一阵噼里啪啦的鞭炮声传来，空气中弥漫着烟火的气息，一年一度的春节又来到了。一大早，妈妈就在厨房忙个不停，我决定去街上转转。

啊/每条大街小巷，都有那么多五颜六色的身影在晃动，像一条彩色的河欢快地流淌着，前不见头，后不见尾。

在热闹的超市里，各色精美的糖果和售货员亲切的笑容融为一体，使人赏心悦目。顾客们抱着大包小包拥挤着走出超市，个个脸上挂着笑容，心里淌着蜜。家家户户都清扫了房屋和庭院，贴上了春联，年画，到处焕然一新。

啊，除夕之夜终于来临了/全镇各处都张灯结彩，有的地方横着竖着挂着五色的灯串，有的地方放着五光十色的烟花，还有的地方一群群穿着漂亮的孩子在尽情的玩耍。

当悠扬的钟声响过12下，大街小巷上鞭炮齐鸣;“二踢脚”腾空而起，“钻天猴”呼啸着蹿入夜空。夜空星光闪耀，节日的礼花五彩缤纷，地上欢声笑语，欢乐的人们三五成群。如炒豆般的鞭炮响过以后，人们拥到街头互相拜年，“祝您长寿/”“祝您春节愉快/”这些话语随着人们的欢声笑语，随着不时响起的鞭炮声飞出了大街小巷，飘荡在节日的夜空中。

今天在大街上走，俩个小伙子放炮，现在的炮和过去不同，过去炮是向上窜，现在是满地跑。他们放的炮差点窜到我的脸上，亏我手快，用包挡了一下。我不高兴的对他们说，”你们怎么在这里放炮!“他们立即回道，”你管的着吗，不在这里放还能在家放?“我回一句，”你就应该在家放，这样不会伤害他人，你们也能看的仔细。“ ”大过年的，你找不痛快怎的，你听了我的炮声，我还没找你付一半的炮钱呢!“哎，今天我碰到硬茬了!

说到qq，大家肯定都不陌生，它是一种方便的聊天工具，但是网络是把双刃剑一头是好，一头是坏，今天我就来说说qq的好处与坏处吧!

qq的好处十分的多，它可以很方便聊天，不像电话和手机那样聊天，只能听见对方的语言。它即能听见声言又能看见对方的影像，真是又方便，又快捷呀!再有，它还可以在电脑上玩一些小游戏，比如“qq农场”“红警之战”……真是又可以聊天又可以娱乐呀。

在说一说qq的坏处吧!qq现在有一种黄钻。蓝钻。绿钻和vlp。有些骗子会乘虚而入，在网上时不时有人会让你加好友，后又将你的手机号骗到手，把你的钱从卡里扣除，造成巨大财物损失。还有，它那上有许多大游戏，比如说逆战，穿越火线，英雄联盟等。这些游戏极具吸引力。它们虽然设制有防沉迷功能，但是经常不起作用。记得有一次，我一直沉迷于qq游戏，慢慢的，我学习成绩下降了，视力也慢慢地下降了，朋友渐渐离我而去。妈妈爸爸很担心我的学习，就把鼠标收了起来，让我好好学习。可是当爸爸妈码去上班了，我又偷偷将鼠标找了出来，重新回到了电脑上。进入到了电脑的世界，时间一点点过去，游戏里的防沉迷软件一次次的警告我，让我下线。可是我不光没有下线，还又玩了好长时间，等到爸妈下班回到家，我才停下。实事证明游戏会使人失去控制力。

qq是一种无线的网络工具，方便我们的生活，增添了生活的乐趣，同学们一定要合理的利用，让它成为我们的好帮手。

Therefore, every family to sit on this day liangzhaodeng not sleep, called "keep away evil spirits".The couple have a son in old age, as a baby.

In thirty years the night, they were afraid of the "evil spirit" to harm children, took eight coins to play with the kids. Children play tired to fall asleep, they put eight coins wrapped in red paper on the childs pillow below, the couple not sleep a wink. In the middle of the night the ghostly wind blowing open the door, blew out the lights," evil spirit" has just reached out to touch the childs head, the pillow will burst with flash, scared" evil spirit" and ran away. The very next day, the couple put eight coins wrapped in red paper scare, "evil spirit" and told everyone, after we learn to do, the children the world is at peace.The original eight coins is 0.08 change, the secret to protect the child. Because the "evil spirit" and "old" homophonic, then gradually evolved into" gift money".

关于压岁钱，有一个流传很广的故事。古时候，有一种小妖叫“祟”，大年三十晚上出来用手去摸熟睡着的孩子的头，孩子往往吓得哭起来，接着头疼发热，变成傻子。因此，家家都在这天亮着灯坐着不睡，叫做“守祟”。

有一家夫妻俩老年得子，视为心肝宝贝。到了年三十夜晚，他们怕“祟”来害孩子，就拿出八枚铜钱同孩子玩。孩子玩累了睡着了，他们就把八枚铜钱用红纸包着放在孩子的枕头下边，夫妻俩不敢合眼。半夜里一阵阴风吹开房门，吹灭了灯火，“祟”刚伸手去摸孩子的头，枕头边就迸发道道闪光，吓得“祟”逃跑了。第二天，夫妻俩把用红纸包八枚铜钱吓退“祟”的事告诉了大家，以后大家学着做，孩子就太平无事了。

原来八枚铜钱是八仙变的，暗中来保护孩子的。因为“祟” 与“岁”谐音，之后逐渐演变为“压岁钱”。

Advantages:

Will greatly save shopping time, while listening to light music enjoying the fun of shopping online. Moreover, gifts can also be sent to friends you want, directly from the Internet after ordering, you can send to your friends House.

