中国春节英语作文带翻译【汇集20篇】

The Lunar New Year is now popularly known as the Spring Festival because it starts from the Begining of Spring . 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 , was originally 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 did swallow many of the beasts of prey on earth that also harassed people and their domestic animals from time to time.

After that, the old man disappeared riding the beast Nian. He turned out to be an immortal god. Now that Nian is gone and other beasts of prey are also scared into forests, people begin to enjoy their peaceful life. Before the old man left, he had told people to put up red paper decorations on their windows and doors at each year s end to scare away Nian in case it sneaked back again, because red is the color the beast feared the most.

From then on, the tradition of observing the conquest of Nian is carried on from generation to generation. The term Guo Nian , which may mean Survive the Nian becomes today Celebrate the Year as the word guo in Chinese having both the meaning of pass-over and observe . The custom of putting up red paper and firing fire-crackers to scare away Nian should it have a chance to run loose is still around. However, people today have long forgotten why they are doing all this, except that they feel the color and the sound add to the excitement of the celebratio

The Spring Festival is a Chinese festival. It has a long history and splendid culture. And the Spring Festival many small rules superstition is that the man.

Everyone should know the Spring Festival is one of important thing is - is available. You dont look down upon this thing it is to have cultured. Able to use fruit cannot careless, for example, not all fruits are fit to worship ancestors and gods. To choose a good fruit. Such as: apple, go in peace, oranges, kumquat oh, oranges - horse. Like a pear, can not as a tribute because there are some who think the pear and "from" are homophones ghost word. So is not popular. There is a banana -. So some fruit can not be available.

Fruit is only part of the tribute and dumplings as a tribute must put cant alone in pairs. Put the sugar when it as a tribute for hard candy cant fudge. Because such sweet hard enough will not spread.

Able to have the red candle, touch paper, incense, and so on, but the most important thing is that touch paper, touch paper had been pressed to be real money to burn, and the head of the press, which may be felt more sincere.

Whether these are real or fake, but at least be ancestors had relished the reason why there must be it. The little common sense in the hope that the Spring Festival can let more after 80, 90 after they know the Spring Festival in our Chinese mind how important. If no taboo Spring Festival also means there is no so many people pay attention to it. Rules more can reflect the significance of the Spring Festival.

春节是中国人的重大节日。它有着悠久的历史和灿烂的文化底蕴。而春节的许多小规矩小迷信也那么那人探寻。

大家都应该知道春节很重要的一件事情就是——上供。大家可别小看了这件事情这可是有讲究的。例如，上供用的水果不能马虎，不是所有的水果都适合去供奉祖先和神灵的。要选着寓意好的水果。例如：苹果——平平安安，桔子——金桔满堂，橙子——心想事成。像梨，就不可以作为贡品因为有一部分人认为梨和“离”是同音别字。所以不受大家欢迎。还有就是香蕉——焦头烂额。所以有些水果不能上供。

水果只是一部分贡品还有就是饺子作为贡品一定要成双成对的放不能落单。把糖作为贡品上供的时候要放硬糖不能放软糖。因为这样的甜蜜够硬不会散。

上供还要有红烛，火纸，佛香等等，不过最重要的是火纸，火纸要被真钱压过才可以烧，而且要一家之主压，这可能是觉得更加真诚吧。

不管这些是真是假，但至少被老祖宗们津津乐道就一定有它的原因。希望这些春节中的小常识可以让更多的80后，90后们知道春节在我们中国人心目中有多么的举足轻重。如果春节没有任何禁忌那么也就代表没有那么多人关注它。规矩越多越能体现春节的重大意义。

Chinese New Year starts with the new moon on the first day of the new year

and ends on the the full days later. In china,people regard Spring Festival as

the most important thing.People studied and worked throughout the year.No matter

how far and how busy, they must do their best to go back home.Thats a tradition

and now becoming a habit. During this time,transport is extremely busy.Although

the way is difficult,it cant reduce the urgent feeling of going home.I cant

describe this feeling,only the people that experienced it can

understand.Actually,on one hand,people miss their family,and they need to get

comfort in the family.On the other hand,getting together is a symbol of

blessedness and auspiciousness.People in other country dont have this

consciousness that going home is necessary.For example,American could celebrate

the Christmas in everywhere they like or with anybody.This diversity is

occasioned by different culture between two countries.

