传统节日英语作文【实用三篇】 小学英语作文热门20篇

“粽子香，香厨房。艾叶香，香满堂。”大家一定猜到了是什么节日了吧?对了，就是端午节。

每年过端午节时，全国各地都会进行精彩纷呈的龙舟比赛，那是为了纪念爱国大诗人“屈原”。而在我们家，奶奶就会去买糯米、粽叶和艾叶。奶奶包的粽子有三角形的，有长方形的，形状各异，大小不一。

咬上一口香甜软糯，令人回味无穷。而艾叶嘛?是用来洗艾叶澡的。晚上，妈妈就开始摆弄艾叶了，只见她先把艾叶装在盆里，清洗干净，接着放到铝锅里，然后打开煤气灶，过了一会儿，水沸腾了，一阵艾香扑鼻而来，把艾叶煮好，最后放出来晾凉。洗完艾叶澡后，我觉得神清气爽。据说，用艾叶洗澡能去除蚊虫，消除疾病。真是“家有三千艾，郎中不用来”。

端午节不仅是传统节日，也是传统文化。我们要把这些文化传承下去。

这次元宵节，令我印象深刻。

早上，我一起来就闻到了一阵清香，我赶忙往餐桌跑去。餐桌上摆了好几碗汤圆，里面还撒了一些桂花，我咬了一口，嗯!真好吃!

最令我印象深刻的事情要数包汤圆了。晚上我提议也吃汤圆，正好可以学学怎么包汤圆。于是，我和妈妈开始学包汤圆。首先要把面粉倒在一个大盆子里，接着放入适量的水，然后搅拌均匀。之后把它分成一小块一小块的，再把一小块面团搓成半圆形，再戳个洞(不要戳到底)。接着将猪油芝麻馅放进洞内，再封口，最后再把它搓成球形。汤圆就包好了。说着容易做着难，我们包的时候，还是有很多困难。首先是我往盆子里加水时，加得太多了，造成面粉太湿了，只好加点面粉重新搅拌。接着，我的手又被面团粘住了，我好不容易才弄下来。还有，我妈分的一块一块的面团分得太小了，馅放不进去，我妈只好把面团重新分。

尽管我们包的汤圆煮熟后好多都露馅了，但我觉得我们已经很努力了，包不好也没关系。

希望下次元宵节包的汤圆不要露馅。

前几天，我和爸爸、妈妈去超市，看到超市里摆上了各种各样的绿豆糕，我很好奇地问爸爸、妈妈超市怎么突然卖起了绿豆糕呢，妈妈说：“端午节要到了，我们不仅要吃绿豆糕，还要吃”五黄”呢!”“五黄”?什么是“五黄”? A few days ago, my father and mother went to the supermarket and saw a variety of mung bean cakes in the supermarket.Why did you suddenly sell mung bean cake? Mom said, "The Dragon Boat Festival is coming, we not only eat mung bean cake, but also" five yellow "!" "Five yellow"? What is "five yellow"?

回到家上网查了后，不仅知道了“五黄”指的是：黄鱼、黄瓜、咸鸭蛋黄、黄豆瓣包的粽子和雄黄酒。还知道了我们这端午节为什么要包粽子了。

端午节的下午，我们一家来到了外婆家过节。刚进门就闻到了一股香喷喷的味道，姨妈说这是锅里煮的粽子飘出的香味。一会，姨妈端上来热气腾腾的粽子让我们品尝，我把粽叶一层一层地剥下，露出了白嫩嫩的粽子，我咬了一口，哇!真香。

吃着吃着，我忽然想起了端午节的来历，想着冤死在汨罗江中的屈原，真希望我能把家里的粽子也抛进汨罗江，让鱼儿不要伤害他，我仿佛看到了在汨罗江里划着船的人们……

吃晚饭的时候到了，大家看着餐桌上的菜，竟然不约而同地说到了今天应该吃“五黄”，看看外婆准备的晚饭，真不错，在我们的餐桌上出现了“四黄”，唯独缺雄黄酒，外公说，那是因为我们不会做雄黄酒，所以大家也都不爱喝。

