春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：

Chinese New Year or Spring Festival is the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays. It is sometimes called the "Lunar New Year" by English speakers. The festival traditionally begins on the first day of the first month (Chinese: 正月; pinyin: zhēng yuè) in the Chinese calendar and ends on the 15th; this day is called Lantern Festival. Chinese New Years Eve is known as chú xī. It literally means "Year-pass Eve".

Chinese New Year is the longest and most important festivity in the Lunar Calendar. The origin of Chinese New Year is itself centuries old and gains significance because of several myths and traditions. Ancient Chinese New Year is a reflection on how the people behaved and what they believed in the most.

Celebrated in areas with large populations of ethnic Chinese, Chinese New Year is considered a major holiday for the Chinese and has had influence on the new year celebrations of its geographic neighbors, as well as cultures with whom the Chinese have had extensive interaction. These include Koreans (Seollal), Tibetans and Bhutanese (Losar), Mongolians (Tsagaan Sar), Vietnamese (T?t), and formerly the Japanese before 1873 (Oshogatsu). Outside of Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan, Chinese New Year is also celebrated in countries with significant Han Chinese populations, such as Singapore, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand. In countries such as Australia, Canada and the United States, although Chinese New Year is not an official holiday, many ethnic Chinese hold large celebrations and Australia Post, Canada Post, and the US Postal Service issues New Years themed stamps.

Within China, regional customs and traditions concerning the celebration of the Chinese new year vary widely. People will pour out their money to buy presents, decoration, material, food, and clothing. It is also the tradition that every family thoroughly cleans the house to sweep away any ill-fortune in hopes to make way for good incoming luck. Windows and doors will be decorated with red colour paper-cuts and couplets with popular themes of “happiness”, “wealth”, and “longevity”. On the Eve of Chinese New Year, supper is a feast with families. Food will include such items as pigs, ducks, chicken and sweet delicacies. The family will end the night with firecrackers. Early the next morning, children will greet their parents by wishing them a healthy and happy new year, and receive money in red paper envelopes. The Chinese New Year tradition is a great way to reconcile forgetting all grudges, and sincerely wish peace and happiness for everyone.

Although the Chinese calendar traditionally does not use continuously numbered years, outside China its years are often numbered from the reign of Huangdi. But at least three different years numbered 1 are now used by various scholars, making the year 2009 "Chinese Year" 4707, 4706, or 4646.

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：春节正月习俗的英文介绍

The Chinese New Year celebrations are marked by visits to kin, relatives and friends, a practice known as "new-year visits" (Chinese: 拜年; pinyin: bài nián). New clothes are usually worn to signify a new year. The colour red is liberally used in all decorations. Red packets are given to juniors and children by the married and elders. See Symbolism below for more explanation.

On the days before the New Year celebration Chinese families give their home a thorough cleaning. There is a Cantonese saying "Wash away the dirt on ninyabaat" (年廿八，洗邋遢), but the practice is not usually restricted on ninyabaat (年廿八, the 28th day of month 12). It is believed the cleaning sweeps away the bad luck of the preceding year and makes their homes ready for good luck. Brooms and dust pans are put away on the first day so that luck cannot be swept away. Some people give their homes, doors and window-frames a new coat of red paint. homes are often decorated with paper cutouts of Chinese auspicious phrases and couplets. Purchasing new clothing, shoes, and receiving a hair-cut also symbolize a fresh start.

In many households where Buddhism or Taoism is prevalent, home altars and statues are cleaned thoroughly, and altars that were adorned with decorations from the previous year are also taken down and burned a week before the new year starts, and replaced with new decorations. Taoists (and Buddhists to a lesser extent) will also "send gods" (送神), an example would be burning a paper effigy of Zao Jun the Kitchen God, the recorder of family functions. This is done so that the Kitchen God can report to the Jade Emperor of the family households transgressions and good deeds. Families often offer sweet foods (such as candy) in order to "bribe" the deities into reporting good things about the family.

