们为了不使鱼虾吃掉他的尸体，纷纷将捏成的各种各样的饼子投入江中，用来喂饱水中的动物，有的划着船在水上敲锣打鼓驱赶水兽。这便成为现在端午节，吃粽子、炸糕点、赛龙舟的由来。

说到这里，我又想起了我家过端午节的情景。奶奶捏了种类不同的饼子，有小花，小人，小海星，真是形态各异。妈妈急着去买菜角，爸爸不慌不忙地拉着我去买粽子。排着长长的队，好似一条长龙，我们好不容易才买到了粽子。可以看出，家家户户都很重视这个节日，人们用这种方式来表达对屈原的思念和崇敬。

The Dragon Boat Festival comes from the story of qu yuan, a patriotic poet qu yuan out a good idea to rich countries qiangming, but not adopted by the king, he was kicked out of the palace. Qu yuan was so angry that he jumped into the miluo river. The local fisherman learned that he rowed a boat to the miluo river to the miluo river. Later, the bamboo tube was changed to zongzi, and the boat was changed to the dragon boat to commemorate qu yuan. Our family is very impressed with qu yuan, so we celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival every year.

The traditional custom of the Dragon Boat Festival is eating zongzi. Our family has a really good zongzi -- my mother. Every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, our whole family can eat delicious dumplings. Momma always said: the rice dumplings with reeds are the most fragrant. Therefore, every year, the mother of the Dragon Boat Festival USES the leaves of the reed to make zongzi. Before making zongzi, she prepared herself: boil the leaves of the reeds in the water and wash them separately. When the reed leaves were cold, she began to make zongzi. Her first three leaf, this three leaves into a cone, then put a date first, and then put on inside glutinous rice, middle to clip a few dates, the last thread tied leaves, a rice dumplings wrapped. Her dumplings are fat and big, like the old Buddha sleeping. After the dumplings have finished, mom put them in a pressure cooker for 40 minutes, then another three or four hours to make it taste and then eat it! My mothers dumplings are very fragrant, so that when I see the zongzi, I will eat them. So, when eating zongzi, I always eat a lot!

The Dragon Boat Festival besides the need to eat zongzi, also the dragon boat!

I like watching dragon boat RACES the most, and dozens of mariners, with their OARS, struggling to make their way to the drum, beat the drum and beat the drum. "Come on, come on! The outside cheerleaders were enthusiastic, thundering and cheering, and the sailors were forced to row harder. The scene of the dragon boat race was spectacular and enthusiastic.

Eating zongzi and racing dragon boat racing, the two traditional customs jointly knit together a hot and noisy Dragon Boat Festival.

A long time ago,there was an emperor who told his horseman that if he could ride on his horse and cover as much land area as he liked,then the emperor would give him the area of land he would have covered.

Sure enough,the horseman quickly jumped onto his horse and rode as fast as possible to cover as much land area as he could.He kept on riding and riding,whipping the horse to go as fast as possible.When he was hungry or tired,he did not stop because he wanted to cover as much area as possible.

Finally,the horseman came to a point when he had covered a substantial area but was exhausted and dying.He asked himself,"Why did I pushmyself so hard to cover so much land area?Now I am dying and I only need a very small area to bury myself."

The above strory is similar with the journey of our life.We push very hard everyday to make more money,to gain power and recognition.We neglect our health,time with our family and to appreciate the surrounding beauties and the hobbies we love.One day when we look back,we will realize that we dont really need that much,but then we cannot turn back time for what we have missed.

So,take it easy!Do what you want to do and appreciate nature.Life is fragile;life is short.Dont take life for granted.Live a balanced lifestyle and enjoy life!

My hobby is fishing. I am fond of going fishing, for it is both interesting and iastructive-It tempers my willpower. Last Sunday I went fishing with my friend, He Ping. We started at daybreak. After three hours cycling, we arrived at the outskirts of Hefei and came to a stream. The water is clear and clean. One can see fish swimming. The meadow sprinkled with buttercups slopes to the stream. It is a good place for fishing.

