The Mid-Autumn festival has many customs, such as eating mooncakes, but do you know the origin of the Mid-Autumn festival?

Legend before hou yi to the mountains to find friends to visit, to see the queen passing by here, is to the west to a pack of undead medicine. Hou yi came home to sow wife chang e, was temporarily handed the elixir to chang e. But this is a good disciple loose Mongolia saw, loose Mongolia is the salt of the earth.

Once hou yi to go hunting with a disciple, loose Mongolia pretended to be sick, stayed. Hou yi, loose Mongolia took their forced chang e to hand over medicine, nod to break into the room, the goddess of the moon there is no way, she suddenly brainwave, take medicine, gulps it down. Because of the goddess of the moon in the heart of caring husband, so become a fairy chang e flew to the nearest the moon.

Hou yi returned, he found the goddess of the moon in the sky and said to him: "tonight the moon will be round, what do you do in the evening in the northeast corner of room, a piece of dough until midnight we couple reunion." Hou yi do as the goddess of the moon said, in the middle of the night, the couple finally reunited. The goddess of the moon when two people part of hou yi said: "August 15 this day of year, you have to make the dough, until midnight to walk again after I come back." Come back every year, make the dough, waiting for the goddess of the moon. Later, this custom was inherited, developed into now the Mid-Autumn festival, the Mid-Autumn festival to eat moon cakes also became a custom.

I really like this myth, also loved the Mid-Autumn festival.

中秋节有许多习俗,比如吃月饼,但是你知道中秋节的由来吗?

传说以前后羿到山里去寻友访道,看见西王母路过此地,就向西王母求到一包不死药。回到家后,后羿舍不得撒下妻子嫦娥,就暂时把不死药交给嫦娥保管。但这正好被徒弟蓬蒙看到了,蓬蒙就起了坏心眼。

有一次后羿带着徒弟去打猎,蓬蒙假装生病,留了下来。后羿一走,蓬蒙就拿着宝刀闯进房间里逼嫦娥交出不死药,嫦娥没有办法,突然她灵机一动,把不死药一口吞了下去。因为嫦娥心里牵挂着丈夫,所以嫦娥飞到最近的月亮上成了仙。

后羿回来后,发现嫦娥在天上对他说:“今天晚上月亮会变圆,你晚上做一块面团在屋子东北角,等到午夜时我们夫妻二人就团圆了。”后羿按照嫦娥说的做,到了午夜,夫妻二人终于团圆了。两人离别时嫦娥对后羿说:“每年的8月15这天,你都要做好面团,等到午夜时分我回来了之后再走。”每年都做好面团,等着嫦娥回来。后来,这个习俗被大家继承下来,发展成为现在的中秋节,中秋节吃月饼也就成了习俗。

我非常喜欢这个神话,也非常喜爱中秋节。

我过过很多中秋节,其中,今年的中秋节最难忘。

我对中秋了解了一些:中秋节是农历八月十五,在一年秋季的中间,故称“中秋”。民间除了要举行赏月、吃月饼、祝福团圆等一系列活动,有些地方还有其他的庆祝活动。古今往来,人们常用“月圆”“月缺”来形容悲欢离合,唐代诗人李白的“举头望明月,低头思故乡”等诗句描写了月圆之夜诗人思念故乡的千古绝唱。

八月十五一大早,妈妈带我去超市买了一大堆肉和蔬菜。然后我们一家三口一起去乡下爷爷家过中秋。我到了爷爷家,看见大爷正在剥鲤鱼,那条鲤鱼很大,起码五斤以上,大娘正在洗菜。爸爸让我和姐姐一起去二爷爷家送月饼。

终于开饭了,爷爷把月饼和水果供到香案上。今天的菜非常在丰盛,有排骨、牛肉、鱼、西兰花,真让人垂涎三尺呀!我们一大家人一起吃饭真热闹呀!就连大爷家的狗也没少吃,又是吃骨头,又是吃肉,竟然把鱼刺也吃了。

然后,我们又分吃了月饼,我吃了许多。有蛋黄的、豆沙的、枣泥的、肉松的.......

啊!中秋节真好呀!只可惜今年的中秋没有月亮,唉!今年的中秋节太让人难忘了!