The biggest event of any Chinese New Years Eve is the dinner every family will have. A dish consisting of fish will appear on the tables of Chinese families. It is for display for the New Years Eve dinner. This meal is comparable to Christmas dinner in the West. In northern China, it is customary to make dumplings (jiaozi 饺子) after dinner and have it around midnight. Dumplings symbolize wealth because their shape is like a Chinese tael. By contrast, in the South, it is customary to make a new year cake (Niangao, 年糕) after dinner and send pieces of it as gifts to relatives and friends in the coming days of the new year. Niangao literally means increasingly prosperous year in year out. After the dinner, some families go to local temples, hours before the new year begins to pray for a prosperous new year by lighting the first incense of the year; however in modern practice, many households hold parties and even hold a countdown to the new lunar year. Beginning in the 1980s, the CCTV New Years Gala was broadcast four hours before the start of the New Year.

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：First day 初一

The first day is for the welcoming of the deities of the heavens and earth, officially beginning at midnight. Many people, especially Buddhists, abstain from meat consumption on the first day because it is believed that this will ensure longevity for them. Some consider lighting fires and using knives to be bad luck on New Years Day, so all food to be consumed is cooked the day before. For Buddhists, the first day is also the birthday of Maitreya Bodhisattva (better known as the more familiar Budai Luohan), the Buddha-to-be. People also abstain from killing animals.

Most importantly, the first day of Chinese New Year is a time when families visit the oldest and most senior members of their extended family, usually their parents, grandparents or great-grandparents.

Some families may invite a lion dance troupe as a symbolic ritual to usher in the Lunar New Year as well as to evict bad spirits from the premises. Members of the family who are married also give red packets containing cash to junior members of the family, mostly children and teenagers.

While fireworks and firecrackers are traditionally very popular, some regions have banned them due to concerns over fire hazards, which have resulted in increased number of fires around New Years and challenged municipal fire departments work capacity. For this reason, various city governments (e.g., Hong Kong, and Beijing, for a number of years) issued bans over fireworks and firecrackers in certain premises of the city. As a substitute, large-scale fireworks have been launched by governments in cities like Hong Kong to offer citizens the experience.

The third and fourth day of the Chinese New Year are generally accepted as inappropriate days to visit relatives and friends due to the following schools of thought. People may subscribe to one or both thoughts.

1) It is known as "chì kǒu" (赤口), meaning that it is easy to get into arguments. It is suggested that the cause could be the fried food and visiting during the first two days of the New Year celebration.[citation needed]

2) Families who had an immediate kin deceased in the past 3 years will not go house-visiting as a form of respect to the dead, but people may visit them on this day.

Halloween originated as a celebration connected with evil spirits. Witches flying on broomsticks with ghosts, goblins and skeletons have all evolved as symbols of Halloween. Bats, owls and other nocturnal animals are also popular symbols of Halloween. They were originally feared because people believed that these creatures could communicate with the spirits of the dead.

万圣节起源于邪恶的精神与庆祝。骑着扫帚的女巫、幽灵，小妖精和骷髅都是万圣节的标志物。蝙蝠，猫头鹰和其他夜间活动的动物也是万圣节的普遍标志。他们原本担心因为人们认为这些动物能和死者的灵魂进行交流。

Black cats are also symbols of Halloween and have religious origins as well. Black cats were considered to be reincarnated beings with the ability to divine the future. During the Middle Ages it was believed that witches could turn themselves into black cats. Thus when such a cat was seen, it was considered to be a witch in disguise. All these are popular trick-or-treat costumes and decorations for greeting cards and windows.

黑猫也是万圣节的标志物，并且也有一定的宗教起源。人们认为黑猫转世的人与神的未来的能力。在中世纪，人们相信女巫可以变成黑猫。因此，当看到这样的猫，它被认为是一种变相的女巫。这些都是流行trick-or-treat服饰和装饰品贺卡和窗口。

Black is one of the traditional Halloween colors, probably because Halloween festivals and traditions took place at night.

黑色是传统的万圣节颜色，这可能是因为万圣节前夜的传统发生在夜间。

Pumpkins are also a symbol of Halloween. The pumpkin is an orange-colored squash, and orange has become the other traditional Halloween color. Carving pumpkins into jack- o-lanterns is a Halloween custom also dating back to Ireland. A legend grew up about a man named Jack who was so stingy that he was not allowed into heaven when he died, because he was a miser. He couldnt enter hell either because he had played jokes on the devil. As a result, Jack had to walk on the earth with his lantern until Judgement Day. So Jack and his lantern became the symbol of a lost or damned soul. To scare these souls away on Halloween, the Irish people carved scary faces out of turnips, beets or potatoes representing "Jack of the Lantern," or Jack-o-lantern. When the Irish brought their customs to the United States, they carved faces on pumpkins because in the autumn they were more plentiful than turnips. Today jack-o-lanterns in the windows of a house on Halloween night let costumed children know that there are goodies waiting if they knock and say "Trick or Treat!"

