传统节日英语作文【实用三篇】 小学英语作文实用20篇

中秋节，又称中秋节、中秋节、八月节等。，是我们中华民族和汉字的文化圈。它在农历八月十五，我们中国人在这一天赏月吃月饼。

今天早上，早饭后，我们高兴地骑着马去奶奶家和爷爷奶奶吃团圆饭。

吃完饭，奶奶拿出我们送的月饼给我们吃，我和弟弟忍不住吃了起来。嗯，真好吃！我和哥哥就像一只贪婪的狼？吃饭，我们刚吃完月饼。阿姨还送了一盒长方形的月饼给奶奶。当我们打开它时，这盒月饼里有刀叉。妈妈说，为什么我们没有这些东西？

我们玩到下午4点，然后依依不舍的来到大妈妈家。我的祖父母住在我姑姑家，所以我们和我的祖父母一起度假。爸爸，他在细雨中开着我们的摩托车去了我们阿姨家。

到了大妈家，看到妹妹和表姐，打着伞下来了。我问他们:你们在干什么？逛街，我们四个人很开心一起买东西。我们选择了很久才完成。当时我就在想我们四个是不是有选择恐惧症。哈哈。

晚饭后，我们和爷爷奶奶一起吃月饼，看中秋节节目。可惜今天没有看到圆月，但是这个中秋节让我开心又有意义，让我感受到了和家人团聚的快乐滋味。

最后祝大家中秋节快乐！一切都很完美。

“五月五日午，赠我一支艾。故人不可见，新知万里外。丹心照夙昔，鬓发日已改。我欲从灵均，三湘隔辽海。”这首是宋朝诗人文天祥写的，写了当时发生在端午节的一件事。

说起端午节，它还有一个小故事呢！现在让我们一起来听听端午节的由来吧，“从前在春秋时期怀王有一位大臣，他的名字叫屈原。他倡导举贤授能，富国强兵，主力联齐抗秦，遭到贵族子兰等人的强烈反对，屈原遭馋去职，流放到沅，湘流域。后来秦军攻破楚国京都，屈原眼看自己的祖国被侵略，于五月五日，在写下了绝笔作《怀沙》之后，抱石投汨罗江身死，以自己的生命谱写了一曲壮丽的爱国主义乐章。”这个文章的主人公屈原是怎样的人呢？这个问题就留同学们一起讨论吧！下面就让我来讲讲我家过端午的习俗吧！

说端午节的时候吃粽子也是一种习俗，就让我给大家讲一讲我家是怎样包粽子吧！

第一步：先将粽叶放入锅内煮嫩，然后将五谷和糯米加在一起煮。

第二步：拿出已经煮好的几片粽叶搭在一起，中间在放五谷和糯米。

第三步：将既有瘦肉也有肥肉的猪肉切好，放入五谷的中间(记住是横着放哦）。

第四步：将缺口补好，用粽叶包好，并用绳绑好。

第五步：向锅里倒点水，用小火来煮，一个小时就可以了。

煮好的粽子十分香，我家包的粽子不像别人包得像三角形。我家包的粽子从上面看，像长方形；从前面看，像三角形。咬一口味道香喷喷的。

我喜欢在家里过端午节，更喜欢家里的粽子！

春节是我们的传统节日，代表着新的一年向我们走来。在我的记忆里，我们每年都是回奶奶家过年。

除夕那天吃过早饭，我和爸爸一起贴对联，贴“福”字的时候，爸爸叫我倒着贴，我好奇地问：“爸爸，好好的一个‘福’字为什么要倒着贴”?爸爸说：“因为这样福就到我们家来了呀!”原来如此，是“福到”呢!我赶紧把福字倒过来，贴好了叫爸爸看，爸爸满意地连连点头。

吃年夜饭的时候，我们会给菜起上吉祥的名字，姑妈端着一条鱼摆上桌的时候，我们会说“年年有鱼”!端来膀子的时候，我会说“聚宝盆”。不一会儿桌子上就摆满了各种美味佳肴，我们一大家人坐在桌子旁边一边吃着团圆饭，一边看着春节联欢晚会，奶奶说：“慢慢吃，年夜饭越吃得久来年越好!”屋里一片欢声笑语。

