春节真有趣的英语20篇

春节在大家的期盼中，终于姗姗来迟。到处都是一片热闹的景象。

大年三十，爸爸叫我一起贴春联，我对爸爸说：“春联应该贴得方方正正的吗？”爸爸说：“你真聪明！”我帮爸爸扶着凳子，在下面做“总指挥”。在我的协助下，我们把春联贴好了。我又看到许多人在贴春联，内容都是吉祥如意、歌颂祖国之类的，比如“十分春色，万里鹏程”、“花开富贵，竹报平安”、“人勤春早，民富国强”……

回到家里，爸爸又准备贴“福”字，他也把字贴得方方正正。我说：“福字应该倒过来贴，福气才会到啊！”爸爸妈妈都夸我的见识比以前多了，我很开心。

春节贴春联真有趣，我期待着明年春节的到来。

每当春节快到了，大家就开始忙着大扫除、买年货……等等。其中我认为最忙的要算是大扫除，因为大扫除要打扫，我平常就不喜欢打扫，但是今年我有帮忙擦楼梯和打扫客厅。我问妈妈为什么要大扫除，妈妈跟我说大扫除的意义不只有打扫干净，还有除旧布新的意思。

在除夕这一天，我很早就起床了，一起床后我就跟妈妈说我要去外公家。我在外公家和我的表弟和表妹一起玩，这时，大舅舅回来了，我的表哥也回来了，我们玩得很开心。到了晚上，爸爸带我们全家去奶奶家吃年夜饭，吃年夜饭的时候，桌上有许多的山珍海味，其中我最喜欢丸子汤。吃完年夜饭之后，我的小堂弟和小堂妹要表演唱歌，虽然他们发音不标准，但是我还是觉得他们很棒。

大年初一的早上，我睡的比较晚，我一起床时就发现爸爸在煮饭，我问爸爸为什么要煮，爸爸说等一下叔叔会来，我觉得非常兴奋，因为又可以和堂弟玩。过年期间，我最喜欢大年初二，你知道为什么吗?因为一早我们全家就去外公家，一到外公家，我便马上去找表弟妹玩。到了中午，舅舅订的年饭送来了，我们大家就开始吃饭，吃饱饭，我们就开始玩牌。

过完年，我又大一岁了，我希望明年红包可以多一点钱，也希望下学期我的功课可以进步，自己更懂事，更希望新的一年大家都身体健康、平平安安、万事如意。

今年春节二爸二妈带着我两年未见面的堂弟乐乐从南京回来，我们全家过了一个团圆年，我和弟弟玩得乐翻了天，爷爷奶奶被我们吵昏了头，有趣的事还真不少。 不过给我印象最深的是照全家福这件事了。

大年初一全家人起了个大早，吃了饺子就分别乘坐两辆汽车从户县浩浩荡荡地往西安照相馆进发了，上午9点钟我们已经站到了西安照相馆的大厅。嗬，这里真是人山人海，一派节日景象。老人们高兴地聊着天，孩子们兴奋地在人流中穿梭，照相馆的工作人员更是一路小跑地忙来忙去，或者给大家介绍照片的规格，或者帮忙挑选衣服，或者为照相的人化妆，所有的人都是一身新衣，喜气洋洋，欢声笑语充满了大厅。

在工作人员的帮助下，我们一行八人全都换上了漂亮的唐装。爷爷奶奶的红色唐装格外耀眼，一下子显得年轻了许多。摄影师叔叔认真地给我们摆弄造型，调配位置，我和弟弟也暂时安静下来，很听话地配合着。谁知照到一半，摄影室的门忽然开了，呼啦啦闯进来20多个人组成的一个大家庭。原来大厅人太多，实在占不下了，这个大家庭是排在我们后面照相的，不得已只好进来等。有了陌生人看着照相我和弟弟一下子活跃了起来，再也站不住了，不再听摄影师叔叔的指挥，爸爸的训斥也无济于事，最后只好在笑闹声中草草收场。 妈妈选照片出来有点遗憾，说不太理想，尤其是我们两个东倒西歪，挤眉弄眼，实在不好选，爸爸安慰说：“全家福的意义就是团圆，只要大家都在一起就很好了”。

