Im Alina Li and Im Ben Hedges, and today well be taking you through some of the most important traditions of Chinese new year and historical background. We will look at some of the legends behind Chinese new year and how to celebrate it. Here in the US and Chinese across the world.

The Chinese have specific way to celebrate their new year. If you walk down the street in Chinatown during Chinese New Year, you see a variety of ancient traditions such as red banners, firecrackers and lion dance performances, streets are filled with lively celebration.

However, legend has said that the new year has not always been a time of festivity. An Asian Chinese story told a chilly start to this festive holiday, it begins with an ancient Chinese beast called Nian.

Every New Year Nian would rise from swelling in the sea to ravage Chinese village in livestock and hurting people. The villages soon found out from a wise gray-haired old man that the only way to scare the beast away was to set off firecrackers and light lamps and to hang red banners on each door. As the story goes, this was the beginning of a tradition that would last thousands of years.

So this story leads to the creation of many of other traditions for celebrating Chinese New Year. lets take a look at some of these traditions.

During the summer vacation I came to the seashore city - Qingdao. To Qingdao, I look, wow! Qingdao is everywhere in the boundless sea, and it is particularly beautiful.

When I see the first eye of the sea, I cant tell which is the sea. The sea can be compared with the sky, you said that the sea is not very beautiful! Hai Mei, the sea is more beautiful. I suspect that the sea has special skills. The sand washed by the sea is very comfortable to use on the feet, and it spilt on the sand with its own water and then it has no comfortable feeling on foot. Whats more amazing is that the buoyancy of the sea is very large. Standing in the sea, walking down the waves, lowering the head and seeing that the sand is floating in the sea, is it amazing?

At night, the sea of beauty can not be described, sitting on the shore, enjoying the sea in the night, blowing the sea breeze, I seem to enter the fairyland. Looking far away, it was so beautiful that the sea was shining with the moonlight, like the stars, as if they were waving to us.

Im leaving Qingdao. On the train, I think of the waves, the sea breeze and the sand in Qingdao. Let me go back and forth.

I love Qingdao, and I feel proud of so many beautiful motherland!

暑假里我来到了海滨城市—青岛。到了青岛，我一看，哇！青岛到处都是无边无际的大海，而且还特别的美。

我看到海的第一眼，就分不清哪是天哪是海。海都能和天空相比，你们说海是不是很美啊！海美，海水更美，我怀疑海水有特别的功力，被海水冲洗过的沙子用脚踩上去，特别舒服，而用自己带的水洒在沙子上，再用脚踩上去就没有舒服的感觉。更神奇的是，海水的浮力特别的大，站在海水里，踏着浪花，低下头看到了沙子都在海水中漂浮着，是不是很神奇呢？

晚上的海美的都无法形容，坐在岸上，欣赏着夜色中的海，吹着海风，我似乎进入了仙境。向远处看，太漂亮了，海水在月光的照耀下，上面像洒满了星星，好像在向我们招手。

我要离开青岛了，在火车上，我还想着青岛的海浪、海风、沙子。让我留恋往返。

我爱青岛，更为如此多娇的祖国而感到自豪！

Yangzhou (simplified Chinese:扬州) is a prefecture-level city in central Jiangsu Province, Peoples Republic of China. Sitting on the northern bank of the Yangtze River, it borders the provincial capital of Nanjing to the southwest, Huaian to the north, Yancheng to the northeast, Taizhou to the east, and Zhenjiang across the river to the south. Historically it is one of the wealthiest of Chinas cities, known at various periods for its great merchant families, poets, painters, and scholars.

Geography and climate

Rivers: the Yangtze River, Jinghang Canal, Baoshe River, Datong River, Beichengzi River, Tongyang Canal, Xintongyang Canal, Baima Lake, Baoying Lake, Gaoyou Lake, Shaobo Lake.

Local landscape: Slender west lake, Ge garden, He garden, Da ming temple, Phoenix island, etc. Subtropical monsoon climate with humid changeable wind; longer winters for about 4 months, summers 3 months and shorter springs and autumns, 2 months respectively; frost-free period of 222 days and annual average sunshine of 2177 hours. Average temperature: 15 °C annually; the hottest in July of 27.6 °C and the coldest in January of 1.7 °C; maximum temperature of 39.8 °C and minimum 19 °C

The annual average precipitation is 1,030 mm, and about 45 percent of rainfall is concentrated in the summer. The rainy season known as "plum rain season" usually lasts from mid-June to late July. During this season, the plums are ripening, hence the name plum rain.

