介绍中秋节的英语

全文共 1459 字

+ 加入清单

The Mid-Autumn or Moon Festival is one rich in poetic(诗意的) significance. Ancient legends(古代的传说) that became interwoven with this festival‘s celebration further contribute to the warm regard in which it has always been held by the Chinese people. According to the lunar calendar(农历), the seventh, eighth, and ninth months constitute the autumn season. Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, precisely in the middle of this season, when the heat of the summer has given way to cool autumn weather, marked by blue skies and gentle breezes. On this day the moon is at its greatest distance from the earth; at no other time is it so luminous. Then, as the Chinese say, “The moon is perfectly round.” In the villages the heavy work involved in the summer harvest has already been completed but the autumn harvest has not yet arrived.

The actual origins of the Mid-Autumn Festival are still very unclear. The earliest records are from the time of the great Han dynasty emperor Wu Di, who initiated celebrations lasting three days, including banquets and “Viewing the Moon” evenings on the Toad Terrace. We know that people during the Jin dynasty (265-420 A.D.) continued the custom of Mid-Autumn Festival celebrations, and similar accounts have come down to us from the time of the Tang dynasty. During the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) houses and gardens were decorated with numerous lanterns and the sound of gongs and drums filled the air.

篇2:介绍伦敦

全文共 2108 字

七月,当踏上英国伦敦的游学之旅时,我的心情无比激动。短短的二十天,却给我留下了终身难忘的记忆!

当我们到达伦敦时,天空下起了绵绵小雨。在和风细雨中感受到的伦敦非常温柔,没有夏日的炎热,也没有人群的喧闹,一切都好像静了下来……我忽然意识到西方人对待生活正如这天气一样,他们过得随性、悠闲。周末,没有太多的人会待在家里继续忙工作或学习。他们只是外出放松、享受。泰晤士河河岸,到处是熙熙攘攘的人群。大家愉悦的笑脸,轻松的脚步,一切都像是静止的画卷。街边,是各式各样的咖啡店,人们一边听歌一边喝咖啡,别有一番情趣。

这是我对伦敦最初的印象,随着我一步步走近她,更让我看到了一个古典与现代、繁华与幽静并存的城市。

古朴、文明的伦敦

伦敦是英国的首都,一直是英国历史与文化的中心。历史悠久的古建筑依然伫立在那里,而一座座崭新的现代化高楼又拔地而起,古老和现代形成鲜明的对比。隔着玻璃窗,你会看到那红色标志性的电话亭,看到那著名的塔桥,看到远处那饱经历史沧桑的大本钟,一种激动、喜悦之情油然而生。

乘上汽车,我们首先参观了大英博物馆。走进博物馆,映入眼帘的是一尊雕像,随后便是盘旋而上的楼梯。刚上楼梯,就看到排成一列的古钟,很有特色。听老师说其中有一个是来自于中国的,我真想把它抱走。哎,只是体积太大,没办法。

令我印象最深的是埃及馆中的木乃伊。一开始还好,木乃伊是装在木棺材里的,之后又变成了拆掉木棺材、只是被布包着的木乃伊,然后布都拆了,看到的木乃伊骨头上还有肉,好恶心啊!最后……就变成骷髅了。天啊,实在看不下去了!我便不顾一切地冲出了埃及馆。

随后,我走进了中国馆,一尊尊佛像、一幅幅画一一陈列在我的面前,我也仿佛回到了我那可爱的祖国。接着,我怀着对日本文化的兴趣走进了日本馆。各式各样的彩瓷美不胜收,还有日本式的房屋,很精致地摆放在那。进入韩国馆,就被富有韩国韵味的书画吸引。

我们又参观了大英博物馆里的图书室。据说那里面珍藏的都是代表英国最重要、影响最深远的文献资料、书籍手稿,包括历史上第一份保障人民权利的大宪章,英国著名作家莎士比亚、狄更斯、歌手披头士乐队的手稿。除英文外,还有阿拉伯文、波斯文、土耳其文、梵文、印度文、蒙古文和中文等多种文字的书籍,仅中文书刊就有6万多种。还有一个Chinese Jade(中华美玉)馆,里面展示了各式各样的玉雕、玉佩。

