元宵节晚上，我和妈妈去最繁华的街心广场赏灯。

一出门，只见街上人头攒动，许多商店的门口都燃起了熊熊的旺火。人们都围在旺火旁一边暖着手，一边谈论着。马路两旁的树上都挂上一漂亮的彩灯，一盏盏小灯如星星般一闪一闪，我仿佛进入了童话的世界。每家商场的灯笼也是各式各样，有长的，有圆的，还有自动旋转的。这一切都组成了一个喜庆祥和的元宵之夜。

我们到了广场，广场上简直是人山人海，广场的北面搭起了一个气势雄伟的宫殿式彩门，彩门上画着各色图案的龙，还有许多欢蹦乱跳的兔子，在灯光的辉映下，它们一个个形态各异，栩栩如生。广场的南面是一帘由蓝色的串串灯组成的“瀑布”瀑布上面镶嵌着几个红色的大字：“祝原平人民幸福安康”灯光一闪一闪的，瀑布仿佛地流动，我不禁为设计者的高超技艺叹服。

突然，只听“砰”的一声，我循声望去，只见一束火光冲向天空，继而绽开了五颜六色的礼花。这一朵礼花如号令般将所有的烟火都引燃了，整个天空顿时变成了又一个灿烂的舞台，五光十色，形态各异，刚看清楚这一个，另一个又升起来了，令人眼花缭乱。轰隆声不绝于耳，仿佛是千军万马在混战，在人们情不自禁的惊叹声中，元宵之夜的大舞台推向了高潮!

烟火完了，我揉了揉酸困的脖子和妈妈依依不舍地回到家中，这个元宵节多么快乐啊!

The Lantern Festival which occurs on the 15-th day of the First Month of the Chinese Year marks the end of the New Years Holidays.

Lanterns are everywhere. A most interesting tradition is the posting of riddles called Lantern Riddles. Riddles are written on pieces of paper and posted on lanterns or wall.

We also went to see the lantern. Just into the gate square, you can see two high carried the head of the phoenix, our vendors neatly standing below, his mouth kept Shouting: "through pass by dont miss!" Go to the middle, they saw a large bowl and glaze color clear, really like the blue and white porcelain of Ming dynasty. The bottom of the bowl and there will be "catering" : scallions, chili, pepper and tomato. Bowl is in front of a small stage, the stage after eight long claws, commanding presence. Large bowl of the end of the three is the ice sculptures, all with classical style houses! Bowl on the left is an ox, tiger, Chinese zodiac sheep... Yi? Is this a mouse or a squirrel?

In the evening, we watched the fireworks. Oh! From iron square has been out two or three kilometers, this also proved a riddle: what is the worlds longest car car? A: a traffic jam. I am impatient, and mommy to get off. Fireworks are red, orange, yellow, green, purple, the most beautiful fireworks is also the biggest: bam, bam, bam, three golden fireworks, formed a golden tree, beautiful. And "golden waterfall", "color flower"...

This year, we gladly make the Lantern Festival.

元宵节到了，民间有三个习俗：一、吃元宵;二、看花灯;3、放烟花，今天我就在这儿说一说。

元宵有很多种口味：黑芝麻、蓝莓、巧克力等等，其中我最爱吃黑芝麻的了，外皮滑溜溜的(呵呵，听起来怎么那么像肥皂?)咬一口馅就出来了，不是那么甜得发腻，也没有那么淡。好吃!嘻……

我们也去看了花灯。刚入广场大门，可以看到两只高抬着头的凤凰，下面整齐地站着卖荧光棒的小贩，嘴里不停喊着：“走过路过别错过!”走到中间，看见一个大碗，釉色清晰明朗，真像明代的青花瓷!碗的下面还有还有“配餐”:大葱、辣椒、彩椒、西红柿。大碗的前面是一个小舞台，舞台后有八只张牙舞爪的长龙，威风凛凛。大碗的后面是三座冰雕，全是具有古典风格的房屋!大碗的左面是十二生肖有牛、虎、羊……咦?这是老鼠还是松鼠?