南瓜也是万圣节的标志性象征。南瓜是橘黄色的，和橘黄色也成了传统的万圣节的颜色。南瓜刻成杰克- O的灯是万圣节的风俗可以追溯到爱尔兰。传说有一个名叫杰克的人非常吝啬，不允许他进入天堂，当他死了，因为他是个吝啬鬼。他不能进入地狱，因为他捉弄魔鬼。作为一个结果，杰克不得不提着灯笼四处游荡，直到审判日。杰克和他的灯笼成为丢失或被诅咒的灵魂的象征。为了在万圣节前夜吓走这些游魂，爱尔兰人雕刻成可怕的面孔的萝卜，甜菜或马铃薯为代表的“杰克的灯笼，”或南瓜灯。当爱尔兰人迁到美国后，他们对南瓜雕刻的面孔，因为在秋天，他们比芜菁更丰富。在窗户上今天的南瓜灯在万圣节的晚上，让儿童知道有好吃的东西，如果他们敲门说“不给糖就捣蛋的等待!”

圣诞，英文是CHRISTMAS，美国韦氏辞典，认为这个字是由CHRIST+MASS合成的，其意义是“基督祭典”，而英国牛津辞典亦做相同解释。央格鲁撒克逊语“圣诞”一句，也一样是基督祭典之意。其它非英语系统国家，如法国、西班牙、意大利等，“ 圣诞”则有“生日”的意思。至于德国人，称圣诞节为“圣诞季”，但其原文则含有“圣夜”之意。圣诞节是一个普天同庆，人人皆欢乐的日子。世界上每一个国家或民族因为传统习惯的不同，其圣诞节习俗也各有差异。英国：他们认为圣诞节必须吃得痛快。所以圣诞大餐极为丰富，包括猪肉、烤火鸡、圣诞布丁、圣诞碎肉饼......等等。家里每一个人都有一份礼物，连仆人也有，礼物都在圣诞节的早晨分赠。有时逢唱诗班逐门逐户唱圣诞歌时，他们也会被主人请进屋里，招待茶点或赠予小礼物。

法国：在圣诞节前夕都要到教堂参加午夜弥撒。弥撒后家人同往年长兄姐家中团聚共享圣诞餐，并分享一年来家中要事。偶有家人不和之事，亦常因圣诞欢聚而尽释前嫌，言归于好。故圣诞节在法国人眼中，视为仁慈和睦的日子。

意大利：在意大利，每逢圣诞节，大家都喜欢在家中安置一些关于耶稣诞生故事的模型。圣诞的前夕，家人团聚吃大餐，到午夜参加圣诞弥撒，然后大家去访问亲戚朋友，但只有小孩和老人得到礼物。在圣诞节意大利有一种好风俗，孩儿为感谢父母一年来的教养，会在未吃圣诞大餐前将他们的作文或诗歌，暗藏在餐巾、桌布或碟子里。吃完大餐后便将它取出朗读。西班牙：该国的孩童常将鞋子放在窗口或门外，以接受圣诞礼物。在许多城市中，男孩子也常备有许多高级礼物，要送给美丽女子。“牛” 在圣诞节也受到最好的待遇。因当地有一传说：“耶稣降生时，曾有一只牛向他吐气，使他得到温暖”。瑞典：在圣诞佳期中，瑞典人非常好客，每一个家庭不论贫富都欢迎朋友来访，甚至连陌生人都可以进来吃东西。他们将各样的食品都摆在桌上，任人自由选择。瑞士：该国的圣诞老人穿白色长袍，戴假面具。它们往往由贫苦人装扮，成群结队向富人讨取食物和礼物，散队时才平分所得物。丹麦：最先出版圣诞邮票的国家。这种圣诞邮票的发行是为筹措防痨经费。丹麦人寄圣诞贺卡、邮件，都喜欢贴这种邮票。智利：该国在庆祝圣诞节时，必备一种“猴子尾巴”的冷饮。这种饮料是用咖啡、牛奶、鸡蛋、酒及已经发酵的葡萄制成。此饮品为何叫“猴子尾巴”已无人知晓。挪威：在圣诞节前夕，家中每一份子就寝前需将鞋子由大到小排成一列。挪威人认为家人如此做可以在