大英博物馆。人类文化与历史的交融地。

权力的象征——白金汉宫

这天,怀着崇敬的心情,跟随着旅行车,我来到了梦中都向往的的英国女王居住地——白金汉宫。啊,又是一座恢宏雄伟的建筑!真不愧为女王居住、办公的地方。白金汉宫本身就很吸引人,再加上前面有一大片绿油油的草坪——五颜六色的鲜花在盛开,一群鸽子在那儿休憩。白金汉宫对面还有一个广场,有一尊维多利亚女王雕像,更加让人有种身处“世外桃源”的感觉。

白金汉宫是英国历代君主的寝宫,是英皇权力的中心地。皇宫是一座灰色建筑物,四周围着栏杆,宫殿前面的广场上耸立着许多雕像。胜利女神金像站在高高的大理石台上,金光闪闪,就好像要从天而降似的。宫殿是四层楼的正方形大建筑物,宫内分为典礼厅、音乐厅、宴会厅、画廊等六百余间厅室,此外还有占地辽阔的御花园。花园里花团锦簇,美不胜收。除了皇宫内部外,值得参观的地方还有:皇家美术馆、皇家马厩和知名的禁卫军交接典礼。现在白金汉宫已对外开放,每天预约而至的人潮如一条长龙。

最让人怀念的是白金汉宫的换岗仪式。每到这个时候啊。人山人海,但看还是要看一下的。想想女王陛下也真是不容易,如果换了是我,天天那么多人企图窥视的话,不疯掉,也被吵死了。士兵们开始奏乐,皇家卫队开始进行换岗仪式。虽然这不能和北京天安门的升旗仪式气势相比,但是在人口较少的英国。这种景象也是很壮观的。骑马的卫队在军乐和口令声中,进行各种列队表演,并举枪互致敬礼,一派王室气象。

全新的感受——伦敦塔桥

早就听说,登上塔桥是了解塔桥历史、建筑,以及欣赏泰晤士河风光的最佳地点。在游览过白金汉宫后,我们便来到了伦敦塔桥。

它建于1886至1894年,因桥身由4座塔形建筑联接而得名。伦敦塔桥的两座主塔高140英尺,两塔之间跨度为200英尺。桥分为上下两层:下层桥面可以开合,平时通车。桥椅开启时可容万吨船只通过;上层为一条宽阔的悬空人行道,两旁装有玻璃窗,行人签桥可欣赏泰晤士河景色。我与同伴大步流星地登上了悬空人行道,所见之处是一片沉静祥和之美。站在桥头向远处望,那真是令人心旷神怡,浮想联翩,任由遐想的思绪像断了线的风筝一般越飘越远……船静静行驶在波光粼粼的泰晤士河上,涟漪一圈圈地散开,把我的烦恼也一丝丝地散开,带走了。

这时远处的大本钟刚好响起,“咚——”这沉重而铿锵的钟声相信1000米以外的人都能听到吧。

我喜欢伦敦,虽没有更多时尚的琉璃,也没有擎天的高楼,但历史的沧桑却为这些古老精致的哥特式建筑烙上了最珍贵的印记,仿佛满头银发的慈祥老者在为来人讲述一段又一段值得细细品读、深深回味的人生经历;透着淡淡的奢华,却全然没有高高在上的架势;不苟言笑,却友好和善。正如莎翁所说,伦敦是一个永远不会让人厌倦的城市。

这次的游学之旅真正让我体会到了这点。

现在妈妈都夸我做饭好吃,所以这就是我的周末玩有趣无聊,我的周末好是我的美好孤独的开心的周末吗?这就是我的周末。

全文共 5870 字

+ 加入清单

I am pleased to serve as your guide today.

This is the palace museum; also know as the Purple Forbidden City. It is the largest and most well reserved imperial residence in China today. Under Ming Emperor Yongle, construction began in 1406. It took 14years to build the Forbidden City. The first ruler who actually lived here was Ming Emperor Zhudi. For five centuries thereafter, it continued to be the residence of23 successive emperors until 1911 when Qing Emperor Puyi was forced to abdicate the throne .In 1987, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization recognized the Forbidden City was a world cultural legacy.

