关于中秋节的英语作文（20篇）

为什么要有这个中秋节呢?因为中秋节的神话传说是嫦娥奔月，后羿常在月下摆酒席，而嫦娥奔月的那天正是八月十五，所以，这天又被称为中秋节。相传月宫里有一个人叫吴刚，是汉朝西河人，曾跟随仙人修道，到了天界，但是他犯了错误，仙人把他贬谪到月宫，每天都砍伐月宫前的桂树，以示惩处。这棵桂树生长繁茂，有五百多丈高，每次砍下去之后，被砍的地方又会立即合拢。

中秋节吃月饼相传始于元代。当时，中原广大人民不堪忍受元朝统治阶级的残酷统治，纷纷起义抗元。朱元璋联合各路反抗力量准备起义。但朝庭官兵搜查的十分严密，传递消息十分困难。军师刘伯温便想出一计策，命令属下把藏有“八月十五夜起义”的纸条藏入饼子里面，再派人分头传送到各地起义军中，通知他们在八月十五日晚上起义响应。到了起义的那天，各路义军一齐响应。

很快，徐达就攻下元大都，起义成功了。消息传来，朱元璋高兴得连忙传下口谕，在即将来临的中秋节，让全体将士与民同乐，并将当年起兵时以秘密传递信息的“月饼”，作为节令糕点赏赐群臣。此后，“月饼”制作越发精细，品种更多。之后中秋节吃月饼的习俗便在民间流传开来。中秋节还有许多歇后语，例如：八月十五看桂花——花好月圆我家的中秋节有许多人陪我，他们都是我的家人，我家的中秋节买了70块月饼，还买了老鼎峰橄榄油月饼。我爱中秋节，我爱我家的中秋节。

有人喜欢春节，有人喜欢除夕……而我却喜欢中秋节。中秋是农历八月十五，关于这个节日还有个故事呢!

后羿从王母娘娘那里得到了一颗“长生不老”药后，娶了一位妻子嫦娥。有一个坏人知道了，逼嫦娥交出仙药，情急之下，嫦娥吞下不死药，慢慢地飘到空中。

每年农历八月十五，都要吃团圆饭。桌子上有香香的鱼块、酸辣的土豆丝、香喷喷的米饭……我们小孩子最开心了，我的碗里堆成了一座小山，再看看我的肚子，鼓鼓的，像一个小皮球，大人们互相倒上了一杯酒，一口就喝了下去。

吃完饭，我来到窗前，一手拿着广式月饼，一手拿着苏式月饼，各吃了一口。广式月饼软软的，皮薄薄的，是豆沙馅的，甜甜的，美味极了!苏式月饼很脆，一咬皮就掉了，是五仁馅的，硬硬的，香香的。我看着天上那轮圆圆的月亮，明亮的像一盏灯，照在地上，一片朦朦胧胧，就好像给大地铺上了一层轻纱。月亮上有两个黑影，那是玉兔和嫦娥吗?我正想着。

这就是我们全家人的中秋节。

中秋节这个词，想必大家都耳目能详了吧，可你过过中秋节吗？和家人一起吃月饼赏月吗？

不知大家是否知道，但是我们家过每个节日都要隆重的办一场，比如清明节我们家要去扫墓，端午节我们每次都要吃粽子，划龙舟，还有国庆节，我们要去北京天安门看升国旗。我们过中秋节都是在爷爷家过的，每当这个时候婆婆叔叔都会来爷爷家吃饭，有时还说小时候的事，而我们小孩都在公园里玩，我们有时可以从7点玩到三四点，一点也不累，我们每一次都在玩捉迷藏。

每当这个时候，爷爷总是得来找我们，但我们都恋恋不舍地离开了公园，回到爷爷家立马闻到了一股饭香味，也不知道知道，平时吃的很少的，我今天吃的格外的多了。

吃完饭后，我们小孩拿了一张凉席铺在外面，躺在上面看月亮，说看谁先睡不着觉，慢慢的我们都闭上了眼睛

我的中秋节

今天是中秋节，正好是星期五。早上我就早早起床。吃完饭我就在家里，一直想今天下午干些什么好。狂欢，表演，不行，这些都不适合中秋节终于，我想出了一件非常好的选择，就是开派对。