未来的一年里得到和睦与安宁。次日早晨，家人见面就互唱最喜爱的圣诞歌曲。爱尔兰：该国的家庭在圣诞前夕，会将一支蜡烛或灯放在窗门架上，表示欢迎圣婴降生。苏格兰：圣诞节前需将家中借来的物品一一归还原主。礼物是在新年的头一星期赠给小孩及仆人。荷兰：该国人赠送圣诞礼物往往出人意外，礼物甚至会藏在布丁、羊肠里呢!德国：圣诞树的发源国。基督徒的家里定会放置一颗美丽的圣诞树，圣诞饼亦多款且讲究。美国：一个自由且多彩的国家，圣诞节是他们快乐狂欢的日子。美国的民族复杂，所以其庆祝方式常因移民的不同而有所差异。大部分室内都有别致的布置，门外悬挂着美艳的花环及绮丽的饰物。

梵谛冈：如果你想在世界最大的圣彼得教堂参加由教皇亲自主持的圣诞弥撒，虽然那里可容纳三万五千人但仍需预先定位。其圣诞弥撒大多在十二月二十五日零时举行，教皇坐在八个侍从抬着的轿子上穿过群众，一边向信徒们祝福一边走上祭坛。教皇着白袍外罩金黄色祭服，登上圣彼得大教堂的祭坛，以拉丁语念出祷告词。零时整，号角手吹响的喇叭，安放于大祭坛上的摇篮本被覆盖着。这时，圣婴耶稣身上的白布被徐徐除下了。教堂内的各国信徒眼眶里含着热泪，以各自的语言唱出悠扬的“平安夜”。世界各地的天主教徒均视前往圣彼得大教堂，亲谒教皇，受其祝福，为一生中最大的荣幸。

日本：虽然日本非基督教国家，但战后日本过圣诞节的风气十分风靡。原因之一与各大商家的促销有关。有的百货公司以圣诞树作装潢，在店内布置雪景，增加银色圣诞的气氛。各色茶店、夜总会、酒吧也都安置一株圣诞树以应景。十二月中旬各商店人山人海，大家为准备圣诞礼物赠送亲友而忙碌。善心人士亦趁机致赠礼品予东京室内五十二所肢体及心智障碍的儿童。纽西兰：该国圣诞节有二周的假期。圣诞节前夕，家人朋友共聚一堂开“派对”庆祝。纽西兰的法律明文规定，庆祝圣诞需在家中举行，故酒楼、茶馆在下午六时一律打烊。普通商店营业时间最迟也只能到晚上九时为止。街上可见到穿着苏格兰短裙的乐队巡回演奏。非洲摩洛哥：在摩洛哥，平时不与平民见面的王族，在圣诞节当天，公主会在数千儿童的同乐大会上给贫苦儿童发礼物。波兰：波兰人分为两派。在圣诞前夕，一派吃圣诞大餐;另一派整日斋戒虔诚祈祷。菲律宾：该国过圣诞节从十二月十六日就开始。做九天的祈求，虔诚的教徒每天早晨四时就起床祈祷。他们相信如此可得圣婴耶稣及圣母马利亚的特别恩泽，直到二十二日为止，在三天来朝日才结束圣诞庆典。哥伦比亚：他们以化装舞会来庆祝圣诞。各人戴着假面具尽量不被人认出，凡能认出最多的人就可得到奖品。澳大利亚：适婚年龄的女子，在圣诞节时将溶锡倾入冷水中，看它的形状，来预测未来夫婿的外貌，高矮胖瘦。捷克：圣诞节未婚的捷克少女，把削好的苹果皮，抛在背后。她们以为这样做可以看出未来夫婿的姓氏之第一个字母。苏联：圣诞前夕，家人围绕着象征“新岁的树”，给孩子讲述荒诞的老祖父拓荒故事。在圣诞节当天，中产阶级以下的人，争往大商店抢购礼物互赠亲友。

Chritmas is the day that Jesus Christ was born. people in the world celebrate and worship this day in his honor. The santa claus will come out and send presents for children. Christmas cards and decorated trees are all over the place. The carolling of Christmas songs echo through the air. I am not a Chirstian， but I also enjoy the atmosphere of Chrismas. I wish everybody have a merry Chirismas.