我们一家人边吃边聊，倾听着大人们说他们小时候过端午节的时候的趣事，不仅要自己包粽子，而且还要编装鸭蛋网呢，据说鸭蛋网是用五颜六色的彩线编的，编好后装上煮好的鸭蛋，可漂亮了。

看着大家说的高兴，外婆竟带着大家忆苦思甜了，说姨妈和妈妈小时候，因家里条件不好，过节也没什么好菜吃，今天这样的情景想都没想过。是啊，我们今天真的是太幸福了，我心里默默地想：“这么幸福的生活我一定要珍惜，也一定要好好学习。”

一阵笑声打断了我的思路，看着家里每个人开心的表情，我打心里觉得过端午节真好，真希望每天都过端午节!

我喜欢端午节，因为端午节的时候可以吃到包子、粽子等许多好吃的；我也喜欢清明节，清明节的时候我们可以去扫墓，悼念已故的亲人；我还喜欢七夕节，因为七夕有着美丽的传说……但是要问我最喜欢的传统节日是什么？那当然是春节了！

今年春节，我是回老家跟爷爷奶奶一起过的。吃过团圆饭，全家人就到院子里放鞭炮了，对于我们小孩子来说，更是充满了期待、兴奋，还有一丝丝胆怯。

当叔叔准备燃放时，我和姐姐连忙堵住耳朵，只听“砰“——砰砰——”的巨响，哇，好美呀！礼花喷射出了一团团火花射向天空，火花向四面绽开，五颜六色，有的洒向地面，有的升上天空，有的刚好炸开就像仙女散花一般，把村子照得亮如白昼一样，真是漂亮极了！观看着美丽的礼花，我突然想起一个问题：为什么每年过年都要燃放鞭炮呢？我急忙跑去问爸爸，爸爸告诉我才明白，原来这也有一个传说。

据说，古代有一种怪物，叫“年”，他只在每年过年的时候出现，村子里的人很害怕“年”，所以每次过年人人都躲在家里不敢出来。又一年，“年”又到人间来作恶，以为老人站在“年”的面前——“呀！”我一下子打断爸爸的话，说：“爸爸，那位老人不怕吗？”爸爸说：“别急，别急，你听我慢慢说。”原来老人拿起一根燃烧着的火棍放在地上，可是熊熊燃烧的火还是没有赶走“年”。这时，一个小孩子拿着一根竹杆扔在火里，竹杆被火一烧立刻发出噼噼啪啪的响声，“年”听见这响声吓得逃跑了。村里的人们都很开心，但是又担心万一下一年它又来到人间怎么吗办呢？于是人们每次春节都要放鞭炮。

听着听着，我有些入迷了，忽然“砰”的一声，我吓得大叫——“年”来啦！这时我发现哥哥在我后面笑，原来是哥哥捣鬼在我后面放鞭炮。我追着哥哥喊道：“站住！别跑！”哥哥却做着鬼脸说：“来抓我呀！”于是，我和哥哥追逐打闹，院子里充斥着我们的欢笑声，借着烟花的微光，我看到大人们脸上都洋溢着一脸的幸福和甜蜜，这就是家的味道吧！

就这样，春节在清脆响亮的鞭炮声中，在漂亮的礼花和快乐的欢笑声中过完了，春节带给我许多乐趣，也让我了解了中国的传统文化，春节真有意思！

美好的一天

June 13thFriday

It is a fine day today. There are some clouds in the sky， but the sun is

shining. Mr Jones is with his family. They are walking on the bridge. There are

some boats on the river. Mr Jones and his wife are looking at them. Sally is

looking at a big ship. The ship is going under the bridge. Tim is looking at an

aeroplane. The aeroplane is flying over the river.