晚上，我们看了烟花。呵!从铁人广场一直排出两、三千米，这也验证了一个谜语：世界上最长的车是什么车?答：堵车。我不耐烦了，和妈咪下车看。烟花有红色、橙色、金黄色、绿色、紫色，那最好看的烟花也是最大的：砰，砰，砰，三个金黄色的烟花，形成了一个金黄色的树，漂亮极了。还有“黄金瀑布”、“变色花”……

今年，我们欢欢喜喜的闹了元宵节。

一年一度的元宵节终于到了，每到这一天家家户户门前都挂着红灯笼，而且吃饭之前还要放鞭炮，当然，晚饭也和以前不一样，要吃元宵。

大约五六点了，“怎没还不开饭呀。”在一旁的我说道。这时，爸爸说到楼下放鞭炮去，我便去看一看。爸爸把鞭炮挂到树枝上，拿起了打火机。“噼里啪啦”，鞭炮声响了起来。“开饭了，开饭了。”妈妈喊道。我端起了一碗元宵，品尝了一个，那种香喷喷的气味让我回味无穷。吃完元宵后，我便来到了厉山公园去看烟花，来到现场，还没有开始，我们又等了一会儿，烟花终于开始放了，因为离得太远了，看不清楚，我也挤进了人群之中，忽然，一位小孩子说了一个字，看。我仰起头来，只见天空中有很多一闪一闪的星星，噢，不对，星星哪有那么多颜色，这是烟花，大约五六秒过去了，颗颗流星般的烟花落了下来。哇，真是太逼真了。再看看大街上，真是好不热闹，车水马龙。

十点了，我也该回家了，但看着耀眼的烟花，还是不忍心走，又过去了五六分钟，我才依依不舍得离开了厉山公园。

元宵节是中国的传统节日之一，各民族的节日风俗不一样，我们家乡过元宵节热闹非凡，喜气洋洋。这天的活动内容真是丰富多彩啊，似乎要把所有喜庆都融入这一天。

元宵节这天到处张灯结彩，喜气洋洋。他别是舞龙、舞狮最热闹，龙是花布做的，有的用十个人舞，龙头前面有一颗珠子。这个珠子叫“龙珠”，龙舞起来时很好看，像真的的龙一样，观众不断叫好，有些观众去摸龙，他们说摸了龙能治百病，一年都不会生病，舞的人舞的满头大汗，观众拍手叫好。

说舞龙精彩，还有根有意思的，这天人们都要走出户外，到处游玩，亲戚们一起去游玩，听他们说，又完了以后一年都不会生病，不过我想人们出去走一走，还是有一定道理的，春节间吃的好，喝的好，人们出去活动活动，锻炼身体当然不会生病。过元宵节这天还有个最吸引人的节目——看烟花，6点钟时广场已经来了很多人了，都在那里寻找好的位置，7：00了，到处人山人海，只听见“呯”的一声，礼花爆开，照亮了天空，接着又放了一个礼花，礼花爆开的时候是紫色的，非常好看，接着把礼花爆到水面上，礼花在水面上跳舞，大家都高兴的欢呼起来，我们闻到了许多火药味，突然，一个礼花爆开了，绿色马上变成红色，又变成了黄色，隔了几秒，又发出了几发，精彩的时候到了，一个礼花爆开了，像一帘瀑布飞流直下，真是有一落千丈的感觉。焰火晚会结束了，但是人们还留恋在晚会之中。

家乡的元宵节真是个快乐的节日。

元宵节是中国的传统节日，早在2000多年前的西汉就有了。

据说是汉文帝时为纪念“平吕”而设。汉惠帝刘盈死后，吕后篡权，吕氏宗族把持朝政。周勃、陈平等人在吕后死后，平除吕后势力，拥立刘恒为汉文帝。因为平息诸吕的日子是正月十五日，此后每年正月十五日之夜，汉文帝都微服出宫，与民同乐以示纪念，并把正月十五日定为元宵节。

汉武帝时，“太一神”的祭祀活动定在正月十五。(太一：主宰宇宙一切之神)。司马迁创建“太初历”时，就已将元宵节确定为重大节日。

元宵节燃灯的习俗起源于道教的“三元说”。正月十五日为上元节，七月十五日为中元节，十月十五日为下元节。主管上、中、下三元的分别为“天”“地”“人”三官，天官喜乐，故上元节要燃灯。

另有一说是元宵赏灯始于东汉明帝时。明帝提倡佛教，听说佛教有正月十五日僧人观佛舍利，点灯敬佛的做法，就命令这一天夜晚在皇宫和寺庙里点灯敬佛，令士族庶民都挂灯。以后这种佛教礼仪节日逐渐形成民间盛大的节日。该节经历了由宫廷到民间，由中原到全国的发展过程。

元宵节的节期与节俗活动，是随历史的发展而延长、扩展的。就节期长短而言，汉代才一天，到唐代已为三天，宋代则长达五天，明代更是自初八点灯，一直到正月十七的夜里才落灯，整整十天。与春节相接，白昼为市，热闹非凡，夜间燃灯，蔚为壮观。特别是那精巧、多彩的灯火，更使其成为春节期间娱乐活动的高潮。至清代，又增加了舞龙、舞狮、跑旱船、踩高跷、扭秧歌等“百戏”内容，只是节期缩短为四到五天。

Lantern Festival is a Chinas traditional festival. It is celebrated on the fifteenth day of the first month of the lunar year.

