元宵节很想去看花灯，可是回家后发现爸妈的工作都没完成。

妈妈让我先写好作业，大部分作业在学校里就完成了，剩下的我一会儿就做好了。

可是爸妈还是没做完。为了等他们，我又看了一会儿书。

好不容易，爸妈的工作都做好了。妈妈说没来得及做饭，还是出去吃吧，等晚上回来在家里煮汤圆就是了。

可是我都饿了，去哪里吃饭呢?妈妈问我。后来我们又去了味千拉面。

虽然是团圆的日子，餐馆里的人也不少，点了餐还要等。我和妈妈先去旁边的书店转转。书店里没有人，我有点累，就坐在地上看了，妈妈说只要不到处爬就可以。

吃了饭，我们就往世纪广场走，但是很遗憾，那里没有花灯。爸爸说现在去豫园太晚了，我们只好往江边开，爸爸又开始在科技馆附近的路上辨不出方向了。我真有点儿累了，躺在妈妈的腿上，迷迷糊糊地睡着了。

过了好久好久，车停了，发动机的声音也没有了，妈妈叫我，我还以为到江边了呢，结果是已经回到家了。妈妈说，到江边的时候看我睡得那么好，不忍心叫醒我，就掉头开回来了。

连正大门口的灯都没有看到，我不高兴了好一阵子……后来大家吃了汤圆，节就这么过了。

earth. Then, colorful lines burst out on the ground and made a "crackling"

sound, like setting off firecrackers. Suddenly, the earth became a colorful

world.

Suddenly, a crystal clear waterfall appeared by the lake. The waterfall was

different. It was condensed by countless small white spots. It was very

lifelike. The waterfall rolled down and emitted wisps of clear smoke, like

Penglai Fairy Island floating on the sea.

“轰”的一声，空中炸开一朵朵“蝴蝶兰”，逼真极了。过了一会儿，只见兰花变成了一盏盏红灯笼，缓缓而下，直入水面。一条条白蛇直冲天，“S”走法引人看。湖边射出一条条小船，亭亭玉立在湖面，仿佛一艘艘战舰向我们开来，庄严肃穆。顿时天空出现了“流星雨”，白花花的“流星雨”把夜晚照成了白天，离我二公里远的房屋都显而易见，它密如蛛网，好象世界末日，群星们撞向地球。接着地上又冲出一条条五颜六色的线，还发出“噼里啪啦”的响声，好似放鞭炮，霎时，大地都成了五彩缤纷的世界。

忽然，湖边出现了一条晶莹剔透的瀑布，那瀑布与众不同，它是又无数个小白点凝聚而成的，逼真无比，那瀑布滚滚而下，还冒出一缕缕清烟，有如浮在海面的蓬莱仙岛。

以往对元宵节，我们都是吃超市里买的速冻汤圆。可是，今年却截然不同，妈妈为了增加节日气氛，决定要自己做汤圆。我听了心里别提有多兴奋了。

我们先把糯米粉用开水调成皮，爸爸叫我水不要太多，多了会过稀;也不要太少，少了会粘不住。然后取一块皮在手掌中搓成圆形，再用手指在上面按一个窝，把馅放在里面包好，放馅时一定不能太贪心，否则会把皮给撑破的。包好汤圆后，终于可以下锅了。没过多久，汤圆熟了，只见一个个雪白的汤圆漂浮在水中，好像一粒粒大珍珠，看得我直流口水，迫不及待地咬了一口。啊!真好吃，那么香甜，那么可口。小小的汤圆包含了我们全家人的美好祝愿。

After so much rich food, on the 13th day you should have simple rice congee and mustard greens (choi sum) to cleanse the system.The 14th day should be for preparations to celebrate the Lantern Festival which is to be held on the 15th night.

The Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first month is a traditional festival in China. This year I had a special and lively night without curfew.

Special, because this is the first time Im not at home for the festival. In the past, on the 15th day of the first month of each year, our family was ready early to see the lanterns. Every year, I can enjoy the beautiful, novel and colorful lanterns, as well as the beautiful, charming and colorful fireworks. According to my mother, the lantern show in Zhangye is clearer than that in Linze. Therefore, with the consent of my parents, I went to my uncles house for the Lantern Festival.

My uncle cooked the dumplings early. They were round and sweet to the heart, but I only ate a few and pestered my uncle to take me to watch the lights.