今天，天气晴朗，空中有少许云朵，天阳在照耀着。琼斯先生和他的家人在一起。她们在桥上走着，河面上有几艘小船，琼斯先生和他的夫人正看着它们，莎莉正看着一艘大船。它正从桥下经过。蒂姆在看着一架飞机，这架飞机正从河上空飞过。

“久慕名山，提酒携琴，何妨登临迭胜。相濡以沫泥涂曳尾，不若相忘江湖。”多豪迈的诗句啊!这就是神凤文化园的大门两旁那一副对联了!大门也毫不逊色，它依山而建，雄伟壮观，令人望而止步。

我悠闲自在的往上而爬，穿过了六句阵，忽然被不远处的亭阁吸引了，走进一看，原来是凤凰台啊!“凤凰台”三个字苍劲有力的刻在了亭阁上，据说这是景观台。我半信半疑的走进这造型别致的凤凰上，心想：“凤凰有什么美景啊!我早就看了千遍万遍了!”带着几分不情愿瞄了瞄。哇!太美了!以前我没有仔细用眼睛欣赏过，今日一见，果真名不虚传啊!凤凰绝美景色尽收眼底，那一湾碧玉般的沱江穿城而过，江面上络绎不绝的江蓬船在虹桥下穿梭，虹桥上的古香古色的窗棂上挂着一个又一个的大红灯笼，似乎过年的喜庆还没有消除。这大自然的杰作可真美啊!看见此景，我灵感油然而生，我对着这幅山水画，大声念到“会当凌绝顶，一览凤凰神韵啊!”

“哎呦!哎呦……好不容易爬上来了!”我无奈的说：“这儿应该就是凤缘亭了!”只见两颗梧桐紧紧相连。“凤兮凤兮归故乡，凰兮凰兮从我栖。”我默默地念了几遍，看了注示牌后我才恍然大悟，原来是凤求凰啊!怪不得用红线捆住呢!据说和好朋友一起走过凤缘亭会使友谊地久天长哦!于是我便和龙腾，杨植翔带着那份纯真的友谊走过了凤缘亭……摇摇晃晃的走过了引凤桥，来到了九九神阶。路旁一块字牌写到：“百鸟朝凤，九天之上，，每攀登一级，便是一次洗礼，心灵得到升华。”我若有所思点了点头。

当我气喘吁吁的爬上神凤殿时，就被那丑陋的古凤神祗给吓了个半死，它怎么能在神凤殿的最上面呢!原来，在很久很久以前，鸟中之王凤凰不忍心看见自己的伙伴们一只只冻死，于是便拔下自己一根又一根的羽毛送给每一只鸟，而自己却在刺骨的寒风中冻死了。顿时，这集虎座，凤身，鹿角的凤凰变得美丽起来，伟大起来。朝拜它的十八神竖立在两旁，显得庄严神圣。

后来我们又去了醴泉台，五德门，放生台，乘风栈道。这真是一次又趣的参观，可真让我一饱眼福啊!

我最喜欢的传统节日是中秋节。

中秋节的下午，我放学时，回到妈妈店里，踮起脚尖，轻轻地来到她身边，大叫：“我回来了！”把妈妈和秋黄姐姐吓个一跳，然后假装开开心心地出去。她们还没反应过来，都目瞪口呆站在那。之后我要开始偷月饼了！我放下书包，开始观察她们的一举一动。趁她们没注意，呲溜一声偷了三个我最喜欢的月饼——豆沙馅的。我拿了一个袋子，把它装到袋子里，看着就想流口水。不过，到晚上才能吃，因为只有晚上，才有圆圆的月亮。一分钟、十分钟、一小时……终于到了晚上，我拿着月饼，坐在园子里一边看一边吃。

我太喜欢中秋节了，不过我的秘密也泄漏了！

传统节日英语作文一：Mid-Autumn Festival

The August Moon Festival or Mid-Autumn Festival (Chinese characters above) is one of the traditional Chinese holidays. It is held on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month. Chinese legends say that the moon is at its brightest and roundest on this day. Based on the Gregorian calendar, this years August Moon Festival will be held on September 19.

The August Moon Festival is often called the Womens Festival. The moon (Chinese character on right) symbolizes elegance and beauty. While Westerners worship the sun (yang or male) for its power, people in the Far East admire the moon. The moon is the yin or female principle and it is a trusted friend. Chinese parents often name their daughters after the moon, in hope that they will be as lovely as the moon.