I,antern Festival is one of the biggest holidays in China. Several days before Lantern Festival, people begin to make lanterns. Lanterns are made in the shape of different animals, vegetables, fruits and many, other things. While making lanterns people usually write riddles on lanterns. On the eve of Lantern Festival, all the lanterns are hung up.

On Lantern Festival people go outside to have a look at the lanterns and guess the riddles on the lanterns. Perhaps you call see some wonderful folk performances,Dragon Dance and Yangko. Everything is very interesting and everyone is very happy. Our life is rich and varied.

元宵节是中国的传统节日。这是在第一个月的第十五天庆祝农历年。

我,元宵节是中国最大的节日之一。在元宵节的前几天,几个人开始做灯笼。灯笼是由不同形状的动物,蔬菜,水果和许多其他的事情。做灯笼时,人们通常在上面写上谜语。在元宵节前夜,所有的灯笼都被挂起来。

在元宵节人们外出看看灯笼和猜灯笼上的谜语。也许你叫看见一些精彩的民间表演,舞龙和秧歌。一切都很有趣,每个人都很高兴。我们的生活是丰富多样的。

In the joy of the Lantern Festival, a tree, bamboo pole, beautiful lanterns are hung, far look like a beautiful flower, the modelling of each hand carry lanterns, in the darkness of the night, appear more bright beautiful, and huge lanterns, light up every dark corner.

Traffic on the road, everyone is permeated with a happy atmosphere, the side of the roads shouts and cries, let the streets become more lively. In this cold weather, people eat a bowl of bowl of warm dumplings, eating a chain of moments of squid balls, listening to the sweet songs and after night! But people still boiling, forgot the time.

Looked at the pairs of friends and partners together talking, then ask yourself the answer, my good friend! Where is she? Isnt forget time, or have a problem on the way, my heart try so hard, like a cat on hot bricks went around every corner, I couldnt find her, dont have time to listen to the beautiful lanterns. When I was about to give up, just saw, the front is not my friend? I quickly ran to the front of her, she handed me a cup of hot cocoa, and warm let me so moved, cold hand, and warm up.

在欢乐的元宵节中，树上、竹竿上，都挂着漂亮的花灯，远看彷彿是一朵朵美丽动人的花，每人手上提的造型花灯，在黑暗的晚上中，显得更加亮丽，而巨大的花灯，照亮了每个阴暗的角落。

路上车水马龙，每个人都洋溢着快乐的气氛，路边的吆喝声、叫卖声，让街道上变得更加热闹。在这寒冷的天气里，有人吃着一碗碗温热的汤圆、有人吃着一串串的花枝丸，听着一首首悦耳动听的歌曲，夜深了!可是人潮依旧沸腾，彷彿忘记了时间。

望着那一对一对的朋友及伴侣走在一起谈笑，便自问自答，我的好朋友呢!她在哪?是不是忘记时间，还是在路上遇到问题，我的心如热锅上的蚂蚁一样的着急，我跑遍了每个角落，就是找不到她，也没时间理会那漂亮的花灯。当我正要放弃时，才看见，前面不就是我的朋友吗?我飞快的跑到她面前，她递给我一杯温暖的热可可，让我感动不已，冰冷的手，也温暖了起来。

元宵在早期节庆形成过程之时,只称正月十五日、正月半或月望 ,隋以后称元夕或元夜.唐初受了道教的影响,又称上元,唐末才偶称元宵.但自宋以后也称灯夕.到了清朝,就另称灯节 .而在国外,元宵也以The Lantern Festival 而为人所知.各式各样的灯固然是元宵的主要特色,但在这一节日的发展史中,灯到隋朝(五八一─ ~ 六一九)才出现 ,算 是晚出的节目内容之一 ,而要到唐以后灯才成为元宵的主要标帜.一般认为元宵以汉武帝在正月上辛祠太一而开其端 .不 过祭拜太一不一定在正月而且并非年年举行.所以元宵的起源恐怕不能说在汉武帝之时.其他以元宵源自道教的上元节或佛 教的燃灯法会的说法也都没有充分的证据可以支持.如下文「习 俗」一节所述,元宵大约是从三世纪开始 ,慢慢形成的一种节庆 , 在南北朝发展成一固定的节日 , 但成为后世元宵主要节日的花灯和百戏要到隋炀帝才开其端,炀帝也是一个把元宵庆典官式化的皇帝.

