今天是端午节，是我国的传统节日。

今天早晨，妈妈早早的就起床了，她去了菜市场，买回来一些粽叶、肉、蜜枣、和糯米。妈妈一回到家，先把粽叶用开水烫一下，然后把蜜枣、肉和糯米放在一个锅里，再把一些酱油倒入锅里，紧接着把它们拌在一起，馅便做好了，这些准备工作做好之后，妈妈便开始包粽子了。只见妈妈不慌不忙的拿起几片粽叶，圈成一个类似圆锥的形状，接着放一些馅在里面，然后再用一片粽叶包起来，最后用一根线扎起来，这样，一个粽子便包好了。我学着妈妈的样子也包起粽子来。粽子包好了，妈妈立刻把粽子放在锅里煮，过了不久，粽子煮好了，妈妈拿起一只粽子，剥开粽叶，细细地品尝，我看着妈妈脸上的表情，忍不住笑了，妈妈见了，被我搞得丈二和尚——摸不着头脑，但看我开心的样子也笑了。

这一天，人们不光吃粽子，还赛龙舟，插艾青……这都是过端午节的风俗习惯，据说都是为了纪念爱国英雄屈原的。

今天我度过了一个快乐的端午节。

愚人节也称万愚节，英文为April Fools Day。是西方也是美国民间传统节日，节期在每年四月一日。愚人节已出现了几百年，对于它的起源众说纷纭。一种说法认为这一习俗源自印度的"诠俚节"。该节规定，每年三月三十一日的节日这天，不分男女老幼，可以互开玩笑、互相愚弄欺骗以换得娱乐。

April Fools day, also known as the All Fools day, English as April Fools Day. The west is also American traditional folk festivals, the festival on April 1st. April Fools day has been there for hundreds of years, Public opinions are divergent. its origin. An argument that this practice originated in India, "Li Quan festival". The provisions of the section, the annual festival on March 31st that day, regardless of men and women,old and young, can each make fun of each other, the fool fool for entertainment.

起初，任何美国人都可以炮制骇人听闻的消息，而且不负丝毫的道德和法律责任，政府和司法部门也不会追究。相反，谁编造的谎言最离奇、最能骗取人们相信，谁还会荣膺桂冠。这种做法给社会带来不少混乱，因而引起人们的不满。现在，人们在节日期间的愚弄欺骗已不再像过去那样离谱，而是以轻松欢乐为目的。

At first, the Americans can be cooked any news of the frightful to the ear, but not negative the slightest moral and legal responsibility, the government and the judiciary will not be prosecuted. On the contrary, who fabricated lies the most bizarre, most people believe that fraud, who will receive the laurel crown. This approach has brought a lot of confusion to the society, thus caused dissatisfaction. Now, people during the holiday season the fool fool has no longer as outrageous, but for the purpose of easy pleasure.

今天，愚人节已经发展成为一个国际性节日，差不多在整个欧洲和北美都流行。苏格兰称这一天的受骗者为"布谷鸟"，似乎和农业女神仍有些关系。法国人则叫作"四月鱼"这大概是因为小鱼在四月刚孵出，糊里糊涂地见饵就吞，容易上钩的缘故吧!

Today, April Fools day has become an international holiday almost throughout Europe and North America are popular. Scotland called the day of the fool is the "cuckoo", appears and the goddess of agriculture still has some relation. The French were called "April fish" this is probably because the fish just hatched in April, see bait swallowing in disorderly fashion, easy. Because of it!

屈原的故乡在哪里？当然是我的故乡——湖北，也就是战国时期的楚国。

每年农历五月初五是湖北武汉人特别重视的节日——端午节。为什么武汉人这么看重这个节日？爱国诗人屈原在家乡听到秦军进兵楚国的消息，悲愤交加，投江自尽，为国捐躯。这一天是农历五月初五。楚国人民永远记得他。每年的这一天，他们都会把粽子扔到汨罗江里喂鱼。他们不希望屈原的身体受到任何伤害。因此，有一个定制粽子。