Second, cargo than n. To give you a days time, you can only visit a dozen stores, but on the Web, you can search hundreds of shops in one hour. Find style is the same, while the most expensive of that House, you can place an order.

Disadvantages

A, such as physical and photos of the gap is too wide. Online shopping is only seeing the picture, to the arrival of goods in your hand, you will feel different from real. This is better to buy the rest assured in the Mall, because 100% is real.

Second, you need to add postage. In fact, this is not a disadvantage, because you need to go shopping is spending fare. Postage of online shopping it is quite cheap, but some shopkeepers are happy, willing to mail it for you, then you can even earn.

Third, not to try on. I never agreed with net purchase clothes and shoes. Because the clothes and shoes to try on yourself to know is that all right ~ if bought on the Internet are not appropriate, returns and more trouble to dropping said.

Fourth, network payment is not secure. Have heard people say Taobao, Alipay is vulnerable, so Ive always been shopping, saving into the Alipay, PayPal money is always empty in peacetime, huh. Not worry about rice is vulnerable, but everything be careful.

Probably more food is consumed during the New Year celebrations than any other time of the year.

Although the various ingredients in jai are root vegetables or fibrous vegetables, many people attribute various superstitious aspects to them.

尽管春卷里的配料都只是根菜或粗纤维蔬菜，许多人还是把各种迷信方面的事归于它们

Other foods include a whole fish, to represent togetherness and abundance, and a chicken for prosperity.

用其他食物，包括一整条鱼，来代表团圆和富饶，或一只鸡来代表兴旺

The chicken must be presented with a head, tail and feet to symbolize completeness. Noodles should be uncut, as they represent long life.

这只鸡必须要有头有胃还有脚来象征完整。面则不能被切断，因为他们代表了长寿

In south China, the favorite and most typical dishes were nian gao, sweet steamed glutinous rice(糯米)pudding and zong zi (glutinous rice wrapped up in reed(芦苇)leaves), another popular delicacy.

在南方，最受喜爱和具代表性的食物是用甜糯米捏成的年糕，另一道受欢迎的美食是用芦苇包上糯米作成的粽子。

除夕晚上，我和妈妈商量晚上能不能去张睿祺家看春节晚会，接着放炮。妈妈同意了，在姥姥家吃完年夜饭，全家人围着电视看节目，我不停地催着妈妈走，快十点了妈妈终于骑着电动车带我出发了。

来到张睿祺家，刚一进门热情好客的阿姨便拿出许多好吃的来招待我们，我们一边看春节晚会一边叙旧聊天。

到了晚上十二点了，就听见外面“嗖、啪、轰”地响成了一片。再一看，东南西北到处都闪耀着各种花炮的亮光。各种不同形状的花炮在天空中争奇斗艳，好像春天里开放的鲜花迎接着新年的到来。这时我们也迫不及待的拿着事先准备好的炮下楼去放了。

我先拿出一枚糖果炮，刚一点燃顿时金光四溢，犹如一位清秀的姑娘。那金光，仿佛是一件进金色的纱衣披在了姑娘身上，姑娘不停的旋转着，既照亮了自己又照亮了别人。

接着我们又放了许多花炮，降落伞、满天星、菊花盛开、蝴蝶王等等。最后我们一起点燃了礼炮，“嗖、嗖、嗖、嗖”伴随着四声清脆的响声，烟花先在空中拖着一条美丽的长尾巴上升到高空，接着是“嘭、嘭、嘭、嘭”四声沉闷的爆炸声，朵朵礼花在空中绽放。有的好像盛开的菊花；有的好像一群五颜六色的利剑刺向天空；有的好像一群小星星，然后慢慢变成绚丽色彩的线慢慢落下来；有的好像五颜六色的花朵飞向天空，好像仙女散花似的。五彩缤纷的烟花在天空中争奇斗艳。天空顿时成了大花园。每一朵礼花绽放时，我们都会发出惊喜的欢呼声。我们围着五彩的焰火又蹦又跳，高兴的心情也好像焰火一样热烈而多彩！

我们用焰火迎来了20xx年，希望我们的生活，成绩也好像炮声一样红红火火。

Gorky said: "the book is the ladder of human progress, says the book in a profound connotation of" French philosopher barrow, have experience greatly, and said, "a love of reading people, surely he will not lack a loyal friend, a good teacher, a lovely partner, a profound and complicated comfort", all revealed the essence of reading.