晚上的时候，我和弟弟搬来了一大箱子烟花，在姐姐的帮助下，我点燃一个“小蜜蜂”，只见“小蜜蜂”嗡的一声，随一道五颜六色的彩带飞了出去，我高兴得一蹦三尺高，弟弟也手舞足蹈。随后我又放了各种款式的烟花。到了春节倒计时的时候，爸爸会放鞭炮和大大的烟花，一声巨响，顿时天上开出了一朵朵彩色的花来，亮了半边天，美丽极了!邻居们也纷纷放鞭炮，迎接新的一年的到来。

初一我们起了个大早，见到长辈就说：“新年好，恭喜发财!”然后长辈会给我们发一个大红包，还笑着说：“祝宝贝们身体健康、学习进步!”

“爆竹声中一岁除，春风送暖入屠苏，千门万户曈曈日，总把新桃换旧符。”我们一家人团团圆圆在一起过年是多么开心的事呀!春节真是一个喜气洋洋的节日啊!

寒冬腊月，银装素裹，万物枯萎，一片荒凉;新春佳节，红红火火，张灯结彩，合家欢乐。 The cold winter lunar month, silver -wrapped, all things withered, a desolate; the New Year festival, red fire, tensor of lights, happy family.

严冬之中，新年之际，一家人围坐一团，吃着可口的饭菜，看着精彩的春晚，脸上荡漾着微微的笑，那笑脸是那样甜美，仿佛能笑出一个春天。窄小而又温馨的小屋中洋溢着欢快的笑声，陈旧而又美丽的老屋里充满着喜悦的气氛。相信此时即使狂风暴雪袭来，身处绝对零度，受尽寒冷的折磨。那热闹非凡的画面也能融化所有冰雪，温暖一切寒冷，沸腾整个冬天!

窗外是寒冷刺骨的坚冰，窗里是热热闹闹的一家人。春节就是这么神奇，最寒冷的季节中最寒冷的一天却是一年中最喜庆的一天。

吃完热气腾腾、鲜香味美、皮薄馅大的饺子，喝一杯或浓或淡的香茶，推开房门，去外面放鞭炮。各式各样的烟花出现，腾空，绽放，最后在漆黑的夜空中留下一道道美丽的残影，令人神往。那烟花能与星星媲美，能与月亮争宠，能和春花争奇斗艳。幽暗的夜空因这些烟花变得亮堂堂的，恍如白天，但它确实是黑夜，一朵朵烟花在空中盛开后马上消失，它们是美丽的，也是短暂的，我拿出照相机，按下快门，将这转瞬即逝的美定格为永恒，珍藏到永远。放完烟火，看完春晚，人们躺在床上，带着对明天的期盼，带着岁月的祝福，带着甜甜的微笑，进入美妙的梦乡……

冬日的夜是漫长的，仿佛没有终点。人们总是耐不住欣喜一次次从梦中醒来，认为“明天”来临，却发现“明天”早着到呢，于是不得不感叹夜的漫漫无际，“明天”的遥遥无期。

熬了一晚上，大年初一终于到了。还是黑灯瞎火的五更天，人们早已出了家门，组成人数或多或少的队伍去拜年，给亲人们送上最诚挚的祝福，送上最真切的爱……

春节就是这样，即使在寒冬腊月，人们也能热血沸腾，即使千里冰封，人们也会热泪盈眶。春节总是少不了温馨与感动，少不了传统与新意，少不了情，少不了爱。春节不仅是一个普通的节日，它还是一个伟大民族的象征!

Dear Harry,

How are youI’m really glad that you are interested in Chinese traditional festivals. So,I’d like to tell you something about these festivals. Spring Festival is the most important festival in my country.It is to celebrate the lunar calendar’s new year. Before the festival,we clean our homes and sweep away all the bad luck. On the evening before Spring Festival we have a big family dinner. We eat jiaozi—a kind of dumpling and other delicious food. After dinner, we will go outside to play fireworks.

In China, another important festival is Mid-autumn Day.It is on the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month.It is time for family getting together. On that night the moon is brighter and fuller than any other night. .I love it very much. Because on that day ,our families will stay outside in the open air to eat a big dinner and moon cakes. The most important thing is looking at the moon, the moon looks brighter and rounder. We call this moon the full moon.

What great festivals ! I love them . I am sure you will love them too.

Write and tell me something about your festivals.