中午我吃完饭的时候，我跟妈妈说:妈，我下午去开派对了。妈妈说:去哪开派对。我回答到:我弟弟家。妈妈叫到:你怎么不带我呀，开派对这种事我最行了。我说:好吧。我心想，我妈是改性的还是怎么了，居然会开派对，好吧，反正说也说了，让她去吧。

下午我的四个弟弟集合在我第二个大的弟弟的家里，在桌子上买买了许多好吃又好玩的东西，比如说我最爱吃的鱼香肉丝和麻辣小龙虾，还有我最爱玩的乐高拼装玩具，当然少不了中秋节的主要食物，月饼，今天晚上可气派了，我和我的弟弟们个个都是吃辣高手，我们一起举办吃辣大会，就是比谁吃辣的最多。最后是我赢了，奖品是十个麻辣小龙虾。

我敢说，今天是我最快乐的一天了。

Dear Jim,

I’m writing to tell you more about the new form of sharing bike--mobike

mentioned in your latest letter.

It’s very convenient to use if you have a smartphone. What you do is to

find a nearest mobike through the APP, scan the QR code on the bike, and enjoy

your trip.

Compared to other forms of sharing bike, the greatest advantage of mobike

is that you can easily find one and never worry about where to park it. It is

becoming a new trend as a means of transportation, which relieves the traffic

pressure and does good to the environment as well.

Hope to ride a mobike with you in China.

Yours,

Li Hua

今天，又是一年一度的中秋佳节，家人们全都来了。这个中秋可真是美丽呀!

吃完晚饭后，我们便来到屋顶花园上赏月。大家围坐在桌子边，一边吃着月饼，一边等待月亮的出现。过了很久，月亮没有出来，我在心里自我安慰道：“一般的情况下，月亮出来的越晚，就表示月亮会更美。一定是月亮姐姐在云雾中打扮自己，好向人们展现出自己的婀娜多姿。”

又过了大约一个小时，天空中还是什么都没有，时而有一架飞机飞过，机上的夜灯一闪一闪的，像是一颗流星慢慢划过，给神奇的夜空添上了一颗闪烁的宝石。天上的云密密层层，既像一张巨大的床单，又像一块暗蓝色的布。地面上，房屋、街道、霓虹灯显得格外引人注目。我有点耐不住性子了：“月亮怎么还不出来呀，我都等了好久了，难道今晚看不见月亮啦?”算了吧，我还是再等等一会儿就会有月亮了。又等了好久，我有些失望了，竟然在不知不觉中睡着了。

“快看，有亮光!”不知过了过久，我被妹妹的惊呼声给吵醒了。大家顺着妹妹手指的地方望去，果然，那一方天空，有一团黄色的剪影，这种黄色，黄得美丽，黄得可爱，把天空都照成紫微微的了，天空一下子亮了许多，给人一种恬静美的享受。过了一会，月亮又害羞地躲进了云层中，露出朦朦胧胧的影，这影，像天空中的夜灯，从未有过这样的美。

月亮依然在不停地爬呀爬，天空中的月亮渐渐有了些变化，光越来越亮，由淡变浓，像一层黄色的雾。过了许久，月亮终于露出了妩媚的笑容，揭开了神秘的面纱，月亮圆圆的，不算很大，也不算很亮，把天空照得有几丝神秘，像一颗精巧的夜明珠。我看得入了迷，周围的景物都变得暗淡无色，整个城市沐浴在朦胧的`夜光中，月光给大地铺上了银毯。不一会儿，来了一片云，把月亮又遮住了，天空一下子恢复了原样。

中秋节除了赏月，品尝月饼，听故事也是必不可少的了。吃了一会月饼，妈妈和小姨说要给我们讲一讲关于月亮的故事，叫我们一边吃月饼，一边听故事，那样才有一番风味。她们讲得娓娓动听，我不禁入了迷。在听故事时，我不禁想：“月亮那么美丽，又带一点思念之情，是那么纯洁无暇!难怪会有那么多关于月亮的神话和动人的传说，真想能到月宫里去见见美丽的嫦娥，抱抱可爱的玉兔。”

中秋的夜，中秋的月，美丽的中秋，快乐的夜晚!