Cuisine

Yangzhou dishes may be one of the reasons why the people of Yangzhou are so infatuated with their city. They have an appealing color, aroma, taste and appearance. The original color of each ingredient is preserved after cooking, and no oily sauce is added, so as to retain the fresh savor of the food.

In Yangzhou all dishes, whether cheap or expensive, are elaborate. Cooks will not scrimp on their work, even with Zhugansi (stewed sliced dry bean curd), a popular dish that costs only a few yuan. Dry bean curd is made by each restaurant that serves it, so the flavor is guaranteed. The cook slices the 1-cm-thick curd into 30 shreds, each one paper-thin but none broken, and then stews them for hours with chopped bamboo shoots and shelled shrimps in chicken soup. In this way the dry bean curd shreds can soak up the flavor of the other ingredients, and the soup is clear but savory. It is not only Yangzhou cooks but also the ordinary people who are conscientious about cooking.

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 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.

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.

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.

在暑期旅行中我最惊险的一次旅行就是游青岛崂山。

8月10日早晨，我们全家三口人就随着旅游团出发了。在途中，导游不停地向我们介绍着青岛崂山。我激动地心情，盼望着马上就到。路途中，一股清新的空气扑鼻而来，使我忘记了疲劳，让我浑身充满了精神。

我第一眼看到的就是;石头上刻着的崂山二字。导游马上向我们游客解释它为什么能称为“崂山”那是因为它是一座山，“崂”字代表着崂山人民爱劳动，非常勤劳，所以称它为“崂山”。听了之后，我迫不及待地想马上出发，去游览崂山，看它有多么的美丽。

车子在行驶中突然停车了，过了一些时间，得知是前方两辆车撞在一起了，恶梦从此开始了，导游带领我们一行人顶着大太阳步行来到了一处高处，说是上去看一个什么庙，到崂山是来看道观的，看和尚庙干吗?而且还有好长一段爬山路，好多游客一致决定不去了，导游又来忽悠大家去一家小店用餐，反正吃了些什么我也忘了。

这一天我是又饿又累，是我此次旅程中最惊险的一天。

I have a pen friend, Li Xiang. Li Xiang is twelve years old and he comes from Beijing. We like the same magazine and get the information from it. He likes playing football as I do. We share our experience about playing football. For example, I was punished by mother because I was late for home after class. He once got No.1 of a football match in his city. Besides, we talk much about football clubs and stars. Sometimes, we discuss a passage in that magazine we both like. It’s really funny.

我有一个笔友，他的名字叫李想。他今年12岁，是北京人。我们都喜欢一本杂志，也是通过那本杂志认识的。李想和我一样，都喜欢踢足球。我们分享彼此关于踢足球的经历。比如，我曾因为踢球晚回家而被妈妈惩罚，他曾得到过市里足球比赛的第一名。此外，我们还会讨论足球俱乐部和足球明星等。有的时候，我们也会讨论我们喜欢的那本杂志上的文章。这真的很有趣。

it was my first day at school. i walked into the building where i was going to live ,and looked at door after door for my name. at last i found it. in the room there was already a student making his bed.

after we said"hello"to each other, he continued his work, paying no attention to me."what a stuck-up fellow,"i thought. i examined the room. it was not different in the fittings and furnishings from any other room i had seen. but it had been thoroughly cleaned by my new roommate, no doubt.

i looked at him. he was thin, short, and dark. his hair was like a bundle of straw. his dirty clothes and tired look were clearly signs of a long journey . his clothes were made of cheap cloth. the coat was too short and the trousers were too loose. and he wore a pair of rubber shoes , which were very unfashionable. he did not look like a smart senior student at all . "a yokel ,"i concluded.

the second time he spoke ,his accent told me that he was from the south"shall i help you to get your luggage from the office?"he asked.

i did not refuse since i really needed help. he was quick in movement."a good guy ,"i said to myself,"i will make friends with him."i hurried and caught up with him.