Moon Festival The Moon Festival or Mid -autumn Festival is one of the three major traditional festivals celebrated by Chinese people. Like harvest time in other countries, the Mid-autumn Festival actually began as a thanksgiving celebration, honoring the Soil God and the Crop God. This is also a time for family reunions. Chinese people enjoy moon cakes during this feast just as they eat rice dumplings for the Dragon Boat Festival. It is quite appropriate to bring moon cakes with you in token of festival greetings when calling on people during this season.

The Mid-Autumn Day

August 15th in Chinese Lunar Calendar is the Mid-Autumn Day. It is one of the most important traditional festivals in China.

On that day people usually go back home to have family reunion. Each family will have the members get together to have a big dinner. The most popular food is moon cakes. They are round and look like the moon.

The moon is the brightest this night. People ate the delicious food while they were enjoying a beautiful full moon in their yard. At this time, some old people would like to tell many past events and tell the children a story about the rabbit. The children really believed that there was a rabbit on the moon. They wanted to go to the moon and have a look one day

中秋节是立秋以后的第一个节日,是人们庆祝丰收的日子,洽逢十五月圆人团圆,因此中秋节对于华人来讲也象征着团圆.在这个丰收与团圆的日子里,人们会与家人团聚在满月下,享用辛勤劳动的成果;当满月升起的时侯,人们会在在贡桌上摆上丰盛的水果和月饼,一方面感恩上天赐予人们丰收的果实,另一方面祈祷来年风调雨顺.就像火鸡象征西方感恩节一样,月饼象征着中国中秋节.

Dear Sir,

I saw your advertisement for "the perfect lighter" in Sunday Times last week and immediately sent off a ￡2 postal order and the completed form for the lighter.

Imagine my surprise when all I got in return was a box of matches! I could understand a mistake. I might even pardon a joke. But in this case, your advertisement is a deliberate lie since a friend of mine who also sent the coupon got the same result.

I think its a shame to promise an economical lighter when in fact you are not selling a lighter a1 all. Instead of saying it works quickly, you should admit that you are offering matches. And what about "only" ￡2: I usually pay 10 pennies for a box of matches, and they are often given away free.

I regard your advertisement as a serious deception and demand that you send me my money back immediately. Otherwise I will take active steps to make sure the Consumers Association hear about it.

Yours faithfully,

Peter Li

October 1stis the national day of our country, which is a public holiday for the whole country. It’s an important day that marks the beginning of PRC. On that day, there are plenty of celebrations holding throughout the country, from the central government to the general people. And public places, including big squares, parks are decorated in festive theme. In recent years, the national holiday means the golden week as well, which is a short holiday that all people expect to. With the improvement of living standards, people have more money and desire to travel and the golden week is a good chance for them. Besides, for those people who would not go out, it’s a good time to have a good rest as well. Therefore, the national day means a lot to the Chinese.

10月1日是我国的国庆节，这是全国的共同节日。这一天是中华人民共和国开始的标志。在那天，全国到处都有很多庆祝活动，上至中央政府到普通老百姓。公共场所，包括大的广场和公园，都装饰成节日主题。近年，国庆节同样也是所有人都期待的短假黄金周。随着生活水平的提高，人们又更多的钱和渴望去旅游，黄金周对他们来说是一个很好的机会。除此之外，对于那些不想外出的人来说同样也是休息的好时机。因此，国庆节对中国人来说意味着很多。

农历正月初一是春节，是我们最盛大，最隆重的节日。这天，我们都会走亲戚，给长辈拜年。拜年时，我们还经常说：恭喜发财。我们小孩子说了这句话，就会拿到一个红包，长辈还会再搭上一句：红包拿来!

晚上，我们还会吃汤团，意味着团团圆圆。汤团又香又糯，好吃极了。咬下一只，芝麻馅流了出来，糯火团一溜烟地滑进了我的肚子，只有芝麻馅还留在我的口中，那香甜，让我久久难以忘怀。

当然，我更喜欢放烟花。啪地一声，一团烟火直冲云霄，砰啪这团烟火散开了，像菊花一样，十分美丽。还有像梅花的，像桂花的各种各样的烟火多得数不清。

后来，我们还看了春节联欢晚会。有的节目让我们泪流满面，有的节目让我们哈哈大笑，有的让我们沉思。这些节目可真精彩呀!

春节，你让我难忘至今。啊，我爱春节!