The Culture of China is home to one of the worlds oldest and most complex

civilizations. China boasts a history rich in over 5,000 years of artistic,

philosophical, political, and scientific advancement. Though regional

differences provide a sense of diversity, commonalities in language and religion

connect a culture distinguished by such significant contributions such as

Confucianism and Taoism. Confucianism was the official philosophy throughout

most of Imperial Chinas history and strongly influenced other countries in East

Asia. Mastery of Confucian texts provided the primary criterion for entry into

the imperial bureaucracy.

With the rise of Western economic and military power beginning in the

mid-19th century, Western systems of social and political organization gained

adherents in China. Some of these would-be reformers rejected Chinas cultural

legacy, while others sought to combine the strengths of Chinese and Western

cultures.

China is a unified nation consisting of many different ethnic groups.

Fifty-six different ethnic groups make up the great Chinese national family.

Because the Han people accounts for more than ninety percent of Chinas

population, the remaining fifty-five groups are generally referred to as "ethnic

minorities." Next to the majority Han, the Mongolian, Hui, Tibetan, and Uygur

peoples comprise the largest ethnic groups. Although Chinas ethnic minorities

do not account for a large portion of the population, they are distributed over

a vast area, residing in every corner of China.

Particularly since the implementation of Chinas opening and reform policy,

the central government has increased investment in minority areas and

accelerated their opening to the outside world. This has resulted in an upsurge

of economic development in these areas. Each of Chinas ethnic minority groups

possesses a distinctive culture. The Chinese government respects minority

customs, and works to preserve, study, and collate the cultural artifacts of

Chinas ethnic minority groups. The government vigorously supports the

development of minority culture and the training of minority cultural workers,

and fosters the development of traditional minority medicine.

The relation among Chinas ethnic groups can be described as "overall

integration, local concentration, mutual interaction." Concentrations of ethnic

minorities reside within predominantly Han areas, and the Han people also reside

in minority areas, indicating that there has been extensive exchanges among

Chinas ethnic groups since ancient times. With the development of the market

economy, interaction among ethnic groups has become even more active in the

areas of government, economics, culture, daily life, and marriage. Linked by

interdependence, mutual assistance, and joint development, their common goals

and interests creating a deep sense of solidarity, Chinas ethnic groups

resemble a great national family, together building Chinese civilization.

今天是中秋节，晚上我和爸爸妈妈在家里，看了“中国好声音”的中秋晚会。晚上有个节目，特别让人感动，当倪鹏和单冲锋唱起《当我想你的时候》，屏幕上出现了各个歌手的家人，有送给他们祝福的，也有些表达对他们支持的，各个歌手看到以后都泪流满面。

歌手为什么会流泪呢?开始我还不明白，后来听了主持人伊一的采访和爸爸的解释，我就慢慢明白了，他们流泪是因为，他们为了梦想，为了给家人更好的生活，长期在外打拼而没有回家，所以他们思念亲人，这让我懂得了，中秋最美是亲情，中秋最美是思念，中秋最美是感恩。

今天我和爸爸、妈妈、爷爷、奶奶、姑姑一起吃了一顿丰富而特别的团圆饭。

我们的晚餐是水果月饼晚餐。我担当小厨师为大家服务。我准备的晚餐有一盘黄桃，一盘鲜枣，一盘石榴，一盘桔子，一盘玉米和好吃的月饼。大家都觉得非常好吃，对我做的晚餐很满意。

饭后，我还为大家演奏了几首好听的钢琴曲，我和姑姑配合边弹边唱了几首儿童歌曲，大家为我们鼓掌。爷爷和奶奶问了我这一个月上学的情况，爷爷、奶奶夸我上学后我长高和长大懂事了很多，爸爸妈妈让我继续努力!爷爷说很想我，我也很想爷爷和奶奶，我和爷爷约定国庆节一起出去玩，我非常开心!

我度过了一个非常美好的中秋佳节。

For the first time in everyones experience! For example: the first time to

ride a bicycle, write a book, play a computer for the first time, keep a dog for

the first time, etc! And my first time is climbing!