买些鲜竹叶，糯米，加些红豆沙，大枣，烧鸡，蛋黄，绿豆等。，你就可以开始做了。通常全家人都会像过年一样围坐在一起打包。先把竹叶包成三角形，有点像漏斗，再往漏斗里放一把糯米，然后塞一个红色的蜜枣。最后用藤条把三角形牢牢绕几圈，就完事了。别看这个粽子。步骤不多。真的很难做到。新手扎不牢，不然“漏斗”会漏米，要下大力气让包装好看。把包好的粽子小心翼翼地放进锅里，很快你就会闻到一股浓浓的竹叶拌米饭的香味，弥漫整个厨房。奶奶召集大家围坐在餐桌旁，然后解开粽子的藤条，剥下叶子，闪闪发光的“红白宝石”在灯光下晶莹剔透。我迫不及待的咬了一大口，满满的甜香。我自己做的，但是味道不一样。感觉比我外面卖的香。

“来吧！加油！”“嘿哟！哎！”这不是龙舟赛吗？每年武汉的端午节，社团都会组织一些壮汉来比赛划龙舟。就我记忆所及，黎明时分石桥人头攒动，邻居们早早等着给赛龙舟队员加油，哪怕站上几个小时，也从来不会太累。看，龙舟正经过。第一艘龙舟飞快地划向我们，都是皮肤黝黑的大个子，动作整齐划一。平静的水面瞬间被他们的桨溅到，每个队员都大汗淋漓，和身上的河水混在一起，分不清是水还是汗。我对他们的划船技术感到惊讶，没有时间欢呼。龙舟瞬间经过石桥，向远处跑去...

当然，武汉端午节的习俗可以不止于此:有的人会把大蒜和鸡蛋一起煮，当早餐吃；有的人会给孩子一个香囊，据说有辟邪的意思；有些人挂钱包，系吉祥的五色丝线...这样的习俗数不胜数。

粽子叶的香味飘荡在我的鼻子里，赛龙舟的叫声萦绕在我的耳边，五彩的丝线点缀着我多彩的生活。武汉端午节的传统文化会代代相传。

Before I went to middle school, I lived with my grandparents. At that time,

I stayed in the country, which was the most beautiful place for me. Early in the

morning, I walked along the country road, appreciating the fresh air. We raised

a little dog. He was my best friend, and he accompanied me all the time. No

matter what I did and where I went, the little dog was with me and I loved him

so much. Sometimes I would pick up the fruit in the garden, sometimes I would

catch the fish in the clear river. It was such a happy childhood for me that I

will never forget.

The generation gap refers to the difference in attitude toward thing or the

lack of understanding between young people and older folks.

In families as well as in society, the young and the older may not agree

with each other on this and that from time to time. Young people would llke to

make as much money as they could and spend as much money as they could earn

while older folks are easily satisfied with what they earn and save as much as

possible. Young people llke the exciting and deafening pop music while older

folks prefer melodious folk-songs or classic music. A boy and a glrl today may

fall in love with each other as quick as lightning, while their parents or grand

parents might trudge over a long distance before they kissed each other and

became lovers when they were young.

However, we should not be amazed at the generation gap,for it is quite

natural in the development of society. The world is a changing world, in which

everything keeps changing, generations of human beings included. And changes

lead to progress.

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.

Spring Festival is the most importantand popular festival in China.Before

Spring Festival ,the people usually clean and decorate their houses.And they go

to the Flower Fairs to buy some flowers.

During Spring Festival ,the adults usually give lucky money to

children.People often get together and have a big meal.Some people eat dumpling

for dinner.

春节，中国人最重要的节日。是中国最盛大、最热闹、最重要的一个古老传统节日，也是中国人所独有的节日。

节，是农历的岁首，春节的另一名称叫过年，是中国最盛大、最热闹、最重要的一个古老传统节日，也是中国人所独有的节日。是中华文明最集中的表现。自西汉以来，春节的习俗一直延续到今天。春节一般指除夕和正月初一。但在民间，传统意义上的春节是指从腊月初八的腊祭或腊月二十三或二十四的祭灶，一直到正月十五，其中以除夕和正月初一为高潮。如何过庆贺这个节日，在千百年的历史发展中，形成了一些较为固定的风俗习惯，有许多还相传至今。在春节这一传统节日期间，我国的汉族和大多数少数民族都有要举行各种庆祝活动，这些活动大多以祭祀神佛、祭奠祖先、除旧布新、迎禧接福、祈求丰年为主要内容。活动形式丰富多彩，带有浓郁的民族特色。2006年5月20日，“春节”民俗经国务院批准列入第一批国家级非物质文化遗产名录。