爆竹声中一岁除，春风送暖入屠苏。人们度过冰天雪地的寒冬，祈盼着惠风和畅的春天。当新春来临之际，万象更新，草木皆醒，人们自然充满着喜悦来欢迎这场盛宴。

春节象征着阖家团圆，家家户户张灯结彩，和家人们欢聚一堂，大人们依旧忙得不亦乐乎，多人挤进一间厨房，各自准备各自的拿手好菜，简直是八仙过海——各显神通。小孩子都不再是小孩子逐渐懂事的少年秀出自己的一手好字，“玉猪如意乐辞旧，金鼠祥瑞喜迎新”各体对联和福字都展上了门窗。往街上一扫眼，全是红火一般的喜庆。

不知是谁一声招呼：“开饭啦!”才知饭菜早已上桌，随着头顶的灯光亮起，各道佳肴都被照得油光发亮，五色俱全，极其诱人。“干杯!”十几只杯碰在一起的响声，意味着互相祝福来年心想事成。

晚霞渐渐晕染整个天空，泄出璀璨的橙光。夕阳从山涧坠落，留下丝丝红纱似的余晖。天色逐渐暗淡，很快便深沉似海，空旷的夜幕夹杂着点点茫星，暮色苍茫，月明星稀。

然而地与天恰恰相反，灯火通明，人声鼎沸。走进熙熙攘攘的街市，伙伴们提着自制的纸灯笼，上面画着龙凤共舞，纯白玉兔，金鸡独立等彩画。街市上的店面比想象中的更多，更紧密。若是远观，必定繁华一片。小摊上摆放着琳琅满目的小玩意儿，玩具枪。迷你弓箭。布织布熊……当然这些都是小孩儿爱玩的。其次还有晶莹剔透的颈链手环，小如红豆的颗颗珍珠。中国结非常引人注目，鲜红欲滴，气魄大方。满下巴长胡子的老爷爷在画糖人儿，小孩见了准馋。家乡有特色的小吃：肉圆。小炒年糕。混沌和裹饼。阵阵鲜香在空中绕着小圈，像施了魔法似的飘进每个人的鼻腔里，惹得人们一定要去尝尝才好。

远处有几位少年，围成一圈放烟花，手中舞动仙女棒，灿烂的火花如此耀眼，充满了少年们纯粹无邪的眼眸。他们沿着小溪奔跑着，挥洒着手中的闪耀，千万光斑撒进小溪，仿佛星星与月亮坠入溪中，使得小溪也拥有了无限光辉。

不觉中已入深夜，随着新年即将到来，人人都仰望高空，像是在祈盼，像是在回忆留念。当新年钟声敲响，跨越了旧的一年，向它道谢。辞别。以自己崭新的一面奔向新年，改过与奋斗，属于自己的，拥有的一切美好事物都会如愿重收于囊中。

仰望束束焰火射入空旷的天空，霎时，五彩斑斓填满整个视野，被其包围。如此耀眼的灿烂都源于辉煌璀璨的一时，都已确知。定有人会不负众望，横空出世。

“五月五，是端阳，门插艾，香满堂，吃粽子，撒白糖，龙船下水，喜洋洋。”热闹的端午节又来了，它可是我最喜欢的节日。

传说端午节是为了纪念屈原。每到端午节这一天，我都会和妈妈一起包粽子。妈妈有一双巧手。不一会儿，几十个粽子就在她的手下诞生了。看着一个个穿着绿衣裳的小粽子，我的口水直流。妈妈仿佛看出了我的心思，赶紧把几十个粽子放入锅中蒸熟。不到五分钟，整个房间都飘满了粽子的香味。经过将近半个小时的等待，粽子终于出锅了。奶奶笑眯眯地从厨房捧出一盘粽子，我像小馋猫似的，围了上去，赶紧挑了一个最大的，剥开它的外衣，粽子里的糯米看起来是那么的软糯，你瞧，里面还夹着我最喜欢的鹌鹑蛋。我顾不得烫嘴，大口大口地咬了下去，又香又黏的，让人越吃越想吃。

到了中午，我们一家人兴高采烈地去看龙舟赛。仔细一数，每条龙舟上坐了12个人，随着一声枪响，比赛就开始了，锣鼓声顿时震耳欲聋，龙舟像长了一双双翅膀，飞快地向前跑了起来，周围的人都看得津津有味，一边看一边还不停地为他们加油打气。快乐的时光总是短暂的，没过多久，一场精彩的龙舟赛，就在人们的欢呼声中结束了。看着慢慢停下来的龙舟，我们依依不舍地回了家。

在一阵阵银铃般的笑声中，我们度过了一个难忘的端午节。

I was in primary school through the fifth primary school, happy time for less homework, the teacher always tells stories. The first grade when I do not love learning, but after the third grade I began to love learning, because the teacher says learning fun for us, and we often have sports activities.