In a few minutes everything was ready. Putting the bait of earthworms on the hook, dropping the hue into the strum, we sat there fishing with rod in hand. An hour passed. I did not catch a single fish. I lifted the fishing rod time and again. Time and again I was disappointed. There was no fish on the hook. On the other side of the stream, He Ping had caught several fish, one of which was very big.

How comes it that you catch fish casily while it is so difficult for me? I asked.

it s easy. Only you need Io be patient. He Ping answered. Make sure that you lift the fishing rod when the whole flat has sunk. I m sure a fish will greet you on the hook.

After a while the floats were swinging. I kept my breath and waked. The floats became still again. Come on my hook, dear fish. I was saying to myself. In a moment the floats swang again and then sank abruptly, Just at that moment I lifted my fishing rod. To my delight I caught a fish. Grlnning, I took it off the hook.

Duanwu Festival (端午节， Duānwū Jié) is a traditional Chinese festival held on the fifth day of the fifth month of the Chinese calendar. It is also known as the Double Fifth.[citation(引用;引证) needed] It has since been celebrated, in various ways, in other parts of East Asia as well. In the West, its commonly known as Dragon Boat Festival.

The exact origins of Duan Wu are unclear, but one traditional view holds that the festival memorializes the Chinese poet Qu Yuan (c. 340 BC-278 BC) of the Warring States Period. He committed suicide by drowning himself in a river because he was disgusted by the corruption of the Chu government. The local people, knowing him to be a good man, decided to throw food into the river to feed the fish so they would not eat Qus body. They also sat on long, narrow paddle boats called dragon boats, and tried to scare the fish away by the thundering sound of drums aboard the boat and the fierce looking carved dragon head on the boats prow(船头)。

In the early years of the Chinese Republic, Duan Wu was also celebrated as "Poets Day," due to Qu Yuans status as Chinas first poet of personal renown(名声名望)。

Today, people eat bamboo-wrapped steamed glutinous(粘的) rice dumplings called zongzi (the food originally intended to feed the fish) and race dragon boats in memory of Qus dramatic death.

i was thirty-seven then, strapped in my seat as the huge 747 plunged through dense cloud cover on approach to the hamburg airport. cold november rains drenched the earth and lent everything the gloomy air of a flemish landscape: the ground crew ran gear, a flag atop a squat airport building, a bmw billboard. so germany again.

37岁的我端坐在波音747客机上，庞大的机体穿过厚重的夹雨云层，俯身向汉堡机场降落。11月砭人肌肤的冷雨将大地涂得一片阴沉，使得身披雨衣的地勤工、呆然垂向地面的候机楼上的旗，以及bmw广告板等的一切的一切，看上去竟同佛兰德派抑郁画幅的背景一般。罢了罢了，又是德国，我想。

once the plane was on the ground soft music began to flow from the ceiling speakers: a sweet orchestral cover version of the beatles " norwegian wood". the melody never failed to send a shudder through me, but this time it hit me harder than ever.

飞机刚一着陆，天花板扩音器中低声传出轻柔的背景音乐，那是一个管弦乐队演奏的甲壳虫乐队的《挪威的森林》。那旋律一如往日地使我难以自已。这一次，比往日还要强烈地摇撼着我的身心。

i bent forward in my seat, face in hands to keep my skull from splitting open. before long one of the german stewardesses approached and asked in english if i was sick. "no," i said, just dizzy"

为了不使头脑胀裂，我弯下腰，双手捂脸。很快，一位德国空中小姐走来，用英语问我是不是不大舒服。我答说："不要紧，只是有点晕。

"are you sure?"

"yes, im sure. thanks."

"真的不要紧?"

"不要紧的，谢谢。"我说。

she smiled and left, and the music changed to a billy joel tune. i straightened up and looked out the plane window at the dark clouds hanging over the north sea, thinking of what i had lost in the course of my life: times gone forever, friends who had died or disappeared, feelings i would never know again.