On Spring festivals eve,the whole family prepare the dinner.Of

course,dumplings is essential.In the

evening,family members always sit at the television and watch Spring

Festival Gala.At 0:00,people set off firecrackers and fireworks,at the same

time,children pay New Year,s call to old people.The old people give money to the

children as a lunar new year gift.Usually,people stay up late or all night.

On lunar New Years Day, the Chinese family eat vegetarian dumplings which

imply they will plain and neat in this year. People change their new

clothes,this stands for a new beginning.Next,people visit relatives with some

gifts.The second day is son-in-laws festival,the husband and married women

visit their side of the family.In a word,Chinese attach great importance to

Spring Festival.

盼呀盼，盼呀盼，终于盼来了大年三十，我们一家到小阿姨家过年。

傍晚厨房里传来一支无人指挥的交响曲，那是大人们在里面烧菜。我们小孩呢?全有客厅愉快地玩着呢。

到了吃年夜饭的时候，我坐上椅子一看，哇!好丰盛哦!有鱼、有虾、有肉、还有……，简直看得我眼花缭乱，多得连我数都数不清，干脆不数了，放开肚皮好好吃吧。

吃完饭，我们拿着烟花来到楼下空地上放，真漂亮的烟花，有的像柳枝，有的像菊花，有的像喷泉，五颜六色，千姿百态，美得我无法形容，我的眼睛都忙不过来，真恨不得自己能多长只眼睛，这烟花也真是的一瞬间就消失了，且再也找不到她的倩影。这多像我们手里的时间，虽然时间也掌握在我们手里，如果我们稍有疏忽，这么宝贵的时间也会象美丽的烟花一样消失的无影无踪。当新年来临时我们得好好珍惜时间哦。

后来春节晚会开始了，一个个节目引人入胜，最吸引我的是吉祥三宝，演员那清脆优美的歌声使我如入仙境。特别是歌词也很有意义。

“当当当”新年钟声敲响了，我们小孩子纷纷向大人们拜年，大人们纷纷拿出压岁钱为我们压岁。我们也高高兴兴地接受了，临睡前我一清点，收获还真不少，我得了700元压岁钱呢，我发财了。于是我在笑声中睡去，在睡梦中进入新年的时光。在梦里我用得到的压岁钱去买了艘宇宙飞船，飞向太空去，就在快要追上费俊龙叔叔驾驶的“神六”时，忽然被小阿姨叫醒，让我吃新年第一餐发财茶。唉，真可惜。只有等来年再说吧。我急忙起床，吃茶吃早饭，新年第一天还有更好玩的东西等着我呢，不能错过哦。

Where There is Life, There is Music

What is music, no one can explain.

Just imagine for a moment that you are sitting in a magnificent concert

hall. The conductor waves his shiny baton with a graceful swing through the air.

A beautiful melody floats slowly around you

You sit quietly with your eyes shut, your heart open. The delicate vibratos

of the violins carry you to a mood of heavenly bliss. An airy solo of the flute

draws you to the imagination, the notes flow like some jumping swallows dancing

and singing calling for the coming of Spring.

I like music from my childhood. My father often says when I was a baby I

would never go to sleep without soft, beautiful lullabies crooning around my

ears . Now music is a part of my life. When I feel tired, disappointed or in low

spirits, I usually turn to music. Music, nothing but only music can have so

wonderful an effect on my heart, on my pond of feeling.

Music comes with us. Where there is life, there is music. Where there is

music, there is hope. It lies in everyday life, in everyone’s life, in

everything we see, in everything we hear-- in the rhythm of the sea, in the

whisper of a gentle wind, in the melody of a bird’s singing, in the harmony of

village chimes. You can hear music wherever you may go . A man who doesn’t know

music will lose half the world. A nation that pays little or no attention to

music will be a sad nation. A world without music would be the one for the dead

and devils.

So dear friends, let’s open our arms to embrace music and enjoy it

throughout our lives. Love music and love life.

Thank you.