我觉得爸爸说得很对。

1月17日，我们一家人去老竹镇沙溪村参加“莲都区农家乐春节风俗体验活动”，这次活动让我感受到了浓浓的过年的氛围。

一到沙溪村，看到路旁彩旗飘飘，人头攒动，把小路挤得水泄不通。人们拎着年货，脸上洋溢着幸福的笑容，好一派过年的景象！忽然网 ，一股香气扑鼻而来，循着香味走去，我们来到了做米糖的体验地点。只见师傅将糖油倒进锅中煮沸，再将炸好的脆米倒入锅中搅拌，之后将这些脆米放入一个模具中压平，用刀切成一块块，让风将其晾干，甜甜的米糖便做好了。

沿着乡村小道继续向前，又看见炸番薯片的地点，我们自然也一饱了口福。接着，我们来到了包粽子的场地。已有很多人在那儿包了。我小心翼翼地拿起粽皮，开始时对粽皮束手无策，后来经过一位大娘的指导，终于学会了这门技术。我先把它折成锥形，再往里面放糯米、咸菜和猪肉，然后将粽皮包严实了，最后用棕榈绳绑住，就大功告成了。

这次活动还有许许多多的体验项目，如打麻糍、炊糖糕、炸爆米花……其中我觉得最有趣的还是磨豆浆了。走近磨豆浆的体验场地，只见一群小朋友围着一个石磨议论纷纷。我好奇地走过去，原来是农家磨豆浆用的石磨。我上前抓住木头长柄，用尽全身力气向前推，石磨还是纹丝不动。我百思不得其解，难道是我的力气还不够大？我正纳闷着，一旁的爸爸向我讲解推石磨的要领。首先抓住长柄，向逆时针方向推动，推到超过二分之一圈时，身子向后仰，将长柄使劲往后拉，石磨就一圈一圈地转动了，当石磨里的黄豆不够时，再往石磨的孔里加黄豆。瞧！沿着石槽滑至碗中的乳白色液体便是豆浆的原身。再把这些液体放入大锅里煮，煮出来的就是香喷喷的豆浆了。经过一段时间的练习，我终于掌握了技巧。我还品尝了自己的劳动成果，觉得这豆浆分外的甜。

Far and away the most important holiday in China is Spring Festival， also known as the Chinese New Year。 To the Chinese people it is as important as Christmas to people in the West。 the dates for this annual celebration are determined by the lunar calendar rather than the GREgorian calendar， so the timing of the holiday varies from late January to early February。

[描写春节的初中英语作文

With the bursts of firecrackers. The celebration of the Spring Festival comes at last.

However, at the same time, people play a lot of waste. According to the survey, the waste of the Spring Festival is 10 times as much as usual (non holiday). These figures are really to be counted, and you can imagine how amazing it is. So, at the same time, we do not forget to save.

The waste of food is especially serious during the Spring Festival. The new year, we have to prepare enough things in the supermarket to buy special purchases for the Spring Festival, convenient to move home; there are people who work units, friends. The source of special purchases for the Spring Festival not put, the home refrigerator, but on the outside. But just a few days later, the weather is getting warmer. The thing broke out immediately, couldnt eat it, and had to throw it away. There are also years of night meal, in order to be rich, all families have bought a lot of things, but they can eat very little, and finally there is a lot of surplus. “ more than &rdquo in years; a good omen, but the remaining things, but in the case of no one, were poured into the ditch or the roadside. New years festival is the peak of consumption. At this time for the Spring Festival shopping, eat and drink, do special purchases for the Spring Festival can. However, do not forget to save in the consumption, to eliminate waste.

In addition to the waste of food, the waste of the new year is very serious. In our lives, there is often a waste of electricity. As far as our family is concerned, thirty nights in the big year, the lanterns are hung up on my house, all night, and how much electricity is consumed. Also, in order to have a good sign, on the thirty night houses are the lights lit, night lights, electricity consumption as can be imagined how much.

There is a lot of waste in the Spring Festival. For example, gifts are given during the Spring Festival, which also presents the waste of gift packaging. Some units send gifts to employees in the new year, and everything is covered with beautiful packaging. It is too big to take home, but when the packing is removed, the original thing is much smaller. These packages are about half of the space, and most of them are new, so its a bit wasteful. Many shopping malls, supermarkets can see, many for the gift of people in the selection of those exquisite gift boxes. There is only two bottles of wine in a box that looks like the size of a normal TV screen. A lot of gifts are packed in layer after layer, so people dont know what it is inside. Its even doubted that the box is worth more than the inside. During the Spring Festival, the packing box is the most important time. It did cause a lot of waste of paper and plastic.