“正月十五闹元宵”，每年春节过后的农历正月十五是我国的元宵节，又叫“灯节”和“上元节”，是中国自古以来就在民间流传的另一个已有2000多年历史的传统佳节。

元宵节起源于西汉王朝。相传汉惠帝死后飞扬跋扈的吕后篡权，任用了大量吕氏亲信，宦官当权。吕后死后，公元前179年，汉文帝在老忠臣协助下登基，博采众议，在正月十五这天，一举扫除了诸吕残余势力。因古代“夜”与“宵”同义。正月又叫“元月”，为了纪念正月十五这一天，汉文帝就将此日定为“元宵节”。从此，经隋至唐，到唐玄宗李隆基时，为显示大唐兴盛，国泰民安，逐沿用旧俗，每到“元宵节”这天，张灯结彩，欢庆狂欢，“一曲笙歌春如海，千门灯火夜似昼”，使这一节日更加兴盛。

节日期间，灯月交辉，游人如织，正如唐代诗人张说所描绘的：“花萼楼前雨露新，长安城里太平人。龙衔火树千灯焰，鸡踏莲花万岁春”。李商隐的诗曰：“月色灯光满帝城，香车宝辇溢通衢”，描绘了当时观灯时车水马龙的宏大场面。流传到宋代，在元宵之夜悬灯欢乐的规模更加盛况空前，花灯的装饰造型也更精美，灯节带给人们更多欢乐，更多光明。诗人苏东坡有诗云：“灯光家之有，笙歌处之楼”;大词人辛弃疾也曾有著名词作：“东风夜放花千树，更吹落，星如雨。宝马雕车香满路。风箫声动，玉壶光转，一夜鱼龙舞。”这些诗词描绘了当时元宵佳节满城花灯齐放，通宵达旦，歌舞笙乐的壮观场面。到了清代，据《京都风俗志》记载：清代太平年间每年元宵节都是：“通街委巷，灯光星布珠悬，皎如白昼”，“王孙贵客、士女儿童，倾城出游，谓之逛灯”，由此可见元宵节观灯的热闹场面。

到近代，这一习俗代代流传，至今仍经久不衰。老百姓家家户户都在门前和屋内悬挂彩灯、大红灯笼，全家团圆，围坐一起，观花赏灯吃元宵，象征着“团圆美满，丰收和睦”，同时这一天还标志着是春节欢乐的最后一幕，热热闹闹过完了“元宵节”，才算是真正过完了春节。

宋代诗人欧阳修诗曰：“去年元宵时，花市灯如昼。月上柳梢头，人约黄昏后。”说明在这灯好月明人团圆的喜庆佳节里，亲朋好友相约团聚，早已是民间庆春节的重要习俗。如果在团聚时捧去一把鲜花，携带上一个花篮，让美丽娇艳的鲜花送来一个吉祥幸福的欢乐好运，会给朋友相聚增添无比欢乐的心情，这时应该选用寓意团团美美、如意祥瑞的花材，如火红的火鹤花、满枝悬挂形似红爆竹的炮仗花、鲜艳的孔雀草、象征明媚春天光明的银芽柳、闪烁洁白繁星的满天星等，都会展现出一片祥和安乐的氛围，为亲朋好友送去一年吉祥幸福的祝愿。

The chinese new year is now popularly known as the spring festival because it starts from the begining of spring (the first of the twenty-four terms in coodination with the changes of nature). its origin is too old to be traced.

Several explanations are hanging around.

All agree, however, that the word nian, which in modern chinese solely means year, wasoriginally the name of a monster beast that started to prey on people the night before the beginning of a new year.

One legend goes that the beast nian had a very big mouth that would swallow a great many people with one bite. People were very scared.

One day, an old man came to their rescue, offering to subdue nian.

To nian he said, i hear say that you are very capable, but can you swallow the other beasts of prey on earth instead of people who are by no means of your worthy opponents? so, it didswallow many of the beasts of prey on earth that also harrassed people and their domestic animals from time to time.

