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.citation 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 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.

The Dragon Boat Festival is one of the most popular traditional festivals

celebrated in China, which is on the fifth of the fifth lunar month, also known

as Duanwu Festival. It’s said that it is to commemorate the death of a Chinese

patriotic poet, Qu Yuan, who was snared by corrupt officials in ancient China

and finally committed suicide by drowning himself in the Miluo River to protest

against them.

The traditions and customs held on this festival differ from place to

place, but there are some common in them. First, the most famous and great

tradition is holding Dragon Boat races, which are held by fishermen’s attempt to

protect Qu Yuan’s body against attacking by fishes and other animals in the

river by beating drums and row the dragon shaped boat. Nowadays dragon boat

races have been an annual popular sport activity among people. In addition,

making and eating Zongzi—a dumpling made of glutinous rice and wrapped in bamboo

or reed leaves—is also a popular custom during this day. It can be made by many

kinds of stuffing. What’s more, hanging herbs on the front door, drinking

realgar wine and pasting up picture of Zhongkui—a mythic guardian figure in

ancient china—are also popular during the festival, which are mean to protect

people from evil and disease.

These customs and traditions have been changed a little in recent years,

but they still make contribution to the spread and inheritance of Chinese

culture.

The Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional festival of the han. It is a very important festival in our hometown, so every year the Dragon Boat Festival is very busy.

The Dragon Boat Festival is the most indispensable, nature is zongzi, every year the grandmother of the Dragon Boat Festival and everyone will pack hundreds of big dumplings! There are many kinds of dumplings, such as reed leaves, bamboo shoots, wild leaves and lotus leaves. But our hometown is a lot of reeds, so most of them are wrapped in reeds. First, grandma "rate the army" to pick reed leaves. When picking reed leaves, a large family listens to grandmothers labor trumpet: "come on! A zongzi three leaf! Hundreds of zongzi thousands of pieces, hey, come on!" Listen to the drum of the "general", "little soldier" more effort! After the reed leaves, just burn them. But the preparation material is not so simple, still have to go to the bazaar to buy the good red bean, the pork, the peanut, the plate millet, the jujube and the glutinous rice, also buy the red line!

Of course, the most fun time is when you make zongzi. When making zongzi, the man is responsible for cutting the meat into small pieces. Women are responsible for the washing of red beans and glutinous rice. The child was responsible for washing the basin clean, and then putting the mans work in a large basin. The older people are in charge. When everything is ready, the dumplings are started. The adults are working harder, and the kids? Is playing in a side, always when the adults do not pay attention to, to steal a couple of dates, mouth on the surface seems to be a little things didnt do, but in my heart secretly complacent - because jujube is delicious!

The final step is boiled dumplings, grandpa always keep the temperature of fire to grasp well, smell very sweet, very strong, if eating zongzi in the first, you can see the meat dumplings are always tender oil and see jujube rice dumplings are always the golden tender; The eight-treasure zongzi is always delicious, and we are cute.

Last year, my grandparents might have made zongzi, if they hadnt taken care of my uncle and aunt in yancheng. I was suddenly "disgusted" with my uncle, aunt, who had a good economic condition, why not find a babysitter? Take my joyful Dragon Boat Festival and zongzi all "take away", I be so angry! Or miss the delicious dumplings!

端午节是汉族的传统节日。在我们的家乡算得上是个特别重要的节日，所以每年的端午节都过得异常热闹。

端午节最不可少的，自然是粽子，每年端午节外婆和大家都会包上几百个大粽子呢!包粽子虽然有很多种，比如芦苇叶、竹笋叶、菰叶、藕叶等。但我们的家乡是芦苇比较多，所以大多都用芦苇叶包了。首先，外婆“率兵”去采芦苇叶。采芦苇叶时，一大家子听着外婆的劳动号子：“加油!一个粽子三片叶子!上百个粽子几千片，嘿哟，加油!”听了“将军”的鼓劲，“小兵”们更加卖力了!采完芦苇叶，现在只要将它们暴晒就行了。但准备材料可没有这么简单哟，还得去集市上买来上好的红豆、猪肉、花生、板粟、蜜枣与糯米，还要买红线呢!

当然，最好玩的时候还是包粽子的时候。包粽子时，男人负责把肉切成不大不小的块儿;女人负责洗红豆、糯米之类的;小孩负责把大盆洗干净，再把大人加工好的东西装在大盆里;而老人们则负责指挥。一切准备好之后，就开始包粽子了。大人们干得格外卖力，而小孩们呢?却在一旁玩着，总是在大人们不注意时，偷一两颗蜜枣往嘴里塞，表面上似乎一点儿事都没做，可心里却暗暗自喜——因为蜜枣太好吃了!

最后一步就是煮粽子，烧火的外公总是把火候把握的很好，味道很香、很浓，如果在第一时间内吃粽子，你看到的肉粽子总是嫩地流油，看到的蜜枣粽子总是金黄柔嫩;看到的八宝粽子总是很可口，我们可爱吃了。

去年，要不是为了去盐城替舅舅、舅妈照顾表哥，外公外婆可能在包粽子哩。我突然有些“厌恶”舅舅、舅妈，他们家的经济条件不错，为什么不找个保姆?把我的欢乐端午节和粽子都“夺走了”，我好生气呀!也好怀念那味香色美的粽子呀!

