每年农历八月十五日,是传统的中秋佳节,这是一年秋季的中期,所以被称为“中秋节”,又称为“团圆节”。

有关中秋,有很多的传说……

在北宋京师,八月十五夜,满城人家,不论穷富、大小,都要穿上成人的衣服,烧香拜月,说出心愿,乞求月亮神的保佑。这些事情延续到现在,很多地方就形成了在中秋夜之时烧斗香、放天灯、舞火龙等特殊风俗。

说起嫦娥,因为她的美貌,惹人生慕,所以在古时候,很多少女会在中秋相继拜月,祈祷自己“貌似嫦娥,面如皎月”。据说嫦娥善良地用自己的神力点缀过可爱而真诚的姑娘们!

南宋时期,民间在中秋节以月饼相赠,以取团圆之意。而切月饼却是件讲究之事:全家人应该先在月下祈福,而后一家之主要先预算每份月饼的大小再以虔诚之心准确切开月饼,大家共食,喻为团团圆圆,相依相扶!

很多传说至今已成为大家心中根深蒂固的传统习俗,虽然各地用不同的方式来表达自己的情怀,但无不寄托着人们对生活无限的热爱和对美好生活的向往。

明月,本是中秋一大美景,可惜今年的细雨冲淡了月光,有些遗憾,那种一边坐在院子里赏月一边享受着月饼的晚上的向往也随之化为泡影,好是惋惜,不由地念叨:今年八月十五夜,坐在门前盼皎月,边品美味边赏月,意境极佳却难至,晚风习习凉心窝,本念望月不归宿,哪知老天将月藏。唉……中秋夜,稍显得有些黯淡,却是另一种深深的意境!

Brother that he would starve to death because he could not prove the money was his own, someone else will be suspected, even banks will not allow him to save money.

Brother believes that he will very well, so they brothers will check for one million pounds lent the poor, and abroad spent thirty days.

I did not expect at this time, people who suddenly rich riches rare, hard to actually draw him from the free food, buy clothes, to free accommodation, one by one like a beggar, like to please him, and continue to improve his social position, until the outdoor addition to the king on top of Duke!

Not only that, he got a good wife and thirty thousand pounds of bank interest.Since then lived very, very happy life.

See here, I am so envious of the "lucky" the hero, but I want to: The reason why people please him, not because it was too much focus on money yet?

Worship of money is shameful, something for nothing we should not!

Money is not everything in the world there are many more important things than money.

Article on the "money is everything" "Money is omnipotent," the idea for a satire and expose the ugly face of capitalist society and the rule of darkness.

参考译文:

一对兄弟收到了一封信,给了他一百万英镑

原来兄弟打赌,赌如果一个贫穷、诚实的人从天空坠落收到一百万英镑,他会有什么结果?

哥哥,他会饿死,因为他无法证明这些钱是他自己的,别人会怀疑,甚至银行不会允许他省钱。

哥哥认为他会很好,所以他们兄弟将一百万英镑的支票借给穷人,和国外花了三十天。

我没有想到在这个时候,突然间丰富的财富的人罕见,很难真正吸引他从免费食物,买衣服,到免费住宿,一个个像乞丐一样,喜欢取悦他,并不断提高他的社会地位,直到室外除了国王公爵之上!

不仅如此,他有一个好妻子和三万英镑的银行利息。自那以后生活非常幸福的生活。

看到这儿,我很羡慕“幸运”的主人公,但我想:为什么人们请他,不是因为它太注重钱了吗?

敬拜的钱是可耻的,不劳而获我们不应该!

钱不是万能的世界上有许多比金钱更重要的东西。

篇20:英语介绍樱花

全文共 3231 字

+ 加入清单

Sakura is the Japanese name for ornamental cherry trees, Prunus serrulata, and their blossoms. Cherry fruit (known as sakuranbo) come from a different species of tree.

Sakura, a well-known and ubiquitous symbol of Japan, are represented on all manner of consumer goods, including kimono, stationery, and dishware. Cherry blossoms are an enduring metaphor for the ephemeral nature of life, and as such are frequently depicted in art. There is at least one popular folk song, originally meant for the shakuhachi (bamboo flute), titled "Sakura", as well as a number of pop songs. "Sakura" is also a common Japanese female name.

Sakura is indigenous to the Himalayas and east Asia. Some trees can be found in China and Korea but the largest number and variety of sakura, more than 305 species, can be seen in Japan. Many of them were artificially hybridized or grafted by the Japanese many centuries ago.

"On the other hand, in China, cherry blossom is the symbol of feminine dominance, female beauty and sexuality. Additionally, the cherry blossom is the Chinese symbol of feminine principle and it also symbolizes love in the language of herbs. Interestingly, cherry blossom is the flower of the April in China, whereas in Japan, it is wisteria." Spring flowers of Japan

Japans most beloved variety is the Somei Yoshino. Its flowers are nearly pure white, tinged with the palest pink, especially near the stem. The flowers bloom, and usually fall within a week, before the leaves come out. Therefore, the trees look nearly white from top to bottom. The variety takes its name from the village of Somei (now part of Toshima in Tokyo). It was developed in the mid- to late-19th century at the end of the Edo period and the beginning of the Meiji period. The Somei Yoshino is so widely associated with cherry blossoms that jidaigeki and other works of fiction often depict the variety in the Edo period or earlier; such depictions are anachronisms.

Other categories include yamazakura, yaezakura, and shidarezakura. The yaezakura have large flowers, thick with rich pink petals. The shidarezakura, or weeping cherry, has branches that fall like those of a weeping willow, bearing cascades of pink flowers.

Annually, the Japanese Meteorological Agency and general public track the sakura zensen, or Cherry-Blossom Front. Nightly forecasts follow the weather segment of news programs. The blossoming begins in Okinawa in January, and typically reaches Kyoto and Tokyo at the end of March or the beginning of April. Then it proceeds north, arriving in Hokkaidō a few weeks later. Japanese pay close attention to these forecasts. They will go to parks, shrines and temples with family and friends and hold a "flower viewing party" known as hanami. Hanami festivals celebrate the beauty of sakura, and for many, it is a chance to relax and enjoy the beautiful view. Hanami custom in Japan dates back to many centuries ago. It is witten in Nihon Shoki that the Hanami festival were already held in the 3rd century.

Most Japanese schools and public buildings have sakura trees outside of them. Since the fiscal and school year both begin in April, in many parts of Honshū, the first day of work or school will coincide with the cherry blossom season.