On a sunny holiday, our family unanimously decided to take exercise -

climbing Maanshan! Maanshan ecological park is located in the south of Yangwu

village, Daling mountain. The main peak is 329.2 meters above sea level. It is

divided into two small peaks at the front and back. It is named Maanshan because

of its shape similar to Maanshan. It used to be a quarry. All the stones mined

were transported to all parts of the city as building materials, bringing

considerable economic benefits to the local area and seriously damaging the

ecological environment. In order to build a civilized, harmonious and ecological

home, the village committee decided to close the quarry and invest 5 million

yuan to build it into an ecological park. Now there are Jinling, Qixingling,

Jiti stone, Qilin mountain and other scenic spots. When I came to the foot of

Maanshan, I stared at the top of Maanshan stupidly. In my mind, I thought of the

complacent expression of climbing to the mountain. After that, I cant wait to

follow the route to the top of the mountain!

At first, I was a living tiger, just like a hungry tiger, flying to the top

of the mountain! The road is getting steeper and steeper, and the fork road runs

across. Its half the way to the top of the mountain. After a long time, the

physical strength is naturally consumed and the knowledge is not much. Im

sweating!! Seeing thousands of houses, cars and pedestrians under my feet, I

secretly encouraged myself: there is still a little way to go, stick to it, and

soon climb to the top of the mountain, dont be discouraged, learn to stick to it

on this road! Only persistence can make people succeed! Time flows silently on

me. I climb to the top of the mountain. I am ecstatic and rush forward in one

breath. Finally climbed to the top of the mountain! Ah! The scenery at the top

of the mountain is so intoxicating and impressive!

As if everything under my feet is my world! The whole village can be seen

clearly. I learned a truth from it, that is: in life, whether it is laid-off, or

encountered difficulties, or be fired and so on. Dont be discouraged. As a human

being, we should learn not to be discouraged in the face of difficulties. In all

kinds of tests of life, just like climbing a mountain, we cant give up halfway,

as long as we stick to it, we will succeed!

The usage of Internet becomes one of the most controversial topics in the

society. As a college student, I believe Internet is beneficial to me more than

the way it harms me. There are many advantages for using Internet.

First, I can best use my time to find information online instead of going

to different libraries. Also, the information can be dated back in decades ago.

It is very helpful to use those information as reference and historical proof.

In the library, it is hard to find so much "old" information. Another advantage

to use Internet is that I can stay home and have a lecture online. It is much

more convenience to me because I can stay warm to have class in the winter time

instead of spending two hours on the bus and physically attend class. In

addition, Internet provides me a better way to communicate with my friends and

professors. I can get response from my professor in a few minutes instead of

waiting outside of his door for hours. Some of my friends are living in a

foreign countries, I can simply just drop him an email whenever I can and get a

message from him very quick. It is much better than waiting for letters. Also,

the email will not lose while the letter might be losing in the process of

delivery.

However, there are also disadvantage of using Internet. For example, I

might spend too much time on the Internet to concentrate on my study. Also,

there is a chance that I am cheated because of the Internet purchasing. Last,

Internet has lots of information, both helpful and harmful. There might be too

much tempatation that I will access some of the harmful information I can on the

Internet.

Even though the usage of Internet has both positive and negative effect to

me, I still consider Internet is a symbol of technology development. I believe I

can use the Internet very well as long as I know how to control myself.

每年农历八月十五日，是我国传统的中秋佳节。这时是一年秋季的中期，所以被称为中秋。这也是我国仅次于春节的第二大传统节日。啊！不知不觉，今年的中秋节又到了。

我望着窗外的景色，一望无际的天空中挂着一轮明亮的圆月，下面是繁华的街道，一辆辆汽车、摩托车在路上飞驰，路边广场上有下棋的老人，追逐嬉戏的小孩儿，……一片喜庆热闹的景象，明月、街道、夜空、人们，构成了一幅绝妙的图画。