传统节日英语作文二：Our own national culture

Nowadays, some western holidays like Christmas Eve and Valentine’s Day have become so popular with Chinese people that they have been a part of some people’s life. On the contrary, some traditional Chinese festivals gradually are ignored by more and more people, especially young people. However, to our delight, some social groups have appealed to common people for more attention to our own national culture.

Although a few people once advocated that traditional festivals like the Spring Festival should be discarded because they have become obstacles to social progress. It can not be accepted and supported by the majority of Chinese people in reality. Indeed, the old way of spending festivals produces several disadvantages such as money wasting and transportation overloading. But we cannot disregard its other side: traditional festivals play an active role in our life. Traditional festivals not only bring joy but also bring the family together, which is so priceless in modern society.

What we should do is to preserve the positive things and make them flourish in the modern world. As for the negative aspects of it, we should not hesitate to abandon them and prevent them from affecting and troubling us and the next generation.

传统节日英语作文五：Double Ninth Festival

The 9th day of the 9th lunar month is the traditional Chongyang Festival, or Double Ninth Festival. It usually falls in October in the Gregorian calendar. In an ancient and mysterious book Yi Jing, or The Book of Changes, number 6 was thought to be of Yin character, meaning feminine or negative, while number 9 was thought to be Yang, meaning masculine or positive. So the number nine in both month and day create the Double Ninth Festival, or Chongyang Festival. Chong in Chinese means double. Also, as double ninth was pronounced the same as the word to signify forever, both are Jiu Jiu, the Chinese ancestors considered it an auspicious day worth celebration. That‘s why ancient Chinese began to celebrate this festival long time ago.

The custom of ascending a height to avoid epidemics was passed down from long time ago. Therefore, the Double Ninth Festival is also called Height Ascending Festival. The height people will reach is usually a mountain or a tower. Ancient literary figures have left many poems depicting the activity. Even today, people still swarm to famous or little known mountains on this day.

On this day, people will eat Double Ninth Gao (or Cake). In Chinese, gao (cake) has the same pronunciation with gao (height). People do so just to hope progress in everything they are engaged in. There is no fixed ways for the Double Ninth Cake, but super cakes will have as many as nine layers, looking like a tower.

The Double Ninth Festival is also a time when chrysanthemum blooms. China boasts diversified species of chrysanthemum and people have loved them since ancient times. So enjoying the flourishing chrysanthemum also becomes a key activity on this festival. Also, people will drink chrysanthemum wine. Women used to stick such a flower into their hair or hang its branches on windows or doors to avoid evilness.

In 1989, the Chinese government decided the Double Ninth Festival as Seniors‘ Day. Since then, all government units, organizations and streets communities will organize an autumn trip each year for those who have retired from their posts. At the waterside or on the mountains, the seniors will find themselves merged into nature. Younger generations will bring elder ones to suburban areas or send gifts to them on this day.

今天是一个传统的节日--端午节。

每年端午节，大街小巷都飘着粽子的清香。今年我妈妈的手艺又长进了，她包的粽子不是方的，也不是圆的，而是菱形的。粽子的形状不同，品种也不同，有红枣馅的，有肉馅的，又豆沙馅的，还有蜜枣馅的……。我最爱吃的要属蜜枣粽了，剥开粽叶，雪白的糯米中夹着一颗圆圆的蜜枣，咬一口，甜而不腻，让人回味无穷。

