万圣节前夜是在10月31日庆祝的一个节日，根据传统，万圣节前夜的庆祝活动从太阳落山开始。在很久以前，人们相信在万圣节前夜女巫会聚集在一起，鬼魂在四处游荡。现在，大多数人们不再相信有鬼魂和女巫的存在了，但是他们仍然把这些作为万圣节前夜的一部分。

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.

黑色和橙色仍然是万圣节前夜的一部分，黑色是夜晚的象征，而橙色代表着南瓜。南瓜灯是用雕刻成脸型，中间挖空，再插上蜡烛的南瓜做成的，带来一个毛骨悚然的灼热面孔。

Dressing up in costumes is one of the most popular Halloween customs, especially among children. According to tradition, people would dress up in costumes (wear special clothing, masks or disguises) to frighten the spirits away.

盛装是最受欢迎的万圣节风俗之一，尤其是受孩子们的欢迎。按照传统习俗，人们会盛装(穿戴一些特殊的服饰，面具或者装饰)来吓跑鬼魂。

Popular Halloween costumes include vampires (creatures that drink blood), ghosts (spirits of the dead) and werewolves (people that turn into wolves when the moon is full).

流行的万圣节服装包括vampires(吸血鬼)，ghosts(死者的灵魂)和werewolves(每当月圆时就变成狼形的人)。

欺骗或攻击是现代万圣节的风俗。孩子们穿着特殊的衣服走街串巷，讨取糖果和玩具之类的赏赐。如果他们得不到任何的赏赐，就可能会对屋主大搞恶作剧或者胡闹了。

The tradition of the Jack o Lantern comes from a folktale about a man named Jack who tricked the devil and had to wander the Earth with a lantern. The Jack o Lantern is made by placing a candle inside a hollowed-out pumpkin, which is carved to look like a face.

南瓜灯的传统来自于一个民间传说。一个名叫Jack的人戏弄了恶魔，之后就不得不提着一盏灯在地球上流浪。南瓜灯是用雕刻成脸型，中间挖空，再插上蜡烛的南瓜做成的。

正月里来正月正，元宵节里闹花灯。”这是民间的俗语。确实是这样，我昨天亲眼目睹了元宵节的热闹场面。进了一个繁华的街道，一个直入云霄的门匾上面写着清秀的三个大字：大观园。在白云的衬托下，显得像颐和园那样端庄。

一进门，两旁的花灯数不胜数，伴随着两旁的小溪、伴随着让心脏咚咚跳的大鼓声，我们找到了打鼓的地方，我一看原来是踩高跷的演员在表演，我最喜欢看踩高跷了，于是我迫不及待的奔向了高跷队，我看着四周全都是满满的人，便跳到石狮雕塑上去了，在雕塑上看得清清楚楚。那些演员们在演愚公移山的神话，真是活灵活现，那大山如同水桶一般，愚公头上戴着青中山帽，身上穿着黄佛教的服装，穿着绸缎裤，简直是一个老和尚。他那亲昵的微笑、和笑脸，给人一种亲切感。

武术格外热闹，那舞长矛的小选手，还有点像三国时的张飞呢。我们在这条充满古韵的街道，一直游玩到昙花都开了呢!

元宵节是中国最大的节日之一。在元宵节到来的几天前，人们就开始做灯笼，有的被做成动物，有的被做成蔬菜，有的被做成水果，各种样式都有。做灯笼时，人们通常在上面写上谜语。在元宵节前夜，所有的灯笼都被挂起来。

在元宵节这天，人们都出来看灯笼和猜灯谜，也许你还能看见一些精彩的民间表演龙舞和秧歌。每件事都很有趣，每个人都很高兴，我们的生活丰富多彩。

关于元宵节的来历,民间有几种有趣的传说：

传说一：传说在很久以前,有一只神鸟困为迷路而降落人间,却意外的被不知情的猎人给射死了.天帝知道 后十分震怒,就下令让天兵于正月十五日到人间放火,把人类通通烧死. 天帝的女儿心地善良,不忍心看百姓无辜受难,就冒着生命的危险,把这 个消息告诉了人们.众人听说了这个消息,有如头上响了一个焦雷.吓得 不知如何是好.过了好久好久,才有个老人家想出个法子,他说：“在正 月十四、十五、十六日这三天,每户人家都在家里挂起红灯笼、点爆竹、 放烟火.这样一来,天帝就会以为人们都被烧死了”.大家听了都点头称 是,便分头准备去了.到了正月十五这天晚上,天兵往下一看,发觉人间 一片红光,以为是大火燃烧的火焰,就禀告天帝不用下凡放火了.人们就 这样保住了生命及财产.为了纪念这次的成功,从此每到正月十五,家家 户户都悬挂灯笼,放烟火来纪念这个日子.