哪里有生活，哪里就有音乐

音乐是什么，无人能解释清楚。

想象此刻你正坐在富丽堂皇的音乐大厅里，乐队指挥手中的闪闪发亮的指挥棒在空中优雅的舞动。悠扬悦耳的音调飘扬在你的周围。

静静地闭上双眼，敞开心扉。小提琴精妙的振颤会把你带入到天堂祈福的心境;大提琴微弱低沉的叹息会使你想起一位老人在风中散步，沉浸在童年时代宁静和挚爱的回忆中;长笛轻快的独奏使你从想象中猛醒;流畅的音符像一群飞舞歌唱的燕子在呼唤春天的来临。

从童年时代音乐就是我的挚爱。父亲经常说，我在襁褓中，没有温柔甜美的摇篮曲在耳边低吟，就难以入眠。现在音乐是我生活的一部分。每当我感到疲倦，失望或情绪不振时，我就求助于音乐。音乐，除了音乐，没有什么对我的身心和情感有如此奇妙的影响。

音乐与我们同在，哪里有生活，哪里就有音乐;哪里有音乐，哪里就有希望。它存在于每个人的日常生活，存在于我们耳闻目睹的一切事物之中;存在于海的波涛，清风细语，悦耳鸟鸣，和谐的乡村钟声之中;无论你身在何处，都会听到音乐。一个不了解音乐的人将失去半个世界。一个不重视音乐的民族将是一个悲哀的民族。一个没有音乐的世界将是逝者和恶人生存的世界。

亲爱的朋友，让我们伸开双臂去拥抱音乐，在人生中享受音乐的乐趣。热爱音乐，热爱生活。

谢谢大家。

The Spring Festival春节

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.

To the ordinary Chinese, the festival actually begins on the eve of the lunar New Year’s Day and ends on the fifth day of the first month of the lunar calendar. But the 15th of the first month, which normally is called the Lantern Festival, means the official end of the Spring Festival in many parts of the country.

Dear Jim,

亲爱的吉姆，

Last Sunday my classmates and I went to Xiangshan Park.

上周日我和我的同学去了香山公园。

We met at 7 oclock at the school gate. The weather in Beijing that day was great. At around 8 oclock, we arrived at Xiangshan Park. There is a high tree on the bottom of the hill. We had a party and played games under the tree. Then we climbed to the top of Xiangshan Mountain. It was not very difficult for us to do it. Next, we had lunch at the top of the hill. It was delicious. After lunch, we saw some birds. They were friendly. And we saw a whole picture of Beijing. "What a beautiful city!" I said. At that moment, we all felt so proud. I live in Beijing now. The 2008 Olympic games was held here.

我们七点在校门口集合。那天北京的天气很好。八点左右，我们就抵达香山公园。在山脚下有一棵高高的树。我们在树下开了一个聚会，玩游戏。然后我们爬上香山的山顶。对我们来说并不是很难。接下来，我们在山顶上吃午饭。很美味。午饭后，我们看见了一些鸟。它们很友好。我们看到了北京的全貌。”真是一个美丽的城市!”我说道。在那一刻，我们都感到非常的骄傲。我现在住在北京。2008届奥运会将在这里举行。

在中国,凡逢春节和其他的喜庆日子,人们总要燃放爆竹来表示庆贺.燃放爆竹可以说是中国民间一个十分重要的风俗习惯.

爆竹也叫"炮竹","爆仗","炮仗",平常人们更习惯叫"鞭炮",有大约2000多年的历史了.最早的爆竹叫"庭燎".是用竹竿一类的东西做成火炬,燃烧时发出噼噼啪啪的爆裂声,也叫"爆竿.

燃放爆竹风俗最早起因于驱鬼除邪,祈求一年的吉祥顺利.传说,有个叫做"山臊"的四角怪兽和恶鬼平常藏在深山,每隔365天便出来伤害人畜.这些无恶不做的坏东西害怕爆炸的声音和亮光.于是,每到岁末年首,人们就争着燃放鞭炮,用来驱赶"山臊"和恶鬼.

中国的唐代发明火药以后,人们便把火药放进竹筒,点燃后发出巨大的声音,这种爆竹叫做"爆竹筒".到了宋代,爆竹的制作方法改为把火药装进用纸卷成的筒里,名字也叫爆竹了.后来人们开始把许多小的炮仗用药线连接起来,成为"一发连百余响不绝"的鞭炮.讲究的鞭炮用红颜色的纸制作,鞭炮爆炸后,红屑满地,人称"满地红",表示吉利.随着发展,鞭炮的品种和色彩也由原来的单调发展得丰富多彩,有小鞭炮,电光雷,母子雷,射天炮,百头,千头鞭,甚至还有几万头长的鞭炮.

现在,随着人们环保意识的加强,燃放鞭炮的习俗在中国很多大城市中受到禁止.但是,聪明的中国人依然想出了其他热闹的庆祝节日的办法.