说起端五节，那还有一段感人的故事呢!端午节有一千多年的历史了，传说是为了纪念大诗人屈原的。春秋战国时期，楚国有位著名的大臣，名叫屈原。他不仅诗词写得好，还有相当的谋略;既是一位诗人，也是一位政治家。屈原出身于楚国的贵族，起初颇受楚怀王的信任，曾做到左徒的高官，他主张改良内政，联齐抗秦。但是，楚怀王的令尹子椒、上官大夫靳尚与他的宠妃郑袖等人，由于受了秦国使者张仪的贿赂，不但阻止怀王接受屈原的意见，并且进谗言使怀王疏远了屈原。结果楚怀王被秦国诱去，囚死在秦国。顷襄王即位后，屈原继续受到迫害，并一再遭到放逐。公元前278年，秦国大将白起带兵南下，攻破了楚国国都，屈原对前途感到绝望，就在农历五月除五投汨罗江自尽。大家得知这个消息后，纷纷捕捞屈原的尸体，可是一无所获，人们怕鱼儿吃掉屈原的尸体，就往河里扔粽子，从此便有了端午节吃粽子的风俗。屈原写了很多不朽诗篇，比如有：《离骚》、《天问》等等……我非常喜欢端午节，因为这其中寓含着很丰富的意义。

端午节最快乐的要属我们小朋友了。来到大街上，我们胸口，有个香喷喷的挂件摇来晃去，它叫香袋，是用花布织成的，用五颜六色的线绣上了各种祝福的话。香袋形状各异，有心形的，有星星形的……我有一个香袋呈“心”字香气迷人……

中国有56个民族，每个民族都有自己的习俗。今天，我想告诉你关于苗族的习俗。

苗族人讲究真情实感，非常热情，避免华而不实和虚伪。他们的陆羽客人不踏出第一步，不走在前面；交谈中使用敬语；欢迎客人穿节日服装；对于尊贵的客人，要在塞外用酒迎接；客人到了家，男主人应叫门通知家里的女主，女主唱歌开门迎客；在客人面前，女主人不上楼；宴席上以鸡鸭为代菜，心肝最值钱。应该先给客人或者长辈，客人要给人用。订单早在年轻之前。客人不叫他们“”，他们喜欢叫自己“孟”。

苗族人很讲究礼仪。客人来做客，一定要杀鸡杀鸭待客。如果是远道而来的贵客，苗族人习惯先请客人喝羊角面包。吃鸡的时候，鸡头要给客人。老年人，鸡腿要给最年轻的客人。有的地方还分鸡心的习俗，就是家里年纪最大的主人用筷子把鸡心或鸭心夹给客人，但客人自己不能吃，必须在在座的老人中平分鸡心。如果客人酒量少，不爱吃肥肉，可以说明情况，苗人也不勉强。但是如果他们吃得不够，喝得不够，就会看不起他们。

苗族的热情和乐观是我们56个著名民族的一朵花。

我们中国有许多传统节日，清明节就是其中之一。

We China has many traditional festival, Tomb Sweeping Day is one of them.

每年阳历4月5日就是清明节。清明节是我们缅怀和祭奠先辈的节日。今年清明节我和家人—起去祭奠了祖先。清明节当天—早，我和爸爸、妈妈、外公、外婆还有妹妹—起来到祖先的坟墓前给他们摆上饭菜，敬上酒，点上蜡烛。接着的我们还给先辈们烧了纸钱，放了火炮。然后，爸爸妈妈把清明纸标起来，妈妈告诉我用清明纸插起来或者放在上面用石头压上，就表示家人已经来过了。最后，我们大家站成一排站在先辈的坟墓前默默祈祷。之后，我们就依依不舍的离开了。

The solar calendar year April 5th is tomb sweeping day. Tomb Sweeping Day is our memory and hold a memorial ceremony for the festival. Ching Ming Festival this year my family and I have to hold a memorial ceremony for the ancestors. The day of the festival early, I and my father, mother, Grandpa, grandmother and sister - up to the tombs of their ancestors before them from food, wine, candles. Then we gave our ancestors burned paper money, put the gun. Then, mom and Dad took the paper standard, mom told me to use the paper to put or put pressure on top of stone, said the family had been. Finally, we stand in a row in the ancestor grave to pray silently. After that, we would be reluctant to part from.

这就是我们家乡的清明节。

This is the Ching Ming Festival in our hometown.