I will forever remember my elementary school schoolmate, elementary schoolteacher, also will forever remember my unforgettable elementary school life.

我的小学是在五小度过的,小学的快乐时光因为作业少,老师经常讲故事.一年级的时候我不太爱学习,但三年级以后我开始喜欢学习,因为老师给我们说学习的乐趣,还有经常的体育活动.

我会永远记住我的小学同学,小学老师,也将永远记住我难忘的小学生活.

今天是一年一度的中秋节。这是一个特殊的节日，也是一个团圆的节日。按照中国传统，现在的人应该回家和家人团聚，我也不例外。

今天晚上，我迫不及待地想回家。一顿美味的晚餐后，我开始赏月。我被美丽的风景陶醉了。我开始了一次美妙的月球之旅:

当我从梦中醒来时，我发现我明白了月亮。我看到嫦娥和月兔，月兔正在做丹药。也许那就是成千上万人想要的传说中的仙丹。但那是给谁的？也许是为了天上的神。后来看到嫦娥在广寒宫跳舞。也许，这是因为他对后羿的深情，都包含在这优美的舞蹈里。看到这美丽的舞蹈，我被这美丽的舞蹈陶醉了，忍不住跳了起来。我和嫦娥快乐地跳舞，和月兔玩耍，我陶醉其中。

直到妈妈叫我们吃月饼，我才醒过来。我是多么怀念月球上的美景啊！我们一边吃着美味的月饼，一边享受着美妙的中秋晚会。

我们带着欢笑和幸福度过了这个美好的夜晚。

这是我们的传统节日——一年一度的中秋节，在这个节日里，到处都是团圆、幸福和幸福的景象。

今天是端午，农历的五月五日，又叫端五、重午。每当端午的时候，人们都赛龙舟、吃粽子、佩戴茱萸、喝雄黄酒。这是为什么呢?原来这是为了纪念屈原。 Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. On May 5th of the lunar calendar, it is also called Duan Wu and heavy noon.Whenever the Dragon Boat Festival, people are racing dragon boats, eating rice dumplings, wearing dogwood, and drinking male wine.Why is this? It turned out that this was to commemorate Qu Yuan.

相传伟大的爱国诗人屈原，由于楚怀王听信奸臣，不采用屈原的政策，导致楚国灭亡，从而在端午(农历五月初五)跳进汨罗江殉国。

屈原在群众中有很大的威信，因此。屈原刚死，百姓就跑到汨罗江边，投粽子、划龙舟。投粽子是为了让鱼虾吃饱粽子不吃屈原的遗体，划龙船是为了吓走水中的蛟龙。

今天我可在西溪湿地大饱了眼福：在西溪河道上，一条条龙船你追我赶，场面煞是壮观。最引人瞩目的是，那艘竖着蓝旗、船员身着红色衣服的龙舟。随着鼓声和锣声，船员有节奏地划起了浆，这艘龙舟越划越快，船员越来越起劲，水在船的龙头上激起了巨大的浪花，鼓手也情不自禁地划起浆来，舵手卖力地掌舵，希望能给船一个的方向，并时而站起，时而蹲下，致使船的龙头一上一下，将西溪河道里的水一吞一吐，龙船边上激起阵阵白色的浪花，仿佛水中的蛟龙在激腾潜行。

有趣地是，紧跟着这艘龙船的是一艘插着红旗的龙船，只见它拼命地在那里追赶，船员们使出了的力量，鼓手伴随着划手们的吆喝声，龙船在浪花中摇晃着穿行，周围的人在呐喊着给他们加油鼓劲，周围的一个老爷爷看到这艘龙船还是赶不上他们的对手，就给大家出主意说：端午节是要喝雄黄酒的，应该不能说加油，应该说加酒，他们才有力量的。

