2017年关于国家春节放假通知 作文英语（实用20篇）

大年初二下午，我跟爸爸妈妈到姨妈家拜年。见到久别的表哥，我非常高兴，我们俩约定去小河边玩放鞭炮。

我们来到河边，表哥看见河边有许多小石头，就对我说：“弟弟，我们用鞭炮去炸石头吧?”我高兴地说：“好的。”就这样，我和表哥把一个个的鞭炮接二连三地扔进了石头堆里，听着它们噼哩啪啦的声音，我们兴奋极了。

突然，我和表哥听到了一个女人的声音，表哥做了个手式给我看，于是，我和表哥就按计划逃走了。

接着，我和表哥来到另一个空地上，用鞭炮摆了个七星阵。表哥先把七个鞭炮围绕一个中心点成圆形摆好，然后用打火机把一个鞭炮点燃，再快速地把它扔进七星阵的中间，就这样，七星阵里的鞭炮同时点燃，发出了震耳欲聋的爆炸声。“成功了!成功了!”我们欢呼起来。

我们一边放鞭炮，一边时刻记着妈妈说的要注意的安全问题，那些扔出去没点燃的鞭炮，我们就放弃它。所以我们没受一点伤。回家后，外婆看我们都平平安安的，还表扬了我们。我们开心极了!

Then, the representative of the bedroom Zhu Guozhang asked us to guess a line of a poem related to the above situation. He added that Li Xinmin alone was born in the year of the dog and the other three were all born in the year of the chicken.

They left us all in confusion. And it was our monitor who was quickwitted. He shouted our, "The day breaks as the cock crows three times at dawn." The hall After that, they had another item. This time Li Xinmin was placed in the middle of the circle. While he was standing there, the other three stood around him, each bowing down to him at an angle of 120 degrees. It was an idiom. This time I got it right:"The dog stands out among a group of chickens."

As has been reported in the newspapers, the sale of firecrackers and fireworks in Beijing was reduced by 52% this Spring Festival compared with last year. This shows that people have begun to change their ideas about celebration.   Firecrackers and fireworks used to be one of the main causes of air pollution and the most important cause of injury during the Spring Festival. Now with fewer firecrackers and fireworks, we see a much clearer sky and many fewer people with injuries, which hasresulted in a much happier festival atmosphere both outside in the street and inside at home. So we can predict that we will see a better environment next year.

The Spring Festival,also known as the Lunar New Year, is the greatest traditional festival. It is usually a time between late January or early February, which means rest and relaxation between winter and spring after a years toil,and means celebration as well. Before the Spring Festival, people clean their houses, put red couplets on their gates,and set off firecrackers, according to fairy tale, for driving a demon ,named Nian ,away. On the eve of the Spring Festival, a gettogether banquet is a must, and the most popular food is Jiaozi, which is supposed to bring good fortune.On the first day of the new year, everybody wears new clothes and greets relatives and friends with bows and congratulations wishingeach other the best during the new year.

Some adults take "red" heaven and earth to put, when it finished, Im a brainwave, buried the gun in red below the "red" heaven and earth, they just came up and gun blast, they like me, very embarrassed.

At noon, I was still in play, they put out the gun, I have a box also quickly put out, I put a gun in the box and dropped to the ground, they thought I must have dropped, rushed over to pick up, the result didnt pick up to blast, they shocked.

I just down for a while, suddenly left off, because they buy a gun back to play again, I ran out of the gun, they keep a man in the doorway, others throw the gun to me. I dodged their attack, and want to buy a gun, but also want to eat lunch, so I didnt go home.

Next time, I want to be with their game 1

The innocent and happy Spring Festival, hope I also like the Spring Festival happiness, hope you also like me happy, also very happy, and happy.

春节让我快乐，为什么呢?让我来告诉你吧!