人生中有好多第一次，这也是我的第一次：第一次做月饼。

今天，综合实践课上老师要教我们做什么呢？老师说，我们要到食堂去做月饼，一听到这个消息，我们高兴地都要跳起来了。月饼我倒是吃过不少，但自己做月饼还是头一次。想想马上能吃到自己做的月饼，就有点迫不及待了。

活动开始了，我和同学们排好队走进食堂，已经有一批同学做完月饼出来了，并且还把一顶白帽子给了我们，这顶帽子高高的，跟厨师做饭时用的帽子一模一样。当我们戴上帽子，拿起工具，经过这样一打扮，我们就成了一个小小的厨师了。食堂师傅先把我们的“教科材料”发了下来：一个用面粉做成的面团，然后指导我们做月饼。

终于等到自己可以动手了，我先把面团用力揉均匀，然后搓成团，再把它放在桌上轻轻的把它压扁些，再把早已经准备好的芯塞进去。我心想，这芯放了进去，那面团的肚子会不会破呢？想着想着，芯已经被我硬塞了进去，看样子它不是很情愿的。接下来，我就把月饼翻了个身，做成饼状，最后再给它彻底“整整容”，直到自己很满意为止。食堂师傅说“现在我们就来烤月饼吧”。我把我的月饼小心翼翼的放进一个盒子里，坐在座位上，期待着……

终于，我的月饼和其它月饼一起出炉了，我仔细的看着一个个月饼，终于认出了我自己的月饼，它不方，但也不是很圆，黄澄澄的，皮看上去很松脆，闻起来香香的，让人看了会直流口水。我把它小心翼翼地捧到座位上，终于可以吃了，可是当我刚咬完一口后，把月饼重新放回桌上，正在细细品位之际，“啪‘的一声，我的月饼掉在了地上，“哎”真是没口福啊。

这次活动，我虽然没有饱尝到自己的劳动成果，但给我留下了美好的回忆。

“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。”每逢春节时，在天南地北工作的亲人们都汇聚在了一起，家里别提有多热闹了。其中，我最喜欢的节日就是过春节了。那天，我们一起吃团圆饭，一起贴、写对联，一起剪窗花，一起放烟花……

瞧！夜幕降临，正在大学里的姐姐，玩玩具的弟弟妹妹都纷纷赶去奶奶家过新年。没到奶奶家的门口，就听到爷爷的吆喝声：“快来吃团圆饭！快来吃团圆饭！”哇！有我最爱吃的红烧大黄鱼、五辛盘里菜散发着辛味、烤鸭看起来是我的美味佳肴、还有……千年万年的年糕。白年糕黏糊糊的，光看着就能让人流口水。我忍不住先夹了一块，咬了一小口。咦，怎么没味道？我只好把整块夹到嘴里，哇，那滋味美得让人说不出话来。妹妹看到我吃年糕吃得这么有味，也忍不住夹了一块，学着我的样子放进嘴里，咬了咬，“哇！好好吃哦！原来奶奶烧的这么好吃啊！”爷爷也夹了一点鱼：“果然是名不虚传！真是太好了！”“有嘛？有嘛！”奶奶不好意思地笑了笑，“你说的鼻子都变长了！”“哈哈，哈哈！”“呵呵呵！”全家人聚在饭桌前，有滋有味地吃着，夸夸饭菜，说说家常，互相问候，互相祝福，屋子里洋溢着无限的幸福和满足。

春节里不但又好吃的团圆饭，还有好玩的放烟花活动。吃完团圆饭，我和弟弟妹妹们，还有姐姐一起来到广场上放烟花。姐姐拿出了“小金鱼”，拿着“小金鱼”那细细的头，用力往地上一扔，发出了“啪”的响声，还绽放开了小火花，吓得弟弟妹妹们躲到一旁；弟弟拿出了“战斗机”，刚一点燃“战斗机”，战斗就就在地面上飞快地旋转，周围射出光圈，没过一会儿，就飞上了天。“战斗机”像真的战斗机一样在空中飞舞，就像巡逻、保卫者我们的安全；妹妹点燃了“彩色喷泉”，它就像喷泉一样，喷出一束束流星雨来。周围发出一声声赞叹！