“ save the resources, start from me. ” to eliminate waste, the key is to start from yourself, start from small things, start from now!

Chinese New Year is coming soon. I am very happy! I can put on my new clothes. We can get a lot of lucky money. We can eat a big dinner. We can do many interesting things. I expect Chinese New Year coming.

A lunar New Year, no doubt, is sound, taste and township.

A New Years eve firecrackers. Melody in the New Year, fireworks is low and grand drums, heavy yet explosive, accompanied by a large umbrella of scattering flowers, jinlong fall and arc of the rainbow, here every corner of the flower, a pair of, a group of cheng fang, a piece, a world, in a sudden the incomparable luster. And on the square table, and celebrate the applause, light spirit is ringing, can not help but think of "harps friend" -- it is natural to performance, the smile of gentle feeling let everyone around without his joy. Then a sound clear gong, it is in the middle of the night the cheer of the New Year, is not so short but lingering sound waves, times, stretches, like a stream, seeped into next year. In the end, a string of bells sound, it so mysterious, as if the passage of time, is at the end of the sea and the nien beast roar.

Through every form, and to have bouts of aroma. Like bacon that hard sweet, like the mutton soup hot sweet, like the natural aroma of coarse grains like steamed bread fresh incense, sweet like a sausage chewy, like dumplings a pack of sweet juice, like nuts, crisp sweet, like good old 994 stuffed sweet ChunChun... The fragrance, as they themselves. A wisp of fragrance, flavor, a dish, a table, a handful of happiness. I like dumplings, white white fat, quietly lying on the soup. It successfully, that sweet thick sesame paste, now a love heart.

JianJu the most popular cartoon "bears in the New Years day" in a situation: even if a lumberjack, also know that mothers dumplings, dads wine, are looking forward to the calendar page, end the arrival of the New Years eve. Whether its cold rime, shaking winter bamboo shoot, a speeding train, shimmering bright lights... Township, there is only one, let the wanderer to gallop tirelessly.

But you have such a scene: in the mobile phone clicking, hands of quick-frozen dumplings immodesty slide to the ground, fell to pieces, like a boom ray reminds you, want to travel to Hong Kong this year Spring Festival. So, the sound? Taste? Township?

一个春节，无疑便在于声、味、乡。

爆竹声中一岁除。过年的曲谱中，烟花是低沉而隆重的大鼓，重重的一声声爆响，伴随着大伞的散花、金龙的出落和弧形的彩虹，在这儿的每个角落一朵、一双、一群、一片、一世界地盛放，在瞬间迸发出无与伦比的光彩。八仙桌上的谈笑，与庆祝的掌声，轻灵清脆，不禁联想到“琴瑟友之”——它自然是尽情的琴声了，笑的柔和让周围的每个人都情不自己地欢欣起来。然后是一声清亮的锣响，它就是午夜时分新年的那一阵欢呼，虽短，但余音袅袅，不绝如缕，一直绵延着，就如一条溪，汩汩地流向明年。最终，有一串编钟声，它那么神秘，好像是时间的流逝，是沧海尽头年兽的咆哮。

走过每一个门洞，都有一阵阵的香飘来。像是腊肉那硬硬的香，像是羊肉汤那热乎乎的香，像是粗粮天然的香，像是馒头新鲜出炉的香，像是香肠有嚼劲的香，像是饺子一包汁的香，像是坚果干脆的香，像是陈年佳994酿醇醇的香……这香味，就如它们本身。一缕香，一丝味，一盘菜，一桌人，一捧幸福。我最喜欢汤圆，白白胖胖，安静地躺在汤里。它圆满的外表下，那甜稠的芝麻馅，宛然一颗爱心。

简举最红的动画片《熊出没之过年》中的一情景：就算一个伐木工，也懂得，妈妈的饺子，爸爸的酒，都是期待着日历的那一页，岁末除夕的到来。不管是冰冷的雾淞，晃动的冬笋，飞驰的火车，灿亮的灯光……乡，只有一个，让游子不倦地飞奔。

但是你的身边有这样的场面吗：在手机的点击声中，手里的速冻汤圆不慎滑落在地，跌得粉碎，像轰雷般提醒了你，今年春节要去香港旅游。如是这样，声呢?味呢?乡呢?