于是大家就喊“加酒!加酒!”我也跟着这样喊，也许是我们真的给船手们加了酒的原因，只见那艘嗖嗖往前冲的插红旗的龙船，突然之间摔出一个人来，掉进水中，溅起了一朵更大的浪花来。那船的速度立刻减慢了下来。这个时候大家才回过神来看那艘插蓝色旗帜的龙舟，只见它抓住了这千载难逢的机会。

所有的船手发一声喊，在鼓手的催阵声中，奋力地在水中“画”出了一条白色的浪痕，一霎那间，就把那艘插红色旗帜的龙舟抛在了身后，只见这时站在河道两岸的观众齐声欢呼，在这片欢腾之中，我，来不及看到它是怎样冲过终点的，可是周围那欢呼的声音，明白地告诉了我，他们是这次争夺赛的得胜者。

在这一片欢腾之中，我沉思了：我们用欢乐的形式来怀念历史，怀念几千年前那悲壮的一段历史，今天，我们不仅仅是在表达我们的哀伤，相反，我们在怀念在一段悲凉的历史中，爆发出了另一种力量。就像汶川发生了大地震一样，我们在哀伤的同时，中华民族良的一种品德——在哀伤的同时，会爆发出无穷的力量，这种力量，使我们永远战无不胜。

Dear Mary,

Thanks for your last letter. Im so glad that you have been able (at last! ) to arrange a holiday in Australia. As I fear I wont be able to meet you at the airport when you arrive, nor will I be able to be home until later in the afternoon, so here are some instructions and suggestions.

There is a bus from the airport to the city. It is much cheaper than a cab. Take the bus to the city and ask to get off at Town Hall railway station.

To get to my place in the eastern suburbs you have three options. You can either take a cab, a bus or the train. I suggest you take the train, since the airport bus will leave you right at the station. Get off at Cliff Station. From there you can either walk to my place (about ten minutes) or take a taxi. Probably you should take a taxi as you will have luggage.

When you arrive at my flat, ring the intercom for Flat 2. My friend Lillian will be at home and she will open the front door for you and let you into my flat.

Presumably you will be tired and want to sleep. But if you feel like some exercise after that long flight, you could stroll down to Cooper Park, which is only ten minutes away ? you can see it from the window.

Cheers and looking forward to seeing you.

Yours sincerely,

Annie

今天是农历八月十五，也是我国的传统节日——中秋节。这是人们一直都喻为最有人情味、最诗情画意的一个节日。有人说，每逢佳节倍思亲。时至今天，中秋的原意也已经没有多少人知道，对于新的一代来说，中秋节最令人向往的是月饼和灯笼。

今年的中秋之夜，月亮显得格外圆，也特别亮。当夜幕降临时，我和爸爸、妈妈来到了姥姥家，准备和姥姥一起欣赏那八月十五的月亮。我们全家人坐在一起，一边吃，一边说笑、聊天，家庭和睦、气氛愈发融洽。据说吃月饼象征着合家团圆，几百年来我的家乡一直有这一传统风俗。中秋夜，除了拜祭、还有就是应节的月饼和灯笼。祭拜的当然是在天上的嫦娥，也有人称她为月娘。姥姥说，小孩子不可以用手指指月亮，要不然会被割耳朵 。

我听了将信将疑，把疑惑的目光投向天空，只见一轮金黄的圆月已经高高地挂在天空中，向地上洒下皎洁的月光，像轻纱似的一般温柔。天空中云很淡，风很轻，月光很美，这构成了一幅漂亮的画。在深蓝色的夜空里，月亮显得更圆、更亮、更美了。这么美的月亮能不让人心动吗？这圆月非常调皮，一会儿钻进云姐姐的怀里，一会儿和星星谈话，一会儿唱歌跳舞……真拿它没办法。我完全被眼前的美景所陶醉。这时爸爸说：“其实月亮是不会发光的。它就像一面镜子，把太阳的光反射到地球上，所以这些光是不热的。”不久，月亮旁边出现了一丝阴影。仿佛几颗星星眨着懒散的眼睛拥抱着明月。“咦？月亮上怎有依稀的背影？”我好奇地问。