When we got to the square, ah, it was a sea of people. Around it, there were lanterns of different sizes and shapes, which made people dizzy. There are red goldfish lanterns, Fuwa lanterns symbolizing the Olympic Games and peacock lanterns... This year is the year of the horse. Of course, the horse is the protagonist. There are horse spring lanterns, shepherd childrens horse lanterns, horse fighting lanterns and rows of shining lanterns. I wish people to take the lead in their body, career and life this year.

In the distance, the flashing lighthouse attracted me. It took us a lot of effort to squeeze into the front. The high lighthouse is inlaid with beautiful neon lights, red, blue, yellow, green and colorful. It stands in the middle of the square. It is very beautiful.

After a while, we came to the park again. There are many lights hanging here, especially those flashing in the willows. There are lovely doll lights, beautiful peacock lights and golden ingot lights, which are really unforgettable.

At this time, with the roaring sound, the sky of the square suddenly lit up. Oh, it turned out that fireworks began to set off. This is what I look forward to most. I saw fireworks bloom in the air like beautiful flowers, and then slowly disappear. Some crossed the sky like beautiful meteors, and some scattered flowers from the sky in the distance. It was very beautiful.

How lively Zhangye is on the fifteenth day of the first month and how charming the night scene of the Lantern Festival is!

“正月十五闹元宵”，每年春节过后的农历正月十五是我国的元宵节，又叫“灯节”和“上元节”，是中国自古以来就在民间流传的另一个已有2000多年历史的传统佳节。

元宵节起源于西汉王朝。相传汉惠帝死后飞扬跋扈的吕后篡权，任用了大量吕氏亲信，宦官当权。吕后死后，公元前179年，汉文帝在老忠臣协助下登基，博采众议，在正月十五这天，一举扫除了诸吕残余势力。因古代“夜”与“宵”同义。正月又叫“元月”，为了纪念正月十五这一天，汉文帝就将此日定为“元宵节”。从此，经隋至唐，到唐玄宗李隆基时，为显示大唐兴盛，国泰民安，逐沿用旧俗，每到“元宵节”这天，张灯结彩，欢庆狂欢，“一曲笙歌春如海，千门灯火夜似昼”，使这一节日更加兴盛。

节日期间，灯月交辉，游人如织，正如唐代诗人张说所描绘的：“花萼楼前雨露新，长安城里太平人。龙衔火树千灯焰，鸡踏莲花万岁春”。李商隐的诗曰：“月色灯光满帝城，香车宝辇溢通衢”，描绘了当时观灯时车水马龙的宏大场面。流传到宋代，在元宵之夜悬灯欢乐的规模更加盛况空前，花灯的装饰造型也更精美，灯节带给人们更多欢乐，更多光明。诗人苏东坡有诗云：“灯光家之有，笙歌处之楼”;大词人辛弃疾也曾有著名词作：“东风夜放花千树，更吹落，星如雨。宝马雕车香满路。风箫声动，玉壶光转，一夜鱼龙舞。”这些诗词描绘了当时元宵佳节满城花灯齐放，通宵达旦，歌舞笙乐的壮观场面。到了清代，据《京都风俗志》记载：清代太平年间每年元宵节都是：“通街委巷，灯光星布珠悬，皎如白昼”，“王孙贵客、士女儿童，倾城出游，谓之逛灯”，由此可见元宵节观灯的热闹场面。

到近代，这一习俗代代流传，至今仍经久不衰。老百姓家家户户都在门前和屋内悬挂彩灯、大红灯笼，全家团圆，围坐一起，观花赏灯吃元宵，象征着“团圆美满，丰收和睦”，同时这一天还标志着是春节欢乐的最后一幕，热热闹闹过完了“元宵节”，才算是真正过完了春节。

宋代诗人欧阳修诗曰：“去年元宵时，花市灯如昼。月上柳梢头，人约黄昏后。”说明在这灯好月明人团圆的喜庆佳节里，亲朋好友相约团聚，早已是民间庆春节的重要习俗。如果在团聚时捧去一把鲜花，携带上一个花篮，让美丽娇艳的鲜花送来一个吉祥幸福的欢乐好运，会给朋友相聚增添无比欢乐的心情，这时应该选用寓意团团美美、如意祥瑞的花材，如火红的火鹤花、满枝悬挂形似红爆竹的炮仗花、鲜艳的孔雀草、象征明媚春天光明的银芽柳、闪烁洁白繁星的满天星等，都会展现出一片祥和安乐的氛围，为亲朋好友送去一年吉祥幸福的祝愿。