“春节到了，春节到了。”春节是中华民族的传统节日。

春节就像一把刷子，刷去了去年的脏，环卫工人把街道打扫的干干净净，每家每户都把家里弄得整整齐齐，门口挂着红红的大灯笼，贴着喜庆的对联。

春节的时候我们要吃团年饭、包饺子、放鞭炮、收压岁钱……这些都是我最喜欢的事了。

放鞭炮的时候可美了，五颜六色的烟花像绽放的花朵挂在天空，美丽极了，地下全是孩子们的欢呼声;收压岁钱可以把钱攒起来给自己买喜欢的、需要的东西;吃团年饭最有意义了，桌上摆满了各种各样好吃的，一家人聚在一起，老人家看着自己儿孙满堂，一家人在一起共享天伦之乐。晚辈会借此机会向父母的养育之恩表达感激之情。

随着鞭炮的响声我们迎来了新的一年，新年就是一支巨大的彩色笔，我要带着它创造更美好的明天。我要把天空画的更蓝，把草儿画的更绿，把鸟儿的歌声画的更动听，把人们的身体画的健健康康，把心情画的更加愉快，把孩子们画的更加活泼可爱……

Spring Festival is the most important festival for Chinese people. The Spring Festival is very exciting, especially on the eve of the Spring Festival.

春节对于中国人来说是最重要的节日。在每年的春节都让人兴高采烈，尤其是大年三十那晚，更是达到了高潮。

The Spring Festival lasts for 15 days, there would be starting on the first day, to the end of the January 15 Lantern Festival.it is the busiest time of the year for Chinese people. The arrangements they have to make for family reunions， buying necessities and preparing food keeps them busy throughout the holiday. Many of them travel back home and meet friends over dinner and drinks. The celebrations include decorating the house and setting off fireworks.But we are talking about a tradition that seems to be fading.

春节一共有15天，从大年初一开始，到元月十五元宵节这一天结束。在这段比较长的时间是中国人最忙的时候，他们为家庭聚会作安排，采购年货，准备丰盛的食物，以至于整个春节假期都忙忙碌碌的。许多人在春季期间都要回老家过年，跟朋友碰碰头，聚个餐。庆祝春节也包括大扫除和放烟火。但是我们现在要谈的是越来越淡的年味。

Spring Festival， as it is celebrated today， has undergone many changes， thanks to the country‘s economic development and globalization.

现在的春节已经因为我国经济的发展和全球化的影响而改变了很多。

Yet no Spring Festival is complete without food. People could not get good food whenever they desired in earlier times， something that does not apply to society today. More often than not， people faced the risk of famine. The best time for people to celebrate was when food was available in plenty， and that was possible in spring， or the beginning of the lunar new year. That was the main reason why Spring Festival acquired such great importance among Chinese people.

但是没有哪个春节是完全离得开“吃”的。从前，不论人们提前多久想要买年货，总是不能如愿，而现在早已今非昔比。过去常常还要闹饥荒。人们最好的庆祝时间就是他们能得到食物丰盛的时候，也就是春天或是元月初的那段时间。那也是为什么春节对于中国人如此重要的主要原因。

But three decades of economic growth has ensured that people in China， except for those who are still poor， can enjoy a good meal whenever they want. Such has been the change in people‘s fortune that some have to be treated for obesity and other health problems associated with excessive eating.

但是三十年来的经济发展已经让中国人，除了那些仍然穷苦的人以外，随时都能享受美食。这得益于人民财富的增长，但是后者也导致一些人吃得太多而受到肥胖威胁和健康问题。

In the past， celebrations were limited to events like song-and-dance duets in North China， dragon/lion dances in South China and fireworks， which required the joint efforts of the entire community. But economic development and urbanization seems to have weakened the social links among people. Many， especially those living in cities， are not interested in celebrating the festival with people they hardly know.

在过去，庆祝春节还只停留在北方的二人转和南方的舞龙舞狮等形式。那些庆祝活动往往需要许多人合力才能办得起来。但是经济的发展和国际化程度的提升似乎已经将这种社会联系弱化了。许多人，特别是城市居民，不太愿意与不相识的人一起共度春节。

Many customs associated with Spring Festival have changed， too. In the past， people used to visit relatives and friends with gifts and lots of good wishes. Today， many people， especially the youth， use their cell phones or the Internet to send their good wishes and even "gifts" to their relatives and friends. Some may say this a sign that people have become less caring about their near and dear ones， but we should see this development as a time- and energy-saving exercise granted by the information age.