一大早我就起床了，因为今天是春节，吃完早饭我们就去拜神了，可是我却去小店买炮，买完炮就去拜神，一看到炮我就没心思拜神了，只想着玩。有几个人向我丢了几颗火柴炮，把我吓死了。有些大人拿“天地红”来放，放完的时候，我灵机一动，把炮埋在红红的“天地红”的下面，他们刚走过来，炮就炸开了，他们和我一样，很狼狈。

中午的时候，我还在玩，他们的炮放完了，我有一盒也快放完了，我顺手把一颗炮放进盒子里，丢到地上，他们以为是我掉的，冲过去捡，结果没捡到就炸开了，他们吓了一大跳。

我刚威风了一阵子，一下子就败阵下来，因为他们买完炮回来又来打，我的炮用完了，他们有一个人守在门口，其他人向我丢炮。我躲开了他们的攻击，又想买炮，但是又要吃午饭了，所以我才回家。

下一次，我要和他们比赛呢1

春节那一天真快乐，希望以后也和春节一样快乐，也希望你和我一样快乐，还有很高兴，和愉快。

春节前一天是除夕，大家高高兴兴地在自己家门前贴春联，在厨房包饺子，吃饭前要放鞭炮。

我非常喜欢过春节，要天天都是春节那该多好呀!

Again, the Spring Festival in the cheers of the children, the ringing of firecrackers in the morning, it quietly again.

For many children, the arrival of the Spring Festival is happy, they sing, they dance, to celebrate their festival day yue. But for me, the Spring Festival is not so good, the arrival of the Spring Festival, but cant bring me joy. Because, I am a child of the poor. I wake up in the morning, when the Spring Festival just think: "if I can get parents accident in the morning of New Years money, can have a lot of snacks to eat, that it would be great! When thought of here cant help jumped out of bed, but the cruel fact had to let me out of the fire of hope in my heart. Im a telling myself: dont be wishful thinking, you are children of the poor, and then, I only sitting silently in the doorway, looking at other children happy smiling face.

Is a series of firecrackers, put me back from the past. Yes, I its time to get up, though not parents money, and the wide variety of snacks, but bed.

I finished at very fast speed wash and dress, when I step out the door, hall scene caught my eye, thats right! That is my mom and dad put out snacks, thats right! When I think of this, mother walked to come over, the hand also took a new 50 yuan, with infinite care, said: "lili, happy New Year, this is your lucky money this year, with good, dont lost!" I was stunned. Asked: "mom, family situation is bad, we get lucky money stem what?" Mom smiled: "silly child, reform and opening up so long, my situation is much better, is mom and dad Im sorry you before, but later, dont have to be poor, you can rest assured with good." "There are snack, eat more." Im bouncing, ran to the front of the dim sum, caught a handful, happily pigged out.

I lean against the door, in one hand and a snack, a hand holding mother gave me money, then looked at the group of children playing nearby broke, listening to the adults said bless "get rich" in the New Year, and is that a proliferation of firecrackers, heart feel carefree!

春节又到了，在孩子们的欢呼声中，在清晨那清脆的爆竹声中，它再一次悄然而至。

对于众多孩子来说，春节的到来是令人高兴的，他们唱歌，他们跳舞，以庆祝他们的喜庆节曰。但对于我来说，春节没有这么好，春节的到来，却不能给我带来喜悦。因为，我是穷人家的孩子。每当春节早上我一醒来，就在想：“要是我早上能意外得到父母的压岁钱，能有好多的点心吃，那该有多好呀!每当想到这里便情不自禁地跳下床，可是，无情的事实不得不让我熄灭了心中的希望之火。我不得不再一次告诫自己：别再痴心妄想了，你是穷人家的孩子，然后，我只有默默地坐在门口，望着别家孩子们欢乐的笑脸。