春节的来历有一种传说，中国古时候有一种叫“年”的怪兽，头长触角，凶猛异常。“年”长年深居海底，每到除夕才爬上岸，吞食牲畜伤害人命。因此，每到除夕这天，村村寨寨的人们扶老携幼逃往深山，以躲避“年”兽的伤害。有一年除夕，从村外来了个乞讨的老人。乡亲们一片匆忙恐慌景象，只有村东头一位老婆婆给了老人些食物，并劝他快上山躲避“年”兽，那老人捋髯笑道：“婆婆若让我在家呆一夜，我一定把‘年’兽撵走。”老婆婆仍然继续劝说，乞讨老人笑而不语。 半夜时分，“年”兽闯进村。它发现村里气氛与往年不同：村东头老婆婆家，门贴大红纸，屋内烛火通明。“年”兽浑身一抖，怪叫了一声。将近门口时，院内突然传来“砰砰啪啪”的炸响声，“年”浑身战栗，再不敢往前凑了。原来，“年”最怕红色、火光和炸响。这时，婆婆的家门大开，只见院内一位身披红袍的老人在哈哈大笑。“年”大惊失色，狼狈逃蹿了。第二天是正月初一，避难回来的人们见村里安然无恙十分惊奇。这时，老婆婆才恍然大悟，赶忙向乡亲们述说了乞讨老人的许诺。这件事很快在周围村里传开了，人们都知道了驱赶“年”兽的办法。(客家人的传说)从此每年除夕，家家贴红对联、燃放爆竹;户户烛火通明、守更待岁。初一一大早，还要走亲串友道喜问好。这风俗越传越广，成了中国民间最隆重的传统节日。

Do your teachers still use traditional techniques to teach you nowadays? A

revol- ution in teaching techniques is required now. In the past, we just took

it for granted that a teacher s aim was to teach the students all that he knew

and solve all the problems for them. Therefore, students could mot judge things

on their own under this circumstance. Thus students gradually lost the ability

to learn by themselves. In addition, they were only equipped with the knowledge

that were taught in class and made the same judgement upon every problem which

might crop up. Of course, they would find their knowledge not enough to solve

practical problems.

So it is time to change the teaching method. A teacher s goal is to help

the students develop not only the ability to learn by themselves but the skills

to make judgements on every aspect on their own. It s not necessary for the

students to turn to teachers for help while meeting with difficulties. The first

thing is to develop the students abilities to make sound judgements upon any

problem and overcome difficulties.

All in all, the aim of teaching is to liberate, but mot to fetter the

students innate powers of making sound judgements.

大家都知道端午节吗？那知道端午节要吃什么吗？知道为什么端午节吃粽子吗？知道端午节为什么要赛龙舟吗？知道端午节为什么要带五彩绳吗？那就让我为大家一一解说吧！

端午节是要吃粽子的，因为晋代，粽子被正式定为端午节食品。这时，包粽子的原料除糯米外，还添加中药益智仁，煮熟的粽子称“益智粽”。 时人周处《岳阳风土记》记载：“俗以菰叶裹黍米，……煮之，合烂熟，于五月五日至夏至啖之，一名粽，一名黍。”

南北朝时期，出现杂粽。米中掺杂禽兽肉、板栗、红枣、赤豆等，品种增多。粽子还用作交往的礼品。 到了唐代，粽子的用米，已“白莹如玉”，其形状出现锥形、菱形。日本文献中就记载有“大唐粽子”。宋朝时，已有“蜜饯粽”，即果品入粽。诗人苏东坡有“时于粽里见杨梅”的诗句。这时还出现用粽子堆成楼台亭阁、木车牛马作的广告，说明宋代吃粽子已很时尚。元、明时期，粽子的包裹料已从菰叶变革为箬叶，后来又出现用芦苇叶包的粽子，附加料已出现豆沙、猪肉、松子仁、枣子、胡桃等等，品种更加丰富多彩。

赛龙舟，是端午节的主要习俗。相传起源于古时楚国人因舍不得贤臣屈原投江死去，许多人划船追赶拯救。他们争先恐后，追至洞庭湖时不见踪迹。之后每年五月五日划龙舟以纪念之。借划龙舟驱散江中之鱼，以免鱼吃掉屈原的身体。竞渡之习，盛行于吴、越、楚。 其实 ，“龙舟竞渡”早在战国时代就有了。