中国的传统佳节——元宵节就要到了。正月是农历的元月，古人称夜为“宵”，所以称正月十五为元宵节。正月十五日是一年中第一个月圆之夜，也是一元复始，大地回春的夜晚，人们对此加以庆祝，也是庆贺新春的延续。元宵节又称为“上元节”。按中国民间的传统，在这天上皓月高悬的夜晚，人们要点起彩灯万盏，以示庆贺。出门赏月、燃灯放焰、喜猜灯谜、共吃元宵，合家团聚、同庆佳节，其乐融融。下面就向大家介绍一些元宵节常用词语的英文说法。

Mother said: "this is called LuJi, is to worship the gods." We as the stream of people came to lees ancestral hall, zhou ji, ancestor worship, then lanterns to be brought back to the temple. The lanterns ceremony is over.

Our country is one of the ancient civilizations in the world, traditional culture, rich and colorful, but I still like our hometown lanterns.

在我的家乡永嘉，每逢正月十五都要提花灯，祈求来年风调雨顺，学业进步，平平安安，生意兴隆……

夜幕降临，伴随着一声鞭炮声，各家各户的小孩、大人们在灶神前点上蜡烛，祈福，然后，我们提着花灯，急急忙忙地家里出发，到庙前集中，接着，我们提着花灯走走停停，不知不觉来到了山中的小路上，大人们有说有笑，路边的鞭炮声打得更是响亮，我们看着一束束光芒“呼”地冲上天空，到了半空中，像花儿一样绽开了笑脸，有红色的，有紫色的，还有黄色的，美丽极了!还有的鞭炮打得可响了，“噼噼啪啪”的，听说“噼噼啪啪”的谐音就是“平平安安”的意思，而且，要放的越响越好，我们又看见家家户户门前都摆着羊肉、牛肉和折好的金元宝等等，我问妈妈：“为什么要在问口放这些东西?”妈妈说：“这叫‘路祭’，是为了祭拜神灵用的。”我们随着人流来到李氏宗祠,周记，拜过祖先，然后把花灯提回庙里。提花灯仪式就结束了。

我国是世界文明古国之一，传统文化数不胜数，丰富多彩，但我还是喜欢我们家乡的花灯。

There is an old saying well said: "the fifteenth day of the first make the lantern". This sentence vividly reflects the most obvious feature of the Lantern Festival, right, the Lantern Festival is the relatives and friends from all over the world come here to gather together with joy and eat a bowl of steaming dumplings, together to watch the street people held a grand dragon parade, viewing by ordinary creation of song and dance show, I appreciate the sparkling in the night sky.

Our family in the home early to eat dumplings, and then together down the street to watch lanterns. Just come to the road, a huge dragon dance team also happened to pass by, dragon uncles spirit, straightened his spine, step to fly, like a hits the ageless humans, will otherwise lifeless dragon dance to life. Team, gongs, can see people, cheered for it all, applauded. Moonlight cascaded like water spilled on the lawn, all things like cast a veil of mystery, inspiring -- that is YiZhanZhan colorful lanterns broke the silence. Look, on the other side of the twelve acoustic xiao lanterns is especially remarkable. Look, 12 acoustic xiao eldest brother - rats are proud to say hello to everyone; Diligent in the old cow is unconvinced why mice when the boss; A loud roar fierce tiger; Scared rabbit hide aside; Fierce dragon is off in the sea of clouds; While the small snake in the water happily; The horse is running on the endless prairie; The sheep are called "baa baa", little monkey mischievously climbed to the tree to pick a peach to eat; Big cock was "oh oh" quote tolls; This year is the year of the dog, little of course not the dog, you see, it is alive happily; While the pig to sleep in late in the nest!

Open multicolored fireworks in the sky, we reluctantly left as a family.

有句古话说得好：“正月十五闹元宵”。这句话生动地体现出了元宵节最大的特点，对，元宵节就是亲戚朋友从五湖四海赶来欢乐地聚在一块儿，吃上一碗热气腾腾的汤圆，结伴到街上观看人们举行的盛大的舞龙游行，观赏由平民老百姓创作的歌舞节目，欣赏那夜空中的光彩夺目的火树银花。