传说二：则和吃元宵的习俗有关：相传汉武帝有个宠臣名叫东方朔,他的个性既善良又风趣.如果宫 里有谁得罪了汉武帝,总要靠东方朔来讲情.有一天冬天,下了几天大雪 ,汉武帝觉得有点无聊,东方朔就到御花园去给武帝折梅花.刚进园门, 就发现有个宫女泪流满面的准备投井.东方朔慌忙上前搭救,并问明她要 自杀的原因.原来,这个宫女名叫元宵,家里还有双亲及一个妹妹.自从 她进宫以后,就再没和家人见面.每年到了腊尽春来的时节,就比平常更 加的思念家人.她想,既然不能在双亲跟前尽孝,还不如一死了之,于是 才来投井.东方朔听了她的遭遇,非常的同情她,就向她保证,一定设法 让她和家人团聚.这一天,东方朔出宫后,便在长安街上摆了一个占卜摊 .不少人都争着向他占卜求卦.不料,每个人所占所求,都是“正月十六 火焚身“的签语.一时之间,长安里起了个大恐慌.人们纷纷求问解灾的 办法.东方朔就说：“正月十三日傍晚,火神君会派一位‘赤衣神女下‘凡查访.她就是奉旨烧长安的使者,你们若看到一个骑粉色银驴的红衣姑娘,马上跪地哀求.那姑娘便说：“我是领旨来烧长安的.玉帝还要站在 南天门上观看.既承父老求情,我把抄录的偈语给你们,可让当今天子想想办法.”说完,便扔下一张红帖,扬长而去.老百姓拿起红帖,赶紧送 到皇宫去禀报皇上.汉武帝接过来一看,只见上面写着：“长安在劫,火焚帝阙,十六天火,焰红宵夜”.汉武帝一看大惊,连忙请来了足智多谋 的东方朔.东方朔假意的想了一想,就说：”听说火神君最爱吃汤圆,宫 中的元宵不是经常给你做汤圆吗?十五晚上可让元宵做汤圆.万岁焚香上 供,传令京都家家都做汤圆,一齐敬奉火神君.再传谕臣民一起在十六晚 上挂灯,满城点鞭炮、放烟火,好像满城大火,这样就可以瞒过玉帝了. 此外,通知城外百姓,十六晚上进城观灯,杂在人群中消灾解难」.武帝 听后,十分高兴,就传旨照东方朔的办法去做.到了正月十六日长安城里张 灯结彩,游人熙来攘往,热闹非常.元宵的父母也带着妹妹进城观灯.当他们看到写有“元宵”字样的大宫灯时,惊喜的高喊：“元宵!元宵!”元宵听到喊声,终于和双亲、妹妹团聚了.如此热闹了一夜,长安城果然 平安无事.汉武帝大喜,便下令以后每到正月十五都做汤圆供火神君,正 月十六照样全城挂灯放烟火.因为元宵做的汤圆最好,人们就把汤圆叫元宵,这天叫做元宵节.

传说三：汉高祖刘邦死后,吕后之子刘盈登基为汉惠帝.惠帝生性懦弱,优柔寡断,大权渐渐落再吕后手中.汉惠帝病死后吕后独揽朝政把刘氏天下变成了吕氏天下,朝中老臣,刘氏宗室深感愤慨,但都惧怕吕后残暴而敢怒不敢言.

吕后病死后,诸吕惶惶不安害怕遭到伤害和排挤.于是,在上将军吕禄家中秘密集合,共谋作乱之事,以便彻底夺取刘氏江山.

此事传至刘氏宗室齐王刘囊耳中,刘囊为保刘氏江山,决定起兵讨伐诸吕随后与开国老臣周勃,陈平取得联系,设计解除了吕禄,"诸吕之乱"终于被彻底平定.

平乱之后,众臣拥立刘邦的第二个儿子刘恒登基,称汉文帝.文帝深感太平盛世来之不易,便把平息"诸吕之乱"的正月十五,定为与民同乐日,京城里家家张灯结彩,以示庆祝.从此,正月十五便成了一个普天同庆的民间节日--"闹元宵".

农历正月十五夜,是我国民间传统的元宵节,又称上元节,灯节.正月十五闹元宵,将从除夕开始延续的庆祝活动推向又一个高潮.元宵之夜,大街小巷张灯结彩,人们赏灯,猜灯谜,吃元宵,成为世代相沿的习俗.

元宵节赏灯的习俗始于汉朝.隋唐时发展成盛大的灯市.到宋元时期,京都灯市常常绵延数十里.灯会的时间,汉朝只限于正月十五一夜,唐玄宗延长到三夜,到明朝规定从正月初八一直持续到正月十七.唐朝灯会中出现了杂耍技艺,宋代开始有灯谜.明朝有增加了戏曲表演.灯市所用的彩灯,也演绎出 “橘灯 ”、 “绢灯 ”、 “五彩羊皮灯 ”、 “无骨麦秸灯”、“走马灯”、“孔明灯”等等.始于南宋的灯谜,生动活泼,饶有风趣.经过历代发展创造,至今仍在使用的谜格有粉底格、秋千格、卷帘格、白头格、徐妃格、求凤格等一百余种,大多有限定的格式和奇巧的要求,巧立名目,妙意横生.

元宵节吃元宵的习俗始于宋朝.意在祝福全家团圆和睦,在新的一年中康乐幸福.元宵分实心和带馅两种.有香辣甜酸咸五味.可以煮、炒、油炸或蒸制.桂花酒酿元宵、以肉馅、豆沙、芝麻、桂花、果仁制成的五味元宵以及用葱、芥、蒜、韭、姜制成的象征勤劳、长久、向上的五辛元宵都各有特色.