It is believed that the Palace Museum, or Zi Jin Cheng (Purple Forbidden City), got its name from astronomy folklore, The ancient astronomers divided the constellations into groups and centered them around the Ziwei Yuan(North Star). The constellation containing the North Star was called the Constellation of Heavenly God and star itself was called the purple palace. Because the emperor was supposedly the son of the heavenly gods, his central and dominant position would be further highlighted the use of the word purple in the name of his residence. In folklore, the term ”an eastern purple cloud is drifting” became a metaphor for auspicious events after a purple cloud was seen drifting eastward immediately before the arrival of an ancient philosopher, LaoZi, to the Hanghu Pass. Here, purple is associated with auspicious developments. The word jin (forbidden) is self-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-limits to ordinary people.

The red and yellow used on the palace walls and roofs are also symbolic. Red represents happiness, good fortune and wealth. Yellow is the color of the earth on the Loess Plateau, the original home of the Chinese people. Yellow became an imperial color during the Tang dynasty, when only members of the royal family were allowed to wear it and use it in their architecture.

The Forbidden City is rectangular in shape. It is 960 meters long from north to south and 750 meter wide from east west. It has 9,900 rooms under a total roof area 150,000 square meters .A 52-meter-wide-moat encircles a 9.9-meter—high wall which encloses the complex. Octagon —shaped turrets rest on the four corners of the wall. There are four entrances into the city: the Meridian Gate to the south, the Shenwu Gate(Gate of Military Prowess) to the north, and the Xihua Gate(Gate of military Prowess) to the north, and the Xihua Gate(Western Flowery Gate )to the west ,the Donghua (Eastern Flowery Gate) to the east.

Manpower and materials throughout the country were used to build the Forbidden City. A total of 230,000 artisans and one million laborers were employed. Marble was quarried from fangshan Country Mount Pan in Jixian County in Hebei Province. Granite was quarried in Quyang County in Hebei Province. Paving blocks were fired in kilns in Suzhou in southern China. Bricks and scarlet pigmentation used on the palatial walls came from linqing in Shandong Province .Timber was cut ,processed and hauled from the northwestern and southern regions.

The structure in front of us is the Meridian Gate. It is the main entrance to the forbidden City. It is also knows as Wufenglou(Five-Phoenix Tower). Ming emperors held lavish banquets here on the 15th day of the first month of the Chinese lunar year in hornor of their counties .They also used this place for punishing officals by flogging them with sticks.

Qing emperors used this building to announce the beginning of the new year. Qing Emperor Qianglong changed the original name of this announcement ceremony from ban li(announcement of calendar)to ban shou(announcement of new moon )to avoid coincidental association with another Emperor` s name, Hongli, which was considered a taboo at that time. Qing Dynasty emperors also used this place to hold audience and for other important ceremonies. For example,when the imperial army returned victoriously from the battlefield ,it was here that the Emperor presided over the ceremony to accept prisoners of war.

(After entering the Meridian Gate and standing in front of the Five Marble Bridges on Golden Water River)

Now we are inside the Forbidden City.Before we start our tour, I would like to briefly introduce you to the architectural patterns befour us .To complete this solemn, magnificent and palatial complex, a variety of buildings were arranged on a north-south axis, and 8-kilometer-long invisible line that has become an inseparable part of the City of Beijing. The Forbidden City covers roughly one –third of this central axis. Most of the important building in the Forbidden City weree arranged along this line. The design and arrangement of the palaces reflect the solemn dignity of the royal court and rigidly –stratified feudal system.

The Forbidden City is divided into an outer and an inner count.We are now standing on the southernmost part of the outer count. In front of us lies the Gate of supreme Harmony .The gate is guarded by a pair of bronze lions ,symbolizing imperial power and dignity. The lions were the most exquisite and biggest of its kind. The one on the east playing with a ball is a male, and ball is said to represent state unity. The other one is a female. Underneath one of its fore claws is a cub that is considered to be a symbol of perpetual imperial succession. The winding brook before us is the Golden Water River. It functions both as decoration and fire control .The five bridges spanning the river represent the five virtues preached by Confucius :benevolence, righteousness, rites, intellence and fidelity. The river takes the shape of a bow and the north-south axis is its arrow. This was meant to show that the Emperors ruled the country on behalf of God.

篇20:英语介绍樱花

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.