我们一家人在家中早早地吃好了汤圆，然后一块儿到街上去赏花灯。刚走到路口，一支庞大的舞龙队伍也恰巧经过，舞龙的叔叔们精神抖擞，挺直了腰板，箭步如飞，好似一棵棵不老的青松，将那原本毫无生气的巨龙舞得活灵活现。队伍所到之处，锣鼓喧天，所见之人，都为之喝彩，拍手叫好。月光如流水一般泻在草坪上，一切事物都像蒙上了一层神秘的面纱，令人浮想联翩，是一盏盏五彩缤纷的花灯打破了这份沉静。看，那边的十二声肖花灯尤其引人注意。瞧，十二声肖的大哥—老鼠正在骄傲地向大家问好;勤勤恳恳的老牛正在不服气为什么老鼠当老大呢;凶猛的老虎大吼了一声;吓得小兔躲到了一边;勇猛的巨龙正在云海里腾飞;而小蛇则在水里欢快地游;马儿正在一望无际的大草原上奔跑;羊儿则在“咩咩”叫，小猴子淘气地爬到树上摘桃吃;大公鸡正在“喔喔”地报鸣;今年是狗年，当然少不了小狗了，你瞧，它正高兴地活蹦乱跳呢;而小猪则在窝里睡懒觉呢!

天空中一朵朵礼花开放，我们一家人依依不舍地离去了。

Yuanxiao, another climax of Spring Festival. The fifteenth day of the first decorated everywhere, the whole street is like the in-laws, the flourishing and lively, lively and beautiful. The famous shop all hang hundreds of shapes, greatly small lights. There are notable, rounded corner lamp, lotus flower lamp, red lanterns... In that day, my parents and I go to the Lantern Festival.

One into the street, he saw a crowded crowd; Smell the fragrance of the delicious food; Heard a loud noise. We "crawling" slowly, in the crowd for a while in the United States, only beautiful shape, manufacture fine lantern appeared in front of my eyes. My parents and I went into it, a variety of lanterns are painted on the "water margin", a dream of red mansions, romance of The Three Kingdoms, all of the story "journey to the west". And make me the deepest impression is notable.

Each horse lamp together seems to be energizes is very spectacular. Version is using the red paper. Before the horse hoof, the horse up, horsetail hang, like really. Lifelike, vivid, let a person see the admiration. Lights on the two generous male, two people sitting in the restaurant - the legs, hands holding a glass.

Then, I saw my favorite link - guess lantern riddles. I opened the paper bag out lantern riddle topic: adding water into the oceans it into vegetation of flowers. I touched his chin, frowning, chanting in the heart "into a sea of water, it become a grass flowers?" Is it "yes"? Not ah! Gal. Some water is not a word! I thought for a moment. Suddenly flashes, the emergence of a "every" words in mind, oh. "Every" plus three drops of water is the "sea", and "wood" is "mei"! Why didnt I think! I quote us answers loudly. This is really a magic, they rhyme!

In these festival, one of my favorite festival is the Lantern Festival, because this holiday only lifelike lanterns and people are thinking of lantern riddle.

元宵上市，春节的又一个高潮到了。正月十五到处张灯结彩，整条大街像是办喜事，红火而热闹，热闹而美丽。有名的铺子都挂出几百盏形状各异、大大小小的灯来。有走马灯、圆角灯、莲花灯、大红灯笼……就在那天里，我和爸爸妈妈去逛了灯会。

一进街道，就看见了拥挤的人海;闻到了美味佳肴的香味;听见了喧闹的嘈杂声。我们在人群中慢慢地“蠕动”着，美国一会，一只只外形美观，制造精细的灯笼出现在我的眼前。我和爸爸妈妈走进前去，各色各样的花灯上都彩绘着《水浒传》、《红楼梦》、《三国演义》、《西游记》的所有故事。而令我印象最深的是—走马灯。

一只只马形灯放在一起似乎是万马奔腾十分壮观。走马灯是用印红的纸折出来的。马的前蹄上扬，马头向上，马尾垂下，像是真的一样。栩栩如生，形态逼真，让人看了赞叹不已。灯上映着两位豪爽之雄，两人坐在酒家中盘着腿，双手举着酒杯痛饮。

接着，我便看到了我最爱的环节—猜灯谜。我打开纸袋拿出了灯谜的题目：加水变成汪洋大海，加木变成草木花香。我摸着下巴，皱着眉头，心里念叨着“加水变成汪洋大海，加木变成草木花香是什么呢?”难道是“对”?不是呀!加三点水就不是字了呀!我思索片刻。突然灵光一闪，脑海中出现了一个“每”字，哦对了。“每”加上三点水就是“海”，加上“木”就是“梅”啊!我怎么没想到呢!我大声地报出答案。这题真是出神入化，暗藏玄机啊!