在急鼓声中划刻成龙形的独木舟，做竞渡游戏，以娱神与乐人，是祭仪中半宗教性、半娱乐性的节目。 后来，赛龙舟除纪念屈原之外，在各地人们还付予了不同的寓意。中国古代崇拜五色，以五色为吉祥色 。因而，节日清晨，各家大人起床后第一件大事便是在孩子手腕、脚腕、脖子上拴五色线 。系线时，禁忌儿童开口说话。 五色线不可任意折断或丢弃，只能在夏季一场大雨或第一次洗澡时，抛到河里。 据说，戴五色线的儿童可以避开蛇蝎类毒虫的伤害；扔到河里，意味着让河水将瘟疫、疾病冲走，儿童由此可以保安康 。

孟元老的《东京梦华录》卷八记载：端午节物，百索、艾花、银样鼓儿，花花巧画扇，香糖果子、粽小，白团 。紫苏、菖蒲、木瓜、并皆茸切，以香药相和 ，用梅红匣子盛裹 。自五月一日及端午前一，日卖桃、柳、葵花、蒲叶、佛道艾 。 次日家家铺陈於门首，与五色水团、茶酒供养 。又钉艾人於门上，士庶递相宴赏。

看了这个粽子，你想吃吗？这就是端午节的一些风俗习惯，你们喜欢吗？

端午节到了，家家户户都包粽子，我们家当然也不例外。

这天一大早，我和妈妈就去菜市买包粽子的食材：瘦肉、糯米、稻草，新鲜的粽叶，剥了壳的干板栗。回到家，我们迫不及待地把干板栗和绿豆放到水里洗干净，再分别把它们和瘦肉捞在一起，接着放一点盐、味精、酱油，拌匀，馅就做好了。接着进入正题——包粽子喽!先把竹叶卷成圆锥状再放一点糯米，中间放馅，再放入糯米，然后将粽叶包好，最后用稻草绑住，就做成了一个三角粽。我越包越带劲，还给自己包了一个心形的粽子，我为自己的创新暗暗得意。把包好的粽子放到锅里，大概煮两个钟头，新鲜美味的粽子就可以出锅了。三角粽还可以做很多种口味的，如：豆沙馅的、香菇排骨馅的……也有什么馅都不放的，煮熟了蘸着蜂蜜或白糖吃也别有一番风味。

据说端午节包三角粽是为了纪念一位伟大的诗人——屈原。但我不赞成他为了爱国而自杀，因为生命永远是最宝贵的，活着可以为国家做更多有益的事情。

Teachers Day, September 10th, is a national teachers festival in China. It is celebrated since 1985. It expresses respects to the labors and contributions of teachers to the Chinese society.

The fifth day of May, is the Dragon Boat festival. When talking about the Dragon Boat Festival, I know that it is another name! As the Dragon Boat Festival, poet Festival, daughter festival.

端午节吃粽子是为了纪念古代诗人屈原的。屈原一生写了许许多多的着名诗篇，提出过许许多多爱国政治主张，但是楚王不采纳。最后，楚国国土被侵占，屈原满怀忧愤，跳江自尽。人们为了纪念他，祭奠他，在每年的这一天，就把粽子和许多的好吃的投到江里，目的是不让鱼儿吃屈原的尸体。

Finally, the land was occupied, Qu Yuan was indignant, jump into the river. In order to commemorate him, for he, on this day of the year, put the dumplings and a lot of good to Jiang Li, the purpose is not to let the fish eat Qus body.

端午节那天，我问妈妈粽子是怎么做的，妈妈说：“粽子是用翠绿、鲜嫩的芦苇叶包着雪白的糯米和蜜枣包的，如果没有蜜枣的话，可以用豆子等代替。熟它，需要煮一个晚上。煮熟以后，剥开变成墨绿色的芦苇叶，就可以看见洁白的糯米和枣团在里面，既好吃又甜，并且吃不腻。它既是开胃的美食，又是营养丰富的滋补品。

The day of the Dragon Boat Festival, I asked my mother how to do dumplings, mother said: "the dumplings are made of green, fresh white glutinous rice wrapped in reed leaves and prune packets, if not with words, can be replaced with beans. Well, it takes all night to cook. After cooked, peeled reed leaves into green, you can see the white glutinous rice and jujube group inside, both delicious and sweet, and do not eat greasy. It is not only an Food, is nutritious tonic.