20__.9.8星期日 天气:晴 早晨,我刚刚起床,人就异常兴奋。因为今天是八月十五,一年一度的中秋节终于来了。今天一大清早,爸爸妈妈还有我就一起到超市买菜,月饼等食物。下午爸爸妈妈都在厨房里忙着杀鸡,杀鱼,切肉,切菜,忙的真是不亦乐乎。

吃晚饭的时候,我埋头吃饭,简直有点狼吞虎咽似的。不一会儿,我就第一个吃好了饭。我马上去做好了赏月的准备工作。

等啊等,我始终没能揭开月亮神奇的面纱。不禁让我想起了嫦娥奔月的故事,人们是为了纪念嫦娥才将八月十五定为了人们企盼团圆的中秋佳节。还令我想起了一首脍炙人口的名诗《静夜思》:床前明月光,疑是地上霜。举头望明月,低头思故乡。这首诗表现了诗人李白思念家乡的感情。使我不时想起了驻守边疆的战士在中秋节这个日子里不能与家人团聚。

这月亮怎么还不现出真面目,我想一睹书中所说:多么圆,亮,大,美丽的中秋月亮啊!我百思不得其解的去询问家长,原来因为今天的天气原因,没能如我所愿的看到中秋节的月亮,但是我还是十分开心。

中秋节的来历也有人说是当时老百姓们为推翻元朝的暴虐统治把”杀靴子,灭元朝;八月十五家家齐动手”的纸条放进月饼里互相传递!到了八月十五元朝被老百姓们推翻了.也许我们现在吃月饼是为了庆祝胜利的喜悦吧!也有人说中秋节是丰收的季节,是农民们体验享受丰收的`喜悦与高兴吧!

中秋节是快乐的,是团圆的象征,是充满喜悦的象征,让我们共同欢过这个有”意义”的”中秋节!” 吧!

Get together gather ……, family reunion

In China, Mid-autumn Day is considered to be a symbol of family reunion. On this day, all the family members gather together at home to celebrate this special occasion. Last year, I could not celebrate the festival with my family because I was in university. However, this special day left a deep impression on me.

I still remember the atmosphere of that evening. All the students who could not go back home assembled in our classroom, having a party to celebrate this traditional festival. We tried our best to show our own enthusiasm. As an ethnic minority, I performed a peacock dance, which received warm applause. After the two-hour party, we went out to the playground and sat together to appreciate the moon because it is a tradition on Mid-autumn Day. We ate moon cakes, played cards, and listened to romantic poems recited by one of our classmates. In that harmonious atmosphere, nobody felt lonely or homesick even though we were far away from our homes

Thanks to our classmates, I experienced such a colorful and interesting Mid-autumn Day at my university. Thus, I learned to value all the festivals I spent during my university life.

今天是中秋节,是我们中国特别重要的传统节日,是在每年的农历八月十五,晚上,全家人都坐在桌子旁,一边吃着月饼、葡萄、板栗等好吃的东西,一边赏月,今天晚上的月亮最圆了!

当我在吃月饼的时候,我就想,为什么有中秋节这个节日呢?这中秋节的来历是什么?经过查资料,我才知道,中秋节有三个来历,其中,这个来历最合实际:农历八月十五这一天恰好是稻子成熟的时刻,各家都拜土地神。中秋可能就是秋报的遗俗。

中秋节的来历知道了,那我们为什么要吃月饼呢?原来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,起义军如星火燎原。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,大者如圆盘,成为馈赠的佳品。以后中秋节吃月饼的习俗便在民间流传开来。

吃完月饼,我们这班小孩就要开始玩闹了,哪起荧光棒,把它敲亮,然后拼成自己喜欢的图案,戴在脚上,戴在手上和戴在头上等,在漆黑的夜晚里,在皎洁而象征着团圆的月亮之下闪烁着,美丽极了!我们还看见了许多孔明灯在天上飞,有些人还把自己的愿望写在灯上,飘向天空,祈求嫦娥能帮助他们达成愿望。

多么难忘的中秋节呀?可是,已经很晚了,该时候睡觉了,真的有点依依不舍,过了今晚,明天晚上的月亮可就没这么圆喽!

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 (156-87 b.c.), 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.(qiewo.com)

moon cakes came on sale shortly before festival time. in the past, one could get some cakes shaped like pagodas, others like a horse and rider, fish or animals. still others were decorated with the images of rabbits, flowers, or goddesses. there were a myriad of different fillings available: sugar, melon seeds, almonds, orange peel, sweetened cassia blossom, or bits of ham and preserved beef. the cakes are of the northern and southern styles, but the latter (also called guangdong-style) are the most popular and are available throughout the country.

the round shape of cakes just symbolizes not only the moon but also the unity of the family. therefore the mid-autumn festival is actually a day for family reunion.