又是一阵清脆的爆竹声，把我从往事中拉了回来。是啊，我该起床了，尽管得不到父母的压岁钱，还有那琳琅满目的点心，可床还是得起的。

我以极快的速度梳洗完毕，当我跨出房门时，厅堂里的一幕吸引了我的目光，没错!那是我爸妈摆放出来的点心，没错的!当我想到这时，妈妈走了过来，手里还拿了一张崭新的50元人民币，带着无限关爱说：“丽，新年快乐，这是你今年的压岁钱，拿好，别丢了!”我顿时惊呆了。问道：“妈，我们家庭状况不好，拿压岁钱干啥?”妈笑了笑：“傻孩子，改革开放这么久了，我家状况也好多了，以前是爸妈对不起你，但是以后，不用再受穷了，你就放心拿着好了。”“那边还有点心，多吃点。”我一蹦一跳，跑到点心前，抓了一大把，开心地吃了个痛快。

我靠着门边，一手拿着点心，一手捏着妈妈给我的压岁钱，再望着不远处那群孩子打闹的情景，听着大人们说着“新年发财”的祝语，耳畔是那此起彼伏的爆竹声，心中不觉畅快无比!

Probably more food is consumed during the New Year celebrations than any other time of the year. Vast amounts of traditional food is prepared for family and friends, as well as those close to us who have died.

On New Years Day, the Chinese family will eat a vegetarian dish called jai. Although the various ingredients in jai are root vegetables or fibrous vegetables, many people attribute various superstitious aspects to them.

Other foods include a whole fish, to represent togetherness and abundance, and a chicken for prosperity. The chicken must be presented with a head, tail and feet to symbolize completeness. Noodles should be uncut, as they represent long life.

In south China, the favorite and most typical dishes were nian gao, sweet steamed glutinous rice(糯米)pudding and zong zi (glutinous rice wrapped up in reed(芦苇)leaves), another popular delicacy.

In the north, steamed-wheat bread (man tou) and small meat dumplings were the preferred food. The tremendous amount of food prepared at this time was meant to symbolize abundance and wealth for the household.

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.

篇一：压岁钱Lucky money

The spring festival is the loveliest in China， which is comes in February. Everyone loves it so much that prepare lots of things of the spring festival before it comes. In the spring festival holiday， people do many things， such as eat the dinner on the New Year‘s， set off fireworks, stroll the famous fair likes “Baiyunguan” fair.

老一代人会把压岁钱用红纸或者红包包起来给年轻的一代人。因为红色是开心的象征。压岁钱意味着老一代对年轻一代的爱，而且希望他们能在新的一年里拥有好的运气。这就是大多数年轻人都想要的压岁钱。

篇二：Kids, How Would You Deal With Your “Lucky Money”?

Kids would be overexcited during Spring Festival, for the simple reason that they would receive “lucky money”from their parents as well as other elderships.

According to ancient custom, the elder generations put a certain number of money in a red envelope, and give it to the children of the family, wishing that the children would grow up healthily and happily.

How to reasonably deal with those “lucky money”is a serious question for parents and children alike. As far as I am concerned, two ways below are worth to be considered. One sensible way is to save the money for higher education. With the development of economic and urbanization, the competition is becoming more and fiercer. The demand of people with high degree is increasing, which means, the threshold for a “white-collar”job is higher and higher. Therefore, accepted into a college is viewed as a necessary and an initial step for a good job. Given the increasing cost of college education and postgraduate education, saving the “lucky money”is at least an economic guarantees for higher education. The other way is investing, and by investing I do not mean buy stocks or bonds, but investing in self-improvement. For example, purchasing some books, literature, politic, philosophy, whatever you like.

As Bacon said, “reading makes a full man”, investing in books you are interested in would expand your knowledge and improve your attainment. However, not only books could attribute to self-improvement, art and sports or other skills could also do. Invest some money to learn piano, guitar, etc.; or to learn dancing, swimming, tennis…Or just to learn how to drive is a worthwhile acquirement. All in all, you could name other good ways to use“lucky money” of course, as long as it is worthwhile, and saving for education and investing in self-improvement are definitely among them.

Spring festival is the most important festival to Chinese people.

It always lasts for 15 days.Before this day,all the family members eat dinner together.Last spring festival,my parents and I had a wonderful time. We had the most delicious dinner. After dinner, my parents watched the Spring Festival Gala on CCTV together.But my cousins and I went outside and set off fireworks.