“小时不识月，呼作白玉盘”。如今，那明亮的圆月，的确像白玉盘！我和爸爸妈妈一起吃着月饼，喝着饮料，享受着这美好愉快的时光。

月圆对花好，夜深了，我家的昙花、茉莉花开了，嗅着昙花、茉莉花的花香，观赏着夜空中的明月，听着爸爸讲述常娥奔月的故事，我感到万分的幸福。

不知什么时候，云把月亮遮住了，天色暗了下来，我和爸爸开始下棋，听爸爸讲他小时候的故事，畅谈着今天的幸福生活，真是“其乐融融”。

我们一直玩到12点才尽兴。夜已经深了，只有几只鹧鸪在啼叫。我望了望窗外，月亮已经从云雾中跳出，仿佛正在冲我笑。

在芬芳的桂花香里，我们迎来了一年一度的传统节日中秋节。

今天，我早早地就起床了。因为今天可是中秋节呀!我迫不及待地冲出家门。来到外面，啊!桂花香中混着青草味儿，还有各种果香味都在空气中弥漫着。这就是春秋的味道。

我跑进屋里，只见妈妈和奶奶正准备去买菜。我也跑了过去，凑热闹。

来到大街上。人可真多，我们仿佛置身于人的海洋。来到菜市场，人更多。我们在里面差点被挤成一块馅饼，喇叭声、喊叫声、敲击声…和成了一部交响乐。我们己进一家月饼店，各式各样的月饼，使我眼花缭乱。有苏式的、广式的，包装盒上的图案也五彩缤纷。有绚丽的烟火，还有中秋皎洁的明月…口味也很多，既有美味的伍仁儿，又有新奇的水果味儿…我们买了爷爷爱吃的五仁月饼，还买了我爱吃的蛋黄月饼。

走在回家路上，我感觉身心轻盈，像是一只小鸟，我一边跳着一边哼着，妈妈教我的中秋歌谣:"8月10五是中秋，家家户户上高楼，月明喜照人间地，人间欢笑乐悠悠…"

我们回到家已是中午，吃过午饭后，家里成了战场，妈妈在厨房里杀鸡煎鱼煮肉，奶奶在菜园里摘着新鲜的蔬果和生菜，爸爸忙着打扫卫生。

晚上，一切都布置好了。桌上摆着月饼、橘子，还有鸡汤，红烧鱼，这时，表哥一家来了，我们聚在一起拉家常，真是不亦乐乎。

吃过晚饭，我们坐在桂花树下，明月缓缓升起。是一轮皎洁的圆月，我们一家吃着月饼，爷爷高兴的说:"月圆家更圆!"大家都笑了起来。我也和表哥在旁边猜着谜语，一家人，其乐融融，乐不思蜀。

啊!又是一年中秋，又是一个团圆日，又是一年新气象。

With the development of technology, bicycle sharing comes into peoples

lives. It becomes more and more popular and much news reported it. At the same

time, we should see that there are some problems caused by bicycle sharing.

On one side, bicycle sharing makes it very convenient of people traveling.

You can find a bicycle anywhere at any time when you want to go out for a

cycling, and the price of one trip is very low. It cansave time for people. On

the other side, its management is not perfect. Even kids can open the lock and

ride the bicycle, there is no doubt that such behavior is very dangerous. Whats

more, many people deliberately break it, like throw it to the river or destroy

the code above it.

In my opinion, we should take a developing view about bicycle sharing. It

is obviously helpful to human beings as a high-tech product. The government

should introduce relevant provisions toregulate this market to avoid its

disadvantages.

Many years ago, when China was poor and lagged much behind the world, a lot

of men went to California to seek for gold in the hope that they could be rich

when they returned to hometown. American dream once influenced the world and it

attracted people to realize their dreams. But today, the future is in China.

Many young people come to China to find their dreams.

Chinese economy developed very fast in the last decades, the market is full

of vitality and booming. More and more students choose to study abroad, but most

of them decide to return China to start their business, which is very different

with ten years ago. At that time, finding jobs in foreign countries was their

target. Whats more, China attracts foreigners to come and seek for cooperation,

because they know clearly that China can provide the chance they need.

Mandarin is learned by people from all around the world. The newest report

shows that more than 100 million people learn Chinese, which is the worlds

second language, and only ranks behind English. Chinese dream helps them to have

more chances.

光阴似箭，日月如梭，转眼间又到了中秋节，中秋节到啦!