在这些节日中，我最喜欢的节日是元宵节，因为这个节日有一只只惟妙惟肖的灯笼和耐人思考的灯谜。

The fifteenth day of the first month is a traditional festival of our

Chinese nation. At this moment, my heart has been hooked by the rich dinner. Who

makes today the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first month!

"The moon is round and round on the 15th day..." this classic song is

around my ears again. Listen... At this time, I have come to my grandparents

house: "Grandpa, grandma, happy Lantern Festival!"

"Wow" my eyes fly away with the fragrance and catch a large piece of meat

again, hee hee!

After dinner, dusk shrouded everything around us, so we decided to go to

Swan square to enjoy the moon.

As I walk, the moon also walks. If I walk fast, it also walks fast; I walk

slowly, so does it. As soon as I looked up, a round, large and high disc hung in

the air, as if it were the most dazzling star in the sky. The surrounding stars

were not shy and comparable with the moon. It seemed to say, "you see, you have

dominated all the glory of the 15th, how can you let me shine!"

Suddenly, my eyes were fascinated by the fascinating riddle guessing. I

quickly took my family to join the fun.

"There is a prize if you guess right, there is a prize if you guess right!"

At this time, my uncle opened his voice and attracted people heartily. Before

waiting for my uncle to finish, the visitors had already begun to grab

mysteries. Some secretly turned over reference books, others discussed with each

other, or enlightened, and happily competed for prizes. It was so lively!

As the night gets deeper and deeper, there are more and more people playing

in the square. Adults and children gather together, like the vivid pictures of

the master and the hot partners, spreading their troubles and playing

"Crazy".

Suddenly, I dont know where there is a strong smell of sleeves. Oh, my

mother peeled off this sweet and delicious thing, and the juice penetrated from

it. Wow, its so fragrant! I quickly took a bite, um, a word: "incense"! Its

still slowly aftertaste after eating!

It was getting late. I looked at the people who were playing hide and seek,

playing balloons, guessing lantern riddles and setting off fireworks

正月十五，是我们中华民族的传统节日，此时此刻，我的心早已被那丰盛的晚餐给勾去了谁让今天是正月十五元宵节呢!

“十五的月亮圆又圆……”这首经典歌曲又在我耳边围绕，听着听着……这时已来到了我的爷爷奶奶家了：“爷爷，奶奶，元宵节快乐!”

“哇”我的眼随着香味飞去，捞上一大块肉再说，嘻嘻!

吃过晚饭，夜暮便笼罩了周围的一切，我们便决定去天鹅广场赏月。

我一边走，月亮也一边走，我走快，它也走快;我走慢，它也走慢。一抬头，一个又圆又大又高的大圆盘吊在空中，仿佛是天上最耀眼的一颗明星，周围的星星也不羞涩，与月亮互相媲美，仿佛在说：“你看，十五的光彩全被你一个霸了，怎么也得让我沾光沾光!”

突然，我的眼被吸人眼睛的猜灯谜给迷住了，我连忙拉着家人去凑热闹。

“猜对有奖，猜对有奖!”此时，叔叔拉开了嗓门，尽情地招引人们，没等位叔叔说完，游玩的人们早已开始抢迷谜了，有的偷偷翻工具书，有的则互相探讨，或开窍了，高高兴兴地竞换奖品去了，好热闹!

夜越来越深，广场的游玩人们也愈多，大人小孩们交集在一起，像大师手下的生动图画，又好似热火朝天的伙伴，在洒开烦恼“疯”玩。

突然，不知从哪里飘来一股浓浓的袖子香味，哦，原来妈妈剥开了这香甜可口的东西，果汁从里面渗透出来，哇，好香呀!我连忙咬上了一口，嗯，一个字：“香”!吃完了还在慢慢回味呢!

时候不早了，我又望了望正在捉迷藏，打气球，猜灯谜，放烟火的人们……

回到家里，我们迫不及待地把汤圆煮好。吃着我亲手做的汤圆，又甜又香，味道好极了！原来自己动手是最快乐的。

Festival of Lanterns.I spent the Festival of Lanterns with my grandparents this year.

My family went to my grandparents‘ home and had dinner with them.We had lots of sweetdumplins.After the dinner, my grandparents and I went out to play fireworks.

We had a very good time together.

On the occasion of the Lantern Festival, there is a festive atmosphere

everywhere. You see, guessing lantern riddles and setting off fireworks... There

are all kinds of strange activities, ranging from astronomy to geography. Now

Ill take you to see the fireworks party!