爸爸告诉我：“这黑影子是月亮上的‘海’，不过里面没有水。”啊！这皎洁的明月引起了我的遐想。一定是吴刚叔叔在奋力地砍桂树，桂花撒落一地，一定很香哦！玉兔在那蹦来蹦去，可它的主人呢？哦，也许就像姥姥说的那样，嫦娥在今天和后羿难得一聚，正互诉衷肠呢！

夜深了，我们吃着美味的月饼，大家围坐在小桌旁，享受着微风的清凉，空气中弥漫着那诱人的香甜，夹杂着我们的欢声笑语。中秋的夜晚真美呀！

[小学生作文：传统节日的中秋节

Here is a difference between science and technology.Science is a method of

answering theoretical questions; technology is a method of solving practical

problems. Science has to do with discovering the facts and relationships between

observable phenomena in nature and with establishing theories that serve to

organize these facts and relationships; technology has to do with

tools,techniques, and procedures for implementing the findings of science.

Another distinction between science and technology has to do with the

progress in each. Progress in science excludes the human factor. Scientists, who

seek to comprehend the universe and know the truth with the highest degree of

accuracy and certainty, cannot pay heed to their own or other peoples likes or

dislikes, or to popular ideas about the fitness of things. What scientists

discover may shock or anger people--as did Darwins theory of evolution. But

even an unpleasant truth is more than likely to be useful; besides, we have the

option of refusing to believe it! But hardly so with technology;we do not have

the option of refusing to hear the sonic boom produced by a supersonic

aircraft-flying overhead; we do not have the option of refusing to breathe

polluted air. Unlike science, progress in technology must be our slave and not

the reverse. The legitimate purpose of technology is to serve peopie--people in

general, not merely some people; and future generations, not merely those who

presently wish to gain advantage for themselves.

We are all familiar with the abuses of technology. Many people blame

technology itself for widespread pollution, resource depletion and even social

decay in general--so much so that the promise of technology is obscured. That

promise is a cleaner and healthier world. If wise applications of science and

technology do not lead to a better world, what else will?

在中国，有许多的传统佳节，比如：重阳节，春节，中秋节等，然而我最喜欢的传统佳节是重阳节。

九九重阳节，又叫老人节，是老人的节日。那一天，人们要举行登高，吃重阳糕等活动，而拜访老人是不可少的。

去年重阳节，我和妈妈去了敬老院探望那些孤独的老人。“咚咚咚”当我敲开102房门时，一位白发苍苍的老奶奶笑盈盈的打开了房门。“喔唷，欢迎欢迎，是你们啊，今年又来看我们啦，看，我们的小雯雯长那么高了，快进来，进来。”我走进房间，拿出一叠事先准备好的贺卡，纷发给每一位老人家，他们齐声带着浓重的上海话口音说“画的好看来，侬看这个花，画了老好看额，看上去象真的一样!老灵额。”“还可以啦，这些都是老是平时教我们画的。”“雯雯，你去年教我们下的跳棋，现在敬老院的每位爷爷奶奶都会下了，而且各个都是跳棋能手，经常在一起比赛呢!”“是吗?隔壁张奶奶都快80岁了，她也会吗?”“是啊，你可别小看她呢，虽然腿脚不方便，可脑子却很灵活。跟我们下跳棋还经常赢呢!”

“爷爷奶奶，我给你们带来了最有名的乔家栅的糕点了!”说着，我从妈妈手里接过重阳糕边给边说：“张奶奶，这是您的，您牙齿不好，给您一个豆沙馅的。”张奶奶心里乐开了花，高兴地接过我手中的重阳糕，一把塞进了嘴里。“李爷爷这是您的，您身体最棒了，牙也最好，给您一个红豆味的。”李爷爷接过重阳糕，咬了大大的一口……我一一分发给他们，他们吃着重阳糕。脸上露出了满意，幸福的笑容。

在重阳节，我给老人们带去了欢乐，自己心里也有说不出的高兴，因此我最喜欢的传统佳节就是重阳节。

A little monkey picks up a pumpkin and wants to take it home.But the pumpkin is toobig.The monkey cant take it home.

Suddenly he sees a panda riding a bike towards him. He watches the bike. "l have a good idea. I can roll the pumpkin. It likes a wheel."

So he rolls the pumpkin to his home. When his mother sees the big pumpkin, she is surprised and says, "How can you carry it home?" The little monkey answers proudly, "l cant lift it, but l can roll it." His mother smiles and says, " What a clever boy!"