First of all, reading is not normally read in generalities, but read. By reading, analysis of the center of the material to express, to reveal the truth; By reading, find out the most of the material can induce feeling aspect, and point; By reading, realize the author want to express thoughts and feelings, try to make their feelings resonate with works, this is the understanding.

Is not light reading can understand, but to really achieve the above points. Some books, we are not interested in it, also cant realize the true meaning of it. So, we want to make a commitment when we read a book, find fun, it can study to achieve the best effect. "Its own gold room in the book, the book has its own treasure to." The benefits of reading are well known, but that is a good book, but our life is not only a good book, choose what book is also an important link, so we not only better reading, also want to read good books.

高尔基说：“书，是人类进步的阶梯，一语道出了书的深刻内涵”法国哲学家巴罗深有体会地说：“一个爱读书的人，他必定不会缺少一个忠实的朋友，一个良好的导师，一个可爱的伴侣，一个幽婉的安慰者”，这全部道出了读书的真谛。

首先，读书不是平时泛泛地朗读，而是阅读。通过读，分析材料要表达的中心，揭示的道理;通过读，找出材料中最能诱发感慨的方面，及感点;通过读，体会作者要表达的思想感情，尽量使自己的感情与作品产生共鸣，这就是所谓的理解。

并不是光读书就能理解，而是要真正做到以上几点。有些书，我们对它不感兴趣，也是不能体会到它的真谛。所以，我们读书时要全身心的投入道书里，找到乐趣，这才能达到读书最好的效果。“书中自有黄金屋，书中自有颜如玉。”读书的好处是众所周知的，可是那是针对好书来说的，可是我们的生活中并不是只有好书的，选什么书也是一个重要的环节，正所谓我们不仅要好读书，也要读好书。读书要与生活相结合，落实到生活中去，不能光纸上谈兵，这也是读书的必要条件。

这些就是我积累的读书心得，希望我在将来的读书生涯中有所帮助，让我们在知识的海洋里尽情遨游!

On the eve of the new year, everyone is enjoying the delicious new years Eve dinner, setting off firecrackers and giving gifts, but they once thought of wasting, so there was a waste in the new year.

This is the result I had to ask my mother once. At the time of the new year, we all eat up the stomach, but there are many more meals to go to sleep. When you get up in the kitchen in the morning, you cant see their shadows again. I ran to ask mother, mother said: “ those ah, all I fell off, you have to eat me to cook. ” Im puzzled that mom is usually very frugal, so how to waste it this time! So, I found the phenomenon of waste in the New Year!

Students, know Li Shenyou a poem “ who knows the dish, the grain is hard ”? These waste of food enough to eat for many days, this is by how many sweat, I believe that many families have been such a phenomenon!

And the fireworks, and dont see it as beautiful when it is launched. In fact, it contains a lot of harmful substances to the human body, and it will also cause pollution to the environment. Some people also buy fireworks and do not put it, is it a very waste of money? The right amount of fireworks is good, not too much!

There is a gift, we will send in at present, if every day stopping, not every day to send a gift? Its a lot of money and a lot of wrapping paper.

There is a lot of waste, I dont say it, we dont waste, a happy year!

Waking up on New Year, everybody dresses up. First they extend greetings to their parents. Then each child will get money as a New Year gift, wrapped up in red paper. People in northern China will eat jiaozi, or dumplings, for breakfast, as they think "jiaozi" in sound means "bidding farewell to the old and ushering in the new". Also, the shape of the dumpling is like gold ingot from ancient China. So people eat them and wish for money and treasure.

Southern Chinese eat niangao (New Year cake made of glutinous rice flour) on this occasion, because as a homophone, niangao means "higher and higher, one year after another." The first five days after the Spring Festival are a good time for relatives, friends, and classmates as well as colleagues to exchange greetings, gifts and chat leisurely.

China has 56 ethnic groups. Minorities celebrate their Spring Festival almost the same day as the Han people, and they have different customs.

今天是除夕，我们小区可热闹了。家家户户都贴上了新奉陪，特别喜庆。我不禁想起了苏轼的《元日》，”千门万户瞳瞳日，总把新桃换旧符。“

小区里鞭炮声不绝于耳，就像在锅里炒芝麻，噼里啪啦响个不停。

傍晚，我和爸爸一起到小区的广场上放鞭炮，庆祝春节。我们来到小广场，已经有很多人在那里放炮，我先点燃了一个”蝴蝶王“，一只轻盈美丽的蝴蝶飞向天空，留下了五彩的痕迹。大家突然欢呼起来，几条金色的”蛇“划破天空直冲云霄，不知是谁点燃了金蛇狂舞的烟花，几条金蛇在天空相互缠绕，照亮了夜空十分美丽。接着，我又放了一个”七仙女“，随着一声巨响，七位仙女升上了天空，伴随着青烟，仙女就像真的一样，大家对此赞叹不已。这时，又有人点燃了大地红，炮声响彻云霄……

快八点了，大家都兴高采烈地回家去看春节晚会，我也和家人一起围在电视机前边吃糖果边看春晚，好不快乐。之后，我在想，虽然放鞭炮很好玩，但是我们要尽量少放，来保护我们的环境。