Through the bustling trail, we came to the sparkling lake. We waited

anxiously and patiently. As time passed, more and more people were crowded. The

crowd could not see the head from the West and the tail from the north. There

were a sea of people. Some sat on stone chairs, some bent over, some leaned

forward and backward, and some stood on tiptoe. There are white haired

grandfathers, young people with clear eyebrows and embroidered eyes, and

children of four or five years old.

After a long time, just listen to the bang, strange flowers appear in the

sky, and the exciting fireworks party begins! People were suddenly silent. Then,

the sky appeared colorful, scrambling, from yellow to purple, from red to blue,

from blue to white, very beautiful! Colorful, large and small fireworks are

reflected on the sparkling lake, as if fish are also setting off fireworks in

their homes! Some of the wonderful flowers in the sky are green grass, some are

peach red and plum white. It is graceful and beautiful, as if it smells

fragrant.

"Boom", the air exploded one after another "Phalaenopsis", which was very

realistic. After a while, the orchids turned into red lanterns, slowly down and

straight into the water. White snakes soar into the sky, and the "s" walking

method is attractive. Small boats shot out of the lake and stood gracefully on

the lake, as if warships were coming to us, solemn and solemn. Suddenly, a

"meteor shower" appeared in the sky. The white "meteor shower" turned the night

into the day. The houses two kilometers away from me were obvious. It was as

dense as a cobweb, like the end of the world, and the stars crashed into the

earth. Then, colorful lines burst out on the ground and made a "crackling"

sound, like setting off firecrackers. Suddenly, the earth became a colorful

world.

Suddenly, a crystal clear waterfall appeared by the lake. The waterfall was

different. It was condensed by countless small white spots. It was very

lifelike. The waterfall rolled down and emitted wisps of clear smoke, like

Penglai Fairy Island floating on the sea.

Finally, flowers of various forms appeared in the sky, with a deafening and

soul stirring sound.

Todays party is over. The fireworks parties are more and more wonderful

again and again, which let me see the prosperity and development of science and

technology in the motherland.

元宵佳节之际，处处洋溢着喜庆的气氛。你瞧，什么猜灯谜、什么放烟火呀……各种各样，稀奇古怪的，上至天文，下至地理的活动都有，现在我就带你去看看烟火晚会吧!

穿过熙熙攘攘的小道，便到了波光粼粼的湖边，我们焦急而又耐心地等待着，时间一分一秒地过去了，人越来越多，最后挤挤挨挨，人群从西望不见头，从北望不见尾，人山人海，人声鼎沸，有的坐在石椅上，有的弯腰，有的前俯后仰，有的踮着脚尖望着。有白发苍苍的老爷爷，有眉清目绣的青年人，有四五岁的小孩。

过了许久，只听嘣的一声，天空中出现奇花异卉，激动人心的烟火晚会开始了!人们顿时雅雀无声。接着，天空出现了万紫千红、争先恐后、由黄变紫、由红变蓝、由蓝变白，美极了!花花绿绿，大大小小的烟花倒映在波光粼粼的湖面上，仿佛鱼儿们也在它们的家园里放烟花呢!天空中的奇花有的绿草如茵，有的桃红李白。婀娜多姿，美不胜收，仿佛清香扑鼻，馨香阵阵。

“轰”的一声，空中炸开一朵朵“蝴蝶兰”，逼真极了。过了一会儿，只见兰花变成了一盏盏红灯笼，缓缓而下，直入水面。一条条白蛇直冲天，“S”走法引人看。湖边射出一条条小船，亭亭玉立在湖面，仿佛一艘艘战舰向我们开来，庄严肃穆。顿时天空出现了“流星雨”，白花花的“流星雨”把夜晚照成了白天，离我二公里远的房屋都显而易见，它密如蛛网，好象世界末日，群星们撞向地球。接着地上又冲出一条条五颜六色的线，还发出“噼里啪啦”的响声，好似放鞭炮，霎时，大地都成了五彩缤纷的世界。

忽然，湖边出现了一条晶莹剔透的瀑布，那瀑布与众不同，它是又无数个小白点凝聚而成的，逼真无比，那瀑布滚滚而下，还冒出一缕缕清烟，有如浮在海面的蓬莱仙岛。

最后，天空中又出现了千姿百态的繁花，响声震耳欲聋，惊心动魄。

今天的晚会结束了，一次又一次的烟火晚会一次比一次的精彩，让我看到了祖国的科技繁荣、发达。