她于是莞尔一笑，转身走开。音乐变成彼利·乔的曲子。我直起了腰，望着北海上空阴沉沉的云层，浮想联翩。我想起自己在过去人生旅途中失去的许多东西——蹉跎的岁月，死去或离去的人们无可追回的懊悔。

the plane reached the gate. people began unlatching their seatbelts and pulling baggage from the storage bins, and all the while i was in the meadow. i could smell the grass, feel the wind on my face, hear the cries of the birds. autumn 1969,and soon i wou1d be twenty.

机身停稳后，旅客解开安全带，从行李架中取出皮包和上衣等物。而我，仿佛依然置身于那片草地之中，呼吸着草的芬芳，感受着风的轻柔，谛听着鸟的鸣啭。那还是1969年的秋天，我快满20岁的时候。

…

true, given time enough, i can bring back her face. i start joining image-her tiny, cold hand; her straight, black hair so smooth and cool to the touch; a soft, rounded earlobe and the microscopic mole just beneath it; the camels hair coat she wore in the winter; her habit of looking straight into your eyes when asking a question; the slight trembling that would come to her voice now and then (as if she were speaking on a windy hilltop)-and suddenly her face is there, always in profile at first, because naoko and i were always out waking together, side by side. then she turns to me, and smiles, and tilts her head just a bit, and begins to speak, and she looks into my eyes as if trying to catch the image of a minnow that has darted across the pool of a m1impid spring.

当然，只要有时间，我会忆起她的面容。我追忆着：那冷冰冰的小手，那流线型泻下的手感爽适的秀发，那圆圆的软软的耳垂及其紧靠底端的小小黑痔，那冬日里时常穿的格调高雅的驼绒大衣，那总是定定注视对方眼睛发问的惯常动作，那不时奇妙发出的微微颤抖的语声(就像在强风中的山岗上说话一样)—随着这些印象的叠涌，她的面庞突然自然地浮现出来。最先出现是她的侧脸，大概因为我总是同她并肩走路的缘故，最先想起来的每每是她的侧影。随之，她朝我转过脸，甜甜地一笑，微微地低头，轻轻地启齿，定定地看着我的双眼，仿佛在一混清澈的泉水里寻觅稍纵即逝的小鱼的行踪。

i do need that time, though for naokos face to appear. and as the years have passed, the time has grown longer. the sad truth is that what i could recall in five seconds all too soon needed ten, then thirty, then a full minute——like shadows lengthening at dusk. someday, i suppose, the shadows will be swallowed up in darkness. there is no way around it: my memory is growing ever more distant from the spot where naoko used to stand-ever more distant from the spot where my old self used to stand. and nothing but scenery, that view of the meadow in october, returns again and again to me 1ike a symbolic scene in a movie. each time it appears, it delivers a kick to some part of my mind. "wale up," it says. "i’m still here! wake up and think about it. think about why im still here." the kicking never hurt me. theres no pain at all. just a hollow sound that echoes with each kick. and even that is bound to fade one day. at the hamburg airport, though, the kicks were longer and harder than usual which is why i am writing this book: to think. to understand! it just happens to be the way im made. i have to write things down to feel i fully comprehend them.

但是，让直子的面影在我脑海中浮现出来，我总是需要一点时间。而且，随着岁月的流逝，所需的时间愈来愈长。这固然令人悲哀，但事实就是如此。起初5秒即可想起，渐次变成10秒、30秒、1分钟。它延长得那样迅速，竟同夕阳下的阴影一般，并将很快消融在冥冥夜色之中。哦，原来我的记忆正在同直子原来站立的位置步步远离，甚至逐渐远离自己一度站过的位置。而惟独风景，惟独那片10月草地的风景，宛如电影中的象征性镜头，在我的脑际反复推出。并且那风景执着地连连踢我的脑袋，说着："起来，我可还在这里哟!起来，起来想想，思考一下我为什么还在这里。"不过这种踢法一点也不痛，一脚踢来，只是发出空洞的声响。甚至这声响或迟或早也将杳然远逝。但是在这汉堡机场，它们踢得比往常更长久、更有力：起来，理解我!惟其如此，我才动笔写这篇文字。我必须形诸文字，才能弄得水落石出。

Duanwu Festival is a traditional Chinese festival held on the fifth day of the fifth month of the Chinese calendar. It is also known as the Double Fifth. It has since been celebrated, in various ways, in other parts of East Asia as well. In the West, its commonly known as Dragon Boat Festival.