导语：端午节是中国的传统节日，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!

Today is the fifth day of May -- the Dragon Boat Festival, it is often said that the weight of five. I asked grandpa: "the Dragon Boat Festival is how come?"

Soon the rice dumplings out of the pot, eating the dumplings wrapped in their own hands, heart than eating honey sweet.

I like the Dragon Boat Festival, but also like to wrap the rice dumplings, eat rice dumplings.

【参考译文】

今天是 五月初五 ——端午节，也就是人们常说的重五。我问爷爷：“端午节是怎么来的?”爷爷说：“端午节是为了纪念我国古代的爱国人士屈原而来的。当时屈原还是楚国的朝廷命官，但是小人当道，朝廷昏庸。屈原不愿亲眼见着国家的覆没，就怀抱石头，投进了汨罗江。楚国的百姓闻讯后，纷纷划船营救。从此，便有了端午节的说法。

“世杰，过来。”这时，妈妈下令了。我走进厨房问：“妈妈，干什么?”“包粽子啊!”妈妈说。“这活儿，我哪行啊?”我难为情的说。妈妈说：“让你包，你就包，有妈妈这个老师在呢!”我答应着：“好吧!”我拿起竹叶，学着妈妈的样子，把竹叶卷成筒状，再用小勺挖米装进筒里，用竹叶把馅儿包好，用彩线捆起来。我和妈妈合伙把粽子包完了，然后就上锅蒸。不久粽子出锅了，吃着自己亲手包的粽子，心里比吃了蜜还甜。

我喜欢过端午节，更喜欢包粽子、吃粽子。

1911年辛亥革命以后，清朝统治被推翻，孙中山在南京建立中华民国政府。各省都督府代表在南京召开会议，讨论历法问题。会上达成了“行夏历，所以顺农时;从西历，所以便统计”的共识，决定使用公历，把公历1月1日定做“新年”，把农历正月初一称做“春节”，但并未正式命名和推广。1949年9月27日，中国人民政治协商会议第一届全体会议通过使用“公历纪年法”，将公历1月1日定为“元旦”，把农历正月初一定名为“春节”，并规定春节放假三天，让人们热烈地庆祝农历新年。

在两千多年的历史进程中，我国的新年礼俗经历了萌芽、定型、裂变、转型的发展过程。

Spring is coming. Birds are singing and flowers are blooming.

I wanted to plant spring in my home, so I, together with my dad, went to the market and bought some

flower seedlings.

We prepared to plant them in the yard. When we were backing home, we went into action in no time.

Some time later, we finished. I will patiently wait for spring to

come to the yard now.

导语：同样,最近几年端午节已经不局限于中国,成为国际性节日,而庆祝的人可能对节日的由来并不太了解。下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的有关端午节由来的作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

The Dragon Boat Festival， also called the Duanwu Festival， is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month according to the Chinese calendar. This festival is to commemorate the death of QU Yuan， an upright and honest poet and statesman who is said to have committed suicide by drowning himself in a river.

The most important activity of this festival is the Dragon Boat races. It symbolizes people‘s attempts to rescue Qu Yuan. In the current period， these races also demonstrate the virtues of cooperation and teamwork.

Besides， the festival has also been marked by eating zong zi (glutinous rice)。 Zong zi is made of glutinous rice stuffed with different fillings and wrapped in bamboo or reed leaves. People who mourned the death of Qu threw Zong zi into the river to feed his ghost every year.

With the changes of the times， the memorial turns to be a time for protection from evil and disease for the rest of year. People will hang healthy herbs on the front door to clear the bad luck of the house. Although the significance of the festival might be different with the past， it still gives the observer an opportunity to glimpse a part of the rich Chinese cultural heritage.

今天是六月八日,农历五月初五,也就是"端午节"。说起“端午节”,我还知道它有另外的几个名字呢!如“端阳节”、“女儿节”、“诗人节”。你知道它们的来历吗?让我来告诉你。由于在这一天,出嫁的女儿要回娘家来探望自己的父母亲而得名“女儿节”;“诗人节”当然是要纪念爱国诗人屈原，现在知道了吧?

早上，我吃过早饭，妈妈和奶奶带我出去玩。一路上，我嘻嘻哈哈、蹦蹦跳跳地走在前面,别提有多开心了。不知怎么的,我发现今天大街上有好多人,他们都买了树枝拿在手里。我很奇怪准备问妈妈，却发现妈妈和奶奶手里也各拿着一捆树枝，就连忙跑过去问：“妈妈你们买树枝干啥?啊!真香!”妈妈笑着说：“傻孩子，这是‘艾枝’。艾枝可以驱蚊子和苍蝇，还可以避邪呢!我们把艾枝挂在自己家的门上、窗户上，不是很好吗?”我点点头。

中午，我们家的饭菜有丰盛又香甜，除了家常菜外,还有漂亮的三角粽子、鸡蛋和鸭蛋，香气扑鼻。我立刻拿起一个较大的粽子，剥开粽叶，津津有味地吃着白嫩的糯米，好吃极了!