冬天来了，大雪纷飞。好像给大地铺上了一层厚厚的地毯，人们张灯结彩。有的正在挂红灯笼，有的正在贴春联，还有的正穿着新衣裳在商场购物呢!看到到处都洋溢着喜气洋洋的气氛，看来是要过春节呢!

你知道春节的来历吗?让我来告诉你吧!春节有一个美丽的传说，在很久以前，有一个叫年的神兽会在一年的最后一天出来捣乱，但人们发现年怕火光，红色和响声，所以每当这时，人们总会挂灯笼、放鞭炮，穿上了红衣服，年被赶走了，所以人们为了纪念那一天，就把那天定为春节。

春节有很多精彩的习俗活动，比如：“贴春联、吃团圆饭、放鞭炮、拜年……我最新换的就是放鞭炮呢。春节的早上，我早早起床找来蚊香和冲天炮，把蚊香点着后一溜烟跑到了菜地里。我想：还是插着再放吧。可别一下把我小命炸没了!于是把冲天炮插进了一颗石头缝里，心里好像揣了一只小兔子，砰砰直跳，我一只脚在前，一只脚在后，成“弓”字形。拿着蚊香的那只手缓缓的向冲天炮靠近，仿佛正要和它亲密接触呢!越来越近，越来越近，突然，引火线被点燃了，我扭过头，后脚用力向后一蹬，火箭一样的速度奔到了一块大石头后面，蹲在地上，紧紧堵住耳朵，就在我刚刚准备好时，“砰”的一声响，冲天炮飞上天空就像一架小型火箭。放完鞭炮，似乎没有那么害怕了!原来放鞭炮一点儿也不可怕，但是，下次还是让贝贝姐姐带我一起放吧!

其次，我还喜欢去拜年。到了正月初一的早上，给太太拜年了。我敲门太太刚一打开门，我就双手抱拳，“扑通”一声跪在了地上，大声说道：“恭喜发财，红包拿来!”只见太太双手背在背后，像变戏法似的从手里变出一个红包，我连忙说了声谢谢，就跑回了家。打开红包一数“哈哈”有三百元呢!又可以买我想看的书呢!我高兴地说道，一边说还一边把钱塞进了我的小猫仔存钱罐里。

中国有很多传统节日，但我最爱的是这热热闹闹的春节!

时光如同白驹过隙，眨眼间，一年又过去，新年不知不觉到了，家里也慢慢变得忙碌起来。

清晨噼里啪啦的鞭炮声仿佛是欢乐的闹钟，催促我起床迎接崭新的一年。在我看来，新年有“两乐”，这“第一乐”便是吃美食啦！到了吃完饭的时间，之间桌子上摆满了香喷喷的饭菜，那冒着热气的烤鸭、那爽脆可口的春卷、那肥而不腻的红烧肉……种类繁多、应有尽有，我不管三七二十一，拿起筷子就要吃，“小馋猫，先洗手哦！”爸爸慈祥地看着我，笑着提醒我说。接着，我便大快朵颐，这顿美味，简直可以让我回味好几天呢。“第二乐”是放烟花，我想到了除夕要放烟花，于是拉着爸爸，想叫他现在就给我放这漂亮的烟花，爸爸点了点头说：“小傻蛋，就知道你最换烟花，这不，爸爸已经准备好啦！”除夕夜的天空化身成了“画布”，各色烟花开始“大显身手”啦！瞧那五光十色的“冲天飞剑”多神气，飞一般地速度窜上天空，随着“嘭”的一声，天空中绽开一朵大花、美丽无比……我手里拿着的是“灰太狼”，给爸爸点燃了，放在地上，呵呵，灰太狼喷火了，还是很好看的。又点燃了一根长棒子的烟花，飞出一颗颗小火花，“啪”地一声就消失了。我还想接着放，爸爸说，春晚快开始了，我们看了一会，我再给你放，不急啊，今天我们可是要守夜的呢！

春晚的节目也是精彩之极，很快就在我们的欢声笑语中结束，伴随着《难忘今宵》的音乐，爸爸又搬出了一种超大的礼花，点燃了它，瞬间，“嘭”在高空形成了灿烂的花，或者说是无数的星星，可是这星星却是立马熄灭，但是又很快亮起，前仆后继，好看极了。

难忘的除夕，我将年年等待这快乐。