各种各样的烟花在空中绽放，真是千姿百态：有的像一条龙在空中游；有的像一只竹蜻蜓飞在上空。我看见这样美丽的烟花，想：我买的新烟花一定比他们漂亮好几倍！我点燃了“大火花”，它直射云霄。过来一会儿，绽开了朵朵大红花。我看着自己放的烟花，别提有多自豪了。

我们跳着，追着，跑着，欢声笑语还回荡在广场上空……

春节和年的概念，最初的含意来自农业，古时人们把谷的生长周期称为“年”。农历正月初一通常都在立春前后，因而把农历正月初一定为“春节”，俗称阴历年。 The concept of the Spring Festival and New Year, the original meaning comes from agriculture.The first day of the first month of the lunar calendar is usually around the spring, so the first month of the lunar calendar must be "Spring Festival", commonly known as the lunar calendar.

过年啊，我们小孩最喜欢的就是放鞭炮和看烟花了，因为放鞭炮可以让小孩找到平时找不到的、意想不到的乐趣。在漆黑黑的夜里可以看到一柱柱烟花升入天空然后爆出美丽的星点时，每个人都会感到无比的幸福。

民间认为分压岁钱给孩子，当恶鬼妖魔或“年”去伤害孩子时，孩子可以用这些钱贿赂它们而化凶为吉。此外，还有一种名副其实的压岁钱，是由晚辈给老人的，岁，就是年岁，岁数，压岁，意在期盼老人长寿。

听说在很久以前的宋代，人们就开始在桃木板上写对联，一则不失桃木镇邪的意义，二则表达自己美好心愿，三则装饰门户，以求美观。又在象征喜气吉祥的红纸上写对联，新春之际贴在门窗两边，用以表达人们祈求来年福运的美好心愿。然后一步步的演化，最后就变成了现在的纸质的、红色的、各式各样的有图画的对联了。

春节还有扫尘的习俗，按民间的说法：因“尘”与“陈”谐音，新春扫尘有“除陈布新”的涵义，其用意是要把一切穷运、晦气统统扫出门。这一习俗寄托着人们破旧立新的愿望和辞旧迎新的祈求。

除夕守岁是最重要的年俗活动之一，守岁之俗由来已久。最早记载见于西晋周处的《风土志》：除夕之夜，各相与赠送，称为“馈岁”;酒食相邀，称为“别岁”;长幼聚饮，祝颂完备，称为“分岁”;大家终夜不眠，以待天明，称曰“守岁”。除夕之夜，除了很小的孩子以外，其他所有人都要守岁。

除夕过后的第二天早晨大人带着小孩就都去拜年了。拜年是中国民间的传统习俗，是人们辞旧迎新、相互表达美好祝愿的一种方式。古时“拜年”一词原有的含义是为长者拜贺新年，包括向长者叩头施礼、祝贺新年如意、问候生活安好等内容。遇有同辈亲友，也要施礼道贺。

春节，中国北方没有人不吃饺子，但是，大家知道这饺子的来历么?和面的“和”字就是“合”的意思;饺子的“饺”和“交”谐音，“合”和“交”又有相聚之意，所以用饺子象征团聚合欢;又取更岁交子之意，非常吉利;此外，饺子因为形似元宝，过年时吃饺子，也带有“招财进宝”的吉祥含义。一家大小聚在一起包饺子，话新春，其乐融融。

文/薛妤橙

在中华传统节日当中，我最喜欢除夕夜了。

除夕夜早上，我在老家的房间里睡觉时，隐隐约约地闻到了一阵阵香气。于是，我就穿上了家居服（在家里专门穿的衣服）咯噔咯噔地走下楼梯去看了个究竟。

哇塞！奶奶正在做一碗碗香气扑鼻的年糕汤，爷爷手中正拿着一碗做好的年糕汤，笑盈盈地对我说：“橙橙！可以吃东西啦！”于是我便飞快地洗脸刷牙然后便坐下来品尝美味的年糕汤。

中午，姑姑带着我和表姐一起开着车去买新衣服。我的衣服很快就买好了，可是表姐她的衣服却一直买不到，跑了好多商店要么是尺码不合适，要么是太丑没有要过年的气味……好不容易跑了两小时才买到合适的衣服。