我和爸爸妈妈赶紧吃好晚饭，等待着月亮公公的出现。月亮公公终于出来了，它一闪一闪的，好像在说：“祝大家中秋节快乐!”我们坐在阳台上，一边赏月一边吃月饼，我拿起一个豆沙月饼，咬了一口，觉得不好吃，就往桌子上一放，又拿了一个水蜜桃的，津津有味地吃了起来，妈妈把台上的月饼拿起来，还对我说：“孩子，你知道孩子，你知道我们小时候是怎样过中秋节的吗?在中秋节，我们一家七八口人买一个大月饼，只能等月亮出来来后，供了月亮公公后才能分着吃，那时候的月饼，最好吃的也比不过你刚才扔掉的那个好吃，可是我们都吃得津津有味。你们生长的时代不同了，科技也发达了，月饼也非常好吃了。这些都离不开为科学做贡献了人。你长大后也应该为后人做出一些贡献。

通过这次吃月饼和妈妈的教诲，我知道了我们中国的科学正在迅速发展，时代正在快速的进步，可我又应该为这样的发展做一些什么呢!

中秋节到啦!

After I go to school, teachers always tell me to study hard, so that I can

be the excellent student. But now I have grown up, I have my own idea. The

reason for me to study hard is to return my parents’ love. When they are old, I

can make a lot of money and let them have a better life.

We are always trying to find the way to success, which stands for power,

pride and glory. There have been strings of stories of success I was told since

I was a child. From then on, I have been fascinated with being successful.

Whatsuccess? Different people have different opinions towards this

question. To start with, some people, such as accountants, workers and so on,

are longing for being rich, which allows them buy what they want, and enjoy

luxury. They treat it as success. Furthermore, some contestants, such as boxers,

are always trying their best to defeat their rivals for success. And once they

win, they confirm that they are stronger than others. The last but not the

least, there are some other people who enjoy helping others. As a good saying

goes, the roses in her hand, the flavor in mine. With helping others, we can

also feel satisfactory.

As far as I am concerned, life is short, and we must achieve something

during our life. So I regard striving and working hard important. When comes to

we reap what we sow, it’s the time of success.

Mid-autumn is a traditional festival in China. It’s also called Autumn festive, August festival, daughters festival, or Reunion festival and so on. It’s often on August 15th in lunar calendar every year, but in some places, it’s on the 16th August, such as Ningbo, Lanzhou and Zhou Shan.

Mid-autumn day is thought to be the best festival with human touch or interest and poetic sentiment and mood of a painting. It’s a reunion festival, on the day, people always miss close relatives and friends. Wherever they are, they always go home to see their parents and brothers and sisters, or their wife or husband and their children. The people who are in far away also give a call to the persons they are concerning with.

On this day, people often eat moon cake, nuts and some special food. And in some places, the days before Mid-autumn day, they do the rabbits with wheat, which stand of peace and reunion. On the evening, family members or friends always stay together to watch the moon as eating moon cake and nuts, or as talking each other happily.

盼望已久的中秋节终于来临了。我爱中秋节，因为每当过中秋节家里人都会热热闹闹团聚在一起，也会有很多美食，所以对于我这小吃货来说是再好不过了，但是我最喜欢的还是香甜可口的月饼。

月饼的香味，一闻，就“口水直流三千尺”了。记得去年中秋节，家里人都在楼上赏月，我像只老鼠似的溜进客厅，偷偷拿了四个我最喜欢的蛋黄小月饼，三下五除二，就把它们塞进了我的肚子里，好像还没吃过瘾。准备再拿时，妈妈走了下来，她看到少了一半的月饼，笑着问：“宾宾，是你偷吃了吗?”我心里一慌，摇摇头。妈妈伸手擦了擦我的嘴巴。“你看还有月饼渣，好吃鬼!，吃多了会不消化的。”

糟糕，被识破了，三十六计走为上计，溜到门口，拍拍肚皮，我深呼了口气。哎，月饼好吃可不能贪吃呀，而妈妈则在一旁乐得直不起腰来。

我爱中秋节，爱吃香甜可口的月饼，爱月饼里那份幸福的味道。