Merry Christmas圣诞卡(圣诞卡片)在美国和欧洲很流行，也是为维持远方亲朋好友关系的方式之一。许多家庭随贺卡带上年度家庭合照或家庭新闻，新闻一般包括家庭成员在过去一年的优点特长等内容。

圣诞袜

最早以前是一对红色的大袜子，大小不拘。因为圣诞袜是要用来装礼物的，所以是小朋友最喜欢的东西，晚上他们会将自己的袜子挂在床边，等待第二天早上收礼。

圣诞帽

那是一顶红色帽子，据说晚上戴上睡觉除了睡得安稳和有点暖外，第二天你还会发现在帽子里多了点心爱的人送的礼物。在狂欢夜它更是全场的主角，无论你去到哪个角落，都会看到各式各样的圣诞帽。

宗教庆祝是以将临期/降临节开始的，将临期是对大约在11月尾基督降生预期的庆祝，将临期教会会有特别的活动或仪式.一般包括降临节颂歌，这段时间内使用将临期历庆祝，期间还会向儿童发送糖果和巧克力.在圣诞节前，教会会在教堂安排用许多圣诞活动，唱诗班也会在教堂里演唱圣诞歌曲. 在平安夜和圣诞节，特别活动包括子夜弥撒。

其他宗教信仰也会乘圣诞假日期间庆祝他们各自的冬季庆典。最明显的例子就是犹太教的光明节，在21世纪的今天，家庭成员在光明节内也开始互赠礼物了。

圣诞节同时也合理的为伊斯兰世界接受，因为耶稣在伊斯兰教里也是一位先知，庆祝他的降生是没有理由被拒绝的.圣诞节的世俗庆祝对在西方国家的穆斯林们来说已经变得非常普遍了。

这几年圣诞节越来越火了，每年的圣诞节前夕，大街小巷都是圣诞节的气息，我虽然对圣诞节不是很感兴趣，但也被这热闹的气息所感染。

教室已经布置好了，就等着圣诞节的到来了，好期待。

The origin of the Christmas

Christmas Day-December 25-which celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ, the founder of the Christian religion, is the biggest and best-loved holiday in the Christian World.

According to the Bible, the holy book of Christians, God decided to allow his only son, Jesus Christ, to be born to a human mother and live on earth so that people could understand God better and learn to love God and each other more. "Christmas"- meaning "celebration of Christ "- honors the time when Jesus was born to a young Jewish woman Mary.

Mary was engaged to be married to Joseph, a carpenter, but before they came together, she was found to be with child. Because Joseph, her husband, was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.

But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."

Although the exact date of the birth of Jesus nearly 2,000 years ago is not known, the calendar on the supposed date divides all time into B.C. (Before Christ )and A.D. ( a Latin phrase, Anno Domini, "in the year of our Lord.") For the first 300 years, Jesus birthday was celebrated on different dates. Finally, in the year 354, church leaders chose December 25 as his birthday.

一年有许多的节日,有中国传统节日春节,有属于我们的节日----儿童节,还有五一,十一等法定节假日.不过我最喜欢的不是这些节日,而是圣诞节.

圣诞节是世界上所有基督国家的节日,是为了纪念耶署基督诞生的节日.虽说它并不被中国人所看重,可我们仍然能看到圣诞节给生活带来的变化.首先,一些商家开始用圣诞节作推销,店铺门前摆满了和圣诞有关的商品:驯鹿呀!圣诞老人玩具呀!都成了特卖商品,也深受广大消费者的喜爱.其次,学校里也开展了许多圣诞活动,什么猜礼物,圣诞晚会,给人一种浓郁的节日气氛.圣诞节就这样慢慢地来临了.

我爱圣诞节不是只爱它的氛围,更是想得到自己的圣诞礼物.每年的平安夜,我都会静静地坐在,眼睛凝望着一颗颗在黑夜中闪烁的明星,心里带着期盼,希望自己第二天能够让自己的每梦成真.记得去年圣诞节,我许下想获得一只钢笔的愿望,结果第二天早上,一只崭新的钢笔就出现在我的床头,我喜出望外,赶紧将这个天大的消息告诉了妈妈,问她是怎么回事.可看着妈妈疑惑的眼神,一个神秘的念头闪过我的脑海中难道圣诞老人真的存在吗?