与春节相关的许多习俗也被改变了。在过去，人们常常会带着礼物走亲访友，互道祝福。今天许多人，特别是年轻人，用手机或是网络向亲朋好友发去“礼物”和祝福。有些人或许会说，这说明人们已经没有那么关心至爱亲朋了，但是我们应该把这种变化看作信息化时代省钱省力的好办法。

In recent times， many people have started praying for a career promotion or more money instead of invoking God or the Buddha for a healthy and long life and the welfare of their family. But the number of such people is decreasing now， which shows that people are becoming more reasonable.

最近几年，许多人开始祈祷事业高升，财源滚滚，而不是求神拜佛，他们身体健康，长命百岁，家庭美满。但是这样的人数现在正在减少，说明人们开始变得更加理性。

New Year is coming, and drew a satisfactory full stop last year, and the New Year will start again.

A to the twelfth month, every household will prepare necessities and supermarket goods fully, pay team as crowded as long.

Run the necessities and to clean again, dont pass any a corner, to get the things in the house spotless, meaning to sweep away the bad things, hope for the coming year jixiangruyi, everything.

In the evening, the family sit together to eat a big table is rich and delicious food. The symbol of the New Year eating not sorrow to wear.

I dont see any fireworks? "Bang" fireworks into the dark sky, while the day have to be with brightness, "petals" with the sky. Does the sky is not the most beautiful New Years eve?

The twinkling of an eye to the end of February, the adults to work, the work to go to school children to school, people working toward the goal.

新的一年到了，去年画上了一个圆满的句号，而新的一年又将开始了。

一到腊月，每家每户都要预备年货，超市里的物品一抢而空，交费的队伍如长龙般拥挤。

办好年货，就要大扫除一遍，不放过任何一个角落，要把屋里的东西打扫得一尘不染，寓意要把不好的东西扫走，企盼来年吉祥如意，事事顺心。

腊月三十，男女老少都穿上了新衣服，门外已经贴上了红红的对联。这天每个人除非万不得已，一定要回家吃团圆饭。晚上，一家人坐在一起吃一大桌丰富而美味的饭菜。这象征这新的一年里不愁吃不愁穿。

吃了饭，大家坐在一起边看春晚，边聊聊近年来的情况，屋里洋溢着大家的笑声。“爆竹声中一岁除，春风送暖入屠苏”咦?怎么没有烟花呢?“砰”绚丽的烟花飞入了漆黑的天上，霎时间天被照得通亮，“花瓣”似的洒满天空。难道除夕夜的天空不是最美丽的吗?

大年初一大家都在休息，到处都很安静。直到初三那天，大人们又忙了起来，他们要去亲戚朋友家拜年。小孩们更高兴，因为可以得到很多压岁钱。

一眨眼就到了二月底了，大人们该上班的上班，小孩该上学的上学，人们又向目标奋斗努力。

In the year of the festival, my favorite is the Spring Festival.

Each to the twelfth lunar month twenty-three, everyone began to prepare for the special purchases for the Spring Festival street, huge crowds of people, an inattentive may in the sea to find the Northwest southeast.

Its a really lively new years Eve. Night every household had to wear new clothes, the door was attached to the red antithetical couplet, on New Years Eve, every family lights all night, firecrackers and continue to work outside people unless they have to rush back to cannot but, from thousands of miles to eat reunion dinner. One family sit together to chat, watch the Spring Festival Gala, the time in the laughter quietly slipped away, "Dong" "boom" "boom" "boom" clock, 12, everybody went to bed, lively atmosphere suddenly become quiet, everyone enter sweet dreams.

In addition, in addition to a couple days, we are going to relatives and friends home with relatives pay New Years call, not only can eat a lot of delicious food, can also receive gift money, this is the part I love, gift money can not only buy Stationery, can also go to buy toys, hand you always wanted ornaments, pendants and so on......

The Lantern Festival is listed, and a climax to the Spring Festival, the lunar January fifteen, everywhere decorated, very prosperous. In the evening, I had a few small partners and slipped into the street. Ah! Its the ocean of the light. There are many lights, the peacock lights, the lotus lights, the tiger lights... It is so beautiful! At this moment, I seem to have entered a colorful world of fairy tales.

In the blink of an eye, it was nineteen on the first month. The students should go to school, the adults went to work, and everything returned to the past calm.