The exact origins of Duan Wu are unclear, but one traditional view holds that the festival memorializes the Chinese poet Qu Yuan of the Warring States Period. He committed suicide by drowning himself in a river because he was disgusted by the corruption of the Chu government. The local people, knowing him to be a good man, decided to throw food into the river to feed the fish so they would not eat Qus body. They also sat on long, narrow paddle boats called dragon boats, and tried to scare the fish away by the thundering sound of drums aboard the boat and the fierce looking carved dragon head on the boats prow。

In the early years of the Chinese Republic, Duan Wu was also celebrated as "Poets Day," due to Qu Yuans status as Chinas first poet of personal renown。

Today, people eat bamboo-wrapped steamed glutinous rice dumplings called zongzi (the food originally intended to feed the fish) and race dragon boats in memory of Qus dramatic death.

端午节是中国的传统节日，在农历第五月第五日。它也被称为双第五。从那时起，东亚各国也以各种方式庆祝它。在欧美地区，它通常被称为端午节。

Duan Wu确切的起源尚不清楚，但一个传统的观点认为，这个节日是由中国诗人屈原战国时期。他因沉溺于一条河而自杀，因为他对楚国政府的腐败感到厌恶。当地人知道他是个好人，决定把食物扔到河里喂鱼，这样他们就不会吃屈原的尸体了。他们长时间坐在狭小的龙舟上，并试图把鱼儿吓跑的齐鸣声船和凶猛的雕龙头船的船头打鼓。

民国初年，端午节也被誉为“诗人节”，“由于屈原的地位，作为中国的第一诗人的个人名声。

今天，人们吃竹子包粽子称为粽子粽子(原本打算喂鱼的食物)和赛龙舟纪念屈原的戏剧性死亡。

真怀念啊!以往的端午节我都是和外公一起过的，今年虽然也是和“外公”一起过，但却不在是以前的那个外公了。

今年的端午节我是和“外公”一起过的吃着外公从店里买来的肉粽，思绪飘回了从前，如电影一般一幕幕的在我脑海中放映，回忆慢慢的交织着一张名为感情的网把我包围，使我渐渐沉沦。

外公准备包粽子了，便嘱咐大人们去摘粽叶，年幼的我自然要去凑一番热闹。大人们实在说不过我，就带我去了。

不到两小时，我们这个“摘粽叶大队”就回来了。

外公看看其他人，在看看我。其他人身上都背着一大捆粽叶，只有我的身上空空如也。外公宠溺的对我说：“你个调皮鬼又去哪里玩去了”。我对外公做了个鬼脸说：“我才不告诉你”

“哟，调皮鬼还生气了”外公说。

“都是你，让我生气”。我说道。

“好，好好，调皮鬼最乖了，最乖了，不生气”，外公说。

“不许在叫我调皮鬼了”，我说道。

“好，好好，不叫调皮鬼，不叫调皮鬼”，外公说。

“我要吃外公你给我做的排骨肉粽”，我说道。

“好”外公说道

当时外公家里经济条件并不是很好，但外公对我的要求粽是会满足。

“好诶，可以吃粽子，吃外公包的排骨肉粽!”我说

“粽子，还没包好呢，先等一会儿”

我听完这句花以后，就去找我的小伙伴玩去了。完累了，就去睡了。

在睡梦中被一阵粽子的清香勾引了起来，顺着这阵香味我走到了厨房，到了厨房才发现我还木有穿鞋。外公看着我笑了。

可惜，从此以后我再也吃不到外公包的粽子了。只希望，时间走的慢些，好让我永远记得这个味道。

随着，时间的流逝。我对外公的记忆也在逐渐忘却。但我对外公的爱是亘古不变的。