爷爷告诉我，端午节吃粽子是为了纪念爱国诗人屈原的爱国精神及崇高人格。其实这个我已经知道了,嘻嘻……

端午节真快乐，真有趣!又可以学到知识，增长见识。过端午节，真好!

她是一个很平凡的人。一张白皙而以俏丽的脸上；两道细溜溜的眉毛；一双小而有神眼睛，薄薄的嘴唇，常常挂着恬静的微笑。她个子不高，站在我们中间像是我们的一员。

她是一个很幽默，可爱的人。一次她在黑板上画了一只猴子，指着画，请了一个开小差的同学问她这是什么。她一慌之下把monkey说成了lizard。陆老师瞪大眼睛，装出一脸狐疑，轻声地问：“同学们，你们看到过像这种品种的lizard吗？下面一阵哄堂大笑。老师及时纠正说：“这是monkey，以后上课要认真听。”

有一次，有位同学上课在开小差，陆老师轻轻地走过去，拍拍他的肩膀说：“革命尚未成功，同志仍需努力啊！”小朋友有错误时，陆老师从不正面批评而是用巧妙的语言给予提醒。

在她的英语课上总是充满了欢声笑语，我们也越来越喜欢英语了！

这个节日的由来逝代中国有一位博学多闻的官吏屈原，他是一位爱民而且又受到尊崇的官吏，但是由於一位充满嫉妒的官吏陷害，从此在朝廷中被皇帝所冷落。由於无法获得皇帝的重视，屈原在忧郁的情况下投汨罗江自尽。

由於对屈原的爱戴，汨罗江畔的居民匆忙的划船在江内寻找屈原，并且将米丢入汨罗江中，以平息汨罗江中的蛟龙。即使他们当时并没有找到屈原，但是他们的行为，直到今天在端午节的时候，仍然被人们传颂纪念著。

The origin of this summer festival centers around a scholarly government official named Chu Yuan. He was a good and respected man，but because of the misdeeds of jealous rivals he eventually fell into disfavor in the emperors court.

Unable to regain the respect of the emperor，in his sorrow Chu Yuan threw himself into the Mi Low river. Because of their admiration for Chu Yuan， the local people living adjacent to the Mi Lo River rushed into their boats to search for him while throwing rice into the waters to appease the river dragons.

Although they were unable to find Chu Yuan，their efforts are still commemorated today during the Dragon Boat Festival.

Dragon Boat Festival Dragon Boat race is a unique folk activities, the causes of this event is to commemorate one of ancient China during the great poet - Qu Yuan established.

Each dragon boat is not at the speed of up and down: on the 1st minute lead on the 8th again and pretty soon to catch up with the. Van

Suddenly, it seems efforts to increase boating hand, each only a faster boat. At this time, the hands began to beat the drum-ming, rowing hand is immediately followed by the rhythm of the : Thunk! Thunk! Ho! Ho! Ho ho ho 。。。。。。 seems to boost the morale of God , has started drizzling. Really drum! Voice! Cheers! Blast sound! Rain! Sweat! Compatible with the river water!

Dragon pace, as if in the long rapid river groups in the FT. Gradually, gradually. 1, 5, 9, constitute the leading group. 100 meters! 50 meters! 20 meters. . . . . . The end draws near, only 5 of the power of the outbreak out of control! Two dragon boat to the back of far left behind, and then the finish line of the!

Dragon-boat race is a fierce competition ah!

赛龙舟是端午节的一种独特的民俗活动,这个活动的起因是为纪念我国古代时的一伟大的诗人——屈原而设立的。

我今年有幸去看了一次赛龙舟，因为爸爸当天正好有空，所以我们全家去看赛龙舟。到达赛龙舟的场地时，岸两边早已被围观的人们围得水泄不通了，我看了桥上的一个空挡，便叫家人挤了过去。这个位置居高临下整个江面一目了然。

赛龙舟开始了，每只龙舟都像一支离弦的箭，一个劲的向前冲，每一只龙舟下面都都绑着不少粽子，每向前一步，龙舟上都有人用刀子把粽子斩下扔进水里。每只龙舟的速度都不分上下：一会儿1号领先，不一会儿8号又追上了。

突然，划船手好像力气大增，每一只龙舟的速度更快了。这时，击鼓手开始鸣鼓了，划船手顿时很有节奏的跟着喊起：“咚!咚!咚咚咚!嗬!嗬!嗬嗬嗬……”天公也好像来助威，开始下起了毛毛细雨。真是鼓声!人声!助威声!声声震耳!雨水!汗水!江水水水相容!

龙舟的速度越来越快，仿佛龙群在江水中急速飞腾。渐渐的，渐渐的。1号，5号，9号构成了领先集团。100米!50米!20米……终点越来越近，只见5号的力量一发不可收拾的爆发了!把后面的两条龙舟远远地甩在后面，然后冲线了!

赛龙舟真是一项激烈的比赛啊!