是的,在我看来,圣诞节就是这样一个氛围浓厚,充满神秘的节日.而且它也激励着我珍惜时间,一年只有一次圣诞节.每过一次,也就相当与我们又长大了一岁,一年里.你有什么收获.有什么经验.有什么不足和进步?我们更能将圣诞节当作一次学习的总结会,把圣诞礼物当作对好的一年的鼓励,把祝福当作对明年的鞭策,这不更好吗?

圣诞伴我成长,我爱圣诞节!

It is known to all that Christmas Day is on December 25th. It is the

biggest day in the western countries. But not so many people know about the

White Christmas in China. The day before Christmas Day, if it snows, then the

world is in white color. People are happy about that, because they think it

means the happiness and luck. So that’s the meaning of White Christmas. It

always snows a lot on Christmas Eve, because it is in winter in the western

countries. All the families get together and enjoy their moment while watching

the white snow. What an enjoyable atmosphere for a family.

正月十五吃元宵，在我国是由来已久习俗。人们在元宵节吃汤圆，实际上是思念亲人、渴望团圆的意思。

Eating Tangyuan is an important tradition for the Lantern Festival. Tangyuan, also know as yuanxiao, is a Chinese food made from glutinous rice flour mixed with a small amount of water to form balls and is then cooked and served in boiling water.

吃汤圆是元宵节的一项重要习俗。汤圆，又名“元宵”，是由糯米粉等做的球形食品，一般有馅料，煮熟带汤吃。

Traditionally, the balls come stuffed with sweet black sesame paste, although the fillings can vary. Tangyuan are eaten during Lantern Festival because of a homophone for union.

通常用黑芝麻做馅，但又不仅限于黑芝麻。据说元宵象征合家团圆美好，吃元宵意味着新的一年合家幸福、团团圆圆，所以正月十五元宵必备。

Decorating and hanging lanterns is the main tradition of the festival, with lanterns big and small hung around households, parks, streets and other public spaces. Red lanterns of various shape and type will attract countless visitors to watch.

正月十五赏花灯是元宵节必有的另一项习俗。人们把大大小小的花灯悬挂于家门口、公园、街道或者其他公共场所。各式各样的红灯笼将会吸引无数的游客前来观赏。

Solving riddles on lanterns has been a popular tradition since the Song Dynasty. People write riddles on paper and stick them to the lanterns and if someone guesses correctly, they can pull the riddle off. The notes often contain messages of good fortune and wishes.

从宋代开始，猜灯谜就是一项非常受欢迎的民俗活动。人们把谜语写到纸上并悬之于灯，供人猜射。通常，谜底都是各种吉祥话和祝福。

The lion dance is one of the oldest traditions to celebrate the Chinese New Year. In ancient times, people regarded the lion as a symbol of bravery and strength and believed the dance could drive away bad fortune to protect people and their livestock. The custom has continued to the modern day and lion dances are performed at important events on the Chinese calendar, such as the Lantern Festival, to bring good luck.

舞狮子是另一项庆祝新春的古老习俗。在古代，人们把狮子作为勇气和力量的象征，认为舞狮可以消灾降福。所以舞狮子的传统就延续至今，并且每逢佳节或庆典，如元宵节都会以舞狮子来祈求好运。

Dragon dance is a form of traditional dance and performance in Chinese culture. Like the lion dance it is most often seen in festival celebration. The dance is performed by a team of dancers who manipulate a long flexible figure of a dragon using poles positioned at regular intervals along the length of the dragon.

舞龙灯是中国独具特色的民俗活动。与舞狮子一样，每逢佳节，人们都要耍龙灯。表演者由数十人组成，每人用一杆间隔支撑起一条长龙。

Chinese dragons are a symbol of China, and they are believed to bring good luck to people, therefore the longer the dragon in the dance, the more luck it will bring to the community.

龙是中国的象征，相传龙能够带来吉祥和好运。耍的龙灯越长，就越能给当地人民带来好运。因此，每逢春节、元宵节，人们都会举行耍龙灯的活动。

Walking on stilts, or Cai Gaoqiao, is another popular traditional performance for the Lantern Festival, especially in Northern China. According to the archives, our Chinese ancestors began using stilts to help them gather fruits from trees. This practical use of stilts gradually developed into a kind of folk dance.

踩高跷是元宵节的另外一项重要民俗，尤其是在北方地区。根据记载，我们的祖先踩高跷是为了从树上摘果子。之后，高跷就发展成为一种群众性技艺表演艺术。