下午，我们全家一起去后山上祭拜老祖宗们。先到没有草的地方在自己旁边放上纸燃上，然后才能去祭拜。我们先放上供品然后插上香，手里每人还要一根香，拜好后插上……

晚上我们一起吃团圆饭。桌上的食物十分丰盛：有红烧排骨、有鸡翅膀、有土豆丝、有鲳鱼、还有红烧带鱼……

我真喜欢除夕夜！

It is known to all that China has the history of more than 5,000 years and

the culture influences generations. No matter where people live, they keep the

traditional festivals. Such as the people who live in Chinatown. Though some of

them have been immigrants, they still celebrate the traditional festivals. So in

every corner of Chinatown, the Chinese traditional features can be seen

everywhere. The preservation of the traditional culture is the key to help the

country live so long. After the long period of time, the essence of the culture

part have been inherited while the negative part has been removed. Many culture

even influences the foreign country, such as Confucius Institution, where

foreigners learn Chinese culture and mandarin. Though we are facing the impact

of Hollywood culture, the traditional festivals provides an important way to

save local culture.

As important as Spring Festival .It is usually celebrated in September or

October. This festival is to celebrate the harvest and to enjoy the beautiful

moon light. To some extent, it is like Thanks Giving day in western countries.

On this day, people usually get together with their families and have a nice

meal.

After that, people always eat delicious moon cakes, and watch the moon. The

moon is always very round on that day, and makes people think of their relatives

and friends. It is a day of pleasure and happiness. Hope you have a wonderful

Mid Autumn festival!

溪水潺潺，一路的欢快与自由，却惟有从峭壁中倾泻才能激起晶莹的雾珠，才有“飞流直下三千尺，疑是银河落九天”的气势。

百花斗妍，尽散芳香，却惟有春叶秋落，枯枝败叶之时才能引起人们对美的留恋，才会聊以自慰地感叹：“化作春泥更护花”。

在人类画册中，有无数珍奇的色彩，而惟有百色混合，才能描绘理想的梦幻天堂。

人类历史如车轮前进，留下的只有那一道道的车辙。回首往事，嫦娥奔月的八月十五，屈原投江的五月初五，登高插朱萸的九月初九，花灯斗艳的正月十五，都随着历史的车轮来到了高楼林立，虹霓闪烁的现代社会，成为现代生活中别具特色的风景。

然而在现代与传统面前人们疑惑了。是选择现代的浪漫，还是古代的质朴?的确，社会需要进步，时代的车轮不会停滞。然而古朴的传统之美犹如在埃及的尘沙中展露的金字塔一角，会让你激起对远古王国的憧憬;如中国的古长城在重峦叠嶂中蜿蜒的身躯，让你重温孟姜女悲泣的传说;如秦始皇陵兵马俑，让你不得不感叹历史的神奇魅力。正是有了这些传统的魅力，人类才能在现实中展开想象的翅膀，回到紫禁城里畅游一番，回到盛世大唐一睹唐太宗的风范，亦可回到古老的赤壁，现场感受孔明的聪慧。在历史传统中，人人可借古鉴今。纵观历史风云，饱览天下兴亡得失，透过传统的天窗，我们可以看到一个更加广阔的世界，让古人与我们同行，用古人的智慧，用古人的审美，点缀出一个更加美丽、辉煌的现代社会。

在明月朗朗的夜空下，人们带着嫦娥奔月的梦想走进实验室，最终登上了那遥不可及的“广寒宫”，登上了历史发展的另一个新台阶，现代因而更加完美。

在浩瀚的长空下，传统是那黑幕中闪烁光芒的繁星。与那现代的明月相辉映，明月更皎洁与圆满。

鸟儿有了丰腴的羽毛才能畅翔于天际，花儿有了绿叶才越显美丽，而人类也正因有了传统才使现代愈发完美。让那传统的色彩点缀现代社会的光芒，为现代镶上璀璨的金边。
